> Well, presumably you'd only get paid to not-drill if you otherwise had the drilling rights? So if you bought the rights to extract from an oil field in Alaska or the Gulf, you could get paid not to use them.

At least in the U.S., extraction operations are usually organized as LLPs--more specifically MLPs, where partnership stakes are publicly traded. This means anybody can easily acquire drilling or extraction rights with a simple online transaction, just like they can with corporate stock.[1] Whatever flaws a pay-to-abstain system has will be exploited at least as fast as any other easily exploited financial incentive scheme.

Even excluding publicly traded MLPs, the market for buying + selling partnership interests in drilling operations is remarkably liquid, at least in the U.S. and especially for long-established fields such as in Texas or California, which are perhaps the operations that could most easily exploit a pay-to-abstain incentive scheme by, e.g., overestimating their reserves. (New fields would be even easier to overestimate, but that could in large part be addressed by avoiding the scheme entirely and simply preventing extraction ahead time--e.g. by stopping the sale of Federal mineral rights, or using environmental laws to prohibit extraction, which is more easily done before an extraction operation is established.)

[1] The reason for this is various tax incentives which make direct ownership stakes and their passthrough income and deductions the most profitable investment structure. But the Schedule Ks are really annoying when doing your taxes. AFAIU an MLP is similar to an REIT (Real Estate Investment Trust), the purpose of which is also to provide an easily traded investment providing passthrough income and deductions. REITs have become notorious for effectively accelerating the exploitation of flawed real state regulations, policies, and taxation. They're not per se bad, but more efficient financial markets cuts many ways.
You'd come across as relaxed and confident, and probably stand a better chance of being hired as a result.
Everyone on twitter. Like 1/4th of my timeline for the past week has been people complaining that turbo won't complete code and instead returns things like "fill out the rest of the function yourself" or "consult a programming specialist for help on completing this section."
Yeah, I mean I personally do not like Airbnb, but I feel like the "large close friends/family" use case is the only reason to still use them. Sadly there isn't really a good alternative for that. If it's just me and my partner, I always use a hotel instead. No value in Airbnb for small parties, for many reasons like you mentioned.
I believe genset+motor is the implementation of some hybrid cars, possibly calling it a range extender. Some others have a combustion engine and motors attached to the same gearbox (iirc that's the Prius setup). However I'm not very clear on what non-marketing advantages there are supposed to be to having both petrol and lithium fuels on board.

When I was at Google, I talked to people who have worked at both.

The general gist of it was: while one got treated better at Google, you got more done -- and had more freedom to choose how to do it -- at Amazon. So depending on the team, potentially higher job satisfaction.

I don't know if that's still the case. Personally if I'm going to sell my soul and work on stuff which isn't my personal passion, it's going to go to the highest and best bidder... but I will admit after 10 years at Google, the slow pace and boredom got to me enough that I quit. Maybe I would not have done that if I'd felt more emotional attachment and productivity in my work, and maybe a place like Amazon could have provided that. But I've heard too many dark tales. (I sure miss that level of money.)
if you don't pass the PIP, you often get blacklisted and won't ever get hired again. so if you get another job and quit, say good bye. If the new company you work for get's acquired, you will be let go and won't be integrated back into the fold.
Can that be part of a multimodal language model to better understand and perform arithmetic operations, enhancing the LLMs numerical reasoning?
Bad liars seem to have difficulty with theory of mind. Sometimes ChatGPT comes across somewhat like this.
Stack ranking biggest flaw is that it results in managers gaming the system by over hiring to create strategic buffer ftes they can drop if they need to. Which leads to a reoccurring need to use stack ranking and more over hiring.
Ok, now that is a unique feature! Bringing that large library of extensions to a pretty locked down platform is definitely a selling point.

> Zero telemetry may not be a unique feature to you

Unique does not mean important. It means hard to find elsewhere. There are lots of browsers that have zero telemetry. Adding another one doesn't stand out. It can be an important feature of a browser but it alone won't bring many people to a new browser when they can get it elsewhere in a more established product.
To some degree it probably doesn't matter. If you send $ on carbon offsets that don't offset carbon, you're still imposing an extra cost on releasing carbon and thus incentivizing yourself to release less. Basically a self-imposed carbon tax.

Obviously it would be even better if the $ went to actual carbon sequestration, but the program would presumably work to some degree if you just gave the $ to some totally unrelated cause (which seems to be the solution UC has settled on).
I'm pretty sure only a tiny fraction of that comes from Spotify though.
I appreciate this paper for relatively clearly stating what "human-like" might entail, which in this case involves "reasoning about the causes behind other people's behavior" which is "critical to navigate the social world" as outlined in this citation:

I get frustrated often when people argue "well, it isn't really intelligent" and then give examples that are clearly dependent on our brain's chemical state and our bodies' existence in-the-physical-world.

I get the feeling that when/if we are all enslaved by a super-intelligent AI that we do not understand its motives, we will still argue that it is not intelligent because it doesn't get hungry and it can't prove to us that it has Qualia.

This paper argues that gpts are bad at understanding human risk/reward functions, which seems like a much more explicit way to talk about this, and also casts it in a way that could help reframe the debate about how human evolution and our physical beings might be significantly responsible for the structure of our rational minds.
The jobs find you once you’ve worked on a huge range of different problems. Elect yourself next time some obscure problems comes up at work or school or whatever and keep doing that.
Extremely cool that they were able to predict when to look for additional, undetected planets and then actually find them.

Also, despite being a huge nerd for astronomical scales, I'm still easily shocked at them. I didn't expect a system to exist with six (!) larger-than-Earth planets in stable sub-Mercury orbits around a sun-like star. My mind tells me there's not enough space, that they should be ripped apart by each other or the star. Yet it's actually one of the most peaceful, gentle systems we've ever found.
Oooh! Self-own! Those are rare!

Ah yes, sorry about that. I'll post as a regular submission.
yeah but none of those had happened yet at the time that this story is nominally set in

that said, if a dude is going around knocking over tables in the temple, proclaiming himself the king of israel (and in most versions also the sole begotten son of god himself), telling people influential religious authorities have everything backwards, supposedly raising the dead, telling rich people to give away all their possessions to the poor instead of giving their children an inheritance, etc., there's guaranteed to be a fair bit of persecution directed his way
Electric does have done advantages it also has a fairly massive ongoing reoccurring cost, the electric transmission and delivery systems are expensive and requires expensive skilled labor to maintain.

Gasoline and Diesel are miracles, they carry vast sums of energy for little very weight.

Rail moves vast sums of cargo on trips over 600 miles, if the cargo is going less than 600 miles, odds are it's on a truck, but for expedited delivery operations, long haul single driver freight loads have mostly vanished, that business goes by train then truck for the last mile.
Ask HN: What are some non-obvious ways you've used ChatGPT to improve your life?
Curious to see how others have leveraged ChatGPT in unique ways to support or enhance their daily routines (beyond the usual coding support etc).
Seeing multimillionaire corporations rip of the consumer is getting pretty old too.
In my opinion .NET is just not there yet. MAUI (the microsoft UI framework and Xamarin successor) does not support Linux or WASM and the main alternatives Uno Platform and Avalonia UI that do support Linux+WASM may be usable for smaller feature sets but as soon as it comes to more complex scenarios or library support, there is so much room for improvement.

Furthermore, the deployment size of .NET is HUGE and NativeAOT is really hard to accomplish as soon as you have a few libraries.
Startup times are also not that impressive and deploying for all platforms is really a pain.

For comparison the size of a simple hello world Android App

.NET > 70MB
Flutter < 15MB

That may sound like it's not relevant, but believe me, it is.
I have run proxmox for several years, rely on it for many bits of house and network infrastructure, and recommend proxmox overall. My desktop also runs proxmox with PCIe passthrough for my "actual" desktop (but this is a different proxmox server from the primary VM and container host for infrastructure).

That said, I wouldn't mix the two use cases either initially nor over the long-term. House/network infrastructure should be on a more stable host than the retro-game console connected to your TV (IMO).

In your case, I'd recommend buying another PC (even an ancient Haswell would be fine to start) and getting experience with vanilla proxmox usage there before jumping straight into trying to run infra and MAME/retro gaming on PCIe passthrough on the same singleton box.
It's a weird title anyway. I was expecting worse results but GPT-4V is close to or matching Human median performance on most of the tests besides the multimodal "Intuitive Psychology" tests.

Who would pay for that? Carbon credits exist to white-wash the emissions companies have. Their real effectiveness isn't really a concern for most companies. Just like any other virtue signalling they do...
For some reason you still cannot edit your chat turns in the mobile app. I frequently refine my prompts and the way I ask questions as part of using GPT-4, since the way you phrase your prompts to the model is pretty important (and revising your question by sending a new chat turn can poison the context with the original question/response) and not being able to do this on mobile really kills a lot of the utility of the app for anything other than 1-2 turn quick, simple questions.
I perceive a moving of the goalposts as machine intelligence improves.

We get a better and better idea of what this hazy term "intelligence" means as we DIY tinker with making our own new ones.

Once we'd have been happy with smarter than an especially stupid person, now I think we're aiming at smarter than the smartest person.

We're going to get there sooner than we think. When we get there, we will have new things to regret in ways we'd never thought of before.
Skill issue - overcome after we build a few and streamline the onerous permitting process.
Not really.

There are a million novels now, of which 90% is self-published for a reason (no one wants to publish it, because it won't make any money). With a text generator, there are now 10min lion novels, of which 99% won't make any money.

The book market has found methods to deal with the "99% is garbage" problem. This isn't new.
I think so; there's a series on youtube that takes one through the IPL process on a virtualized (Hercules VMM) mainframe; part of the process of booting involved creating files on the emulator host that corresponded to a boot card deck (for the virtual card reader) and an OS (for the virtual tape drive), IIRC.
It's not easy to automate. As you know Github now works directly off the Rails main branch. They have both core Ruby and core Rails maintainers on staff. They have to find, fix, approve, and merge, introduced bugs every day, as well as deal with Rails bugs themselves in the main branch that emerge. This is a huge overhead cost for keeping software up to date, and does not (and should not) apply to any other company.
Shac: A framework for writing and running static analysis checks
That isn't a fully accurate summary.

The constitution lists some things the government can't do, like "no Attainder of Treason shall work Corruption of Blood, or Forfeiture except during the Life of the Person attainted" and "The Citizens of each State shall be entitled to all Privileges and Immunities of Citizens in the several States" means the government may not privilege the citizens of one state over another.

The latter is called the "Privileges and Immunities Clause", and there are court cases dealing with it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Privileges_and_Immunities_Clau...

Definitely more court cases than for the Third Amendment (quartering soldiers in private homes), where even this link had to stretch to find a relevant movie.

As another example of a restriction on government in the main body of the Constitution, Article I, Section 9, Clause 1 said the government could not pass a law prohibiting the importation of slaves 1808 nor set a tax or duty of more than $10 on those slaves.
That sounds like fairly specific usage. My color laser has served me well for document printing, both color and black and white
JFK and Johnson deserve the blame for starting the war, by the end of Johnson’s term it was obvious the public wanted out of the war and he was negotiating the end of it. Nixon and Kissinger extended the war for political reasons. They met behind the American governments back with the south Vietnamese and convinced them to hold out for a better deal from the republicans, and they withdrew from talks and tanked Johnson’s peace deal. They eventually negotiated almost the same deal but worse after many American lives, and many more Vietnamese, Cambodian and Laotian lives were spent. By all appearances, for nothing more than electing Nixon.
I think there are two different answers, one for the first 10 amendments, and one for the rest:

To understand our love for the first 10 (the bill of rights), you have to understand the context in which they came into being. The US constitution was a positive document, written to grant powers to the US federal government with the implied understanding that all powers not granted to the federal government were reserved for the states or for the people.

Immediately after ratification, the Federalists began to push for more and more powers for the federal government. The constitution's positive nature had a major flaw--it assumed a good faith understanding that the federal government should be as limited as possible, and that unstated powers were necessarily beyond the intended scope of the government. In the absence of that good-faith understanding, the powers of the federal government could (if only in bad faith) interpret the powers of the federal government quite broadly.

To rectify this problem, the first ten amendments (collectively known as the "Bill of Rights") were passed. These are 'negative' in nature, in that they explicitly lay out things which the government cannot do. The nature of the constitution as a generally 'positive' document, where things not listed are not to be assumed to be powers of the government, which was only implied before the bill of rights, was formalized in the 10th amendment.

The rest of the amendments are kind of a grab-bag. To understand why we focus on them, consider that the original constitution is only ~4,500 words long! And from that short document, all constitutional questions were to be answered! These questions are generally answered by the US Supreme Court's 'interpretation' of the constitution, including amendments and its own case law. Generally, amending the constitution is a for the people to decide specific constitutional questions for themselves, rather than relying on SCOTUS to extrapolate from a small body of black-letter law and case law.

The fact that there is more focus on these amendments is, when you think about it, almost tautological. If a constitutional question really matters, we can take it into our own hands and answer it via constitutional amendment. If it doesn't matter all that much (or we can't agree enough to pass a constitutional amendment), we have to rely on SCOTUS to answer the question.
Just to be clear the "scalable" part here is assuming the dataset of human demonstrations is available it can in a closed loop learn better than before?
In other words, am I right in understanding that the mapping from Abstract actions to concrete steps in the State space is provided at a low "enough" cost?
Thank you. So they are or would be complements to somebody elses commercial platform.
I should, yeah, just saw that it's available on Steam :) Would probably be the oldest game I've ever played. Well, except Pong, Tetris etc.

Tried to play Myst as a 10 year old, but wasn't smart enough to figure it out. Maybe Cosmic Osmo is more on my level ;) Really want to try it out this weekend, according to Wikipedia it was a pretty revolutionary game. Also never heard of Hypercards before today (the last Hypercard update was released the year I was born).

I’m going to rant for a sec…

Glad I’m not smart enough, nor care to put the work in, to pass a FAANG interview. I’ll stick to stupid crud land tyvm. This PIP behavior is just one more reason I consider their employment a kind of abuse. I’m human and I refuse to be compromised so easily. Pathetic (to me).

Closest I got was an interview at what I’ll call a molar company (want to be FAANG). I asked the HR screener if the technical code interview was based on real world code or just puzzles (I was going to walk if it’s just puzzle code, not good at fake stuff, haven’t practiced, and I wouldn’t be a good fit if that’s what they are looking for). She assured me the eng lead doing the interview used real code. So I call in, get on camera, where they used a coding interview website and it was a small sample with no context. It may have been from their code base but it was scrubbed and meant nothing to me. I asked for context but he said i don’t need it. I asked if i could change integer types to dates but he said no. Oh, and I was recorded but wasn’t told about that until I called in. So I was pretty pissed because I’m staring at a damn puzzle but this guy thinks the whole setup is a-ok. Well, fine. It might be. For them. I felt like I was lied to them provided no concession. So I hummed and hawed with no intention of solving his puzzle. I made him stick out the whole hour. I even explained at one point I wouldn’t write code like that because multiple conditions and multiple code paths converge on 7 lines. I explained the conditional logic was hidden and it would be better if it were more explicit, not just so it’s readable but because simplifying it by expanding the conditions makes it modifiable, supportable, and testable. Nope. I was told it was Ruby and it’s a Ruby thing to reduce logic in fewer lines of code. Yeah I get it. Inventing a complex trick makes you feel smart. I’m so sorry life is so boring to you.

I’m certain I looked like a fool to him. I don’t care. He had mannerisms that screamed “on the spectrum”. I think that’s fine…until smart people are put in charge and never get an ego check. Leading means leading people, not writing code more complicated than everyone else.

I’m obviously still salty about the whole thing. There’s another situation with people from a much larger software company came in and took a big dump at one of the smaller software companies I worked at. At this point I just don’t trust corporatized anything anymore. I think they’re liars. I think they chew up and spit people out. I think they put profit over humanity. I also think I need to go for a walk. Sincere apologies if I’ve offended anyone. Guess I just needed to get that off my chest. I do hope you have a good day.
Oh, that is not something you should tell me right before Christmas...

Rolling Stone's negative obituary for Henry Kissinger
EDIT: Nevermind
I did this for a while where I ran multiple VMs, some of which had PCIE passthrough for some GPUs on both Windows and Linux. Luckily my motherboard separated out IOMMU groupings to make this work for me. While you _could_ do this, you may run into issues if your IOMMU groups aren't separated enough. The biggest issue I always had was drivers always causing issues with Windows. I eventually blew the entire instance away and just run Windows.

I'd recommend a separate device if you need any access to a GPU. But I do recommend Proxmox as a homelab. I still have it running on a separate 2012 Mac Mini.

Show HN: Profiler – AI that Analyses people's X/Reddit Profiles
Hey HN !
I'm @ybouane, a web developer and indie hacker. I'm excited to share my latest project with you all: Profiler.

Profiler is a Free Google Chrome Extension. It seamlessly integrates into Twitter and Reddit, utilizing AI to offer insightful analysis of individuals based on their social media behavior.

By scanning a person's profile, it's able to deduce various things like:
- Life Interests
- Profession
- Sentiment Analysis
- Political Leanings
- Psychological Traits
- Gender
- Religion
- Country of Origin/Ethnicity
- Behavioral Patterns

Whether you're a marketer, researcher, or just curious, Profiler provides a unique lens to understand people's online personas.

I'm eager to hear your feedback and experiences with Profiler.
If you want to follow more of my projects, I invite you to follow me and reach out on X: @ybouane

IIRC Weird Al treats his parodies more like covers (even going so far as to get permission), and there are credits for the composers, etc. So I wouldn't be surprised if they pay out more like covers than parodies.

He likely doesn't want to be in front of the Supreme Court someday having to defend the parodic aspect like the famous Barbie Girl case, especially as it is not clear that all of his songs are parodies of the song and not some other aspect in the format of the song.
