I don't think I am. A practical answer is: "Install Signal Desktop".

And I still think we are few who care about chat history. I'm sure there are people who care. I'm such a person.

It's also only a missing feature for iOS user, so that makes it: "of the few people who care about chat history, the minority of people who use iOS are only covered by installing Signal Desktop". A pain for these users, but they have at least two workable solutions. Using Android or installing Signal Desktop somewhere. (yes, caveat, you need to do that before losing your phone)

By yes, I agree that it would be better to have the backup feature.
Violent strikers should go to jail.
I believe you are arguing I could always choose not to work. I wish to work for an employer and the employer wishes to work with me. In this hypothetical there is required membership with an unrelated party I do not wish to associate with.

If I wanted to go to a coffee shop and that shop wanted to serve me coffee but the mafia is standing outside saying I have to pay them before I can go in, they are in fact forcing me to pay or turn away.
People have tried using probabilistic SNNs because the gradient is well defined there. The issue is it’s computationally intractable to calculate so you still have to use an approximation and you’re thus not better off than the people using a surrogate gradient of the non-probabilistic SNN.
One must read the whole thing to understand it. If certain organizations can just choose to not do business with you and the de jure system says that the only way to get a legally required document is through those organizations, then those organizations are a proxy legal system.

This does not seem particularly controversial to me. Yes, credit agencies and banking approximate such a proxy in the US but the limits of such a system in the US were tested when marijuana and pornography sellers were able to find a way to bank despite the rest of the system attempting to stop them.

Things I learned from teaching
Stockholm ranks very high for Unicorns per Capita which most people don't seem to be aware of. Some sources say it's just under the Bay Area. Certainly there are many for a small country. Spotify, Klana, Tink, Northvolt, Kry, Einride, Voi, H2 Green Steel, etc...

The other notable thing is many of these are in the green energy space which Tesla will want to be part of. Northern Sweden has Europes largest deposit of rare minerals required for green batteries which are heavy and awkward to move around, so having access to those in Germany would be huge for Tesla down the line. Also, as mining becomes more targeted by climate crackdowns, Sweden is globally leading at carbon-neutral green mining.

There's loooooads of innovation in the green space in Sweden and avoiding this for a couple hundred technicians pensions is just insane to me.
I have a strong suspicion that OP is using 'maybe' as a rhetorical device in this case, and is not actually hedging their statements.

It is the reason I do not like the term "human nature". Is it a human nature to kill other humans? Are moral considerations a part of a human nature?

> To pick the most extreme example: most people don't need a law, or even a moral code, to not kill other people.

How it may be a "nature" if it is artificial? Some cultures routinely eat other people, we do not, how it can be a human nature, if different people coalesce at different "natures"?

There is a famous debate "nature vs. nurture", and I believe it is unwise to call something to be a nature thing, if it is really a nurture thing. It just bring a lot of confusion.

> Everyone's human nature is, on average, reasonably aligned, and laws tend to reflect that average.

Eww... averages... I believe it is impossible to have a meaningful definition of an "average person". There was a story of average pilot[1], and later of a search for average american woman (can't find a link). You cannot have meaningful averages in highly multi-dimensional spaces.

But if we rephrase it referring to a social norms, it could make sense, but then comes a question what is the difference between human nature and social norms?

A sure telltale is laser writing. You can tell on their second example - the writing is sharp and perfect. Often the logo is not quite solid color, and you can see it has lines from the laser in it. The color of laser-'printed' text is also typical.

The originals often have pretty bad markings on them, actually. Off-center, not aligned, not evenly printed. Too perfect is suspicious.

Also look at the pins. Sometimes they dip the feet into solder to make them look unscratched and shiny. I have avoided buying 'New Old Stock' ICs because I could tell the pins had solder on them.

A couple of times I found the IC was of the type advertised (after I removed the paint). I guess they just added a fresh coat of paint to make them look new!
The sad truth is there is plenty of room for Musk to make things much worse. I imagine he can deny them SpaceX payloads. Starlink was just made available to them as well. He could throttle or deny their uplinks and downlinks.

You don’t even need the second <use>, you can just render the <circle> normally and use it in the clipPath:

<defs>
<clipPath id="ball">
- <circle cx="0" cy="20" r="70" />

</clipPath>

- <circle cx="0" cy="20" r="70" fill="#D1495B" />
+ <circle cx="0" cy="20" r="70" fill="#D1495B" id="round" />

(Personally I’d also drop the <defs>-wrapping. Never did understand why structuring them that way is recommended, I don’t think it actually gets you anything except for the vanishingly rare case where you want to put something that would render if it were not in a <defs> tag—I say “vanishingly rare” because situations like you showed—//defs/circle—should normally actually use <symbol>.)
> Context doesn't matter, they can't afford this being on the platform and being interpreted with different context

I have to disagree. The idea that allowing human interaction to proceed as it would without policing presents a threat to their business or our culture is not something I have seen strong enough argument for.

Allowing flagging / reporting by the users themselves is a better path to content control.

IMO the more we train ourselves that context doesn't matter, the more we will pretend that human beings are just incapable of humor, everything is offensive, and trying to understand others before judging their words is just impossible, so let the AI handle it.
> as similarly as SQL injection.

I really like this analogy, although I would broaden it -- I like to equate it more to XSS: 3rd-party input can change the LLM's behavior, and leaking private data is one of the risks but really any action or permission that the LLM has can be exploited. If an LLM can send an email without external confirmation, than an attacker can send emails on the user's behalf. If it can turn your smart lights on, then a 3rd-party attacker can turn your smart lights on. It's like an attacker being able to run arbitrary code in the context of the LLM's execution environment.

My one caveat is that I promised someone a while back that I would always mention when talking about SQL injection that defending against prompt injection is not the same as escaping input to an SQL query or to `innerHTML`. The fundamental nature of why models are vulnerable to prompt injection is very different from XSS or SQL injection and likely can't be fixed using similar strategies. So the underlying mechanics are very different from an SQL injection.

But in terms of consequences I do like that analogy -- think of it like a 3rd-party being able to smuggle commands into an environment where they shouldn't have execution privileges.

There is a lot of off the shelf 12V equipment you can buy. Plus even more that is sitting in garages ready to be installed in the next vehicle. Cars are manufactured in enough quantity that it would only cost $0.01 per vehicle to design it (plus parts costs which are probably the same), but that is still a few million to the bottom line if they use the same 12 volt radio. Add to that that ICE cars everywhere have 12 volt starters, and you can buy 12 volt jump start kits: when (not if!) a battery fails to start the ICE you better be able to jump start it from a 12 volt battery - this is a safety issue.

Tesla doesn't have ICEs, so the safety concerns are lost on them. Thus all 48 volt makes some sense. They still need something for all the accessories people have.

2% of what? If you mean alcohol, that is not how fermentation works for preserving food/drinks.

Using beneficial/harmless cultures to outcompete harmful microorganisms, which is how fermentation is used to preserve food/drinks, has been the main way of preserving food across cultures. Especially before fridge, canning and and other modern industrial techniques have been possible. Yeah I do not get the "beer instead of water" thing, but I can imagine there could be a lot of situations that beer could be important to have as a water source, like traveling distances.
The employment laws in many Asian countries make it very difficult to lay people off or fire them. This sounds great on paper, but comes its own host of problems.

One knock on effect is that the job market for anyone that isn't a new grad is tough and extremely hostile. Having been laid off or fired carries such a stigma because it is a rare thing that most people don't encounter. If you're past your 30s and laid off? Good luck landing a new gig anywhere near the level you were at before. This can devastate many families in ways unimaginable to many Americans.

Another secondary effect is that workplace politics become dominant. Many incompetent workers that should've been fired long time ago are allowed to linger on, gaining seniority and accumulating more power. This translates into a workplace where your value isn't tied to the work you output, but which "line" you stand behind.

There is no panacea. Pick your poison.

Show HN: Liquid Auctions – Instant liquidity powered by incentivized bidding
GM HN!

Working on a novel way to auction non-standard tokenized assets. Two main quirks with the way our auctions work

1. Bid-to-earn model that encourages bidders to participate actively, bidding high and early. Incentivizing people to bid even though they may not want the underlying asset.

2. Instant Liquidity: Sellers get to tap into the liquidity from the bidders by paying a fee that gets redistributed to bidders based on how much bid "risk" they take (the standard rate is set at 3%)

Note: Sellers can cancel the auction anytime, but they will need to repay whatever they took out plus an additional fee, which is paid to bidders. Canceled auctions effectively become loans. Unlike p2p laon protocols, our auctions optimize for the sale (default) instead of the repayment.

I do get the somewhat discomfort with novels and movies dealing with historical events and people. While often enjoying his work, I definitely had this feeling with much of James Michener's work. You're reading this massive tome and it's often unclear (though he did sometimes provide some notes) what is actual historical fact, what is speculative, and what is made up out of whole cloth.
People are just tools for unions too.
You'd have to a) convince a majority of your coworkers, and b) have some associated, relevant labor demand. A strike isn't just "I don't want to do this."
Not all that different from paying for a "Only works on Mac" app, but it does seem odd to charge this much for something that isn't done yet. This is open/closed beta territory, not "charging money before it's even ready" territory.
>Whether something is harmful or not is simply your opinion. If that something is a fact, then there's probably a law against it, so there's no need to prevent other developers from developing it.

Cigarettes are harmful and are legal.

It is not an easy as you think, I worked at a small company in a emote team, there was proposed that we all need to install spying software on our computers so we can be better monitored. Everyone in the team refused and the bad stuff did not happen, we were not replaced with a new team. But if it was only one guy he could be replace but good luck replacing 80% of your developers like they are are some pre-made lego bricks you can swap out.

You might be right, maybe developers should instead work on proposing legislation for banning harmful stuff and keep unions focused on work conditions.
Evaluation tools can be trivially inverted to create a finetuned model which excels at malware creation.

Meta's stance on LLMs seems to be to empower model developers to create models for diverse usecases. Despite the safety biased wording on this particular page, their base LLMs are not censored in any way and these purple tools simply enable greater control over finetuning in either direction (more "safe" OR less "safe").

Those same constraints exist with private sector health care.

Without insurance, it's just a matter of an individual's ability to pay directly.

Insurance providers (in the US model), keep doctors/nurses on payroll to approve/deny treatments (often regardless of what the treating physician has deemed appropriate).

With public health care, those doctor-come-bureacrats just move from being paid by a corporation to being paid by the government. The political right (in the US) calls these "death panels" but completely ignores that we're already subject to this, just by a for-profit entity instead of our duly elected government.

Is this really a commitment to AI? MLX only enables apple silicon to do things. It feels very little like "we're committed to pushing AI forward" and much more like "we're afraid if we don't do this, frameworks will have middling support for our expensive hardware and developers won't embrace what we're doing and consumer software will have AI pushed to the cloud".

Which is to say, it does not feel altruistic commitment, it feels like strategy.
