They're allowed to put all sorts of things on food packaging because of "free speech". One example is misleading unprotected terms of provenance.

e.g., Port wine made in California isn't really Port wine, but it's allowed on the market under that name.

Funny enough the only thing that really is protected like this is Scotch Whisky due to a trade agreement that has us hunting down any producer in the USA that advertises an American whiskey as a Scotch whisky.

Don't forget that "free range" chicken doesn't mean shit, neither does "grass fed" beef.

False advertising on food is everywhere in the USA.
1. Your first site is a bunch of dudes spouting about something they don't like, big deal. Their ideas are not proof of any kind.

2. TorrentFreak is hardly a legitimate news source. A simple read of the Wikipedia page on them is pretty embarrassing.

3. Since mp3caprice is obviously not in the USA, they are not bound by our "legal stuff", which can be said of TorrentFreak also.

The best way to test this hypothesis would be to send a pull request that makes the self-hosting docs clearer. If they accept it then their business does not rely on self-hosting being hard.

Extremely impressively polished, no framework is not an easy way to make that. Very fun!

I don't know if you're looking for feedback but I found the spider doing something other than what I wanted when I tapped more often than I expected. I think me practicing more might fix that.

The control instructions might bear repeating to help with that.

Utopia like that requires people in power to work toward it, not their own bank account state.

No tech is going to change that.
A good starting point for understanding First Amendment constraints on government power to regulate deception is the U.S. Supreme Court's declaration of "common ground" in Gertz v. Robert Welch, Inc.:

Under the First Amendment there is no such thing as a false idea. However pernicious an opinion may seem, we depend for its correction not on the conscience of judges and juries but on the competition of other ideas. But there is no constitutional value in false statements of fact. Neither the intentional lie nor the careless error materially advances society's interest in "uninhibited, robust, and wide-open" debate on
public issues.

Exactly, laws are meaningly. Laws are just there to pretend that they are compliant. There's no accountability for the laws.
This was most startups back in 2000. Having witnessed it first hand, I can tell it’s an extremely accurate description. So sad it’s still going on. In the 2000s we had “B2B” that VCs threw money at. AI is just the latest acronym.

Pascal naysayers are those stuck in Pascal 1.0 for anything related to C vs Pascal.

That optional extension became part of the ISO Extended Pascal revision, for example.

To make it clear should we compare Go's ability to write generic code versus other languages, using 1.21 or 1.0 version?

do you have any explanation why those trading algorithms have had so great performance figures in the past but basically stayed flat (or negative) in 2023?

i've observed this at a few others like velvetai and whitecloud capital and it seems your models show the same ( e.g. https://grizzlybulls.com/models/vix-ta-macro-advanced )

> With the worst of COVID behind us, annual deaths for all causes should be back to pre-pandemic levels — or even lower because of the loss of so many sick and infirm Americans.

Since we now know that Covid can lead to long-term suppression of the immune system and that a significant part of infected people have other lingering issues, this is obviously false.
That's an emergency maneuver where you are trying to land an out of control vehicle, don't really see how it applies to the above scenario. So no its still not safe but neither is having no brakes.

This video really stretches credulity. Having the wireless be more efficient than wired points to either bullshit or a methodological error somewhere.
Feels like one of those 'neat on paper, bad in practice' kinds of ideas. I can imagine it being pretty bad for code readability if not used judiciously, and it adds an extra layer of complexity and troubleshooting when things go wrong.

Maybe I'm just a purist.
These stories are why I can't help but distrust our police force. I'm sure they mean well, but they turn any interaction into an adversarial one.

- I made my own budgeting tool that mapped to my own personal ideas, using my bank's API[0]. Not using it anymore (transitioned to different kinds of budgeting that need either less apps or none).

- Also made a PHP SDK for said API [1]. Has a handful of users, but looking to transfer it to someone else in the community who is more involved with that community right now.

- Made a small server tool that tracked South Africa's loadshedding schedules and would issue Minecraft rcon commands to save the world, warn players, and safely shut down the machine prior to the scheduled power cut.

- Rolled my own Ansible setup for Nextcloud and a handful of other services (these days I'd rather use yunohost/sandstorm/umbrel/etc).

- Currently working on my minimalistic (or rather, alternative) Laravel stack as a SaaS starter kit, called Toybox [2]. Currently waiting on FrankenPHP's Octane support to go live and then will transition to using that as the Toybox server. Right now it's in a bit of a WIP state. My intent is to use this as my own springboard for indie hacker type projects.

That is essentially the VC advantage over business founders. They have a cat worth of lives.
Tesla did and is betting on battery costs coming down due in part to tech under development and they could have been on the wrong side of that bet. I think unlike Theranos, battery tech has a semipredictable cost curve

A door opening on the highway is an emergency scenario, too. The car is correct to go “what the fuck?!”
That's so trivial to disprove I don't even know what to say. Replacing just one human with AI saves you hundreds of thousands of dollars per annum even if they're a low-qualified, low-paid one. It's not just salary (with insurance and taxes, health benefits) but also office space, amenities, liabilities.

Humans have no way to compete with what's happening.
> What should Israel do? Not do a blockade and hope that Hamas decides to give up violence after 30 years, despite it promising to do so?

So what is your plan then? Keep millions of people in perpetual prison for all eternity? Because that's more or less what "blockade of Gaza" entails.

It's important to emphasise just how small the Gaza strip is: roughly the size of Dublin (smaller if you exclude fairly large "forbidden zones" near the wall). No city that size can be self-sufficient, it's physically impossible. Gaza is set up to fail. Not intentionally as part of some plan, but that doesn't change the fact of it.

Hamas has hinted at some moderation over the years such as recognising Israel's right to exist, and they have basically been ignored or rebuffed at every turn. Israel hasn't even tried with Hamas. They just said "fuck these elections" in 2005 and that was that.

I intently dislike Hamas, but Hamas is the reality that exists, so it's what you'll have to deal with. Simply giving up and saying "well, Hamas are a bunch of religious nutjobs, so we're not even going to try" is a huge part of why things have escalated in the first place. Note how Hamas-levels of extremism doesn't have wide-spread support among the Palestinians on the west bank.

If you grew up in Gaza and are in your 20s now then you hardly remember a time before the blockade. What do you expect from the people of Gaza? After a life-time of desperation for them to come to an epiphany and lay down all protest and adopt carefully nuanced language in the hope that Israeli politicians will give them more freedom? All of that in spite of religious nutjobs currently in government who support Jewish mass-murderers and have expressed views that are just as extreme as Hamas and are nothing short of genocidal? That is just as naïve, if not more so, than expecting Hamas to immediately come to their senses after lifting the blockage.

Hamas has blood on its hands, absolutely, but the idea that Israeli are poor victims who have never done anything wrong is just dead wrong.

Of course it is fair. Why would we consider "fair" for an open source offering trying to entice new users?

I don't want a new project, I want to try self-hosting the software. If I am using it and liking it then certainly I would put time and effort into it. If it takes some time fiddling around with docker even to use, well, I have other projects to fiddle.

That goes for all self-hosted, but especially so for a project management tool. I'd be trialing it because I have projects I already need help managing. Adding one more is friction that would likely turn me away.
At that point you already succeeded with your business. In the really risky phase it is all credit card, that you need to recoup.
I've been testing it out recently and it's been quite successful but I am about to change that to a soft paywall. I'm thinking 7 days with an occasional nagging paywall and then you get an extra 30 days free if you add credit card details.

What do you think?
The hardware market would very likely be much different if those years don't include a heavily funded AI research industry driving up innovation and demand for that hardware, but even if nothing changed we would at least be buying a decade or two for us to be better prepared and more thoughtful about any technological advancements we want to pursue with AI.

Today the industry is driven entirely by the promise of future profits and the love of innovation with no real regard for actual risks that could be in play.
Targeting UEFI is potentially practical - you could build something hard-realtime like something that controls motors on a robot and does visual output for readouts at the same time.

I have a hard time imagining possible practicality from going lower level than that, it's really wild west.

Supervision is an act so if it is required then an action is required.
What a bizarre statement from someone who ought to know better. Did he graduate from Nokia?
Honestly don't know where I'd even start to initiate such a process (not based in the US). I'm still in a phase where I'm angry enough to keep bugging support / going to Genius bar with the issue.
> I don't suggest that at all. What Tesla did was to create an electric car with good user experience without developing any revolutionary tech.

Not sure what you mean. They are the ones that made the tech good enough for mainstream adoption. Your post reads like the “iPhone didn’t have any revolutionary tech” types.
I think it's because how many of the major tech products come from the US. If they started to actively enforce the violations every time it becomes official it's a violation nearly every company in Europe would be affected. Salesforce, Hubspot, Google Apps, Office 365, etc. all leading to violations would be a major thing, it would give some European tech companies a massive boost and probably improve European tech scene but it would be a major issue for a while.
As far as I understand, the paid plans only opt you out of the ads but not the rest of the growth hacking bullshit that all commercial social media platforms do to some degree.
If Covid immunosuppression is the problem, then why are young people (per the article) a disproportionate share of the excess deaths?

> Unlike in the pandemic’s early phase, these deaths are not primarily among the old. For people 65 and over, deaths in the second quarter of 2023 were 6 percent below the pre-pandemic norm, according to a new report from the Society of Actuaries. Mortality was 26 percent higher among insured 35-to-44-year-olds, and 19 percent higher for 25-to-34-year-olds, continuing a death spike that peaked in the third quarter of 2021 at a staggering 101 percent and 79 percent above normal, respectively.

Indeed, that suggests they are correct - unless you have a better explanation of why older people are doing better than pre-pandemic.

Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
I was trying to generalise a concept so I used a placeholder word. I feel that most people got that.
I think - and this is not well expressed elsewhere, so either I'm on to something, or I'm not - but all these regulations are about potentially harmful truth claims. So libel and slander fall into this; so do misleading advertisements. We want people to speak, but we also want people (and far more so, businesses) to tell the truth.

I'm always amazed when startups operate like this. I'm equally in awe when they get capital and VC's don't notice this either. I guess the later could be naive and just assume that the tech required to make it works requires this, but it is still baffling that nobody thinks its a good idea to get one of your bigger costs down
It's perfect! This is what any AI is brilliant for, a tool for the perpetual present: the unimaginative, repetitive, average reproduction of what already exists, inoffensive and dull, the result a soulless shadow of "thing" that the machine has been trained on, for the easy pandering of countless philistines.
Betting on economies of scale and improved performance is quite different than betting on tech that doesn't exist. Theranos bet on doing over 200 blood test from single drop of blood, which is science fiction. They may try to solve it but there's no clear path.

I originally started from writing Python scripts and running Web servers, after 10 years I decided that pure software is too boring, and now I came to know the basics of high-speed digital signal propagation in circuit boards.

So I agree with you conceptually. But practically speaking, it also requires an eternal life, an external brain storage, or possibly both. At least in my experience, I find that my time and attention doesn't allow me to investigate everything I'd like to.

If that is implied, it is verifiably false. In the EU we had higher Covid vaccine coverage, including coverage with all vaccines given in the U.S., plus one more which wasn't given in the U.S. and which is also the only one with known adverse effects - AstraZeneca's. And we don't have any excess mortality now. So it's certainly not vaccines.
Wrong question to ask. The actual question is whether the FSD car crashes more than the average alternative. That is what determines whether it should be allowed on the road, holding Tesla to a higher standard than all other manufacturers because you have a bad association with the brand would be ridiculous and petty.

Lawyers get paid to bend the law in your favour. There is nothing moral about it.
No surprise, an idea this dumb could only be used to separate investors from their money.
Some risks there are worth more effort in mitigating them than others. Focus on far out things would need more than stacked hypotheticals to divert resources to it.

At the low end, chemical weapons from LLMs would, for example, not be on my list of relevant risks, at the high end some notions of gray goo would also not make the list.

Zealous representation is a critical part of the justice system for criminal law as pertains to individuals.

Actual people. People who aren't fictional.

I've yet to see a good, ethically sound argument that corporations inherently deserve the same. They're not people. They aren't subjected to the same kinds of penalties as people even when they kill people. The stakes are different and so are the affordances a reasonable person can demand. So it seems eminently reasonable to consider the ethics of a lawyer representing a client just as one would consider the ethics of any vendor doing business with a shithead.
