I would expect this answer from a reddit thread or a youtube comment, but not from HN. One would think such a silly and ignorant view of history would not be found here, but alas, it was.

Yours seems to be one of those opinions that can be summed up as "lol Greeks good Romans steal" when there is no shortage of technology and civil law improvements the Romans brought to light. To mention a few: a senate, aqueducts, urban planning, sanitation, civil engineering much better than that of the Greeks (see domes and arches), many ideals that are still present in today's governments, farms of quasi-industrial level production, and so forth.

That the Greeks made more developments in Maths is true - it was more of a cultural thing anyway. Your post also completely ignores the fact that Greece flourished under Roman rule and managed to keep many of its freedoms, with the protection of a giant empire. Romans also distributed Greek texts to all corners of the known world, wherein learned people could be found.

Your comment seriously sounds like that of a child, not at all something of the level of HN.
Each person carries some chance of carrying an STI. Some people aren't aware of their status or may deliberately hide it. For those two probabilistic variables alone, while the absolute risk may be small, it's still at least double that of 2-people relationships. If someone is more likely to enter a 3-person relationship after leaving another 3-person relationship, you have added network effects increasing the risk. How could it be true that the risk isn't different? What have I missed?

I think it would have been more accurate to say that ethical non-monogamy (ENM) has become more popular. The only statistics I've seen seem to support that conclusion. I've not seen any statistics that seem to indicate polyamory specifically is dominating that trend though.
isn't that the promise of the web?

if you have an account online somewhere you can log in from any device. the device itself is merely a machine to run the code downloaded from your online account. you could do everything though that account and treat the device like a dumb terminal.

any specific device that provides special functions, like your car, could also connect to that account and upload its data there, so you can access it from anywhere else.

technically this is already possible today.

Data scientists have better ways of quantifying uncertainty. They can estimate statistics (functions of noisy estimates) by modeling the noise distribution, and report the credible- or confidence interval. And this is standard practice, so there is nothing to worry about.

As an alternative you could write some automation scripts to handle all the requirements for self hosted install. If you look at oogaboogas text-generation-webui [0] you can see what I mean.

It's also trying to suggest that that history explains the dominant computing paradigms today. I think that historically-driven thinking only goes so far when today's hardware is vastly more powerful than anything we used to have. Any paradigm that serves users better could be used on today's very capable hardware, and presumably it would be extremely attractive. So why does this article sound like moving to the old paradigm that it prefers is a lost cause? We're not at the end of history quite yet.

As I said, claiming that ruby doesn't have first-class functions isn't "meaningfully true". Ruby does not have functions, only methods. But that's mostly irrelevant.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-class_function#Languag...

> The identifier of a regular "function" in Ruby (which is really a method) cannot be used as a value or passed. It must first be retrieved into a Method or Proc object to be used as first-class data. The syntax for calling such a function object differs from calling regular methods.

https://blog.appsignal.com/2018/09/04/ruby-magic-closures-in...

> Ruby doesn’t have first-class functions, but it does have closures in the form of blocks, procs and lambdas. Blocks are used for passing blocks of code to methods, and procs and lambda’s allow storing blocks of code in variables.
Just to be clear... Polygamy/Polygyny IS NOT polyamory, and it is very much incompatible with the ENM and polyamory ethos afaik.
I would say creating a model which is able to interpolate from training data in a way which produces an accurate output of a new input is a little impressive (if only as a neat party trick), however anybody can run a python interpreter on a server somewhere.

I’m sure there are use cases for this. But in the end it is only a simple feature added onto a—sometimes—marginally related service.

ahh, so a bulk sender is a specific contract, as opposed to just any account sending over a certain threshold. got it.
This is for mass sending SMS messages onto the T-Mobile network, particularly with what’s called A2P 10DLC. Essentially, sending automated and transactional messages that come from full length phone numbers. Over the past few years T-Mobile specifically and the industry generally have continually worked on tightening restrictions on these. As it stands now, to work with a business like Bandwidth in order to send these kinds of messages, you have to verify your business, and then verify and justify each messaging campaign.

If end users start reporting too many messages that are sent from these numbers as spam, a human will eventually review the reported messages and their campaigns. The most likely way the fine itself will work is that T-Mobile charges Bandwidth (or whomever you’re routing messages through), and they pass on the fine to you.

A lot of Heinlein's stuff had polyamory at least in the background, it not front and center.

More recently, The Expanse dealt with it.

Though, honestly, the other spouses all just felt like 2D cutouts of characters, existing solely to show the "open mindedness" of the main character.

I don't think I've ever seen a story that really dealt with polyamory with all the characters having agency. Though, granted, haven't gone out of my way to look for it.

I am assuming that GP was not specific about Chinese investors' money due to national security concerns or sinophobia. More pressing, especially to anyone hoping to live anywhere near Vancouver, is the fact that Chinese investors account for 1/3 of the total sales volume of property (2016 figures). [1]

For most industries and investments, sure. Shouldn't matter who owns what.

Property and real estate have a different utility, in that it provides one of the most foundational needs a person requires. It's not the same as a chinese investment firm buying up various asset classes, non-native investors buying up real estate that could provide shelter to native citizens is a problem.
Foxit Phantom is pretty good
As a Chinese, I can use YouTube, X, and Instagram, but I can hardly use TikTok,it detect which country my SIM card belongs to. I often come across false content about China on Western social media, which significantly outweighs the real content. Of course, there is about 10% of real content that I cannot access on domestic social media platforms. Regarding China, Western media consists of nearly 80% false content and 20% real content, with the real content being mostly negative. The information about the West in China is similar, where the saying "all crows are black" applies.In the end, we live in a safe authoritarian country. Of course, I wish to live in a true democratic country, but does it exist? The United States? Hilarious.

People know what the singular "they" is. It has been a common feature of English for centuries.

It's just difficult to parse a writing where the same pronoun is used throughout for multiple different entities. This exact same issue commonly crops up with "he", "she", and "it" as well.

The solution in these instances is to limit usage of the pronoun altogether and just use the noun directly wherever there may be any ambiguity.

For example, don't say, "Julia wrecked Sarah's car; she was pissed!" The "she" here should just be replaced with "Sarah" or "Julia", even if it sounds a little odd to use the same noun twice in short succession.
So you'd like to incentivise more obfuscation of revenue to boot?

I think an effective remedy for this kind of situation can't just be fiscal, we need requirements to publish adequate technical specifications and strong IP carveouts to make it likely to move the needle. Forcing companies to maintain continuous support is a non-starter. We should instead focus on enabling unofficial support from outside the companies, and remove legal threats from those who choose to do so

THat's an easy answer as I've seen first hand why.

It comes down to how transparent a country is and how much rule of law there is there for poeple who are outside of that country.

To use your example, there isn't a lot someone in North American can do to track down and get a debt paid by someone in China as the banking system will not cooperate, and the legal system will not cooperate.

France on the other hand tends to use the same banks and has very close legal ties so the legal system and the banking system will both cooperate in a way that you could never get from the Chinese legal or banking system if someone from that country owes you money and has assets in France and a North American court has a judgement against them.

If a North American court has a judgement against a Chinese citizen residing in China, how cooperative do you think their legal system or banking system will be?

So yes, which foreigners that own property can matter a great deal if there is ever a dispute with them.

Imagine if the tax was, for the sake of argument, based on the inflation-adjusted lifetime revenue over $500k and had different rates based on the total sales, each increasing over time so the cost of locking up a 20 year old game is more than they ever made for it. I don’t see how what wouldn’t have a strong incentive to release things they aren’t actively commercializing.
Hm, I don't think of it that way I guess. What the LLM is doing is generalizing a problem based on previous problems it has seen and then offloading the execution of that problem to a machine with some defined, specific semantics.

This is a lot more than a party trick. The model is able to describe the program it wants to execute and now it can accurately execute that - that it 'offloads' the work to a specialized program seems fine to me.

It's way more than a simple feature, this is enabling it to overcome one of the biggest limitations and criticisms of LLMs - it can answer questions it has never seen before.
>many ideals that are still present in today's governments

Rome existed for more than a thousand years, and for five hundred of those years there was only an emperor (who didn't refer to himself as a king). I will give you that Rome was good at building but that doesn't stop it from being a dark age. And while Greece was mostly left alone they did not "flourish" and their output significantly decreased. The Romans were anti intellectual and cared more about their traditions than understanding the world. That's why the Romans used Greek statue building techniques to make status of themselves and of the Emperor instead of the gods like Greece did. To Romans they were their own gods. They didn't care about the natural world or about philosophy. They actually became better at statue building than the Greeks (after hundreds of years) which would probably be listed by you as a "Great Roman Achievement" but it's just the result of Aping Greek culture. The Romans themselves were in a sense aware of this; they would use Greek in official documents and would at times dress up in Greek Togas/Chitons. Caesar's Et tu, Brute? was actually spoken in Greek.
Someone should run numbers to see if this will be economically viable, since output during morning and evening will be much lower, meaning electricity cost will be much more expensive after offsetting cost of panels, installation and maintenance.
