Thank you for your valuable feedback - much appreciated!

Team knowledge scaling is hard - I totally agree and learned a lot of lessons.

Top management usually works „email only“. No matter what cool dashboard you’re building: they don’t use it, because they’re working almost exclusively on their phones.

And that‘s one tough challenge in my opinion: making data easy to understand on small screens.

Then there is this group of CFOs … they love to connect their Excel to a live datastream. Once. Because at some point they return to static sheets just to prove that a 35 MB Excel file shows their latest forecast.
If I asked you which tech hub was larger between Austin, Detroit, Miami, Minneapolis-St. Paul, Raleigh-Durham and Portland what would you guess?

The answer is Detroit and that may come as a surprise to many. If they included Ann Arbor as part of Detroit metro I'm guessing that would be in the same league as Boston or Chicago.

To my defense I will point out that Ann Arbor is now reached on the Detroit bus system. In addition an airport bus and a University of Michigan bus make multiple trips daily between the cities.

There is a vast difference between having a technology framework ripe for exploitation and having the potential for one.

There is a tendency to point to moral good and say, “of course we should take the risk” as if morality isn’t a grey area or other alternatives therapies that could help people or solve the same problem don’t exist.

Just because it’s a technology with impact that creates social good doesn’t make it a societal good. That’s worth considering and not quashing.

AI will be under high scrutiny and is much less likely to be allowed to create technologies like this at least initially. But if it already exists and is widely deployed?
That doesn't have anything to do with my question.
You're assuming that people would disregard the labels. But people with allergies don't disregard the labels, they buy a different product. Most others don't care if it has traces of nuts or not because nuts aren't going to kill them, so those products find a wide market of people who are perfectly safe eating them.

California says that everything causes cancer because everything kind of causes cancer and their labeling rules are stupid. If the label was only on products with a significant risk of causing cancer from ordinary use, it would be rare and people wouldn't ignore it. In other words, if it was only on the products that would otherwise be banned.

This would only be a problem if you would otherwise have banned lots of things people would still want to buy given a free and informed choice, in which case actually banning them is even worse.

We didn't ban cigarettes, we informed people of the risk:

https://www.lung.org/research/trends-in-lung-disease/tobacco...

And that's one of the most addictive products known. Around the same percentage of adults smoke cigarettes and use illegal drugs. So what good is the ban?
We also shouldn’t have to have so much spam, but alas people are crappy. So the common routes get targeted. Welcome to the modern internet.
Mozilla should be renamed to Rust foundation and deprecate the Gecko browser engine.
Sure. It's already been done; the known prompts usually start with "act as a dungeon master..."

Context size limits will get you, so ChatGPT 3.5 won't work. You'd need something like superbooga or one of those "talk to your PDF" plugins to let the agent look up specifics from the book, since you can't embed the whole thing in the prompt.
I totally agree, but sometimes you have no other choice (e.g. devices that only offer password auth), and in that case it is claimed that sspass is bad ("broken by design" according to the passh author) and passh is good. And that's what I'm confused about
Didn't remember the name either, but asked ChatGPT :-D
The "unfounded claims" were backed up by a link to Stanford on fair use and copyright. That's the opposite of being unfounded.

Remember. The NY Times does not have a record of filing frivolous lawsuits. Particularly not against companies with deep pockets. So it is almost certainly true that a lawyer who knows the law better than you thinks that this has a real chance. So you should be looking for flaws in trivial defenses that you can think up, rather than assuming that you know best.

For example take your copyright facts defense. That would be great if the NY Times was a phone book. They aren't, in addition to facts they offer analysis, editorial positions, and so on. For example I just asked ChatGPT, "In 2016, did the New York Times generally support or oppose President Trump?" I got back an answer talking about various kinds of concerns that the New York Times had, including an editorial titled, "Why Donald Trump Should Not Be President". The copy that ChatGPT needed to have to do that has a lot more than just facts in it.

Now if you paraphrased the NY Times like ChatGPT did when it answered me, you'd have a perfect fair use defense. But you aren't doing it for money, you didn't make a copy of all the NY Times, you aren't destroying the market for the NY Times, and you're legally able to own copyright in your transformed work. OpenAI is doing it for money, did copy all of the NY Times, is seriously impacting the market for NY Times articles, and ChatGPT generated text does not get a copyright.

Fair use is filled with shades of grey. Even if ChatGPT appears to do the same thing that you do, it is far less clear that OpenAI will enjoy the same level of fair use defense.

Thank you for your kind feedback.

The choice of lack of dock is deliberate one -- when we did research with our target audience -- familes and working parents with kids/pets, we realized that they actually do not like the large dock for few reasons:

1) It's ugly - family homes are very carefully decorated and most don't want the big dock in the room.

2) It's extremely loud -- again, it's a matter of preference but it's like rocket taking off every time it vacuums the vacuum. And, even the self-cleaning mopping is noisy. It still doesn't cover for the fact that it just drags dirt around between those cleaning cycles.

3) We heard from familes that they hated the smelly dirty water and did not know where to throw it.

Again, I'll refer to back to noise but for lost of pets and kids, the noise of dock and the robot are very scary. I know because my Golden hated it and my 3-year old would cry everytime the rocket took off.

Based on the response so far to pre-orders, we're very optimistic that it's resonating. Thanks!
I was gonna say that I'm happy that insurance companies are not making arbitrary exceptions just because someone is famous, but then the article finishes with:

> While the original decision was a blanket choice that would have seemingly been made for any driver under 30, the brand has already apologized to Verstappen and added that the special circumstances of his racing resume would get him in any rental car he wanted in the future. In a statement shared with the Sun, a Sixt representative says that Verstappen "can rent the car he wants from us at any time."

I wonder where the limit goes for how many races one must win before you count as an exception? If I've won ~5 local races (first position), can I also get an exception?
Sheesh, a bit on the nose eh! The memo does seem to still be concerned about WMDs though? Curious if there was an even more ulterior motive under the hood there. The WMD concern, as I mention in other comments, wasn't fully out of left field. But I am curious why it was so top-of-mind for a certain wing of the American political sphere at that time. Presumably not humanitarian concerns?
The open source solution to Windows is not a os that runs windows applications. It's an OS which has it's own user space and application ecosystem. Sometimes I wonder why folks don't take the same tact with other platforms like the web. Alternatively, if you look at mobile, no one is seriously pursuing alternatives to Android. They just make Android based distros and no one seems to complain. What makes the web different?
Stories* for Morlocks, not literature for Eloi...

(I had thought Wells' relationship between Morlocks and Eloi might've been a reply to Kipling's Sons of Martha https://www.kiplingsociety.co.uk/poem/poems_martha.htm ,
but the former is from 1895 and the latter was not until 1907)

* although hard sci-fi has its own interwoven network of influences and references, so like capital-L literature and hip-hop, it really does count as a literature.
The best part of GORILLAS.BAS was how easy it was to explore, and crucially, mod. Some of my first programming experiences were tweaking it to change how the throws work, damage, etc. Super basic stuff but a wonderful gateway into the world of development.

It’s a shame there’s nothing as dead simple as that these days. Minecraft I guess is closest? But imo not comparable due to the closed nature and complexity.
A bit more compact, the IBM SK-8845 can still be gotten on eBay with native PS/2 interfaces (or USB, in some variants): http://www.ibmfiles.com/pages/sk88xx.htm

The SK-88*4*5 are actually a little easier/cheaper to get than the later SK-88*5*5, maybe because the earlier model doesn't have Win95 keys.

(The SK-8855 was also noteworthy for Lenovo soliciting user input in its design, before they seemed to go all-in on a consumer Mac-like aesthetic. Now, SK-8855 and earlier TrackPoint keyboards sell used for more than they cost new, even if dirty, since Lenovo isn't making them like that anymore. Even though were only ever lightweight laptop-like keyboards, not veritable battleships like some historical earlier IBM mechanical keyboards.)
Exactly where I’m at. Thank you.
Sorry, I was under the impression that you were also the author of passh. I take that statemen back, obviously (can't edit my post anymore)
I am working on a very similar app but focusing specifically on the knowledge diagramming aspect of it - basically like a drawio/miro/mural but offline first and with extensive support for markdown or LaTeX. My target groups are PhDs and researchers although any “system builder” will find it helpful to build diagrams with documentation and file support. I am at a very early stage now - building the UI part; in the future, I plan to make it truly p2p with elements of Obsidian Canvas.

I've been pretty happy with purelymail.com. It's really cheap (~$10 a year) and has unlimited mailboxes and domains, perfect for low volume. The downside is that it's a one man operation, so if you need more reliability for the technically illiterate, migadu.com or fastmail.com might fit the bill. I don't have personal experience with either, but my friend swears by migadu (which also supports unlimited domains and mailboxes).

Search on HN for either, there's lots of discussion and reviews from accounts way older than mine.
Because it's counterproductive to accuse people of routinely executing massive terrorist attacks against civilian populations when they aren't routinely executing massive terrorist attacks against civilian populations.
I can see how it is an asset to businessowners. I cannot see how it is an asset to, say, qualified engineers who consequently cannot find a job in their field.
Things like "you americans can't reason objectively" aren't OK on HN; it's no more OK when Americans write slurs about Europeans. You're wading into one of the most contentious and complicated geopolitical conflicts in the world. People are going to disagree with you. If you can't deal with that, don't engage on this topic here.
Are TikTok shops a scam? Also how big is YouTube really?
So the title is hyperbole then. Midjourney has no part in infringement. It's all on the users' shoulders.

Just as I thought.
The article covers some good points, but misses a few extra things that the Turbo Pascal 7.0 IDE included that made it a true powerhouse:

- A full OOP tree to determine parents/traits of descendant objects

- The ability to edit, assemble, and trace through both inline and external assembler code

- A registers window that showed all registers and flags at any stage of runtime

...all while able to run on the first 4.77 MHz 8088 IBM PC, which was long in the tooth by the time TP 7.0 came out. (The OOP tree required a 286 as they only added it to the protected mode IDE.) This made the TP 7.0 IDE a complete development and debugging environment for assembler as well as Pascal.
> Is this what europeans think the US is like? No country, just an economic zone?

Just enforcing your southern border is controversial and critically underfunded. I would say that is a minimum requirement to be considered a country.

> Hint: I wasn't even born american (but I am white, in case you were trying to pull that "of course you don't think so, because you are the minority being referenced" card), and I can assure you that I feel like less of a "despised minority" here than I do in my country of birth

Other groups in the US don't share your post-racial individualism: https://www.pewresearch.org/social-trends/2019/04/09/race-in...

And they're turning those feelings into official policy: https://www.city-journal.org/article/racial-discrimination-a...

To guarantee that minority status receives appropriate weight, the manual also suggests “placing contributions to diversity high on the list” or even making that “a criterion candidates must pass to make it to the second round”—for example, by “contributing to diversity” or “serving as a role model for URM students.” Since white candidates cannot “contribute to diversity” or “serve as role models” for students of different races, this guarantees that representatives of the correct races will get hired.

If, somehow, a committee still managed to hire white people or the wrong minorities, the manual suggests developing an audit process to identify criteria where “white candidates, male candidates . . . receive higher scores,” so that those criteria can be removed. Particularly, rigorous scientific practices like “publicly posting data, hypotheses and materials to guard against accusations of selectively reporting results or falsifying data” tends to “produce biased results”—namely, the hiring of white men. This was easily solved by “subsequently dropp[ing]” scientific rigor from “evaluation criterion” of candidate searches.
In my experience at multiple employers many developers struggle to communicate in writing. Everything has to be a call. Then half the time the communications on those calls is itself scattered and disorganized, which just leaves me wanting to hang up and tell them to send it to me in an email so that I can figure out what they are trying to tell me. When they are forced to put things in writing, such as writing an issue in Jira, its full of incomplete assumptions leaving people to guess at what they want without clarity on their desired end state.

My absolute best advise for all developers who cannot communicate is to become best friends with a QA.

This is really bad. Writing applications requires some vague notion of a plan or vision. Plans often fail at execution time and that's fine, because you can always revise your plan and refactor your code, but many developers absolutely cannot do any of this. You take the framework away and... they have absolutely nothing. No idea where to start, what to do, how things work. It is mind blowing.

In just about every other line of work shit rolls down hill. In software shit rolls down hill and up hill in complete defiance of gravity. So many developers are completely insecure, because they have spent their careers lost in a fog, and if you do anything to expose that insecurity, like take the framework away, shit rolls up hill. It has to because when that's all they have and its suddenly gone they have nothing left to lose. I suspect this is a good part of why senior developers not elevated to positions of authority simply don't want to do this work any more and increased compensation is not enough.
Look into Migadu.com, a service out of Switzerland with very reasonable pricing. You get a set amount of storage space and inbound/outbound limits and everything else like how many inboxes you create is up to you.

If you use an ATM and make transactions in cash, then your bank does not know about your transactions (so cannot demand information on them).

You could just make them smaller. There's no rule saying you can't.

There kind of is. Fuel efficiency requirements are stricter for smaller vehicles, creating a perverse incentive to increase size. Here's a 2011 paper that predicted exactly what would happen: https://news.umich.edu/cafe-standards-create-profit-incentiv...
I often find myself disagreeing with fact checkers. No, I don’t have a paper to support this. My disagreement is mostly based on careful reading of the position presented by fact-checkers.
> neither side really cared because immigrants (legal or illegal) can't vote.

This really is the alpha and omega of migration policies all around the world: the people affected don't have a say, and the people not affected use the issues to play hateful games.
L6 being 700k+ is a top tier offer even from a big company. That’s an exceptional offer for staff. I know several people in staff roles and they were not offered that comp upfront. They get to that through appreciation.
Ultimately, we're striving for great user experience which we can do with the bags. Our goal is to make bags as cheap as possible and already it's a $3/bag which is way cheaper than any other robovac bags if we're not mistaken.

That's also why we have all-you-can-clean membership plan -- it's optional and users can purchase bags a al carte, but with it's unlimited bags. mop rolls, extended warranty, and accidental coverage it's really a great peace of mind for our users.

Our goal is to provide great customer experience first and formost with a higest quality product. Thanks!
I would assume they made this statement because they want to protect their brand and not because they think he is or isn't less likely to cause an accident.
If you’re insinuating that all traders are insider trading, I have some really disappointing news for you: the real world is not like TV. Hedge funds are actually incredibly boring 99% of the time.

MS-DOS 5 came out in 1991, not 1981.
Tesla has switched their newer lines to casting. It seems like it's mostly about manufacturing efficiency rather than strength -- they can cast the whole underbody of the vehicle as a single piece rather than having dozens of stamped pieces that need to be welded or riveted together. Initially they were doing the front half as one piece and the back half as another, but they've needed to get bigger and bigger (higher- and higher-force) machines as they've gone from two-piece to single-piece construction.
Certainly seems so, it shouldn't happen afaict.

> The question I’ve been wondering lately is, “why don’t most people I meet have personal websites?”

Because it's still nearly impossible for a non-tech person to create one. Facebook/Tiktok/Instagram offer a lot of what people would want from a personal website for free and give you connections to your friends/family/strangers
I'm not comfortable with this idea that we have to exploit immigrants to fund boomers' retirements.

This could be powerful if executed correctly.

I'm hoping that the runtime and schema/language will be open and interoperable and not a part of your proprietary portion. I understand your need to make money and grow, however.

I wish y'all the best of luck!
Which is fairly typical for Lunduke
Also, families care a lot about privacy, and right or wrong, there's an inheritant mistrust of cloud based disc bots and especially those coming from China. We do not beleive anyone of the disc bot companies have wrong intentions or anything, but I know that I wasn't comfortable with our home data going to cloud.

Hence, we started with the premise that we shouldn't have to compromise our privacy to keep our floors clean. Thanks!

How exactly does C support encapsulation?

I mean, you can do OO type stuff with anonymous handles but the compiler will let a function take one handle type where another belongs and things will fail opaquely but immediately if you're luck and fail slowly if you're unlucky. Which is to say there is no "support".
In what sense is this the "original" Worms game? Is there a particular tie between them? There's been a lot of ballistic artillery games going back to the very dawn of computers.
Very cool. One thing I dislike about PDFs is the complexity, and like you I do use text when possible (text files aren't so great if I want to annotate them, unfortunately).

Information asymmetry plays a large role. Many people would be willing to pay premiums for higher quality but that's easier said than done
> Besides if Europe / Australia / Canada have much simpler immigration why would any skilled/productive prospective immigrant would even think of US.

US wages are significantly higher, and it also has a much more developed tech industry (picking the T from STEM since that's what I know about most).

The US's tech industry succeeds in spite of their immigration policies, not because of it
Thanks, I think so too, but the threat model is a bit odd. On a Mac, potentially malicious programs do not normally have access to files in every location (e.g. the prompts to allow a process to access your Documents dir); there is hardware-backed crypto available for further protections; full disk encryption; and so on. It's unclear to me how to evaluate the severity of the risk.

Every security decision is a risk-reward tradeoff, and the reward of a complete memory of computing tasks seems pretty huge.
