I don't think it's that unusual. What comes to mind immediately is it's not unusual for me to clone something from a private git repo, where a username+password would be needed for permissions. In which case it's possible to put in `git clone http://username:password@example.com` or another git command that interacts with remotes. (To be clear the "password" is typically a token and not human generated string, but still functions like a password).

Hah! I'm not sure about this. It could, but it also could help with language preservation.

I was quite surprised when GPT-4 was able to talk in Lojban to me. Somehow, I doubt it was intentionally trained to speak Lojban - that's a pretty niche conlang. So, I guess, it possibly picked some on its own, just from the books and dictionaries that were fed to it?

And to my amusement, it said that it doesn't speak Lojban, but can talk in the languages from my custom instructions... to my very limited understanding, all in mostly correct Lojban (except that it used "glico" ["English" in the sense of culture] instead of "glibau" ["English" in the sense of language]). Maybe it doesn't speak it well, but certainly does much better than I.
If it's growing at a constant percentage per year, it's growing exponentially, so it must be getting faster in absolute terms, since 2% of today's economy is much more than 2% of 1950s economy.

I feel like there must be some generation coming that feels like being highly online is weird and embarassing, having grown up and seen the way their parents and other adults behave, and use the internet more as a utility rather than a place to try to primarily live. What makes this hard I think is how addictive it is for children, so by the time they might realize how embarassing it is they have already been addicted by devices their parents gave them.
>More architectures is good.

I agree. This is why we need to support the new open standard architecture over the established proprietary one.
1. Both parents working jobs, so childhood is spent with ADHD diagnosis / adderall

2. Dating and gender stuff completely changed, no more "going steady" or waiting until marriage, and not even hooking up anymore, now everything old is cringe, but not sure what is supposed to happen. First generation where females will out-earn males and also no one is really sure what they contribute to society anymore

3. The big one... teens grew up with the Internet, and all the capitalist industries and images promoted on TikTok, Instagram, etc. It's a race to the bottom with exploitation and fake online personas, similarly to how crypto tokens are in a race to the bottom with generating fake volume etc. Now you're competing against the whole world.

4. They see very little to look forward to, because of AI and automation depressing jobs. Their dads are probably on opiates while their moms are on antidepressants. Their parents generation probably has the highest level of divorce of any in thousands of years.

5. AI and automation making jobs pay less, everyone having less to begin with, and AI will probably be funnier, sexier and more interesting than they are, and humans will stop even needing each other for anything anymore. Seems like the best case scenario is living in a zoo with AIs surrounding you and being able to change nothing. Plus with climate change and wars. What's to look forward to?
I agree that it would suck for tech non-savvy people, but at the same time the literacy of general population with any technology naturally improves as time passes. Of course, while there is still a big enough chunk of people that do need a require (or just prefer) a particular way of communicating, it should be generally available at a good-enough level of convenience. The key is of course to only start scaling it back at the appropriate time, at which there is so few people that they can be considered outliers (and I mean actual, statistical outliers, not 'whoever the government doesn't consider important enough').

But all of this is of course just like my opinion man. Just a very interesting topic to think about.
I consider the TOC deeper research than the blurb on site. Just pointing out it doesn't mention the book is about the physical layer at all - a probable explanation for why you didn't find it in the TOC.

That is a very good point, and something I did not include in my logic. Thanks for pointing that out.
I think this will always be the case as long as there's inequality of any kind in the world. People will do extraordinary things to get themselves into a better position.

I mean, just look at the things people are doing to migrate to other countries, let alone what they have to do once they're in the country. So much of it sounds dreadful, yet for some people it's still a better life than the alternative i.e. gang violence etc.

Not only that, but the driver of a train will often see an impending collision, but will have no way to prevent it -- it takes a freight train over a mile to stop. The combination of being in control of the train, but unable to stop an accident, is a recipe for trauma.
We have something similar in Norway, but shorter races on rally cross tracks. To keep drivers spending and tuning in check, the winners car is offered for sale at ~500$ after the race.

In Belgium, I've noticed a general "de-servicing" across industries.

- Bank offices (and ATMs) disappearing.
- Post offices disappearing.
- Customer service disappearing (phone especially) in lieu of the always useless "check our frequently asked questions / forums"
- Cashiers disappearing in lieu of self checkout.

I'm sure it's not just Belgium. The problem appears to be that there's no big enough incentive to service the long-tail (P90) once most day-to-day stuff can be done by yourself, usually digital. Service as collateral damage of efficiency.

Should we ask the government to ensure that any company providing critical services (banking, telecommunications, distributing food) offers a minimum level of service? Because without outside incentive I only see us going further down this road.

Having a physical presence is a competitive advantage. It's the reason some people stick with Chase or their local credit union in lieu of someone else who is online-only with a higher interest rate.

While I agree with the point that the causes of the current trend might be intergenerational, I think that this very important to mind fact is irrelevant for the topic.

Social media is a problem to in societies and economies that are wildly different to the US, unless you mean us forming modern societies with groups bigger than 100 people is the problem or you mean those factors lead to the shape of social media as we have it today.

I would imagine that social media would fuck with teenagers in ancient Rome in a similar way than it would with todays teens. There is something universal there.

The problem is that social media in the way they are structured have zero incentives to build good structures for young adults to thrive in and 100% incentives to keep them in a state where they can be influenced. And that is an astable state of insecurity. Which is why many want to be influencer, because then at least you are the one doing the influencing.

> I think all the social media stuff is missing the mark.

I think phones may well be responsible. Before smartphones, people regularly experienced true downtime - unstructured moments with nothing to do except be in your surroundings, feel your own boredom, experience your thoughts. Now, the moment our attention isn’t occupied by something external, we reach for our phones to have something to fill the silence.

I believe this has negatively affected everyone’s mental health, but it stands to reason that children would be worse off because they’ve never known anything different: they’ve never had the opportunity to develop the ability to just be.

Its 5000/day for marketing, and if you are sending 5000 emails a day, you probably should have unsubscribe links. https://support.google.com/mail/answer/81126#requirements-5k You also need a link, not just list-unsubscribe, and it is specifically for marketing emails.

In my experience, Google is pretty accurate in figuring out transactional versus marketing. They don't tell their heuristics, but you don't think engineers who build web crawlers cannot build email classifiers? They have reliably been sorting my promotional emails from transaction emails for almost a decade now.

But off the top of my head when working on an email marketing platform: sender address, message subject and content, single message or bulk inbound at a given time, open rates, click rates, unsub rates, bounce rates. Part of sender reputation is ESPs building a profile of what kind of email you send from an address.
I watch for the subject line. I don't actually care what the content says...

> It's expected some cooperatio, but also some treason and backstabing.

That wouldn't be surprising, but I don't know if that is true.

I wouldn't not be surprised either way. A species survives not because its individuals do but because its genes do. Taking all available genes and spreading a subset of them amongst sperm-cells randomly is an interesting strategy.

It might be even optimal because the traits of a sperm-cell that make it survive during conception are not the same traits that help an individual thrive outside the womb.

If the 'fastest swimming' sperm-cell would always win, it would mean that in future generations faster and faster sperm-cells would win, but that would not necessarily help the survival of the species.

> If you are running servers passing passwords as command line arguments in that device, they have all that.

I make a point out of never doing that. It’s way too easy to accidentally expose things. For instance, doing a live demo with an audience, and using Ctrl-R out of muscle memory? Suddenly you flashed your password in front of everyone.

Generally, I’d recommend using a tool like Unix `pass` or your default OS keyring to store your secrets, then you can run `command1 --password=$(command2)` to feed a password from one command to another. If I really have to type something sensitive, I prefix the whole shell command with a space, which in many shells can be configured to mean that it doesn’t enter history. If you do so by accident, the shell history file can be edited in vim.
It would be nice to have something you can put in the footer which email clients recognize and strip when you are forwarding an email

I don't think Haidt has a political agenda. I've been following his work on this since he published his book on it a decade ago.

No, clustered around Eindhoven due to the former Philips Natlab [1,2] (Natuurkundig Laboratorium or 'Physics Laboratory') which served as an incubator for many new technologies. The company which is now ASML got its start there as well.

Ask HN: How are you able willingly give up control over your project?
Hey, I am an software dev apprentice since 2.5 yrs (which is a normal duration in Germany) and already passed my final exam. So now that my career as a developer is about to officially start I am wondering about why people are so keen on giving up control over major parts of their projects?

I have been learning a lot of web development and was really frustrated about the current state of it, the more I learned about it. Everything there feels like sticking together some Lego house with pre-built parts.

Authentication and payment I can get behind, as it's simply more secure to use a service that focuses on that. But I have to say, it really bothers me not knowing what the tech I use precisely does in the background and I am not willing to give up that kind of control.

So I personally stepped away from web development for now to learn more basics. Currently reading Beej's Guide to C and that sparked something in me. After having learnt C#, Go, Java-/Typescript and some Rust. I want to build applications from the ground up and fully understand what is happening under the hood. None of the languages I named allow me to do so, except for C.

I fear, with the growth of LLMs now, developers will give up more control then ever. How do you personally think about that? How are you able to give up that much of control over your application?
For that example: Any reason the server doesn’t just have an SSH server? Then you can use `git clone` in the “usual way”, using SSH certificate authentication.

The TQQQ ETF hasn't experienced a downturn as severe as the 2000 crash. Market crashes recur; it's unrealistic to expect a perpetual bull market. In a major crash, TQQQ could plummet by 99.9%, turning $1 million into $1,000. Being swap-based and not replicated, TQQQ could potentially drop to near zero and face delisting, as seen with some 3x leveraged ETFs before.
