I'm not sure of your point.

Are you saying that all previous studies of marijuana are still valid, and that strength hasn't gone up?
Hacker News was always about people sharing their project ideas, that’s why there is a whole Show HN section here.
In the SF Bay area, electricity prices are so high with PGE, it's more cost effective to burn gasoline in my Gen1 Chevy Volt if the price of gas is below $4.50 a gallon.
I think you're letting your imagination run away. There's a time and place for that, but I think the Hacker News analogy is inappropriate here.

I think you're missing on the big value of Hacker News: It's excellent moderators and community. This can only happen because it is centralized.

Hacker News already has an API. You can write a clone of Hacker News that is API compatible, open source it, and put a big "host on xxx" button on your GitHub repo; but you won't have the community, and you won't have the awesome moderation from Deng.

Even when we look at successful decentralized products like BitTorrent, they tend to build on tiny centralized parts: The Pirate Bay, where the trackers are. The fact that BitTorrent handwaves around some seed nodes...

Getting back to "letting your imagine run away." I think you need to drop the Hacker News analogy and describe what you're trying to build in non-technical terms: Who is it for, what does it do, why does it do it, where do people use it, and why do they use it?

Otherwise, without starting with some kind of use cases, you're just describing typical design patterns and features of a backend that would apply to any social network or blogging platform.
The previous ceo gutted their safety culture to bare minimum the plane still able to achieve flight. Anything else is a cost that hinder his bonus. I really wish wistleblowers willing to leak out the risk-cost assessment excel spreadsheet that rumor to exist a decade. Not only MAX, their older models which still in production also have very lax production supervision I read in one of the article back when their MAX planes crashed.
Imagine you were leveraged long ETF news, then the fake news started then descended in liquidation,your long leverage has been closed and you have no more money to buy now.

That fake news cleaned up a lot of leveraged bets up and down.

> Intermittent fasting should work as long as the specific protocol doesn't decrease leptin levels such that the obese body enters starvation mode. In my opinion, the most workable approach for people is to try their best to completely eliminate carbs Monday-Friday, eat all the carbs they want on the weekends, and do the bare minimum of a 10-minutes HIIT routine every other day.

This is just calorie cycling with extra steps.

It doesn't honestly matter if it is 5 days on, 2 days off, or 2 months on, 2 weeks off. It is up to a person's individual biology. When the scale stops moving, up calorie intake to the extent that the scale doesn't move up more than a smidge, wait a bit, then drop calories again.

TKD, CKD, intermittent fasting, dirty keto, keto with a once a month weekend pizza binge, whatever, almost any combo of "eat less for awhile, then eat normal for little bit, then eat less again".
Thanks for the kind words. I'll provide a decent reply tomorrow. Right now I'm about to turn in, and learned a long time ago that I should not write or program when I'm tired :-/

The OpenAI API is currently advertising their preview to my clients as `gpt-4-1106-preview`. I've been calling the Q4 2023 4-series stuff `4.5` or `4.5-preview` to distinguish it from the pre-big-announcement stuff.

I don't recall if I saw any press calling anything `4.5`, but it's a different model in some important ways (one suspects better/cheaper quantization at a minimum) and since they've used `.5` for point releases in the past it seemed the most consistent with their historical versioning.

Over the years, the popularity of email marketing has stayed consistent. And if you master how to do it effectively, it can help you take relationships with old and new subscribers on your email list to the next level, turn leads into customers, drive sales, and much more.

But that is easier said than done, as this marketing channel requires you to devise an email marketing strategy, come up with creative email marketing ideas, and send out engaging content as often as a few times a week.

If you find yourself struggling in this scenario, you’re in luck, as this article will give you useful inspiration for your next email marketing campaign, thus making at least the creative aspect less of a burden. Let’s dig in!

The Illustrated Network: How TCP/IP Works in a Modern Network by Walter Goralski.

I've been fascinated by North Korea for several years, but could not ever imagine this could work there if not conpletely run by their own regime (and probably closed off to the rest of the world).

> Find a double decker bus (if you work at a tech company some big silicon valley tech busses are double decker) and sit in one for a drive, and look down into the cabins of people's cars. I'd say a good 30-50% of them are on their phone.

I've heard similar things from semi-truck drivers. People barreling down the Interstate at 70+ mph, eyes looking at their phone as they shift left and right in their lane.

Have a look at what happened to Replika AI. The optics of getting into that sort of thing for OpenAI wouldn't be worth it.
GPS was trivially attackable from inception, that was not a design requirement given its purpose. The purpose of GPS was to precisely measure the planet in peacetime. A unique core capability of the US military is extremely precise INS technology, the capabilities and precision of which are closely guarded secrets and under continuous R&D. The precision of INS is dependent on the precision of your world model. GPS allowed extremely precise world models to be built globally, which provided the data model INS needs to be maximally effective. In wartime the GPS system can be killed by any near-peer adversary, but the damage has already been done to the extent inertial targeting systems have a precise model of the world.

No US military system relies on GPS for navigation. Military navigation systems use GPS as an untrusted source for fine-tuning inertial navigation within tight error bounds. Against US military systems, successfully spoofing GPS might buy you several meters of deviation. This only affects the cheapest US guidance systems, since most weapons have active terminal guidance. It is worth noting that GPS corrections are being phased out in US weapon systems, purportedly due to improvements in INS tech that moot the value of GPS corrections.

The tl;dr: GPS was developed to build a precise model of the world in peacetime that could be fed to inertial targeting and navigation systems in the complete absence of GPS. In that, it has been a massive success. US military systems have never relied on GPS for anything important. Contrary to popular media, the US has never produced GPS-guided weapons, even the cheapest systems are INS at their core.

Civilian systems use GPS for navigation, against its design, because they can mostly ignore its trivial susceptibility to hostile actors.

Isn't that just a case of starting it with `pw-jack` so that it thinks jack is available? That's what I do with Guitarix.
Are you sure about that? Parent was not referring to the "APP -> Data controls -> Chat History & Training" Radio Button which would delete your history older than 30 days, but rather to a specific form you can use to opt out.

Coincidentally I just used this form yesterday and got the confirmation about opting out.

Same as any non-LEO satellite link (probably like, O(700 ms) latency? About the same as our experiments in Greenland...). Not great, but fine for administration and light vimming. The worst was when I had to update some py2 to py3 code after a system was updated, and there was no way to test except on the South Pole machine. The places where bytes vs. strings bite you when dealing with serial devices are plentiful...

> At the same time, the PUC initiated a proceeding to review progress of Castle & Cooke Resorts Lanai Wind Project, given C&C’s sale of its holdings to tech billionaire Larry Ellison about a year earlier. The docket covered “the uncertainty over Castle & Cooke Properties Inc.’s ability to develop the Lanai Wind Project” as a result of the sale, Tuesday’s filing said.

Even before opening the article I had a feeling I would see Ellison's name _somewhere_. I don't know if the review trigger was an excuse, just annoyance at it being Ellison, or what, but wild how a single person can have so much of an effect.
AFAIK, Plus has always trained on your conversation data. Enterprise and the API do not.

Another factor not mentioned is when you exercise you get better at it over time. So even though you're doing the same amount, same perceived effort each day, you're actually burning much more.

The CD archive was actually published by an unaffiliated company that specialized in bundling up public data repositories onto CD-ROM. NMSU was never involved in the publishing of physical artifacts.
"Change" could mean a careless, incompetent or reckless company going out of business, a net positive for possible future victims of their conduct.
If the gentrification of California's housing market turns you off, you probably shouldn't reciprocate by gentrifying the ownership of North Korean property from abroad. Chances are if their economy stabilizes it won't be under a government that even respects your claims to property in the first place.

From a logical and moral point-of-view, I think there are better investments to research.
Double dip and you’re in shit. I’m not the only one who has cancelled when they started charging for adverts, and that impacts the larger Amazon ecosystem too as I now no longer instinctively buy everything from Amazon.
How will they implement tracking of bitcoin provenance in their new systems? Maybe they can use some proof-of-work blockchain tech for that, I heard it is a really good fit for those use cases :^)
TikTok's is far more addictive and engaging. instagram content is mostly just reposted TikTok for millennials to see two weeks later. Pause and check out the same content on TikTok and you'll see far more engagement and be sucked into the rabbit hole just for watching.
Israel owns our politicians and those who cross them are cut off and via AIPAC they run candidates to replace them.

Losing US support? In what circumstances? We are printing billions to send to Israel with zero oversight.

They launched a $100 million fund to oust “the squad“ & offered $20 million to people to run against them.

Now take a look over on Maui, in La Haina, where US citizens are still having to pay mortgages on the houses that were burned to the ground. Dust & Ash. Where are our aircraft carriers from the pacific fleet bringing infrastructure, supplies, Seabees, Army Corps of engineering and the best minds to rebuild OUR OWN GOD DAMNED communities?

Between AIPAC & DMFI they have hands on most politicians.

Look at the amount of money they’ve spent on Biden—-who proudly states his is a Zionist. Look at Blinken & his background—Google him and his family.

There is zero means to even cobble up a group of politicians to vote against anything regarding Israel.

39 US STATES have laws outlawing BDS or any boycott of Israel if you work for state funded positions. Why? Who funded those laws?

There is zero neutrality & how on earth does our American government portray themselves as diplomats or influencers towards Israel? Or earnest negotiators?

Between our secret military bases there and arms depots and unlimited funding for weapons & aid.

The American public is not aligned with that at all, but that doesn’t matter. PACS & Dark money controls this. Feeding the military industrial complex.

It will take other governments & international courts to change this. We’ll see what happens on Thursday & Friday.

The US has rendered the UN impotent with their security council vetoes.

AIPAC & DMFI should be regulated as foreign lobbyists.
Teens often don't want to mingle with their parents/adults online, so they find their own place and many continue using it when they become adults.

To me, Kotlin is so similar to Java that it might just survive in the way that Elixir and Erlang coexist.

The future is very certain. Mainline Java has been cherry picking the best features from these languages after there's sufficient traction and the issues have already surfaced. Since the tooling has to support both Java and some other contender, Java always gets first-class support. Using any of the alternative JVM languages (except maybe Clojure) gives you better syntax, somewhat better abstractions for a few years, and worse tooling. And syntax is overrated. Java might be verbose, but it's well-understood, and it's not actually what slows development.
A trade like this (partly) is what blew up 3AC. Borrowing has cost and if futures funding premium turns against you and your perceived arb, along with a further divergence against you, it’s game over. Funnily enough that GBTC gap basically closed today; it was a >30% discount when 3AC died. Very nice if you get paid to hedge! Not so nice when you’re paying 0.1% in hourly funding premium.

> they have connections to the policy team,” Kaganovitch told The Intercept, referring to the personnel at social media firms who set rules for permissible speech. “Most of them are product managers, software developers. …

I wonder if they see how the whole thing backfires. “Look how we conspire with our secret workers integrated into the larger media and tech companies…”

I suppose the idea was that it wouldn’t be made too public.
You can, but it's not simple in the context of an ETP, due to all the infrastructure in between the parties with an ownership interest and the assets.

If we ignore that:

Dumbest version: You give everyone a list of all the liabilities. They make sure they are in there themselves. Anyone left out isn't entitled to the assets in an insolvency, so there is an incentive to check.

This isn't very efficient, giving everyone the whole list. But make a hash tree with each node carrying a hash and the sum of liabilities below it. Show each user their log2() sized proof. Much more efficient.

This leaks information about the distribution of ownership. Replace the values with pedersen commitment (and range proofs on their sums), and only open the top and bottom ones.

There is a fine writeup on the subject here: https://web.archive.org/web/20170928054354/https://iwilcox.m...

Its purpose is to provide an escape hatch from fiat currency that steals people's wealth, available to everyone in the world, ultimately shutting down the global scam that is central banking.

It is the hardest money that mankind has ever seen, digital, with an issuance schedule that is set in stone - no select few people have the ability to effortlessly print it, stealing the wealth of the rest and corrupting the world at its core, causing third world poverty, endless wars, corrupt media etc.
Actually a huge amount of Bitcoin that people bought from large institutions over the last 5 - 10 years was already not on the blockchain.

(1) a customer would go to an exchange’s website and purchase 1 Bitcoin

(2) the exchange would add 1 to an internal counter representing the Bitcoin balance for that customer on their internal SQL database

(3) the exchange would use / trade that money sent by the customer to try to make a profit before the customer sold their Bitcoin and withdrew their money

This is how big scandals like FTX and others disasters happened. Also known as “fractional banking”
one thing i definitely liked about kotlin was reduced verbosity. otherwise all the other points, you made me ponder a bit. let's see where kotlin goes.
That's how things typically take off, not on the first attempt. Depends on what's different this time.

This is a terrible point because what philosophers know have nothing to do with what the general public needs to learn right now. The idea of a "fact" absolutely needs revising for almost all people.
Markets are not zero sum. Value is "created* in a growing market.
“The planet is fine. The people are fucked.”

Environmentalism will only matter once it’s not so profitable to ignore.

Is it good that this plant is dumping a bunch of heat into the ocean? Probably not, but it made some people’s lives better for some number of years. Hopefully the long term consequences don’t make some large number of people’s lives much worse for a longer number of years.
More likely that it would affect electricity cables and knock out power in a lot of areas. But that would be true regardless of the power source.

Batteries, like coal plants should be pretty resilient. Wind turbines should be mostly fine as well. The Chinese actually have lots of off shore wind and seasonal typhoons. You can expect some percentage of turbines to need maintenance after that probably. But overall it should be fine. Solar panels basically produce less power with cloud cover. And if they aren't mounted properly there might be some storm damage. But otherwise, that should be fine too. Hail would be a bigger challenge than wind. There were some reports of freakishly large hail stones destroying some solar panels a while back.

Mostly, having a lot of decentralized power generation in the form of wind turbines and solar panels all over the place is a good idea from a resilience point of view.
These days the question is more about which LLM is second best. It’s very tight while ChatGPT 4 is in its own league.
Sure... I work on experiments where we basically we instrument ice sheets with radio antennas and look for radio emission that might come from really energetic particles smashing into the ice. One of the experiments I work on (the Askaryan Radio Array) is at the South Pole. Each detector has a single board computer to take data and such. They are cabled via fiber to the IceCube lab at Pole, where data is relayed to. About half the time, the South Pole has internet either via NASA satellites or DSCS (there is also Iridium all the time, but that is not for general use), and via some jump hosts, I can ssh into the detectors.
You might want to read the Bitcoin whitepaper. There is zero ambiguity in the situation you describe. That is the essence of the proof-of-work (or proof-of-stake, take your pick) solution to the Byzantine generals problem.
