For you personally it is a false dichotomy, for Israel its a real choice they had to make.

Hamas has proven that they seize the vast majority of aid sent to Gaza both during the current war and historically. That is why its leaders are billionaires.

"Israel isn't charged at the ICJ for self-defense" of course not, but that is what this war is, a war of self defense to ensure that what happened does not happen again. America is not striking the Houthis in self defense, Yemen is on the other side of the world from the US they are not a risk to America the nation at all.

Hamas is a clear threat to Israeli citizens.

Leaders can say whatever they want, they can only charge on actions. Indeed Hamas openly calls for the destruction of Israel and America. Israel has gone out of its way to avoid civilians, indeed far more than the US did in Iraq.

I hear what you are saying and I think your heart is in the right place but from my perspective if someone kills your citizens / family and remains an active threat, it is the governments responsibility to hunt them to the end of the earth and neutralize that threat in the most expedient manner possible.

> Wal-Mart and Target are the 'curated' everything stores.

Are you talking in-store or online? If I go to walmart.com or target.com and search for "usb cable", I don't see a dozen cables that fit 95% of use cases like in the store. Walmart shows thousands of results, the vast majority of which are marketplace sellers selling through walmart.com. Target has "only" 753 results, 600+ of which I find are not actually sold directly by Target if I dive into the filters. Basically it feels like Walmart and Target are trying to turn their online shopping experience into amazon.com.
Embeddings at lower layers aren’t going to be looking very far beyond nearby or adjacent embeddings as they refine their meaning. For a number like 3.14, the tokens 3 and 14 are important to each other, but entirely unimportant to understand the meaning of a question later in the context. It’s only at later layers that an embedding representing the concept of PI becomes important to the question embeddings.

As I understand it the positional encodings are calculated relative to the token in question. It’s not like 3 and 14 are unordered tokens from their own perspective.

No, one of our partners is a company called Bornemann and they are one of the OEMs listed there. So we've mostly worked with their devices and platform.
We are debating ethics and morality surrounding a rapidly evolving field, not regurgitating trivia about the arbitrary legal status quo in the country you live in. Think for a moment about the various events in human history perpetrated by a government which considered those actions perfectly legal, then come back with something to contribute to the discussion beyond a pathetic, thought-terminating appeal to authority.
Seeing this way too late, apologies. Apparently the company which invented and patented the technology is trying to get as much revenue from it as possible. I think this is starting to change as people finding alternative approaches or at least something meaningfully different so as to not be covered by the patent, but it has not translated into more competition as of yet.
> My DMT trip lasted 30 seconds

30 seconds? How long did it appear to you to last?
Does DMT have such a short half-life after you ingest it that the trip only lasts a short time?
The later one starts in life to have children the fewer, if any, they will have.

> Not leaving so soon and investing into your career and saving up money will eventually enable more people to choose parenthood.

That might be true if it was a choice made to save money but instead it's not a choice and there isn't any money.
Pumped to be able to explore this repo and watch it grow. There aren't a ton of large-scale Next/React OSS projects out there, and this one's absolutely premo. Also really great to see an OSS project in the personal finance space, especially considering the lack of other really good software out there for this usecase.
Yes, but IKEA is well-known, and is somewhat well known for product names like that.

I think there's a line worth drawing here: Pre-LLM voice interfaces required you to guess the command(s) the designer of the thinking were having in mind for the action you want to perform. With LLMs you can be 10ft into human-level vaguery and metaphorism and your intent might still survive.

So the difference wrt discovery is that you only have to gesture at what you wanna do and, if a matching action exists, there is a chance it will be understood.

I'd wager we'll see a renaissance of voice assistants with LLMs, especially once the good-enough ones can run on device.
I'm uninterested in your deviant proclivities.
I'm kind of tired of showing people evidence of rape, but yes, all the evidence does exist, and at some point you will see it. You can even find it today if you search around carefully.
The Walmart website is also a "marketplace". As it stands, the company's website is unreliable for finding goods and their prices and it is full of junk, which requires additional user-based filtering to find items of value. To me that is not "curated".
Granted, but IMHO both of you are right.

Current US mores ("be able to afford house, then start family") are driving the housing price:fertility correlation.

But those mores can change, say, to become more aligned with the non-US, multi-generational world.

And honestly, I think that would be a net positive on US culture.
Reading this thread is kinda bizarre to me. Do people actually ... talk to their phones? Like for real, not just in cringeworthy scripted adverts? I've never used any of these voice assistant things and nor does anyone I know. It always seemed like a huge gimmick to me. Am I just in a bubble?

The important difference isn't between monarchy or republic, but how the executive is chosen. Parliamentary democracies elect the prime minister. Presidential democracies have separate executive. For example, Ireland is parliamentary republic; the president is only head of state, the prime minister has all the power.
Sure, but this is literally the essence of failure analysis. Because you're demonstrating how nuance is essential to the process and how this means that there are no universal concepts. That simplicity and generalizability are often in contention. I'm not at why people don't understand that nuance is important because if it wasn't we wouldn't need experts. It's also weird to see people thinking nuance is required in their domain (explicitly or implicitly by means of assuming everyone else is an idiot for not understanding what they obtained through years of education. Yes I see the irony) but don't think it's required for other areas. Look at any online discussion here involving climate, nuclear, rockets, aerospace, and many other non programming stuff. Your example might also demonstrate this because the failure analysis is considerate of this by having a combination of fail open and fail closed gates in conjunction with the FBI not going to cut power to the bank until they arrive on scene which entirely defeats any terrorist or robber strategy because they the FBI are now the safe door and they're hard to pick open.
I always get a laugh from the section "Frequently bought together", which is often a obvious lie.
> we should literally have no government or society to speak of

I don't think society is dependent on government.

> would mean literally no power

Literally no power ensconced in the hands of a _single individual_, I think was the point.
Try Crossover. https://www.codeweavers.com/crossover You can install x64 Windows Steam on that and run at least some of your games without issues.
I don’t understand the platform thing, is that something to do with running on Windows? Why wouldn’t you just pip install? Why bring conda etc into the mix?

If you have conflicts then you have to reconcile those at point of initial install - pip deals with that for you. I’ve never had a situation in 15 years of Python packages where there wasn’t a working combination of versions.

These are genuine questions btw. I see these common complaints and wonder how I’ve not ever had issues with it.

It's a matter of very serious dispute if you were to read people who are actually on the left, or who live outside the USA.

The stated policies of the US Democratic Party barely correspond to those of leftist parties worldwide. Their actual policies when in power are even further from those of leftist parties worldwide.

So .. are they left of the US Republican Party? No question. Are they "on the left" in any broader sense? That depends very much on your conception of the nature and scope of the political space. For most people in most parts of the world, the US Democratic Party is a completely centrist party that would never be termed "leftist".
Absolutely agree. It would enable users to follow their `special' topics without having to churn through every other topic as well. Hopefully HN and AI will have a love child, soon?

My question is: should it actually cost 3Y? Sure, if you take an off-the-shelf design and triple it, it will cost around three times as much.

But there should be at least some efficiencies that can be gained. For example, energy conversion is not cheap. Rather than building solar inverters that produce 480VAC and using 480VAC pumps or pump drives, what if the pumps ran on DC?

Or, for more fanciness, what if the pump drives were themselves the MPPTs? Have the solar panels arranged so they produce a sufficient voltage for the motor drive bus even at minimum output, and make the drivers smart enough to run the right number of pumps at the right power and to do so while tracking the maximum power point? That’s a lot of power electronics that could be avoided.

Also, if a plant is willing to store a day’s worth of seawater and brine, then the intake and discharge systems only need to be sized for maximum daily average flow, not peak sunshine flow.

That makes complete sense! Thank you so much for your suggestions! The project is very new and it seems like there is a lot of interest! We are gonna relaunch this soon with proper sign up flow with cloud hosting for people to try! There are more things that are needed to be built, so currently coordinating with my open source developer friends and gonna relaunch with a different brand name.
I wonder how much of this is also due to either an unwillingness to live with someone or difficulty making friends? I know that where I live the rent on a 1 bedroom apartment would be difficult for most young people, but half of a 2 bedroom apartment would be do-able at minimum wage. For reference, I am thinking 1500 and 1800 per month respectively for rent on 1 and 2 bedroom apartments, which seems to be the going rate locally for a decent but not luxury place.And local minimum wage is 15 an hour
Need to watch the video still but my assumption was since it’s illegal/frowned upon to advertise gambling, especially to minors. This is just an earth way to put ad… I mean streams of gambling in front of a large audience.
The longer total fertility rate is held down, the firmer the trajectory becomes. Even countries with robust natalist subsidy policies cannot materially lift the TFR.

"They are bombing refugee camps"
Are there terrorists in these camps?
Are there tunnels under these camps?

"Making extremely cruel and deranged TikToks in destroyed homes"
This is war... Soldiers have dehumanized their enemies since the beginning of time. Hamas actually has women and children they are holding hostage.

What is Israel's other option?
Let Hamas go to do it again? Hamas is very open even during this war in stating their goal is to destroy Israel and the US and wanting to repeat their killing of civilians.

So again, serious question.
What is Israel's alternative to the invasion?
How do they immediately stop Hamas and prevent them from attacking Israel again with out doing what they are doing now?

I think you will find, if you are serious that your response is "I don't know"

Both of your options are invalid as choosing either does not resolve Israel's current situation which is that they have an openly genocidal terrorist army on their border and they can either eradicate it or allow it to continue to rape, murder and torture. Lets not forget that hamas still has a hundred civilians they have kidnapped, many of them women that they are refusing to return even though they had agreed to; likely because of what has been done to them in captivity.

This is a fight for survival for both sides, its ugly but it has happened over and over through history. It will happen many more times. Its just humanity.

Could it be that they lived on fish? From inside the water, to a fish, a polar bear could be just a cloud. Waterfalls and currents are pretty bright as well.

Godwin's Law.*

If you're from a certain background it's exactly as described. In academia, frankly probably everywhere but tech, experiments as a term of art require consent when they involve humans.

* n.b. you really should have left it out, it was a good post through "hyperbole", got close-minded in the next sentence, then just sort of blew the hatch doors off. Sometimes we just don't know something someone else knows. Not understanding someone else doesn't require they have a psychological condition, much less one worth noting.
We are seeing the same correlations in Europe, even in multigenerational-friendly countries; so this is not anything anyone has seen before.
Canada is bicameral but with a dysfunctional senate, meaning that it's effectively a unicameral system - and it's a highly diverse country.
Looks cool. This is kind of like streamlit, which (I think) tried to escape the limitations of notebooks by giving you an API to quickly make a shareable app with sliders/charts etc. (Yet it retains some notebook concepts like 'cells').

Marimo kind of takes the reactive widgets of streamlit and brings them back into a notebook-like UI, and provides a way to export the notebooks into shareable apps.
The author is conflating two things, the fact that change has occurred with the rate of the change. And that one species is threatened vs entire ecosystems.

I don't think there is anyone scientist saying if earth transitioned slowly over the course of thousands of years to a higher temperature there would be a mass extinction. We know for a fact from our recent ice ages thawing and freezing that this isn't the case. The rate of change is totally different. The Holocene warm period was slightly warmer than our preindustrial era and had CO2 levels around 300ppm. The Eemian period was 1-2C warmer than preindustrial society and had 280ppm of CO2 (and sea levels were about 30m higher). Those periods of warmth happened SLOWLY over the course of thousands if not tens of thousands of years. We've gone from ~280ppm to ~420ppm of CO2 in less than 300 years, half of it happened in the last 30 years. (And it's really 500ppm if you add methane and other greenhouse gases.) The last time atmospheric concentrations were this high was 2-3 million years ago and temps were 4-5C higher with sea levels at 60m higher than today.

My point is that it is the meteoric rise on a geological timeframe of CO2 that is the issue. If the sea ice melts but also the surrounding tundra, boreal forest, and marine ecosystems collapse what would an apex predator like a polar bear survive on?

I also think focusing solely on polar bears is bit of misguided when we're talking about the effects of climate change. They are one species and deciding whether or not things are bad given the outcome of that one species is misguided. We're talking about complex interdependent ecosystems where it's estimated half of all species on the planet are experiencing some stage of decline. Will polars survive? Who knows! They could interbreed with grizzlies and form a new species, the real question is do we want to continue making their existence our own more difficult and less likely?

Even worse, most people, including politicians, are completely incapable to understand exponential processes and how fast population decline can occur and how difficult is to recover from it.
I miss the times where Amazon search was dumber. Nothing more infuriating than typing an exact model number and the exact thing you're not looking for not appearing or be buried in a mountain of other products, some of them not even related to what you're looking for, because of some stupid personalization algorithm that is too smart for its own good.

Category and product pages are completely useless, sorting by any attribute does something, but that something is anything but sorting.

Not to mention that if by sheer luck you find whatever you want to find, be sure to order it immediately or at least add it to your cart. No guarantees that the search you did now will work ever again.
More power than the Government has?

Which company or individual has nuclear weapons?
Could send you to war like Russia in Ukraine to die?
Could print as much money as they want.
Can raise arbitrary taxes and people have to pay or you just incarcerate them.
Can send you to prison.
Spy everything you do by force.

Governments can kill you, rob you, kidnap you, spy you, without consequences.

I don't know any individual or company with as much power as Governments have.
Do you think people think that Humanity will go extinct because of climate change?

I certainly don't.

However people DO think that in the near future HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF PEOPLE will either die from climate change, or worse ([citation needed]), become refugees and a drain on the parts of the world that will not have the resources to keep them alive and maintain a high standard of living for everyone else.

Our children and our children's children in the west will have a meaningfully worse standard of living, and an insane amount of calories will be burnt on trying to figure out how to act reactively to changes to the sea levels, temperature spikes, extreme weather events, loss of fresh water, (and yes, those climate refugees). Instead of just acting proactively now (and really, yesterday) to reduce fossil fuel usage.
Agree. I also use an iPhone. I have a Pixel running Graphene (I refuse to do Googled Android, or Chrome) and I want to like it, I really do, but I always go back to the iPhone. I don’t feel like a cult member (that’s what they all say…).

I’ve realised that while I consider my laptop a computer, to which I need full access and control, the phone for me is basically an appliance. It’s like my washing machine but for messaging, web browsing, and ordering shit. Conceptually I want it to be unencumbered and open source, but in reality I try not to spend all day staring at it and when I do have to I just want it to work. (I get it, that’s how they get you! I’ll donate money to fixing that, but I don't have the time, patience, or energy to use the alternatives in their current state.)
it depends on your timeline perspective...in 1000 years time when all the water has boiled out and long time after all humans have disappeared, will it matter if it happened in 2150 or in 2487?
They raised 22 million a few months ago. So, it looks like they are doing well. Might be worth reaching out again if that's still relevant to you. I've talked to a few of their people on a couple of occasions and they were pretty competent and pleasant to deal with.
That’s right — my main idea with the library is to make it super simple for front end engineers to store preferences/flags server side without needing backend engineering work. Basically as simple as using localStorage itself :)
While I understand what you are saying, there really has been a phase shift from "By default, I expect a given game to not work in Linux" to "By default, I expect a given game to work in Linux".

Not being a multiplayer game kind of guy, my Steam Deck currently runs all but one of my Steam games, according to ProtonDB scanning my collection. They don't all play well on the Steam Deck itself due to input expectations mismatch, but they run. This is definitely a non-trivial change in the past few years versus what it was like, say, ten years ago. I no longer even check before installing a game and have to remind myself I really ought to check before purchasing, because it's so rarely a concern anymore.
