I agree that there are other knobs to bee turned, but housing will most probably get in the way of that, as the people earning 600k per year will chase out of the housing market the people who will go with their passion.

Similar (and related) discussion when it comes to education, people earning 600k per year will be able to provide better education opportunities to their children compared to the passionate but earning-less-money people, and if you're part of the second group at some point it will become harder and harder to explain to your spouse that your kids won't get the same chances in life compared to your friends' children because you're going for passion over money, unlike said friends.

I know that all this sounds very mundane but it's part of day to day life, maybe the Soviets had a good idea when they basically built scientists-only cities in the middle of Siberia or somewhere like that.

You know I work with embedded developers doing C for microcontrollers for battery management systems, me being not familiar at all with that kind of code I found highly fascinating how there wasn't a single case of manually allocated memory anywhere in this huge codebase, everything was statically allocated. Almost no pointers around to be seen, in C code nonetheless.

So different from how I coded C back when I was doing (non-embedded) C development. The downsides of course was that everything had to go against a (very, very small) RAM budget, we once asked to have UUIDs in the system for better cloud integration and that was a no-go (they didn't even _support_ strings)

Another interesting thing was that all variables (and I mean ALL) were global, so even the stack for function calls was very small

But the decision to be misogynistic is independent of the decision to be celibate or not. And voluntary misogyny is the defining characteristic of the term "incel". There are many non-misogynistic non-inceles who want to get laid but can't for other reasons than choosing to hate women.

Having an occasional Indian takeout isn't living it up, but having $120 Indian takeout every night and spending $43,800 a year on dinner is.

We will all have different definitions of living it up, but I would say you can live a good food lifestyle if you can afford HelloFresh/BlueApron or high quality ingredients for cooking and go out 1-2 times a week.
Hitting Ctrl+S every few minutes has basically become a compulsive behavior for me at this point, for any program (not just video editors).
The thing is, all the stuff you’re listing as things they suck at properly detecting, filtering, categorizing, they used to be extremely good at. The google search that exists today is markedly worse than the Google search of 5 years ago. Wtf happened to cause search to just rot away into a useless mess of results that used to be very high quality? It’s such a night and day regression that I’ve legit wondered if this is a sign of the Mandela effect.
The multiplayer one on OpenTTD is a bit addictive, but each game takes about 3 hours, and the other players are very very good.

But then you didn't hate women - in fact, you managed to be funny and playful with them, in a way that translates quite well to the romance context. See the difference? This is where the incel goes off track.
As another paying user of Kagi I wonder what prevented you from using another search engine for the six hours that Kagi was unavailable. Search engines are not like your email provider or ISP in that you're locked in.
Remind me to make some stuff in Iran and ship it through a third party to the US and see what happens.
Well, that's the same for all documents. You can just make them up, it's not that hard with 5 minutes of photoshop.

But if there is a control and a manufacturer get caught lying about the provenance they are going to have a bad time (or the car manufacturer/battery resellers which didn't do their due diligence).
You’re assuming these are separate events.
> Incels will overestimate women’s minimum standards for mate-preferences. They will also overemphasize the importance of physical attractiveness and financial prospects and under emphasize the importance of kindness, intelligence, and humor

I feel like this is the most obvious answer and most in line with everyday experience.

There are so many men who are victims of a society that tells them to work hard. With enough hard work any man can look good and make money. "Kindness, intelligence, and humor" are not only not required, but often seen as weakness. There's some merit to thinking that way because when things get tough those traits aren't going to help you very much. The world is extremely favorable towards men that know how to be successful solo. This doesn't necessarily attract women though, especially not good women, so here we are.

Compounding this effect is that the latest generations of women are on the same path valuing the shallow things in life and only knowing how to work, but not live.
I am afraid that some developers will drop Apple payments all together and I will have to type my credit card info inside of low-quality apps. Currently I just press ok after a Face ID.

In my limited experience, payments for such services are handled outside the iOS app. Simultaneously you're prohibited from directing users to make a purchase on your website and it's up to you to fit this square peg in a round hole, usually through cryptic messages which vaguely remind your users that they have to buy the subscription elsewhere, wink wink.
The Coop and Migros ones generally work well I find too, although if you get an age checked item, they can be a bit slow in some stores to acknowledge you.

The touch screens for the ones in Manor are terrible OTH, they seem to require a very precise light touch, but not too light, I find it strange that the more "upmarket" Manor has the worst ones.
At least one Turkish website (obilet) also offers this info. I consider this whenever I purchase a ticket.
Is there a clear argument that I can read without spending more than 15 minutes of my time reading the argument? If such an argument exists somewhere, can you point to it?

Also note we were talking about modern day LLM AIs here, and their descendants. We were not talking about science fiction AGIs. Unless of course you have an argument as to how one of these LLMs somehow descends into an AGI.

>That is when the layoffs are projected to drop and hiring is expected to keep up.

Or this could be the new normal.
True. I suppose the main difference is that nobody (in their right mind) was ever advocating for rewriting fundamental system components such as Linux (the kernel) and all the GNU system utilities in Java/Perl/JavaScript. If they were, then I completely missed them.
Getting lost on the 0.1% edge cases or improvements is why I never finish side projects, either.
And there it is, completely uncalled for. It’s unfortunate that I can predict the hate that people will post.

This is a great idea actually, this way you could also enforce that all the words appear _exactly once_ (by rejecting during sampling words that were already in the answer) which seemed to be a significant issue for me when I tried this.

All other things being equal, people normally like to live in an area where local government look after their people. Or at the very least, don't actively write legislation that is designed to harm you for no compelling reason.

My Danish grandpa used to mock our Norwegian numbers (who is he to speak, with the Danish number system being completely wack, heh), by saying toti-en, toti-to etc as 21, 22, because he found it funny that we had a different word for 20 than for the other tens.
Ah okay, it wasn’t clear that you were talking about explicit control over this through Vector API and similar.

I often defend Apple. I don't want to defend Apple on this current topic: I think taking a cut of out-of-app physical purchases/subscriptions is ridiculous and should be legally challenged.

However...

> All they do is steal 30% from society that could be used for more productive purposes than make a few people who already have everything even richer.

If you're gonna argue that, you have to inspect the edges of this position. Are you willing to let go of your own shares? Or the interest on your pension (or equivalent), which comes via the roughly the same route you're arguing against. If you own your own company, do you share most/all profits with your staff (rather than pay a wage), or your shareholders? This is all wrapped up together.

IMO, To make such a claim, you need really to argue against the system these "rich people" operate in as much, if not more than, the individual cases.
For most people, sympathy and empathy for other humans ends when those humans themselves show no sympathy or empathy for a group of other humans.

To give an example: capital punishment.

In practice this is an interesting problem to tackle though. One can completely denounce and shame people for their actions or ideologies, while at the same time showing some sympathy/empathy in wanting to address the root causes of why those people are like they are.
Thanks! I definitely have to do some readup on that!
What you describe is the epitome of gatekeeping.

Epic developed a cross-platform game that runs on half a dozen platforms. The appeal of the game is exactly because of that. And you claim that Epic should pay 30% to Apple, because "we are friends with rich people".

Not to mention that the "is actually providing Epic a ton of value and profit" claim is completely bollocks. Can you point to any iOS-exclusive games that matter out there? Ah, right. They don't exist. Because there's (comparatively) very little money in iOS gaming.
It is obviously about preventing Chinese battery manufacturers selling in Europe.

The problem for EU is that EU car companies make a lot of money in China so banning Chinese cars here makes us open for retaliation.

Nynorsk and Bokmål are both _written_ forms only. Norwegian spoken language is a huge continuum of dialects - there's no official spoken Norwegian (unlike e.g. Swedish, where something called "rikssvensk" was introduced by the authorities - "national spoken Swedish").

What you will find though is that there are a couple of scenarios where people will kind of speak the written form. One is, or at least used to be, newscasters on TV. They used to have rules which limited the kind of speech used, for reasons. And, as the news were essentially read from a script.. you speak it like it's written. Be that Bokmål or Nynorsk. And that's where you will find spoken Bokmål (or Nynorsk).. when reading aloud. And, as I mentioned in another comment.. when teaching people Norwegian. In the beginning you kind of speak the written form, otherwise the student would be totally confused.

That is the equivalent of telling someone who doesn't like the current dictator to "go live in the desert".

Remember: I did not bring up the bad analogy. Someone abusing their quasi-monopolistic position to charge high fees is not the same as a tax. This was the point of my post. And sure we can pretend it is the same and bend reality till it fits, but that seems to me more like an idological expedition, than an insightful exploration.
> How do you handle the I and D term then?

You recalculate the D term every iteration, so it doesn’t matter?

The ugly truth about the I term is that in practice people very often leave it at zero. We sometimes call these controllers PD controllers.

Especialy in a game where you don’t have sticky actuators and miscalibrated sensors this is usually more than enough for hapiness.
Ikr. That's a big incentive to be evil! Special snowflakes will vouch for you no matter what
I think when the engine, in some circumstances, can bypass all the EV stuff and directly drive the transmission (parallel ev system) its more efficient (maybe that happens under heavy load, like highway driving, or accelerating). It uses a mechanism I think is called something like a power split device. The serial ev system, which is basically a tesla with a portable gas generator in the trunk, is less efficient because the engine power always goes through the electric motor, rather than sometimes directly driving the transmission.

…to elucidate a bit, when tracing the rays on the left side of the image, the sign of u is -1, so we're trying to intersect a sphere at (x-1, y-1, z), and on the right side similarly one at (x+1, y+1, z). This works because none of the left-side rays can even in theory hit the right-side sphere and vice versa. It's a very simple version of space partitioning optimization. And when tracing the reflected rays, we flip the sign of i, because there's no self-reflection – the left-hand sphere can only reflect the right-hand one and vice versa.

"Malthus" is taught in high school. The idea comes up all over intellectual history and has yet to pan out. One of these days.
> 1. Volume * conversion

That's the key, it's the only two variables that matters. However, this is also the reason why it's hard for a lot of men to get a mate:

Number of interactions IRL is harder and harder to get with the cultural shift to online apps and the demonization of male appraoch and behavior ("sexual harassment", "male gaze", "toxic masculinity"). And voicing about being single is associated with negative traits such as being misogynistic to the point research paper are published...

Then regarding the conversion rate, when in the low single digit, it's rapidly hard to get motivated after facing dozens or hundreds of rejection.
The failed samnorsk reform did have a silver lining.

Around high school I figured out that because of it, a shocking amount of Nynorsk grammar was secretly optional and the Bokmål version was very often valid Nynorsk.

So I started just writing my essays in Bokmål and then fixing the errors in post, so to speak. Initially my teacher tried to fail me for this, but she lost that battle.

I vehemently hate Nynorsk, or at least the fact that it's supposed to be "equal" to bokmål. It was a neat idea and all, but I honestly think it should only be seen as an archaic language used for poetry and literature. And only taught to students who want to delve deeper into that, not forced onto you starting in 8th grade.
In the heart of India's agricultural tapestry, farmers often find themselves turning to Mahindra & Mahindra as their steadfast ally in the field. This esteemed tractor company has earned its stripes by consistently delivering a diverse range of reliable and innovative tractors. Mahindra's commitment to addressing the unique needs of Indian farmers, coupled with a reputation for durability, places it at the forefront of the agricultural machinery landscape.

"First they invented the smart phone and App Store"

No they did not. The first iPhone was released on June 2007 and Apple had no intent to give anybody else the ability to develop any app for their phone. In fact Steve Jobs was vehemently against any app store.

Apple only introduced app store on the second year of its first iPhone launch, one day before release of new iPhone 3G.

Other types of smart phones and app stores existed before Apple.

French law still applies there, therefore this one. Failing that there's a few islands in the Caribbean, and French Guiana that are in the EU.
I've only read a little about this, but from what I understand, it's hard to find places that are actually good for this - and the volume of water you need to produce a significant amount of energy is quite large for given place where you can get enough height.

My intuition is it's probably better to just over-deploy wind and other renewables - pumps and turbines are not exactly free or easy to maintain either.

Yes, there were some rules holding back anatomy to some extent at certain times, but really pretty much free for all in a lot of other areas.

Those health freaks would do the right things why? Why would other communities not seek to stop or block them from doing what they are doing (these experiments would have at times pretty dire consequences)? Why would there be zero rules for what those health freaks are doing? There is just no reason to assume this would just work out.

Why hasn't the internet brought insane advances in science if it is such a force multiplier for it?

In the very very rare case you might need it, than I guess, yeah.

But if it turns out to be a real problem, it might still be possible that they will add a way to disable checks with the foreign memory API. It would actually allow for a better user experience, you could do “debug” builds with extensive checking for correctness, which could be disabled via some flag.

Yes. I would say it's more to do with a societal restructuring and changing things have been around for 1000s of years and expecting the past 50 years to just fundamentally alter humanity and for there to be no negative outcomes. And the assumption that everything prior to 50 years ago in how society was structured was bad because it was traditional. And then acting surprised when it doesn't translate into even replacement birthrates.

Have you noticed that authors and artists love sharing their inspirations? Let's say you're an up-and-coming author. In an interview, you list your sources of inspiration.

Using your logic, why does the creative community celebrate you and your inspirations instead of crying foul like they are with LLMs?
