It's DNS.

Change your DNS to something else that isn't using CloudFlare and this won't happen. Cloudflare isn't compatible with configurations used by archive.is . You can search "cloudflare DNS hackernews" with your favorite engine to find extensive and comprehensive details about what's happening and why.

Take control of your DNS - using your ISP's default never benefits you, and almost certainly benefits them, and almost certainly at the expense of your time, effort, and comfort. Find a DNS setup that you like that isn't using cloudflare, doesn't censor you, doesn't funnel you into walled gardens or censorship bubbles or otherwise try to position itself as a gatekeeper between you and the internet.

Good luck!
The CCB is ~6k/year cash. That's not healthcare. It's means tested, but bigger than the $50/mo baby bonus my mom got in the 70s. And 1 full year (combined) for maternity and paternity is much more than the US.

I would say it in reverse: BECAUSE 40 years of trying to raise TFR has absolutely failed in every advanced nation on the planet, Canada has chosen immigration as the only practical path.

Or you tell me - is there somewhere you think we should copy? Or are you just blaming 40 years of Canadian government for a global phenomenon?

The ex-Soviet states have had some recent gains, but those look more like a rebound from the total collapse of the 80s. And they are all stabilizing around the new-normal 1.8. I don't think there are any lessons there. Hungary has struggled to recover from the post-Soviet low of 1.3, and has almost reached the might peak of 1.6!

Small, microscopic, negative feedback: I'd recommend an extra-critical eye when relying on GPT heavily for the 'skeleton' of an essay, everything becomes lists of lists of lists of lists instead of writing. The feedback section has this odd distanced 3rd person tone and includes unnecessary details for the context the essay is written in "pioneers of new technology must accept its imperfections as part of a learning process, rather than expecting flawless functionality from the outset."
That link isn't very accurate. For one thing, Navajo are athabascans, as in they speak an Athabascan language. The tribe the language family is named after is in Alaska/Canada though, not Texas.

The massive herds of Bison you're thinking of were primarily a feature of the great plains. Bison existed across much of the rest of the continent, but in much less overwhelming numbers towards the periphery outside the plains. The modern Navajo nation is right on the edge of that historical range. The Sioux (the Lakota among them) are one of the larger ethnolinguistic groups on the plains, along with others like the Blackfoot I mentioned. Here's a rough and highly imperfect map of the "territories":

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/aa/Early_Lo...

Also, this is a matter of some disagreement between the ivory tower and many of the Diné themselves, but it's a bit ambiguous to use the term Navajo prior to the Long Walk in the 1870s, when the Bison range had already retreated onto the plains. Navajo prior to that are usually identified much more closely with other Apachean groups. The technical term here is "ethnogenesis".

No, they don't. Car companies (in the US) must send cars to NHTSA for crash testing.

> But maybe the catch is that it doesn't matter how slowly he moves the clocks into position, they'll always be skewed by time dilation.

I dealt with that by moving the clocks with identical velocity profiles, so time dilation should be the same...

Unless time dilation is anisotropic. I dealt with that by sending multiple clocks, with some sent on triangular routes and some direct. In more detail:

C
A B
D

If I send a clock from A to C to B, and a clock from A to D to B, and the two clocks arrive with the same time, then I have evidence that time dilation is anisotropic (for at least those two routes). I don't necessarily expect that they have the same time as a clock sent direct from A to B - they have an additional acceleration, from the change of direction at C or D, and they have more time at velocity, because of traveling the longer distance. I think I said that very badly in my first post.

But the point is, if I can show that time dilation is anisotropic, then the clocks that went direct from A to B, and the clocks that went the same distance in exactly the opposite direction, should have the same time on them.
This thread has degenerated at warp speed into the kind of generics that dang steered against in the first post. Not surprised, but that was fast.
When it comes to economics it never ceases to amaze me that we build an entire system on the basic assumption that everyone acts primarily in their own self-interest, and that that system somewhat manages to function.

I think it's more readable. It matches with the type name, it is consistent when you define different structures (list, set, dict vs [], set, {}), you can pass it as a function, etc. [] and {} is unnecessary syntax sugar, not to mention how the same parentheses are overloaded when sets are defined.

Fine-tuning is not a good approach to integrating new knowledge into an LLM. It's a good way to drive the direction of the LLM's style, structure of responses (e.g., length, format).

I'd say RAG is still very much the way to go. What you need to then do is optimize how you chunk and embed data into the RAG database. Pinecone has a good post on this[1] and I believe others[2] are working on more automated solutions.

If you want a more generalized idea here, what state of the art (SOTA) models seems to be doing is using a more general "second brain" for LLMs to obtain information. This can be in the form of RAG, as per above, or in the form of more complex and rigorous models. For example, AlphaGeometry[3] uses an LLM combined with a geometry theorem prover to find solutions to problems.

Well now I know! However I still think the shared usage of curly braces for dicts and sets could be somewhat confusing.

I know what you mean, but at some point when I played with it it could reasonably modify an image based on queries. Like, if I asked it to add smoke to the house's chimney, it would put grey blobs above the house, or if I asked it to give the cat a tail, it would put it roughly at the end. For me that's kind of a very rudimentary picture understanding, although I know it's a stretch.
From Alex Martelli , a prominent Python expert [1]:

> I'm one of those who prefers words to punctuation -- it's one of the reasons I've picked Python over Perl, for example. "Life is better without braces" (an old Python motto which went on a T-shirt with a cartoon of a smiling teenager;-), after all (originally intended to refer to braces vs indentation for grouping, of course, but, hey, braces are braces!-).

> "Paying" some nanoseconds (for the purpose of using a clear, readable short word instead of braces, brackets and whatnots) is generally affordable (it's mostly the cost of lookups into the built-ins' namespace, a price you pay every time you use a built-in type or function, and you can mildly optimize it back by hoisting some lookups out of loops).

> So, I'm generally the one who likes to write dict() for {}, list(L) in lieu of L[:] as well as list() for [], tuple() for (), and so on -- just a general style preference for pronounceable code. When I work on an existing codebase that uses a different style, or when my teammates in a new project have strong preferences the other way, I can accept that, of course (not without attempting a little evangelizing in the case of the teammates, though;-).

Commercial realestate is ridiculous right now.

I have no idea how most shops are profitable when they are paying $3k+ per month, either for a run down shopfront in a non-prime location, or for a 100m2 office.

I’m going to also blame VC money on inflating the price of everything and making it difficult to afford to do profitable tech business at local scale. That’s my theory anyway.
No, totally, I'm with you. Better safe than sorry. I just thought it was funny.
Yeah they did do a great job of taking headphones/earbuds from throwaway freebies to $100-$200 must-haves and then pushing that to $500 with the Max. Although the Max certainly isn't a must have for most people.

I just a hard time believing that $3,500 is the price point they have in mind for VR stuff. In my own head, I had decided to insta-buy if it was $2,000 at launch and I wasn't even close.
`-s` stands for "setup", the building of the tuple is only done once, and it is not part of the benchmark.

All three versions only bench the construction of the list, two of them from a tuple, while the third is a list literal. However if you plug it into `dis` you'll see that it compiles to loading a const tuple and creating a list from that

>>> dis.dis("[1, 2, 'a']")
0 0 RESUME 0
1 2 BUILD_LIST 0
4 LOAD_CONST 0 ((1, 2, 'a'))
6 LIST_EXTEND 1
8 RETURN_VALUE
>>> dis.dis("[*t]")
0 0 RESUME 0
1 2 BUILD_LIST 0
4 LOAD_NAME 0 (t)
6 LIST_EXTEND 1
8 RETURN_VALUE

My very first full-time (non-internship) professional job in the late 90's was to adapt a COTS ATM protocol stack to run on VxWorks as part of a military project featuring a satellite equipped HMMWV to provide connectivity. Part of that job was a three week trip to Alameda, CA for training and certification on VxWorks.

In general, the software worked as expected, and did what a RTOS is supposed to do in terms of being predictable and deterministic.

I love how we used to use a bunch of very clever "code book" systems like 8b/10b which did a lot of careful work with small runs of bits to ensure the clock was recoverable and to avoid line capacitance issues.

Then we just moved to things like 64/66b which takes a giant chunk of bits, adds a short header to guarantee a clock transition, then runs everything through a pseudorandom scrambler.

Snapchat texts aren’t encrypted, you had a text about a bomb sent from an airport.

So you have the threatening content, sensitive location, and likely sufficient account information which can be matched to a traveler list.

How many messages a day do you think fit that criteria?
Uh, truncation is a huge no-no for security. But, that isn't what I was talking about. For deduplication/hash key/etc kinds of functions where a checksum works (or some other algorithm with a high chance of collisions is implemented for unit testing to assure collision paths are handled correctly).

This is part of the entire discussion, it's possible to use algorithms originally intended for cryptographically secure purposes in places where the reversibility/collision properties aren't considered problems. And likely this will only happen more frequently as algorithms are picked because they have hardware acceleration and are fast rather for the underlying security properties.

BTW: There is a fun game that I've played; see how much you can truncate a modern cryptographic hash before it becomes trivial to find collisions.
Seems to me a solution is to have a "generic" queue handler that will take any message, and then have tenant specific queue handlers.

Now, mind, I'm not thinking of a dedicated handler for each tenant, rather one that can round robin, or rotate through the tenants to pull items specific to that tenant off the queue. This can be the "fairness" arbiter.

With the Postgres SKIP LOCKED technique, you can be selective as to which messages you pull (you're not limited to the head of the queue, but can dig deep if you want).

So, you have one general purpose "head of the line" handler, and then one (or several) that acts like the fellow at the Post Office "Anyone here just picking up mail?", and pull them out of the queue.

Of course the generic version can just switch modes (every 1m, or 100 messages, go into "fair mode" for a short time), vs having different handlers.
Impressive demo.

Any FSD startup that put their money on LiDAR is even more screwed now.
I have a new Fridgedair Fridge and new (4 yo) Maytag "Commercial Quality" washer and dryer. I have a warranty on the fridge and have spent almost 1000 dollars on repairs already. The repair guy told me never to buy a fridge without it. The door stopped working! I didn't get the warranty on the washer and dryer but I should have. In the 4 years of owning them I have DIY replaced the gearbox on the washer, 2 heating units, a tensioner pully, and all rollers in the dryer. One of them is starting to squeak again and the belt needs replaced. It's really been nonstop and the gearbox fix, if done by a professional, was more than the thing was worth.
Thanks for putting these words together - I can relate to it!

I feel this article lacks a bit of the purpose behind "being different". I agree that doing what you described is not easy and will make you socialise less than before. However, isn't the point of all these changes to make you feel good?

If you are feeling depressed or have a feeling that everything is "work" - I would question, "What 'being different' will do for you?". If you are 'living for the future', what is your deadline to live this way before you start enjoying life?

One extra tool that has been super helpful for me (although a bit hard to start) is self-compassion. It helped me be more aligned with what I want. Sometimes, I want to brainlessly rest by watching Netflix, which is fine as long as I'm not lying to myself.

> one is "put item in oven before leaving, remotely turn on at X time, done when home" which is pretty clearly what the JennAir is aiming towards.

Almost all ovens have been able to do that since at least the '60s. You don't turn on the oven remotely, you set a clock that tells the oven when to turn on.
> This shifts the blame away from where it ultimately lies.

Do you state this as an objective fact regarding causality, or are you more so describing the norms of the (sub-)culture you were raised in, perhaps without serious scrutiny?

If the former, then I would expect there to be some sort of a widely agreed upon proof you could link to.

Does it blip planes when the radar scan rolls over them and they stay in a static position but fade until the next sweep? That would be so cool.

Would also be amazing to look at device current gps altitude and location to determine the visible skyline per azimuth based on openstreetmap buildings and hills/elevation around your current position and altitude... then you can show it on the map as a radar occlusion [1] - like a fish finder when you go over a log, or ship radar occluded by another vessel.

The problem is that this verification/fact checking is often flimsy or nonexistent, even in places where it exists. You don't need a deepfake or AI or whatever to get a story about the US president into the media, you could basically send a random tip off on social media or a few blurry photos of a piece of paper and have a bunch of sites immediately rush out and post articles about it.

It's definitely better for respectable publications than tabloids or random blogs, but still, getting a story covered doesn't take much in the way of convincing evidence in this day and age.

I had a tough time traveling with normal people. They needed to visit only popular cafes and restaurants, stay in long queues to get to overcrowded places. They don't care the history of the city, they have only places to check-in.

I had a conversation with my colleague and he said he wanted to visit India so badly. But he had some restrictions for the trip: the hotel territory should be with own beach with no access for locals, and the personal should be all non-Indians. That's difficult for me to understand what kind of India experience you could get with this approach.
