They can manage Gaza like Westbank, but that's settling for two powderkegs. Same with comparison to US post 911 actions. It's buying time, which currently is best of bad options, but IMO blowback will come. Pessimism personally warranted in medium/long term time frames. US been trying to draw down from CENTOM for years, and newer gen who will take over politics are expessing less alignment with Israel. I don't think it's self-inflicted restraints as much as geopolitically inflicted - there's upper limit to what Israel can do before it fucks up things irrevocably for US geopolitical interests with others in the region. Long term, Israel is still a small country without sufficient human capita to maintain high end asymmetric war fighting across domains alone (i.e. aviation). Long term I think US constitutents and politicians will attach more and more strings to Israeli behaviour.
> If people in the states think that charging a Model 3 or Model Y is too time consuming

A lot of them are being told this, and they just believe it without running the numbers for their use case. For some it would be longer until infrastructure improves, but for others it would actually be less time “waiting” on their EV than their ICE car. I’m in the UK and I’ve spent 0 mins waiting on my EV charging in the last 4 months. Plug in at night and unplug in the morning. I’ve also spent 0 minutes visiting gas stations.

America has bigger distances and there are other factors of course.
Sure, but avoiding that risk is inconvenient, whereas going for a 737-800 or A320 over a 737 Max may be no effort at all depending on the flight (this sort of thing is really bad news for Ryanair if it catches on, say; Ryanair's most important routes are typically of the 20-flight-a-day variety and there's lots of competition who don't have Maxes).
Home ownership rates blipped down after 2008 and recently during COVID, but are still higher now than they were in the 1990s, which is higher than they were in the 1960s. Rents have gone up, but I think you’re overlooking what share of low end workers used to rent rooms or board with other workers. Lots of temporary housing situations that were common then aren’t even legal now.

I think the difference is that education levels grew much faster than the real economy. A lot of college graduates don’t realize that 50 years ago they would’ve been renting a bedroom from some middle class person instead of having their own crappy and too-expensive place.
In the 90's at a party I heard the story of the scientist who cried because their experiment didn't work while in space. It was told around the idea civilians shouldn't go to space, only trained professionals.

The story never quite added up just because of crying. This I assume was the incident.

Good to finally get it 30 years later.

The story I thought was related to Richard P. Feynman and maybe his Challenger report. I just had a quick look and it doesn't seem to be in there. Memory fail I guess.

I respect Taylor Wang's honesty in this interview -

"So finally, in desperation. I said. "Hey, if you guys don't give me a chance to repair my instrument, I'm not going back."
Well. NASA got nervous at that point. They actually got a psychologist to talk to the other crew members and ask. "Is Taylor going nuts? Fortunately my commander. Bob Overmyer, said, "No. he's okay He's just depressed, and he really wants to repair the experiment. We'Il help out. They were on my side. Finally NASA said okay, on a couple of conditions. First, that I wouldn't neglect my other responsibilities, and second, that I would quit after a reasonable effort

I was relieved, because I hadn't really figured out how not to come back if they'd called my bluff. The Asian tradition of honorable suicide, seppuku, would have failed, since everything on the shuttle is designed for safety. The knife onboard can't even cut the bread. You could put your head in the oven, but it's really just a food warmer. You wouldn't even bum yourself. And if you tried to hang yourself with no gravity, you'd just dangle there and look like an idiot." - https://archive.org/details/spaceshuttle00dkpu/page/232/mode... p232
>and indeed if every single connection is asserted, i.e. "everything means something", then there is no value in any connection.

I think "every single connection is asserted" would equate to "everything means everything". "Everything means something" would be rather: "for every thing, a connection from that thing to another thing (but not every other thing) is asserted". And in that case, there is no loss of value in the connections that are there.

Similarly I would say that "some propositions are not true" is also a statement about the meaning of propositions. A relation of negation is also a relation.

That said I do agree that e.g. when we have a relation from A to B, adding a relation from B to C also can be said to change the meaning of A/the connection from A to B. I was perhaps over-simplifying.

>I'm a little perturbed by this [...]

"Illusion" does not have to mean "completely worthless and fake", it can also mean simply "different than initially thought". I'm certainly not as nihilistic as you may fear, if only because I also still like to read texts, and apparently derive value from it :)

> analytical vs. continental

I'm aware, I'm not against the continental style when done well, but that doesn't mean an analytical-style reaction to a continental-style argument can't be productive. In this case I had the feeling that two separate uses of the word "meaning" were being conflated without justification, and shining some light on that would show where the argument went wrong. Or: I had the feeling that the author was unaware of the conflation of two separate uses of the word "meaning" in the general culture he is critiquing, and might find some answers to his questions by being more aware of these distinctive uses. Or: the general culture itself is not aware of conflating these two uses and this is the phenomenon that might be analyzed in response to the worries raised in TFA.

I'd guess the helium comes out mixed with the liquid, and just vents out faster at the beginning of the storage time.
If you hate the format of these kinds of article let me summarize:

Guy builds an experiment, flies it, it doesn't work, requests more time to get it working, is denied, threatens 'not to come back', goes into a depression, worries crew that he'll open the door to space, eventually granted more time to work on the experiment, gets it working.

There are consequences for letting this kind of person fly and dealing with mental health while on a mission, but that's the basic plot.
Everyone responding saying it doesn’t happen is wrong. It may not happen often to them. I have flown 500,000 miles.

I have family and friends in the industry who pilot, work ground ops, maintenance, and are flight attendants. At an airline with over 300 departures per day things go wrong, crews time out, aircraft have issues on landing that somehow get ignored until morning, and many more examples then planes get swapped.

They generally have very few planes on standby because it’s like flying them empty, it’s an inefficient use of money. It turns into wack a mole quickly and one flight steals a plane, gate, or crew from another until none are left.
It would be cool to just have one off LEDs like this to stick around. If they ever light up, get scared!

Yes, 1Password etc can scan the QR code and generate OTP codes.

For shared accounts this is often critical, where say, IT staff need to have 2FA access to manage some line of business cloud app, but you don’t want to setup 20 named users in your IT department in 30 different apps (Adobe, CRM, etc).

Password managers geared toward IT will have good audit trail, so each employee still 2FA’s into the password manager, and it’s logged who viewed passwords/codes when, so you still have named visibility into which IT staff are making which changes.

PassPortal (by N-able) is one I’ve used that did this for IT teams.

I think this should be your elevator pitch. Don't focus too much on "git complexity" as most people already know git so it just creates an argument. Scalability, in terms of numbers of users is somewhat hard to argue as well (Linux kernel has 1000s of contributors). However, it is completely true that git does not natively handle large binary assets well. You can even quote Linus:

The gains seem to not have been high enough to sustain that project. Nowadays CPUs plan, fuse and reorder so much of micro-code that lower-level languages can sort of be considered virtual as well.

But Java and similar languages extract more freedom-of-operation from the programmer to the runtime: no memory address shenanigans, richer types, and to some extent immutability and sealed chunks of code. All these could be picked up and turned into more performance by the hardware; with some help from the compiler. Sort of like SQL being a 4th-gen language, letting the runtime collect statistics and chose the best course of execution (if you squint at it in the dark with colored glasses)

More recent work about this is to be found on the RISC-V J extension [1], still to be formalized and picked up by the industry. Three features could help dynamic languages:

* Pointer masking: you can fit a lot in the unused higher bits of an address. Some GCs use them to annotate memory (refered-to/visited/unvisited/etc.), but you have to mask them. A hardware assisted mask could help a lot.

* Memory tagging: Helps with security, helps with bounds-checking

* More control over instruction caches

It is sort of stale at the moment, and if you track down the people working on it they've been reassigned to the AI-accelerator craze. But it's going to come back, as Moore's law continues to end and Java's TCO will again be at the top of the bean-counter's stack.

The humans have probably been learning how to negotiate the physical world for a decade or more. Also humans have evolved to be good at that stuff. That self driving tech also has to be designed and trained is sort of a similar deal.

An airliner's external doors are designed such that they're held closed by internal pressure. Thus opening a door on the ground is pretty easy, which is convenient because that's the only place you should open them. But opening at cruise is extremely difficult.

Now - a strong person can do it when the plane is far enough up that it's very scary, after all some normal passenger airports are a few thousand feet above sea level and we want the doors to work there. But you won't open them at cruise.

All the normal doors on an aeroplane are fire doors so they can't be locked from the inside.

> Someone outside the project maintainers will always have a smaller cost basis for the tradeoff of not controlling what goes into the code

How do you figure this? Nobody will know the product, its users and their needs better than the original authors. They have a distinct advantage over any competitor who only offers a commercial wrapper around it. Not to mention that they have full control over the direction of the product, and can at anytime introduce a new feature their commercial service takes advantage of from day one. Their competitors could also fork the OSS product, but it's very likely that the OSS userbase stays with the original authors.

Again, for this to work the authors need to be both great OSS stewards, and great business leaders. Not many companies do this correctly.

> I don't think that's enough, especially if the other company is AWS.

By the time AWS takes notice of your product, you should already be quite successful at your own business, in a way that they can't compete. The companies AWS stole lunch from didn't do this properly, and their only recourse was a license change.

> a power you say they shoudn't abuse - and most of the examples I named did

Yes, I'm not arguing those companies don't exist. I'm saying that it's not in their best interest to do so, considering how much community backlash can hurt them. You also ignored my two examples of companies which I think do this right, and have successful businesses.

> Also, Wordpress has a lot of competitors.

Sure it does. Hooray for open source. https://wordpress.com/hosting/ lists some of them. The goal for the original authors is to offer the _best_ service so that customers will want to choose them over the competition. Or maybe they can focus on a certain slice of the market, and leave others to cover the rest. The pie can be big enough for everyone. This is not unlike any other company. Competition will always exist. But again, the original authors will always have an advantage. Not knowing how to do this properly speaks more about the company than about open source. This isn't impossible, just very difficult.

Software developers on HN are saying the same thing. I don't see much evidence that AI has changed the game such that it would cause the work to dry up, though. In fact, I am surprised it hasn't created more work exploring the possibilities of new AI APIs.

But when you can get 5% returns just by sticking your money in the bank, why would you bother investing in software, where 99¢ is considered an exorbitant cost by its customers? That is no doubt why all of these creative industries are on the decline. There is, generally speaking, no money to be made.
Didn't that happen in a plane recently? There have been so many random issues in the air lately, especially with the Boeing planes... so I may be misremembering, but I thought some guy opened the emergency hatch and the plane was up there pretty high at the time.

Paused my reply and took a moment to search. Looks like I was right and wrong. The plane wasn't very high in the air, only about 700 feet. A man did open the emergency hatch, though. [1]

Cynically most people will probably assume (with zero evidence, just hearsay) their data is mirrored outside of the EU/US as companies bow to pressure from CCP.

Something along the lines of “We will grant you a license to operate in EU/US on the grounds we have full authority to inspect all customer data to ensure you are complying with CCP regulations”

It isn't "Actual Intelligence" it is Artificial Intelligence. The whole point of this article is that we should separate the philosophical argument about "What is intelligence" from the work of automation with Neural Networks.

My preference is that we declare AGI to have been completed at AlphaZero. And now the people who want to work on replicating human intelligence can specifically say that is what they are working on, "Human Intelligence Replication" And people who want to use Neural Networks to automate parts of the economy and increase productivity can work on "Neural Network Functionality and Automation"
Ok, then what you do with the other 99.999% of it?
I couldn't possibly disagree more.

You are legally liable for the messages you send; the access rights you have etc;

This is why shared accounts are one of the first thing a CISO/CIO will try to kill. It makes liability lie with the company and not the individual.

You will not be able to hide behind the fact you refuse or fail to secure your devices if someone sends a threatening message from your email account or if someone deletes the prod database.

Where shared credentials are required there is usually an access log associated: which ties individual named accounts to shared access rights in the event of eDiscovery or forensics.

Some trust is good, but if we really believed in trust then we wouldn't even both having access accounts with our names on them.
I have zero faith that it is going to pick up again. There is no evidence this is going to be the case. Your time would be better spent retraining for another industry, if that is practical for you.
And then you lose functionality, for example `git blame` depends on the history being available locally. If you want a working repository with all the source control features you need a regular clone. That's where "being able to get the rest via API calls..." kicks in :)
That's the thing. You can dual license however you want. But if no one from the outside actually contributes what have you accomplished really? (Other than being able to say you're open source.) Of course, a great many open source projects in general are one person or one organization.
