Ask HN: Will the energy of the 80s ever come back to the West?
I was alive then, and it was wild. Say what you want but it was a good time to be alive. Snapshotted in the films of that era: a mix of possibility and optimism, expansion and vibrancy - that started to decay in the 90s (grunge et al was a symptom of the 90s zeitgeist) and was completely demolished by the noughties.

Stranger Things is one of a few recent 'era remake' period pieces that capitalizes on demand for this kind of nostalgia.

In a strange way, I think hacker culture of the 90s continued the excitement of the 80s, but underground, when it had already begun to die in the mainstream. Who's with me on this? Or knows what I'm talking about?

In the 2000s I traveled to Asia and found the same sense of aliveness in the Sinosphere, unsurprisingly. That's gone from there now, too, replaced with something else in capitalisms' rapide marche. But I really want to know -- will this vibe ever return to the West?

Or, put it differently, where in the world can you now find that mix of fun, openness, positivity and possibility that was once alive in the 1980s? :)
Billionaires Wanted to Save the News Industry. They're Losing a Fortune
Thing is there are way more good books written, than any single person can consume in their lifetimes. An average person like me, reading a mixed diet of classics, obscure recommendations and what's popular right now, I still don't feel like I'm making a dent in the pile of high quality written content.

Given all that, the purpose of LLMs should be to create tailor made content to everyone's tastes. However, it seems the hardcore guardrails put into GPT4 and Claude prevent it from generating anything enjoyable. It seems, even the plot of the average Star Wars movie is too spicy for modern LLM sensibilities, never mind something like Stephen King.

Yes and no. The basic flight path would not change, but it does get affected by weather conditions and such. So the drill would be that they get the weather data and other inputs, and would need to provide the guidance set up parameters.

He also told that they’d also do drills where they need to hit an actual target on the other side of the Soviet Union with an actual ICBM. Some kind of a polygon made for such drills. If I recall correctly, getting it within a kilometer was considered acing it.

Doesn't work for bash
Are you suggesting safety standards are higher in the UK than in Germany? Where do you see the differences? From what I read, safety standards in the UK seem to be lower than in Germany but what do I know.
Yes, easily in every case. The information asymmetry between the present and the past is insurmountable. Any lost knowledge on our side is utterly dwarfed by never-gained knowledge on their side.

In addition to this, hardware advances mean that some theoretical attacks (brute force cracks etc) known to both sides are only practically available to Team Present.
I've been doing something similar for years. Originally I tried to keep everything in .bash_history, but over the years and different machines it inevitably gets wiped sooner or later.

This helps (I use bash rather than zsh):

# Sort out history$
export HISTIGNORE="&:ls:vi:bg:fg:history"
export HISTCONTROL=ignoredups:ignorespace
export HISTSIZE=100000
export HISTFILESIZE=100000
shopt -s histappend
shopt -s checkwinsize

But the long-term (multi-machine) solution is to keep another append-only copy, one per machine:

function storehist() {
# Bug in mac version of bash stops HISTCMD getting set in function called from PROMPT_COMMAND...
CMDCNT=`history 1 | sed -e 's/\w* *\(.*\)/\1/'`;
if [ "$CMDCNT" != "$LASTCMDIND" ] && [ -n "$LASTCMDIND" ] # First time, no prev, do not log random
then
DATE=`date '+%Y%b%d %H%M'`;
if [ "$LASTCMDIND" != "$CMDCNT" ]
then
echo "$DATE $HOSTNAME:$BASHTTY $CMDCNT" >>~/.custom_history;
fi
LASTCMDIND="$CMDCNT";
fi
LASTCMDIND="$CMDCNT";
}
export PROMPT_COMMAND='storehist; ....

A little bit over the top and crusty but it has worked like that for years so I've not updated it in a while. There is a separate sync script that puts the .custom_history from each machine / container into a folder on each machine with the orginating machine name in the file-name.

This keeps ^-R working over a long period of time, but eventually that stops being a good way of find obscure commands from long ago and then something like this works:

cat .histories/* | grep CMD | grep WERID_ARG | grep RANDOM_RELEVANT_STR | sort -u | less

The overall cost of running some script on each prompt is negliable on a modern machine and as the OP notes the disk space does not amount to much. It becomes very useful over time. I have about 20MB of shell history that stretches back to '06. It is one of things that is easy to setup, and yet the value accrues steadily over time. Across the dozen or so machines involved I doubt that the archive would have survived long-term without the step to export it outside of the shell's real history file.

I think a good compromise is just partially remote. I 100% see the benefit of not being in the office every day. I like going in 3 times a week. My company has a policy that every person must come into the office 3 days on mode (so like, if some weeks you don't reach 3 it's okay as long as most weeks you do), and allows 2 days for people who live far away. It works really well and satisfies my desire to be in the office and see other people there. Most people seem to enjoy it.

longjmp simply restores the machine registers (including PC and SP) and thus doesn’t respect any sort of unwind-protect, a concept unknown in C.

unwind-protect is a more general form of the c++ raii (in fact c++ got raii from Common Lisp).
I find it peculiar to ask this question but then also deduplicate your history file because then you lose complete history and context. Sometimes I've had to issue series of commands to fix a particular problem (changing a kerberos password, fixing the expiry date of a gpg key, etc.) that I can backtrack through the history file to find what I did and how I resolved it, later having to do the same, and according to their settings the first instance would be removed.

Personally, I can't remember the solution to everything I do so having that deduplicated log gives me the full history of what I did and how I resolved it, amongst other uses. Sure, removing duplicate 'ls' entries is fine for example, but for every command? Not so sure.
Not really for more complicated meshes however, which compose planar geometries to form a solid. For 2 objects A and B you could iterate all pairs of planes that they have to see if there's any overlap, and although that works out as "elegant" math, not so elegant performance. Also, it won't yield a manifold.
How are you supposed to know that they're unjustified when the (at that time) top comment is just "no"? Are you supposed to accept the superiority of some anonymous commenter, or is the fact that they just "need to" post "no" and therefore show that their opinion must be superior?

I have no idea about publishing or book writing or anything, so please enlighten me, but how much of that is plagiarism and how much of that is what would be called "fair use" in other domains?

The post only refers to excerpts of long-winded descriptions of stuff, not to large plots or entire paragraphs plagiarized.

Is that very different from asking ChatGPT to generate a thorough description of a situation and using this? Would that be plagiarism too?
Korean here. Apple has been really sluggish on opening up branches in Korea until around 2020, but then in the last few years, they're expanding their chains quite fast, which is good to hear for me.

But one thing that I find it little disappointing is that all of the Korean Apple stores are solely in Seoul, with zero branches in other provinces.

What strikes me from the examples in the OP is that this method of plagiarism doesn’t seem very easy. How would you produce this kind of thing? Eg maybe you read a lot and collect a large number of flowery phrases to use over time or maybe you just pinch phrases you like from whatever you read today. I guess I usually associate plagiarism with less effort than seems to have been required here.

>Its not a joke, just to clarify this isnt my belief. I am telling you why Zion is worth so much to some people. In Judaism there will never be an end of days unless the final temple is built on Mount Temple, even for millions of years. But the issue is that if we try and speak logically to both this nation and its backers we will never win.

Thanks for clarifying. Most European Zionists, including Theodor Herzl, were and still are secular. These false post hoc narratives about religious motivations are a deflection from the real reason why Zionists wanted to colonize Palestine and it had nothing to do with religious folklore. It only became a talking point later when colonialism became a "bad word" and they were trying to legitimize their colonial project via other means.

>Noticed how little sympathy the people in Palestine get compared to people in Ukraine? Why do you think that is? If I was to say the Palestinians are Arab savages I would be reprimanded for being prejudice but making excuses for their continuing genocide isnt prejudice?

You could say that arabs or muslims are savages without facing any serious repercussions in most cases assuming that you live in Europe or America. In theory Islamophobia, like any other form of bigotry like antisemitism or homophobia, is supposedly not acceptable but in reality it is and there is an overwhelming amount of evidence for it one of which you already stated.

In reality there is an hierarchy of victimhood, where the validity and impact of different groups' experiences are often weighed and measured differently by those in positions of power or with societal influence.

The biggest irony is that the same people who are quick to shut down any form of criticism of israel, by intentionally conflating a political entity with jewish people itself, by screaming antisemitism, also engage in the most viscous Islamophobic tropes to defend their apartheid ethno-state while seeing absolutely no irony in their own bigotry. So it's obvious that it's not really about being tolerant or civilized, but rather about cleverly weaponizing narratives to reshape politics in one's own best interest.

>These commenters are just articulating the same venom that their parents and grandparents did, in a different way but its the same bile fundamentally.

You're correct, but they are also assisted by the fact that geopolitical dynamics provide them with impunity such that their psychotic behavior compounds over time because it never gets checked and thus mutates into worse behavior over time.

I’ve never understood why people on Hacker News feel the need to make these year comments? Particularly in cases like this where it adds nothing at all to the conversation.

It has the air of indicating that the content is potentially outdated, but the post is quite little less than a month old. If the content was a couple days newer would there be value in commenting “(2024)”?

Beyond that, everything on that page has explicit exact dates. It’s Reddit. We can read the actual date and not just the year ourselves.

> only clear instance of genocide in this war is the October 7 attacks.

That's clearly a military operation with some war crimes thrown in, which is about expected. Then went in and out, there's no systematic intent in the mission to destroy israel for the simple reason that Hamas can't. Hamas is physically incapable of committing genocide despite what the preach.

VS Israel's systematic destruction of Gaza with enough dogwhistles from senior leadership that can credibly push Israeli campaign into genocide territory. Whether that matters under international law is another Q, but the difference when it comes to international opinion (well, global south), is Hamas can't genocide Israel because they don't have the capabilities vs IDF can actually genocide Palestine/Gaza and optic wise, is looking well on their way as mass starvation as systemic blockade settles in. Like if west can delude themselves into thinking Uyghurs are being genocided despite very few systemic killings and leaks from leadership that intent is counterterrorism/deradicalization, then case for Israel doing a genocide is much stronger considering the actual destruction, body count and mask off rhetoric from Israeli politicians.

>They're not much worse than in what goes on in England[1], it would appear.

I've never heard of anybody ever having their life ruined because they wrote something in a blog about the UK prime minister. People write a lot of band things about him, some of it lies even. The UK's libel laws are definitely broken but Singapore's libel laws are just a weapon of the autocracy to crush dissent.

>This is all the more confusing, since Singapore actually has the capital penalty for certain crimes.

Yes, that's why it's called Disneyland with the Death Penalty. An article so accurate that the prime minister decided to ban Wired magazine in a fit of pique.

>There is so much wrong with this statement I don't even know where to start. Firstly, I'm guessing you did not 'live there': you lived in an expat bubble taking home six-plus digits with your family taken care of, chauffeured between work and your Holland Village/Bukit Timah

False. I shared a room in an HDB. I took the bus to work. I ate at food courts.

>Next, the bus riots started because of drunk and disorderly behaviour.

The riots in little india started because it took an ambulance an hour to arrive when somebody low on the racial totem pole got hit by a vehicle. I think they might have died.

>The police never brutalised anyone

There was an excellent article written in the WSJ that detailed exactly what happened to the imprisoned bus drivers during the bus strike. Yes, they were beaten in jail. Singapore does not tolerate labour power. Capital rules supreme. NTUC is an arm of the government.

>It exasperates me to no end when foreigners nitpick on some so-called affront to freedom in Singapore (that doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things), when there are more serious and insidious issues that deeply affect the local (and even migrant populace) like male-only conscription, the skyrocketing cost of living, the car-first urban planning despite Singapore's government supposedly despising cars, and the classism and racism going on.

Freedom of speech and labour power is necessary in order to fix these things.

>I am inclined to take anyone less seriously if they complain about 'police brutality' in Singapore. The Singapore police are amongst the meekest and friendliest

Oh they're fine provided you're not a migrant worker, which you clearly aren't. I'm guessing you're probably local Chinese.
I like how it looks. The only thing I would improve is create a table for the data, with alternating colors per row.
And for users of GUIs who are (understandably) fed up with GNOME and all the GTK Stuff, I can wholeheartedly recommend Dolphin, KDEs standard filebrowser.

Which isn't on Hiatus, doesn't require GTK, and has switchable Split views (aka. dual-pane), and tabs (where each tab may have its own split view).
It's just frustrating to use autocomplete on the $ shell, it's so ubiquitous to to use Tab to autocomplete that within mc it switches panes. I cannot discover how to "Esc Tab", because pressing Esc then Tab does not autocomplete, pressing and holding Esc then Tab, also doesn't autocomplete, other than that it's the good'ol souped up norton commander.

Good. While this presenteistic witch hunt looks like a bit much, I feel finding and shaming plagiarists is a great idea.

Any public figure is totally justified to be shamed for plagiarism IMO.

The reason they're not accusing them of copyright infringement is presumably that a few sentences allegedly lifted with modifications from other books won't rise to that level.

Perhaps UK law is different, but presumably this is just something that might make you unpopular among other authors and literary critics, not a civil or criminal matter.
Did they find real plagiarism that was obviously fraudulent or did someone cite an author improperly. I know in academic circles it's basically the same, but some things I've seen recently accusing people of plagiarism are just draconian IMO like they cited the person, but screwed up the quotes somehow.
