Your comment reminds me of a Bill Murray quote:

> I always want to say to people who want to be rich and famous: 'try being rich first'. See if that doesn't cover most of it. There's not much downside to being rich, other than paying taxes and having your relatives ask you for money. But when you become famous, you end up with a 24-hour job.

In Pelosi’s case, that job includes the possibility of a lunatic attacking your husband with a hammer. You would have to pay me very well indeed to put up with that kind of risk, esp. if you need to hire private security…

If they cared about the hostages, they wouldn't be bombing them to death on a daily basis, shooting those that escape, or gassing them in tunnels. The hostages are nothing more than political pawns to Netanyahu.

Keep in mind that Hamas reiterated their ceasefire deal recently, which includes the release of all hostages, and Israel rejected it.

So glad the AK account exists. As a researcher, I've always wanted some guy with an econ degree and a year of ML eng to recommend me papers after glancing at them for maybe 30 seconds.

I am genuinely baffled that researchers in the field think there is any value in the service AK provides. I'd wager I could create an equally effective bot with the following process:

1) Create a historical dataset of publications and their citation counts

2) For each publication extract the following features:

- H-index of first author

- Maximum H-index of all authors

- Number of author affiliations in {top-10 school, deepmind, meta, openai, nvidia}

- Number of times the phrase "state-of-the-art" appears

- Which latex template is used (NeurIPS, ICML, etc.)

- Number of images in the paper

- Whether there is an image on the first page

- Whether "all you need" appears in the title

- Whether the publication has a linked project page

3) Train a shallow decision tree with citation counts as the regression target
I personally find Wtfhappenedin1971 to be super interesting, even if the conclusion about floating currencies could be wrong. The author here hand-picks like 4 things out of the 50 charts, and IMO the least interesting ones.

There’s some massive trends that started around 1971, where healthcare, national debt, education costs, housing, etc all just start to skyrocket, outside of just inflation.

I think the 1971 author is certainly motivated in his reasoning to explain what’s going on through his lens, but the OP here seems equally motivated to decide that actually nothing is going on.

Hopefully its not pedantic or unwelcome of me to make the distinction
between spread-spectrum and frequency hopping.

With frequency hopping only one frequency is used at once, and they're
selected according to a sequence that matches a shared PRNG. As I
understand it, that's what Bluetooth and some Wifi links do. They
switch between discrete bands very fast.

Spread spectrum is a little different. During modulation, as with FM a
series of side bands spread out. Normally we would limit these as
they're considered "interference". But with the right modulator you
can spread (and indeed encrypt at the RF link level) information into
some bands but not others. Although all sidebands are present, to an
observer who can't tell which ones carry the data at any moment, it
makes no sense to even try demodulating the signal.

Neither solutions are much use if you need to communicate back because
triangulation alone is enough to find you.

Curious if this tallys with your understanding, its over a decade
since I had anything to so with this sort of thing. The best summary I
recall was in Ross Anderson's "Security Engineering" book (first ed.)
Really? Democratically elected? Elections in Gaza, over a decade ago, are the bar for democracy now?

I think it's pretty clear cut that using your phone to do stuff is... using your phone.

> there is collateral damage because Hamas uses civilians as human shields

When you say things like this, I know that you are either spreading IDF propaganda or have been wired to believe IDF propaganda. Either way it is telling what soldiers are experiencing.

None of the things you stated are any different than what IDF associated press has stated. This makes your post incredibly suspect.

As this is HN, and we welcome on-the-ground views, we are not finding too much info about what is actually happening from the ground view in your post.

> If it's policy, it's legal.

I don't disagree that it's legal and mentioned that in my comment. What I'm claiming is that the way in which the legal system has evolved has incentivized problematic behaviors.

> there's going to be who-knows-how-much embarrassing personal gossip in there, too and that just makes folks look bad

That's what I was referring to by "making discovery more expensive during any hypothetical future lawsuit". Part of that cost is due to legal fees for discovery, but the other part is reputational harm:

The problem here again isn't courts and parties to the lawsuit having access to that data, but rather that it's being explicitly published for the entire world to see and share.

Personal gossip has absolutely no reason to be published as part of a lawsuit, in my view. If it's relevant to the case, make it available to its parties, read it out during the (usually public but non-broadcast) trial etc., but don't put it on an online case filing platform. Get rid of that, and the incentive to delete literally anything that's not legally required to be archived goes away too.

It'll probably be a while before you see them widely available, much less in small consumer devices. eVTOL and other battery aircraft can't really work without this level of density so I imagine they'll consume all available supply (at premium prices) for a while.
It's referring to Nixon taking us off the gold standard, which allows the central bank to essentially inflate our money supply like crazy. I don't necessarily agree with their argument, but there are grains of truth to it. Assuming a giant horde of Smaug level gold isn't found, it keeps things in check fairly well.

Appropriate for what? The podcast covers soooo much and attempts to catalog all influences from proto-indo-European onward, with a focus on shared word origins and phonetic changes over time. So some of the pronunciation is speculative reconstruction.
I would say "donc" is used where some might say "so" in English (aka shorter and less pompous "therefore").

I think the meaning of "Agreed" or "Right on" is rare and more implicit. Like saying "therefore" might mean "I accept the premise".

As a question, "donc?", like "so?", can mean "and then?", "then what?", "meaning what?", "what next?" or "so what?"

As an interjection or at the beginning of a sentence, "donc", like "so", can mean "now then", "that said", "moving on" or "without further ado".

A tip I picked up from Gruber is if you want your phone to stop incorrecting you on certain words, add them to your Text Replacement dictionary (including capitalization variants). This works for certain choice words in the English language iPhones like to duck out on, but I got annoyed enough about the Emacs to “EMacs” or “eMacs” thing that I did it for that as well.

I did like the eMac though, had them at a school I went to.
Hi there, I personally admire the work you do, I fully support Israel in it's war against evil, I hope you eradicate Hamas (ideally they would all surrender, but that's unlikely, so the other option is they get killed) as soon as you can. If you doubt any of these words, check out my tweets/likes (@tomprimozic)

However, there's 3 "contentious" points that I want to ask (my go-to Jewish (& very pro-Israel) close friend is currently very far away and has his own issues - not that you don't, but since you posted here...)

1. What's your comment on "Hamas headquarters below Al Shifa hospital"?

2. Why do IDF soldiers shoot (and post) videos of them "mocking"/"disrespecting" Palestinian homes/mosques/schools?

3. What's the steelman argument of why Israel is "occupying" the West Bank? The best I can come up with is "they didn't occupy Gaza and look what happened", but (a) that wasn't known before Oct7, and (b) they would have IMO gained a lot of goodwill abroad if they had given it more autonomy...
I feel Apple does this too. The main app I use is Music and it sure feels like the UI is worse and overly complicated these days. Not to mention uglier.
Except that QubesOS uses VMs for their security benefits, which are greater than those of containers.

Containers make a lot of sense to me on servers ("deploy a controlled environment"), but often on Desktop I feel like they are used as a solution to "I don't know how to handle dependencies" or "My dependencies are so unstable that it is impossible to install them system-wide", both of which should be solved by making slightly better software.

Totally agree, this headline is misleading and the article isn't useful. It's just blogspam for a reddit thread where some users report issues that coincide with receiving this update.

When you have an installed base as large as Google, some users are going to report problems after every update. These problems may not even have anything to do with the update contents, perhaps the update is what the user associates with the onset of their issues. It's entirely possible these "storage issues" are hardware and the i/o and reboot cycle of the update just caused it to manifest in a user visible way.

By all means I want users to hold Google accountable for mistakes but I feel like there's basically no information in this article beyond the speculation on reddit. The standard for HN should be higher than this IMO.
These are not informal conversations though. Maybe a small percentage is informal on slack, but even that is "SFW" communication that no would would care if it is logged.

It's script snippets, customer support information, links, design decisions etc.

Of course this stuff should be preserved in knowledgebases, tickets, commit messages etc, and it is, but sometimes people forget or something doesn't seem worth documenting. That's slacks main selling point for me, the ease of finding some technical conversation from 6 months ago.
If you look into what those metric changes are related to, you’ll find that it’s almost entirely uncorrelated with stiffer incarceration and zero tolerance policies, which was my point.

> Nonetheless, it is shown that conventional gasoline and diesel vehicles emit the highest amount of total life-cycle GHGs in comparison to vehicles powered by other available energy resources. When using green electricity, plug-in hybrid electric and fully electric vehicles can reduce the total life-cycle emission in comparison to combustion engine vehicles by 73 % and 89 %, respectively.

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S136403212...

Plenty of other papers with similar results. Current total lifecycle emissions are already net negative for EV vs ICE including production of the battery and vehicle, and production of the electricity using the current grid. That margin improves as the grid gets cleaner.

This is a very convenient interpretation. Lots of people acknowledge Israel as having that right without identifying as Zionists. Lots of anti-Zionists are just anti-colonialists.

This argument is used to shutdown legitimate criticism of a multi-generational occupation, land theft and discrimination. Those things are not inherent to being Jewish. So the distinction holds.
None, but what this does is create a rather significant pressure, one of many. If it didn't, you wouldn't see so much defense of Israeli state action.

This makes it seem as if the NSA would stop spying on Americans if the data wasn’t available on the open market. If we just change our data privacy laws! Historically, the NSA doesn’t care whether they get the info off the open market or from in-house infrastructure. They’re probably doing both now.

The problem isn’t this particular method they happen to be using today. The problem is that the NSA and the 4th Amendment are often in conflict, and the NSA wins because there’s no consequences for violating it.
