> It’s just reductionism: if changing data is bad, changing data is always bad.

It's not reductionism, and you're missing the point.

The whole point is that changing the original data to be able to support/reject hypothesis naturally raises the question of whether there is foul play.

If original measurements don't support your claim and suddenly by changing data you get it to fit your belief, any rational analysis would quickly flag the risk of data manipulation and scientific malpractice.

If instead you're dealing with a politically charged topic that attracts denialists and contrarians then you're making yourself vulnerable to accusations of fraud that will certainly be used to poison the well.

Do you understand why this is a problem?
nope. you would indeed need more evidence than mere racial disparity in the distribution of inmates. thankfully such evidence exists, not least in the base rates of crimes in both populations compared to their prison populations -- but even such things arent needed, we have legislators on record explaining the motivations of the drug laws (et al.)

there are people alive today whose grandparents were born slaves, we need not pretend we live in some world where society operates on egalitarian principles. The last slaves died in the 40s, 50s; institutional racism as an explicit policy of the state and of core economic and political institutions carried on until at least the 90s.

this isnt speculation

> Because it turns people off to much.

No, that's not what she said at all! Her main point was that the "hot models" were not being considered as very reliable because they showed poor power predicting past climate when compared to other models, but when applied to predicting the weather within shorter periods (e.g. a few days) they were actually better, so that gives weight to the hypothesis that the "hot models" are actually more accurate than previously thought, so they may need to adjust the currently accepted rates of warming to be higher... scientists didn't downplay the "hot models" because they were trying to make people more comfortable - that would be doing terrible science! Science doesn't care about feelings.

There is plenty of legal, ethical and professional liability for a lawyer giving the wrong answer, we don't often see the outcome of these things because like everything in the courts they take a long time to get resolved and also some answers are not wrong just "less right" or "not really that wrong."

I’ve always thought a carbon tax where the revenue is distributed directly to citizens in the form of a monthly check or bank deposit could be popular, or at least accepted by the public. Especially if it starts small and then ramps up over time.

If I remember correctly: Ships were using a particular type of gas that was outlawed recently. Turns out it was also acting as a coolant for the atmosphere. The bad news is that global warming is further along than we expected. The good news is that we now have evidence that a global campaign for cooling the atmosphere can actually work.

Can’t find sources right now, but it was very interesting when it came out ~6 months ago.

Hope so! From my lifetime of observing humans though, I don't agree.
Australia is already having a bit of reckoning due to climate change in the way of mega fires and multiple "hundred year" floods per year in populated areas. At the last federal election, a newish political movement of independents took a large number of seats in parliament. This was possible due to preferential voting (like stacked voting in USA). The left party won power and has done very little on addressing climate change.

I'm now convinced that political will just isn't there even if the people are there (Large emitters donate to politicians). So I see an inevitable path where geoengineering will be seriously on the agenda inside 15 years.
The acceleration of the "hype cycle" has to be scary from the view of TikTok. When your hype shot upward that fast, it's liable to drop just as quickly.
"There is also no legal liability for GPT for giving the wrong answer."

I mean, i get your point but lets be real: I cannot count the number of times I sat in a meeting and looked back at a contract and wished some element had a different structure to it. In law there are a lot of "wrong answers" someone could foolishly provide, but its way more often something more variable as to how "wrong" the answer is, than it is a binary bad/good piece of advice.

I personally feel the ability to have more discussion about a clause is extremely helpful, v's getting the a hopefully "right answer" from a lawyer, and counting the clock / $ as you try wrap your head around the advice you're being given. If you have deep pockets, you invite your lawyer to a lot of meetings, they have context and away you go....but for a lot of people, you're just involving the lawyer briefly and trying to avoid billable hours. That's been me at the early stage of everything, and it's a very tricky balance.

If you're a startup trying to use GPT, i say do it, but also use a lawyer. Augmenting the lawyer with GPT to save billable hours so you can turn up to a meeting with your lawyer and extract the most value in the shortest time period seems like the best play to me.
Obviously I have no evidence to back this up, but it seems to mostly be used on the Internet in an intellectually lazy way to avoid confronting the fact that many people really are malicious, and the effect of Hanlon's razor, in my experience, is to lower the quality of discourse (which is why I think its invocation is usually malicious even if it's not intended to be).

Edit (addendum):

> but then I remember to never ascribe to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

Even though there's plenty of evidence of malice in Hollywood. For an example that everyone agrees on, there's military propaganda in almost all movies and video games made about the military.
People warn you for all sort of stuff. You need some experience to know what is hyperbole and ground truths.

> Do you think trying to force everyone to radically alter their lifestyles is going to work any better?

I don't know where you think I said that. However, climate change is going to force radically altered lifestyles, and if you disagree with this, you simply aren't paying any attention.

> Once again I find myself confused when so-called environmentalists seamlessly shift between "renewables will soon be so cheap and abundant that there's no need for nuclear power" to "we're all doomed unless we strictly ration energy and abolish capitalism".

It seems like you're creating an argument that I did not present out of thin air. Have fun arguing with your strawman.
I've see much more limited versions of this. Living a $150k lifestyle on $65k income. Basically, blending in with the 20-something white collar scene. Then, they throw a wedding, and it removes all doubt :)
Sadly for the AdGuard team, there isn't much of an audience for this. It's one of those things everyone says they want but few people will actually install one, much less maintain one over time. Add to that the wife-forced uninstalls and the total long-term audience for this is (no kidding) in the thousands.

Given how extensive the latest wave of gamedev layoffs was, I'm worried that this is gonna impact game development going forwards. Many devs will just... not work on games anymore and find a more stable career, and those people will be out of this market forever.

Their choice of the word “percentage” is incongruent with meaning “absolute.”
Sadly, this is true. However, I get the impression that it's more common now than it used to be.
An electric car isn't really a lower impact solution for a large amount of the US population. From what I'm able to find, the lowest priced EV (Chevy Bolt) starts around $27k currently[0], whereas the cheapest gas car (Nissan Versa) starts at $17k[1]. This is without even accounting for the larger difference in the used car market, cost of installing a level 2 EV charger (which is another $1k-$2.5k[2], which is necessary for anybody who does any significant amount of traveling in a single day), or the 25% higher insurance premiums for EVs[3]. All said the difference between the two options is a pretty significant difference for most of the population who are already struggling because of the significant inflation rates experienced in recent years[4].

I think the gaming industry in general has use the passion that devs have for games as a good excuse to not pay more, which obviously has worked.

> The best thing was that the player base appreciated every one of us, and constantly thanked us for making things better.

I work in games and this is honestly one of my biggest drivers. I of course love the game as well and want to make it better, but community praise is just next level energy for me.

Over the last few years many of us at our studio have been doxxed, threatened, called on our personal phones, etc. and that can really take the wind out of my sails. But when you get some positive or constructive feedback about trying to make the game better it really helps.

Working in games has the opportunity to be such a collaborative process with coworkers and community and it is awesome when it works well.
Thank you for your answers, they were very helpful.

When the Mercedes-Benz Source Code Exposure happened I remembered I wasn't doing secrets management in the proper way, but good to know there's less risk since I'm a solo developer. But Doppler looks worth a shot.
I don't think so. Right now the renewables push is 90% about China: they're the biggest global emitter and also (previously) had the biggest rate of emissions growth. They're now expected to plateau this year and enter a structural decline. And China is still deploying renewables at an unbelievable rate [1] as of last month.

[1] https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/chinas-wind-solar-ca...
I think it's the opposite. The push for politics to do something is having an impact, we are making progress in lowering emissions. But it's not enough, and there are constraints on democratically elected leaders. Eventually, public sentiment will change, but not soon enough.
Heard GM is brining back Voltec. Should never have discontinued it but instead rolled it out to the entire lineup.

Easy fix. Simply increase immigration to a million+ people per year thereby driving down domestic wages and now voila we have cheap domestic labour.
But if you are milking you don't have bulls. Maybe you have one (though almost everyone uses artificial insemination these days). Worrying about milking bulls is like worrying about the NetWare server - once common but has been obsolete since before many reading this were even born.

True enough and with modern hardware that barrier is relatively high. IIRC Stack overflow was handling several million users in a single database server over a decade ago... We've got over 8x the compute power and memory now.

Exactly. Just like it's well known that you can get screwed 10 different ways with startup equity, yet here we all are.
Are we reading the same comment? OP said

>I tried to compute an estimate of the current percentage of the US population that's forced labor vs. at the peak of the pre-abolition slave trade, and from what I can tell, it's currently higher than it ever was back then.

It's explicitly talking about "percentage" at the start. It would be weird if they silently switched to absolute numbers afterwards.
explain flat soft drinks... Your beer, champaign, and all carbonated drinks contain CO2 that is dissolved in solution and as the temperature increases as it sits in your glass the CO2 comes out of solution.

This isn't an IQ test: now think of the oceans, as temperature changes the solubility of CO2 changes inversely proportional to temperature just like your soda pop becomes flat when it warms up. Additionally this is why soft drinks are served cold.
I’ve been using NextDNS for a little while and don’t remember having issues with captive portals on my iPhone. Maybe something changed?

Show HN: Summary – The daily number game that thinks it's a word game
Today's puzzle: VISION + PRO = VORTEX

Each letter is a unique number. Can you make it all add up?

There is a new puzzle each day. Sometimes topical to the day's news, sometimes not. Prior ones, to get an idea of them:

MINIMUM + MAXIMUM = EXTREMA
LOL + LMAO = FUNNY
OSCAR + NOMS = BARBIE
DEFAMED + DEFAMED = EXPENSE
> But day after day, over decades, surely the minuscule amount of heat being generated by activity on the surface has SOME cumulative effect. Or maybe not, i dont know.

What if you apply the same logic to the sun? Shouldn't we be getting hotter and hotter every day from the cumulative heat from the sun until we all cook? The reason we don't is that the earth is constantly radiating heat out into space. [1]

This is connected to why carbon dioxide is the primary driver of the current warming trend: it absorbs some of the infrared that would go back into space and sends it back down again. We know that this happens, we know that carbon dioxide concentrations are increasing due to fossil fuels, we know that temperatures are increasing.

'Infrastructural changes' -> Seems like it can be subsumed in 'tweaking the economy', did you mean 'structural changes'? And if so, do you think people who are unwilling to pay $10/mo to avert climate change are going to support structural changes to the economy to do so?

It has been a while since I read that book, but after skimming through clig.dev I gather opinions have changed over time quite a bit.
not a popular opinion, but I agree completely - if you are trying to sell a message of sacrifice to the common person, being preached to, by people who own and travel in private jets , while they return to one of their many 20 bedroom mansions located just feet above the sea that is supposed to have a devastating rise any day now - it is very, very easy to see why people just shrug it all off as scare tactics when they are asked to give up their tiny little gas lawn mover or gas stove.

May not be fair, and may not be scientific - but the message delivery matters - ignore it at your own peril.

Gaming has become more of a show biz industry than ever. Lots of winner-take-all and lots of potential for worker abuse in companies that don't quite make it.

On the other hand, the industry is also filled with a ton of "barely above mediocre" games that just copy the latest hype trend on twitch, so it's not so good for gamers that don't like to slog through a bunch of drivel while browsing Steam for new things to play.

Basically, the chances of making it big in gaming are pretty slim, and most devs would be better off doing something else for a bigger and steadier paycheck. I don't see this changing in the next 10 years.
