This article wasn’t what I thought it was going to be. There always seems to be a focus on the screen time children, and this seemed no different. From the title, I assumed this was going to be about the screen time of the adults raising those children. When adults are scrolling on their phone, they generally aren’t talking or interacting with the children around them, which must drastically reduce the number of words a child hears.
The Skoda I just rented in Portugal has real controls but they were really horrible. Even once I got used to their locations, I regularly made something happened than I wanted. Rear windows open instead of front, etc. There's even a control for the digital dashpanel enticing one to play with the display while driving.
I guess that makes sense, but it seems like a bad choice.

We have LTS which is ubiquitous, even EL might have been better than XL which has a well defined meaning.
> I wonder how does he actually work as a digital nomad.

I suspect the secret here is that a lot of people adopting this type of lifestyle produce really mediocre output and some way or another fit into the gaps at a large company that doesn't conduct aggressive performance reviews.

Everyone is different but I find it hard to believe that high quality code is generated from working consistently in that type of environment. Perhaps lots and lots of boilerplate.

The times are different though. Plus the time when there tends to be the most traffic is when train fairs can be so ludicrous that it was not unreasonable for a group of 4 to consider chartering a helicopter from Bath to London instead.

> high up north as Kiruna in Sweden

His northenmost point seems to have been Narvik (across the border in Norway). From what I can tell, that’s almost 70km (more than 40 miles) north of Kiruna.
No idea where you're getting your info from, but as sibling comment said, I doubt there are many "Democratic politicians" advocating for abortion until day before birth. Sorry to inform you, but it seems like you've been fed (and are repeating) misinformation.
Yes, europlug works everywhere in mainland EU (Not in Ireland and Cyprus) and indeed in most of the world, which is fine for class 2 devices that the majority of kit you typically move around is.
I think this is what a lot of people don’t understand about the EU.

The EU is, rightly, seen as fairly far right on the economic spectrum by most in the EU countries. Which is not surprising considering the EU is a neoliberal project (although a very successful one).

So when someone sees a company spitting in the face of the EU one doesn’t immediately think “oh that leftist EU is at it again”. What they naturally and correctly think, wow, this company can’t even deal decently with the highly pro capitalist pro market economically right EU.
What? I've never read a law passed by Congress that makes any reading material illegal.

Clearly racial biases are embedded in the model. That wasnt simply the fastest way to build the model. They may have been too fast in releasing, but that’s not the actual cause.
This reminded me of this guy I was friends with starting in kindergarten, really smart kid, everyone kind of thought he would go on to study physics or something. Then sometime around 14 or so he started juggling and got so obsessed he would constantly practice during every break and even on the train to/from school. I think he's working as a circus artist now? Always kind of fascinated how you could get so absorbed in a topic, especially given my own propensity for rapidly cycling interests.
Modern Git Commands and Features You Should Be Using
Firstly, they don't, not even a tiny bit. All they care about is "numba go up" and "numba not go down".

The fact that they've rustled your jimmies means they've mostly succeeded in their supporting objective - getting you to think they are actually engaged, and not just playing whatever side serves their ends at this current moment.

Secondly, if you don't think they aren't promoting reactionary claptrap for clicks, I have to presume you don't use their services all that much.
I took the Ackermann function [1] from Rosetta Code [2]:

function ack(m: number, n: number): number {
return m === 0 ? n + 1 : ack(m - 1, n === 0 ? 1 : ack(m, n - 1));
}

I tried `ack(m = 2, n = 2)` but the recursion depth prevented (3, 2) or (2, 3).

This is basically just an American fantasy.

It's a way to make the point that "since these foreigners are so ungrateful, we will stop blessing them with our wonderful products if they don't please us, and then they will have to live in the mud and the cold like they used to do before, without an iPhone or a Twitter account".

>You don't need to think statistically, you need to parent.

Indeed. Parent with the assumption that your child will become a statistic.
Atlas Shrugged was published in 1957, I'm pretty sure people opposed excessive government regulation before the 1980s.
The caveat here is that either you have really good self-control and prevent yourself from sinking into time wormholes like social media (is Hacker News one?) and video platforms, or you artificially create barriers that prevent you from falling into these digital distractions.

I happen to use the latter method to get things done. I don't know what the real solution to this is, because since I'm the one who creates firewalls on all my devices, I also happen to know how to work around them and turn them off. With enough time spent with firewalls on, I have slowly started to forget that I can turn the firewall off. But the internal urge sometimes breaks this discipline and the end result is often hours spent on YouTube or Hacker News (like right now, typing this comment).
I don't understand. What is the attack there, and what does Django catch? In my experience with Rails and Phoenix, I'd expect that to just 404.

But it looks like maybe you're implying the double curly braces allows someone to inject some sort of eval block. Is that a Django thing?
It would be odd if the child had this and developed the accent of the AI, rather than of the parents.
According to you, when does a child earn their own share of sunlight, so their parents are not "overusing" their share?

Is it at a certain age, or is that only for children born latest at $YOUR_BIRTHYEAR?
Treating content without bias and having some things you don't like crop up next to the things you do like isn't "promoting" anything one way or the other. The moment you start meddling with boosting or deboosting things, you get into censorship territory. This is what the people fixated on "misinformation" or "disinformation" or "malinformation" or "information I don't like" don't get. Doubly so when they act like their favorite scientists, journalists and pundits are always right. Speaking of confirmation bias...

And speaking of masks as well, recall how early on in the corona debacle, The Science said that they don't work... :)

But we don't have to cheer on that company.
It always puzzles me how people can get the fact, some tiny ones, and still come to completly false conclusions.

E.g. NATO membership means a country isn't souvereign (independent is notbthe correct term) anymore. Or ignoring that France was a foibding member of the EWG. Or believing Hermany controls the EU (a claim that dates back to the financial crisis of 2008 and was as wrong then as it is now), or that Germany (small correction, you actually mean the German Greens) forced France to halt nuclear power. Or ignoring that the US nuclear industry is doing not great, including after the purchase of French companies. I could go on, but you get the picture I hope.
>On the other side you argue for no restrictions, typically until the day before birth

Only if you suck down way too much of the conservative news. The right wing media here makes up a lot of this bullshit that has zero basis in reality. Find one elected democratic official at the congressional level that says the day before birth is an acceptable solution.

Meanwhile look at the actual laws conservative states are passing. They are going for a total ban even in the case of rape and horrific birth defects. Don't both sides this. It's not even close.
This is a very good article. Overall, I believe that the American lifestyle, media, and politics are so pervasive and have such a global reach that many American managers (as well as academics) find themselves unable to work internationally.

They truly believe that everything operates just like it does at home, and, on the surface, it appears to: everyone speaks English and has watched Friends.

However, institutions are complex and multi-layered entities. Americans often struggle to deeply understand the institutional specificities of other countries, resulting in behavior that can be perceived as lacking humility or even as arrogant—worse yet, as superficial. A case in point is Apple.

It's paradoxical: the more global your home culture becomes, the less able you are to perceive nuance and depth.
> No, it's because they are lazy, not because of political beliefs.

You don't get a system that will happily output text summaries of the achievements of any ethnic group except Caucasians without political beliefs being a factor.

Either allow the query for all ethnicities, or none. Don't give a straight answer unless the query is for Caucasians, whereupon you lecture the user on how wrong they are for even asking that question.

And is there any wonder Electron has such a terrible reputation?

The thing that really bothers me is that if you look at what regular home and office users were doing on their computers in the 90's it's almost identical to what those users are doing right now, except in the 90's they had orders of magnitude slower computers with orders of magnitude less memory. Yet in many cases those 90's computers were MORE RESPONSIVE than what they have today.

All of those countless billions of investment in technology hasn't done a damn thing for the productivity of Sally the office worker or Billy the 6th grader. Arguably, it's made their lives worse (viz. social media's deleterious effects on mental health). Now everyone's pushing the heck out of AI and all I see is high schoolers using ChatGPT to cheat themselves out of an education. They can't read (critically), they can't write, they can't even spell!

So in light of all that, why should we be pushing more and more computing power (and memory, the original issue) on regular users who aren't getting any benefit (broadly, to their way of life) out of it?

Gosh, now I sound like a luddite!
I had the same initial reaction as you, but steel-manning I think it makes sense that they wrote it awkwardly. I still think they're being overly dismissive and reactionary, but given this affects their income they are probably a little justified in receiving this bot-driven algorithmic bad news poorly.

I'm guessing they mean something like, "let's look at the case with everything in the book on it and see if it's valid. It's not valid, therefore this is capricious and arbitrary". For that to work, I'm also assuming that they aren't software engineers and don't understand how ML and Google work. They might even be thinking that there is a human reviewing their site and giving that determination. If you think that it was a human, I could definitely see where you'd find it capricious and arbitrary.

But on that note actually I just touched one of my own nerves. Maybe we should be holding them to the "human" standard. I am abolutely sick of living in the algorithmic world where some algorithm makes a decision about me and I'm stuck with the fallout of that decision with no recourse. I think we need to start considering bot activity from a company as the same level of liability as a human.
Super shitty intro on this article. I had to say it
I actually like my commute into Edinburgh - it's very scenic, you go over the Forth Bridge and I always get a seat. There was a while when the trains were less reliable but since the Scottish government took over direct management of the rail company things seem a lot better.
Like you say, I think what's being discovered is the lack of utility in these things. These techbro companies with Gemini, ChatGPT, etc. are just rediscovering that human to human communication is hard and cannot be automated and that human illustrators, artists, animators, writers, etc. have real, actualizable value.

And it's rediscovering that we suck at prompting even humans, much less systems that have no idea what they're doing and just statistically stitch and glue data together.

These LLMs are just exposing that humans are fairly bad at communication and they are encoding that into automated systems.
Let's check all those items with the Tesla Model 3 2024 manual

To engage a turn signal, press the corresponding arrow button on the left side of the steering wheel. (The buttons move on the Highland steering wheel)

Turn signals:
To turn on the hazard warning flashers, press the button on the drive mode selector located on the overhead center. All turn signals flash. Press again to turn off.

Hazard lights:
Overhead console drive mode selector with arrow pointing to hazard warning light button in the middle.

If a severe crash is detected by your vehicle, the hazard warning flashers will automatically turn on and flash quickly to increase visibility. Pressing the hazard warning flashers once will return the lights to their normal cadence. Pressing a second time turns all hazard warning flashers off.

To sound the horn, press and hold the center pad on the steering wheel.

You can access wiper settings by touching the wiper button on the steering wheel

Press the wiper button on the steering wheel to wipe the windshield.

Press and hold the wiper button to spray washer fluid onto the windshield. After releasing the button, the wipers perform two additional wipes then, depending on vehicle and environmental conditions, a third wipe a few seconds later. You can also press and hold the wiper button for a continuous spray of washer fluid—the wipers perform the wipes after you release.

Whenever you press the wiper button on the steering wheel, the touchscreen displays the wiper menu, allowing you to adjust wiper settings. Press the left scroll button on the steering wheel left or right to choose your desired setting.

Yes, that is what I was getting at. The cheat is that none of that information is available in the snapshots. And we use the snapshot, as that is what all of the other tooling creates and works with.

The fact that most people using git don't refer to the snapshots as a thing is pretty much how invisible that is to all of our tooling. It isn't a special thing, it is the thing.

If you are pushing for a state based crdt that can be reconstructed from snapshots, then you aren't needing to change get as a whole, but only the diffing tool? If you want all diffs to be based on the edits users did, you aren't wanting to change get, as much as all of the tooling users use. No?
I called the take stupid, not you. Small, but important difference.
This just isn’t true. Hyperbole isn’t always appropriate just because it has a name and is a “literary device.”
I prefer arguing about reality rather than people’s sentiments. The poster’s argument is useless because of the obviously false assumption of “unlimited workers”, which means the hyperbole did nothing (and actually derailed the conversation and wasted time). Basically what the talking heads on tv “news” channels do to get people to rage and then we end up having measles outbreaks because someone had the sentiment that vaccines are harmful.
You sound completely and utterly brainwashed amigo.
Or as social criticism! A lot of tech giants seem to be trying to bring about the techno-future of scifi and completely missing the point that a lot of it is a dystopian hellscape serving as a thin veil over commentary on contemporary society.
Yeah that’s been my experience with IPFS. Very cool idea, practically doesn’t work very well. Haven’t tried recently though, maybe it’s improved.
Yeah, and if they don't like Android either, they still have the choice of not having a phone at all, therefore not having a job, medical care, a house, ... Maybe, you should consider the context of antitrust legislation and what that entails for your argument.

And maybe baby, you should also explore, if you may be affected by a cultural economic dogma founded in times of red scare propaganda. Because these naive free market takes tend to come up a bit reflexively in some people, but are actually very rare for economic scientists.

I can't agree. If you look at the impact of Darwinism and "Social Darwinism" (English ideas) on Continental European politics in the lead up to WWI you would change your mind quickly. You can even go look at Christianity, a near-Eastern philosophy, and note how this form of identity politics is also foreign influence playing a role in domestic politics across Europe.
It is worthwhile contemplating who is benefiting from “my opponents are brain dead retards”.
> These places are run by people who think they know better then you and will try to condition you towards their political beliefs one way or the other. The only thing they learnt here is that they have to be more discreet about it.

Correct. The worst part is Google (and others) know it and will do everything they can to make sure that their reality distortion spells is still conditioning you.

Once the issues are so widespread in the public such as Gemini's image generator the spell breaks and there is little room for them to spin it.

We're now seeing what happens when reality kicks in and all the perks and goodies are taken away when it is wartime - exposing lots of slackers and coasters at Google.
Funny, a lot of the things you mentioned are either in the German Grindgesetz or enshrined in law. Partially as a reaction to movements trying to curb those laws.

Most people who aren't working in Brussels have zero idea about how the EU functions at all.

Brexit voting towns that were shocked to find various programs shuttered once they got what they'd voted for are a great example of this.
"Now that I know so many of the legacy brands are French, the fact that French’s is called “French’s” and describes itself as “American flavor in a bottle” is kind of funny (and American)."

According to McCormick's (owner of French's Mustard brand) website:

"George and Francis French, sons of R.T. French introduced French’s Classic Yellow Mustard, served over hot dogs at the St. Louis World’s Fair."

So, named for the creators in 1904, not for a specific association with the country.
"There's no cure" for type 2 diabetes is true only on a technicality. Type 2 diabetes is defined as a progressive disease, which means that if you actually practically cure it, it is still technically defined as "in remission". It's just words.

> This is the exact problem though, noone really cares what the law says, they care that now they have annoying cookie banners. They don't blame the businesses for this; they blame the EU.

European here. I squarely blame the business, and often turn back when hit by a particularly obnoxious banner.

> This is how Brexit happened, remain tried to explain this stuff over and over again and no one wants to hear it. They want the cookie banners gone, or the bendy banana rules gone. The EU makes itself an easy target everytime they add more.

Nah, that's stupid. The bendy banana thing isn't a law, it's a class descriptor. It just says that if you want to sell bananas labelled as "class A" they can't be bent into a pretzel. Because go figure, when a restaurant buys what is advertised as high quality produce, they don't want to get a shipment full of ugly stuff that doesn't look good on the plate.

But you absolutely can sell weird, ugly but still edible bananas. They just have to be described properly.

That's again, what the article is speaking about here.

> If nothing else was learned from Brexit that should have been the thing. There actually isn't a point where you can spend enough money to convince people of this stuff when they don't want to hear it.

Haven't changed my mind in the slightest on that. Brexit was a stupid idea and as far as I can see, the UK failed to profit from it.
It's probably that too, but if you look a little deeper you will see they put their thumb on the scale in all of their products. Google News media bias representation, manually curated search suggestions, even Google images has very strange results if you look up anything where race or intersectionalism can be injected.
It’s almost as if large investments are a sign of a good economic outlook.
I think this is a pessimistic view of the situation and I don't subscribe to it being the norm today.

I run a (still small, 1.5M ARR) tech startup and we treat our employees fairly. Low / clean investment table, early exercise for employees that make early employee risk effectively 0, upfront about how to deal with options, alongside market salaries.

But maybe I am not the norm and it's more common for people to get screwed over. However, I have several friends at startups that have similar recent stories with their options.
Since you seem to know so much about EU law, can you show me where exactly GDPR requires cookie banners. Or talks about cookies, banners, or even browsers?
