I'd answer this from two perspectives.

As a forecaster: It's fun! It's an interesting way to learn about the world -- rather than gathering inert facts, you're forced to integrate them into a mental model, and then your model is tested for its validity empirically. It's also difficult and competitive, if you like that sort of thing.

As a consumer of forecasts: There's good research that prediction markets and other forecast aggregators are the best technology we have as a society for quantifying uncertainty. Not everyone will listen to them, just like not everyone eats their veggies, but c'est la vie.

I don't think there's too much risk of self-defeating forecasts (where a low forecast lulls decision makers into a false sense of security) - at least not yet. They're still pretty niche.
Surprised how calm and underwhelmed comments are.

Sure it is no senior architect but the trajectory is insane. Wasn’t that long ago that LLMs barely managed coherent poems. Now it’s troubleshooting code problems on its own?

Sure it’s just a gpt4 wrapper but that implies the same can be done with gpt5 and six etc.

Project it forward and that does actually become non trivial
AIs aren't good enough to fly it autonomously. That means it would have to be controlled, which means it would have to continuously transmit situational information back to the controller. So goodbye stealth.
They offered the 80387 co-processor a few years after the 80386 came out

Doctor of osteopathy (DO). My first doctor as an adult was a DO and treated things like sinus infections with medication, but when I picked up a ladder and something popped in my back, he adjusted my spine and put it back into place and almost instantly it stopped hurting.
1. Development started in 2000, and the first airframe (albeit with non-finalized parts) rolled off in 2006.
2. The pilot can make independent decisions even in the presence of overwhelming communication jamming.
I feel like that sometimes too, and I get especially annoyed when I think it is being done to to make me scroll through more ad impressions. I don't think that is the case with this one though. Writers are creative, and they want people to enjoy their writing on a level that is more than just digesting the pertinent facts. My guess is that this author thought they'd whet our appetite enough that we'd want to read the rest of the article. The rest of the article IS interesting but IMO kind of a non-sequitur to the main premise and to your point, gets in the way.
For me my most powerful migraines have an aura attached to them. The visual distraction is nothing more than an omen of the pain I will be in for when it goes away. For me my auras always have some hippy 60s trippy oil smear going on in them which is just scary to me.

My first one happened at work during a very stressful period in my career. It was very scary and I took a sick day to go to the hospital where they hadn't had much experience dealing with this. Bright lights, many questions later and finally getting here's some migraine medicine I was let go to research this on my own.
Look up 'turnover rent'...
I will, thank you. Any info is very helpful.
It's actually not awful, and besides, without an oven or grill or fryer, how good could it possibly be?
The Morris worm affected around 2000 VAX machines a couple of years previously, and was the first ever such incident on that scale. In other words, almost nobody in 1990 had been affected by a computer security incident. It didn't make sense in 1990 to prioritise this security threat over efficiency concerns.

Insisting on memory safety back then would be like insisting on code being accompanied by checkable formal proofs of correctness now: It's a technique that can be applied right now and that does improve safety, but it comes at such a cost that the tradeoff only makes sense for a handful of niche applications (aerospace, automotive, medical devices).
I do hope we don’t end up wishing we had pulled out of NATO.
None of this is inconsistent with changing the level of amplification of certain topics in concordance with the preferences of the CCP, which is what the evidence appears to point to.

I'm not sure why this piece mentions deregulation. The drinks limit was in 1956, while the sandwich spat was in 1958 – but deregulation wasn't until 1978, two decades later!

The collusion in question seems to only relate to regulation, which prohibited the airlines from competing on price. The incentives obviously don't work out the same with deregulation!
Aren’t the 6th gen European fighters likely going to be exported too? Granted that is not here and now.

The Korean Boramae is also likely to be exported. But there, granted it’s more a 4.5gen plane unless/until they iterate further.
> bring down the average laborers value.

Labor has never been to afford so much luxury as the modern day.
if you look through the comments you'll see there's little discussion of the weaponry. The fascinating thing is how huge this project is and how it has become one of the most expensive things ever built.

See this from wikipedia, for example:
The JSF program was expected to cost about $200 billion for acquisition in base-year 2002 dollars when SDD was awarded in 2001.[56][57] As early as 2005, the Government Accountability Office (GAO) had identified major program risks in cost and schedule.[58] The costly delays strained the relationship between the Pentagon and contractors.[59] By 2017, delays and cost overruns had pushed the F-35 program's expected acquisition costs to $406.5 billion, with total lifetime cost (i.e., to 2070) to $1.5 trillion in then-year dollars which also includes operations and maintenance.[60][61][62] The F-35A's unit cost for LRIP Lot 13 was $79.2 million.[63] Delays in development and operational test and evaluation, including integration into the Joint Simulation Environment, pushed full-rate production decision to March 2024, although actual production rate had already approached the full rate by 2020; full rate at the Fort Worth plan is 156 aircraft annually.[64][65]
Well if the iPhone was not locked down and one could install open source freeware yes. There are apps for almost anything you can imagine for free on a pc. Look at OpenOffice for example. Free where ms version is quite costly. People are passionate about sharing things. Yes there are paid software that is great and I think they should be allowed as well but they should also have to keep innovating and offer something to entice customers like real human support for example. But open source freeware also has a place but it is being blocked for “security “ which too is alright but at the end of the day we have these phones which are very powerful mini computers and if I want to risk my security I should be allowed to install anything I want. This is why I was into jailbreaking back in the day. I bought an iPhone and the guy at the cell store sold me 1000 video messages with my plan. Be me surprised to learn there was not even a way to take videos on the iPhone back then (people think this is bull shit but it is the truth iPhone only had a camera back then no video). When I searched how to take videos I learned about cycorder available on cydia. Then I learned about jailbreak and took the chance and did it. Then I was able to take videos. Although apple slowly closed the gap a jailbroken phone was far more superior for years. My current iPhone is jailbreakable but I have been out of the scene a long time so not sure I want to mess around I think it might break my banking app not positive but haven’t the time to figure it all out.
If you are looking for TLDR:

1. Define policies using declarative language Rego

2. Deploy OPA alongside your service as a sidecar in Kubernets

3. Make your service queries OPA when it needs to make policy decisions, passing the current state/context as input.

4. OPA evaluates the policies written in Rego against the input and returns a decision (allow or deny) back to your service.

Found it's hard to convince everyone around to use OPA/Rego and wrap into a managed service. The main objection - wrapping another DSL (domain-specific language) is hard.

However it was relatively simple to convince my team to use featured complete Go library Ladon https://github.com/ory/ladon

Ladon is inspired by AWS IAM Policies.

{

"description": "One policy to rule them all.",

"subjects": ["users:<peter|ken>", "users:maria", "groups:admins"],

"actions" : ["delete", "<create|update>"],

"effect": "allow",

"resources": [
"resources:articles:<.*>",
"resources:printer"
],

"conditions": {

"remoteIP": {

"type": "CIDRCondition",

"options": {

"cidr": "192.168.0.1/16"

}

}

}

}

All policies are loaded on the app start, stored in memory (not DB) and checked with the help of small middleware which triggered the following function.

func (l *Ladon) DoPoliciesAllow(r *Request, policies []Policy) (err error)

https://github.com/ory/ladon/blob/972387f17e29c529ad3ff42a84...

Very negligible perfomance hit. Code is very simple, hackable, and can be subject for further optimisations.

Ladon is very fast. It's possible to run all user groups against all CRUD routes, and get the basic permission matrix or build some simple UI forms to test condition for better control.

P.s. Feel free to ping me in private @reactima (github, telegram) if you want to discuss the edge cases for the above.
"You know how Donald Trump loves the trappings of office but has no interest in the actual work of a president, doesn’t think about issues, and skates through by winging it?"

Comparing Trump who got things done for the America people to what we have in the White House now; clearly the rest of the linked document can be 100% discounted.
Perhaps because it was a better deal than any of the alternatives. I left a startup a few months before it was (as far as I know) acquihired, partly because I could see the end of the runway approaching. All of the extant team were offered roles at the acquiring company, which I'm sure they and their families appreciated. Is "all they get out of it is to work at Amazon" preferable to a Big $$$ Exit? Maybe not. But the latter may not have been an option IRL. As a side note, I've been working at Amazon for nearly ten years now, and I have not been displeased with the improvement in my financial situation thereby.
how would that happen?
The nice man cold calling here won't be a f*cking idiot so he won't try to get her to jump through a bunch of complicated technical hoops that will surely fail because your poor meemaw is not tech savy enough to pull it off, to turn on a buried setting then visit a sketchy website then download and locate a package then agree to the warning at the package install and he isn't an idiot and knows that so he will just tell meemaw he's from the bank and he needs her credentials and she'll turn them over or hang up the phone. That you think the App Store is protecting her bank account is effing laughable. Malware is the very last thing a baddie on the phone with your poor meemaw is going to try and you either know that and are feigning stupidity or the alternative.

https://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/security.png needs a companion for people like you who infantalize seniors (if they're 80, they were using Windows 7 at work before they retired) and make up hacker scenarios that would never happen to seniors to defend an indefensible position that is "I stan Apple, or possibly all multi-trillion dollar mega-corporations with walled gardens, because hacking is for losers and I'm here on a hacking forum to let everyone know that."

Obviously Apple doesn't hold the EU's values in high regard (few people in the Bay or even the US do), so of course they will try to fight it. It's perfectly rational and even expected behavior.
What about those things?

Are you trying to make some criticism or suggest a todo list to someone? I genuinely can't tell.
> If the computer is 100% reliable only for 18 hours, and the plane cannot fly for longer than 12 hours in the first place, is that a problem?

It is a problem if it requires a human to remember to do the procedure, especially if it is not done on every flight. Putting it on the checklist, but making it optional per situation, is asking for someone to make a mistake.

The reset should happen on every flight, if forgetting it on the wrong flight could potentially lead to an incident.
Enough at least to reserve substantive comment until I have enough sense of what I'd be talking about to have something worthwhile to say. Takes all kinds to make a world, though.
The future is missiles, drones, and the F-35.
Is that issue with Cedar related to their design or just the current way it's exposed by AWS?
Hopefully this comes to fruition (with AMD on board too). I wonder if it might spur some more hobbyist OS research.
Ask HN: Has AI improved your life in any way?
Just wondering...do you feel like AI has even begun to deliver on its promise. Is it making your life better?
Tax money spent on it. Does it effectively make every every taxpayer citizen a shareholder? Shareholders deserve to know project spending and efficiency.
Because in all those professions, there is enough time to follow a process, or (in the case of pilots) their survival is linked to the survival of everyone else.

In a typical police apprehension, there may be a second or less to draw your weapon and fire. Nobody would take the job if they had to be perfect or lose their freedom or life savings.

Speaking of life savings, most of the criminals they apprehend have nothing to lose. So maybe you're on to something. Let's hire police who are currently incarcerated and have no assets, family or wealth to lose. Then they can be subject to the draconian measures of your fantasy and worst case is they got a few months of freedom. Smart guy you are:)

We are sending these billions to domestic defence industry, that will sending older equipment to various wars, and we are keeping the newer stuff
Wouldn't components get cheaper over the long term? Manufacturing must get better during the years and old tech should not be that secret anymore. 30 years to optimise the manufacturing line to make the same components? What I am missing?
Funny story from today while briefly on hold for a support rep. Got the standard 'we'll call you back if you want blah blah' followed by - I kid not - "you're estimated wait time for the next representative is 0.58333333 minutes"

At the end of the call I suggested if she can log a problem for IT to include this and that they should either round up or use seconds (I suspect it was 35 seconds)

I do often think people forget that when the iPhone app store was released it was a game changer. The whole idea of a single place to download all apps and games was great for most people. It meant that everything was there, in the one place and managed through that one app.

Now a decade has passed and we're asking for change. That's fine, but we can't forget that when the app store first came out there wasn't this hysteria around the need to sideload. The app store as a place for developers to publish their apps was huge, Apple did the publishing for you. How that we all have more choice, we're expecting Apple to change to provide more choice.

But we can't forget how beneficial it was.
> And we can assume that AI can even iterate on and develop on its own understanding of these complex calculations much faster than a human can, making it significantly better at navigating moral issues.

Yeah, like judging human history and deciding murderous humans need to be removed from the earth or enslaved for their own benefit. (Some people already argue that the world would be better off without humans.)

Also, we know torture is wrong because we have a sense of pain, but an AI would just have to take our word for it. That doesn't seem too balanced to me.

I use vscode and had no idea it was electron. Electron apps had a very poor reputation 10 years ago.

Yet it feels very snappy to me.
That is why it is important not only to consider the accuracy, but also the information gain of a prediction.

>> force for peace

The entire Middle East begs to differ.
Its a fair question.

DO you really want nukes on a UAV? The last step in that has always been a human, and I would like that to remain NOT on a connection that can be remotely highjacked (even if a slim margin).

The question is will we get more UCAV in the f35 role. The answer is "maybe". It's not like remote pilots on a carrier are any safer from dying in a peer engagement than if they were in the plane. In fact you may make yourself vulnerable to a decapation strike at that point.

But why dont we have the pilots in, say Arizona. Well latency is a bitch, I'll leave it to Grace Hopper to explain why this is bad: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oE2uls6iIEU
I completely read the first half of it, hoping that everything would eventually make sense, that the pieces would fall into place, but that never happened. I only skimmed the second half and everything seems to just become more and more incoherent. There are some recognizable underlying themes but nothing of it makes really any sense. If I would have to guess, I would guess that ChatGPT generated that gibberish. For large section I could at least imagine that the ideas are just way over my head, especially since I have never heard anything about promise theory and did not read the references. But page 16 really convinced me, that it all is just nonsense - how on earth do we suddenly and out of nowhere end up with differentials, Fourier series, and Heisenberg's uncertainty relation? And while the paper superficially looks sophisticated and scientific with all the symbols and notation, there is no substance behind it. The symbols are really only used for providing short labels for all kinds of things but they are [essentially] never used to relate anythings, let alone to derive or prove something.
Your list leaves out chili powder from the original intent of hummus. It's something I'm adding from the base ingredient list to give it an additional charistic. If I add chili powder to the top of my hummus, is that not turning it into an ultra processed dish in the same way as guar gum?

Isn't chili powder highly processed in the same way guar gum powder is?

I'm not arguing guar gum is good in any way. For all I know it is massively worse for me than chili powder. Maybe it causes indigestion or irritates my gut. But why can't we use a label like that instead of just an ultra nebulous term of "ultra processed" where some people get to seemingly arbitrarily define what is and is not highly processed?

Where in any of those definitions listed does it suggest any idea of intent for if something is "highly processed"? If intent is what matters, is adding pineapple to pizza, something that should never be done, be considered the thing that makes it highly processed, or should pizza just always be considered highly processed from the start? After all, it's not whole foods, it's being subjected to high temperatures, contains highly processed foods like cheese, etc. Or is cheese somehow not highly processed either?
You're getting to thd real root of the question here - Whst is most important to you? Is it the code, or the money?

Management earns more money. Partly because they control how the money is spent. Partly because they're a value-multiplier.

Coders get to write code.

You seldom get both [1].

So for each person, it's really important to understand your root motivation. If it's money, then climb the ladder. It's gun in a different way, and if done well, can bring satisfaction.

However, if writing code is eat gets you out of bed, if meetings are something you detest, then perhaps "enough money" is enough, and you might prefer enjoying your path through life.

[1] you seldom get both in a large company. However in very small companies, and one-man operations, you can often find a very lucrative niche. Fewer people means little management (although more time talking to customers) so you get to spend more time actually producing.

> absolutely a gamble, like most investing

Yeah well like I said, definitions. If most investing is gambling then sure, I just don't find that useful.

Anyway the initial comment I was responding to was 'looking for my broker but got CFDs'; my point was they got a different broker. It's still a bad search result, but it's not a weird scam, it's just a competitor. It's not the same as looking for my bank but got crypto exchange at all.
I wonder how F-35 compares to J-35 in terms of stealth. From the new generation of fighter jets coming out, looks like all the armaments are being loaded in internal bays.
Interesting that all these designs are starting to converge and look very similar.
It's a bit more complicated than that. The PBS Space Time episode "How Much Of The Universe Can Humanity Ever See?" [1] might be interesting to you.

The next episode, "How Far Beyond Earth Could Humanity Spread?" [2] might also be interesting.

Thanks for telling me what I want, I guess? there I was, being led astray by what I thought were my own preferences.
I've traveled for business a few times and a few times I got the company to pay for a first class seat up front. One time the first class cabin had a crying baby in it. Another time it was full of rowdy children. It turns out that rich people have children too. Paying for first class simply decreases your chances of dealing with such things, just like any other seat upgrade.

I suspect that airlines could offer seats which guarantee that you won't be subjected to various nuisances, but choose not to.
The app store and the Google play store are absolute garbage as far as I'm concerned.

Whatever protection they claim to offer is utterly bogus. If anything, they make it easier to leak personal information to random app makers, who, like you said, offer paid apps masquerading as free ones.

The amount of junk in the native app stores is just way too high for me to ever buy the argument that they're there to improve end user experience.
Banning TikTok wouldn’t be a dangerous precedent. Authoritarian countries do that all the time.

My concern is with forced sales. How do we ensure that the politicians’ incentives matches with ours and that they aren’t being paid behind our backs by the companies that are now able to acquire TikTok at a discount? Congress is notorious for (alleged) insider trading, they could very well profit from such a sale.

Relevant: The American Trap by Frederic Pierucci
Yeah, that came across to me as weird take as well. Like they have a point they really want to make, but just comes across very tone deaf to the actual conversation at hand (if not just missed/ignored).

I was reading service records as what conflicts it had been in, and what it's record was during those conflicts. It took a second that they were conflating this like it was a Boeing passenger plane type of thing. oy vey! There might have been a big whooshing sound as the point flew.
This is obvious for anyone who took an airlines outside of USA eg Singapore air, Emirates, Cathay and ate real food with real cutlery and got a tub of hagendaz ice cream for dessert.
