I would love for it to be better, but isn't LSD a chief victim of the war on drugs (other than fentanyl)? There's no way that there are going to be clean, quality-controlled sources of it any time soon. After all, it's a dangerous hallucinogen, and it's equally dangerous for everyone. Just like how alcohol and nicotine are equally safe for everyone.

I say this as someone who's had high doses of LSD25 before and failed to hallucinate much if at all. I don't doubt that people can, but not everyone does.

(I support decriminalization, but I want safe regulated sources to be freely available. People shouldn't have to resort to the dark web or to random dealers on the street. People should have sources that are guaranteed safe, just like other supplements.)
Absolutely not. Trusting my life to some random probably earning a bad wage in a call center for remote drivers? No.

Also such a company would have massive liabilities. You can’t just wave away killing someone with a contract clause

That’s my concern too.

I don’t like the situation with Apple, but I also am concerned about the ability for alternatives to be … a net positive for the user.

Understandably we think of some good examples of folks acting in good faith but a lot of the people offering apps… won’t.
Is there a standard objective metric that can help determine that the quality of a model has degraded over time. In that case, much like source code, you just revert to the old version.
It’s certainly not easy and apple is playing the malicious compliance game here. But it’s not impossible for a (even pre-product) startup to raise a $1M line of credit from a bank through some creative financing shenanigans without locking up too much working capital or otherwise.

Hopefully what it actually means is that AI become so mundane we treat it like electricity. It's completely unremarkable, but a miracle to those who knew about the before times.
You're right that we have a different web of concepts and emphasize different abstractions than other cultures did, but this bit paints a really misleading picture of who we're talking about and how sophisticated their ideas were:

> Ancients, without all the distractions and knowledge we have now, might have been much more attuned to their emotions. They’d likely need to be in order to survive by following intuitions and responding to low-level feelings of fear.

There's very little difference in the amount of "knowledge" between any two cultures, or really even between any two people. One culture's collective knowledge may be more reliable or more demonstrated or more productive (by some measure), but everybody's always walking around with a head 100% full of knowledge.

It's a mistake to think that Mesopotamians, Babylonians, and Greeks were "surviving by intuition" under "some low-level feeling of fear". Like us, they were building huge cities with complex trade networks and economies, with obscene bureaucratic processes and people so specialized in craft and work that their whole lives were committed to studying or teaching or keeping account balances in order.

They had rich, interwoven systems of knowledge, and the ancient Greeks in particular fancied mechanics and abstractions much the way we do -- a similarity that exists largely because we openly modeled much of modernity on their culture.

When hepatocentrism prevailed among the Greeks, it wasn't in the context of some scared, emotionally volatile people making do in caves beset by tigers and lions or something. It was in the context of highly educated urbanized people drawing sensible conclusions based on what their culture happened to emphasize in its own web of thoroughly mechanical and abstract concepts.

Some of your suggestions about what facts they were integrating are probably right and many of them are fun to speculate about, but whatever they were, they were being fit into a much more elaborate and abstract schema than you're giving credit to. These were not inbred bumpkins or wild primates making cute guesses and enshrining them in mysterious lore. They were scientists and physicians living and studying in ways not all that differently than our own, and their discoveries were being encoded into myth by the esteemed, committed poets among their aristocracy in much the same way that screenwriters and novelists work modern knowledge into their stories.

Makes sense and is very neat. I can likely replace the par2 splits with a single file using your tool.

Since your head is in the thick of this problem, I’d recommend you look at seqbox and consider implementing sbx headers and blocks as an optional container that would give you resilience to filesystem corruption. That way your tool would be an all in one bitrot safeguard and streaming/pipe based!

Regarding zbackup, it’s perhaps a bit obscure but extremely useful tool for managing data. The way I use it I’m able to get both dedup and lazy incremental backups, although with a computational cost, but not so significant. The encryption is a nice side effect of its implementation that is also handy.

We killed off a very large percentage of wild bees with pesticides and land “development” and keep one subspecies in artificial colonies and harvest their most prized outputs while controlling their rate of reproduction and even their queens. We also mass murder colonies when they are in any way inconvenient to a single human.

If anyone hopes AI will treat people like we do other species they’re not thinking very hard. What’s the best case - dogs? They have basically no freedoms and we breed them for whatever funny qualities someone thinks might be amusing. A pack of wild/free dogs will be rounded up and killed if it inconveniences a single human

I value how useful I am to the world far more highly than how profitable I am to my employer. The primary reason I love open source is that it maximises how useful my work can be to others.

An important secondary consideration is paying it forward.
Prices dont reflect utility they reflect supply and demand. High price can mean high demand, or low supply. Crypto currencies are designed to artificially constrain supply specifically to maintain a stable price because they want to be a currency. AI works in the opposite manner -- its a race to drive demand by providing more utility or lower prices.
Ask HN: How to identify value and how to create one?
Recently, I've been meaning to do some valuable tasks. What seems valuable to me is never valuable to others. As a result, I end up not doing anything. How can I do something meaningful? Pretty lost after LLMs and GenAI. All the value I could provide is equivalent to what these models do. So I am really trying to find something meaningful and inspiring. Please feel free to suggest as you wish.

> The way it is implemented now the App Store wouldn’t be fully independent anyways and still bound to review processes.

This is entirely the point many people are up in arms about - the implementation is the problem, not the concept of alternate app stores as such.

There is nothing in most people's definition of a generic "app marketplace" that involves the steps Apple are demanding at present (stand by letter of credit for a million dollars etc).

If it was implemented fairly (and IMHO in the original spirit of the EU legislation), its pretty obvious what the advantages would be; being able to compete with Apple to offer lower fees and thus hopefully attract developers and sales.

Most outside observers with a reasonable understanding of the facts and a capacity for independent thought do not think this process is fair or implemented in the spirit of the legislation at all. Apple have made the process about as difficult as they could get away with while still appearing to follow the rules to secure their existing app store moat as best they could.
The Rust ecosystem is much more coherent than the C++ ecosystem, broadly speaking. Starting from cargo, which isn't perfect but is a fantastic tool.

As the main author of cargo-nextest, I'd challenge you to write a tool with a similar complexity and quality level in C++. I got so much leverage from being able to use the Rust ecosystem, including being able to port to new platforms with literally zero code changes. (Be sure to get the signal handling exactly right.)
This is great news. I believe in the possible utility of LSD without requiring professional/clinical supervision. I've used it at home quite a bit in the past and it's been extremely useful for processing emotions and trauma, as well as helping calm me down in general.

This article gives short shrift to the role the pharmaceutical industry played in making this life-changing treatment a reality. It barely mentions Vertex. Vertex is the biotech company that made the big bet on cystic fibrosis, a rare disease that most companies wouldn’t touch because of the small market and unknown biology made it too risky. They were the ones that believed in the science and developed multiple CF drugs and got them into the hands of patients. Here’s a 2019 STAT article that gives a fuller account of Vertex’s role:

https://www.statnews.com/2019/10/23/we-conquered-a-disease-h...
Sure. That's why Apple added the second condition.
Proper sandboxing and effective security permissions. Third party code is inherently still a black box, especially when the bulk of the would be attacker's code is running on a server and never goes through Apple's review process. There is no way to tell the difference between an app that uploads all of a user's contacts to do a one time search, and one that backhauls and stores all those contacts for later nefarious purposes. (I believe) Apple came up with a rule to directly prohibit mass uploads to address this specific thing, but the cat and mouse dynamic remains.

Ultimately users need to be able to deny apps permissions, based on what an app needs to do and how much a user wants to trust a company (by default, very little). Permissions need to be implemented such that apps are unaware they're being denied so they're unable to coerce users into enabling them. For example, "location access" needs to have the option of returning a virtual location that was set from a map.
For me it just comes down to it not being remotely worth the risk. I'm a father and I did half the midnight feedings and diaper changes (plus all of them when mother was traveling for work), and cosleeping would have definitely been more convenient. And maybe what you're saying is true, but if wrong (or just something else goes wrong), it's an unthinkable tragedy that would cost me my child. And that's a tragedy that many parents (and marriages) don't come back from.

I'll just be a little more tired and inconvenienced for a year, it's OK.

Sunehri Bagh Masjid hasn't been demolished: it's still there.

Also it appears you are confusing different cases.

It's going through the court system, as it should.

Hindu temples go through the cycle as well, and as I noted above, 4 Hindu temples neighboring the Akhondji Masjid were demolished as well.

Look, I won't deny that it sucks being Muslim in India, but not every act is explicitly done out of Islamophobia.

If I wanted to, I could say the same thing about Hindu Mandirs being demolished in Karachi's slum redevelopment program as well (not out of Hinduphobia)

Finally, I've never heard of "The Patriot" before. The primary newspapers in Delhi are The Tribune's Delhi Edition and The Hindustan Times, and it's been that way for over a century.
"In 2037 the patent will run out, and the generic price will likely be 90% less."

Unfortunately, that's not guaranteed to bring a price drop. Humira is a good example of that; it recently went generic but much of the savings went to higher rebates to pharmacy benefits managers.

> I also firmly believe that, in the future, everything will be connected via Dante

I'm yet to read the article but regarding this, Dante is a massive step forward and is currently dominating the market but I feel like we are significantly more likely to see something like AES67 disrupting the market that MADI currently hold than Dante. It does naturally help Dante's case that it has an AES67 compatible mode.
More often than not, with python and other dynamic languages, the main source of bugs is not knowing the type of the variable you're dealing right now or what it contains at this point. Setting up breakpoints can be troublesome especially if your IDE/editor is not the one launching your process (attaching to PID is often not trivial). Strongly typed language often obscures logic with verbose syntax, that's where a debugger comes in handy. Compiled languages often only have a single start point and a debugger is more useful than print statement.

Star dune: Scientists solve mystery behind Earth's largest desert sands
The end of citizen-soldiers, i.e., the end of the conscript military. That forces literally everything else.

The problem now - that no one wants to talk about - is that the gap between conscript-accessible "consumer" technology and current Pentagon wunderwaffe is growing distressingly thin. So, not surprisingly, people are starting to ask WHY a GPS chip costs as much as a house in Kansas.

Oh, I know, I know. "They got amazing stuff that's just, like, light-years beyond anything but they can't show YOU". Uh huh. Yeah, my dad knows kung fu, too.

For what it's worth, the end of conscription was a mistake. You don't want armed forces composed of 100% full timers, it's bad for your civilization, as a rule. Something like a mandatory youth civil service - say, three years in military, five years otherwise - would be a fantastic thing in today's post-ZIRP transition.
Even if you are fine with line of reasoning you should consider the situation where we find ourselves in some fututre predicament where we have a disease that can only be cured by something we would synthesise from a rare protein that has only ever been found in the tears of the lesser Peruvian Fruitbat but unfortunately it's extinct and that's pretty much that.

Even if you don't buy the argument that we are custodians of the earth and its natural resources for future generations, extinction is a one-way door[1] and it's really not possible to say that allowing an animal to become extinct would serve our interests because we can't see the future to know how this may harm us in the future.

You're just totally wrong on the facts.

Hamas is not an Israeli creation. I don't know where you're getting that. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Hamas#The_founding_...

Hamas was not "initially funded by Israel". References?

Support for violence and Hamas amongst Palestinians is not "my narrative". It's truth supported by numerous surveys. If you want to get some color go look for the YouTube channel that interviews Palestinians on the street on topical questions over the last decade or so.

Hamas enjoys broad support and would get re-elected, that's why we didn't see any elections after 2006, because the PA would have lost to Hamas. Also the attack of Hamas on Oct 7th has broad support and previous to Oct 7th support for the use of violence against Israel was similarly broad.

https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/palestinian-pol...

"The polls shows 57% of respondents in Gaza and 82% in the West Bank believe Hamas was correct in launching its October 7 onslaught, in which some 1,200 people in Israel, mostly civilians, were murdered and over 240 were taken hostage. A large majority believes Hamas’s claims that it acted to “defend” the Al Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem and win the release of Palestinian security prisoners. Only 10% say they believed Hamas has committed war crimes, with a large majority saying they did not see videos showing the terrorists committing atrocities."

https://apnews.com/article/hamas-middle-east-science-32095d8...

"The poll found that 53% of Palestinians believe Hamas is “most deserving of representing and leading the Palestinian people,” while only 14% prefer Abbas’ secular Fatah party." (2021)

https://www.npr.org/2023/12/21/1217758546/hamas-support-pale...

I can give you 100's of more surveys over the last decade. It might be true that Hamas' support today in Gaza is waning given the circumstances but probably rising in the west bank. Palestinians were celebrating Oct 7th.

Hamas is active in the West Bank. You're also wrong about that. In fact the previous war in Gaza was a result of Hamas actions from the West Bank: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2014_Gush_Etzion_kidnapping_an...

Anyways we are talking about Gaza, how did this get to the West Bank? Your statements about the west bank are also wrong. Israel demolishes houses of terrorists that murder Israeli civilians. That's pretty much the only "routinely destroys homes" I can think of. Israel doesn't arrest children and put them in inhuman(e?) detention camps, where do you get that stuff?

Israel isn't perfect by any means, but the bad guys in this story are the Palestinians. There's no excuse for things like suicide bombers blowing up busses, malls, and restaurants. There's no excuse of Oct 7th. They chose indiscriminate violence as their way of settling the conflict and refused any peaceful attempts to settle it. You're the one that needs to wake up and at the very least learn the facts of this conflict before you make up your mind. EDIT: Also no excuse to firing 10's of thousands of rockets and mortars into Israeli population centers. All these things are war crimes and crimes against humanity. Israel's actions as a whole are not.
