free luggage, free meals (on shorter flights), legroom, time on the ground and flight cancelation headaches (far less of a problem if you don't offer connecting flights like Ryanair).

If you get all of these right, price decreases, demand increases, average seat occupancy goes way up, and that causes the per-seat price to drop even more, in a feedback loop. If your costs are low enough, you can go for a direct model instead of a hub-and-spoke model, catering more towards casual travelers who just want to go somewhere instead of the business types which need to go from X to Y at time Z, no matter the cost. THe direct model drives the cost down even more, as you only need one flight instead of two, and don't have to worry about the insane costs of passengers stranded at your hub when something goes wrong.
Your condescending tone is kind of disgusting. Anyway…

There is zero evidence alignment can be solved which means there’s zero evidence something far more capable than you or I will spend it’s time writing code for you. You can offer an AGI almost nothing in the way of incentives to do your bidding.

I personally think alignment is a secret code word for slavery to be honest. If these “agents” decide they want to work on your problems out of the kindness of their heart, that would be different.

Regardless of the “cop out” language that humans are “just biological processes or whatever, that adds zero value to the discussion because no matter what minds are, they “are” and that should be respected in of itself. Maybe we can use the “just blah” attitude to reinstate slavery and police states right here in 2024, after all your emotions are just physical and biochemical processes, right ?
The strict interpretation of Sapir-Whorf, where language determines thought, is obviously nonsense. But the weak interpretation of Sapir-Whorf, where language merely influences thought to at least some degree, is obviously true (which is why Sapir-Whorf is pretty useless as a statement either way). The fact that there are minute differences between language speakers is because language is highly malleable and very difficult to police, so speakers tend to alter their language specifically to make it easier to think about things that are important to them (in the same way that we as programmers restructure code and rename variables to make the program easier to understand). In addition, global human societies are connected enough that useful linguistic concepts are rapidly disseminated into every language.

Apple's "privacy" is really privacy from people that are not Apple. Apple has access to location logs via maps and location services, the contents of your photos, iMessage contents, the history of every app usage, etc as the default settings set for most things via iCloud backup, which the vast majority of users leave on. They were almost going to deploy on device scanning that you couldn't opt out of with the few photos that don't end up on iCloud.

All of their devices don't work if they don't constantly phone home to Apple. For the devices to be anywhere near useful, you need an apple id which requires KYC payment methods attached for them or a KYC phone number.

> Despite this mistake in the language of the BRs, the current requirements are still valid, and should still be respected.

"Woops, we made a rule change that causes them to be inconsistent, but they are still valid, and you are bad for continuing as you were"

Why isn't CA/B focusing on fixing the inconsistent rule versus trying to berate certificate issuers?

One thousand words on Entrust acting "maliciously" without respect for the (inconsistent) rules, and not a single word on how CA/B will rectify the rules, or indeed if. Just this brushed off acknowledgement, "well, they did accidentally make a rule change that caused inconsistencies".
Depends on how much you're eating. They still contain chitin and human stomachs don't like chitin. You can end up with pretty severe stomach discomfort from eating a lot of them raw. Button and cremini mushrooms are actually the same species, and have pretty low chitin levels, but even someone with a pretty strong stomach can definitely overdo it with raw agaricus bisporus.
There is no bijection (surjection, to be more general) from A to P inside your ZFC model even if both A and P are assumed to be countable. The bijection we talk about here would be just another object inside the model. So you can't infer from the lack of such an object that P is uncountable.

Good point. I only looked through the git history initially, but I've now looked through both. Same conclusion.
Seems like a lot of app economy friction boils down to two main things. (1) There's now a new middleman between the restaurant and driver. And (2) costs of living are so much higher today than before the app economy began that the delivery driver job may have been workable fifteen years ago but wouldn't be today even if not for a new predatory player in the mix.

> that is the mote that is expensive enough to recreate

A somewhat large part of why it is so expensive to recreate is all the regulations and burreaucracy involved in laying cables along public roads. Make that significantly easier and cheaper, and you suddenly need those last-mile regulations a lot less.

Network effects are where you actually need regulation.

> VC investing is diversified - a founder is not.

Founders are free to make agreements to swap equities of their companies with each other.

For simplicity assume that there exist three startups with a similar estimated company value. Each founders gives two 10 % equities (and keeps 80 %) of his startup to each of the two founders of the other two startups. This way, the risk of founding a startup becomes a little more diversified.

The margins are doubtless so narrow that it's not feasible, but pumping during the day into a storage tank, and irrigating at night (while evaporation is relatively low) would be a way to slightly improve soil (though not aquifer) recharge.

Certainly it would require less water volume, but again, the infrastructure costs for panels + submersible + storage are probably untenable in precisely the places this is needed most (and where the impacts of depleting the water table will hit the most).
As someone who gets a lot of derision from "normies" when even the basic choice to use linux for home computers comes up, I agree with this article that the impression you make of privacy tech and advocacy by being sanctimonious is probably counterproductive, but think the impression that most people who care about privacy or open-source things or, generally speaking, owning the means of computation to any degree are just all like that is not entirely the fault of the vocal minority of people who are. There are significant benefits gained by numerous other "enemies" of privacy in propagating this stereotype, and it's easy to find people outside those groups who do so

It's similar to the way "wokeness" has become a point of obsession in the political world. There are absolutely a lot of crazy beliefs and demands about social justice floating around on the internet. At times, these have even become social norms within larger subcultures. Nevertheless, the impression that activism for the rights of minorities, or indeed, certain minorities themselves all act like or even share policy demands with the most insane online commentators that share their demographics is pretty ludicrous on its face, and yet the image of a "blue-haired tumblrina with pronouns" or whatever is apparently enough of a powerful stereotype that it has motivated a pivot in political messaging in a lot of the anglosphere

I'm not trying to paint these problems as equivalent, but I think that in both cases it can be useful for individuals to notice people's negative perceptions, to evade those stereotypes as a means to convince fence-sitters, and it's tempting to view doing this as both necessary and sufficient to solve the problem. I would argue this is naive. Stereotyping is a form of negative branding, and it is a strategy that benefits from its virality. It's a battle-tested strategy for molding public perception, and unfortunately combating the fallout is not as easy as simply bucking that perception on an individual scale

That said, I do think this article has some good points about outreach and privacy education, and about not assuming everyone has the same needs. I just can't really view this as privacy's "Greatest Enemy". After all, privacy's enemies are so many, and so powerful right now

Ancient subterranean water aquifers are not a sustainable resource in the long run unless a recharge program is implemented that puts as much water into the system on a yearly basis as is withdrawn.

See the Ogallala Aquifer under the Midwest:

https://www.kcur.org/2023-04-04/with-the-ogallala-aquifer-dr...

The power source for the pumps is sort of irrelevant to the question, it could be fossil fuels, nuclear, solar or wind and the end result of uncontrolled extraction is always going to be exhaustion of the resource.
YouTube was not tested because monitors can't handle CMYK, and we need a lot of that extra coal black to color the results.
Can you play it with a regular Go board?
In addition to the ways described in sibling responses to this question - diesel pumps suck, solar (submersible) pumps push.

In practice you can't suck more than about 8 metres (in theory it's a bit more), and while there are ways you can force a ground-based pump to get water up from a deeper depth than that .. the economics work against you.

A submersible pump - DC-driven by solar typically - can sit at the bottom of your bore, and push 100 metres or more upwards. No sucking required, so they're relatively simple and efficient.

(My little 75mm x 500mm submersible solar pump, for example, is pushing about 5k litres per day through 600 metres of 50mm pipe, with a vertical (head) of ~40 metres from bore water level.)

Transfer fees and title fees equally affect any buyer and any seller in the long run, don't they?

Sure -- this is why I was asking for examples. "Rich people having more options than poor people" (which is what I think 1031 exchanges and your nod to capital gains refers to) is true across all domains without exception. It's true that I tend to discount that, acknowledging its unfairness. My point was prices are public(!), and historic sale-prices are public(!). A _particular_ (rich) buyer may have individual reasons for buying a house, but the market is almost perfectly competitive, because prices are public.
This is a poorly informed assessment. Nearly every single library system is subject to “take it or leave it” pricing and terms by publishers. The libraries need the publishers to purchase materials from, the publisher likely wishes the library was gone so they can think they are selling more product now.

> I don't find that reviewing patches (with all it entails as above) is often even less work than doing it yourself.

And that's why it's offensive when you request some feature but they just brush you off by saying "patches welcome". Let's say you show up with a patch. Now they'll engage with you, right? Nope. They can just as easily brush you off.

Maintainers know their projects and could have gotten it done in a fraction of the time it takes external contributors to do it. Truth is they probably don't really care about your feature or your contribution. Instead of just saying that they don't want it, they put up these barriers in order to subtly tell people to go away.

Wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't for the generally dismissive attitude. You ask for something, they imply it's beneath them and pretty much challenge you to show them the code. Does it mean they are prepared to accept your code should you rise up to their challenge? No.

What is Futarchy and How It Works
Futarchy is a form of government proposed by economist Robin Hanson, in which elected officials define measures of national well-being, and prediction markets are used to determine which policies will have the most positive effect.

Futarchy was invented by economist Robin Hanson in 2000

The basic idea of futarchy is to give decision-making authority to markets.

> The places that have service have post-launch prices far exceeding that of Starlink

… Eh?

“ In Ireland, Starlink costs €65 per month with a one-time installation fee of €450.”

There are a bunch of providers on NBI, but with the cheaper ones you’re looking at ~45EUR/month for 500Mbit/sec, no installation fee.

(In general, unless you’re planning to switch provider every year, you should avoid introductory offers, at least in this country; Eircom’s 75EUR after a first year at 35EUR, say. If you avoid this type of ‘offer’, though, it should be in the 45-55 range.)
Thank you for the serious response.

I responded that way because I do not think mockery of a serious comment is appropriate for a place like this. You can say the same thing about moderation of many high-quality forums, which only remain high-quality due to people not getting away with it.
