Stability AI's Bad Breakup with Coatue and Lightspeed Venture
The thing about a congestion tax is that if it’s effective at getting drivers to mode shift to transit, it also makes things better for drivers who do continue to drive, since they deal with less traffic. If a large group of people is excepted from the fee, they may start to mode shift in the reverse direction because they get the benefit without the cost.
>putting a sdr 5G cell.

That sounds super illegal because the spectrum 5G operates on requires a license to use. You can partner with cell carriers to use their licenses, but why would they partner with you? They'll be quite happy to use their existing infrastructure and hoard the data for themselves.

Isn't the 12% in line with the inflation and the rise in their costs since the last time they updated prices?
Incentives are themselves powerful, whether explicit and overt or covert and/or incidental, so that's a fair gripe.

Note too that it's not the question of whether or not KFF is or isn't biased, toward or away from, Kaiser Permanente or any of the health system's other arms and branches. (Kaiser operates in several states, I'm not sure whether or not those are independent entities, and the physician, hospital, and healthcare insurance functions are also, so far as I'm aware, at least somewhat autonomous.)

Rather it was pursing the extremely weak rhetorical tactic of 1) assuming or implying that the entities are the same and 2) that a bias does exist. I'd not known the answer to either of those questions prior to seeing your original upstream comment, but it took less than a minute to answer both questions. Again, the spirit of HN is for substantive discussion, not casual meme-slinging. Not always attained by any stretch, but the site would be much better for it.

It's not infrequent that I'll begin posting one argument here, research my points (even only casually), and ... substantively change my mind in the process. That's one of the chief values of online discussion IMO. And a good day is one in which I've learned something, so given my admission above, this was two good days, thanks.

The only real solution to these problems (congestion, lack of parking, etc.) is to build (roads, bridges, flyovers, buildings, car parks, skyscrapers) like mad. But it seems most western countries have forgotten how to do that.
Thanks for the confirmation, and interesting experience. What was the application if you don't mind?
This is unfortunately the case for many books on human behavior. Sure, Dan Ariely comes to mind, but the field itself is very tricky.

I don't think we - people used to STEM - appreciate how difficult behavioral psychology is. In STEM, we are used to isolating experiments down, so there are as few variables as possible. And we are used to well-designed experiments being reproducible if everyone does what they are supposed to do right.

In the study of human behavior there are always countless uncontrollable variables, every human is a bit different and it is very difficult to discover something that would apply generally. Also, pretty much all of the research is done on western population of European descent.

This is why I take all behavioral claims with a large grain of salt, but I still have respect for the researchers doing their best in the field.
There are entire languages built with unchecked exceptions, Python, Ruby, Nodejs and most recent ones. Even with checked exceptions you can write code and miss to throw or declare an exception somewhere so ultimately the developer has to deal with exceptions somehow.
True. Though until recently, children were usually allowed some adult-level duties and responsibilities before their early 20s, so they could actually grow up. My mother did all the cooking for a family of 6, on a wood stove, before she was 12 years old. In an era (and economic circumstances) when "we need more bread" meant "check that there is enough flour in the bin, and get some water from the well...".

I installed EndeavourOS on my wife's Lenovo.

Generally I am happy with it, however the upgrade to Plasma 6 was not without hitch. There was some incompatibility of the Breeze theme which caused a login loop.

William Feller: An introduction to Probability Theory and Its Applications Volumes 1 and 2 - Volume 1 is considered the "classic" in most math undergrad courses, Volume 2 is for masters level students.

Billingsley Probability and Measure - For more advanced probability you need to know measure theory, this is a book dedicated to that.

Karlin + Taylor - First (and Second) Course in Stochastic Processes - If you are interested in learning Ito calculus/stochastics those 2 books are pretty good.

These books have some overlap between themselves but are pretty complementary overall. I would say Feller Volume 1 up to Chapter 11 is decent for non-math people, beyond that you need to be serious about learning.

Didn't put any statistics books as that's a whole different topic.

Egypt violated almost every signed treaty.

Sinai was supposed to be a demilitarized zone, slowly it was filled with the Egyptian army. Egypt built multiple tunnels under the Suetz canal.

Yet our governments and military still trying to appease them, in the same way as they did to Hamas.

And how do you think all these advanced weapons (RPGs, anti-tank missiles, thermal bombs, etc.) got into 'azza[1]? How did their terrorists go to train in Iran?

Why do you think Egypt opposes an Israeli presence on the border in Raphiakh[2]?

I guess since forwards rendering doesn't need a proper texture cache, you could used the savings to implement a write combining buffer.

The amount of cars in Manhattan also makes walking (which is usually also involved in a transit journey) much worse than it needs to be. I saw this video posted yesterday: https://x.com/philwalkable/status/1773167820487962703?s=46

Depends on country, and how contactless cards being the norm in many places meant there was less push among people for payment with phones, compared to USA where it seems it no modern bits for card payments happened between introduction of magnetic strip and phone-based EMV2 NFC payments.

I remember changing card ~2012, in Poland, because my ancient Visa Electron with magstripe-only was confusing to new cashiers who thought lack of chip meant it's contactless. Around that time phone-based "cards" were also widely promoted though the tech wasn't exactly ready yet so you needed cooperation between banks and telcos to provide secure element.

Ask HN: Global Registry of Workforce?
As a job seeker, you potentially have over 10 job portals at your disposal. However, updating each of them individually to reflect career advancements can be exceedingly time-consuming and difficult to manage.

On the other hand, as an employer, it is of utmost importance to maintain an up-to-date and private record of each employee.

Taking into consideration both perspectives, there is an urgent necessity for an integrative employee registry. Such a registry would maintain global workforce records along with their chronology of updates. The records could be retrieved and interpreted through a standardised protocol.

What I really love about Rusts pattern matching is how well it integrates with the type system.

match user {
ImportUser{id, account: {AccountData: email, ..}, ..
} => println({id}: {Some(email)}),
_ => println("Not an ImportUser or has no mail")
}

Of course this specific case could also be written with `if let`, but imagine how long this specific case would have been using the traditional conditionals.

But my opinion is the opposite: maybe there are some rotten pieces in the otherwise delicious meal.

But that might be a transient state, the future is long (or so I hope).

That's true.

But worth saying that Israel's government thinks it can achieve the goal of destroying Hamas, and even if not, it is possible that when the war was launched, it did think it could be achieved (and e.g. underestimated Hamas).

Also, we use "achievable" here as if it's one dimensional, but it's not - the question is actually "achievable at what cost", where the cost is in Palestinian civilian lives lost and the population displaced, in IDF soldier's lives, and in disruption of the Israeli economy.

> A better fix would be to just make transit more attractive, not make driving less attractive.

It is clearly not fiscally better, and its probably not better in terms of speed of induced behavior change. The best mix is probably some of both; make transit better and make driving more expensive so that people who have preconceptions about transit nevertheless feel that the absolute cost of driving (not the cost delta of driving vs. transit) is sufficient that it is not worth the trip without taking transit despite their prejudgement against it.
I was given a coral USB by a friend, and it is handling detection for 6 cameras without issues on frigate.

I have configured the cameras (had to go through an activX on IE6 via a MS Windows VM, yay) to serve two streams. 480x360 5fps for the AI detection, and 2592x1944 25fps for recording.

Only the low quality stream is decoded on the computer, for a very light load.
> What makes Apple Pay significantly more secure in practice is that issuers can limit the device-specific card number to be only usable with a chip cryptogram, and not e.g. by manually typing it in on a website.

That's sort of true for non 3DS enabled cards. For 3DS enabled cards, you need a second factor for most transactions on the internet.
The case at the beginning, where we know our pattern is irrefutable but the compiler doesn't (let (x, 2) = (1, 1+1)) ,is something the compiler could easily prove (as long as the irrefutably could be proven locally as it is here). At first, I struggled to think of why that capability would ever be helpful. In the end, though, I came up with this example, which can (and does) come up:

fn infallible() -> Result<u8, !>{
Ok(1)
}

fn match_infallible(){
let Ok(x) = infallible();
}

The compiler here knows the `infallible` function will always return an `Ok` because of the return type. Here you could just `unwrap` the result, but what if it was inside a tuple, or something similar?
That sounds like critical understanding failure on what DMA is about, what law is about, what EU is and is about.
Look around you. I'm sure someone making 400k/yr has been to a restuarant / bar in the last week, after all they're pretty well off. How do these people that are making less than 50k per year, many also probably going to school, renting houses owned by people with 400k/yr salary, get by if even the people with 400k/yr "can't"?

You must realize even the people I'm describing here are also actually in the top % of the world, and the extra taxes any government would ask of you would barely even help them. There's about 5-10 rungs below the poor people I'm describing that need desprate help. And the idea of someone losing 30k in taxes a year because they have to own a 2 million dollar home instead of a 3 million dollar home is so absurd to the person deciding between school books for their kid or an extra 1 lb of protein for a decent meal.
I see a lot of comments here focused on their individual experiences and opinions, which is fine. But on those comments I see a lot of people saying they won't have kids. Which individually is their choice, but collectively, combined with people who do have kids have them older which can lead to fertility issues when they want to have them, combined with the increase in the number of people who is LGBTQ+ which again it's their choice and nothing wrong with that individually, but as a species we can see how these factors combined, and other factors, are the cause of drop in number of children born in all countries. I recently read that in Japan there are more adult diapers sold than baby diapers because of drop in births and increase of aging population. This seems to be driving us to extinction as a species, just food for thought.

It is now practically forbidden to criticize anything related with ADHD.

After reading all the literature I concluded there were huge problems with almost every aspect of it. Then you go try to tell people and you are tarred and feathered.

Then look at incentives: on one side is: "a citizen concerned that maybe taking stimulant meds is going to cause greater problems" vs "drug companies and psych industry making huge money from increasing lifetime prescriptions of stimulants".

The people on the "hang on a minute" side of things are concerned about health and safety of society. They stand to make ZERO money from raising the alarm. On the other side its billions of dollars.

> "$DATE" was meant to imply "$DAY $TIME $ZONE."

I'm curious, what does the "number of milliseconds since" do, then? If it's about intervals, and it has some human connection, you're still in political land (and not only on the client) if you do something like: 3am, 1 month from today 3am.
Well I think that really depends on what exact "peace process" you're referring to. Hamas started terror attacks during the Oslo process IIRC, and intensified terror attacks before the elections after Rabin's assassination, probably helping get Netanyahu elected. And there were peace proposals in 2000, but also in 2007.

But really what I meant wasn't that any specific peace process was ended, more that the Israeli pro-peace left lost a lot of political power and a lot of legitimacy because of the continued terror attacks. When the left pushes for disengaging from the West Bank, the right points to the disengagement from Gaza as a case study, and it's kind of hard to argue against.
This is, fortunately, not my experience. In all of my jobs, the most highly regarded people, including by management, were/are those who have an informed opinion and are confident enough to voice it, and potentially take responsibilities outside of their job description in order to steer the business in the direction they are convinced is the right one. Note that this handful persons I am referring to _also_ accept criticism and correct their understanding when new information ia given to them: they are not dogmatic jerks. Actually, all my managers were this kind of person, with crazy ideas and not affraid to disagree with anyone.

I also had one colleague who was brilliant and had strong opinions about the product, which were expensive and demanding, and was affected by a lay off wave. I think him being original, not "focusing on the core product", and a strong character had something to do with it, so of course it happens.
