its actually another cable pair where some are connected and some are not. so i can use one wire for that. Its a telephone cable, so i wont be able to push high amps or current through, but yes, i can connect aome generator on our end and use an antenna, i know where the end terminates but incan not access it (its behind a wall plate with a key). someone already gave the hint with a fluke intellitone, which has the abillity to use the sensor as antenna, but i dont know the detection range (i probably need a.few.meters, but it has not to be milimeter accurate)

i can not open the cable in between, its not ours, i just want to use it on howto find out where and how it is layed
I don't think that's true, especially for complex command-line tools.

Reading the manual, especially when it's well written, can help you understand why design decisions were made with the tool. We're not talking about a simple tool without safeguards. We're talking about a complex tool with a lot of interacting pieces.

You do read the manual on that airliner as a pilot because it's your job to know the systems of the airliner. You do read the manual on the sonar system in the submarine, because it's your job as a sonar operator to know the system.

I dislike the shiny-plastic-button mindset that seems to infect everything these days. Professional tools tend to be more flexible and more complex than consumer tools, because professionals often need to do more, and get more out of those tools. Git is not Dropbox or WinZip. It has a far more complex function. If you have to read the manual to get full use from a tool, that's not losing, that's learning. It's part of the job.

And yes, I have read the Git manual.

I'd like to elaborate on the "fancier type system". It's not all academic. There are obvious practical advantages:

- No more bugs where a value that shouldn't be mutated is accidentally mutated in another place.

- No more bugs with writing to a closed channel or file.

- No more bugs with forgetting to close a file.

- No more null pointer errors at runtime.

- No more runtime reflection errors.

Compared to Go, safe Rust provides all these benefits and more.

Almost universally lottery proceeds displace tax spending. For example, in my jurisdiction lottery proceeds go to education. That lets the government spend less money on education and more on the boondoggle of the day.

> Classic instance of the sunken cost fallacy fallacy (not a typo). They prefer to cut their losses and forget about how much they spent recruiting those people.

The Sunken cost fallacy would be to retain those people because of the costs irrevocably incurred (sunk) recruiting them, employing them to date, etc. Apple are (apparently following a theoretical economics position) considering the prospective costs going forward of keeping them, when they no longer have an obvious future revenue stream, and would still generate additional redeployment/retraining costs

For telco at least, some countries have exactly that and unfortunately it does not run more efficiently and centralizes potential content control. Innovation comes from competition, and privatization keeps content more freely flowing. If we can solve those two while centralizing that would be amazing but maybe unrealistic with current policy.

`Despite the widespread harm caused by cars and automobility, governments, corporations, and individuals continue to facilitate it by expanding roads, manufacturing larger vehicles, and subsidising parking, electric cars, and resource extraction. This literature review synthesises the negative consequences of automobility, or car harm, which we have grouped into four categories: violence, ill health, social injustice, and environmental damage.`

I don't think the public should continue to fund such one-sided research through government grants. Yes, cars cause harms, but they also bring enormous benefits in freedom and mobility.
Universal broadband access is a governmental program supported by Democrats to give Internet access to Republicans. Hard-nosed politics would suggest the program should not have a bright future. States can deal with this problem, or not, as they choose.

The original(?) +972 article was also on HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39918245

It was an excellent and detailed piece on the various systems, and their use by Israel in the Gaza conflict.

>> In an unprecedented move, according to two of the sources, the army also decided during the first weeks of the war that, for every junior Hamas operative that Lavender marked, it was permissible to kill up to 15 or 20 civilians; in the past, the military did not authorize any “collateral damage” during assassinations of low-ranking militants.

Needs no comment and basically sums up the war.
Do you think there's more value in combining 2 heterogenous systems (like openbsd up front, linux behind) than using one 'more secure' system throughout? I feel like the number of critical issues that have faced two systems at once is far fewer than a single system.

Also I think it shows value in having independent implementations of standards. If you have 5x different xz tools or C compilers or Javascript engines, the threat is chopped in half, plus you can easily compare reference outputs between them (RE: on trusting trust)

Other than games, anyone have good examples of real time multi user apps?

Even with things like docs and sheets, though the capability is there, I find myself rarely editing in real time with others.
It is true that simulations produce results which may not reflect the underlying system if the simplifications and fudge factors are incorrect. Thus fiddling with parameters is part of the process.

In the example I gave of searching for zeolite catalysts, the simulations were just used to identify candidates for labs to study. I don't remember the exact numbers, but I think it brought the list of candidates down from hundreds to less than 10. The majority of these candidates were at least somewhat effective. Unless we believe that pretty much all of those hundred candidates would have been effective, then the advanced calculations were doing some work.

The question is, is all that work actually just done because of parameter twiddling? I don't think so. Consider that neural networks are often used lately in order to provide computationally simpler models of various physical phenomena. They can do a somewhat better job if fed with a lot of real data, but they use at least thousands of times more parameters than the simple quantum physics calcs with fudge factors. Thus I think it is safe to say that the structure of the quantum physics calcs does meaningfully model some part of reality. (Unless, as xvector points out, our memories are being continuously overwritten to make reality seem consistent)

It's also good to note that the fudge factors (read: parameters) and quantization are done because it would be too computationally difficult to model the parts of the system modeled by fudge factors for systems with a useful amount of atoms in them, and we just don't know how to compute ODEs for complex systems in continuous time and space. In simple systems, (e.g. 2 photons interacting) analytical solutions for ODEs can be found, no fudge factors are needed for computation, and the computed results match the experimental results to within measurement error.
They have. They now delete accounts for inactivity.
Seconded.

As a game designer, you want to add silly and suboptimal things to your game. Don't fall into the trap of thinking that every decision must be perfectly balanced and equally weighty, because your game will turn out bland and textureless. And beyond the considerations of "optimal" play, putting suboptimal options into your game can serve as both a way of naturally selecting difficulty without having to implement ungainly difficulty sliders, and also accommodate fun/silly challenges for people who just want to mess around.
I do not dispute that it made sense during early days of UNIX. But today we write system software for these operating systems in many languages other than C. Maybe it's time to reconsider the dominant libc position instead of reinforcing it further?

Linux has successfully paved the way and demonstrated its practicality. Yes, it made certain unfortunate mistakes along the way, but OpenBSD (or any other OS) can learn from those and provide a better solution.

Well, this is a different rabbithole than I would have expected to go down, but why not? I have no idea of the Catholic experience outside the US and if that image means anything to them.

I can get into my personal feelings if it matters; I don't think they matter much to anyone except me. The quick summary is that I dug the grave of a great-great Aunt of mine by hand at a small cemetery attached to the Catholic church in the tiny, forgettable town she was born in. One quirk of this rural, very white (I assume the entire population is a fairly close cousin of one type or another to me), Catholic town is that the priest is an African immigrant. My aunt was quite racist and so I thought it was a sort of ironic that the last group of people who saw her out of this world were twenty-five percent black.

So an AI-generated image of a black pope made me stop and think for a minute about what Catholic identity means; a concept that as someone who was raised in that tradition but is unable to myself believe in the divine has always been problematic. Basically, it was good art, though I don't think that was the intent of the corporation that created it.

I don't expect a hospital providing free care to replace parents' lost earnings too.

'While families may not receive a bill from St. Jude, the hospital doesn’t cover what’s usually the biggest source of financial stress associated with childhood cancer: the loss of income as parents quit or take leave from jobs to be with their child during treatment. For many families, the consequence is missed payments for cars, utilities and cellphones. Others face eviction or foreclosure because they can’t keep up with rent and mortgage payments.

Parents at St. Jude have exhausted savings and retirement accounts, borrowed from family and friends or asked other charities for aid. ProPublica identified more than 100 St. Jude families seeking financial help through the online fundraiser GoFundMe, with half of the campaigns started in the past two years. We counted scores of other events like concerts and yard sales organized to help St. Jude families in need.'
Yea, I agree. Part of the reason I used "episodic" as a category was to uninstall 100% of my episodic apps and only reinstall when/if needed.
It may be that the old violins are preferred as tools because they somehow help the player achieve the same (optimal for their skill level?) sound, more easily and consistently.

Think of a car that is less effortful to drive. From external appearances, the same driving is happening either way. But inside, the “worse” car has a lot of compensating on the part of the driver, while the “better” car does not.
That's terrifying, I hate where this is all headed. I still hope that the people that ordered it setup and those that had it developed would be held accountable (I know, pipe dream).

> it's horrifying and categorically unethical to use them to decide who to kill.

Absolute statements are hard. I mean, I agree with the sentiment, but I can't get behind such a strong statement.

If you have a 10 person group deciding who to kill, and reduce their workload with AI so that the 10 person group can take more time double checking-- that's "using AI to decide who to kill" but probably improves outcomes.

The problem is, in practice, we know that people are just going to punt responsibility to the machine and shrug.

They are not doing the same as America are they? They are not perfect but it just depends who you trust as a source in this war. All the stats either come from Hamas or IDF. People choose to believe the Hamas statistics all day and take a blind eye to what IDF is doing. Also big contrast is they are defending themselves. Im not talking only about Oct 7. Even before that Hamas sent bombs for many years before that. Imagine going to work and seeing bombs above ur head and all the world saying it is what it is you can’t attack them back or do anything about it.
Perhaps whichever HR department in the IDF covers publishing books has a checklist that says "serving members cannot publish books about intelligence operations under their own name", but no one who actually enforces an anonymization policy.
It doesn't really matter if his identity gets leaked, when you are a director, you always become more visible no matter what you do. You cannot hide if you are a director.

In military matters, high ranking officers don't protect their identity, because they represent the military.

Although it is obviously true that lower and medium ranking soldiers and personnel ALWAYS need to protect their identity, because they should not be identified since they are the ones who carry orders and take the real risks.

Of course it would have been better for him to not have his identity disclosed, since it would expose him to assassins if he would travel, but honestly this is a non-story, this will just generate hate comments in anti-israel crowds.

Adjacent for some time to those participating in the secret squirrel pantomime, I find this all so terribly tiresome.

It’s not.

Specific instances of killing innocent people where a number of factors are met is against international law.

Innocent people inevitably die in war. That’s why the world so desperately wants to avoid it.

But international law acknowledges that even if a actor does everything right, innocent people will die.
