True. I hope to change that and push it back in the other direction. We don't have rich authoring as first class citizen on the web, and it leads to the consumption apocalypse you describe.

That's one reason I built BrowserBox because I saw it as a way to deliver 'creation focused' activities in the Browser, and extend the experience from consumption to more. All i wanted to do at first was use it as a layer to deliver web scraping script building with a nice UI, without having to go through a walled garden of Chrome extension or download another application.

Its potential is much more tho.
Because of the little gains and large additional effort required in exchange.

rpm/apt are quite involved to package and the tooling is (at least compared to OCI) limited. They would provide little advantage over OCI which works on any packaging system and even OS. They don't enjoy the ecosystem advantages of OCI, despite their age.

In summary, it could be doable, but it would require much more additional effort than packaging in OCI first.

But sure, since it can be done, maybe someone wants to take on it. I won't be down for the job myself ;)
Heated water is not returned directly to the lake in the Enwave system. It forms part of the city's normal municipal drinking water supply: treated and sent to a pumping station for distribution.

That's called "Nuremberg defense". It didn't work great in the past.
I see that you exclude Azure. Are you dead set against Microsoft? I’m not a customer but my spouse is and she tells me that they definitely support GDPR/EU-only data centres. They’re used in this way by more than one EU civil service.
Yes, you misunderstand. It's ironic, but it's a well known irony, that being outwardly transactional about a relationship can be a losing strategy. (Example: bringing a gift to a cocktail party versus giving the host the cash value of that gift.)

Loyalty shouldn't be freely given. But it's not particularly hard to spot the overly transactional types, and it also shouldn't surprise anyone that while those tactics work for a while, they cliff out before leadership. Again, that cliff is well within the range of a really good salary. But it's a cliff nonetheless.
Probably. This probably is part of their checks against spam. The rules they apply are random at best.some want technical solutions, others want an valid postal address on the domain that can be read by anyone.

Yes. That's terrible. It also proves that they are not interested in the accuracy of their precious military software. They can't make it more accurate without feedback. So the accurancy is not the goal. The goal is to have an excuse for the killing.
Cargo absolutely uses git, or else we wouldn't've had that thing where setting it to use the cli git instead of some reimplementation lead to massive speedups
Obviously we cannot know whether this was a deliberate action.

Nevertheless, their arguments for it being a deliberate action are strong, i.e. that they had communicated previously with IDF, who knew precisely their planned movements and that they had markings that should have prevented any confusion from aerial view.

Based on that, I do not see how they could have used other words. It certainly cannot be characterized as an involuntary accident.

It does not seem plausible that the strike against them has been decided at a high level, but if there was some rogue unit acting on their own without caring about rules of engagement that still is not acceptable for the IDF.
Yes. I suppose it was inevitable that the concentration of capital required to build the net would make it likely the net would be reduced, to a time, for a way to exploit/extract/recoup the cost of building it.

I think it might be different in future as the ways of interacting get richer. At least I hope so!

Sometimes I think it's such a shame that mainstream "content creators" are limited to:

- 140 characters

- FB posts

- YT shorts

People feel they have such huge creative outlets, and in a way they do! But in another way those messages/mediums are quite limited. Hopefully the ability to create rich experiences becomes more evenly distributed in future.

But maybe tech is only part of the reason it's not. Perhaps it really is like the 90-9-1 rule. 90% just consume, 9% comment, 1% create? Is this a true universal law governing humanity, or just want the "social media" (people are products) companies want to gaslight us into believing about our limited potential, because it makes us better products???

Hahah! :)

In Sweden they sell bucketloads of saffron for basically a euro or two per pack. The equivalent in UK stores would have a 10x markup at least. It seems like an industry that somebody could easily capitalize on, unless there is some trade or monopoly restrictions we don’t know about.
The word privacy means so many different things to different people it is hard to discuss about it without first defining it.

The word "privacy" in modern sense has been twisted to mean anonymous. So any data collection in absolute terms is an invasion of Privacy. Hence the confusion.

The word "privacy" in Apple sense was that only they can collect information about you. But not any other third party without permissions. And those permission are guided by both user interest and obviously their business interest.

The word "privacy" where data collected about you are randomised and profiled you to certain category of interest will be an invasion of privacy depending on which company is doing it. For Google with their replacement of Cookies it is absolutely wrong. For Apple they are protecting their customer.

To be absolutely honest, you cannot be for real to expect an undergraduate or even someone in the second/final year of their masters degree to join the firm and hit the ground running or even compare them with your full time experienced employees who have most probably had years of experience under their belts.

It seems that what you needs is a team of fully trained, highly educated robots.

I managed the interships and volunteers for a UK national charity.

How do students and trainees compare to full time staff? Clearly they are students and trainees usually with no onsite experience, so in my experince many years behind your full time staff experience.

Do they produce quality work in the first few months? Depends on the intern and whether or not you set them up to fail and what the meaning of quality work means.

Interns only have an academic experience of their chosen field not an onsite profit driven or anxiety provoking environment.

It takes time for interns to blossom
> You’re not going to develop someone for leadership with that attitude.

Most people will self-develop anyway, and at some point you'll need somebody to fill that leadership position anyway.

It's hard to fund things where the benefit is diffused among many people. Lighthouses are a classic example of this (you can enjoy their benefit even if you don't pay!). So is public art (why should I pay for public sculptures for everybody else?).

Taxes are a traditional approach to this. It's sloppy and imperfect (plenty of my money is spent on stuff I don't value), but I don't know a much better way.

Similarly, it's hard to price things where the negative externalities are diffused among many people. Pollution is a good example of this - the person generating pollution is often not the one suffering the effects of it, and the effects are generally widespread and diffuse (your car makes a thousand people a little bit worse off, not a single person horribly worse off). Taxes on these externalities are also an appropriate tool here.
okay, so where are the steps?
Lab grown meat has never been sold in Singapore supermarkets. There was one (1) restaurant that offered like 10 portions a week as a publicity stunt, and they recently went belly up because funding ran out and the business just doesn't scale.

Focal: Understand complex research at light speed with AI
I'm excited to introduce Focal, a product that is here to help navigating the vast amount of information in our work and studies. We felt the pain from our own personal need to manage and make sense of extensive research. Focal leverages AI to help us—and hopefully you—deal with data overload more effectively.

What Makes Focal Different:

Quickly Understand Complex Information: Time is precious. With Focal's AI-driven summaries, you can get to the heart of documents quickly, allowing more room for in-depth analysis and creative thought.

From Notes to Narratives: It's easy to accumulate research but harder to use it effectively. Focal aims to bridge this gap by helping you organize your findings and cite them writing content that you generate with our AI, whether they're academic texts, business reports, or insightful articles.

A Smarter Way to Find Insights: Think of Focal as a dedicated AI research assistant, ready to bring you precise facts and summaries without the need for endless searching. Search and query your documents with our AI Copilot.

We built Focal not just for a specific group of professionals but for anyone who sees value in extracting more from the information they encounter. Our aim is for Focal to be a helpful tool for the curious, the driven, and those who love to learn and understand, without claiming it solves every challenge.

We're introducing Focal to the HackerNews community and excited to hear any thoughts or feedback!
I love it, my wife hates it. It has been a running joke between us for the last twenty years.
Mostly good for talent pipeline imo. I try to look for curiosity and autonomy when interviewing prospective interns. That way I can let them explore cool topics that we don't have the bandwidth for.
Bear in mind that (at least where I'm located) they are still students / in the middle of their training. They require more supervision than new employees. I consider this to be a plus, for instance if you want one of your team member to level up in coaching/management skills.
I also assumed this was an April fool's joke from the other terraform.

I don't see the point. In the end it's always the consumer who wants to buy stuff from the companies.

It's as meaningless as blaming China for high emissions. Yes, the country is the number one CO2 producer, so what? What if we divide China into two or three smaller countries? Whould that make China drop from the first place? Yes. Would that actually change anything? No.

It's the consumer who decides to buy stuff they crave but don't actually need. You want a new laptop/phone/car/whatever because the old one is missing a single feature? Then take responsibility for your actions and don't blame companies that are just doing what you paid them to do.

Information doesn't have to be explicitly linked to a person in order to identify them. Search browser fingerprinting as an example. The best policy is really to not collect this information.
This is not "graduate-level", it's a straightforward generalization of something that all school age kids learn. (Which is not too say that it's trivial to obtain an expression. I'm just saying it's not conceptually advanced)
"Let there be light" is such a good joke.
Reading the article, many false claims can be spotted: 1) This idea is not new, the same periodicity was found previously. 2) Their idea is the extension of the well known fact any prime is either of the form 6n+1 or 6n -1 with n a Natural number. In this case, the second primorial 6 = 2x3 is used. They use the 4th primorial 210 = 2x3x5x7. The problem with these "predictive" way to recognize primes is the fact that quite soon false positive start to emerge. For example, in the case of 6 the first false positive is 25 = 6x4 +1. In fact, it is very easy to know to which extent is the scheme valid; to the square of the first predicted square, in case of 6, it is 5, therefore 25 is the limit. In their case, their system will predict 11, but it will start to fail as early as 121. Even they recognize that for "large" primes they need to incorporate 11 in the scheme, but such a new method will also start to fail at the deceptively small 169. 3) Therefore, this paper is no breakthrough as the primes are infinite, they method can't predict all primes, and they even fail to recognize the limits of their method. In the paper mentioned before, these facts are all treated and an extended symmetry among the prime numbers found.

Until you understand that for a very large number of Israelis Palestinians are sub-human you will waste your efforts trying to argue with Israelis based on rationality or ethics. They are racists full stop.

The reason is simple: it’s the combination of forced military and being the descendants of a generation that migrated and ethnically cleansed Palestine are overwhelmingly potent sources of indoctrination. Most people tend to assimilate and therefore they will blend into the Israeli military (and you see what kind of ethics they have) and most people find it difficult to condemn their parents and grandparents as genocidal monsters so instead they will favor whatever narrative absolves their lineage.
Ok, here’s a an Israeli news outlet referencing the same event, but from the IDF perspective.
https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/idf-officer-rec....

The “biased” video I posted is simply a recording of an interview of a survivor of the kibbutz on an Israeli talk show. Do you have any substantive critique of the video, besides just lazily dismissing it as biased?
> However, shouldn't the aim be towards empowering an individual towards the human condition that they desire? Of course, within the constraints of the allocated resources that society can provide. That search to enable self-actualization and purpose for people can inherently come with tasks that are... well boring.

> Sending an email that is critical to fostering an important business connection can sometimes be a chore. But it's important. People with ADHD especially struggle with this, as they thrive on brains that crave stimulation. Many live very unsatisfying lives (higher rates of unemployment, depression, divorce) as a result of this.

I agree but the solution in my mind is not more technology, because then these same people will have to learn how to use an AI system or interact with it. Even if it makes it easier for them, it will mean a reduced cognitive load so that technology and impose an even greater load later one. Sending an email would not even be an issue if we did not have email. Therefore, while you are correct within the confines of our high-tech society, I reject high-tech society outright because it is a progression of attainments of local maximae, themselves which are decreasing.

> In many cases, it can feel as if you're a prisoner to your mind. You don't feel like you have the agency to live the life you want. And why? Because of some executive function deficits? Why not use technology as a way to externalize these cognitive management malfunctions?

Because you do not free yourself from being a prisoner. If I had to use an AI tool, I would still feel like a prisoner because it's even less autonomy. People don't want to be coddled with more and more technological augmentation, they want a life with more time to do the things they love that does not involve technology -- of course, it might not seem so at first because they are addicted to it.

For example, in pretty much EVERY job I've seen these days that pays a decent wage, you have to live in a city, be trapped in a cage behind a screen, and do things that are abhorrent (furthering consumerism, or making unsustainable economic growth easier).

I am against virtually ALL modern technological development and I think we need to radically change our society to be more aligned with more sustainability, not invent more technology to get to the next local maximum.

I use obsidian to keep track of most things that are unstructured. This is where I keep my todos, my personal project documentation, meeting notes, etc.

For managing clients (or contacts really) I would use a table or a spreadsheet. This is you most important asset to be honest. Separate clients, leads and other contacts in extra lists. Keep track of when you met them, how you met them, their email, company, phone number and any random comment to understand what you can ask them for. Also, connect with other freelancers and try to help each other out.

For time management I use clockodo although there are many options: toggle, clockify, ... They all have their pros and cons.

Payments shouldn't be too complicated. As a solo contractor you will likely only have 1-3 clients at the same time. So it shouldn't be too hard to keep track of incoming payments. When you bill them, add a calendar entry when to check if it has been paid.

Generally, don't over-complicate things. Use simple tools as long as you are a solo contractor.
Why would you think that?

Net worth doesn't just include savings, it includes home equity and even equity in vehicles. In the US, right around 50% of 30-34 year olds are homeowners. If someone has been making payments on a house they will be adding to their net worth, especially recently with the rise in housing prices. For non-rich people in the US, the majority of their net worth will be their home equity.
