Three points:

1. Dividends and share buybacks are the exact same thing, just with a different tax treatment.

2. A share buyback should not in itself produce an increase in share price. You decrease the $ of shares on the market by the exact amount you decrease the $ on your balance sheet.

3. An increase in share price is not business growth.

The feeling I got during the last months here when there are articles about this war is, that there are either many Israelis here flagging anything that makes Israel look bad, or many Americans, who somehow feel allegiance to Israel and think that this ever was about a good cause.

On the other hand of course there are also those that jump on any claim that makes Israel look bad. Claims of which there are many. Of which far too many have become pretty evident. Which far too many people do not want to be true and will ignore.

So what can one do? I guess keep an open mind and give claims a couple of days to be proven or disproven. Only then judge.

Notes from Beethoven's Genome
Given the total failure to achieve any of its stated objectives, has this use of AI benefited the IDF at all?

I would argue that it's likely the only outcome it has had that directly relates to IDF objectives has probably been negative (i.e. the unintended killing of hostages).

Sadly, I think that the continued use of this AI is supported because it is helping to provide cover for individuals involved in war crimes. I wouldn't be surprised if the AI really weren't very sophisticated at all and that to serve the purpose of cover that doesn't matter.

A similar dynamic bears out in a lot of games. For example, in most RTS games, you win at lower levels by simply out-macroing your opponent. Only when you are on equal footing later do tactics and strategy become important, despite those ostensibly being the core focus of the genre.
Tell HN: My CEO wants to shut down the intern program and use Devin instead
This summer was supposed to be our startup's first intern program ever, but I overheard my (non-technical) CEO mention the other day that she wanted to potentially axe the program (rescinding the 2 accepted offers so far) and just use Devin instead. Not sure how serious or not the statement was, but there weren't any laughs that followed and I thought the comment was in extremely poor taste. Just wanted to rant.

Then you confiscate, sure. And show publicly that you offered 10x and were refused. But not confiscation by default, in all cases.

I guess my argument is that if you really want something, you better pay up. Like for anything else, from cars and boats to 10x developers. What if the government could come to you whenever they want and say: I forcefully require your work and talent and I will not pay more than market price for it.

I am not sure what you mean by concurrent in this case, muxleq is just subleq with one extra instruction. The extra instruction is based off of multiplexing (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplexer). Subleq as you know is incredibly inefficient, muxleq is an experiment to add a single instruction to Subleq in order to greatly improve its efficiency.

The `mux` instruction added computes:

m[operand2] = (m[operand1] & ~selector) | (m[operand2] & selector)

As multiplexing is a universal gate (so long as you have access to true and false as constants) you can use this to calculate AND/OR/XOR, which are very expensive to do in a pure Subleq machine. It also means you can do a MOV in a single instruction instead of four (set the `selector` to zero in this case). This in turns speeds up indirect loads and stores.

> If the voters passed a measure, that caused substantial negative perception before it was fully implemented, then who's to blame?

> Maybe the voters should have been clearer on the implementation sequencing.

This is, again, begging the question. You're assuming the consequent.

Voters were clear on what they wanted. They directly voted for and passed a specific bill. Elected officials - not voters - refused to implement what voters chose. Then, elected officials - not voters - repealed the bill.

It's not like this was repealed by popular vote. As of today, there's not even any evidence that the same voters who approved this in 2020 have somehow changed their minds and oppose it today.

You're arguing from a position of pure speculation to support an a priori conclusion, and that's simply not logically sound.

> How does this not suffice as an excuse for any bad results from decriminalization?

This is ridiculous. You can't judge the effect of a policy that's not implemented. If you're willing to do that, you've left the realm of science altogether and might as well argue for policy based on astrology, or augury.
Good point. I haven't looked at mine but perhaps it is.

>See jhallenworld’s comment elsewhere in this post: > “Hamas terrorist” criteria: a male or fighting age…

Notably, this is not a criterion used by IDF, even though Hamas does everything to make it so.

Consider the usual criteria used to distinguish members of military organizations:

[ ] uniforms

[ ] operating from military bases separate from civilian buildings

[ ] name tags / military IDs

[ ] vehicles clearly identifiable as military (by markings, plates, etc)

All of those are required by international law.

I checked off all of the ones that Hamas uses.
While we're all playing armchair sociologist-cum-psychologist, I'd say IMHO it boils down to the lack of a compelling future. Which is to say there's a general disillusionment with the state of humanity (as far as values, realizing our full potential, whatever that means, etc.) I'm not saying it's an accurate belief, but that doesn't make it less real to those who subscribe to it. It might explain why rich kids are even more depressed than poor ones. If you're already rich and you hate life, it's harder to dream about a better life. You're "supposed" to be happy already.

I "blame" the sudden rise of social media and western society reorienting itself to highly addictive dopamine-hit loops. Before that, the end of the Fairness Doctrine and the subsequent weaponization of mass media. All without an accompanying evolution of cultural, social, moral norms (!= rules) to aid navigation in this brave new world.

The problem with modern search engines is discoverability. If you search for something by name, then sure you're likely to find it, but if you want to web surf and explore new content, then you're out of luck. My typical search results always turn up the same big sites: Wikipedia, YouTube, Twitter, Amazon, Reddit, etc. I rarely see new and novel websites promoted.
I sure hope they have a way to opt out of this. I find these business practices abhorrent.

Honestly, pretty spot on.

Love the last two lines especially.

I would suggest just two changes:
- when possible, build a narrative with numbers. Change or progress or adoption week over week as a percentage. Not only are the people reading likely smarter and busier than you, there's nothing easier to share with someone outside the effort than a short line that has numbers.

- If someone sent me an update at random times (2-3 weeks, rather than every tuesday) this would lead to me asking them every tues. Send the update, use something very office / dad joke to break up the monotony

I like to think of HN conversations as taking place in a third or fourth year university elective course. You are here because you want to learn something.

Expecting growth along a single metric like dollars while staying product-offering static is a problem once most of the energy/production/scale optimizations have been implemented. It seems fine that we should expect innovation companies to grow, as in progress, to produce new product classes and improve old ones. I personally don't hope every company is destined to become primarily a stagnant service company.

Although I'm pretty sure the pressure to grow doesn't solely come from the outside-in perspective. It feels like internal politics, incentives, and the individuals desires to make their mark results in a shift in priorities in otherwise settled product lines as well.

At this point it feels right to switch from calling it growth, to neutrally 'drive'. Assuming some sense of drive not only is useful, but is an necessary feature of humans producing... then if priorities are not oriented directly towards maximizing usability or the quality of product for the end user, it will result in a product being reasonably propelled away from maintaining those. And so it seems to me, it is the priorities not the existence of drive or growth that is the issue to be focused on. I feel trying to establish a culture without drive would be net counter productive.

TIL, [0]:

FMVSS No. 206 does not directly regulate either interior or exterior door handles. It does, however, impliedly require both interior and exterior door handles or other release mechanisms in its regulation of door locks (see generally, 49 CFR 571.206, S4.1.3 and S4.4.2).

Also UNECE R11[1] soft-require mechanical external door handles.

I think there are also other implied requirements from other sections/directives, such as in crash safety that the doors are required to be locked while crashing, unlocked after a crash, can be opened but not unlatched and flopping. Meanwhile, electrical systems would be required not to pose hazards. I’m guessing those together are ruling out all but flap type manual handles, at least on front side doors.

The Collapse of Small Press Distribution
Is it possible that people don’t import many vehicles because the chicken tax applies to all the most popular models? A 25% tax is likely suppressing imports. I find it noteworthy that our domestic automakers have in some cases entirely stopped producing any vehicles which aren't protected by the chicken tax (i.e. Ford).

Edit: It is shockingly difficult to find statistics on imports as a % of US market size, if you want to filter out Canada+Mexico and also separate cars vs. trucks. Everything either lumps Canada+Mexico into "imports" or fails to differentiate cars (not subject to chicken tax) vs. trucks (subject to chicken tax).
A society where no corporation could ever reduce employee count would cause a lot more problems than it solves.

Of course many tech companies already give substantial equity to employees as part of their compensation. Maybe there are government policies to encourage this to be more wide spread, but I'm not sure what those policies would look like.
That’s quite a definition of masculine you’ve got there.

Trucks don’t have a cool factor unless you already like trucks, normal cars - hell my decade old Prius C - handles “the dilapidated infrastructure of the modern city” with ease as well, and it can park easily as well! I’ve driven plenty of pickups (utes!), SUVs, vans, etc and honestly I find super squishy pickup suspension unpleasant, though in fairness that seems more a matter of US car design in general.

A small hatchback is better by pretty much every metric in my experience: you can carry loads of stuff - obviously not as much as a pickup could but I’ve needed that much haulage maybe once or twice times in the last five years - but it can also park easily, costs less to run, and can hold as many people as the majority of trucks.

I get that you like trucks, that’s really not a problem - it becomes a problem only if you’re going all in on BS like coal rolling and “masculine” driving - but you need to recognize that the overwhelming majority of the time a truck is not the right choice. As for SUVs as far as I can make out that’s just a combination of all the weaknesses of trucks and cars, with a side note pedestrian carnage.

Chrome advised and inspired this work in their position about JPEG XL.

Here: https://www.mail-archive.com/blink-dev@chromium.org/msg04351...

"can we optimize existing formats to meet any new use-cases, rather than adding support for an additional format"

It's a yes!

Of course full JPEG XL is quite a bit better still, but this helps old compatible JPEG to support HDR without 8-bit banding artefacts or gainmaps, gives a higher bit depth for other uses where more precision is valuable, and quite a bit better compression, too.
