but Boris' antics did carry over -- Trump used them a lot. during the impeachments anytime something especially damming or annoying would pop up he'd tweet something silly. when the Magninsky Act was discussed he sent a big ole screed about how he was banning transgender folks in the military -- an issue the military didn't care about and had mostly solved.

this may be just that Elon is losing his filter and doesn't have to care -- TSLA still hasn't cratered for some freakin reason...

>The introduction of cheap Chinese autos — which are so inexpensive because they are backed with the power and funding of the Chinese government — to the American market could end up being an extinction-level event for the U.S. auto sector,” the organization writes.

This would never happen. The industry is too big to fail. It would get bailed out just like it did during the 2008 crisis.
> How much of this is "genius" and how much is just "a stopped clock being right twice a day"? I'm not going to pretend to know, but I could probably write a markov chain to generate a dozen ideas for a product, and if one of them happens to be successful, does that imply that the markov chain is some kind of complicated genius?

I've played with Markov chains, and… no. While you can totally generate some stuff with them, they're not even close to the level of ChatGPT — and ChatGPT is the reference point I use these days for "are you sure you know about this subject?", in part due to someone else describing it as "mansplaining as a service". For a lot of the stuff Musk suggests which horrifies domain experts (like how the tunnels are so narrow that if a car catches fire the people in it can't get out), what he says is stuff I'd put in this category.

But he seems to have more lucid and self-aware moments besides those, and many of which are also things which are more mocked than being horrifying (e.g. powered vertical landing to reuse rockets). It comes across to me (not a psychologist) as something of a bipolar personality — or as if some of his ideas resulted from snorting a white powdered stimulant (a category which includes caffeine, unwise as that is).
They literally print money; smart move for them to make this investment imo.

If you run against convention too much, even when convention is wrong, you become the zealot guardian, which conjures a family situation with its own distinct pathologies.
It's shocking to me that you think yourself even remotely powerful enough to have prevented his suicide.

It "takes a village" to fulfill a human's social needs. No one's brother can, on their own, fulfill all another's needs. His deep thoughts, his poop jokes, his pillow talk, his watercooler chat? We need whole communities for which no individual can substitute. You might do well to recognize your own social poverty.

I'm sorry that you blame yourself. I tell my siblings not to blame themselves for my depression, isolation, and alienation. The fact is that these are statistical trends evidencing large, multidimensional social structures. They're unassailable by individuals. There was nothing "you" could have done.

It's still a traumatic brain injury and the clinical boundary is fuzzy. A concussion that significantly harms you is just called a TBI so I guess it's denotationally correct that one concussion is fine. Not very reassuring though.

Say hi to most DWH, DB developments...
Everybody has a dev environment and a staging/qa environment. Places with better processes just have them so they're separate from production. :p

IMHO, it's better to be a cowboy and reluctantly follow 'best practices' for the most part, than to be a 'best practices' person and be unprepared to be a cowboy when it's needed.

Sometimes, the best way forward is to force an update on production, even if the only method you have is modifying the executable on disk, while it's running. It's mmaped, so you can do this. But you wouldn't know this if you hadn't broken production by using cp instead of install to update a binary you wanted to modify for the next load.
Daily stand-ups (DSU) are a drag and not what they should be: "what I did yesterday...what I plan to do today...I am/am not blocked...blah, blah, blah".

It has to be secure and functional otherwise people will use office365 or google docs or dropbox.

This Woman Will Decide Which Babies Are Born
False. Helmets are shown to reduce concussion and other head injuries in sport.

For example:

https://ufhealth.org/news/2021/headgear-significantly-reduce...

Female high school lacrosse players are significantly less likely to sustain concussions and other injuries if they wear headgear, a landmark study led by University of Florida Health researchers has found.

Girls who play the sport in states that don’t require headgear had a 59% higher concussion rate than players in Florida, the only state with a headgear mandate. The researchers also found lacrosse games were more hazardous than practices: Concussions were 74% higher during competition among players in states without headgear requirements when compared with Florida players.

Those details emerged from data collected during 357,225 games and practices in Florida and other states during three seasons from 2018 to 2021. The findings were presented today at the American Academy of Pediatrics national conference

> literally killing the spirit

There's no material evidence for "spirit".
I don't know. It seems to me that every American brand other than Tesla is pretty much a non-concern outside of pickups. We could always wind up with America car production being dominated by the Germans and Japanese along with Tesla, with Ford, GM, and Chrysler being a thing of the past. Heck, we could wind up with Chinese autos produced in the USA, because how different is Mississippi from Henan anyways?
Your comment makes zero sense. Are you implying that the sales restrictions are causing the high alcoholism rates?

If so: that's an absurd contention.

If not: perhaps the regulation is a response to the levels of alcoholism? Or is entirely independent of them? You present no evidence that the monopoly is either harmful or ineffective.
OK So it is somewhat open but you could use a set of standard accounts, I see.

Makes sense. Probably it's important to keep somewhat of a registers of accounts available to avoid making mistakes and to write directions on where things should go

Show HN: Quotient AI – Build better AI products fast
Hey HN,

We are excited to reveal Quotient, a platform enabling developers to evaluate, improve and ship high-quality AI products through fast, real-world, data-backed experimentation. [1]

Every developer understands that for a change in their system to be strategic rather than impulsive, it is crucial and essential to test its impact on the desired outcome. The ability to do this seamlessly, swiftly, and reliably results in flywheels of iterative improvements, which ultimately create disruptive products that delight users.

Quotient equips all AI developers with the tools to achieve just that. With Quotient, you can swiftly gauge the effectiveness of their generative AI solutions to meet the unique requirements of each user or customer.

Quotient offers AI developers the capability to evaluate their AI products with specialized datasets and frameworks, which can be customized or ready-to-use, and tailored to their organization. By addressing challenges in evaluation management, version control, and orchestration, Quotient streamlines assessments of models, prompts, and retrieval augmentation through rapid, data-driven iteration cycles.

Our vision for Quotient is rooted in our experience developing the evaluation infrastructure behind GitHub Copilot. You can read more about our mission and founding story here.

We are currently providing free access to our beta, with enterprise-grade plans available to our power users. You can request access through our website. [2]

We are also hiring! [3]

Finally, if you are working on an AI experiment, project, or product, and are (stuck) thinking about testing and improvements – we want to hear from you! Shoot us a note at contact@quotientai.co with some info about your work – we’ll schedule some time to chat and see how we can help.

We’re excited to hear from you, and see what we can achieve, together.

It looks like an interesting approach but it seems conceptually complex and difficult for general users to consume. Can you explain how this differs from Gridlock which is an app that allows any level user create a network of storage devices using threshold cryptography?
> Paid by the standards of Kenya, perhaps. Not America.

Well, with him being the world record holder, I'd assume he beat some americans too. And that they were not paid Kenya wages to go to that competition they lost to Bolt.

> How many people are willing to pay you - who are not Usain Bolt - your current salary to watch you do whatever it is you do for sheer entertainment value for decades to come?

Not sure, but i think it can be done. There was a mention of someone doing live coding with a Patreon and all here on HN in the past few years :)

TBH I think that in a few years 'no AI' will become a badge of honour in arts and entertainment. Just like the 'handmade' clothing/furniture...

As for how many people can make a living out of it, most artists/entertainers starve by definition. Or are amateurs. I've certainly paid to do sports before.
The way I understand debits and credits is to take the same equation and name the left and right side.

Assets + Expenses = Equity + Income + Liabilities

Sum of all debits = sum of all credits

These two equations have their sides associated.

Assets and equities increase with a debit and decrease with a credit, and vice versa.
It doesn't matter about the person buying lemonade. Their accounts are theirs alone and don't affect your accounts.
If you are going to use a thief analogy at least make it accurate. Having a moral objection to defense is like objecting to doors and locks (defense against thieves) and so not only are you going to not work on anything lock related you are going to openly advocate no one else work on them or manufacture them as well, leaving us all at risk.
How is this different from the risk that a dataframe library will stop supporting S3:// URIs? Why wouldn't Foozle's release notes mention a major protocol change? How is this scenario different from any other library making a major change without documenting it?
Indeed. Zsh history + FZF is my second brain.

I tag some commands with #some-comment in the end so I can search easier.
The ban was for something that had just happened, which was the poor response to emails and the inflammatory blog post.

People keep trying to frame it like the ban was strictly for past actions from years ago, which I find disingenuous at worst and gullible at best.
I really would hate if awards started being handed out to meet diversity requirements. Hopefully we don't get their, and increased diversity in the field today means more diverse Turing awards 30-40 years from now.
>I recently found out that helmets do nothing to prevent concussion regardless of the sport.

Saying they "do nothing" isn't completely true, at least based off more recent designs, but it is generally true that helmets are less effective than most people think. The problem is that your brain can move around in your skull so there is only so much you can do by adding protection outside of your skull. Think of it like putting an egg in a glass jar. Adding padding to the outside of the jar might be enough to save the egg in a single drop, but it isn't going to stop the egg from breaking if you shake the jar.

There is also the fact that safety equipment impacts behavior. Someone wearing a helmet is going to be more cavalier with their head than someone not wearing a helmet. It is possible this effect completely cancels out the slim benefits of a helmet which has caused some people to argue that a game like American football would actually become safer if helmets were outlawed. The main obstacle there is that we absolutely would see a rise in acute injuries like fractured skulls and those are tougher to ignore than the chronic brain damage that might take decades to reveal itself.
Maybe freeing kids from the grip of social media addiction prevents future Uvaldes?
Rents are soaring. Is RealPage to blame?
Pretty much my sentiment. In a bar fight with no friends acting as referees, these rapid head shots could easily be a precursor to a 3rd or even 2nd degree murder charge. You’re not going for a win anymore, you’re trying to inflict permanent damage.
Those exploits have existed for 10-15 years, they are as old as the hackintosh community.

There is a difference between commercial exploitation and hobbyist usage - just like with legacy emulation vs pirating. And no, apple really hasn’t come down despite knowing it exists, and probably wouldn’t have without beeper.
I wonder what the author thinks of zsh. Unlike bash, zsh completion just works. It's context-aware, properly completes subcommands and options, and doesn't suffer from the problem explained in the article. It even shows descriptions for each of the completion candidates.

In contrast, bash almost always falls back to filename completion for the most common commands even when third party frameworks like bash-completion are installed. It's frustrating when I have to deal with interactive bash sessions because, sigh, Docker.
I'd ask what you disagree with, but you're calling an open-ended question an argument so I doubt it would be a productive discussion. I doubt you'd have had the same initial response if I'd said 'decision makers in the security and intelligence branches of the civil service'.

Incidentally, I think a lot of insights can be gotten into psychological warfare if one likens it to cellular biology and the games viruses and engineers play to get a cell to accept foreign code. What we're seeing here is an excellent example of an immune response that looks for 'tells' of hostile activity causing an allergic reaction.
When I talk to accountants, I get confused with debit/credit so I use "increase" and "decrease". Everyone seems to understand me fine. For example, "Decrease cash", to buy equipment "increases assets". "Increase cash" by borrowing money is "increasing liability".
Before Kia it was Honda and Toyota in the 80s/90s. Before that there was the 70s love affair with small Italian and British imports like Fiat and Mini. Before that was the 60s love affair with Volkswagen. It's a cycle that has happened so many times already in the US of imports filling small car niches (both niches that are small and large niches that include smaller cars) the domestic manufacturers ignore for too many years at a time. You would almost think that US manufacturers would have learned by now given how many times it has repeated.
And you wonder why China is experiencing brain drain. Rest of world is moving toward 4-day work week and these guys think their citizens are dumb enough to slave away their lives.
> Kaleido color screens are really just regular black and white E Ink Carta screens with a fancy passive filter over the top...

Yeah, and I remember an interview where they also said that is why colour e-ink's screen are not at all costly to manufacture. But adoption is slow because they sell it at a "premium" price. Even B&W e-ink can be a lot cheaper.
I know it’s easy to use in robotics, my problem is more that in order to use it, you have to use Linux or Windows or bypass the benefits of an OS altogether. Java on SeL4 would be great to have.
Do you think its kyriarch's ideas that drive oppression? The corporate egregore hungers for profit, and will squeeze every ounce of value from the world that's not nailed down, ie consciously resisted. The man has already heard of "longer working hours," and the only thing stopping their implementation is our self-respect.
You're thinking like a startup founder where you should only focus on innovating your main product. FB is a mature company where some vertical integration can make sense.
The only time I've ever seen source and sink used is in electronics. You may as well call it squeem and flurb, source and sink isn't helping anyone.
>But that's still correlation.

Depends on the experimental design. If it was an RCT with sufficient sample size, it would be causal.
It’s hare-brained. The article is over-egging the pudding. They haven’t established a justification, and the author’s claim that this visualisation helped them arrive at a clearer understanding is rather undermined by the category errors they make in the course of trying to geeksplain D.E. from first principles. What’s more they’ve represented only one very simple transaction. God knows how they’re going to gain from a graph-based visualisation of something more abstract e.g. dissimilar tax and book depreciation, adjustments for gains/losses on foreign exchange, allocation of franked dividends, PAYG, holding of amounts in trust for other parties, partial recognition of deferred revenue and so forth.
right, but I'm wondering specifically about the part that is propaganda.
JSON is not without its own problems. Not the least for getting very close to what folks want, but just falling short when things get complicated.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CDATA is something far too few people pay attention to when considering the complications of object notation and why markup languages have some escape hatches.
> The "credit" and "debit" terminology is ridiculous because their definitions swap around depending on which account

I find it easy to just think of debit as adding to the left and credit as adding to the right. Their definitions are always the same that way.
