I think intuition is just fundamentally fast labelling of things based on past experience.

Emotions are more of a construct, that seems life specific, although AI could have it, I'm not seeing an obvious case for current AI to have it. While I see intuition in current AI. Again, intuition is just a neural net to me, while emotions are some more complex reward and motivation system that I'm not too certain about. I think emotions are largely developed to perform in social contexts. E.g. they are diplomatic constructs to assert oneself and communicate with each other so of course AI just out of the blue wouldn't need it. E.g. you get angry, to show that you are asserting yourself and so others wouldn't use you for their gain etc. Because it would be too costly to engage with an angry person so everyone negotiates their emotions with each other so things would seem fair and just.

Thoughts could very well be just next token predictors though. At least my thoughts could be.

Ask HN: Is an affiliate directory a viable business?
I have an idea for a web app that I want to build – a supplement search that allows to search every supplement on the market based on their active ingredients, allergens, price, etc. I figured out that I can aggregate most of the data, publish it as a spreadsheet, and try to promote it on Reddit and other social networks. My thinking is that people who are trying to find supplements and want to compare different supplements would use my web app to discover which supplements work the best for them. However, is there is a business in this?

> GPS satellites don't send down a location, they only send down time

They do send a location - to be more exact, they send rough locations of all satellites in the constellation (almanac) and precise location of themselves (ephemeris). Devices like mobile phones, however, usually get that data from other sources because it's much faster than listening to data over GPS.

> You're right that corruption is not exclusive to capitalism. All systems will have that in one way or another.

Right, and if you'd done any research into alternative economic systems at all, you'd realize that free market systems are the only feasible economic system because it best addresses corruption. Socialism, communism, fascism, and other systems are more vulnerable to corruption than free market systems.

> I truly wish I had a ready answer to something as big as this, but I don't

If you don't, then don't suggest that people experiment with other economic systems when the cumulative toll of those experiment to date weighs in at over a hundred million lives.

> The best I can come up with are multiple systems with checks

That is what we have right now. In America, Canada, the EU, and many, many other "capitalist" systems. Why are you proposing it, when we have it right now?

> Today the power that goes unchecked is capital

This is objectively false. Laughably so. "Capital", whatever that means (as anti-capitalists regularly shift their use of it to avoid being caught in logical fallacies), is not an unchecked power in any of the top dozen current world powers - especially not the US, where there are literally dozens[1] of government agencies tasked with monitoring and controlling money and business in the country.

> Lobbying, donations, media time, etc. It's all affected by it

Everything is also affected by the pride of human beings - yet that has no bearing on the equivalent claim that "the power that goes unchecked is ego" - both that statement and yours are equally false.

> systems like democracy were not designed to deal with external influence that is then used to consolidate itself

"Democracy" is meaningless. You have to pick out a specific implementation of it - like the US, whose political system is designed to deal with external influences. The fact that it fails is because of corruption of individuals elected in office by the people - not because "democracy" somehow can't handle existing in a free-market system.

[1] The Congressional Budget Office, Government Accountability Office, various agencies in the Department of Agriculture, basically everything in the Department of Commerce, the Secret Service, large swaths of the Department of Justice (especially the antitrust division) and the Department of Labor, the Bureau of Economic and Business Affairs in the Department of State, parts of the Department of Transportation and the Department of Treasury, the Federal Trade Commission, the Federal Communication Commission, the Federal Deposit Insurance Commission, the Securities and Exchange Commission, and many, many more. The claim that "the power that goes unchecked is capital" is objectively. Wrong.
Beautifully said.

Your comment about slogans reminds me of the 'thin blue line between anarchy and order' slogan the police themselves use which, to me, is a bare-faced admission of existing to protect the property and interests of the wealthy by suppressing the rest of us.

Apparently they provided 72 hours advance notice to neighbors (who probably tipped off the US and Israel, given the US warnings of an imminent attack). The Iranians presumably expected the information to leak. The US also had naval and air assets parked in the region to assist. It's hard to imagine a more favorable scenario for the defender. That makes it rather dangerous to try to generalize the performance in this instance to future events.

It also makes this whole exercise seem like dramatic saber-rattling rather than a serious effort to damage Israel's military capabilities.

they don't just spit out training data, they generalize from training data. They can look at an existing situation and suggest lines of experimentation or analysis that might lead to interesting results based on similar contexts in other sciences or previous research. They're undertrained on bleeding edge science so they're going to falter there but they can apply methodology just fine.

It's a shame that it didn't end up really going anywhere (in a very crowded field at the time), because it worked great and they had an on-prem solution that worked really well.

> the vigiles was that they were under the direct command of centurions, despite being largely slaves, and were organized into barracks

I've had difficulty determining if these were military centurions, or a broader use of the term.

Also realised: it’s uniquely difficult to draw a civil-military distinction in ancient Rome given how they thought about leadership--a good politician was a good general and vice versa. Within that context, given they were a mix of slaves and freedmen, had short life expectancies and were lightly armed [1], arguing they were more military than civil is like saying our police are military on the sole basis of being commanded by seargeants.

> must not accept that the police as they exist today are the only way policing can be done

Agree. A lot of things we administer today, on the other hand, were never publicly administered. Like mental health.

That was far more than 50M. Heavy ballistic rockets aren’t cheap even in Iran.

One must also be clear on what one means when "build muscle" is said, as there are different types:

> Human muscle fibers are generally classified by myosin heavy chain (MHC) isoforms characterized by slow to fast contractile speeds. Type I, or slow-twitch fibers, are seen in high abundance in elite endurance athletes, such as long-distance runners and cyclists. Alternatively, fast-twitch IIa and IIx fibers are abundant in elite power athletes, such as weightlifters and sprinters.

Schnorr wouldn't have helped in this specific case, since Schnorr is equally vulnerable to biased nonces (https://ecc2017.cs.ru.nl/slides/ecc2017-tibouchi.pdf).

EdDSA, which is essentially deterministic Schnorr, does solve the problem.

Also, the use of P-521 didn't specifically cause the vulnerability, but the bad interaction between SHA512 and P-521 did play a role. It is unfortunate that nature conspired against us to make 2^511 - 1 a composite number. The fact that you have to go up to 521 bits to get a Mersenne prime whereas the natural target length for a hash output is 512 bits is the fatal interaction here.

> I’d be more curious as to how anti-vaccine agendas ever became a thing. With a lot of these things like climate change, there are clear economic forces which will pour “tobacco is healthy” amounts of money into pushing whatever makes them money. But then you have something like antivaxing which quite literally benefits nobody, because even the people who don’t want to put themselves at risk by getting vaccinated still sort of do so by collectively bringing back terrible diseases through their destruction of the herd immunity… but who could possibly gain anything from spreading this nonsense? “Yay, polio and the measles are back!!!”. Then you have the more harmless stuff like flat-earthers which also don’t really have any obvious driving force. But at least it’s harmless and sort of funny.

The motivation for anti-vaccine--and flat-earthers, for what it's worth--is basically the same thing as Q-Anon. It's all primarily based on feeding on peoples' feeling of a conspiracy against them. It's not being pro-measles, it's thinking that the vaccine is a cover for the government trying to collect your DNA or euthanize your children or something, and there are all too many grifters who are willing to ride the wave of such thinking and flog their own products on top of that. Don't use the government's cure for COVID, buy my COVID cure for only $50! And I'm not the government or an evil megacorporation, so you know I'm trustworthy.

You mean commercial air transport, not general aviation [1].

Private, personal aircraft usage by licensed operators, like how cars are owned and used, generally falls into the general aviation bucket. At 1.5 fatalities per 100,000 flight hours [2] that is less safe than cars per distance unless the average flight speed is ~1000 mph, or around mach 1.3 (it is not, it is probably 1/3-1/5 that). That is despite the vastly greater training required for a pilot’s license.

As a side note: Ardour doesn't use a GPU for waveform rendering and so along the way we discovered that the "find max + min values for this chunk of samples" is more or less the most expensive operation in the prepare-to-render step (so much so that we cache these values on disk). We got a notable performance improvement from using SIMD instruction sets for this computation.
