Yes. My point is that I don’t believe in being punitive toward people for expressing opinions different than mine. My original comment follows pretty logically from that belief.

Which is why I asked you what you thought it meant to say, “people should be allowed to express themselves”.
I don't want to imagine your level of radicalism if you think HN is anywhere on the right. In my opinion you would have to be at the point of being completely disassociated with reality.
When you have an economic system where most of the economic growth goes to a small percentage each year the system will keep compressing the wealth to one side till the system breaks. With the advancement in AI I think the problem is likely to be exacerbated as more of the economic growth is captured by corporations from the workforce.

Maybe in school. I was bullied by a supervisor at a previous job. Didn't want to get fired for insubordination.
Ah, I wasn’t necessarily trying to imply anything about OP’s post.

Just that what worked for him might not work for many others. I’m still happy to hear he did ;)
I think they're suggesting "change the name", which neglects the value of identifiers as _things people talk about_. It's a fine approach if module names are equivalent to ISBNs, but they're not really.
While I don't disagree with the general sentiment the old Internet (late 90s to first half of the 00s) was very different topologically from the Internet of today.

Colleges especially were lousy with IP addresses. They'd assign a routable IP to every computer on their campus, including the ResNets. They also handed out shared disk space on servers because that was new and novel. If you knew the right people you could even get a vanity subdomain on the school's domain.

A significant amount of "wild" Internet content was found on those servers that lived on college campuses. Another significant source of "wild" content was ISP-provided web space. Most ISPs offered a few tens of megabytes of web hosting easily accessed via FTP. A lot of HTML authoring software of the era could publish directly to an FTP account. While the likes of GeoCities and AngelFire get a lot of the nostalgia today, they were far from the only source of garish web pages filled with questionable content.

In the early 00s colleges stopped giving out routable IPs to everything with a NIC and started cracking down on closet servers and web space. Besides the network security angle the MPAA and RIAA were on a tear suing colleges for "hosting" pirated content. ISPs also dropped their shared hosting around the same time. By 2010 all the major free web hosting services had shut down or enshittified to uselessness.

Without those places a lot of "wild" content just died out. People did move to hosted blogs like LiveJournal, Wordpress, or Tumblr but even those weren't the same type of "wild" sites that came before. The "wild" content has been further hurt by Google's algorithms' insistence that only content published in the past ten seconds is worthwhile and even then its only worthwhile if its SEOed to death and has Google Ads running on it.

For the most part people just moved to social media. There's zero need for administration, bandwidth is a non-issue, and publishing is pushing "Post". The downside is its social media and discoverability or even availability outside the platform is challenging or non-existent.

For non-technical people it's extremely difficult to set up a "wild" site on the Internet anymore. Even for the technically inclined it's a thankless pain in the ass to administer and keep up. If you do set something up it becomes a constant battle against spammers and script kiddies. Even just something going viral can get your account suspended or rack up huge egress fees on a cloud provider.

I love the idea of re-wilding the Internet we shouldn't pretend the Internet of today is the same as the Internet of the last century.

Edit: I a word.

It’s a titanium alloy (Ti-6-4) that’s commonly used in medical implants, and it probably melts at pretty high temp - the wrought form is used in turbine engine compression disks

This is like a 3D printed metal scaffold, in the paper they’re doing compression tests. Probably more likely structural applications than medical I’m guessing

I'd just like a nice, one click option, to completely remove the tabs. I make use of Tree Style Tab extension and just want the top bar gone.
One of the speedrunners in the community managed to beat the level on their own as well before the servers went down. Not as technically interesting, but it's super cool to see what those players are capable of nowadays.

This person gets it. They read what I wrote. Definitely didn't just respond to a straw man version of what I said. /s
It’s not like there’s another option, which is why the DOJ probably has a case. If you want to attend certain games it’s a) be a season ticket holder or b) pony up to a monopoly.
This is purely my personal philosophy but I view that, ultimately, my validation is when I'm happy with my actions, position in life, and personal accomplishments.

I love sharing those with friends and family. But I hate the opaque algorithms on social media sites that are tuned to prioritize engagement & time spent on the service. I find that these algos are rewarding rage bait due to their engagement farming.

Sharing with those that I want to share with, in an environment free of algorithms and capitalistic intentions provides that validation. And having a random site visitor here and there who enjoys what I have to say is just icing on the cake.

As I get older, I realize that we were never meant to have 10,000 people looking at what we ate for lunch, or the mess our cat made while we were at work. Interactions like that back in the 1500s would have made us more influential than Kings. A close-knit community that cherishes the expression of all our oddities, curiosities, and hobbies is something that just can't be replicated in current social media.
The policy is trained from human demonstrations. When you're teleoperating a robot you tend to "not do anything" with the arm you're not actively focusing on unless you need to do bi-manual operations.
It’s far from a guaranteed anything actually but I understand your point that we can have a robust government that is useful as a bridge to the middle class - and that’s exactly what it is in a lot of cases

Impossible to tell unfortunately but it doesn’t seem like it in my case
Looking at the quality of life, infrastructure, physical safety, proliferation of firearms, etc., the US already looks like a 3rd-world country to me. It's why I moved out.
The illusion of state in state-space models
Yeah, good luck simulating a terrorist attack at an airport, or simulating legal tender, or simulating a police officer.

There are plenty of laws that make it an offense to perform a simulation. Nitpicking the term simulation as being meaningless, whether in a legal context or otherwise, isn't a particularly noteworthy discussion to have. I think most people understand the meaning of simulated CSAM and can have an opinion on whether it should be legal or illegal without being pedantic about the word "simulated".
You're referring to The Boeing 787: Broken Dreams published in 2014 by Al Jazeera

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvkEpstd9os

This revealed a host of problems with the 787 Dreamliner, mainly that its battery packs catch fire (which is why it was grounded by the FAA from January to April 2013 to revise the battery design). This is the plane relevant to this latest whistleblower, but not the same plane as the 737 MAX, the one with the MCAS system and the door plugs missing bolts
I'm a bit skeptical that this in particular is a major issue, for the sole reason that fuselage joint shims, tolerances, bends, and fasteners on the 787 have been under a ridiculous level of scrutiny since 2019 and earlier: https://aviationweek.com/air-transport/new-boeing-787-fix-de...

It's clear that Boeing have awful quality control issues, but this one seems like it's already been investigated extensively. I absolutely believe that non-approved, dangerous procedures were used to fit 787 panels together, but this was known 5+ years ago and heavily investigated.

Of course, that doesn't justify retribution against a whistleblower. Which is all to say - I do believe Boeing are deeply questionable as an organization, but I'd still be comfortable flying on a 787.
I’m white, but I often notice all white panels discussing how awful white people are, but somehow neglected to invite a non-white person to participate in the discussion.
Yes! Came here to recommend this video as well. Dan Olson (Folding Ideas) has some of the best long-form content on YouTube, period.
The premise is that the tax rate of millionaires is of interest as distinct from the tax rate of the typical person because millionaires are considered as having an above average amount of wealth, i.e. the topic at hand is how the wealthy are taxes relative to the less wealthy. If inflation moves typical amounts of wealth closer to millionaire levels, the analysis no longer provides the same level of insight into that topic.
Seems like Boeing could benefit from a Netflix style chaos monkey approach. Formalize a red team with the power to sabotage parts and processes throughout the build, measure downstream inspectors' responsiveness and demote and promote accordingly. Isolate the red team from the rest of the corporate culture, reward them in proportion to estimated lives saved, and arrange for their reports to be made public without a filter. Anyway it will take some such radical reform and transparency to regain trust.

I'd like to share some of my experiences on this topic.

Growing up, I faced several adversities. My parents divorced when I was young, and I lived with my mother until the age of 13. Unfortunately, my mother struggled with alcoholism, often bringing friends over, even during my early school years. However, in hindsight, I believe she deeply missed my father and coped with her pain through drinking. Despite her struggles, I know she loved me.

Life became even more challenging when my stepfather entered the picture. I endured multiple school absences due to injuries like broken noses and ribs. Eventually, I reached a breaking point and called my real father, expressing my desire to live with him. One day, I left my mother's home and never returned.

Transitioning to life with my father brought new dynamics, including a stepmother and stepbrother. While our financial situation improved, a different form of abuse emerged, one that was emotional and insidious. I often found myself unfairly blamed and punished for things I hadn't done. Despite evidence implicating my stepbrother, I was consistently scapegoated. To extended family and relatives, I became the problem child, while my stepbrother was seen as an angel. My stepmother's behavior shifted when my father was present, exacerbating the emotional turmoil.

My academic performance suffered, contrasting sharply with my previous success under my mother's care. I developed a video game addiction, became extremely thin and struggled with dissociative identity disorder, challenges that persisted into my university years and adulthood.

Despite graduating with a GPA of 2.7 and needing an extra year to complete university, I was able to secure a job, thanks to the kindness of the people I met during an internship. I faced numerous exam retakes due to heavy gaming. Financial stability, facilitated by my father, spared me from experiencing poverty and enabled my education. Now, at 26, I'm married with a baby on the way in May. I'm determined to provide unwavering love and support to my child and wife, drawing from my own experiences of feeling blamed and unloved.

Reflecting on my past, I regret leaving my mother's home. A mother's love is irreplaceable, transcending monetary value. However, I don't blame anyone except myself. In conclusion, I might have been an unlikable and unlovable brat, often inciting displeasure and animosity. On top of that, loving a stepchild is undoubtedly challenging. Yet, I believe that surviving abuse and adversity can catalyze personal growth in ways we may not immediately perceive. Most importantly, it's crucial to have someone who loves you, whether it's a significant other, partner, or friend, especially if you're unable to find that love and support within your own home.
This is built in. My university had an academic census date. After that date, you are unable to take on or drop any courses. This is probably the same for other universities.
You have to use their modem*. You can bring your own router which is what every nerd should probably be doing anyway, but there's no option for an off the shelf modem.

Just want to follow up on this thread to say that Framework (directly via nrp) did follow up with my org and me, and was able to get the aforementioned paperwork back to us.

It's encouraging to see that they've taken this kind of feedback so seriously, and I'm hoping that the organizational steps outlined above will help to make this process smoother for other groups in a similar position looking to buy from Framework moving forward.

I used to love listening to All Things Considered followed by Planet Money every day on my grueling commute home from work. It was my only companion. I haven't turned it on in years.

I mourn the loss. Living in a red area NPR was a much-needed breath of Fresh Air.
Is there not a liability of people getting sick or trawling through nonsense and bad quality products?
Sure, but the point was that you have to buy another gadget. And there's still a box you don't control that has to live in your basement (or wherever) doing some not insignificant lifting.

Wouldn't it be nice if you could just configure the box you're paying for already to do the right thing?
What's the value of modeling GTK2, GTK3, and GTK4 as the "same" library with a different major version number while modeling Qt as a separate library? They're all incompatible.

Absolutely.

Like with anything else, you literally get what you pay for. Free search services like Google and DuckDuckgo indeed suck. I pay for Kagi, and have a wonderful search experience. I seldom have trouble finding anything. Once in a while I use someone else's computer and have to use Google. What a jarring, unpleasant experience.
Yeah, it is easy to lose perspective of how safe air travel is today compared to even as recently as the '90s. See for example the 737 rudder jams, in which people died in multiple incidents during the '90s, yet for some reason it got much less media coverage

I'd probably start simpler. I'd just start with either cbracken or matan's rules and see if I could get some basic Flutter projects building nicely with Bazel. Then I'd look to see how it would make sense to integrate with Flutter tools.

I think there are still open questions as to what kinds of projects would want to use bazel. And if they do use bazel, what do they do for all the other services flutter_tools currently provides (like running on a device)? Inside Google they have different (bazel-specific) implementations for "run this app on an android device" so they don't use the `flutter` tool internally I don't think. I do think some of the internal bazel rules might call into `flutter` though? I'm not sure. Those are all question's I'd explore after having some working examples that I could stare at and decide if I liked the DX of them before proceeding further.
That’s kind of the opposite of woke.
It's a nation of ~360-370 million people including undocumented.

Have you seen the horrific conditions the poorest people of Europe 'survive' in? The ghettos of Eastern Europe are every bit as bad as the worst areas of Baltimore or St Louis. The bad areas in and around Paris are hyper minority poverty with zero upward mobility and extreme unemployment problems (thus the annual large riots). People in rural Western Russia live in third world conditions on $20-$30 per month; they live like nothing has improved in a century. To say nothing of the Ukraine war, which is now part of their living condition (for Ukraine and Russia). You realize how poor Moldova or North Macedonia are? The level of education and outcomes among the bottom 20% of Europe is every bit as bad as the bottom 20% in the US.

It's exceptionally difficult to provide a median (or median+) first world outcome to so many, perhaps impossible.
Wild Arms, Star Ocean: The Second Story, Tales of Eternia and the PS3 Uncharted series.

The first two I played the original Japanese PS1 versions. I can honestly say that the remakes may be worth playing as they are easier and more intuitive from what I have seen. However, if you want to enjoy the original music, art and mechanics then I suggest the PS1 originals.

Tales of Eternia blew me away with how much I enjoyed it having never played a Namco RPG. Worth it all the way.

Having heard the excitement for Uncharted back in the heyday of the PS3 but never owning one back then it was nice to play it in the current time. The graphics have aged well and the gameplay is really engaging. Definitely some of the best gaming I've had that was for PS3.

And lastly, I played through Devil May Cry 1-3. I get why it was a hit but not my cup of tea personally.
Or you would just get a nice GPT generated emoji-image.
It's possible, just beware that other-distro versions of Nix are pretty aggressive at patching themselves into your shell profiles, which is often undesirable.
That will not happen in the US court system. Also, the Guardian article below about this happening to scientists was in the Italian court system, not the US.

It more or less does if your local DNS is just presenting DoH as normal DNS to every device on your LAN, since most devices let you configure DNS per network (even smart TVs, which is nice) but may not have any option for DoH. But at some point you have to trust someone.

IMHO, the only version to which we should ascribe significance is the minor version, which we increment monotonically. systemd uses this approach.

What's the purpose of a major version? If you break compatibility, make a new library with a new name. Incorporate the major version into the library name --- not "sqlite 3.x", but "sqlite3 x". This way, your versioning scheme is less complex overall because it deals in fewer concepts.

If you publish a sqlite4, and it can't share a process with sqlite3, mark sqlite4 in package metadata as being incompatible with sqlite3. Now you get the same single-major-version invariant that some package systems support without the fuss.
And there is 0 accountability for misleading marketing claims and the people that supported it.
Sure. It's a real problen. But that was a verging-on-cover-story part of Berliner's criticism, which was just another crypto-fascist diatribe, of the kind that are currently so depressingly ubiquitious.

And when they do, it’s someone they hand-picked to say the things they want to hear.

>>The US is dealing with increasing corruption and nepotism, aging infrastructure, sliding standard of living for lower income americans, a shrinking middle class, unsustainable federal debt/spending, and all of those problems are going to be greatly exacerbated by the impending demographics pinch.

>What advanced nation isn’t suffering from most of those?

Japan. The infrastructure is generally fantastic, and well-maintained (new trains are being built, bridges aren't falling down randomly). Corruption and nepotism isn't increasing from wherever it was before, and is generally low to begin with. The standard of living for lower income people is quite good (everyone has health insurance, healthcare is inexpensive, medical costs for children are all free, living costs are generally low). The middle class isn't shrinking, it's very strong. Government debt is high, but it's all internal (owed to the people), not external. There's a demographics pinch, but every developed nation (plus the US and Russia) has this right now, frequently even worse than here (just look at China and South Korea).

There are issues, like any place, (esp. the weak Yen currently) but not like the ones the US faces, nor on the same scale.
Sure, as long as it's available.
That is a very, very big difference.
It's as if you're responding to a different comment than the OP. GP talks about dealing with many years of hardship, no food, losing their house and car, and so on. Tolerating that and coming out stronger doesn't seem like doing "the bare minimum" to me.

There is no accountability for the ruling class including political actors in the US. I enjoy the freedoms this country provides but I see risk across the very fabric of society. We are drowning as a country and it's to allow certain sectors or companies to rise indefinitely to the top of the capital market. What solutions can we deploy?

I think I have some bad news for you. The media is incredibly biased with their own agenda. I think the only way you can truly account for that is to make up for it with multiple viewpoints. Maybe LLMs can write truly "unbiased" news articles when they stop hallucinating, but until then I think the best thing we can have is "transparent agendas."
At least I think I can tell when I am reading AI generated content, and stop reading and go somewhere else. Eventually though it'll get better to the point where it'll be hard to tell, but maybe then it's also good enough to be worth reading?
