Yes. Trials are adversarial- persuasion often matters as much or more than facts in formal legal writing. Blog posts presenting reason for prosecuting someone even moreso... Public perception, politics, etc etc etc.

The only way to give up smoking that I have seen is to change to vaping.

Yes vaping! that now evil alternative promoted by the tobacco industry as worse than smoking.

The problem with vaping is that there is no way to gradually reduce the nicotine content over the period of time until you are nicotine free.

All vaping juices are sold in predetermined nicotine levels. 0% 3%, 5% 10% 18%.
3% nicotine is very strong and I do not see anyway to move to 0% from 3% with ease.

Vape juices, like the reduction prescriptions used with heroin users, needs to be more incremental so peopole can reach the desired 0% nicotine levels and be free of nicotine.

nicotine content in store bought juices needs to be 0%, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5% and so on.

people who make their own vape juices are more successful at giving up smoking and vaping because they can change the percentage of nicotine to suit their needs.

> My Ubuntu /usr/sbin/sshd already links to libz, liblzma, liblz4 and libzstd.

Except for libz, they are only linked indirectly through libsystemd.

> I don't see why linking to libxz would be so outrageous

The XZ Utils library is called liblzma, not libxz.

Experience here in Canada has shown it's not nearly the massive market that people thought it was. Tons of stores with excess stock and people losing their shirts, production curtailed. Big speculative wave when legalization was announced, and then it collapsed. Take a look at e.g. Canopy Growth's stock price over 5 years and you can see how the hype wave went.

Yes and no. Aboriginal peoples world 'round have been displaced and slaughtered. The name conjures all meanings of the word, as is the nature of words, consequently there is a distinct and predictable reflex to associate this name with atrocity in a general sense.

Naming is hard. Offense unintended is often perceived as neglect or callousness. Names can change; history cannot.
The excess of often conflicting information, is the same as no information.
The WHO was quite late to the aerosol game…it certainly didn’t “overturn dogma”.

Here’s a paper from the NIH library (NLM) that discussed aerosol transmission for COVID from April 2022 (published in April 2022): COVID-19: the case for aerosol transmission

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8831082/

Here’s one from June 2021: Aerosol transmission of SARS-CoV-2 by children and adults during the COVID-19 pandemic

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33624927/

Here’s one from October 2020: Aerosol persistence in relation to possible transmission of SARS-CoV-2

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33154612/

In fact 70 hits for 2 year old and older published articles in the NLM database on aerosol transmission of COVID.

Why the blatant misinformation about WHO “leadership” on this topic? Reputation repair? Lipstick on a pig?

I wonder if the certificate has shown up anywhere.
OK, I give it a shot, though it's been a long time since I worked with polaritons.

Let's start from the beginning. If you look at a single atom, you find distinctive energy states for an electron, but in solid state physics these distinctive energy states blur into continua of possible state, called bands.

Usually you will find plots of such band structures in the momentum space and here the mass of the electrons come into play.
Juggling a bit with formulas one can see, that the curvature (second derivation) of the band structure is the (effective) mass of that particle.

So, is this a "real" mass? Well, who cares, but certainly the particles behave like they have this mass and that's also why polaritons are so interesting.

If you bombard your electrons with photons, so that they absorb/emit with an high enough rate (strong coupling), they stop behaving like electrons and instead behave like a combination of photons and electrons. We call this quasiparticle a polariton.

Now, to tie that all together, the photon has m=0 and since the polariton inherits some properties from it, it also has a drastically reduced effective mass.

The guys from this paper seem to have found a configuration, where the effective mass is not only small, but negative, which is surprising.

Statistically I'd expect more things to be done towards the end of any administrative period. First there is no way to finish thing in the beginning of their period, because that is where you get started, sharpen the tools, get your people in order etc. Then you start all kind of projects which may or may not take their time due to the complexity of the topics at hand. Then you finish some of them but the long running ones go on. Then the end nears and everybody realizes: "shit we need to wrap things up for real" and then whatever concerns may have been left are either fixed or ignored.

But the point is: if there are open concerns you would be stupid to finalize a project earlier than you would have to. On top of that comes political calculus, but I work in an european University where elections don't matter that much and our senate would also have a tendency to finish most things towards the end of an administrative period.

> The yen is at a 34-year low against the U.S. dollar

I live in Japan and this has happened so quickly it's been stunning. While not much has changed domestically so far, I am hearing and starting to see foreign people question whether they could work and live here long term if it stays like this. It's fine if you are earning USD and visiting Japan (wow there are so many tourists this year) but if your salary is priced in JPY and you plan to retire in the US, it's basically impossible right now.

My understanding is that most of the pain in JPY is being caused by carry trades by the financial sector. Because they are very common currencies and most traders right now believe that both the US and JP are stuck with a wide spread in interest rates... you can borrow JPY and invest in USD and make 4-5% on it.

As an aside, I also wish we didn't use the terms strong/weak for currencies because it carries a good/bad connotation. It's just high/low and there are pros/cons to each.

You are describing screen controls which should be dedicated physical controls.

Controlling shifting, headlights, wipers from screen controls gets in the way of you being a good driver.

In my driving experience, I have required dedicated controls for these functions.

Ever get mud on windshield? wiper fluid squirt switch.

Over had to slow down or speed up wipers? interval switch.

Ever had to turn on headlights due to signs requiring them? headlight switch

ever had to turn off headlights to prevent blinding someone sitting inside a restaurant you're parking in front of?

Ever had to flash headlights during the day to signal oncoming cars? headlight switch on/off

flashing high beams is not necessarily what you want to do. might be something you don't want to do.

I figure the only reason hazard lights are a dedicated switch is because the law requires it. tesla puts the switch in stupid places though.

(I like tesla by the way, I just disagree with their direction/decisions when it comes to dedicated controls)
I didn't I'm afraid, but it was just like building any other computer, except repinning the 24pin ATX connector for the motherboard as it uses a 4 pin connection only (still Molex branded).
If you can make do with a more limited feature set, I'd properly go with a CSS alternative, rather than using Lilypond (depending on your environment and use case). Lilypond is fairly complicated and not without security risk and have been used as an attack vector due to it being able to embed Postscript.

About 50% of truckers in the US are owner operators, meaning about half of all truckers on the road own their truck and as such buy (electric) trucks and quote for jobs.

Companies are in the business of making money, if a private contractor is cheaper (and faster) than their in-house logistics who do you think is going to be axed?
While you’re technically correct, I don’t think it captures the spirit of my comment.

Modern (in comparison) CPUs contain instructions to aid with performance, such as AES extensions. If you’re doing everything in software then you’ll be limited to the older ciphers, most of which might not even be supported by modern sites given TLS1.3 is the recommendation. For example OpenSSL doesn’t support RC and AES will benchmark much slower on CPUs (when compared with RC) without AES instructions and smaller L1 cache.

Sure you could workaround that by supplementing cache with writing to persistent storage and just throwing more time at the problem. But then you’re looking at days or even weeks just to complete the handshake, let alone pulling an HTML content. By which point the novelty of getting an 8088 online would long since have worn off.

So to say TLS wouldn’t be fast is an understatement. Calling it an understatement is itself an understatement :)

If you remove TLS from the equation things get dramatically simpler. I’ve got a 64k 8bit micro (Amstrad CPC 464) with a WiFi adapter. The adapter handles the wireless protocols but beyond that I wrote a very simple HTML browser. Though most other similar projects I’ve seen have used a Raspberry Pi hooked up via serial to provide offloading. But that’s basically turning your 8bit Micro into a dumb terminal and thus feels somewhat like cheating.

I don't know what your sudo does, but mine requires the --preserve-env flag if you want the new process to have access to all your environment variables.

The thing you're saying is going to be an endless source of problems should already be an endless source of problems! (And I think I've been briefly confused by some missing environment variable once or twice so far.)
I don't think that matters. If a tool isn't as good as the leading closed source commercial offering there are still good reasons to use it - you might not get enough value to make it worth paying, using open source might be an ethical choice, the open version might still be good enough, and so on.

It's not like there aren't commercial design tools other than Figma either. People choose to use and pay for those tools instead of Figma. The idea that there's one 'industry standard' choice and everything else is wrong is obviously nonsense. Having an OSS option as well is only a good thing.
Ask HN: How to start a company with an open source alternative of a popular SaaS
Hey HN. Let's say I have built an open-source alternative of a popular SaaS product. The product itself is quite well-known and widely used. For this example, let's say it's Notion. How can I actually start a company around it? The software I built has the following qualities:

- The output (as in what you actually build with the product, in this case, Notion pages) is of VERY similar quality to Notion. For instance, if you showed it some people, they would be immediately sure that it was built using Notion.

- The method of creating the output is completely different. In the case of my open-source software, the approach is local and file-driven, vs using a clunky web app.

- I want to fully open-source the software on GitHub once it is complete, or at least close to complete.

- In some cases, the output can be more flexible and better in performance.

Please note, it's not a Notion alternative, but it makes explaining easier. What would you do here? How do I actually start building a business around this?

On the other hand, the same "technical progress" (if we're putting machine learning, deforestation, and mining in the same bag) gave you medicine, which turns many otherwise deadly diseases into inconveniences and allows you to work less than 12 hrs/7 days per week to not die from hunger in a large portion of the world. A few hundred years ago, unless you were born into the lucky 0.01% of the ruling population, working from dawn to sunset was the norm for a lot more people than now.

I'm not assuming that something 10k x better than GPT-4 will be good or bad; I don't know. I was just curious what exactly to be worried about. I think in the current state, LLMs are already advanced enough for bad uses like article generation for SEO, spam, scams, etc., and I wonder if an order of magnitude better model would allow for something worse.
Yes, the word "Wanlanid" came from a Thai word that means "a little bit", as the product aims to encourage people to improve themselves every day by reading or listening to a book summary.
Yes, I know. I'm asking why something that is sometimes sexualized the victim of censors? The face-value answer is obvious of course, in that the logic of something that is sexualized must be a sexual thing and therefore should be censored. But I'm making a broader point about the absurdity of the situation. Some people sexualize feet. So what, they're an objectively non-sexual, critical functional part of the body. And as was noted above, are often involved in various non-sexual ceremonies.

So, I guess my question remains the same. Feet are sometimes sexualized. So what?
Ironically, thats the juvenile take.

The President can’t unilaterally do anything on this. Congress still doesn't have the votes - in either party. The courts couldn’t. Nor HHS, or AG/DOJ and the DEA. The latter two didn’t and dont harbor favorable views of rescheduling. The DEA process merely kickstarts another process, that is uncontested but slow.

That doesn't preclude the reality of political machinations for someones remaining in office. But its disingenuous to suggest its bread and circuses only.
The saddest thing is that people rush to vote and be lied to by politicians that spend 3.5 years bickering, getting courted by lobbyists and ignoring all their pledges to the people.

We call it democracy, proudly wear pins saying "I Voted!" and shame on you if you ever criticize it.
I'm not sure how I feel about Blender, the UI in the older versions was notoriously niche if not outright confusing. Here's a video comparing the versions in a simple example task: https://youtu.be/Vz_GxPMActM

Whatever caused it to succeed and catch enough attention to be continuously improved, I'm thankful for that. Same as with game engines like Godot and other similar FOSS projects, maybe even LibreOffice not dying like OpenOffice did, though that's a whole tale in of itself. Actually, I'll similarly celebrate improvements in proprietary software, too.

Then again, I still think that Inkscape and some of the other software that gets touted as good is actually not very usable, so I'm a bit opinionated.
I'm not sure what exactly you mean by acknowledgement, but here are some counterexamples:

- A proposal for sum types by a Go team member: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/57644

- The community proposal with some comments from the Go team: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/19412

Here are some excerpts from the latest Go survey [1]:

- "The top responses in the closed-form were learning how to write Go effectively (15%) and the verbosity of error handling (13%)."

- "The most common response mentioned Go’s type system, and often asked specifically for enums, option types, or sum types in Go."

I think the problem is not the lack of will on the part of the Go team, but rather that these issues are not easy to fix in a way that fits the language and doesn't cause too many issues with backwards compatibility.

I think it is a good idea.

Dental treatment here in the UK is obscenely expensive.

Some of my friends pay to go to foreign countries to have their teeth work done.

Lithuania is currently popular with my friends. Though most european countries have similar services.

Highly trained dentists in private practice is 75% cheaper than here in the UK.

Don't you think your own example contradicts your premise? People have radically different biases. And so manufacturing consent requires the elimination of dissenting views, yet the internet specifically enables those views to flourish. For instance I had absolutely no idea what you were talking about with regards to Bin Laden, yet 30 seconds later I was reading a letter he wrote that there have apparently been widespread efforts to try to censor.

Manufacturing consent in this context would require the gradual but systematic elimination of every major platform and medium that might publish narratives contrary to the desired one, and that's simply not possible. And even if it were, that clearly artificial homogeneity would itself drive distrust. See the USSR where the government not only directly controlled literally every single medium for communication, but also strictly ideologically filtered for admittance (or exit) from the country. Nonetheless this led to widespread jokes like, "Why do we have two newspapers, Pravda (meaning truth) and Novesti (meaning news)? Well that's because there's no news in the truth, and no truth in the news."

So we can even go one step further and say that to manufacture consent you need to not only eliminate all dissenting views, but you also need to somehow hide that from your public and make them believe that what they are reading is free to diverge from the official narrative. Chomsky, of course, hit on this exact nuance with his famous quote, "The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum..." But now a days you can no longer limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, because with the internet you can find communities where basically any view, no matter how fringe, is the norm.
SOTA?
Seems like the best way to monetize this. Doubt anyone will regularly pay for the website and banner ads are annoying. Buying a VPN is the logical next step if you find a movie in a different country, might be nice to have multiple affiliate links but this seems like a win-win, it makes it easier to get a VPN for someone who isn't too familiar and the creator earns a bit for their work.
I continue to see AI as a tool for developers rather than a replacement. It enables developers to do their job better, but wouldn’t cut it as a standalone developer.
Actually, that would be fantastic for NVIDIA shares;

1. A new architecture would make all/most of these upcoming Transformer accelerators obsolete => back to GPUs.

2. Higher performance LLMs on GPUs => we can speed up LLMs with 1T+ parameters. So, LLMs become more useful, so more of GPUs would be purchased.

Regarding "otherwise they'll just move" - yes it's a collective action problem. But usually the solution to these is not just to give up, if it's a big problem. The international policy approach is usually to DTRT at home and work on treaties internationally (or other policy tools, stick and carrot etc).

Also, from a moral philosophy point of view, "this is wrong but if we don't do it, someone else will collect the profits and the bad thing will happen anyway - hence we'll do this wrong thing" is not sound. Applied generally it would lead to a lot of bad stuff (moral race to the bottom).
sudo is not installed by default on many distros (e.g. if you give a root password on Debian install, then sudo is not installed, but if you don't, it is so you can admin the system), so unless systemd introduces something to break sudo, I don't think it'll go away (it just may get bumped down the list of important packages). su seems to come from https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/, which is all the truly core stuff, and I don't see su disappearing from there.
Sadly for them, I don't know any of their names, couldn't care who they are, and their protest will vanish from the news cycle in a few hours ... forever.

I suspect this is the same for everyone, even those who may be discussing Google's response.

So they may have wanted a "me me me" response, or they may have legitimately wanted to raise awareness, but it's a pretty large fail for a now strongly narrowed career path.
Weirdly, there is also a premium on US multinationals.

When you compare dividends+buybacks from UK/French/German companies to US companies, expected returns over 10years, and stock price, excluding "growth" companies (Tesla, netflix, Uber), you can see a 10 to 20% premium. Is it stability priced in?
