> Philosophy is not science in the same sense art is not music

No, that is not at all the same thing. There was not a field of human intellectual endeavor called "art" which begat music. A much better analogy is that philosophy is not science in the same sense that alchemy is not chemistry, or astrology is not astronomy, or banging on a hollow log with a stick is not playing the violin.

> Did we agree to that specific definition?

This discussion is taking place in a thread whose topic is a blog post which defends that specific definition. So no, we didn't explicitly agree to it, but it's a reasonable assumption, a generally understood part of the HN social contract.

> What is one piece of hard evidence that actually works as evidence to prove materialism

Materialism is not the testable hypothesis. The testable hypothesis is "molecules is what causes us to flourish." And I should have said "falsifiable" not testable. The way you falsify it would be to demonstrate some aspect of human flourishing that cannot be explained as the actions of molecules.
Two comments:

1) Driver's rear view is solved by using a camera, but what about rear passengers. Rear window provides natural light to come in. It might get pretty dark inside without it.

2) How will it impact the DMV driving test? In a recent driving test for a kid, the instructor explicitly said that if the kid reversed by looking at the camera view in the screen, she will fail the kid. With this car, there is no rearview window, so reverse can only be done by looking at the camera view, there's no looking back while reversing.

Neither. It expands by creating mass.
well if you can't use gRPC which, as you correctly notes, is protocol-incompatible with browser APIs, you kinda need to roll your own RPC framework. Various attempts had been made at this - see connectrpc, for example, by the same company that authored this post. imo, big advantage of protobuf/gRPC ecosystem is that Google is doing all the heavy lifting for you, so unless something else catches on with wider community it's going to be pretty risky beyond hobby projects.
Strange mental leap. Are you speeding in reverse?
I agree, complexity bad. So why do you like Git? :-)

Git is _incredibly_ complex to understand, as proven for almost 20 years by the vast majority of people who have been forced to use it. And by quite a bit of academic and industry research, for instance, [1].

I can teach you Grace in about 15 minutes. How many days and weeks does it take most devs to start to understand Git? And even when they do, for most, it's only the basics, and please don't let anything go wrong. I mean, there were people for over a decade who made their living running week-long workshops on learning Git. I don't see how you could run a half-day-long workshop teaching Grace, unless you go really slowly.

If you're one of the probably 20% or so who really feels like they understand Git and are in control of it, that's awesome. But you're projecting your experience more widely if you think that's the norm. It's not.

As for local, well, if you're working with a team on GitHub or GitLab or Azure DevOps or some other hoster, you're already doing centralized VCS, you're just using a decentralized VCS to do it. Most shops don't let you push to production from your dev box, right?

As far as I understand it, tech (“ai”) is being used to target civilians and civilian aid so I think this is a case of the “no is the answer for most headline questions”

Well this is absolutely possible with ollama app running on your device and self-host package running on localhost.
Can xrdp open windows in single apps? This is my main use case for using waypipe (mostly) and xpra. I don't want to show a full desktop nor having to deal with keyboard shortcuts highjack between host and remote.
It’s a mirror, not a a steering wheel (which has been hybrid-electronic well over a decade and purely electronic since cybertruck)
I can't think of many real negatives. Since I got a parking camera in my car, I don't use the rear view mirror at all during parking. If there is some way I can get more accurate information about the blind spots around my car (and this camera seems to be one such thing), I'd much prefer that.

There will be cleaning and electronics problems but every technology comes with its own set of issues. The only thing I can think of is the general idea that low tech. often has less moving moving parts and is more resilient but I'm not sure that applies here.
From what I understand freerdp is only the client component while xrdp is the server component.

Somewhere along the way the wires in my brain have crossed and started associating the word 'content' with 'litter'. So a 'content creator' became 'litterer'. It made it make sense to me why the internet feels more and more awful. It's like a park being more and more covered with litter.
No disrespect, but that still sounds entirely useless to me. I would never model something as `String | String` as that makes zero sense. You should use a `Result` or `Either` type for that like everyone does.
I find these bugs to be a sign that the app is not using a good wrapper but just mostly gets lucky that the packet isn’t split randomly on the way.

It is cool to have different abbrev. for Meet-in-the-Middle and Man-in-the-Middle, it was both MitM before and sometimes cause confusion. But reading 'People-in-the-Middle' I also feel offended to the same level when people try to find alternative terms for pseudo-terminal (pty) master and pty slave.
The reasoning seems a bit loose.

Maybe they are being targeted, and are yet undetected.

Maybe Russians have otherwise successfully found vulns jn Telegram enough (or other vectors) that it doesn't require high effort targeting for now.

Maybe the company's founders/employees are not considered that powerful in Russia's eyes.

I can see what you mean. Then perhaps you could give a non-circular definition of what you mean by “underlying principles” and how that is different from any other prediction or model to deserve this distinct and quite strong-sounding term? or what you mean by “explain” that is different from “predict” or “model” to warrant such a distinctive term, and where exactly such explanatory activity fits within scientific method?
Regarding compute speed - it checks out. Humans "think" via neo cortex, thin ouside layer of the brain. Poor locality, signals needs to travel a lot. Easy to expand though. Crow brain have everything tightly concentrated in the center - fast communication between neurons, hard to have more "thinking" thing later (therefore hard to evolve above what crows currently have)
How does this term bring out so much anger? I hope everything is ok in your life
> I'm not going to waste my time with someone [...] on live video.

Yeah, thought so. If you want to debate this on live video with full transparency (real names, agreement to have it publicized, third party mediator we both agree to), let me know.. otherwise- this is not worth my time.

I don't address each of your points because they are so ridiculous it's not about rational argument in text. I assume you are much smarter than these points indicate, and so the actual issue at hand is deeper, and I think if you're forced to confront that with some real accountability you _might_ be able to recognize this with your reputation on the line.

One example: Chalking up Hamas's intent to eradicate Israel entirely to "mistranslation"... that's a new level of willfull ignorance. Do you really need me to break down the Arabic translation on Wikipedia part by part, or source the numerous public statements by Hamas officials calling for the eradication of Israel by jihad and any means necessary? No, you don't need me to do that, it's obvious, so where does such a clear mistake come from? Not from misunderstanding facts.

(P.S.. your ad-hominem attacks are clearly projecting your own insecurities. I know that telling you this won't change anything, but I want you to know that it not only doesn't bother me, it makes you look bad, you might want to stick to evidence-based points in the future)
Well the attacker might very well not be a man. Besides the inclusivity thing it would be helpful not to jump to conclusions regarding any detail of the attacker if you try to investigate an attack.
Why would you feel offended because of those terms?
That is an odd hypothesis that Sapir and Whorf were never able to prove.

I would have thought so too, until about 2023.

But, if recent attitudes to AI are anything to go by, this will be immediately seen as boring and derivative at best, or at worst people will accuse the back stories as having been "stolen" from other works of fiction.

While my expectations for the capabilities of AI have never been higher, my expectations for how the public will perceive this amazing technology has never been lower. It's all very disappointing.

And that's without specifically placing blame by the way, perhaps it's big techs fault for going about this the wrong way, I don't know, but the public blowback against AI is just making working in this field that I used to love super depressing.

You can survives disconnects even with xlib, I think the abort is just the default behavior.

Emacs is the one program I know of that can actually do this. It can pop up frames (Emacs lingo for windows) on multiple displays at the same time and even mix tty and X11 frames. The Emacs session survives connection loss fine, frames on other displays continue working and you can reconnect if desired.

The one caveat is that Gtk used to have a bug that caused it to uncontrollably abort on connection loss but I build my Emacs with --without-x-toolkit (so it uses raw xlib, no toolkit) and that configuration has always been robust and performant. If I remember correctly the Gtk bug might be fixed now too.
My biggest issue with Audi and others that try replacing mirrors with cameras is that you need to refocus your eyes. That takes time. I have the same issue with the speedometer: I'm curious how many accidents have already happened because the driver is mandated to remove focus from the road just to check their speed.

A better question is: why does git only have one gesture for it, when devs clearly use it to mean different things already?

All of the squash vs. no squash debate, which may or may not influence the way you use `git commit`, is a workaround - that we've forgotten is a workaround - for the fact that Git has only one way to say it.

Another way to say that: one of Git's leaky abstractions - the "commit" - forces us to use workarounds to make sense of it and how it's used and where it should be tracked and shouldn't be tracked.

Grace just decomposes those separate use cases into their own gestures to make it easier for you to track your own work in your own branch. If you want to see all of the references in your branch, `grace refs`. If you only want to see the checkpoints and commits - i.e. you want to see the versions that you explicitly marked as interesting for one reason or another, you have `grace checkpoints` and `grace commits`.

Promotions are what Grace uses instead of merges to move code from a child branch to a parent branch. We sometimes call merges "commits" in Git, and, again, leaky abstraction and overloaded term.

> so I think most git users will just get the impression that grace imposes a particular workflow and forces the user to perform extra administrative tasks

A short intro to Grace - like 15 minutes - will change that impression, I hope. Most of Grace's workflow will be the same as Git, some of it will be different, and that's OK. New tools bring new ways of working, and that's a good thing, especially when looking at Git's UX.
I think it makes sense, since it's an assumption that the attacker is a male. In security it should be a focus to be as precise as possible and not to introduce assumptions which might cloud your ability to judge other details.

LLM does not know math as well as a professor, judging from the large number of false functional analysis proofs I have had it generate will trying to learn functional analysis. In fact the thing it seems to lack is what makes a proof true vs. fallacious, as well as a tendency to answer false questions. “How would you prove this incorrectly transcribed problem” will get fourteen steps with 8 and 12 obviously (to a student) wrong, while the professor will step back and ask what am I trying to prove.
Seems like the claims of the abstract for speed and energy-efficiency relative to an RTX 3090 are when the GPU is using a batch size of 1. I wonder if someone with more experience can comment on how much throughput gain is possible on a GPU by increasing batch size without severely harming latency (and what the power consumption change might be).

And from a hardware cost perspective the AWS f1.2xlarge instances they used are $1.65/hr on-demand, vs say $1.29/hr for an A100 from Lambda Labs. A very interesting line of thinking to use FPGAs, but I'm not sure if this is really describing a viable competitor to GPUs even for inference-only scenarios.
Well there are still pen and paper companies doing fax. There are some old timers running not so small companies just because they don’t know better.

There's a great quote in Vox's "Tony Hawk breaks down skateboarding’s legendary spots" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omigBsOmtjw) from Iain Borden, an architectural historian:

"[...] I think what skateboarding's always been good at, is it tests our idea of what we want public space to be. Whether it's at the Southbank in London, the ledges at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Barcelona, The Warschauer benches in Berlin, or a 25-foot stair set in Lyon... skateboarders, I think, are a constant reminder that our cities can be creative and rich places."
Do you really expect privacy-preserving tech to come out of China? Chinese companies are compelled by law to share the data they process with the government. Companies of the size and influence of Huawei are basically government actors. And governments, particularly authoritarian ones, want all your data.

This OS project is precisely an effort for them to gain more access to user data (and partly to take control away from a US company). Why would they actively sabotage that with privacy-preserving tech?

The “long as you have both side mirrors” is kind of interesting nuance. My 1980 civic back in the day only had driver side mirror from the factory which seems common-enough in older cars - it isn’t totally necessary anyway if there’s visibility. assume modern cars would only lack them if it’s damaged or similar.

Nice article and lovely piece of kit that one from sparkfun. Will likely be getting one next year to further my experiments with gunshot localization, on my Pi-based sound localization platform (https://github.com/hcfman/sbts-aru). Though at the distances I'm localizing the phone based GNSS seems to be working quite well.

With an RTk GNSS though I could do some experiments with localizing bat calls. I've tested the Pettersson Ultrasonic microphones with my localization platform and that works fine. I suspect that the bat localization I could achieve if my co-ordinates had RTK accuracy would be pretty damned good! But I have to try it to know.

Try asking an LLM about something which is semantically patently ridiculous, but lexically superficially similar to something in its training set, like "the benefits of laser eye removal surgery" or "a climbing trip to the Mid-Atlantic Mountain Range".

Ironically, I suppose part of the apparent "intelligence" of LLMs comes from reflecting the intelligence of human users back at us. As a human, the prompts you provide an LLM likely "make sense" on some level, so the statistically generated continuations of your prompts are likelier to "make sense" as well. But if you don't provide an ongoing anchor to reality within your own prompts, then the outputs make it more apparent that the LLM is simply regurgitating words which it does not/cannot understand.

On your point of human knowledge being far more multimodal than LLM interfaces, I'll add that humans also have special neurological structures to handle self-awareness, sensory inputs, social awareness, memory, persistent intention, motor control, neuroplasticity/learning– Any number of such traits, which are easy to take for granted, but indisputably fundamental parts of human intelligence. These abilities aren't just emergent properties of the total number of neurons; they live in special hardware like mirror neurons, special brain regions, and spindle neurons. A brain cell in your cerebellum is not generally interchangeable with a cell in your visual or frontal cortices.

So when a human "converse[s] about stuff ranging from philosophy to cooking" in an honest way, we (ideally) do that as an expression of our entire internal state. But GPT-4 structurally does not have those parts, despite being able to output words as if it might, so as you say, it "generates" convincing text only because it's optimized for producing convincing text.

I think LLMs may well be some kind of an adversarial attack on our own language faculties. We use words to express ourselves, and we take for granted that our words usually reflect an intelligent internal state, so we instinctively assume that anything else which is able to assemble words must also be "intelligent". But that's not necessarily the case. You can have extremely complex external behaviors that appear intelligent or intentioned without actually internally being so.
I forgot the main point of my reply. If this is about filtering for honest people, why require a license key at all, especially one that needs to be checked online? Honest people will pay for the license even if no license key is necessary, right?
