The problem is embedding a browser into an app that may not maintain the same security boundaries as a “proper” web browser.
Do you have a reference for that?

One thing that seems obvious, but hasn't been repeated enough IMHO is that injecting more energy (heat) into a chaotic system (climate), won't simply make the average energy (temperature) higher BUT will also proportionally strenghten the chaotic fluctuations (disasters).
Hi Fran!

I would pay for a feature like this, but only if it actually provides real value. I've found AI itinerary planners like these one to help slightly in getting suggestions, but I still have to spend lots of hours to research and plan myself.

What would be valuable for me is for the AI to also provide me with:
- links to book flight tickets that are cheapest and shortest.
- links to book hotel accommodations that actually fit my preference
- provide itinerary that also fits my preference, in terms of interest and feasibility (not too far away/the whole itinerary is planned around staying and moving to attractions I want to see)

I tried generating an itinerary, but the generated itinerary just wasn't it.

It would also be good to be able to iterate on the itinerary with the AI because I don't think it's feasible to get a perfect itinerary from a single prompt.

Here's an idea how this might be more easily solved: Have the UI ask you step by step regarding your accommodation preferences, budget, top attractions you're interested in seeing and only then create an itinerary that is tailored to your preferences.

Good luck!
What is wrong with that accepted answer?
Knowing many professional archaeologists, I have no idea what you're talking about.
The model for creators to make a living after AI hoovers everything up is simple: it's called revolution. You pull up on the wealthy person, and you take ownership of their AI, and make it free and open source for all. Then the AI production system can provide for any quality of life needs, and you no longer have to do any art for any reason other than you enjoy it.

Remember, art is fundamentally worthless bullshit that we do because life is miserable and terrifying, and we're obsessive miserable bastards. There's no reason to make it a living, except to enslave artists to the whims of the wealthy. We can just take from the wealthy, instead.

Seize the means of production from capitalists, and you'll be free to be make art without the added misery of having to please bastards with too much money and no real love of the process of art. But continue defining art as having to produce revenue and support the living of artists, and you're just fighting for continued slavery at the hands of the wealthy. I say seize the means instead, using extreme measures if necessary.

"Fallout" Imagines What It Would Be Like If Cold War Consumerism Never Ended
interesting you bring developed countries and not developing countries into the picture here first. Is it because such large scale disasters like the cyclones you mention tend to hit US more than any developing nations?

I ask because I hypothesize that the impact of these raising temperatures will be seen more widely and adversely in parts of developing countries given their population density and inability to address the same.
Paper is still very much a thing in business and office work. PDFs allowing a near perfect translation between computer monitor and paper is an absolutely critical piece of technological infrastructure.
This is hysterical.
The whole point of Replicants is that they look exactly like humans in person. Even if we assume AI and robotics advance 100 times or more in the next 10 years to allow the technical part of this, we are not even close to any makeup and prosthetics tech that could make a robot even slightly resemble a human in-person.

And I have to mention, Tesla robots are way behind the competition, it's not even clear if their robot does anything really on its own, given how much they fake their videos of it with "creative" editing.
this is awesome, and some excellent eye-bleach against the 3M article I just read.
YouTube made $30B in revenue last year. 10% of Alphabet’s revenue.

Google services margin is around 30%. Even if YT is burning money they are likely making $5B in profit. They don’t report profit by income streams.

Google was one of the first internet scale companies with likely 10s of millions of servers and fiber that they own around the world.

They are also doing quite well in Cloud. Not as well as Azure and AWS but that division is growing.

At this point, something like Tiktok with a better sticky algorithm is the way to beat Google.

One of my mistakes was thinking Facebook will be crushed by Google.

Plenty of blind spots when you’re a big ship like Google.
China is responsible for 70% of new coal power plant construction, meanwhile greenhouse gas output in the US (whether measured per capital, against income, against gdp, or against fuel consumption) has been dropping for almost 30 years.

What demos would you like to see? I have my own agent running on its own Linux system. I reckon it's capable of doing most office work in theory, if you have the budget. On my budget it's a lot more constrained, and often needs a human in the loop to achieve more complex goal. But I'd like to canvas for suggestions for tests I can throw at it.

If get an interesting request, I will try and record its attempt. But it's expensive - in the order of a $1 a prompt.
You're hiring because you've got a bit more work than you have people for. You're probably under a bit of stress, timelines are a bit tight.

Do you want someone who has strong evidence of job-hopping, and believe they will commit more time than average to your environment, on the basis that the job hopping is due to high performance?

Or do you want someone who's going to stick around a bit longer, on the basis that much of the value of someone in a job is actually domain knowledge specific to the business and the code, rather than transferrable skills?

When I see a lot of job hopping on a CV, I tend not to take a chance. Those folks haven't shown evidence of investing in non-transferrable knowledge and processes. They might have high performance transferrable skills, but chances are they'll want to change how things are done, then not stick around to see them all the way through.
Honest question: why do you feel conflicted about artists monetizing their work through NFTs?

Buyers know exactly what they're getting and artists get a huge cut of the sales (intermediaries usually take a 1-2% fee). They also get royalties on secondary market sales after the initial "print" happens.

Maybe the current generation grew up on way too many vivid SF movies. And their intuitions are that we should know it enough already to wing it on the large parts.
Reasonable to assume that if I have a weapon that can destroy a civilization, others may have it too. Assuming also they have the similar risk calculus, it leans towards hiding and then nuking when either gets afraid enough. You can't do much but hope the other side is not more advance that you and can mitigate the attack.

It seems like a big stretch to assume aliens are going to share ideas of liberal democracy like fairness/cooperation etc (which are fairly recent) when there are groups of humans who do not
Thanks for the info. Actually it doesn't. We seldom reboot our servers. We use the lights-out infrastructure provided by servers if needed (the BMC thingy).
Bioaccumulatrion of PFOAs mainly occurs in the liver, kidneys, and blood [0]

Maybe filtering blood would help other tissue by proxy, allowing the blood to hold more? but from what I understand PFOA doesn't just hang around in those organs inert, it binds to proteins which is why it can cause problems.

Also consider that we probably accumulate most of this through ingestion, since it's in pretty much all food and water, but to differing concentrations. So we are constantly consuming this stuff in tiny quantities, but it's always there. People worry about things like teflon in non-stick pans and other products, but that's a product of PFOAs, i.e they were manufactured using them, they are not themselves PFOAs and do not readily break down into them just by handling them (you have to heat your pan to >250c roughly to get it to start vaporising the teflon into an aerosolised PFOA. So while the firefighting foam story is awful, most products are not themselves toxic, the real danger is in what the manufacturing processes has already released into the environment and is now part of the global food chain (particularly in sea food).

In other words, it doesn't matter what you buy or use (personally at least), and we are all eating and drinking it. Any kind of blood filtering would be a continuous process, and it's not clear how effective it would be considering one of the primary routes to exposure is through ingestion, and how it readily binds to and disrupts various tissues in the body.

I suspect anything that would help substantially reverse the process in the human body would need to be more active, e.g a drug that interacted with the PFOA either to render it harmless or reduce it's "elimination half life" (currently thought to be 3 years) to allow it to be released faster than we accumulate it.

IPMI serial console has its own buffer, it doesn't usually do flow control all the way to the other side.

I have seen serial console slow things down when configured for flow control on the wrong port though. As well as saving a significant portion of boot up time by reducing logging to vga on servers with particularly slow cards (helped everywhere, but we had a new batch of severs that were much slower than the old ones... too long ago for me to remember details though)

You deserve to lose it. Not everyone gets it back.
The thing that truly made me realise just how fucked we are is when the Guardian sent out a survey to the scientists behind the IPCC report. About half of them responded:

> 77% of respondents believe global temperatures will reach at least 2.5C above preindustrial levels, a devastating degree of heating;

> almost half – 42% – think it will be more than 3C;

> only 6% think the 1.5C limit will be achieved.

Right. But you also get a recent one if you just use the Mozilla PPA, without snap. Debian sid also ships 126, and I assume the fix should be backported to Firefox LTS, which is used by stable.

I don't see the relevance of snap here.
It makes the people with arrest warrants much less welcome to visit other countries. While they still may not actually arrest a leader of state many countries would say no to a visit to not risk a media scandal by having an accused war criminal visit.

I worry about my shutter count like I worry about my HN points...I don't. If the shutter was to fail from "too many" clicks, it can replaced. It's not the end of the world. There are people that will point out that you can die every time you drive your car, but does that prevent you from driving your car? I easily have over 150k (I don't have the right cable/adapters available at the moment to confirm the number USB-C to USB-mini) to get actual number. Even if the shutter were to fail, I'd just have it replaced for less than the price of a new body.
It's easy to miss how clever the Apollo mission architecture was.

The moon is not so far away in terms of distance but it is very far away in terms of Δv because, not least, you have to land propulsively because there is no atmosphere to slow you down.

Trips to some near-Earth asteroids are easier than the lunar surface, Mars and Venus aren't that much harder because in any of those cases the Moon's gravity can be helpful.

I wont, in europe its pretty much impossible to do that identity theft scam.

Someone taking cash off my debit card would need to do it via 3d secure and me approving it via phone.

Someone doing this via check in a bank would get them laughed off... I'm not sure people even know what those are still.

Someone trying to use my identity to withdraw money at a bank agency... they'd need an inside man and police would catch that idiot on complaint... plus since corona going to bank agency is via appointment...

I can also complain to government entities if banks wont help, that would lodge official complaint from consumer protection agency and they need to do due diligence to not get fined...

The problem with brutalism is that it is literally inhuman - it creates an environment in which humans do not fit.

So in theory, nature could help, because humans feel that they fit in natural environments. But in practice, at least in the photos in the article, it doesn't work, because the nature doesn't look like it belongs there either. It looks either like weeds growing through cracks, or "tacked on", ineffectively trying to make you ignore the ugliness.
I had no idea they sounded alike, not really knowing (or caring) what Scarlett sounds like. I didn't think her voice was part of her celebrity status...

However, I did prefer Sky above the other voices. It didn't come across as seductive or flirty to me, just something that sounded close to the Google Assistant or Alexa. "Neutrally approachable" is how I'd put it, like a good receptionist, a mix of casual warmth and surface level concern. Shrug. I hope they bring her back soon.
Battle of Actium
It seems that the adventurers who assassinated Julius Caesar were not as politically astute as the military prowess they displayed in assassinating Caesar.
After the assassination of Julius Caesar, a civil war began between his supporters on one side and the republicans who assassinated Julius Caesar on the other.
Within hours of his burial, there was unrest in Rome, a great city of more than a million people, a number that would have been enormous two thousand years ago.
After the assassination of Julius Caesar, who was stabbed 60 times leading to his death at the hands of members of the Senate led by Brutus and Cassius, the conspirators were unable to restore the Roman Republic, However, Julius Caesar's aides Gaius Octavius Thurinus ( Julius Caesar's nephew ), Marcus Lepidus, and Mark Antony succeeded in avenging the killers and rising to rule Rome.
There are about 400 senators among about 900 members and two thousand landowners along the length and breadth of Rome who can be considered enemies of the empire and involved in secret with Brutus and Cassius.
Marcus Antonius and Gaius Octavius led an army of several thousand soldiers to fight the killers of Julius Caesar They already had a formidable military force, but the Roman duo alliance decided the battle in the Battle of Philippi on the outskirts of Rome and Brutus and Cassius were killed.
Most of the conspirators who assassinated Caesar were killed, and Octavius and his associates were able to take control of the Roman state and establish a triumvirate.
Octavius soon got rid of Marcus Lepidus by exiling him out of the country and Rome remained ruled by the two friends Octavius and Mark Antony.
But what will happen is that many countries would say no to official visits.

And by calling it identity theft instead of bank fraud, the reverse effect is had on the common perception of who has responsibility when dealing with an incident. You can have your “””identity stolen””” at a bank without an ounce of carelessness on your end.

Apollo was a development and technical marvel. I don't think I would necessarily consider it done in an "optimal way" except for optimizing for time at great expense.

Artemis certainly isn't fiscally optimal either, mostly driven by a bunch of stipulations in their budget placed there by senators from states where all of these Shuttle-derived parts are built.

> Only time will tell if either of these two missions were actually worth it.

No time required, we already know the answer: neither of these two goals is worth the enormeous pile of resources burned to achive it.

1. A permanent human presence on the moon serves what purpose exactly that Robots cannot do? If we want to set up shop there: Why not send robots and an automatic laboratory-repair-bay? It's the moon, we can even remote control the damn things with only 2 seconds latency! What excatly are humans supposed to do there, that robots cannot?

2. Go ask women in underpaid care work and people of color in underserved communities, what they think would benefit them, and the general sense of equality, more: Hundreds of billions of dollars poured into improving social services like adequate pensions for carework, childcare, better supervision programs against discrimination in the workplace, better educational systems, etc. OR hundreds of billions of dollars burned by space-billionaires to let some old politician say "We did it!" at a press conference?

> There is exactly ONE reason why Apollo was manned by people instead of robots: Because computers, electronics and robotics in the 60s were not up to the task. If todays tech existed back then, I would bet the Apollo rocket would have had exactly one passenger, and that would have been the Lunar Roving vehicle.

The Soviet Union did send a rover. Anyway, the science wasn't worth it and the project was driven by romantics who thought that it was the duty of mankind to explore. Putting men on the Moon was the real point of it.

Well the non developed countries have suffered from these for the better part of few decades and nobody cares. My reasoning is that this happening to a developed nation would be significantly more widespread as this requires global action.

Not to mention that non developed nations tend to have other issues they're trying to solve and climate change is not even on their list (except for very few).
