Recall is easy to disable, but the rest of the crap in Windows 11 is a constant game of cat and mouse. No respect for the user/client at all.

Though, considering the culture of normalization of deviance that developed in NASA's human spaceflight division during the Shuttle's 30-year track record of near and not-so-near misses, it's hard to imagine why we should expect NASA to demand anything different. These two organizations were made for each other.

I'm a Unix admin. I've used Linux for over 15 years ever since the age of 13, where a dutch hacker gave me a box debian. Kernel 2x was my first setup.

Icepack Linux was my first Linux OS:

https://distrowatch.com/table-mobile.php?distribution=icepac...

Where Matrox S3 drivers were something you needed to modify yourself and Xorg was XFree86.

If I was to gloat; sadly my open mind has become a cynical one a long time ago.

Speak for yourself I suppose. I can hop between Linux (KDE, Gnome, whatever) and Windows and still feel like my muscle memory for OS interactions and application shortcuts still works. There are minor differences, but things like copy and paste still work properly.

When I try to use a Mac, everything is just ... different. CMD instead of Ctrl, buttons on the other side of windows, inconsistent maximize logic between programs, whatever Finder is supposed to be doing with folder navigation. It's certainly learnable with effort, and I can move around the OS competently now with some practice, but it's just unpleasant enough that I'd rather not use it as my daily driver.
I would love to own something like this one day. Makes me wonder if something similar is possible for vintage sports cars.
Austin's Butterfly: How to Learn from Feedback
Windows is an amalgam of interests and capabilities within Microsoft. I trust different parts different ways because different motivations drive them. I think it's reasonable to assume this is well-intentioned but not trust that they've given enough thought to the threat models surrounding it. It's also reasonable to assume the AV team will add an exception to it with all the best intentions.

No malice or evil is needed, just good but misguided intentions.

If you are interested in learning more, there is a podcast series by New York Magazine called Cover Story: Power Trip that goes pretty deeply into MAPS. It is just one perspective on it, but a very valid one. Many of these concerns have been raised within the psychedelic community for years but basically brushed aside by MAPS. It all came out yesterday though.

(my personal opinion is that psychedelics are or can be of great therapeutic benefit, but the MAPS/Lykos clinical trial was definitely problematic.)

My point seems to have flown over your head. Obviously it's a given that I know that, I'm a histologist. My point was that IBD is marked by histological changes within gut epithelial tissue that suggest chronic inflammation and elevated TNF-a and cytokine activity. However, it doesn't mean that the causative agent of IBD is the same for everyone.

If this was the case, and IBD was a purely genetic illness with no environmental component, then it would be literally impossible to study it. In labs we force mice to ingest dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) which produces persistent colitis by degrading the gut mucosa. It's impossible to really tell without sequencing someone's entire genome whether their IBD comes from genetic factors or environmental factors.

Both IBD and IBS respond to changes in diet, as both diseases involve degradation of the gut mucosa. Obviously IBD is marked with inflammation as well, while IBS is marked only by dysbiosis and abdominal discomfort.
Human neurons are continuous input, with active dendrites and dendritic compartmentalization. Spikey artificial NNs seem to hit problems with riddled basins so far. A riddled basin is a set with no open subsets.

Feed forward networks are effectively DAGs, and circuit like, not TM like.

Caution is warranted when comparing perceptrons with biological neurons.

Dendrites can perform XOR operations before anything makes it to the soma for another lens.

While there is much to learn, here is one highly cited paper on dendritic compartmentalization.

https://mcgovern.mit.edu/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/1-s2.0-S...

I think that the perceptron model of learning plasticity is on pretty shaky ground as being a primary learning model for humans.

Windows desktop users are all over the planet. Only a small percent of them could ever afford this.
"Tesla only exists through government largesse, specifically carbon tax credits."

This assumes no subsidies for oil and gas (plenty, including depreciation below cost basis!)

In terms of credits - those are in the 2%-3% range of revenue.

In terms of SpaceX being the most dependent on the govt - totally false. Things like SLS are cost plus, have cost $20 billion with almost nothing to show for it. SpaceX is so available, cheap and reliable they are literally launching ESA payloads (ESA won't even mention them its so embarrassing), most commercial payloads that can actually go to bid and competitors payloads (looking at you Amazon).
Extremely dependent on the photo, but generally more doable that most people assume. Geowizard on youtube has a series where he guesses the location of arbitrary photos sent to him by subscribers, and he has quite a high success rate.

As a non Twitter/X user, I keep hearing this take and I gotta say... I just don't see it.

To me, there has been no significant change, aside from hearing more people on the left bemoan that Elon is giving "dangerous" people on the right a platform.

But I honestly don't see an actual difference aside from people saying there is one.
> unless you believe in ghosts it's hard to make a case that human-like AGI shouldn't ultimately be possible.

Thanks for chiming in as I'm completely unfamiliar with Searle.

I don't believe in immaterial human souls, therefore self-aware AGI appears to be a near inevitability of technological advancement from my perspective. To suggest that it's impossible is, in my opinion, absurd.
I find it interesting that if a random person had made a program the takes screenshots of their desktop periodically, does OCR, and locally trains an LLM on the output, it would have been a super cool project that nobody would have an issue with. It sucks that we are at the point where we can’t trust large tech companies to do the right thing.
I use this same trick, to ensure I resume right where I left off. Works great! Also helps me jump right back in, don't have to go looking for a problem/rabbit hole.
Seriously? Your definition of "self-driving" must be different from normal.

Any proper understanding of the term "self driving", including the way Musk advertises it, is 'tell car through the UI where you want it to go, sit back and it reliably gets you there with zero further input, better than the average human driver'.

Please post a video of it doing this for any route on real roads, with no driver input. Seriously. I'd love to see it, because I never have.

I've seen Tesla videos with few required driver interventions. But not none. And from the accidents I've read about, I sure as shirt would not give it a destination and recline reading a book. Especially on left-turns and near emergency vehicles, turning trucks, or construction barriers.

So, what is your definition of self-driving, and what performance can you show? And in what road conditions?
That's a great example of the fact that information about something, say a song, isn't entirely encoded only in the medium you use to transfer it - it's partially there, and partially in the device you're using to read it! An MP3 file is just gibberish without a program that can decode it.

In this case, the whole album could indeed fit into a single TCP/IP packet - because the bulk of information that make up those songs is contained in the model, which weights however many gigabytes it does. The packet carrying your album is meaningless until the recipient also procures the model.

(Tangent: this observation was my first mind. blown. experience when reading GEB over a decade ago.)
Some people cherry pick something that's hard to do on Linux and then jump to the conclusion that Linux is consistently hard to use. It is not.

Windows reached its peak through deals where it comes preinstalled.

Windows is bloated and OEM manufacturers add even more bloat to it. The result is sluggish machines that are a complete waste of potential.

Forced updates, ads and now outright spying makes Windows the inferior choice. Having 3 extra FPS in some dumb game is not worth your privacy.
In a way, I find your comment unintentionally hilarious. Sure, this may actually be true. Consider the source, however. Congratulating yourself by quoting the tobacco company's own research of (the lack of) adverse effects of tobacco seems a tad ill-conceived. The talk of reputation makes it doubly so, since on this topic Sam Altman or any official OpenAI post has no credibility whatsoever.

Setting aside the copyright issues--just like the AI companies already have--it would be interesting to train a model only on text books of all ages. Would it be able to tell the edits/revisions/versions that have been made over time and categorize them from new learning vs changes in political winds?

> We have spent the past half-decade wrestling with ideas of gender and privilege, attempting to challenge the old stereotypes and power structures.

I think it's worth considering how this approach has differed for girls and boys.

For girls, the predominant approach seems to be positive messaging along the lines of 'you can do anything' and 'girl power'. It's an approach of encouragement.

For boys, the message is largely 'don't be toxic'. It's an approach that appears to assume masculinity is unappealing and something to be fought.

I'm not going to argue that our culture doesn't encourage some very unhealthy and frankly antisocial ideas about what it is to 'be a man', but I question what is being achieved by focusing so much on these without balancing the message. Part of the reason for the emphasis I think comes from the way the encouragement is presented to girls - e.g. 'men and boys are holding you back and you should focus on how in order to fight it' (not untrue in many cases).

I have a young son and I worry about the messages he will take on board as he grows up. I will do my best to make sure he doesn't adopt an unhealthy version of masculinity, but at the same time I don't want him to grow up thinking that there is something inherently wrong with him (i.e. just by virtue of being male he is somehow 'toxic').

I also have a friend with a son who is now a teenager. I've known her son since they were two and watched them grow up. At about age 13 they let us know that they were not 'male'. Fair enough. Still, they haven't adopted some sort of feminine identity instead. Rather, it seems to me that they have essentially looked at what they thought 'being male' meant and decided they did not want to be that. Many of their peers did the same (some even changing their name).

I can't help but think that - at least in the case of my friend's son - this is not some example of 'being born in the wrong body', but a reaction to a widespread derogatory narrative about what it means to be male. I know that as a teen I was very uncomfortable with some of the expectations around that (being aggressively competitive, being stronger than others, etc). Had I been in an environment where the idea of gender was being questioned and criticised so widely, maybe I would have rejected my gender in the same way. I'm glad I didn't, because with time I have come to realise that I define what 'being a man' is by virtue of being one.

It's a difficult path for boys today. I see it in the young people around me. There are some young people I know will do well in this world - it is easy to recognise from a relatively early age. Confidence, a positive attitude, intelligence, competence, etc. The interesting thing to me is that when I think about the young people I know and who has these qualities there is a clear bias towards the girls and young woman and I can't help thinking that this is directly related to the messages we are giving young people about who they are.
It's better to attempt elimination diets rather than a single type (low-fodmap, specific carb, carnivore, etc.) What works for one person may not work for everybody.
Even if it is contained within the model _somewhere_, it might be encoded in such a way that it's impractical to extract. Might need an exponential time algorithm, for example. Or this proxy method of hundreds of deceiving attempts.

And it's very difficult to train it as a next token predictor and at the same time make it say correctly "I don't know".
Actually, no. The XDG specifications are intended for desktop environments, the focus is on end users throughout the specs. System services and their locations are out of scope. The standard for filesystem layout was the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard [0], which predates the XDG by about a decade. Although Debian-before-multiarch was the distribution that most closely adhered to the FHS, it was not a Debian-only document.

That being said, all my systems have /var/tmp as just a symlink to /tmp, regardless of what the FHS may have to say about it -- and it's cleaned weekly, not just on reboot.

At a certain point it becomes apparent that proprietary operating system vendors don't have your best interest at heart, and the only winning move is software freedom.
My brother, the least tech-oriented person you can imagine, got tired of windows updates breaking his drivers and ended up with a linux system sold by and supported by Dell. I get zero calls for help.

Other than browsing, he uses Libre Office for random documents and a photo management app I forgot. I take his experience as a very positive sign for linux.

If you work in the right kind of place (any place that does significant chemistry work, whether university or industry), a GC/MS (gas chromatograph/mass spectrometer) would tell you right away. Far too expensive and fiddly for an individual, but HN readers work in a lot of interesting places.
Container ships do provide power to refrigerated containers. My understanding is that refrigerated containers are in row with the door accessible and power hookup. I was looking at photo of the row, and how container ships have extra power system to power them. It looked like it was far down with stacks of containers around and presumably on top.
We can keep talking about it, and assuming we're both honest, we'll arrive at the answer to whether or not our subjective experiences differ. To fail at that would require us to have so little in common that we wouldn't be able to communicate at all. Which is obviously not the case, neither for us, nor for almost every possible pair of humans currently alive.
I recommend being careful with Maté. He's worth listening to inasmuch as he has unique experience and some clearly legitimate grievances with the medical establishment, but he also seems indifferent to the limits of his own knowledge. In my (layman's) opinion he tends to be too credulous toward fringe theories/therapies and to make sweeping, radical generalizations that don't comport with the broader evidence base. For instance, his views on ADHD were called "worse than wrong" by Russell Barkley, who is arguably the leading expert on ADHD [1].

I think Resume.Ink is different because it generates a new PDF resume tailored specifically to the job you're applying to. While JSON Resume generates a cover letter. I think they actually complement each other quite well.

Just because people are not aware that Recall exists and is actively collecting data without their knowing does not mean it doesn't matter. The people that believe it doesn't matter is precisely why these companies get away with what they do.

Yeah my bad, I just tried to delete my comment but too late.

My useful feedback;

- I thought the UX was broken when there was no next button after answering questions

- It would be great if the homepage showed a real example (real JD, real before and after)

- There was a bug in my upload (Thomas Davis pdf if you are looking at the database). It hallucinated a whole job I've never had into my finished resume.
Windows for all it's faults is a very open ecosystem, in contrast Macs aren't that appealing. Especially if you aren't running iphones and ipads etc.

I do agree that Recall isn't the reason to switch though. The abuse Microsoft has put their users through the last few years has been unimaginable, to the point where switching to anything will feel liberating. Even Linux desktop.
Yeah that's right, I doubt that a model would generate an image or text so close to a real one to violate copyright law just by pure chance, the image/text space is incredibly large.
This is irresponsible advice. Some people find that meat alleviates their symptoms while other people find more relief from going vegetarian. Recommending a single type of diet (especially a "fad" diet like the carnivore diet, rather than one with some type of scientific basis like low-fodmap or specific carbohydrate diets) as a panacea is not going to work for most people. People can and should try elimination diets instead, where you eliminate all but the most basic of foods and slowly reintroduce foods over time to see which ones are triggers.

It's entirely possible you or someone you know saw great success with a carnivore diet, but others trying it might not see the same results and need one tailored to their specific gut microbiome.
It’s better than it was, but it’s not 100% consistent.

I’ve found that once you get over the initial hump of knowing how the Lua interface works, being able to translate between vimscript and Lua for most things is very obvious.

The better comparison is probably Falcon 9 and Crew Dragon in terms of mass / mission etc. Starship is in a totally different class

For Falcon 9 - it will look slower on takeoff as well. One reason not mentioned yet is that after engine start, Falcon is held down until all vehicle systems are verified as functioning normally before release for liftoff. So they can do pressure / thrust etc checks on the ground before releasing.

With solid rocket motors especially - once you light those you are pretty committed.
That's for sure. It's been... five, six years? Since last time I visited any of those sites and found relevant information. Not for lack of trying, but it's all outdated or incomplete.
Half the problem with Elon is that he does spend some of his time reading stuff like this and shitposting on the website formerly known as Twitter about it, instead of going to work or sitting on a beach reading something more useful.

Upon reflection this is also a problem with me, but I don't own SpaceX or Tesla, so fewer people are going to call me out on it.
Hey you want to work on AI projects together!?
TL;DR, Steam's Proton compatibility layer. 90% of steam games work out of the box on it, with the biggest exceptions that don't work being due to anti-cheats explicitly preventing the game from running in something like proton/wine. You can thank the steam deck for bringing this level of functionality, as it's basically a Linux box with -actually reasonable defaults-.
Simple reasoning is a side effect of compression. That is all.

I see from your profile you are focused on your own personal and narrow definition of reasoning. But I’d argue there is a much broader and simpler definition. Can you summarize and apply learnings. This can.
