Your point is correct, but you've got it backward.

It was the husband who signed up for the free trial and bought tickets to Epcot.

Yet he is suing not on his own behalf, but on behalf of her estate, and she never entered into any such agreement.

You can think of it this way: Disney wronged the woman who died. She is the one who is owed damages. But since she's dead, her estate is owed damages. Her husband is the administrator of her estate, and he is suing on its behalf. So whatever agreements he has entered into in his individual capacity are irrelevant. It would be like trying to force arbitration on someone because their lawyer had a Disney+ subscription. That doesn't mean that they themselves entered into an agreement with Disney.
> My understanding is that even non-toric RGP lenses can correct some degree of astigmatism.

This is correct. Both of my eyes have astigmatism, but in differing amounts. One eye is corrected with a non-toric RGP while the other requires a toric RGP. The line is around a 1.75/2.00.
That is a fair point. I forgot about kids. That could be a nightmare trying to find your tween at a big festival.

Unfortunatelly I had to move from Bitwarden after I realised it's sometimes impossible to unlock the password store without connection to server.
Why ask if I've read the law and then come up with a story about airborne slinkies? The Chevron case itself was an already easy to explain example: lack of clear definition of source combined with lack of clear deference to the agency to decide. If the law was just written clearly then the EPA wouldn't have changed it's interpretation of what a source is over the years. If the EPA was supposed to be able to make more blanket decisions on the matter then the law needn't halfway spell out the details in that portion and just say that instead.

A base assumption that every law comes with an implied "lets the Executive define, without any restriction, what this agency should do" is certainly not something I'd want the country to just assume (and not even something I'm sure I want any law to specify outright either...)

New supercomputing network could lead to AGI
After being fed up with AgileBits' (1P's owner) shenanigans (hiding critical threads on their user forum, ignoring customer voices wilfully, being generally dismissive of criticism), I decided to give Bitwarden a try.

I used it in conjunction with Vaultwarden for a year with the idea that I'd evaluate it as a family-wide replacement for 1P.

In the end I went back to 1P.

1P does some things amazingly well. Here's the shortlist:

- It loads quickly. This wasn't the reason I went back to 1P, but it loads an order of magnitude more quickly than any of Bitwarden's clients: Windows, Linux, iOS, Mac. Bitwarden is slow, slow, slow. I was willing to put up with it for freedom. I wanted Electron 1P to be awful. It's not. Electron Bitwarden kinda is...

- The (I can't believe I'm saying this) killer feature: being able to sort passwords by date (or well - being able to sort at all). If you use a password manager long enough, you'll have a lot of passwords. Sometimes you need to find one manually. Bitwarden made this far more difficult than it needs to be. There's no way to sort the passwords. You have to use the (lackluster) search.

- 1P can put your most recent passwords, secrets and make them easily accessible by default. Yep, more sorting issues. This is particularly helpful in my work related to software and infra development. There are often a lot of secrets, especially during spikes. It's nice to not have to hunt for them too much.

- Shared vaults are better with 1P. Easy to move secrets, easy to de-dupe. Etc. etc.

Everything about Bitwarden is fine for a single, technical user, but it's not for sharing secrets with non-technical family members at any scale. It's just too clumsy with too many sharp edges.

I really, really wanted to leave 1P behind. But I came back to it. And I don't regret it.
In authoritarian regimes, officials often get away with peadophilla/child molestation, drug trafficking, rape and murder.

The first two are often used as justifications for taking freedom away and giving more control or power to the government. However that gets us closer to an all powerful, unaccountable government.

Power corrupts, sooner or later those who wish to commit these crimes will seek out official positions where they can commit them with impunity.
There wasn’t a capricious change with every administration. You can point to isolated examples but not some over arching, wide ranging scheme. Your view about it being a good thing that Chevron is gone will not age well. You will be like the Texas ranchers that vote Republican and complain about oil companies polluting their water.
That $50K figure wasn't mentioned in the article above. Where did you see it?

I'm surprised that the figure would be so low, both because wrongful death claims are usually 6- or 7-figure amounts, and also because she was a NYC doctor with much higher future earnings potential than the average person.

Edit: I see in a previous article on wdwnt.com that "Piccolo is seeking damages in excess of $50,000 under the Florida Wrongful Death Act." That doesn't mean, though, that he's seeking only $50K. I believe it means that he only needs to disclose at this point that the damages he's seeking are at least $50K, but could be much higher.
> Am I the only one who thinks these features really don't add much to the experience?

Probably because it's just bolting more shit on the ends of a shitty, outdated relic of a system. Like, we have two different computers, one of which is playing back a pre-recorded voice, to a computer which is transcribing that voice into text and buttons, so it can play a generated voice back to the other computer, which will then interpret that voice into text, then perform an action based on that text. The action probably being repeating that process a few more times.

This is remarkably bad. I'm remembering the last time I had to deal with Apple Support. I didn't sit on hold for hours, I told them I needed a call, told them what the issue was, gave a brief summary, and then their support person called me, I was immediately on the phone with a human, she sorted out my problem, and the entire thing took probably 10 minutes tops, including filling out the form.

It feels like these legitimate challenges to businesses to manage their customer service lines, support lines, etc. have actual solutions that:

a) don't require two different damn computers talking over a shitty low-baud connection to one another, and

b) result in a better experience for all parties involved

If they'd just be willing to spend a little goddamn money, like they actually care to provide good service, rather than just paying lip service to it while offering the same garbage system they've offered since the fucking 1970's.

Denmark, together with Greenland but not the Faroe Islands, became a member of what is now the European Union, but negotiated certain opt-outs, such as retaining its own currency, the krone.

Well, lector literally means "reader" in Latin, and lectio means "a(n act of) reading". It's exactly what it says on the tin.

The thing is, reading the textbook on your own, then discussing the material with the teacher (in a group) is still quite an efficient way to obtain knowledge even though it's not most efficient on an individual level. This knowledge, of course, still needs to be turned into practical skills.
It amazes me that something as simple and obvious as cut and paste had to be invented. Even more amazing that we can actually point to the person that did it.

Compared to Core Data, SwiftData has fundamentally revolutionized the way data models are constructed. It not only supports a purely code-based declaration method but also allows the direct use of types conforming to the Codable protocol and enum types within models, which are its significant new features. Many developers are inclined to leverage these new capabilities because they seem to fit very well with the Swift language’s declaration style. However, a lack of understanding of the implementation details and potential limitations of these new features may lead to various issues in the future. This article aims to discuss several key points to consider when using Codable and enums in SwiftData models, helping developers avoid common pitfalls.
I totally get this. I recently changed the license on my project from MIT to AGPL after getting a dm from someone interested in buying the project. I make absolutely no money at the moment, if anything I'm paying out of pocket for the domain, and don't think will any time soon. My only goal was to protect the project from getting commercialized by someone else. I've gotten questions about it and have been questioning whether I got too scared that someone might monetize what I worked so hard on.

This is genuinely an underrated problem. This extends to a bunch of tech things in my life… if our Plex server were to fail everyone would be able to survive but we have a whole smart home setup with Home Assistant and if that fails the lights are going to stop turning on correctly.

I’ve made a pact with a similarly techy friend of mine that should something happen to either of us the other will step in and maintain in the short term, transition to something more hands off in the long term. But I still pay for Bitwarden for that extra level of reassurance.
[Grumpy mode start]

Some nitpicks, maybe someone finds it useful. Could we talk about a code design a little bit?

class DSV:
@property
def delimiter(cls) -> bytes:
return b'\x1F'

@property
def record_separator(cls) -> bytes:
return b'\x1E'

@property
def encoding(cls) -> str:
return 'utf-8'

It's Python, do not make a premature properties for static values.

class DSV:
delimiter = b'\x1F'
record_separator = b'\x1E'
encoding = 'utf-8'

Also it's a false inheritance relationship. Writer is not related to configuration. You can't make any other useful subclasses for DSV (ok maybe DSVReader, but that's it). At least it should be in the opposite way: an abstract Writer operating on instance configuration attributes and DSVWriter defining these attributes.

Also `self._buffer += chunk` is O(N^2). It starts to bite even for buffers small as 100 bytes. It's ok for an example, but it's an issue for real code. Example at least buffers incomplete record not a whole read chunk (good!). But does only one split at a time (bad).

Nevertheless article is very valuable and interesting to read. CSV gotchas are well described.
In my opinion, scaling becomes a bigger problem with this architecture style, but the biggest issue is testability. Testing microservices is a really tedious task, and no, contract testing is not a solution.

I've tested old chats with the latest 4 and 4o models, and what had been zero-shot now sometimes can't even be done (or at least not without carefully guiding it to the answer).

My old chats say they have been migrated to 4o. But, I swear (can't confirm) that they perform better than a new 4o session. I haven't had time yet, but I wanted to side-by-side compare the responses from those old chats with the current 4o model.
>E.g Current AI / Metaverse features helps plenty of poor, underprivileged people around the world, especially non-english speaking. But HN is the first to mock such features.

AI features in phones from Google are English only or maybe a few languages, even if you know English try to use "AI" to set a route using your voice when the locations are not english words. Sure, some free AIs on the web will help poor people but the best ones are under payment wall and not only that you need a specific way to pay, what I mean for example is Netflix, Steam do not need my credit card, they have alternative ways to pay like PayPal but Google, Microsoft, OpenAI they only allow credit card , so I conclude they do not care for my money they really need that credit card for some reason.
Your concerns are valid.

Two more things concerning Chatbot Arena:

- The prompts people use on have an incredible sample bias towards certain tasks and styles, and as such are unrepresentative of "overall performance" which is what people expect from a leaderboard.

- It is incredibly easy to game by a company, their employees or their fanboys if they would like to. No idea if anyone has done so, but it's trivial.

Just to give one example of the bias; advances in non-English performance don't even register on the leaderboard because almost everyone rating completions there is doing so in English. You could have a model that's a 100 in English and a 0 on every other language, and it would do better on the leaderboard than a model that's a 98 in every human language in the world.

Also not true. They have a duty to enforce the law as they understand it (noting that verification is just a phone call away), which may be better than average due to training and experience, or not.

Either way, your duty is to cooperate with law enforcement. If they are wrong, the only proper place to determine that is the courts. If they are right, you'll still have avoided a "resisting" charge
> His whole history proves that his moral principles go first, not money.

Having moral principles is completely orthogonal to being ethical. Ayn Rand had lots of moral principles and she was still a reckless sociopath. One of his moral principles is that greed is good, and his actions certainly are consistent with this one.

He did lose a lot of money on Twitter, but you can hardly call that him following his moral principles, considering how things actually happened.

> He doesn't care if his defense of free-speech causes him revenue losses on X.

Whose free speech is he defending? There is no evidence that he champions free speech, merely that he supports however agrees with him and edgelords. He is more than happy to harass, intimidate, bully, and be a general nuisance to those whose opinions he finds objectionable.

don't imagine a ball spinning. Imagine a spinning top. It acts as a gyroscope. When a force is applied to it it tries to resist it, but it also causes precession. The equations for that precession can be used for electrons in a particular context. This is how we discovered that particles have angular momentum in the first place. Whatever we measure in that context, is what we call a particle's spin. It's all about the angular momentum and the precession caused by an external force.

tldr: nothing is spinning in a particle. what we refer to as spin refers to how angular momentum is affected by external forces, which happens to behave similarly to a spinning gyroscope. So we called that property "spin"
> > Surely there are infinite other possible explanations that fit the finite number of data points available
> If you think there are others, please exhibit one.

One easy process for generating infinite explanations that fit a finite number of data points is taking the simplest theory you have, and adding extra rules that don't affect any of the existing data points.

e.g., if the standard explanation for observations like red shift, CMB, the abundance of light elements, etc. is H² = (ȧ/a)² = (8πG/3)ρ - kc²/a² + Λc²/3,
One alternate explanation that fits all the data is H² = (ȧ/a)² = (8πG/3)ρ - kc²/a² + Λc²/3 + T, where T is the number of teacups in the asteroid belt. No observation has yet been made which would falsify this theory, and it fits the data just as well as the standard explanation. We reject it on the grounds of parsimony, not falsification.
