I suspect they're not completely giving up, and will try to run it back with some minor tweaks as a free-to-play title in a few months. It's a time-honored failed-launch tradition and probably worth a shot once you let the bad publicity clear. I can't imagine it working well here though, you can't really fix bland bones with a some cheap touch ups, and free is not really a unique selling point in this genre.
>> As far as I know, Media Matters never represented that n% of major advertisers' ads were shown next to racist content, just that some ads were, and that seems undisputed.

> I had understood it like this as well. Musk alleges that they got the example through contrived means and that they did it purely to hurt X financially.

I'm not sure about the other claims that X/Twitter alleges, but (in the US) succeeding on the claim of business disparagement (a type of libel) requires demonstrating actual malice. Unlike in common parlance, actual malice doesn't mean ill will or intent to harm someone [1]. It means that the defendant made a false statement of fact despite knowing that the statement or false or despite having significant doubts about the truth of the statement.

While I might be wrong, I seriously doubt the plastics creating the methane emissions you are referring to. That is almost certainly the organic matter.

I have no idea how you think plasma gasification -- requiring extreme amounts of energy -- is in any way helpful to our current environmental concerns. Unless we somehow magically start relying on 100% renewables, it seems like landfills are far-and-away the best way to go until we are able to grapple with climate change.
As long as they aren't fabricating evidence I'm perfectly fine with professional whistleblowers. There's more than enough corruption and fraud going on out there.
> The Fusion sketch solver is badly compromised, it can't do more than two or so simple successive Tangent relations without bugging out. And, my experience with Solidworks is the same, not sure if this is still true.

In my experience of building a sketcher at D-Cubed for a consultancy client (1995-2000) on top of D-Cubed's DCM, this is because DCM's curves (which are unbounded BTW) are not directed so that there are lots of erroneous solutions to attempting to constrain G1 chains of tangent bounded curves. For example the Apollonius Problem [1][2] of 3 tangent circles/lines has 2^3 = 8 solutions. IMO if John Owen had chosen directed curves for DCM then dragging configurations of tangent circles would be more stable.

I'll end with a quote from the Preface of Julian Lowell Coolidge's 1916 "A Treatise on the Circle and the Sphere" [3]:

You're right, I should be better about assuming good faith - I'd say that at this point there's at least some evidence that the user is not acting in good faith, but it's still pretty tenuous, and I wasn't acting that way to begin with. Thank you for calling that out.
You also have to pull the emergency backup out of the safe when signing up for a new thing. It's highly inconvenient.
Sure but the comparable idea with Netflix is like one show. You watch that show and then it's done. It took you maybe 8 hours. This kind of game expects a player to log in week after week, dedicating hundreds and hundreds of hours over the course of years.

But players who want to do that are already invested in other games. They're not going to split out time to play this new one unless it's amazing. This thing was $40 and not well regarded. No one is really surprised at this result.

That's also just the volume of trash. It doesn't include all the support infrastructure present at each landfill or the buffer real estate so that it is not adjacent to any desirable real estate. It's not practical to have a single huge landfill serving the country, so these other factors get multiplied by every actual landfill site we build. Still there are scant few, if any, counties in the U.S. that are so strained on real estate they can't bury their garbage.
> But if I stored it on Bitwarden, I could easily create a YubiKey backup or set it on another app like ente.

Nice try, but getting 10,000 people to dig holes (e.g. gigantic infrastructure projects) ends up costing much more than what it takes for "one guy" to "design a microchip"

Selective fine-tuning of Language Models with Spectrum
As a big advocate of Asciidoc myself, I have to say this sounds backwards to me too.

I can't imagine someone calling themselves a developer finding writing asciidoc difficult. It isn't any harder than markdown. It only has a slightly different syntax[0], and more features.

I've also faced a lot of resistance from people when asking them to migrate from markdown. My, unfavorable, opinion is that it's simply the usual reluctance to change and unwillingness to learn something new, deal with the short term pain of learning, despite longer term advantages.

Is it possible to build something like Canva / Figma in Repaint?
Okay I did the simulation. I don't think this strategy actually works, but I initially thought it might like you did. One such nash equillibrium my sim found was having the Ballmer player mix between picking either end of the range (not always 1 or 100 but around those numbers). I have the Ballmer player winning with around $.85-$1.00 EV per round. The resulting player strategy was to also try to start their binary search at the extreme ends of the range and hope they guessed the right side. It's kind of like the soccer penalty kick dynamic between the shooter and goalie. Goalie wants to pick the same side, shooter wants opposite sides. But with 100 choices, the goal is too wide I think.

I now think that not constraining the players remaining choices to follow binary search pattern would completely change the resulting equilibrium and improve the results for the player. But that would be more computationally demanding to calculate because there's a strategy choice for every range of choices. And also I've avoided work for 2 hours by working on this so that's not great haha. I _am_ curious what not constraining the player to binary search would do though...
It probably makes it easier for them to discriminate than without the video, but how is it directly more illegal under discrimination law than only hiring at in-person job fairs where you can see the same protected characteristics at the time of accepting a resume as can be seen in a video?

Regardless, yes, it’s bullshit and harmful to equity in hiring. I’m certainly not defending it.

Since we’re on a site run by YC, I should note that a version of the same “record a video” requirement is part of the standard YC application, with some of the same downsides for equitable venture capital investment decisions. Of course, a big difference is that venture capital investment decisions are entirely outside of the scope of discrimination law as currently enacted everywhere I know of, despite being very close in effect and power dynamics to hiring decisions in an employment context.
Some Maine seafood has PFAS. Your freshwater fish may not be safe either.
Very true!

I do RAG for other types of structured data and this is fundamental to get relevant objects in your context.

My approach for code would be to create a graph structure with relationships between the different codepaths and expose a retrieval api through tools/function calling so that the LLM can query the codebase structure on top of doing semantic embedding similarity search and text similarity search.

You could also add a graph search for related elements for each element returned by the other search pipelines to increase the chance of having all the pieces of the puzzle in the context before using the LLM to solve the problem.

The other crucial thing to do would be to inspect dependencies (and their types, when possible) and maybe download documentation to offer tips that are accurate and not hallucinated.

Nowadays I get hallucinations for code generation as soon as things get hard, making LLM coding useful only for trivial code writing.

Analysing the code structure and dependencies would require plenty of work for each specific language, so it won't be a easy win like "just throwing RAG" - which is what the current players are doing to raise money - with mediocre results.
Nice to see a fellow enthusiast here, this is a nice point that different hardware will have different levels of related risk. But this is kind of an entire class of attack where similar paths may be able to be used on these other controllers. Don't gloss over it.

On a side note, used to frequent a bar where one of the creators of Ledger also did. Was nice to spend various crypto freely!

Practice this phrase: "Would you like to supersize your meal?"
Oh, potentially important corollary: This means that this vulnerability allows breaking an “always UV” credential as well:

- Do as many UP-only challenges as required on a stolen Yubikey to extract the private key, not involving the RP (or maybe a single incomplete one, to discover the credentialID)

- Use the recovered private key in an UV challenge against the RP
This seems fairly subtle, not to say nonsensical.

What are you guys writing that your thinking speed outperforms your writing speed to the point where you have to optimize your software and hardware?

In my (very minuscule) experience in writing 99% of the time is spent switching between browser, scratchpad, notes, and standing up to take a walk and think about it.

Start with the minimum possible format you can (plaintext) and step up a standard when necessary. The simpler the standard, the more software there is that just works with it.

> "modern mainstream economics ..."

It would be more accurate to say "modern mainstream economists". To say "economics" here is a real failure on Wikipedia's moderation. Because what they're actually talking about, is the Austrian School of Economics [1]:

> The Austrian school is a heterodox[1][2][3] school of economic thought that advocates strict adherence to methodological individualism,

"Individualism" is the key part here because it betrays the intent, which is to disempower people from acting collectively, such as by forming unions. This is a key tenet of classical liberalism so an appeal to authority like "modern mainstream economics" we're really just saying "neoliberalism".

Neoliberalism isn't a neutral account or critique of capitalism. It wholly embraces capitalism as a solution to all problems. Neoliberalism can pretty much be summed up as weaker/smaller government (because it hurts profits) and indivudalism (because collective action hurts profits).

> 10,000 people digging holes should be more "valuable" than one guy designing a microchip

That's an asinine example. I mean what hole are they digging? If it's the Panama Canal, that's pretty valuable. Also, the example of one person designing a chip goes to the heart of the problem that LTV addressses. What does that design do? Well, nothing. It only has value if you make something with it you can sell (or you sell it to someone who does). You want to fab it? Well, TSMC involves a lot of labor. ASML involves a lot of labor. The materials required require a lot of labor.

Plus there's the issue that the chip design itself is intellectual property, which itself is an enclosure (in the capitalist sense).

Everything we as a society is so fundamentally interconnected that it's arbitrary and selective to attribute the value created to a tiny few. And it's done for the gain of the few at the expense of the many.

Is there a place for people who disagree with the author on marginal tax rates and soybean tariffs?
to me the main point of the parent comment was not that population growth is good, but that the current trend points to a sharp population decline coming in a century or two, and once we have a sharp decline it will be very hard to stop that decline and get to zero growth at replacement rate which is really what the goal in the end must be.

If we want humanity to continue, let's make the world a place where people want to bring children into it, and incentivize them doing so.

> the US custom detained my electronics, including a Yubikey

Can you elaborate on what happened?

I know that it's theoretically possible, but I thought that:

1- They would potentially detain only devices that they can extract information out of (even if encrypted), like a laptop or some hard disk... Yubikey (at least the old U2F-only ones) don't have anything that you can extract

2- They would eventually return the device to you (unless guilty of some national security violation?)

Am I mistaken on both counts?

They don’t allow genuine innovation in any shape or form, and that in particular leads to highjacking by bureaucrats and degradation. So they may work in short term (work for some at the price of oppressing the ones who don’t fit well into the collective) - I’m from USSR for example - yet the result is predetermined.
This ignores Planck's energy-frequency relation. Things like photons are affected by gravity as well.

In my experience as a vegan (not just diet..) I think a lot of vegan restaurants are opened by people who mean well but aren't like seasoned in the food industry. The ambiance's are usually bad, weird hours, or the vegan restaurants are also gluten free + raw. Just my two cents in my specific area, but while traveling a lot of vegan restaurants in the US are kinda quirky.

I actually switched from Deft -> Xeft -> Howm as my main UI for searching and creating notes :).

Xeft is indeed great, and I still keep it around for more involved searches (like “+key1 -key2” and “key1 NEAR key2”). But most of my searches now go through Howm, which supports fulltext as-you-type searching (can be invoked by pressing “g” for “grep” from its note list), and it can shell out to Ripgrep to speed it up.
I think you'll find most people would be more than happy to see a few scummy C-suites landing behind bars. I certainly welcome it and can't wait for the day when these psychopaths actually get punished for their greedy behaviour.
> every person has a purpose, nobody is superfluous or redundant.

Nice sentiment but wishful thinking lmao. At the very least there are some people for whom nowhere is a perfect fit, and there are people who would fit better in any place they could fit in. I.e. some people are not locally optimal anywhere.

Another issue is we read this and imagine the happy smart consciousness people in our friend groups. What about the psycopaths? Serial killers? Do they deserve a place too? Any environment they would thrive in would be damaging to the general welfare of polite society. Is the point then that anyone can be molded to an ideal?

That is flatly false. Worker cooperatives are every bit as innovative as any other form of private corporation. These are owned by workers not a centralized government. There are quite a few of them and you may well have purchased their products with it even realizing it. Two additional examples you may have encountered are Equal Exchange and King Arthur Flour.

There aren't more of them because they have a hell of a time securing financing when most businesses are financed through equity sales which they can't do.

I saw this article in another comment somewhere above. It makes an interesting point that recycled PET demand now outstrips supply and that is partly because curbside recycling is usually too contaminated to be useful.

All that said. I'm not sure which if you is correct.
