Hungary is a democracy. The election was monitored by the OSCE, which concluded that the elections “were well administered and professionally managed but marred by the
absence of a level playing field”.

I don’t see how that’s worse than the French people voting Macron out and France still being governed by Macron and his people.

Throwing around words like autocracy is by now lame and tired, just like those crying racism all the time.
Is Sam Altman generally considered good at his job? OpenAI hasn't really come up with any groundbreaking breakthroughs (transformers came from Google and diffusion came from academia) and they definitely do not make a profit or have any concrete plan to become profitable. He's really good at raising gargantuan amounts of money, but that's not enough to be considered a good founder.
Haha it’s funny I posted about that earlier in the day https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41630783

They even had a $400/halfcab option earlier this year. Pity I didn’t jump on it.
Agreed. This design is going to be very very hard to machine precisely and very expensive to prototype

They don't even say exactly what they did or how long it took or how well the tolerances turned out. They only give the classic understated view:

"Many parts of the prototype were built from high-performance plastics with high machinability and stable properties because the components of ABENICS have complex shapes, which makes estimating problems during prototyping difficult. Construction from strong materials such as metals will also improve the capability of the device."

Would be great if you added buttons like 'Show Positive Sentiment Example' 'Show Neutral Sentiment Example', and 'Show Negative Sentiment Example' to the chart that will show a randomly picked comment from Hacker News with one of those sentiments. It would really help in understand the source of the information and it would really prove that your info is genuine.
Your reply feels short of consideration & unable to grasp the difference between #2 and #3. You've quoted plenty of #3 at me to ram your case home, but that's not really what I've been speaking to, and it's not what people were angry about or protesting that caused me to post in the first place.

We were sold a problem, the government subsidized it, and people are getting medals for a financial solution. That's what's interestingly distinct about this case. we're using miracle medicine to mitigate something that should be fixed with better lifestyle changes (including the ingredients and portions in food that allows that to proliferate).

The consumer artifact for a game developed for a platform is a binary that can run natively on that platform.

Regarding games, that is a binary that targets the ubuntu based Steam Linux Runtime. That's what I meant when I said that devs should be able to target it as a regular console SDK.

There's two Futurism articles on the front page right now. They're both submitted by the same person (a green name), both of them are rewritings of other articles, both of them are ragebait articles against AI (the other article headline failed to mention California; this headline failed to mention Salesforce), both of them are upvoted very highly.

Of course I'm biased, but I think this is pretty awful. It's just people here upvoting poorly-titled ragebait.

(The other one was about the California X Hollywood bill.)

I think there is a significant difference between an AI "cloning" you versus an AI cloning your work. (I'm not saying that the latter is not a problem in need of regulation, just that it is different enough to warrant separate legislation -- which I expect to arrive soon-ish.)
Personally I'd avoid metal tools for cleaning it out as if you're not careful you can damage the socket.

I never understood what's the point of stand-up comedians (and never heard a single actually funny joke from these folks), but isn't that the whole point why people who find this nonsense amusing invite them? For them to insult you, and you laugh and pretend that it was very funny and you are having a great time? That's literally what stand-up comedians are paid to do at these events (again, I never understood why anybody would pay for that, but that's literally what constitutes a stand-up comedian performance). So what's the news here?

Note that leftists specifically hate liberals. "Shitlib" is a slur in the leftist space. The subreddit r/alltheleft has "Leftists > Liberals" as their description, and so on.

I believe conservativism is aligned with order, liberalism is aligned with freedom (with libertarianism being the extreme version of it), and leftism is aligned with equality.
Pakistan is a country that launch satellites to the space and spend solid money on building atomic bombs. They are perfectly capable to develop new antibiotics to fix their problem. They may also want to support and teach more people doing microbiology research on the country.

That will contribute to the well-being of every children in the world, providing also the state with a lot of political leveraging and allies.

The Japanese company that developed the antibiotic currently used on Pakistan will never have the same resources as the state of Pakistan.

As a non-architect, I would love if you could explain some of what makes the non-duck designs _so_ horrible. Some of them looked more than fine to me at first glance. It's also something that can be rerun over and over with little interaction in-between runs so one could generate a handful of designs starting from different seeds and get inspiration.

Constraint programming is not Julia specific =)
Agreed that warp is a marketing term, but it is definitely not something that should be called "threads" except in the very loosest sense of the term.

A bunch of threads in parallel implies MIMD parallelism- multiple instructions multiple data.

A warp implies SIMD parallelism - single instruction multiple data (although technically SIMT, single instructions multiple threads https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_instruction,_multiple_t...).

From both a hardware and software perspective those are very different types of parallelism that Nvidia's architects and the architects of its predecessors at Sun/SGI/Cray/elsewhere were intimately familiar with. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flynn%27s_taxonomy
> What you're saying is correct and appropriate I think for mature codebases with "settled" domains and projects with mature testing and QA processes that are well into maintenance over exploration/iteration. But on the way there, the overhead induced by a single domain object whose exact definition is unstable potentially proliferating a dozen types is developmentally/procedurally toxic.

> To put a finer point on it: be fully explicit when rate of change is expected to be slow, but when rate of change is expected to be high favor making changes easy.

I agree with the gist of it, at the same time I've worked in many projects which did not care about defining a difference between those types of data in their beginning, and since they naturally change fast they accrued a large amount of technical debt quickly. Even more when those projects were in dynamically typed languages like Python or Ruby, relying just on test cases to do rather big refactorings to extrincate those logical parts are quite cumbersome, leading to avoidance to refactor into proper data structures afterwards.

Through experience I believe you need to strike a balance, if the project is in fluid motion you do need to care more about easiness of change until it settles but separating the actions (representation of a full fledged entity vs representation of a request/action to create the entity, etc.) is not a huge overhead given the benefits down the line (1-3 years) when the project matures. Balancing this is tricky though, and the main reason why any greenfield project requires experienced people to decide when flexibility should trump better representations or not.
We build a million things each year which are a lot more impressive than cathedrals.

China built a entire high speed rail network that's about the size of all the other ones in the world, combined, and they did it in 20 years.

China built a high speed Maglev train between Beijing and Shanghai, I think Japan is going to build one soon, too.

The US has been building hyper tall pencil looking skyscrapers in Manhattan for about 20 years.

There are tons of amazing tunnels being built around the world, as we speak.

India, China, Indonesia, etc. are building amazing subway networks in tens of cities.

The scale, complexity and sheer audacity of what we're building has never been seen in the history of the world.
Why would those sophisticated enough to go that far, be of low quality

I created a brand new account on matrix.org, started an encrypted direct chat with my personal account on my self hosted server (which has been running for around 2 years..) and everything worked fine. Messages were successfully being decrypted on both ends...

> In other words, matrix.org has isolated itself, forcing everyone else (those who set up their own servers or registered on small company servers, for example) to create accounts on matrix.org to avoid losing contact with the majority of people on the network.

This seems like a bit of an exaggeration don't you think?

> authorities have simply approached them and asked to create a walled garden to prevent people from spreading across uncontrolled servers.

That is quite an allegation, do you have any further evidence for this?
There are plenty of systems held together by screws and other removable devices which are waterproof.
That's true of a lot of standup comic jokes that rely on generalizations. Because they're generalizations.
Not quite so. They did end up measuring a multiple of the fundamental electric charge. The experiment really measured 3e, 6e, 9e, etc. It turns out that the electron and proton have an electric charge 3× bigger than that of a quark. Since the experiment didn’t generate any free quarks, nobody noticed for years. Even today the mistake persists and school children are taught, unironically, that down quarks have ±⅓ of the fundamental indivisible unit of electric charge and that up quarks have ±⅔e.
The west is rapidly losing any kind of credibility and moral leadership due to its hypocritical stance where on the one hand they denounce the invasion of Ukraine, but on the other hand simultaneously support/enable the Gaza genocide. "Warn them" — why should they trust that western governments are being sincere rather than yet again just feigning humanitarian concern while having a political agenda? This extends to outside just central Asia: African leaders have been complaining for some time now that while every time China visits, they get a bridge or a hospital, every time a western leader visits, they only get a lecture (on how $COUNTRY is bad, how $STUFF is bad) and nothing ever gets done.

Frankly it concerns me that so few people know that the global south is rapidly losing trust in the west because of our own hypocritical, politicized, insincere behavior. Western media pretty much never talks about this sort of stuff and so most people are still in lala land.
Wow, congratulations on the conspiracy theory.

The reason that bug has been ignored is because it (like the comment above) is completely unactionable: there are no details of which server is failing to federate, or examples of failed requests, etc.

No servers have been explicitly defederated from matrix.org, and when federation breaks it is 99% because the recipient server is badly administered or overloaded and is emitting errors, causing matrix.org to mark it down.

Meanwhile, we’re not aware of patterns of federation problems currently.

So: if you want us to help - rather than ranting about conspiracy theories, please give us some details to investigate and fix.

> Disconnect dozens of cables and parts – wow, it's going to be hard to remember how everything goes back together

We didn’t invent writing, drawing, and photographing for nothing.

1. Have small storage boxes numbered 1 through 1000.

2. Before and after detaching anything, take photos (multiple, if needed)

3. Draw arrow/circle/… indicators on the photos to help you remember what to look at.

4. Whatever comes loose, put it in the next labeled box.

5. Take a photo of the filled box and the tool(s) you used to detach that part.

6. When putting things back together, work backwards through your photos.
I think that's fair and AI should create new actors, avatars, which then could fall into IP laws.

So if Apple would provide a similar D3D shim on macOS, all D3D games would suddenly become "Metal games"?

If Apple would implement Vulkan support on macOS it would be a layer on top of Metal (same as their GL implementation or MoltenVk). Running through two translation layers (D3D => Vk => Metal) doesn't make a lot of sense.
An elephant brain has 3 times as many neurons as a human.

It'd be great to see people protected everywhere, but do estates for the dead always exist? Hopefully there's some exception carved out for the dead who don't really have anyone around to care if they're used or not. A lot of cool stuff could be done with AI historical figures or ancient performers.

> Colo is for racks. It's for businesses.

This blog post mentions parking an old switch with a derpy little raspberry pi.

Also, what makes colocation something for businesses is cost. The likes of Hetzner also sells colocation, and nowadays you can buy a used rack for around $100.

Moreover, today's COTS computers are not like your parent's. A mini PC selling nowadays for peanuts has gigabit Ethernet, 16GB of RAM and half a dozen or so cores. You'd pay a small fortune for servers with those characteristics in the early 2000s, and nowadays that hardware is used to check emails.
If you've got Chunghwa/HiNet, you most likely don't suffer from CG-NAT. They're the most expensive offer because they're the best offer.

If you're with those shitty resellers, you 99% will get CG-NATed. You pay 50% of the CHT price, but you get 25% the quality. You see this in large apartment buildings: They take Chunghwa fiber and resell it, NAT the entire building into the 192.168.0.0/16 block to save on costs, because IPv4 is $$$. Forget about IPv6 support. The bandwidth they have is oversold, so the 400M you bought might not actually reach those speeds during peak hours, unless you're lucky enough to be living in a new building where more than half the apartments are vacant.

I have some experience with the latter. Their support staff is often utterly incompetent, too.
Interesting that it's made out of laminated bamboo. Often this kind of thing is plywood which is its own aesthetic but I think not as nice (and a nightmare if the plywood is big box store crap and not excellent quality). It's a great, dimensionally stable material but really a hassle to get hold of here in non-bulk quantities. I wanted some bamboo sheets for a knife rack and ended up buying table mats at retail and cutting them down.
