The alternative, giving them a password that gives them read/write access to sensitive systems, would be insane. Subpoena for particular data.
I guess that's what happens when you max out the bandwidth of your display connectors with bizarre resolutions. I'll take the 1440p144hz display, thank you very much.
If you are a little person in the USA, I believe that would be spoliation of evidence.
For example, someone telling you a completely fabricated pity story to get you give them money could be said to be scamming people.
From official vision 2030 site:

>Vision 2030 creates a thriving economy where everyone has the opportunity to succeed.

Kek aside, Saudi has limited time/window to pivot away from fossil economy. Sometimes you have to trade bodies for time, and it's much easier to trade bodies of non citizens. Vision 2030 is MBS' 2015 pet project, with 15-20 years to deliver for domestic politics. Even if you think this is vanity project, there's a lot of politics behind it, and dead foreigners for domestic politics is... well fair game. Consolation prize is we might get some cool monuments out of this instead of a war torn country.

That’s so interesting, probably a good move for them, it’s not their job to make governments lives easier
REPL driven development. I was doing it before Clojurists were talking about it. It's the most efficient way I know to build large systems -- by composing smaller pieces whose API and behavior you are deeply familiar with through interactive fiddling.

Relatedly, learning to use Emacs with power and precision has been a boon to me, though the Emacs skill ceiling is absurdly, absurdly high and there's so much I've yet to learn. Programming the editor to do repetitive work for me, not just using packages and customizations, is key.

Literate programming has been a tool in my toolkit for documenting my thoughts as I solve an interesting problem. These days I use org-mode, but noweb has been useful in the past.
I think people are missing that you're being satirical (maybe there is a better word for it?). Unless I'm the one being wooshed.
Since Python has become the new Lisp, the minimum is to have the performance tooling Common Lisp has had for several decades, in native code generation and multithreading (yes I know that in CL this is implementation specific).
>you probably don't need to draw down on the 401k until much later in your retirement to make up the difference between your pension payouts and inflation

How much "later" do you have? you're 65, life expectancy is 76 IIRC in America. Worse depending on various socioeconomic factors. If I'm not living after some 40 years of labor what was the point of life?

Also, call me paranoid but I wouldn't be surprised if they tried to raise the retirement age like they did in other countries.

>but the assumption would be that the current pension still would pay out as it did before.

Does a frozen pension accumulate interest? If not, I don't see how the difference is ever made up.
What is Nvidia supposed to do if a random dude in Singapore buys graphics cards and then resells them to Chinese? I don't understand how they can enforce anything here.
SvelteKit Streaming: The Complete Guide
This looks really interesting. The first hurdle, though, that prevents me from experimenting with this on my job is the lack of a license.

I see in the readme that it claims that it is MIT licensed, but there is no actual license file or information in any of the source files that I could find.

Your argument makes interesting observations, but relies on Earth-centric assumptions. For instance, the requirement for land-based development of complex chemistry and metallurgy assumes there couldn't be alternative pathways in different environments. We already see complex chemistry happening in deep-sea hydrothermal vents that challenges our assumptions about where complex processes can occur.

Similarly, the needs for human-like vision or specific tool manipulation may be limiting our analysis. Consider how bats and dolphins build sophisticated mental models of their world through echolocation, or how octopodes demonstrate problem-solving abilities with fundamentally different appendages than ours.

Given we only have one example of technological civilization, we should be cautious about declaring which features are truly universal requirements versus those that just happened to work for us. There might be paths to advanced technology that we haven't yet conceived.

< "does he think felons should be able to vote?"

Don't look now, but... the only reason Trump can vote is that Florida law defers to the voting laws of the state in which a felon has been convicted. New York, in turn, has lifted the ban on felons voting, but excludes them from voting from prison.
How do I find good reviewers/editors for my blog? Does anyone have recommendations?

I'm strongly against AI for any writing since it smothers the author's voice into something that sounds generic and lifeless.
This article seems to be conflating laborers dying during 7 years, and laborers dying while working on a few projects. Considering Saudi Arabia’s immigration system, or lack thereof, practically everyone who’s not a citizen is a foreign worker, and South Asians make up the lion share of the 10 million foreign workers. Are we looking at 21k dying out of a 6 million+ population over 7 years, or 21k dying out of a much smaller construction pool for a few projects?

This same narrative was told about the Qatar World Cup, only for the “World Cup deaths” to actually be total cumulative foreign labor deaths. It took the wind out of the movement to get the Gulf countries to reform their treatment of foreign workers.
It's definitely interference/obstruction at least of the raid itself yeah, but looking at the text and not being a lawyer I have a feeling it may be extremely hard to prosecute for something more substantial than a fine low enough for a french exec have it a as a guaranteed expense (bn€ in tax fraud vs a few k€ in fine). The law does also mention prison but it's not the kind of stuff that ever end up being applied for fiscal related cases.
Easy rule to avoid this sort of thing: don't buy network-connected devices that have no actual need to be network-connected. If you encounter a situation where that's unavoidable, don't set up the network connection or (if you're really pressed) firewall the thing off entirely.
>This is often untrue, though—words will evolve along parallel tracks and often diverge quite significantly in how they're used across different contexts.

Sure that happens, but mostly when they are borrowed from language to language. Mostly in the english language, if you have a situation where you have synopsis and synoptic, it's more often than or not that they are different forms of the same word or closely related. I think it doesn't immediately register for people because those 'sis' words from Greek origin aren't used a ton in general speech. Genesis and genetic is a similar situation that many people probably don't realize they are related unless they are familiar with abiogenesis or such from science.
This Spring hater (me) thinks that's a fair summary. It also eliminates much of the safety the compiler can give you for free. You will only find out during Spring init, or even later, that your program is broken.

One might argue that your analysis is driven by the need to justify the atrocities you witness-- an emotional reaction.

Income contributed to a 401k is not taxed at the time of earning. Not putting a limit on contributions would mean you could pay very little income tax. A wealthy person making 200k a year could contribute 100k to their 401k and more than halve their total income tax paid.

This thread has an utmost importance among other few HN threads and I couldn't grasp why this hasn't gained much traction yet. Our focus should be developing tools that supports the sharing/communication of the people/repositories of information spread across multiple places and accessible (the very meaning of internet, since www days). Totally worth noting the internet is "Too big to fail" yet the purpose should not be diverging on how to not only restore but to connect when/if it fails to.
The corruption runs deep. There are larger amounts of money these workers never see which land in certain hands and they of course want to keep the machinery going.

You can keep something alive for a week in a terrarium basically anywhere, I'm not even sure their result is interesting if it weren't for the fact that it was on the moon.
The problem is that you are saying death rate is so high but neither you or the article gave a rate. The number 21000 is not a rate and even if we forget about denominator. We still don't know how this number is constructed (might be lower or higher). What does the count process and how the data is collected. And as I asked before does this count family members or not (happened with many reports regarding world cup in qatar)

Now to construct rate you will need to say even if this number is correct (which we don't know) against what denominator especially if people want to compare it against death rate in different countries like some people did with US.

The report here raises many real questions that people would need to think about.

I don't defend Saudi Arabia and I hate their working system for obvious reasons.
Although the tool isn't designed for this, it's a nice way to get a clean, printable HTML copy of a section on a page. For example, the Claude web UI doesn't allow you to print a whole chat transcript. It only prints what's visible on the screen.

With this tool, you can select a point between two chat bubbles, and this will select the whole transcript.

I built a simple Chrome extension to do something similar, but my output isn't as high fidelity: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42043881
Regarding point #1, Singapore uses mandatory retirement savings. If you're pedantic it's not much different than a tax. But functionally it's more like workers are mandated to pay a certain percentag into their 401k.

Is the issue that this reduces power to the grid, specifically therefore reduces base load power since it’s nuclear? Thereby making the rest of the grid less stable?

I think Saudis are capable of leashing their servants with chains and such if this passport requirement is ever removed. They want to exploit, I think they get off on it.

I think it would be better to legally force all these migrants back into their countries every couple of months just to make sure they're not being kept by force. Fighting abuse costs money, it's expensive, I know but Saudis can afford it.
Some forms of life can tolerate remarkable levels of ionizing radiation, though I doubt anything terrestrial would survive a pass through Jupiter's radiation belts unshielded.

"as HPV isn’t solely an STD, promiscuity isn’t required for exposure and is a red herring to being inoculated against it"

"HPV inoculation mitigates several cancers from manifesting and subsequently advancing, no matter how promiscuous people choose to be"

Right, there's different strains of HPV, often called types, and since the article focuses on their effect on cervical cancers, we are focused on the ones that are transmitted sexually, as those are the ones that cause cervical cancer.

"on an individual basis, it is a low effort thing to take an HPV vaccine, no different than the regime for inoculating against chicken pox. its wild to think that if chickenpox was linked to cancers where genitalia happens to be and go, that developed nations around the world would have had issues rolling it out, like, get over it? People can consider changing their relationship with the government if they think state involvement is the same as its endorsement of contributing activities"

I'm not familiar with how HPV relates to the state. But I would like to make clear that the locus of the cancer and the transmission route of the pathogen are NOT coincidences. Pathogens enter the body either through abrasions, and less commonly through mucous membrane absorption. The damage is caused not necessarily by the resources the pathogen parasites, but by the collateral damage the pathogen causes to enter the body. At any rate the damage is localized to the site the infection occured.

So yes, to the extent that HPV causes cervical cancer, it's an std. To the extent that it's not an std it doesn't cause cervical cancer.

There's other types of cancer that cause oropharyngeal cancer and are related to oral sex by the way. Same mechanism, so PSA if you love your partner don't be rough with them, you can literally hurt them in irreversible lasting ways.
It's simple, just grab all of S3.

Yeah it's hard to see how any French official would have authority to conduct searches 10 meters beyond French borders, let alone over all of Uber's computers located in dozens of other countries.
Because they are idiots who want to sell fewer cars. That's the only possible actual story. And the second bit is they want all your data so they can try to sell it.

GM will not come close to matching Apple or Google on user experience and people will be less likely to choose their cars.

Also this interview sucks. The interviewer asks almost zero questions relevant to consumers, and the interviewee gives non-answers to all of them. When he finally gets to something consumer-relevant he simply spews corporate BS.

I mean what is this word salad?

"Because there was a belief and a hypothesis, which I genuinely believe in, that we are best positioned and owe it to our customers to create the most deeply integrated experience that you can create with the vehicle. We are not shipping devices with just monitors; we’re not a monitor company. We’re building beautifully designed, complete thoughts and complete convictions. We say, “This car is designed to do the following things awesomely.” This is Silverado, this is what it stands for and this is what it does. Let’s get to it."

Silverado is a pickup truck. What is the rest of this crap in the context of a stereo? Car makers have made compelling UIs exactly ZERO times in history (No, Tesla sucks too). They have made ones that stay up to date even fewer times than that.

"Okay, so I’m doing highway trailering, but let me flip to a totally different user interface to pick my podcast".

So, why aren't the trailer settings on high quality dedicated controls like they used to be? Why a touch screen for that at all? That's crazy. And if you want to display information it's all on the same screen and you hit a second button. This is not a problem users have.

Also, none of this answers the question of why not include it in the first place. The asshole even says says "I can appreciate when you’re in that one-off rental car that you don’t want to be driving but is the only car that’s available when you land, be my guest. Use projection." but won't put it in his own company's vehicles? What a fucking dickbag.

And when the interviewer actually pushes: "It seems like you’re burning the bridges, but you’re burning the bridges to a lot of other experiences that people have in cars." the guy spews more bullshit:

"The one thing that I believe and encourage our partners — and we work very closely with Apple, Google, Amazon, Spotify, and others — to believe is that some of those pieces of information and preferences should be accessible to other devices that you choose to use. I don’t think they need to be locked in this walled garden of a single domain. I personally believe I should be able to take my podcast preferences from one podcast app to another. I always find it interesting that some of these very generic preferences I declare are locked and loaded, especially for non-specific content."

GM is clueless. This guy is clueless.

I think this is an example of law lagging technology. A warrant gives the police the right to inspect and seize contents of a safe inside a house. Similarly, the law should be updated so that a warrant gives the police the right to inspect and seize contents of local computers. Local computers surely have valid certificates that allow the computers to connect to the mothership, right?
Indeed. We've arrived at the terrible situation that no software, not even OSS software, can be trusted not to spy on you. But at least Debian does their best to inform you about the exposures.
Define « too much ».
I don’t disagree with you that we are currently only looking for life like our own, but « too much » makes it sound like this is some form of short sightedness, whereas it’s just that trying to find something we can’t define is basically impossible.
We can define life as it is on earth, and we have proof it’s possible.
It might be an outlier form but it’s the only one we can effectively look for.

Thanks you, love the feedback! Will add the license.

Let me know how it goes if you try it.
I don't think this is that helpful a framing of the situation. We don't know if or when a cryptographically relevant quantum computer (CRQC) will be developed, but if it happens, it will be a very serious problem for most of the encryption we are currently using.

While it's true that as far as we know, symmetric encryption is likely safe from quantum computers (assuming the algorithm in question is safe from classical computers), in a huge fraction of cases the symmetric encryption keys were established using asymmetric encryption, which are vulnerable to quantum computers. But in this case it doesn't actually matter that the symmetric algorithm is secure, because once you have the key you can just decrypt directly without attacking that algorithm. In particular, this is the case for much of the encryption protecting your Web browsing and instant messaging traffic.

As noted in the article, there are new "post-quantum" algorithms which are designed to be resistant to quantum computers. However, they are just being rolled out now and so (1) a lot of current traffic is still vulnerable (2) anything you sent in the past with the old algorithms is vulnerable and there's nothing to do about that.
