> the commenter's salient point still stands
Was I at any point arguing with the main premise he tried to make? No, and and I emphasized this a couple of times.

> Certainly the ballpark size of the ca 1897 population is relevant.

Sure, it is relevant to many things, however, the number that caught my eye (see my first comment here) was mentioning Einstein's blind spot and other "in his (Einstein's) time" yet continues to quote a figure that was false even when Einstein was but a baby, let alone "in his time" which I take as when he published his views on Zionism (on 1931).
There is no ballpark similarity in numbers _here_, which is what I commented on.

It's okay to get that number wrong but when someone points it out, I think a reasonable thing would be to either explain why the numbers do not matter in this case the explain why if did they chose to include that figure in the first place, or if the numbers do matter explain how it changes the rest of their argument.
> Your testing isn't good enough. I don't know who you are, what you are working on, or how much testing you do, but I will state with confidence it isn't good enough.

Yes, that is true. No amount of testing can prevent bugs in a complex enough project.

But this is no different in a monorepo or multirepo.

I apologise but I don't think I've understood your point.

Australia has been a petri dish for the testing of totalitarian-authoritarian policies and populist dogma since its inception as a nation.

Never forget that the Western worlds first, most successful racist genocide occurred in Australia, and the same racist reasoning that allowed it to maintain White Australia policies into the 80's are still being used to justify the slaughter of innocent human beings all over the world.

When the USA wants something dirty done, in yet another illegal war, Australia is ready with hat in hand, willful and subservient, to commit yet more crimes against humanity and get away with it.

Australia is where the apparatus designed, with intent, to massively violate the human rights of over a billion human beings currently operates, at insane scales, every second of the day. Australians are fine with it.

Unfortunately I cannot access this site.

Despite this I am interested in what their next console will be. If it's backwards compatible, I guess it will still be cartridged-based... or will they save on the pennies with a cartrige-less system (perhaps one with a cartridge slot.. another without)? I mean it can still be backwards compatible for online purchases.

Anyway - I look forward to a proper unveil of the system. I guess it will be announced after xmas to not affect sales on the switch one last time.

Will the new system be a handheld+tv system? Its very likely due to the success of the Switch. What new ideas could they be doing? I am expecting some new things. I wouldn't be surprised if it comes with some headstrap for VR. :-)

Sadly the only "issue" I have with Nintendo's new systems is that they make out its current gen, but it isn't long before it struggles to gain the same quality and performance of newer games down the line. How will be compare with the latest current gen systems, let along the new ones.
> if you cannot speak japanese and you live in one more-or-less big city, according to all the feedback I got, then, you are basically out.
> And anyway, you will never be a japanese.

I think you answered yourself that if you _can_ speak Japanese, things are different. The reality is that if you can speak Japanese, it's quite easy to be well integrated with the people. In your example, I don't know if the Romanian learned Spanish or everyone is speaking English but there is likely a common language. Making the reason "traditional culture and habits" and just not a lack of a shared language seems wrong to me, at least I feel quite integrated. Please stop telling people "they will never be Japanese" since it's blatantly wrong.
I'd consider continuous integration (people continuously merge their changes into main) to be one of the defining characteristics of a monorepo.
You have to understand how academia functions. It is not about what works, it is all about what is new or different in theory, regardless of what works in practice.

So especially when an already explored (and thus claimed) theory relies on scale and emergence, it becomes near impossible for academia to reach, not because of the scale of investment needed
you only have to look at physics to see funding is not a problem, but because the underlying theory is already done.

NN theory is not very different from what we had in the 80s. The scale is many many orders of magitude beyond when I was collecting floppies from all the lab's Macs in the morning to get the results of my overnight run.

Also, I don't think it's possible to perform any kind of backwards-compatible static analysis that would tell you when it's safe to just JMP. Unless you have full information, perhaps (at the very least everything already specialized).

Should data structure be part of data?
The word "data" implies portable information. We expect to be able to port data from a piece of paper to a spreadsheet or a text file, or from a persistence platform into memory. But what constitutes data - is the structure behind a piece of data part of it or separate from it ? If the former then shouldn't the structure be portable as well as the data ?

Humans are in the grip of self-inflicted systematic behaviour modification based on data; a social catastrophe. Jaron Lanier's clarion call has been coherent, articulate and prescient. And yet surprisingly people of all experience and intellects seem sceptical and unreceptive, even allowing for the resistance-to-change which he predicted. I live in the UK, have deleted various social media accounts, and have been a catalyst in passing the message on successfully to some others but the adoption rate is low. Might people's attitude towards change be different if it was more in pursuit of a positive hope and less in flight from a negative fear ?

The mediators or "MID"s proposed by Lanier and Weyl sound reasonable and natural in the future, but will surely need to be preceded by the adoption of some new simple, stable and transparent platform which has data dignity baked in and is intelligible and useable profitably by individuals rather than mediators - perhaps something like Sir Tim Berners-Lee's Solid. MIDs are likened for illustration to familiar organisations such as corporations, unions and guilds. My point is that such organisations were all built around the pre-existing commercial activity of individuals or small groups.

For individuals to own their own data requires that they should at least be aware of it; and preferably understand it too. It is reasonable to expect that individuals could understand their data at a high level, but understanding structure is more technically challenging and depends largely on the persistence platform. Persisted data is typically considered to be either loosely structured as in a data lake or a nosql database, or tightly structured subject to some data schema. The latter is easier to understand for inexperienced individuals but the trend of platforms over recent decades has been more towards the former, to avoid making the persistence rigid and brittle. The average data owner has little chance of interacting directly with persisted data structure unless they learn the details of, and become locked into, a specific persistence platform. In short the structure of persisted data is generally not as portable as the data itself.

A universal standard which allowed data structure to be represented alongside data in a simple extensible markup might solve some of these problems, with benefits including ;
a) allowing data structure to ported alongside the data it represents
b) making a single common data structure accessible to different persistence platforms for import/export
c) helping individuals to understand, shape and commercially leverage their data
How to Do Bad Biomarker Research
Seems to me that the better solution is to give parents the ability to observe their kids' activities, and for <16 accounts to be able to operate only when tied with an adult account, which can observe activity...

Of course many will say this can be abused, but all technology can be abused and the reason we're in this mess in the first place is because OS designers haven't figured out that the relationship between parent and child is an important one which should be strengthened, not made weaker ..

It is patently false that the loss of sovereignty is fictional. There is a loss of sovereignty by definition when the EU is a political entity with the power to enact laws. The issue is even being raised with a (growing) part of public opinion throughout Europe, and it continues today in the UK with, for instance the ECHR.

It is also patently false that immigration had nothing to do with EU membership. The surge of immigration from Eastern Europe was caused by EU membership (although initially the UK government could have imposed limits) and it also highlighted loss of sovereignty as there was nothing the government could do about it because of EU law.

Now, of course the government still controlled, and controls, immigration from outside the EU and they demonstrated that they were in fact in favour of high immigration despite what they said. This is a major cause of people voting for Reform UK instead of the Conservatives as already mentioned several times. That's why I have been saying that the result of this year's general election is a continuation of the issues at play since the Brexit referendum and even before that.

I am quite shocked by the obtuse reactions in this thread. This is still the very narrow-minded view that "we are correct they are wrong" that led to the Brexit referendum's result. Effectively, "we" are smart and correct and "they" are stupid and racist, without any attempts to try to understand the other side's point of view (which does not mean agreeing with it).

As an ironic side note, this is what "diversity" and "neurodiversity" in the workplace is all about: Bringing diverse points of view and listening to them instead of locking ourselves in our certitudes.

Ask HN: EU GDPR job vs. USA client passport photo
Hi everyone, I have a "I'm not a lawyer" question and I believe a lot of people with different baseline point of views can shed some light.

I have a conflict with one kind of situation. I would like to understand more and possibly counter my view, maybe some managers or directors will share some of their knowledge about the case. I think the problem is universal to EU in some way, but local laws of different countries definitely apply here.
I'm working in Poland on job contract (FTE), I don't have a company.
I work for software houses but I know similar situation happens in some IT companies with own brand hiring for themselves locally.

On the ground of polish law, the set of personal information an employer can request and cases in which the request may happen is limited.
I know some US (and UK also) companies require background check, which is a failure on the ground of polish law and cultural differences. This background check is usually done by some external company (there is one I know, but I guess there are more of them) and during that check they require hire history and ID/passport scan.

When they receive passport which shows face, name and birthday but with hidden serial number they fail the check. But even without that passport requirement, such background check is not normal thing to do. Normal thing to do is to conduct interview to assess skills, check from both sides for clear vision if the role is what both sides expect and then if offer arrives to pass personal info like identification details, address, in some cases family details (social insurance), tax info and previous employer job confirmation - not personal references - and HR document which is required by law and has a set of data required to confirm dates and positions of employee which has consequences for holidays or tax.
Background check mentioned is being conducted also after employee is hired but changes client of the company which is not a valid cause to request additional personal data from employee.

From what I know somehow companies try their best to don't care about what can be required and follow client requirements to do background checks and, I'm just guessing, they would direct their actions to fire or 'encourage' employee to resign if someone does not comply.

What are your experiences? What is perspective in EU country for which you know some work regulations?

Think of data like a Lego set; the pieces are the data and the instructions are the structure. Right now, people can take the Lego bricks anywhere, but not the instructions. Making both portable would let everyone build their cool ideas more easily, and maybe help people feel more positive about using their data creatively, rather than running from digital traps.
I'm not making an argument about fairness. It's clearly unfair. I also don't dispute that wealthy people benefit from exploitation, just like we all benefit from labor in low wage countries.

However, I do dispute that wealth extraction is the primary source of wealth for the wealthy. Just like an engineer can save 100k in monthly AWS charges with 15 minutes of optimization work a good capital allocator can transform pointless labor that produces little to no value into labor that benefits society. The optimization process is the same: the engineer saves clock cycles and the capital allocator saves labor hours.

Labor is necessary ingredient for wealth, but labor by itself produces nothing. That's why humanity has lived in mud huts for eons, despite working every waking hour.
What about non-mainstream social media? What about news services? What do you think would happen if we banned both, those people that get angry and addicted will just be happy and healthy? Or do you think corporations will find another avenue to try and manipulate people, which those people will happily flock to?

> if you are only making the argument you can detect true cases of LLM use without many false positives

this seems at odds with the ongoing issues at universities where professors blindly trust AI detectors that label their own work as AI generated. you'd think if it were that obvious, they would have high specificity.

with your dog example, children absolutely have to learn by checking with their parents - you show them a dog and teach them the word, they will apply it to cats and goats and you have to correct them.

you are like a child pointing at every animal and calling it a dog, but refusing to shift your position when your elders tell you no, that's a goat.

2012.. i am not a native english-speaker but white, in Tokyo for 2 weeks, staying in friend's apartment, not knowing a word except "Arigato". One day, In some very big shop, i was looking for some locally made hand cream, and after walking the shelves with hundreds of things only labelled in japanese hieroglyphs, i asked the lady on the cash-desk "Where are hand-creams?" and she showed me to one shelf full of Avon stuff (which i saw but avoided), and eventually at its end there were some others japanese. So i looked at there and picked one or two, choosing by colorfulness of the bottle :) All that time, a student-age-girl was staying at next row, keeping and looking at some pocket device in her hands, and when i finally picked something, she approached me and asked, in not-that-bad-english : "Excuse me, did you ask for a "hand cream"?

You know, this picking of any opportunity to train your hearing/speaking is.. amazingly diligent. And their curiosity also amazed me.

Ever since i'd like to try move and live there, but.. too bad it's very difficult to go to work or live there. Expensiveness is only one little part of it..

> it only works if you don't need to run the defers/Drop's/destructors/etc

Indeed. And the per frame cleanup is also language agnostic which adds overhead; it also must support both sjlj and dwarf frames[1]; it is also done in two phases: destructors are only run if an actual catch is found: an unhandled exception doesn't run destructors to preserve state in the core file. This requires a two-phase unwinding that again slows things down.

Another big bottleneck that might not be captured in OP test is that the unwinder has to take (or used to, things got better recently) a global lock to prevent races with dlclose, which greatly limit scalability of exception handling.

Still very nice improvements from OP.

Why not instead allow people to block words and phrases they do not like, or have a one click filter? That way there is no censorship, and people are free to block out and not see/interact with words, phrases, and ideas they don't agree with.
Not allowing as in "giving them permission", but "allowing" as in enabling them to do so.

Right now if a parent says "You can't have instagram. Because I say so." the kids answer will be "But I will be a looser noob if I can't. All my friend are on it. Jenny has 5k followers!"

Vs after the ban: "You can't have instagram. This is the law." "But mom! Some of my friends are on it. Jenny has 1k followers!" "Is that so? I will ask Jenny's mom if she knows about that."

It is not going to stop absolutely everything. (Same as prohibiting underage alcohol drinking is not stopping teens from drinking any). But it will put a serious damper on it and fracture the social networks into smaller more underground ones.
