> How does the election tell you anything about the economy?

He didnt say it said anything about the economy, just the perception of it.

Now to answer that question, there is the simple old adage of "its the economy, stupid" that won Clinton his campaign. But the reality is that economy perception is always asked in polls, all year round. So trends can be established wtih decades of data. Secondly, voting attitudes can be understood through economic perception, when people perceive the economy is thriving incumbents do better seeing Biden's poll numbers anyone could tell that the economy perception was not good.

>Remote work is also much simplified.

No it isn't. Or more exactly, not my experience. Nobody hires remote workers in Austria for example due to labor and tax laws discouragin this.

If by simplified remote work you mean B-2-B contract from rich countries hiring cheaper labor in Poland, Bulgaria, etc then sure.
> Another potential use is immersive online shopping in virtual grocery stores. Users could touch a specific virtual food and be able to taste that item.

Are they imagining a world where everyone and their dog gets about 9000 hydrogel packs in the mail on a regular basis so you can virtually taste test everything in the store?

Even in a situation where a company sends me a single taste ad in the mail I'm not putting that in my mouth. Scratch and sniff by mail is already dubious.

Also the standardized taste test? What would be the difference between this and simply giving the flavor compounds in a disposable packet. What's the need for the device or the vr headset?

I guess I'm getting old grumpy but when I see these "neat projects" try to turn around and say how it could be applicable in the real world my eyes roll so far in my head I nearly go blind.
>“Not working” is obviously wrong because using brain is work, and it’s exhausting work in many cases.

"Exhausting work," lol.

If you define "win" as "everyone likes and agrees with me", it is true you will never "win".

I would suggest putting in the time to find a different definition of "win" for your life, rather than accepting it.
The historical notion of POD is that it's a class type that has no C++ shenanigans going on, and thus works like it does in C. As a result, while there are a few slightly different definitions of POD, all of them share the commonality that having a non-POD member makes the class non-POD; in other words, POD-ness has a recursive quality.

It doesn't make a lot of sense to not have this recursive quality to POD-ness, because the fact that C++ shenanigans are involved doesn't go away just because it's implicitly handled for you by the compiler.

I think they are suggesting using something like this, which does work to target certain attributes:

input[value="5"] {
width: 20%;
}

This could then be combined with the sibling selector to target the other one

input[value="5"] + input[value="11"] {
width: 80%;
}

Though I am unsure how to make it entirely workable (you probably need a simple event listener to set the DOM node value to the dynamic form value). Interesting exercise if nothing else, and I think it could be doable to reach a working solution.

> In this example, it seems to me that Christian morality leads to one result, and secular morality leads to a different result.

Can you provide examples of what different outcomes they lead to? Christian morality has been used to justify the Crusades, for example, how is that not as corrupt as secular morality?

Secular morality has very similar tenets to Christian morality, not harming others is as secular as is Christian, don't cause to others what you don't want to be inflicted upon you is very secular without any need to resort to Jesus to be as valid.

Perhaps without you defining what are specific examples of failures of secular morality this conversation won't lead anywhere, I don't know what you mean by it and hence know even less what you believe are the failures of secular morality.

> It seems like there’s some sub-rules that don’t exist in secular morality, perhaps because they’re difficult to justify without resort to fear of sky daddy.

Like what, exactly?
>> And what about this? Imagine a world where the especially blood-sucking CEOs have a 1/10 chance of being assassinated. Don't you think that the regular expectation of this might make them a little less blood-sucking?

> If you can fairly and correctly evaluate which CEOs are especially blood sucking, simply taking their money and sending them to prison for a while will have the same effect and be far less ethically dubious.

But that would require the buy in and cooperation of the state, which probably wouldn't work any better than the current political/judicial system, because elites like CEOs have disproportionate influence in controlling state behavior. The system is setup to primarily protect and serve people like them.

I think the GP's idea was to add an extra-judicial check on CEO behavior that could be implemented by a motivated individual, and thus would be much harder for CEOs to subvert. Even the threat of assassination could have a restraining effect, because who wants to live in a bunker surrounded by guards? The blood-sucking CEO wouldn't be able to enjoy his ill-gotten gains.

One (somewhat small) problem with the GP's idea is its focus on CEOs. One feature of capitalism is how it can obscure culpability and create scapegoats to misdirect anger and protect the principles. A CEO definitely has fault and responsibility for the company's actions, but he's ultimately a minion of the company's owners. Above the CEO things often get shadowy.

Not sure, assuming a change in context through useContext() directly counts as state change and memo does not prevent re-renders on state changes…

Generally, re-renders should not be a problem (assuming nothing changed for this component it is a no-op as far as its DOM is concerned), but that is a separate issue, I suppose. I did have to worry about re-renders on a few occasions (and it never feels great when you put effort into memoing each prop for reference quality, but something still causes a rerender from within).

If zoning allows a multiplex to be built on your lot, and you decide to sell it because the market values redeveloping it more than you value staying, then I think that's your decision.

In the big picture, if you want single-family suburbs to continue to exist and be affordable it makes sense to allow at least some places to become dense. The more people who want density and can choose it, the less competition there will be for farther-out suburban houses.
The real principles have always been a US dominated and controlled internet. The only ones who ever understood that and didn't sign up to Pax Americana are the Chinese who are building their own internet.
The US dollar is the world's reserve currency
So countries keep huge stores of dollars in their reserves because they need it for trade
Then what happens is the US starts the money printer to pay for US government services
This inflates the dollar and means that everyone who holds the dollar has lost value

Including Americans who are paid for their labour with dollars and do not own assets

So wealthy Americans/companies see an influx of money, asset prices rise and every other country gets poorer relative to the USA
This is the paragraph that stood out to me:

Writing frameworks feels good, productive, and best of all: it’s risk-free.

So before we start doing the hard work of actually having to write an application, why not spend some time considering what type of extension methods we’re going to need or what sort of data access patterns our application might use? We can submit lots of pull requests, get lots of green check marks, and even have unit tests to cover how our framework works so we get good test coverage score! Sure looks like productivity to me!

There was a Stanford study recently published here on HN stating that 10% of developers "aren't doing anything" and part of the measure was pull requests. Based off this paragraph from this article, I'm wondering if perhaps those 10% aren't perhaps the better developers? It would be kinda funny, in a sick way, if companies used pull requests to measure developer productivity and ended up letting go of their best developers.
Except we put up with network lag because it's an understandable, if undesirable, caveat to an otherwise useful technology. No one would ever say that because a network is sometimes slow, that it is then preferable to not have computers networked. The benefits clearly outweigh the drawbacks.

This is not true for many applications of LLM. Generating legal documents, for example: it is not acceptable that it hallucinate laws that do not exist. Recipes: it is not acceptable that it would tell people to make pizza with glue, or mustard gas to remove stains. Or, in my case: it is not acceptable for a developer assisting AI to hallucinate into existence libraries that are not real and not only will not solve my problem, but that will cause me to lose hours of my day trying to figure out where to get said library.

If pneumatic tires failed to hold air as often as LLM's hallucinate, we wouldn't use them. That's not to say a tire can't blow out, sure they can, happens all the time. It's about the rate of failure. Or hell, to bring it back to your metaphor, if your network experienced high latency at the rate most LLM's hallucinate, I might actually suggest you not network computers, or at the very least, I'd say you should be replaced at whatever company you work for since you're clearly unqualified to manage a network.

Resource issues because they don’t have the funding to pay for additional care of this type. Allowing private funding pushes the demand curve out and increases quantity supplied of the scarce resource.

Trade balance isn’t going to show a lot of what the US offers, which is not readily convertible to a numeric figure.

Changes in currency exchange rates are the best way I know of to get a pulse on what the collective population of the world thinks about what the US offers.

Things like choosing to do business in the US because they overall trust the courts, or investing in US companies because they overall trust the management and SEC oversight. Or even just investing in US land because they trust the internal stability and lack of external threats.
It's the gofundmes of people with cancer that paints the negative picture to me, not the young americans.

I’d argue hallucinations are unexpected in LLMs by the large (non technical) number of users who use them directly, or indirectly though other services.

It all depends on whose specification you’re assessing the “bugginess” against, the inference code as written, the research paper, colloquial understanding in technical circles, or how the product is pitched and presents to users.
I’m not sure the emphasis is quixotic. I would prefer to say myopic, but the myopia is understandable: human intelligence is the only intelligence we have any firsthand experience with.

One of the things I love about computer science is that it forces us to devise definitions—working definitions at least—so that we can move forward. What is intelligence? Turns out we don’t really know. What we do know about are TASKS or PROBLEMS, and that certain kinds of machines are more or less suited for certain problems. A human intelligence is one that can solve a large range of problems, but often only with training. Is the human mind a mechanism that we can replicate or is it something more? We don’t know. Are there other kinds of intelligence? Is intelligence just a matter of definition? We don’t know.

Personally, I think it is an exciting time to be alive, because these questions are no longer merely philosophical. And we finally have the ability to start answering them scientifically.

I am not a CEO, but I am pretty sure that after the company becomes a national entity there are some specific insurances specialized for this kind of individual and the board provides some security at company expenses [1].

For instance: The shareholders of Tesla know that it has a huge dependency on the services of Elon Musk, and the continuity and value of the business rely upon his ability to work (i.e. not being dead); I strongly believe that if the board of directors does not allocate security services to keep the continuity of his life (i.e. to keep him working) I would be surprised that it wouldn't be a gross breach in their fiduciary duties.

Okay so what? I appreciate good code, not old code. I needed to patch _some_ web browser a few years back, and had attempted Firefox first for kicks. It was a very painful experience, a few weeks no gain. The system design is arcane, all over the place. I later attempted the same with Chromium, and it worked out beautifully. I'd eventually opted for QtWebKit at the time.

There's no beating around the bush; Firefox code is horrible. You could make an argument that it is "tradition", of course. I'm not convinced.

>all growth from the next century is going to come from services

Why do I feel like many workers in the service industries are gonna be unemployed or working for pennies in the future following this hype leading to labor oversupply of service workers, while the likes of tradesmen will be making more money? There was even a south park episode about this.

The UK is already heavily fractured between the rich service based City of London and the rest of the country being relatively poor by comparison, especially the areas that suffered industrialization and haven't recovered and need constant subsidies from London.

Min-maxing a society like that doesn't usually end well but usually in some dystopian way, like rich workers needing to driver everywhere to avoid the masses of unemployed homeless people on drugs roaming the streets.

Not everyone can be a hot-shot banker or AI engineer, we should have career paths that can fit every level of skill and intelligence.
I really like the idea of ColPali and products building on it but I am still unsure about the applications for which it makes most sense.
