There's also plenty of evidence (like TFA and [2]) of "junk" DNA turning out to be functional through some contrived and completely unexpected mechanisms.

> it's not like Democrats do more than talk about fixing problems most of the time.

Obviously, when speaking in generalities, this always just turns into a Rorschach test online, so won't enter into that debate.

But when looking at Obamacare/ACA specifically, I think its mere existence would disprove the point you are trying to make. Obama and the Dems put a ton of political capital into trying to actually do something about healthcare in the US. And, again, to the point that it's quite rich for Americans to bitch about the state of healthcare now, the Democrats got pretty destroyed in the 2010 Congressional elections specifically because of Obamacare. As stated above, Obamacare is not perfect, but it drastically reduced the percentage of uninsured Americans. Sorry, but I think any attempt to "both sides" on this specific issue is complete nonsense, and the historical record shows that.

Very open to considering any reasonable attempts at all by the Republican party as a whole or even any individual Republican states to improve healthcare or lower the cost of it in this country in the past 20 years. I am just not aware of any.
this is such a crazy good take , I was thinking of creating a golang based module loader / code loader directly from a sqllite file and a tool / cli that can help you with this thing where what I intend to do is lets say my cli name is goter (go + motor IDK)

goter init (creates a sqllite and a main.go etc. but all main.go etc. are just a symlink to something inside sqllite I am not sure , its just a really really hypothetical idea)

goter add dep <some dependency>

(which it also then loads in that sqllite file)

goter run main.go (which can run)

goter share (which can output a sqllite file)

goter load .db file (which could even have whole golang versions inside of it)

goter build docker (creates a docker image , if possible)

goter collab ipc (creates a ipc gateway between two servers using something like piping-web if behind nat or directly as well) (to have really easy multi deployments)

and integration with popular tools like go-blueprint / even the ability to create custom templates like go-blueprint if possible since clack has been migrated to go by some guy.

this doesn't have to be golang specific , it can be language agnostic.

My thoughts about this were creating a dead simple cloud editor / code runner (where the code runs inside bubblewrap) and this has the golang code and the whole codebase of a single user is just a sqllite file , insanely simple to transport , Insanely efficient.

I am not sure if this makes sense , but you have guided me in a direction that feels just as enlightening as the day I discovered cosmopolitan project on hackernews / redbean (offtopic) (cross platform executables say what!)

THANKS A LOT , I AM BOOKMARKING THIS , THIS IS SO SO GOOD OF AN IDEA THAT I MIGHT'VE LOST A BIT OF MY MIND AT 1 AM Comprehending how good of an idea this might be.
Wait you are missing an instrumental point.

The “razor and blades” pricing is (as the market demonstrates) a dominant strategy. The other pricing strategy (cost-plus) is preferable for the customers printing a lot, not for customers who print little. Then add some customer myopia: I need a cheap printer, where cheap is initial out of pocket, not total cost of ownership. And there you have it: all suppliers ‘must’ follow the dominant pricing strategy because the myopic customer demands it. The twice as expensive printer up front just won’t get store space.

Brother might be (or, was?) somewhat of an outlier for the informed consumer. But who buys a Brother right? HP and Canon dominate the market.

General point is that individual suppliers in a multi supplier market have to take the dominant pricing strategy as a given, or differentiate along other axis.
Think you are being downvoted because technically an LLM stands for Large Language Models, while image generation is something like LDM latent diffusion models or most people just say Stable Diffusion. If you would have said the more generic ChatGPT then the answer would have been maybe since its supposed to be Multi-Modal. If you are asking if Stable Diffusion could generate pictures based of the article description the answer is most likely yes given the prompt correctly parses the context correctly (maybe using an LLM for getting the prompt before feeding into the next tool).

I hear almost everyone call everything ChatGPT no matter what they are using (MS, Google Gemini, Ollama, etc…) ChatGPT made me a PP, ChatGPT made this image, so maybe if you want a general term ChatGPT would be more correct. I typically say ChatGPT for LLMs and Stable Diffusion when talking to normal people since most are familiar with the big two. Predicting the next pixel to draw is sorta like predicting the next word (token) I guess

Most people know what you mean, but still good to use the correct term. Disclaimer so I do not get downvoted with you: Please do your own research as I just wrote how I understand these concepts and am not an expert.
If a foreign state actor gets someone illegally elected in a separate country with dirty money, this is not an "accounting issue".

Easily disproven by repeating the search in Romanian. Again, on google I get mostly results about Kremlin foreign election interference, while on yandex I only get relevant results. I tried several combinations of keywords.
> AMD and NVIDIA are fabless. They are not comparable.

Which is why I said:

> You can compare just the Intel Products head count (excluding the fabs).

Both AMD and Nvidia have under 30K folks. Intel has what - 115K employees? I can assure you that 85K of them are not working in Foundry. TSMC, BTW, has 76K employees in case you want to do a Foundry comparison. Anyway you slice it (compare products or compare fabs), Intel is wasteful.
UUIDs aren't technically unique, they're just designed in such a way that the chance of collisions is very small.

A big part of this is that the possibility space is very large, so the chance of collisions is low. Many UUID versions also determine parts of the UUID via MAC addresses and timestamps, to ensure that different servers are highly unlikely to generate the same UUID.

Every politician in Romania has a "pro Moldova" attitude and even a pro-union attitude (there's no legal mechanism to make this happen, so it's very shallow).

In Moldova, where lots of people have Romanian citizenship as well, Lasconi received 56.5% of the vote, while Georgescu received 3.11% of the vote.
Exactly. I would be surprised if frankly Tesla's cost to open a decent supercharging station (6-10 stalls or something) is greater than the cost to open a 4 stall gas station.
> Building Chromium takes more RAM and HD space than most people even have.

According to [1], it takes 16GB of RAM and ~180GB of disk space. Most people have that much. It does take several hours without a many-core machine though.

Building Linux takes much less.

Same here for my wisdom tooth but very clearly remember them mentioning there were two options (one like you described and one where I would be out completely). Absolutely zero connection to the current discussion.
Eh, all of pages 28, 29, 30, and 31 are dedicated to the question, they just choose not to come to a definite answer. It's not like they didn't think about it.

Not to say that you couldn't be right, them both landing on intermediate scrutiny is just not how I read the tea leaves.
They are not, 100% strictly speaking, “ensured”. But they are 128bit numbers, so you have realistically no chance of generating a uuid that someone else has already. Age-of-the-universe type chances of duplicating one.

The entire world is based on cooperation even with nations one may not like. China, for instance, is the manufacturing backbone of the world - to say nothing of being the primary source of many critical elements, such as those used in electric batteries, solar, and so on.

And war between the US and China will also happen as soon as China moves to reintegrate Taiwan, and the EU will again be expected to work as a tool of the US, to its own detriment.

Will you then say that the EU should have done away with cheap Chinese manufacturing and resources earlier? And claim it was some sort of a Trojan Horse? Or will at some point the EU consider putting EU interests first?

Also a $200 tax stamp for each suppressor. Again, someone COULD buy a manufactured suppressor legally and tie all their credit info and everything back but according to the news this shooter:

2. Used a fake New Jersey driver's license to register at the hostel he was staying at

3. reportedly wore a mask indoors consistently while staying in the hostel

4. paid cash for everything
As a general rule of thumb, for 8-bit quantization you’ll need as much VRAM as the parameters of the model. Half that if you run it at 4-bit. System RAM should be a bit more because you need RAM for the OS too. What most users do is go for second hand 3090s. You get two or three of them depending on quantization.

That's not what's being disputed and I completely agree with your sentiment. The issue is that electoral campaign law was not respected and thus the elections were not considered "free and fair", but tainted by this shady candidate.
wow the idea of shipping a snapshot is also crazy good , bookmarking your comment as well the parent comment as well.

Because snapshotting is a rather crazy thing which have to be managed by criu or qemu

this could even be faster than a vm shipped.

MY goal with snapshots can be literally anything (yet , I like the idea of extraction snapshots for extremely large files very lucrative idea)

Don't know about the latter, but I notice your question seems mighty grey… I'd be shocked if HN, of all places, was exempt from internet meddling. It seems to me to be fruitful ground for manipulation, and for years now I've seen an interesting 'double face' of Hacker News: on the one hand, inclined towards techno-optimism, but on the other hand, the pressure to manipulate viewpoints seems nearly Reddit-like in its focus and determination. It's a bit like Fight Club: the first rule of downvoting suggestions of interference is that you must downvote any suggestion of coordinated interference even before you use voting to push any other desired purpose.

I think this is salient to the question and to the fact that it's a discussion on the subject of interference causing a Romanian court to annul the results of an election, but I'll accept correction if my observations are out of line even in this conversation :)
EA is a pathetic failure because it was the punishment for Volkswagen for the emissions scandal. They were obliged to do it, not chosen.

What are you referring to by "birth rate"? Are you referring to the general society-wide system of babies being born? Or are you referring to a specific metric relating to how many babies are born?

From definitions I find online, first order vs second order refers to systems. So if you're applying those adjectives to a specific metric, I'm not sure that's correct.

I don't think we can say that people "universally" agree about what metric the term "birth rate" should refer to, because different people in this thread are using the term to refer to different metrics. However, I do think that generally the term "birth rate" refers to the number of babies born per year (or other unit of time), and the term "fertility rate" refers to the number of babies born per woman. Fertility rate is actually somewhat more complicated than that, because it takes into account the different fertility rates for women of different ages, and then sums those together, to simulate how many children a woman would have who passes through all the different ages.

Compare this to someone who controls the only available lifeboat while others are drowning. The person in control may not have pushed anyone overboard, but if they refuse to help—especially after taking on the explicit role of “we’re here to help if something goes wrong”—they carry moral responsibility for the resulting harm. Insurance companies are not random bystanders; they are paid entities agreeing to intervene financially on behalf of the patient. Their explicit role makes their refusal to pay not merely passive, but an active withholding of assistance they were entrusted (and compensated) to provide. An insurance company knows full well that refusing to cover a critical treatment will likely result in the patient’s deterioration or death.

Remember Asimov's rules? A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. They are one and the same.
That seems like a fallacy to claim to know that there is in fact junk dna.
To know that: you need to iterate over every possible function for a section of dna could have and test against that.

How is it known that there truly is junk dna?
Attempts to ban AfD (which is projected to take the second place), "firewalled" LePen's party which has won with 33% of votes and has zero political power, and now this. And people wonder why trust in the "democratic" system gradually falls and anti-establishment sentiment is on the rise.
It would be strange if they didn't also use these models to generate much more sophisticated models of their user's interests and hyper-targeted advertising that always looks and feels like trusted friend recommendations for the exact product that's been missing from your life.

Pre-registering is annoying to handle, and compression already de-duplicates these very well. Alternatively the logger can track every template logged in this file so far, and assign it an integer on the fly.
Yeah, I at first, I though I knew exactly how it worked. Then I saw the search field, and I suddenly had no idea what the hell was going on. Now, the big question, do I want to spoil the magic trick and read how this was done, or should I keep being astonished and flabbergasted?
> it isn't killing someone.

It is absolutely killing multiple people yearly.

If I withhold water from someone dying of thirst, who I promised to give water to, who paid me for that water, I've killed them when they die. I may not have plunged a knife into their heart but they'll be dead all the same directly from my actions.

If an insurance company does not pay for the medicine and treatments they say they cover, that they payed to cover, and people die from that, they are responsible for those deaths.

A serial killer kills less than the medical health industry does. That doesn't make them moral, it highlights how immoral the current healthcare system is in the US.
Statistics doesn't work so well on things with unknown unknowns.

Actuarial science works super well on predicting life expectancy of an average person, because we have a lot of data on when people die. We might not know when a particular person dies, but over a large number of persons the numbers are known and computable.

But we don't know how toxic a substance is, and we really have no idea, and the result hinges on the toxicity of a single substance. In theory we could reduce chances of adverse outcomes by using a mix of unproven chemicals and hope that the bad ones are dilute enough not to cause problems, but I think in practice it would just lead to the worst of all posibilities...

My bad, I thought it was 6 months. Okay, a bit too often, but no reason why debian folk can't update it more often than it is now.
There has to be more to it than that. I seriously doubt that the entire country of Romania is sitting on TikTok, and was so easily swayed.

Also, when I hear "looks to be funded by Russians and Chinese, no proof so far but it seems quite credible". Sure, anything is possible. But how can it be credible, if no proof so far, as you say.

I am no expert on anything Romanian, but my skeptical bells are going off when I hear this.
If campaign material was not capable of changing the minds of the electorate, nobody would waste time effort and money on it.

Free speech is valuable and worth defending specifically because it has the potential to change minds, not just because people like the sounds of their own voices.

(For the recent US election, people also point to Musk buying Twitter and getting his president of choice and saying this demonstrates why Musk is smart and $44bn was worth it, so are you sure it wasn't won by the biggest spenders?)
It's not really that different from a musical instrument. The camera might be finicky but you need to get to the point you're not focusing on the camera and it just becomes a tool that is there. The way digital photography has turned into a measuring contest where everyone is always getting the newest gear doesn't help with that.

This argument is weak. Editorials are marked as such. The board makeup is known. Tiktok is a platform wherein its impossible to know which content is organically popular and what is being artificially weighted, we have no insight into who is doing the weighting, and which pieces of content are controlled by state media.

In short, you have no idea whether it is more or less editorialized than other news outlets, and that's the central issue here.
It gets real fun when it's something you need to look up and have match, like a username.

Because then it to be normalised in the right way for comparisons to work, or it will only match if your input method happens to produce the exact same variant.

... And unicode is an evolving standard where this normalisation sometimes changes between standards, so the names as normalised in the old version of your standard library might disagree with the new version. So you need to care for that transition.

... And often this is implemented separately for different languages, so you can get names that won't match if you normalise them in python, java or C.

... And as all implementations, these unicode implementations sometimes have bugs, so you need to think not only about matching supported unicode versions, but matching bugs.

... And any change in these normalisations can in theory lead to two usernames that used to be distinct becoming identical.

It's a deep well
Can you explain exactly how that comment is an example of what you are talking about?
I’m working on a project now where we have to take the topics in algebra 1/2 and geometry (high school mathematics) and connect it to real-world activities in science, tech, business, etc.

This has been fun — but harder than anticipated! While some topics are clearly and deeply useful, many topics are very difficult to connect to practicalities. And, conversely, some of my favorite math — math that underpins key technologies we use everyday —just isn’t part of the high school curriculum.

It makes me wonder why we teach the high school math that we do— and whether there is a more elegant or effective curriculum we should consider. (For instance, I’m fond of the classical quadrivium)
