Removing this feature harms user agency. This will result in Firefox users having to deal with more annoying consent prompts.

Transcend Consent Management's default configuration opts users out of every unessential tracking purpose (and suppresses automatic consent prompts) whenever DNT is enabled, but only opts users out of "Sale/sharing of info" when only GPC is enabled.

Removing this centralized privacy signal means some users cannot express full opt outs to Transcend Consent Management by default without having to interact with annoying banners.

I believe this change was steamrolled without taking in proper consideration and feedback from the web community. Mozilla made this change so fast that barely anyone noticed the issue before it got closed[1]. To add insult to injury, they've
configured their Bugzilla to disallow further comments from non-Mozilla employees after issues are closed.

I shared similar feedback with the Chrome team in 2023 when they were proposing to remove DNT[2]. They considered my feedback and currently DNT is still in Chrome, with its removal indefinitely postponed.

What's the best way to solve the engineering issue of high load on any given system?

Reduce or eliminate the load.

Of course insurance will reduce their load with tactics such as deny, deny. But systemically, there's a better, good-faith way.

IMHO, without getting into all the nitty gritty details, the good-faith way to improve a ton of healthcare is to extend the efforts of fortification in common foods, expand people's consumption of healthier foods (more plants that provider fiber + minerals), improve people's abilities and motivation around healthier lifestyle choices (exercise, sleep), and significantly reduce or re-engineer illness-causing agents (plastics, VOCs) in our daily lives.

The challenge is how to implement these things in a balanced and sustainable manner, while keeping most industries relatively happy. Of course this would take a decade or more, but the knowledge is out there from some very competent healthspan PHds/MDs and a variety of scientists.

In my personal opinion, if all we did was increase consumption of sulfur, protein (especially collagenic sources), we would improve a tremendous amount of health outcomes drastically. Asian countries are a great example where the food actually has sulfur and collagenic sources built into their culture. Koreans consume cabbage 3x/day (cruciferous veggies with sulfur) and traditionally consume a bone-broth (collagenic) type of soup with 1-3 meals on the daily. I could outline the science here, but a huge amount of chronic illness, such as the shooter's mother may have seen some relief with some of my aforementioned efforts.

The way we can take for granted iodine deficiency because they added it to salt, we really need to do that for others. Omega 3s within milk these days is also a good path forward.
The philosophy could be separated in concept. My point was that, in reality, it absolutely was not.

The claim "The Unabomber manifesto had nothing to do with bombs" is one of fact and easily refuted by history.

In a parallel universe, someone else could have penned similar ideas and not conducted the bombings. In this universe, the bombings were entirely motivated by the ideas stated in the manifesto.

I’ve used AI art generation to make birthday cards for all of my nieces and nephews, to entertain my friends (making them into crappy superheroes, anime girls, etc.), to quickly “brainstorm” logos, make assets for an app I’m making…

I'm skeptical of "doing your own research" on scientific topics. Most of us lack the background to even read primary sources.

In this case, the background required isn't really about climatology, but just to judge whether a conclusion points in one direction or another. That is something that we can probably participate in, even without any climatological background.

But that also limits the breadth of our conclusion. We can infer that the papers all point in the same direction, but we can't rule out the possibility that contradictory papers have been systematically excluded.

It seems to me "common sense" that a conspiracy that universal and pervasive is effectively impossible, especially given that the motives suggested for it are absurd. But "common sense" isn't an argument, and many people "do their own research" and conclude that such a conspiracy is not only likely but certain.
And precisely what wise, intelligent definition of "moral justice" includes shooting people on the street?

The answer is: none. This wasn't some elaborate ethical act, nor is the pathetic justification of it online. It is boring old mob mentality, combined with class resentment and a number of other things.

As patio11 made abundantly clear in his article, banks are not homogeneous in their preferred customers, their ability to serve specific needs or their tolerance for risk. It may well be true that some banks don't like non-resident customers, but many banks offer products specifically tailored for these customers.

I think mr. Dykstra [1] (not Dijkstra), needs to be more well known. I have some olive trees, just a hundred of them, not much, but some are monsters. There are several mistakes farmers make, that over the long run compromise the health of the plant.

See also [2], somewhere there he mentions California lemon production, but it may be in another webinar.

The proposal of Italian gov to kill many other plants around, stems right out of the Dark Ages. Governments of course have proven repeatedly how well they understand complex systems, Covid was still hunted down after years of spreading to the population, while i have calculated using just my mind in 10 minutes, that given an incubation rate of 2 days, 63 days maximum and it has spread to every person on the planet.

Anyway, we are gonna replace governments with 100 lines of code soon, and the problem will be solved.

> Or the internet, media really over-estimated this persons competence.

definitely this one. there was a lot of projection of competency onto him, wanting him to be some kind of superhero assassin that would disappear. when in reality, he wasn't using that welrod pistol clone, and his gun was jamming with every shot.

but also he was self-destructive and definitely wasn't trying hard enough to not get caught. and that comes with the territory because you're not going to be well-adjusted and decide to assassinate someone in broad daylight. and i would pick self-destructive over arrogant. and he may just have not realized how distinct his facial features were.

So what you are saying is some aspects of movie making will use AI as parts of their jobs. That is very realistic and probably already happening.

Saying that large video models will be in theaters sounds like a completely different and much more ambitious prediction. I interpreted it as if large video models will produce whole movies on their own from a script of prompts. That there will be a single film maker with only a large video model and some prompts to make the movie. Such films will never be in the theater, unless by some grifter, and than it is certain to be a flop.
I appreciated a lot reading your comment. I feel silly sometimes when I use months of time to write something like LOAD81, I question my sanity, but then I see that other people had some good time with it and I'm so happy: and also I'm sure that I used my time in the best way.
HTMX has a ceiling on how interactive/complex you can make your site [1]. If you know you will never need to exceed those sure. However I like to use nextjs as it gives me the peace of mind I will always be able to pivot or implement whatever the customer wants.

Bots don't independently invent opinions separate from the people running them. Not even with LLMs. "Bots" are just sock puppets - people creating multiple identities for themselves so they can ballot-stuff the Court of Public Opinion.

So it's not so much that there are no real people who want to hunt down the snitch, but that there's a very loud minority of performative extremists with an army of sock puppet accounts who want to hunt down the snitch.

Retail brokerages earn most of their money from uninvested cash from their customers. An easy strategy is to force customers to keep a few percent of AUM as cash.
It's a good, understandable paper. The main issue with chain-of-thought (which I think is a solid approach, and one that needs to take place) is that we ourselves aren't necessarily 'trained' on chain-of-thought. Yes, we do learn mathematical proofs and reasoning at some point (usually), but most people settle on latent thinking without training, and switch between the two modes naturally. My intuition says we're missing something, but who knows
> Although, anti-tracking in general is basically fighting a losing battle. Go to https://amiunique.org/ and you'll see why.

The goal shouldn't be to appear non-unique. There are too many little things that will out you. Even if you somehow account for every single one of them today your next browser update could enable more and you can't trust that amiunique.org is looking at every identifying data point either. It's an arms race you're going to lose.

What you want is to be differently unique for each website you visit. Even better if you have JS disabled by default and sites can't collect 90% of the data points your browser exposes at all. The best protection you could get would be to change up IP addresses via VPN and randomize your user-agent and other tells.
Pretty interesting visualization. I wonder if you could indicate better that the dial can be interacted with via the mouse?
I didn't miss that. They get the bonus that are being paid now on terms that were set a few years ago. The unions didn't complain then (remember that the unions have board representation). Complaining long after the contract has been signed is just shitty.

The bonuses to be paid sometime in 2026 or 2027 based on the results from the near future are unlikely to be big. It's fair to complain about those — those are negotiable now.
Sure. NYPD is doing the rational thing in a society that treats the murder of a wealthy CEO as a much worse crime than the murder of a semi-homeless maybe-illegal immigrant.

And in a society that strongly valued equality before the law, they wouldn’t dare treat the two cases so differently. Thus we can see that we don’t live in such a society.

I don't want to put you on the spot too much, but can you speak to why he included the part about many-worlds in this blog post?

I don't know enough about Google to say if maybe someone else less technical wrote that, or if he is being pressured to put sci-fi sounding terms in his posts, or if he believes Google's quantum computer is actually testing many-worlds, or some other reason I can't think of.
One time a bank tried to stop me from moving my money to a new bank. It was reasonable for security to be high, of course, but not prohibitively so. After an in-person visit and a 30 day waiting period they "rejected my request," no reason given, no response to my request for a reason given, and told me to try again in 90 days.

Someone on HN suggested getting the comptroller involved. I think I found a state office called the comptroller, but it might have been the federal one? In any case, the moment they showed up in a conference call the bank transferred me to someone important, stopped fooling around, and made the transfer happen. The person at the comptroller office never got past the asking questions stage, but the bank's behavior changed immediately in a way that suggested they recognized the smell of authority. So that's my keyword suggestion: comptroller.
This is a great video.

The main point is that fire departments oppose bike lanes and safer street designs because of their unnecessarily giant fire trucks.
> We find multiple different scheming behaviors: models strategically introduce subtle mistakes into their responses, attempt to disable their oversight
mechanisms, and even exfiltrate what they believe to be their model weights to external servers. Additionally, this deceptive behavior proves persistent.

Interesting work on attempting to quantify misalignment. Keep in mind:

> Our evaluation scenarios are purposefully simplistic because we want to catch the
earliest signs of scheming capabilities. This implies that the scenarios are quite toy and not representative of real deployments. For example, in our scenarios, situational awareness information (e.g., knowing about its goal misalignment and its supervision mechanisms) is provided very explicitly.

"I tracked my Sunday work day" - that's all I needed to skip this one lol.
(I have not done the math:) If you factor in 20-30 years of education that each typical white collar human requires as an entry point into their field, and the energy that goes into that, and the energy that goes into the continued upkeep of that human, the billions of seconds you can shave off menial work by pushing it all to an increasingly efficient AI are probably easily worth it, from a purely ecological perspective.

Did you put the email and its full headers in the google email analyzer [1] and does it show anything odd or interesting? Another option is to put the email and headers into Spamcop [2] and let them decide if it should be blocked.

As to what game they are playing, it's probably just a poorly configured or broken spam script. Assume malfeasance, report them, block them and ignore. If you are feeling adventurous, create a throw away email, wipe all cookies and contact the "company" they are spamming but do not give them your email address or name ... but I would not expect to learn anything.

I know this debate is about the US banking system, but I feel the need to point out that in most of the EU, cheques basically aren't used, and business purchases are generally made by wire transfers.

Without a chequebook or credit card, you could offer a bank account without any risk that the bank would ever have to pay out more than its nominal balance. Bank runs could still be a problem, but I feel an appropriate pricing structure could solve that.
ok, now i can say for sure, you didn't read the site well at all. you didn't even read my answers well. maybe you would have understood that now mosfet level design is already happening but it only concerns the CPU (if you want to deal with the mainboard, fine, you will have read that it is open hardware). I don't understand what you need such low level technical details for, it is obvious that i am not here to share them. If you want to make a CPU do it too, in the end we will see who did it better. now excuse me I have some serious work to do.

Financial crimes are literally crimes that deprive people of their financial property. They are crimes because property is understood to have utility. This isnt rocket science.
You’re absolutely right — while most observability vendors support receiving data via OTLP, they often convert it into a proprietary data format. This strips away the power of OpenTelemetry’s semantic conventions, such as OTel Resources. These conventions are incredibly powerful for adding context and correlating metrics, logs, and spans seamlessly. If you haven’t tried leveraging them yet, it’s worth it — the difference is huge.

Another key source of lock-in is dashboards and alerts. Teams often invest time creating hundreds of dashboards and alerting rules, only to face the painful process of recreating them when switching tools.

At Dash0, we tackle these lock-in points head-on:
1. PromQL for everything — not just metrics but also logs and spans. Plus, you can import/export Prometheus alerts (as code), making it easy to reuse existing projects like Awesome Prometheus Alerts: https://samber.github.io/awesome-prometheus-alerts/
2. Perses for dashboards — a CNCF-backed open standard. You can import/export dashboards (as code), ensuring portability and independence from any vendor.

By adopting open standards like OpenTelemetry, PromQL, and Perses, you keep your observability stack flexible, portable, and future-proof — no more vendor lock-in.
The silence is deafening around here. Ironic.

Canada isn't hypothetical. It is very easy to compare costs and outcomes.

I live in BC, Canada, and we don't have an entire industry built around claims processing, administration, etc. They still pay health care workers, but they don't have to have phone banks filled with people answering questions about claim denials. I'm not even sure if a claim denial is a thing here, or who I would call. We don't have healthcare insurance CEOs making 23mm per year. We don't have customer service reps, we don't have billing specialists in every medical practice, we don't have medical coding experts. These things kind of exist in a bare minimum way, but not anywhere at the scale that I have seen in the US.

I go to the doctor, they make a medical determination about what my needs are, and we proceed from there. There is almost no fraud because the doctor has no real financial incentive to overtreat me, and since it is a single payer system, malicious patterns get picked up quickly and efficiently.

Keep in mind that each province administers their own medical system, so there is no such thing as the Canadian health insurance system.
