This is a common claim, but it only ever seems to be made by people with a strong ideological commitment who are mad that the opposing commitment isn't banned on the site. In other words, the complaint is that we don't moderate HN based on ideology. Since to do that would contradict HN's reason for existing (https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&sor...), I'm not inclined to start.

The irony is that people with the opposing ideological passion—the ones you refer to as techno-libertarian pseudo-intellectual fascists—make exactly the same complaint that you do, just with the ideological bit flipped. They think that HN is (let me see...) full of uber sensitive, far left ideologues [1], not only socialists but delusional anti-socials [2], full of leftist ideas and anti-capitalism snark [3]. Virtually every leftist post is upvoted [4], anything that can be remotely considered right wing is automatically flagged and/or downvoted [5], and only the most extreme progressive positions can be posted here, because I have destroyed this site! [6]

It's not really ironic, because these perceptions are only opposed to each other on the surface—just one bit is flipped, as I said. The underlying mechanisms have to be the same.

> What are the implications of choosing one server over the other?

Unless you choose a political or spam-friendly server - it doesn't matter.

> Does this affect search and discoverability in between servers?

A little.

> If I really like Baking and really like Fencing as well, should I join the "Mastodon Baking" server, the "Fencing fans" server of a neutral one?

Shouldn't matter.

> Will the people on the Baking server start seeing me as some sort of outsider.

Never seen anything like this, but I can imagine if you choose a server associated with 'A' and leave a comment in a server where people hate 'A', they might have a prejudice against you, so it's better to choose a very neutral, general server.

> Can I restrict/split my posts between Baking, Fencing and general?

Use tags.

There's no algorithm, you follow people you like and block people you don't like.
I suggest you take inspiration from your competitor's documentation on the topic.

The only potential upside for me is the benefit of tax-loss-harvesting, since I do my own investing and stay in standard ETF index funds. I thought TLH was only relevant for the $3K limit for income deductions, but after reading Frec's great pages [1] [2], I see that it makes a lot of sense when you have a large capital gain in your future like a house or a diversifying stock sale that you want to accumulate losses for. They also answer a number of topics mentioned in the comments here and others not mentioned.

There's a good chance I will end up investing with you, but only with new income. It's not worth liquidating my current capital gains! I can also ensure I don't have cross-account wash sales by keeping my other assets strictly in ETFs or just don't sell anything.

I too hope that you will last long enough to make money in the other ways you are planning. Good luck!

Right, if we can even find the right publication search engine for the right area, then we're likely faced with a paywall with a dollar figure. I'd love a list of free resources for research.
That's incorrect. NVDA's stock price is based on its reported earnings and expected growth of said earnings. Furthermore, those who bought in during the initial AI hype were actually proven right fundamentally, and have seen their ttm net income per share jump from below 1% to over 10% of the price they paid in just 2 years. To say the fundamentals don't matter is a severe misunderstanding of the equities market.

I think you are way out of your realm of experience here.

Nope, schema changes are not that common compared to other tasks and will only account for a small fraction of your DBA's day. I can say this from copious (over 20 years) experience.

They will make FAR fewer mistakes than some random engineer. It takes less time (like a fraction, 1/20 or less) to validate and give feedback on schema changes than it does to untangle the mess that gets made otherwise, restore data from backups, go to meetings to explain outages to executives, etc etc so if you want to keep your DBA's happy and able to sign out of work at a reasonable hour, make sure they get to approve schema changes before they go out. Not to mention that very few engineers have a good understanding of schema design or how to write performant schemas, how to index data, etc. Getting a good migration the first time is just so much less painful and time consuming than trying to deal with bad ones.

Even if ads alone aren't able to offset infrastructure costs, they could still alleviate some of the financial burden. They'll be shown conversationally (examples showcased on website), instead of taking up physical space like banner ads or videos.

Also, you're right, user acceptance is important. After speaking with many users, it seems they're willing to make the tradeoff as long as ads are clearly separate from original LLM outputs, not overly targeted, infrequent, and accompanied by a clear reason for being shown. Also, only high-level contextual information + demographic data are shared. These requirements are definitely achievable.

Do you see a future where conversational ads can exist within AI-powered apps?

> Even if a whole series of killers mowed down 10 healthcare CEOs in a year, all that would happen is that healthcare executives would get hazard pay and big security details.

Not so sure about that. Anthem Blue Cross already reversed a decision about anesthaesia coverage [1]. And this killing is already likely to inspire a lot of people to ask questions about U.S. healthcare and demand a better system. So I actually think that just this one killing will already effect change.

Yep. It is not black and white
I believe `makemigrations` builds up its conception of "what the schema is" from the `CreateModel`, `AddField`, `AlterField`, etc. ops in the migrations files. But it doesn't incorporate `RunSQL` ops into building that model of the schema. If my migrations were just a bunch of `RunSQL` ops, I think `makemigrations --dry-run` would basically just see everything from models.py as always needing to be added.

This behavior is why `SeparateDatabaseAndState` is a necessary hack in Django: sometimes you need to do an `AlterField` where the SQL Django would generate is really bad, so you need to write your own `RunSQL` to do the right thing, but you also need Django to see the `AlterField` as applied or you'll have problems with future migrations.

I suppose I could modify my preference to "run makemigrations and then wrap every single op in SeparateDatabaseAndState", but that does not sound fun :).

Somebody died near where I live because LifeFlight aborted after a drone was spotted by the heli. Firefighters abort flights for drones too, it's really serious.

Technically true and a good thing to tell people who are burning out, but like always, different people need different pieces of advice at different times.

In my case, I mostly stopped my (sporadic) contributions to free software partly because I felt a sort of bystander effect where I assumed that other people would step forward and implement the features and bug fixes that I wanted.

However, in most cases this has not been the case and I think we've all seen issues that affect us that have been reported but unsolved for over a decade, if not forever.

So, in my case it is far more motivating to think that I have to step forward and do the work, because otherwise nobody else will.

Again, this is specifically for people in the opposite extreme of the open source contributor (de)motivation pipeline, so I'm not even disagreeing with OP, just hoping that other people do not get demotivated with this bystander effect.
The voters are for the most part uninformed, bordering on flat out ignorant. I feel safe in saying the experts who solve problems like this do know better than voters.
> "are assessed by the Pentagon yesterday to not originate in the US or any other nation"

This statement logically means that:

* The Pentagon assessed (determined) that X is true

* Where X is defined as "The drones do not originate in the US or any other nation"

That is different than the statement:

* The Pentagon has stated that (a) X is false, and (b) they have no evidence that Y is true.

* Where X is defined as "The drones are US military assets"

* Where Y is defined as "The drones originate from and/or are assets of a foreign nation or adversary."
I encourage you to try it. Because I wasn't sure, I already had (using the new 28 Years Later trailer) before I posted. You can use yt-dlp to see that the 480P YouTube version is AV1 at 572 Kbps, which is notably better than a DVD Video-compliant MPEG-2 encode from the highest quality source available.
That is not the stated goal of charter schools. They openly state private business can do better than government.
Basically yeah, there's some room for interpretation, but the key thing is the exact words the Pentagon spokesmen used are:

"at this time we have no evidence that these activities are coming from a foreign entity or the work of an adversary...these are not US military drones"

Please do go back and confirm.

I also think that any threat actor would attempt to dampen down alarm. GIVEN Putins proclivity and capabilities in convincing a cerain percentage of decadent western nations (tm) populations of certain scenarios in world power mongering, i dont see a brazen foreign drone surveillance campaign as out of the question.

Mind you, i did not allege that this is such, but that dismissal of such is currently impossible and unwise.

>(As a point, have you noticed how well many of the nations that lost, say, WWII have done economically thereafter? It's difficult to generalise but there are many instances from history where losers rise victorious from the ashes. It can be argued the Ancient Greeks benefited from Rome's takeover, in more modern times look at Japan's and Germany's prosperity. At war's end who'd have ever thought a German manufacturer would get own a large part of the company that made the amazing British Spitfire or that Germany would become Europe's biggest economy?)

Yep. James mays "The Peoples Car" goes into depth on this a few times. Comparing the economics of cars and car owners between winners and losers of WW2.

>For instance, take the current debate in Australia over nuclear power, it has become politically polarised to the extent that protagonists on both sides have upped the ante to a point where logical debate is lost in the noise. Both sides and the Country are losers.

Its terrible. We have been working towards good pro nuclear positions in this country for decades, and Dutton comes along and destroys them all with his crazy SMR proposal. And now, anyone who suggests that nuclear can be a viable alternative is branded the same as Dutton.

>Thus, Australia will only decide conclusively which technology it's going to follow long after the rest of the world has come to a definitive conclusion. Either way, the Country will have left the ball too late to catch, by then it'll be too late to develop sufficiently advanced tech to compete competitively. Australia has a long history in this regard, it seems incapable of overcoming this handicap. (BTW, this has little or nothing to do with the ingenuity or inventiveness of its citizens.)

Theres an old story that Mad Max had to become popular in the united states before Australians would go and watch it.

>Many argue that Australia has only a small population thus cannot complete with larger nations. To that I'd argue poppycock—look at Finland with Nokia and the Netherlands with ASML—the most advanced manufacturer of UV lithography in the world.

Australian government has this weird paralysis where they never left the colonial mindset. The question is not what should Australia do, its what would the UK or the USA prefer australia do.

>Rousseau in his Social Contract long ago defined what he called the 'national will'. Those countries I've mentioned have had and still have the national will to achieve those things whereas Australia does not.

Australia had a national will for like 12 non consecutive weeks in the 1920s.

>This is not a political statement but a fact based on observation. Why Australia prefers to dig minerals out of the ground and sell them unprocessed abroad or why it sells gas/LPG internationally thus upping its local consumption price (effectively to above parity) and significantly disadvantaging its own citizens—not to mention making local availability a major problem—is the 64-million dollar question. It's bizarre that the Oz population isn't up in arms screaming.

Ditto Uranium, Lithium etc. Its insane,

>Powerless, I only watch such debates in utter frustration.
Yep.
The US has been murdering civilians overseas with drones for over a decade.

Also, domestically, we have all sorts of school shootings, etc, that don’t make the news.

I’m sure if someone in power wanted to ban commercial drones, they could run a propaganda blitz and get the outcome you describe, but we’re pretty much a post-truth society at this point.
So, where's the line?

Or are you saying that there is literally nothing you consider acceptable to outlaw when it comes to what you're allowed to watch?
Companies should not be sending UAVs to anyone’s property without permission, period. This stuff needs to get sorted out in law and these bozos need to back off.
Mostly they do it by pension fraud and poor record keeping.
Why would one believe that US intelligence agencies have no information about extensive reports of drone activity near military installations? Given that this has been happening for a couple weeks now, and the military has said “these are not a threat”, the clearly more plausible explanation is that they know what these are, and they aren’t saying.

This is what the military does when they are testing classified military technology. “It’s not ours. It’s not the enemy’s. It’s not a threat. Nothing to see here.”

From Character.ai’s blog about safety measures they’ve taken since this law suit [1]:

“Over the past six months (…) we hired a Head of Trust and Safety and a Head of Content Policy and brought on more engineering safety support team members.“

Better late than never, but not by much. It’s not like they didn’t think about investing in safety before launch, they just didn’t prioritize it, to the public’s (and their brands) detriment.

I suppose this is why more legislation is needed in the AI space, because private companies can’t be trusted to prioritize public safety. Not everyone’s Apple.

Can you really assume they have no evidence?

You'd hope they'd have sensors and analysis capable of forming some conclusions, such as tracing the drones to a origin point, or classifying based on signature, etc.

They've haven't provided much and there's a lot of questions unanswered, but they've said unequivocally what they think the origin is not.
Honestly you can drive down the Gowanus expressway any day of the week in NYC and see these mysterious large drones somehow sitting up in the air for HOURS, silently. You can see their lights as they hover, if you are coming from the tunnel to the verazzano bridge. What kind of battery tech do they have! Who flies them??
Why should we attack Iran if they develop a nuclear weapon? That seems pretty unprovoked.
Back in the day, one of IBM's early databases worked by storing memory into the graphics buffer, outside the field of view of the monitor, because writing directly to that memory space was faster on the hardware than anywhere else. (My dad wrote it when working for National Mutual).

Tricks like these, intentionally causing overflows, used to be the norm. You've got a tiny bit of hardware, which makes it easier to reason about overall behaviour (until the inevitable BSOD). You can generally tell when its safe to blow up your whole stack. And that kind of thing is fine to do.
