Yeah okay - obviously varies by country although I think the opt-out mechanism is pretty universal.
I just used it (a day later). It's only available on the 1.5 model right now. If anything it found a bunch of cool articles on the subject matter that I could use on my own. The actual results from its research in the domain I was using were much better than the standard chat bot response that 1.5 or 2.0 gave.
Sandbagging is a superpower within reason under many circumstances. Most people would much prefer to get a quality promised deliverable on time or a bit early even if it's a bit longer than they would have preferred in an ideal world. (And, if they really do want to pull something in, you sigh and say you'll do your best but no promises.) If something really has a hard aggressive deadline, OK maybe.

But usually it's a case of it will probably take me this long to do a task. But there are some unknowables and someone I might have to lean on could have a sick kid for a couple days. Generally, everyone is happier if you underpromise and overdeliver including you.

An engineering manager I used to work with would drive me crazy because he had this idea of 90% schedules he got from somewhere. Which basically meant there was a 90% chance of meeting the schedule if nothing went wrong. (Which naturally mostly never happened.)
You’re replying to someone who presumably thinks that if they personally didn’t have religion, they would be an egotistic hedonist. They don’t realise that doesn’t apply to many other people. I think with people like that, we’re better off if they keep their religion.
Right, but if the vending machines with suicide pills are specifically for suicide, then the help of others is still very much necessary. And of course, you'd want to prevents kids and drunk people from using the machines, so you'd need some kind of a gatekeeper.

And that point you've ended up right back at MAID.
The cache behavior regarding the ordering of memory accesses cannot be configured.

What you can select when mapping memory is to make some regions uncached (with several variants, e.g. write-combining).

Some of the kinds of uncached memory regions, especially those whose names include "write-combining", implement weaker orderings of the memory accesses in comparison with how cacheable memory works on x86, where 3 of the 4 kinds of memory access reorderings are prohibited (i.e. all except that subsequent loads can be performed before prior stores).

However choosing a memory type with weakly-ordered accesses cannot increase the performance on x86, because the loss of performance by not using the cache is much greater.

The weakly-ordered accesses only recover a small part of the performance loss caused by uncached memory.
Programming becomes irrelevant as a career
Undisputed world champion and disputed world champion are different things than someone choosing not to compete. If you can’t compete, doesn’t matter the reason or excuses you can come up with, you are just not the world champion.
One major difference would be in how it is distributed. Rewind is an app you go find, install, and deploy. Not a lot of concerns around consent there.

Building it into the OS, potentially default on, is the same sort of technology. It's not the same sort of consent.
The answer would be the FAA for sabotage of an aircraft and the local sheriff for unlawful discharge of a firearm within town limits.

The FAA may have someone who knows, but the interesting people wouldn't be the ones to show up when there's no need for them to do so.

It's a little bit surprising to me that LLVM can't eliminate the grow_one check. It looks like there's a test ensure it's not needed in the easier case of vec.push(vec.pop()) [0]. With the iterator the optimization is handled in the standard library using specialization and TrustedLen[1].

Managers who don't know what their people are up to are the real problem. It's not hard, whether people are working remote or on site to track what they're doing. In my day job, we have lots of slackers who work full time on site. They rarely get anything done, but the remote workers get the scrutiny even though it's obvious they're producing.

> Are the signatures available to the end user?

That's up to your carrier.

In general "hosted" services will hide the actual token from the end user, though they may offer either filtering features or the ability to tag calls in the Caller ID based on their signature.

Trunking services designed to feed in to a customer-controlled PBX will usually offer either the same sorts of filtering/tagging or complete passthrough of the token.

I mostly browse HN and the linked sites on mobile Chrome with javascript disabled.

Many times I get a blank page or a turn javascript on page, and at that point I just hit back and move along. Sometimes, when the comments are positive or I think the content would be interesting to me, I use the Share feature to open the page on Firefox, for which I only have an ad blocker.

For sites I often use that require javascript, like HN or github, Chrome makes it very easy to enable javascript just for those.

For example, there was a link the other day about a new documentation site builder or whatever that I was interested in and all I got was a blank page. Closed the page.

As for the extra work, it depends on what you're building. For my side project I knew I wanted minimal js to begin with and was using django so making it non-js-enabled friendly was not a huge amount of effort for me. But I wouldn't consider it if I was using a javascript framework with server side rendering or any of that fancy new age stuff. That just creates more problems than it solves (ie the project may be dead before it goes public).

Quick edit: I write js for a living and I really like the language. As a user, not so much.

> This kind of thinking is like those who think deporting all illegal immigrants will not somehow significantly harm the US economy.

I do not support what prev commenter said, but also I don't think you can mix these things, it is not that obvious that unregulated illegal immigration is better for economy than legal/regulated.
That's the view from a country on the trailing edge. In Shenzhen, or Seoul, or Tskuba, or Tapei you'll find enthusiasm for technology.

Yes, "when they cannot reasonably be expected to prolong life" is key, since there's some discussion in other parts of the thread about withholding nutrition as a form of euthanasia, which Catholic teaching is very much not okay with.
Does it use external air?

Would this technically make it a fuel cell and not a battery, since some of the reactants are discarded :)
Would love to see the full paper for more details on how, but apparently they determined cells' fighting ability is controlled by their choice of fuel source.

Active T cells prefer to process acetate (via ACSS2 enzyme), while exhausted T cells switch to using citrate (via ACLY enzyme). Appears this choice isn't just about energy - it actually determines cell fate by affecting where acetyl-CoA accumulates in the nucleus, which then controls which genes get turned on or off.

The breakthrough is likely that this appears to be an active choice by the cell, not just a response to what's available. Best case scenario, we might be able to prevent T cells from becoming exhausted in cancer treatment by controlling their metabolic preferences.

The productivity increases of the modern times led to a corporate class. These oligarchs have eschewed the progressive initiatives, in eager pursuit of even greater wealth, supported by the wholly owned media and a bribed political class. What has been more evenly distributed globally is the ever-growing poverty, pollution and apathy against these powers.

To be fair, some improvements have been made, even at the feet of these giants, driven by government action and populist initiatives. This has been at the cost of concentration and increases in pollution and poverty in the poorest nations. The future looks bleak today, as the divide grows and progressive progress has all but halted.

You are intentionally misinterpreting the example. If someone is driving at 100km/h (as people often do on highways) and has almost no time to react, it is obviously not the driver's fault if they hit someone.

EDIT: I may have spoken too soon on the below; I checked myself, and the journalist's test card numbers in the OP do not, in fact, pass the Luhn algorithm! So perhaps some grace is deserved. But I'm preserving my comment below, if anything to be illustrative of how companies should approach this, and that if you want your product to be secure from criticism from journalists who don't know how to make test credit card numbers, you should possibly use even more robust approaches than what one random person on HN comes up with in real time.

===

But these are incredibly solvable problems! If a series of digits on screen passes the Luhn algorithm (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luhn_algorithm), or matches AAA-BB-CCCC, prevent that screen/area from being captured! And Microsoft literally owns the code for https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/secret-scanning/int... for determining other high-entropy secrets.

We're not nearly at the level of https://xkcd.com/1425/ - and even that canonical example has been entirely solved by now.

The problem isn't that these things are fundamentally impossible. And the problem isn't even that Microsoft decided speed to market was more important than safeguarding their users' data - I get speed to market!

The problem, allegedly, is that Microsoft said these things were fixed without actually fixing them [EDIT: see above], and didn't think that their users' data was important enough to assign a red team or even an empowered SDET to do even the simple tests this journalist did before making that announcement.
I think he hits on a good point, businesses that shake up the industry are under attack by the government and thus banks. Crypto and crypto jobs are the biggest threat. Any threat to business/corporate regulation is going to get hit the hardest and blocked by regulation.

So liberals that are more libertarian at heart will go anti-regulation and go right. It doesnt change their liberal views, just lower government regulations.

Be interesting to see what market shakeups will happen if regulations are lightened/removed, and the silicon valley startups that pop up.
I imagine it’s difficult emotionally to let go of the prestige conferred by a paper that got such wide recognition in the media for the mere fact that its conclusions are wrong.
> depending on your OS, an "Arduino.exe" can't even access USB devices without an additional signed driver and/or further administrative privileges

Richard Feynman, while still a student at Princeton, found an error in some well known proof, and set himself a rule to double check every theorem he would use.

I don't remember the details of the story (I read surely your joking years ago), and remember being amazed by how much time that policy must have cost him.

But now I wonder that he didn't hit dozens or hundreds of errors over the years.
> “My people” are in the same place today that they were in yesterday and will be again tomorrow.

"My people" are people who once were in that sort of temporal and geographic bubble, but are not necessarily local top me any more.

Some of the most important people in my life are spread around the globe, and we only get together in person once a year or maybe even once a decade (more of those lately, given global health stuff in the last half decade).

I bet almost everybody who's ever been to Burningman more than two or three times has the same sort of geographically distributed friend circles. Same as anybody who regularly goes to a specific conference (I have friends I originally met when I was going to The Perl Conference in the late 90's), or festival (I have a close cicrle of friend who mostly live 1000km away that I met/meet every year at a music festival).
I believe they had a funeral together. That was part of the reason for the short waiting time.

> When the future arrived, it felt… ordinary. What happened to the glamour of tomorrow?

That's the... subtitle? Thesis statement? It's the first line after the title at any rate. I stopped reading as soon as the first paragraphs felt the need to define glamour. Anyone with a modicum of life experience should already intuit one obvious answer: glamour can only exist in brief moments in reality. "The Future" necessarily only exists in fiction, and fictional works can string together glamourous moments end-to-end indefinitely.

But in real life, you can't keep the glamour turned on. People need to defecate, that toilet eventually needs be cleaned, and the sewage treatment plant needs to keep working. People have to start as infants that scream and adults that have to hold them and hear it, then toddlers that make messes everywhere, etc. Maybe dinners could all be glamourous, if you want it bad enough, but are you going to get up, do your makeup and put on your most stylish breakfast clothes everyday? Can you get away with the same outfit at lunch and still be glamorous?

"Life" cannot be glamorous unless you are fabulously wealthy AND make very specific life choices.
While I can appreciate where you're trying to come from, I wouldn't be so quick to make such an all-encompassing statement. Jesus said, "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full." There's a duality here (the now/then tension) in that Jesus brings the fullness of life both here and in the next life.

This doesn't preclude suffering, though, which I agree is a central tenant of Christianity. I would argue the primary role of suffering, from the Christian view, is to bring about conformity to Christ in this life.
You think that's hard, try getting out of vi when you're on a keyboard from an unfamiliar country.

> Do people still think, "Oh, well - 80% of the world can't be wrong"?

Yes and “if they’re so big they must be doing something right”

And “if they did something wrong the govt would come down on them”

And “they already have all my data anyway so who cares?”

I’ve heard all of those and more.
After the video was published, it was revealed that some of the recorded "theft" reactions were actually staged. According to Rober, he had asked friends to test the device and record reactions, but some of them had recruited other people to pretend to be thieves without his knowledge.

When this came to light, Rober apologized for not properly vetting all the footage and explained that 2 reaction shots had been staged without his knowledge. His later glitter bomb videos included more rigorous documentation and transparency.
Expanding on that, what would happen if we had immediate access to the knowledge required to perform any job?

I like this prediction by Alvin Toffler:

> People of post-industrial society change their profession and their workplace often. People have to change professions because professions quickly become outdated. People of post-industrial society thus have many careers in a lifetime. The knowledge of an engineer becomes outdated in ten years. People look more and more for temporary jobs.

Instead of "losing" jobs by AI (ok, some tasks of those will be replaced), there will be re-mixed jobs: dev-designers? medic-programmers? more and more specialized branches of every permutation.
It's so sad how religions are based on ending suffering but come up with so many reasons that prevent them from actually doing so.

This "foundational belief" is nonsensical. How about the belief in self-determination and responsibility for one's own actions?

i wrote something similar a real long time ago, but it was a pig, super slow. So i upgraded to winpro or whatever and had copilot figure out what was slowing it down, and it was a simple fix, and i fleshed out the UI a bit.

my code: https://github.com/genewitch/opensource/blob/master/elementa... it uses pygame you can do python -m venv cellular; scripts\activate.[bat|ps1|sh]; pip install pygame; python elementalautomata.py

the rules are the same numbers as OP used, so given the same seeds the monochrome output should be identical (this is a deterministic automaton) I forget which rules were my favorite, but i constantly test 110 and 73 (73 is psuedorandom but doesn't look like it is, it looks like it repeats.) - my code checks for loops, but it defaults to 1 screen-fulls of checking, you can press H to increase this by 1 screen-full per press. this will slow my code down to a crawl, but you can find loops in the longer period automata.

i was going to do a version similar in godot but i got distracted by ipv6 routing.

edit:

the part you'd need to adapt to add color in my code is just this one part, i think:

for pixel in range(1, w):

if lineOut[pixel] == 1:

world.set_at((pixel, h-1), (0, 0, 0))

else:
world.set_at((pixel, h-1), (255, 255, 255))
What does checking the tyre pressure have to do with changing a wheel? Most people do know how to check their tyre pressure, but have never had to change a wheel. My car doesn't even have a spare tyre. If my tyre catastrophically fails in a way the emergency puncture repair kit can't fix, I'm just calling the recovery service. It might set me back a few hours, but I haven't even had a puncture in 15 years of driving so I'll take the hit.

Moreover, what does it matter if someone knows how to check their tyre pressure, provided they know that it needs to be checked to keep the car safe, and where to take it to get it checked? Most garages here will do those sort of basic checks for free.

For me it was looking like Kirk did knew he knows he doesn’t know stuff so he was meathead with ability to defer and not control what he doesn’t know.

Picard was more like he knows everything and had to maintain this aura. But was on a different level of sophistication that I value much.

Even though I love Kirk’s gun blazing.
