Maybe they not know how to delete a post, cause its not in their documentation?
Or they simply do not care.
Off-content-comment: I think this is the first time I’ve seen cloudflare “are you a bot” protection on a corporate blog post before.

I think somehow related to AI companies viewing the web as valuable data to be stolen if you don’t have it and protected property if you do have it.
The public policy for individual pain management and the public policy for highly contagious diseases can be different, for logical reasons that I hope are obvious.
Gas mileage, safety, noise, cost, on top of the fact they already have tons of long range single prop drones kitted out with surveillance gear. Almost all of the videos look like predator style drones flying search grids. Maybe they have some large quadcopter drones in the air but I haven’t seen a single photo or video of anything that looks like one.
Suggest users to add an email on meet.hn so that you/host can send email for meetups? They can add an anon throw away email if they want. You may want to verify the hn profile though (hn doesn't have oauth so may be some string in hn profile - okay, it became complicated now).

I mean a way to allow direct communication on city/country level. But if you do Telegram then you are part of a big noise - because every body, their dogs, and their dog's granny have a telegram channel now - many of them too active.

Or - let city/country host/admins make post on city/country portal on meet.hn make announcements, posts to which users can subscribe to if they want (you bypass all the implementation in this manner)
Or they could just write a blog post and give interviews explaining their objections. Which this guy did. Why do you think there is some extra secret information he was withholding?

You can, with several caveats, detect which hop(s) on the path perform NAT by using some trickery [1]:

> NAT devices are detected by observing a difference in the expected and actual checksum of the UDP packet that is returned as the part of the Original Datagram in the ICMP Time Exceeded message. If they differ then it indicates that a NAT device has modified the packet. This happens because the NAT device must recalculate the UDP checksum after modifying the packet (i.e. translating the source port) and so the checksum in the UDP packet that is nested in the ICMP error may not, depending on the device, match the original checksum.

That is the current position, weirdly enough.
Opioids were known to be harmful. Purdue attacked the gatekeepers and policy makers not the science. It was mostly a story of what happens when a well funded con artist enters an environment built on trust.

Suddenly pain management was viewed as very important by the medical establishment, while mostly paying lip service to all the long term consequences of said actions. After all you can’t actually know how much someone is actually suffering…
The US writes most of the software that powers those devices. It also designs the hardware. It also runs the data centers and backend infrastructure and software required to make those phones useful, like GPS satellites and AWS/Azure. It produces most of the content that people watch on their TVs and much of what they play on their video game systems. The U.S. is a leader in robotics, robotic surgery equipment, self driving, electric cars, space technology, agricultural technology, etc.

Chrysler is owned by a French/Dutch company named Stellantis (it was owned by the German Daimler previously). That brand also controls Dodge, Jeep, Ram, etc. so while Chrysler cars and the Chrysler brand have been on a decades long decline, it's hardly an indication of an American exit from car manufacturing. The US is a leader in electic cars, trucks, SUVs, heavy equipment, etc. And even many foreign brands own factories in the U.S. that produce cars here.
Connect with HN companies located in the respective cities to host regular "What are you working on?" events where folks would have time for show & tell, then socialize.
The mention of Maple brings back vivid memories of freshmen year of college when the math department decided to use the software as part of instruction and no one understood how to use it. There was a near revolt by the students.
It would be funny if it was just a lack of normalize(image) before passing it through the correlator.
there are already cheaper ways to ride from point A to point B without owning a car (especially in urban areas) and yet car ownership has never been higher… ideal robotaxis will take at least one full generation to actually materialize.

just as a silly personal example, I took a car to the shop and got Uber credits. my wife was heading into the city for an event (had to deal with both traffic and parking) and I was like “take a free Uber” and she was like “no way, driving my own car…” my daughter on the other hand…
Might want to check back in a month or two.
Yes but the new parts meet the specs of the original design. The design itself isn't flexible. You can't make the engines significantly bigger without significantly revising the blueprint as a whole. That was the Boeing Max lesson. Just changing the software was not enough.
Nvidia is also American, so is AMD.
Hasn't in the FEP program. Mostly because there's no incentive: doing so helps your competitors as much as you. And it's more profitable to invest those dollars in hitting KPIs.
The highest authorities have indicated that the drones are not U.S. military [1].

I guess they could be playing semantic games. Could be defense contractor owned and operated as opposed to directly military controlled.

In any case, if they know what they are they are lying. Either directly or by omission. Not that either would be unusual.

EDIT: Actually there were statements that didn't leave room for semantic games:

“The Bureau is actively investigating the situation you mentioned, the unexplained sighting of drone activity over that part of New Jersey, including in proximity to sensitive sites and areas of concern. We do not attribute that to an individual or a group yet."

The Role of Surprise in Delightful Products
Hang on. Off by one issues are the argument frequently given in favour of zero-based indices, not the other way around. For example, let's iterate through items placing them in 3 different groups;

JS:

for (let i = 0; i < items.length; i++) {
groups[i % 3].push(items[i]);
}

Lua:

for i = 1, #items do
table.insert(groups[((i - 1) % 3) + 1], items[i])
end

Don't get me wrong. I like Lua, I've made my own IDE for it, https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/14698-luanalysis, but this is definitely not an argument in favour of 1-based indices.

I made a Browser game that's a mix between poker and the card game war
I’ve been a huge fan of the Korean game show the Genius for years. I still watch YouTube videos of season 3 and 4 pretty much everyday.

I would get so hyped whenever Dong min or Jin Ho would pull rabbits out of their hat; like open pass (obv), Gyul Hap, 12 Janggi the revenge match, and Horror race (where Dong Min could differentiate the characters based on 100mg of weight difference!!).

I wanted to share this excitement with my friends But I live in Canada and they don’t watch Korean shows. I tried to get them to watch Devils plan but they said the games were too complicated..

So I thought what is a game that I could introduce them to that is simple enough but still have those gut wrenching tense moments?

That’s when I recreated Black and white 2 as a browser game called: 99 Gambits.

The game is simple:

Out of 9 rounds, the first player to win 5 rounds wins the match.

You win a round by outbidding your opponent.

Sounds simple enough right?

But here are the twists.

First, you never know how much the other side bets.

Instead, after every bet, a flag pops up.

If a white flag is shown, that means that the player bet between 0 and 9.

If a black flag is shown, that means that the player bet between 10 and 99.

Second, there is a 5 stage lamp that shows the number of points left.

For every 20 points spent, the light from each stage disappears.

Using flags and lamps, you need to deduce how much you need to bet to beat your opponent.

It's been 4 days since I launched this and I'm pumped to say that it got over 250 players + closing in on 400 matches played.

Feel free to try it out and any feedback is appreciated!

I've known many CEO who will stare you right in the eye and say they hear your concerns then immediately disregard you and continue with business as usual. Being a psychopath is part of the job description.
What does that mean exactly?

Will they share information about individuals in a company? It’s insane to share state intelligence with corporations because corporate security could be any random person without any accountability or oversight. Corporations don’t have elected officials anywhere in their organizational structure, at least not from a public office perspective. Giving more information to people who may abuse it will just be anti-democratic.

But what justifies this action in the first place? Did state intelligence even know that Mangione would do this?

I think sharing information with people who cannot be held accountable by elected officials would just create more ways to stalk, harass or bully people. Is Gov. Hochul completely unaware of how society works?
> shown that corrupt intelligence agencies were directly influencing Twitter's censorship

That is a hyperbolic way of saying the fbi used the report feature everyone has access to when worried about domestic terrorism along the lines of the Oklahoma City bombing. Not exactly government censorship - not a potato potahto thing.
He was long before me. His case is odd because he was way too “openly autistic” for the time and probably wouldn’t have been able to win support at the level to be a real threat, which is probably why they didn’t bother to finish the job.

He put a novel on RoyalRoad that is, in my opinion, better than 98% of what comes out of publishing houses today, though it has a few errors due to the lack of a professional editor, and I haven’t finished it yet so I can’t comment on its entirety. It’s too long (450k words) and maybe too weird for traditional publishing right now, but it’s a solid story: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/85592/farisas-crossing

Some countries consider the 1st floor to be the ground floor, others consider the 1st floor to be the floor above the ground floor, which the formerly mentioned countries consider the 2nd floor… I think 0/1-based indexing is more subjective than simply being a “relic of C” or a “horrible kludge” :P
I was going to suggest to use the same approach as the old CD tagging systems. Count the number of words in each chapter to create a "book fingerprint".

It's highly likely to be globally unique, and it can also help with the missing forewords/afterwords/bonus content sections.

In addition, you can also add fuzzy matching for the title.
Look at how long the public errata lists are, and use that as a lower bound.

Category theory is just another way of looking at math besides the impoverished notion "everything is a set". Mathematics is used in computer science. Rust is a great example. Jean-Yves Girard invented linear logic to make Gerhard Gentzen's sequent calculus symmetric, similar to Paul Dirac's theory that led to the discovery of positrons. Girard's concern about using a proposition exactly once in a proof led to borrow checking.

Putting on category theory glasses can help discover and clarify new facts. Thinking in terms of objects and arrows leads to duality: reverse the direction of the arrows.

The category Set is only one of many categories. The objects are sets and the arrows are functions. A function I -> S that is 1-1/injective/mono[1] corresponds to the set theory notion of a "subset". The dual is a function S -> I that is onto/surjective/epi[2]. What set theory notion does this correspond to?

Hint: Look into David Ellerman. He is the von Neumann of our times.

[1] f is mono if fg = fh implies g = h.
[2] f is epi if gf = hf implies g = h.

> European press agencies

It's very naive to believe in 'European press'. To get the idea check Ukrainian war coverage. What you'll see first is how single sided it is. This cannot be a coincidence. It can be only a result of total control. I respected 'The Guardians' before, but after eyes opening it appears to be the most brainwashing and manipulative there. Very professionally done, must admit. The problem isn't just that war, it's likely everything and I have no easy way to check for example what really happened in Afghan war. Did US really won like Biden said?

Below system level you can harmonize (merge) branches of the same system (repository). At system level you would harmonize repositories - might involve politics I guess

Does that make sense ?

At the time, was it possible for people working at OpenAI to, er, "cash out"?

I don't actually know the answer to that, but I'm suggesting that perhaps people had additional motives for the organization to preserve its current hype/investment growth strategies.

> In this profile, we can see that approximately 50% of the time is spent on WaitForSingleObject, but we know that is a part of the game’s normal rendering loop so we can dismiss it as background noise.

That’s embarrassing and should be noted when he’s treated as a guru (as in today when I guess he gave a talk at Neurips conference) Of course, he should be listened to and treated as a true expert. But, it’s becoming more clear in viewing public people that extreme success can warp people’s perspective.
The textbook approach is:

1. Find product market fit

2. Get dominant market share

3. Work on the next cycle - the core business will go stale

4. Everything else in support - legal, finance, HR

Look for the Step 3. People think of experimental teams as the ones that build Gmail or Android, but they're more the ones building Gemini. It also happens quite early on, maybe as early as Series B companies.

You might want to avoid 'toy' teams. Gmail was probably the most successful toy project, but they're very rare.

One example is a product that has lots of TPV/GMV - payment gateways, marketplaces, listing sites. This usually doesn't translate to revenue/profit, but they're in a good position to sell things that are profitable.

Another is fixing problems in scale. Like FB was built on PHP which wasn't enough, so they ended up building Hack, React, a bunch of mobile stuff.

Some of the work is to build features requested by the core. An elliptical example here might be if you were Rolls-Royce and needed a specialized exhaust system, the specialist team would build it and then try to mass produce or sell that exhaust part to other companies.

There's going to be a lot of failed products and that's okay. The fail rate is usually higher than the core product, but lower than startups, so it's ideal for former startup folks.
> address space extension in a way that doesn't break backwards compatibility.

i didn't say it wouldn't break backward compatibility - you're moving the goal posts. what i said was "a superset of IP with a different packet format and wider fields"

> arm-chair protocol engineers

don't be condescending. i've likely been designing protocols for longer than you think.

> Remember, you need to be specific how you would add the change and how it would keep backwards compatibility.

if all you had to do to deal with IPv6 was bigger addresses and a slightly different wire format, it wouldn't have had the barrier to adoption. don't design an entirely different protocol. the wire format is the least of the problems.

McKinsey is responsible for a lot of crimes, seemingly. Ultimately they just don't seem like a trustworthy company and I think they've avoided accountability by maintaining political connections (and donations). Another example of their untrustworthy practices - I recall accusations from a few years ago where they assured the US government that they were not doing work for the CCP, but then it turned out that they were (https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/national-security/mckinsey-...). And then earlier this year at a US Senate hearing, it turned out McKinsey has once again been doing dirty work for the CCP by advising a large number of state owned corporations, who are involved in activities like building China's militarized artificial islands: https://youtu.be/tQ5kWfotE8Y

There’s a ton of other questions, such as about visual studio (on windows, where else), loved stacks (.Net leads a category…likely most of that is dev on windows). Look at C#, Azure, ASP.NET, ASP.NET Core, Teams over slack and all in that category, and on and on.

And calling teams low in the desired section is such an odd assessment. It’s 3rd out about 2 dozen, and you ignore other highly desired items like .Net being #1 in its category, visual studio 4th of about 2 dozen, and others.

So yes, the data backs up that a lot of devs are on windows and that a lot want to use tech that windows devs use. That you so misrepresent one category and ignore others is not a very good way to understand the evidence, which far outweighs any one persons opinion in this thread.
