Short version: They killed it because of "Loper Bright" which killed the Chevron Deference.

In other words: Until recently, US executive agencies were given a lot of leeway in creating regulations that align with their mandate from Congress. This leeway was struck down by the Roberts Supreme Court, insisting that courts can reign in executive agencies and keep them from operating with a broad mandate.

This court doesn't say Net Neutrality is bad or unconstitutional. It says that, under the new precedent set by the Roberts Supreme Court, the FCC does not have the authority it claims to have in regulating ISPs in the same way as a phone company.

If Congress were to pass a law that said the FCC had the authority, or that net neutrality should be instated explicitly, it would happen.
For the purposes of this challenge, no.

Hey, by the way, would you trust some Chinese or Russian root certificate?

The question is irrelevant, frankly. Consider this: you’re living in Germany today. You trust the German government. They handle all your logins using that eID. What if in February AfD comes to power? Do you still trust the German government? Governments are formed by people. Different people have different interests.
Thanks to Loper Bright, we finally have certainty as to what the Telecommunications Act of 1996 actually means.

By way of background, the Obama administration first classified broadband providers as telecommunications services subject to common-carrier regulation under Title II in 2015. The FCC reversed itself under Trump, and then during the Biden administration changed its mind yet again. The law never changed.

Each time, the courts deferred to the agency's interpretation as "reasonable", despite the fact that the interpretations were completely inconsistent. There is a single right answer: either the law classifies broadband carriers as offering telecommunications services or information services.

Today, for the first time, a court has actually read the law[0] and concluded that broadband carriers offer information services, not telecommunications services. If that's not the policy result Congress wanted, then Congress can change the law instead of letting the President change his mind every 4 years.

> A visitor to the Louvre in Paris viewed the renowned Mona Lisa and stated loudly: "That painting is nothing special. I am unimpressed." A curator who was standing nearby said: "Sir, the painting is not on trial. You are."

I wonder, is the quote trying to say something about pretentious audiences, or about pretentious curators?

The Mona Lisa is famous in no small part because it was stolen. Its fame gave it appeal, as did its out-of-copyright status that allowed so many derivatives. Now, I'm not saying "it's terrible", just "it's overrated" and "standards have risen".

People speak of Lisa del Giocondo's "enigmatic expression": I see simply a neutral, resting face, there is no enigma for me.

The composition? No, the background has some of the flaws used today to identify AI generated images: Look at the waterline on the right, just below her eye-line, that's at an angle, and contradicts the elements on the other side of her head.

This isn't to diss Leonardo, he and his peers had to invent a lot from first principles, and that's much more difficult than learning the same techniques from others; but at the same time, the fact that we don't need to invent it all from scratch and we can learn from others, means that it's much easier to get to a higher quality standard today — and the corollary, if you want to be seen as a genius on the level of Leonardo, the bar is much higher than "do what Leonardo did with the Mona Lisa".

I prefer the version in Prado, Madrid: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Gioconda_(copia_del_...

(Now one I will say "it's terrible", to the horror of those that love it, is Der Kuss by Klimt: the woman's head is at such an angle it seems to have been disconnected from her body, rotated 90°, and reattached at the ear).

I’m a design-minded software engineer with 13 years of experience as a fullstack web developer. My specialty is frontends with novel UX, heavy interactivity, real-time updates, and high performance. I enjoy prototyping, architecting high quality maintainable systems, creating custom dev tools, and technical writing. I like the workhorse role and I’m open to being a lead.

I have a lot of experience with open source, and I recently dipped a toe into technical video creation and blogging. I’ve also been integrating AI more in my workflows - in 2024, I experienced LLMs reaching the threshold needed to increase my coding productivity without losing quality for many kinds of problems.

I'm not actively searching for work, so for example I’m not looking for non-Svelte frontend roles, but I would jump at the right opportunity. Please reach out if you think I could be a good fit!
And Ellsberg very, very loudly and publicly proclaims that Snowden did exactly the right thing by leaving the country... that (unlike Ellsberg) Snowden would have been muzzled, thrown into a deep hole until his trial date, and not have received a fair trial.

1) It's not the 1970s anymore. Things have changed.

2) Ellsberg walked out on bail and was able to speak publicly about why he did what he did. Snowden would be denied bail and visitors because of "national security" concerns.

2) In a novel application of law, Ellsberg was not permitted to raise a "my disclosure was justified because of very significant interest" defense. [0]

3) Ellsberg only walked free because Nixon's agents were caught breaking into Ellsberg's psychologist's office to search for more character-assassination material, and the judge found this conduct to be unconscionable. Had Nixon NOT done this, #2 above would have ensured Ellsberg had no choice but to go to jail.

4) Given the existence of the NSA wiretap program that Snowden revealed, FedGov would not have the opportunity to make the same blunder Nixon did... because they have an extensive secret database (that "happens" to contain information about US citizens) that they can make secret searches against to find all sorts of blackmail material.

[0] This right here is the REALLY BIG thing. It's my understanding that Ellsberg was expecting to be able to at least argue that his actions were justified by very significant public interest. While having that right stripped away is pretty normal in this day and age, it absolutely was not back then.

I have contributed to the growth and success of several startups (two of them got acquired) by turning their MVP into a full featured product. Mostly dev work, but have worn many hats over the past years (e.g. product ideation, hiring, budgeting, management).

Mostly experienced in JS/TS (Vue especially) and Laravel, but worked with a few other languages and I tend to pick up things fast. I have worked 100% remote for close to a decade now, am easy to work with and browsing around for a new challenge, which could either be a technical or leadership role.
The amount of SEO spam on these searches indicates to me that this is a commercially profitable query and a task a lot of people are interested in.

If a multi-modal LLM can read a 100 page PDF and answer questions about it or replace a median white collar worker, this should be a relatively trivial task. Suggest some nice fonts, backgrounds and give me something that I can lightly edit and generate a PDF from.

true; but at the same time, any sufficiently complex type is begging to be type-aliased into something more legible/sensible in the first place ... and this is also true for "right-typed" systems.

I've been sensing this too: people seem to forget about the principal and beneficial internal effect on the mind that results from mental exertion. I raised a similar point in another HN post today and someone downvoted me because they interpreted my statement as being too anti-LLM!

We're reliving Socrates's lament about writing.
Sure. Note though that there's a long tradition of systems for embedding SQL in conventional programming languages such as

http://infolab.stanford.edu/~junyang/cs145/or-proc.html

which for whatever reasons never caught on in the open source world. (I'd blame limitations of current compiler technologies and the values of people who make compilers... If we had composable parsers you could just say "here's a spot for a SQL query in a Java method" in 10 lines of code) JooQ approaches that without requiring any change in the compiler. In the past it was awkward to embed SQL in Java because there were no multi-line strings. In Python you could write

do_query("
... a really crazy complicated queries with lots of joins and subqueries
that is carefully indented to fit in with the rest of the program ...
",{"arg1": val1, "arg2": val2})

but without real map literals, multi-line strings and such this was terribly awkward. (If you think List.of(), Map.of() and such are cool I was writing a computer chess program last month that used List.of(A,B) to create a list that was used in an inner loop and it was terrifying how slow it was compared to using an ArrayList)
I don't think it's a useless metric and it's one I use myself, but it can also be gamed pretty easily. So the more people making decisions based on downloads, the higher the likelihood of bots generating downloads just to juice the stats.
The premise of most adventure / RPG games is that you're the only person capable of saving the day. And most novels/tv shows follow the stories of a person as they achieve some greatness (often coming from being a nobody). It's not like Mario is playing furry dress up while some HVAC guy named Tony defeats Bowser.

There's something fundamental about being seen as an important person. Not only does our literature revolve around this concept, but ideas about luxury and status are derived from this idea. Men wear the clothes that they see other important men wearing. It's why marketers get sports stars to sell products to men.

This product taps into that need. So it's easy to understand why so many people would enjoy it (and why some, like yourself, would hate it - some people want to be NPCs).
Can you point me to some documentation or proof of concept for this? Would definitely like to change my workflow if this is the case.
I'm a relatively new drummer (<2 yrs as a hobby), but I'm not impressed with Zildjian so far. The cymbals have never sounded good to me - sounds "dirty" - and they feel fragile like they'd break easily. Guitar Center highly recommended their drumsticks, but after using them, I found they break easily and don't feel "right" (not sure how to pinpoint the exact issue) compared to Vic Firth sticks I have (which are excellent).

I'm not sure if this is an atypical experience with the brand or not.
I find it interesting how LLM errors can be so subtle. The next-token prediction method rewards superficial plausibility, so mistakes can be hard to catch.
I'll repeat a paragraph from I wrote four hours before you posted this question:

> Character assassination is a tool that FedGov does not hesitate to use against people who cause it big trouble. And yes, putting "spin" on facts absolutely is character assassination. Snowden was a poor student. MLK cheated on his wife. So what? These facts have nothing to do with the ills and rot that these folks were exposing and leading us away from.

40 miles is about 10kWh, yes, which would be 11.5kWh at the meter. I pay 7cents/kWh, so you're paying about 10X per mile as I am for fuel. I've driven old BMW's, and I had to budget about $3k/year for maintenance & repairs, I imagine your Merc is similar. So you're spending $400/month for your "cheap" car.

A 3 year old Tesla for 20K would likely save you a considerable amount of money.

Great to see this here. We used this dataset from Tiny Stories to train small models (as small as 20M params) and test out knowledge addition. Published a paper based on this dataset. We could get coherent outputs at sizes as low as 20M-25M. (though not as great as LLMs, but still decent enough).

Maybe I'm remembering wrong, but when Chevron deference was overturned, didn't the court explicitly state that it only applies to future orders?

i.e., prior orders relying on Chevron would be grandfathered.

But here the rule was created April 2024, prior to Chevron decision in June 2024.
The fun tradeoff here is since the courts determined the feds can't regulate it, the states are allowed to instead, with California and New York already taking the lead, and are much more consumer oriented than anything that could be done federally.
Some people care about executable size, (mostly) everyone else ships Electron apps.
I'll accept any open format that can be lightly edited and converted into PDF.

Google doc + PDF is likely the most commonly used combination based on what I see in the SEO spam.

Some of them make you watch ads and then allow you to download something that looks like a doc, but you'll find out soon that you downloaded a ppt with an image that you can't edit.
Your behavior in this thread is spammy and your perspective boils down to "everyone in the industry ratfucks creators, so the video is ragebait". Why do you feel compelled to defend clearly unethical behavior?

UUIDv7 interoperates with all the other versions of UUID. The v7 support in Postgres doesn't add a new column type, it makes the existing column type more powerful/capable. Applications that had been using UUIDv4 everywhere can get cheap Snowflake-like benefits in existing code just from switching the generator function. Most languages have a GUID or UUID class/struct that is compatibly upgradable from v4 to v7, too.

Musk has an affinity for figures like this, and he even had some interactions with this particular individual, who is less well-known.

https://www.politico.eu/article/belgium-far-right-prodigy-dr...

Musk tried to frame the situation as if the person was sentenced for sharing memes, but the reality involved more serious charges, including weapons-related offenses.

The same applies to the AFD. In 2022, a group called "Patriotische Union" plotted a coup to overthrow the German government, and several AFD figures were involved in the plan. To now seem him fanboying over AFD is nuts.

Apparently it's not just the mix of metals, but the process.

At college I was acquainted with one of the family and I asked him just that question. He said it is actually very difficult and some MIT people had gotten closer than others to figuring it out (but not very close), and gave up after the mixes/processes kept exploding on them.
Er... yes it does? If you're not an EU citizen then you need a visa to work in an EU country.

Didn't find many details, so please excuse the questions.

So the user would get a number of signed tokens from the gov to prove age, then a token could be shared with a site that verifies age without connecting to gov, assuming it's already aware of the gov's public key?

What prevents the same token from being used by more than one person?

How can the site prove compliance with the law? Will they need to store the tokens for each user? Can the gov tie a stored token back to a particular person that that verified?

The Supreme Court said in Loper Bright that previous cases decided under Chevron are still good law. But this lawsuit challenged a brand new FCC order that had not been previously litigated.
Governments as threats... that's way beyond what people who want DRM consider within their threat models. TFA was about TPM not being relevant to DRM.

For most public cloud users having to trust the cloud operator is just a fact of life. Even if the SE were strong up to but excluding collaboration of the CPU vendor and the cloud operator, the user would have to run most if not all of their code in the SE, which is one thing the SEs invariably can't do.
His idea of censorship is when social media takes steps in the public interest and their civic responsibility of providing a social good seriously.

Meta is trying to avoid another Myanmar catastrophe and he wants to use the power of the state to ensure no responsible actions for the public good will be taken.

It's ideologically consistent. Anything acting for the betterment of society is somehow communism
Linking this to any former current or upcoming administration is just silly political bias and grandstanding. By your own admission it was already wholly ineffective.

You appear to have created a straw man. Your prompt assumes I am a climate change denier, when it might have been better to have labelled me a man-made climate change skeptic. Not sure chatGPT is the way to go on this one as I'd imagine it will be weighted towards the consensus. There was once a consensus that the Earth was the centre of the Universe. Anyway thanks for the link, I enjoyed it.

This might work but biases against languages whose package managers are not used in the rank. As well as code that is used alot but not referenced via code directly e.g. drop in dlls.
