You're right. I don't live in Canada anymore, but even my moderate and liberal friends in Canada regularly complain about immigrants. That sentiment feels very new to me, though. I think Canada did have a positive view of immigrants for a long time.
Little bit more about the language: https://github.com/nikeedev/rain-lang/blob/main/language_syn.... I like that syntax.
Great question! I think it will alter those a fair bit. As well timescapes seems to imply that the visible universe is not a sphere but a lumpy sphere. I think too that we can probably interpret variations of the CMB as variations in the amount of great void space in any one direction. There are lots of implications.
In Finland as well, although it's not really sovereign like national or municipal parliaments. The constitution does grant Sami and Roma people sovereign rights on their languages and culture.
Wow, this is awesome! Thanks for building. I didn't realize there was a protocol for streaming while rendering, though I noticed sumo.ai doing something similar for audio. Gemini with grounding is new to me also, very nice!

Looks like it is changing, with geographical location being a factor too.

> For the first time in a quarter century, a clear majority [58%] of Canadians say there is too much immigration, with this view strengthening considerably for the second consecutive year. This trend is evident across the population but is most significant in the Prairie provinces, while least so in Quebec.

I think there is a real difference between immigration to Canada and immigration to Europe.

Canada's immigration policy is on the whole highly selective, focused on skilled immigrants. The largest category of immigrants is professionals. Immigration laws are enforced and illegal immigration is relatively low. Refugees are admitted, but the government retains control over the numbers, the source countries, which individuals get chosen, etc.

In 2015–2016, Germany admitted close to one million Syrian refugees. Over the same period, Canada took 44,000 of them. There is a never-ending stream of unauthorised arrivals (some genuine refugees, many economic migrants–it can be difficult to distinguish them) crossing the Mediterranean.

The biggest complaint about immigration in Canada is that it is contributing to an overheated property market, locking many younger Canadians out of owning their own home.

But the majority of immigrants to Canada are well-off, educated – so unlikely to get involved in social problems like crime or terrorism, and they tend to integrate well with mainstream society. There are some poorer and disadvantaged immigrant groups who are more likely to experience those problems, but their numbers are smaller. Compare to Europe where the number of poor / poorly educated / socially deprived immigrants is much larger.

So while both Canada and Europe may have some problems with immigration, they are rather different problems.
Inheritance goes to young people in the same family. I doubt that is holding back the young people who get it.

Immigration keeps salaries low which is great for companies bad for young people.

Immigrants of a similar age want the same type of housing. Young people starting out cannot afford their parents home. They compete for the same resources. Older generations are least affected.
> And most of it misplaced.

I've seen that tactic to try to discredit real, valid concerns with immigration, either by lumping it with racism (which definitely exists, but is not the only argument against unfettered immigration), or by pretending something else is the problem (something else may also be a problem, but that doesn't make the problems that people are worried about with high levels of immigration invalid).

In my understanding, the backlash against immigration in Canada is relatively recent, and it's basically caused by the fact that Canada took in a huge number of immigrants, historically speaking, in recent years. This results in:

1. People feeling likes many immigrant communities are creating enclaves instead of adopting the culture of Canada.
2. Many recent immigrants are unskilled, resulting in a larger burden on provincial-based social services.

When you couple that with astronomical housing prices and a stagnant economy with rising unemployment where many people see less opportunity, it's not hard to see why citizens are demanding lower rates of immigration.

For me at least, I took around 2 years of swing dance lessons (1~2 a month). It was HARD, at least for me. It didn't take that long to get through the basics but I never got confident at it and always felt unwelcome at dance events where everyone only wants to dance with already skilled dancers. The only exception was beginner parts of dance events where the participants have no experience.

I also found east coast swing to be very counter intuitive. 6 count on 4 count songs. Ugh! I picked it up but still....

Maybe it's unrealistic expectations from movies or something but basically, before taking the classes I thought social dancing would come kind of naturally with just a little instruction. Instead it turned out, again, at least for me, that it's a highly skilled activity and only others who've spent months training can participate.

To put it another way, I thought a random skilled lead dancer could pick a random partner and guide them through some moves. I felt like I've seen that from salsa leads. But, charleston and 6 count east coast swing are not intuitive and require practice beforehand, AFAICT.
Justin Trudeau, maybe the "e" was an accident. He's about to receive a no-confidence vote from the opposition parties in parliament, which will force an election.

"The night before the clashes, Right Sector called on all of its members to ready themselves for a "peace offensive" on 18 February. <...> That morning, around 20,000 demonstrators marched on the parliament building as that body was set to consider opposition demands for a new constitution and government. Around 09:45, the demonstrators broke through the police barricade of several personnel-transport trucks near the building of the Central Officers' Club of Ukraine and pushed the cordon of police aside. The clashes started after some two dozen demonstrators moved a police vehicle blocking their path to parliament." [2]

It is absolutely, unequivocally factually correct. Canada is under population-trap growth levels, growing by over 3.2% in a single year. That is absolutely bonkers growth. Canada had more growth in absolute numbers than the US, a country almost 10x the population (and thus ability to absorb).

Canada's housing is completely disconnected from reality and has a wide range of reasons, but right now we have a housing crisis, not just a price crisis, because of unchecked, outrageous migration through a thousand different programs and venues. Hospitals are clogged. A substantial percentage of housing transactions over the past couple of years -- fuelling the massive spiral upwards -- was predicated on hosting a number of international students in the basement.

Highways are clogging. Everything is at crisis levels. Canada has 5 million visa holders in country who are expected to leave over this calendar year. The vast majority have no plans on leaving.

There are legitimate problems with the housing market, but the moment someone makes the outrageous claim that migration is just "rhetoric", they're either grotesquely misinformed, or they're outright lying.

> An unexpected side effect was the end of the big band era

An unexpected side effect was to contribute to the shift away from big bands dominating the musical scene, during/after a world war and changing tastes in music and music-making. In other words, the strike hastened a trend.

And keep in mind that the troops themselves had access to the newest jazz recordings, as mentioned earlier in the same article you're citing:

"As the strike progressed, limited recordings (called Victory Discs, or V-Discs) could be made solely for servicemen, as long as they weren’t distributed commercially."

IIRC, some of those V-Discs featured early bebop performers. Like bop, big band in general had already been getting faster-- often not even dance-able-- and more dissonant-- to the point of becoming avant-garde. By the end of the decade, in 1949, you already had Miles Davis' Boplicity and Israel, and those trends were never going to sustain a popular music industry, especially with the advent of television (where, according to the article you cited, Petrillo negotiated again for musicians' royalties).

In any case, Petrillo apparently had balls of steel. Everyone on HN should read that article, if only to get an idea of the work it would take to get remunerated fairly when a cluster of GPUs can be trained to do all your future work.
I totally agree with basically all that. I’m at an age where video games quickly bore me (totally respecting people who enjoy them), but I also have had some profound VR experiences that make me believe there is a moral imperative to create experiences for people to see what life is like in other peoples’ shoes, and travel to places they otherwise couldn’t, and to learn new things and concepts in ways we couldn’t before.

Your comment made me think something like, “People of VR”

> For example, Microsoft is keeping prices of Copilot temporarily free for as long as possible to destroy competitors who can't compete with the best tool available for free.

Yes, their recent "copilot is free" tactic is obviously to crush Cursor and the like.

> Until there are enough AI startups shutting down and a few of them have gone public on the stock market. The prices will start to rise by $0.50 - $1.50 per million tokens very slowly.

At the same time, advances in GPU and inference optimizations will likely push back against price increase. That said, you're right about lock in—if that happens, then even technological progress in GPUs and inference wouldn't stop companies from raising prices.
In these times, how else does one expect to advurtise that theeir text was not geeenerated by an LLM?

Jeff Koons on why he has drawn a red line on AI in art
I get what the article is saying. I enjoy Rust, as I enjoy dabbling in other more esoteric programming languages, like Zig. But one thing I miss from the days of early programming is the hacker spirit, in a way. As it master, I should be able to force my machine into giving me access of private fields. I want to be able to poke holes in stuff, to break things and at times, I want the ability to do something stupid just because I want to see what would happen. I feel the same for overly strict compilers. The number one thing I hate about Zig is the compiler treating me like a child when I have unreferenced variables.

Modern languages should enable what older languages couldn‘t. They shouldn‘t get in my way needlessly.
thanks! Streaming was actually pretty hard to get working, but it goes roughly like this as a streaming pipeline:

- The LLM is prompted to generate an explainer video as sequence of small Manim scene segments with corresponding voiceovers

- LLM streams response token-by-token as Server-Sent-Events

- Whenever a complete Manim segment is finished, send it to Modal to start rendering

- Start streaming the rendered partial video files from manim as they are generated via HLS
When I was at Yelp, we shared log files in gists. the infosec team loved this, b/c they could scan the gists for PII and token leaks easily.
I get the hesitation. 'Manifest destiny' doesn’t exactly have the best branding. But this isn’t about expansionism or flag-planting; it’s more like making sure the neighborhood’s in order before someone else moves in and rearranges the furniture. Greenland’s interest (if it ever happens) wouldn’t come from the US kicking down the door, but from their own evolving relationship with Denmark. If anything, the US would probably just be the least disruptive option on the table.

Honestly though, what do you think about China’s own 'manifest destiny' moves in Africa, Brazil, the US, Canada, and basically everywhere else?
In a sense, I can definitely see something like this being popular. We've already got things like virtual friends/assistants/romantic partners built using AI systems and bots, and this is kinda just the next level of that. I think games also sometimes go that route too, I know a few of them have you play against bots disguised as human players when starting out in multiplayer so you win easily and feel better about your chances.

So a social network like this would probably do well, depressingly enough. And it'd probably be even more unhealthy for society than existing ones are.

It'd also fall straight into the whole 'don't create the torment nexus' thing too, since I'm pretty sure quite a few works of fiction did something like this already. I mean, the villain of the latest Mario RPG literally traps people in fantasies where everyone treats them as the centre of the universe in his ploy to force isolation on people and destroy worlds. This feels a bit like that, except as a social network and a few times less lethal.
I interpreted the suggestion as the reader's own AI would rewrite the content to remove advertising messaging/bias, for example.
It just means that rather than "trust doctors" or "evaluate care" it's cheaper to hire a random doctor who evaluates and sets limits based on arbitrary reasoning about "excess" and that reasoning follows from what crimes they've gotten way with previously (lawyers).

This is not a system of care; it's a system of squeeze the turnip, with a parade of MBAs who constantly need to turn the screws to ensure they can climb the latter.

It's sociopathy, like the entire business capitalism. It's just that in this case, the consumers arn't directly the costumers.
I'd love to see free movement of people and goods between US and Canada, EU-style. That's unlikely to happen anytime soon though
Is that even a new phenomenon? The notion of a MMORPG "raid" as a highly orchestrated event was already well-established 15-20 years ago (recall the infamous "Onyxia Wipe" recording, for instance). It may have even predated World of Warcraft; older MMOs like EverQuest had similar dynamics.
You're missing the point. We have no idea what your intended difference between immigration and "immigration" is supposed to be.
It seems to me that for the most capable and useful models, openness almost exclusively benefits businesses, or maybe academic organizations with money for serious hardware. I know what I can run on my 4090 at home but the results pale in comparison to the commercial services. I see why people consider these matters important from a theoretical standpoint but from a practical standpoint it doesn’t seem particularly consequential. I self-host a few FOSS server applications that are primarily sold as SaaS subscriptions, and folks are often very critical of those businesses benefitting from the “open source” label because they’re often seemingly deliberately difficult to self-host. This seems to be an order of magnitude less open than that. Is there some use case for people with reasonable hardware that I’m just not aware of?

I mostly use shortened versions of my real name. For instance, here it's my first name and the first two letters of my last name. Other places it's my first name and the first 1 letter of my last name. I prefer a short username (jealous of rms and esr and others who "claimed" their initials successfully), so I try to use these two short variations the most. But sometimes they're both already taken or they're too short for the service I'm signing up to, so I might add a few more letters from my last name, or use the first 1 letter from my first name and my entire last name. I'm sure people could figure out who I am, with varying degrees of effort depending on how much I've shared on the site and how long I had to make my username, but at the same time I try to avoid using my name in full without any shortening, to at least make it harder for the laziest bad actors. There are a few niche places (such as boardgamegeek) where I don't mind my full name being out there, because the community is largely pretty focused on a single subject and fairly non-problematic (compared to many other places, including hn).

For the evolution of how I arrived at this: I started BBSing as a teenager in the 90s, and there pretty much everyone used handles instead of real names. So for a while I used a particular handle, until I decided I was embarrassed of the name, so I chose another. Eventually in the late 90s as email (and the internet in general) became a lot more common I was embarrassed a bit when I'd give my <handle>@juno(or wherever).com email address out to people, so I set up an email with my real name. Then I figured since I was already providing an email with my real name when signing up for places, I might as well use my real name for account names. But, like I said before, I prefer a short username, but someone was already using my first,middle,last initials that way, so I started using "joem" as many places as I could, which was easy at first, but became much harder as time went on and I had to expand to my current system noted above.

This is the best advice IMO.
Org-mode is not just 'something', it's a powerful Emacs extension that transforms plain text documents into dynamic, interactive, and organized systems for notes, to-do lists, and project management, while seamlessly integrating code execution across multiple programming languages with data flow between embedded computational blocks.

Practical example? You can be annotating a PDF, while having executable code blocks in different languages, e.g., you can run http or sql query, then pass the results into a python, javascript or shell scripting block, and then output the final result into a diagram. So, you'd be reading the book, taking notes and mess around with practical code snippets at the same time.

I have tried so many different note-taking apps, philosophies and techniques over the years. Nothing even comes close to what I can do today in Org-mode. It totally shatters everything else and kicks the shit out of the ballpark.
Excessive profanity could be a fun way to prove human authors!
Except I didn't just state it, I also explained the rationale behind it, and elaborated further on that substantially in subsequent replies to other comments. What is your specific objection?
I'm not sure I agree with simonw's approach either. The goal of a link blog, that is meant to be useful to others, is to provide a highly curated collection of potentially difficult to find resources centering around a big theme or topic all in one place. It would be very similar to an "awesome list" but with personal notes and summaries of why you think the articles, books, papers, blog posts, you have linked are relevant to the overarching theme. The optimal blog structure would probably not even be a blog post per link, but rather a blog post per topic that gets updated as you find more relevant resources.
