It depends wether you believe in determinism. If you do, then everything is just "luck". If you believe that your mind is something special that can come to conclusions truly independently (create information out of thin air) then the consequences of actions are skill or intelligence.

Or whatever. "Luck" is just a dumb concept we humans use to handwave away edge cases.
Ah yes, with transliteration that assumption goes out of the window haha

Well, actually, that's untrue. Carbonylhemoglobin formation due to metabolic and environmental CO, and subsequent breakdown releases CO. There are, in fact, CO breath analyzers. Smokers and smoke inhalation patients have much higher levels, whereas ordinary healthy people have detectable, nonzero levels. For the point of detecting crowds, it's still meaningless.
Agree. It's one of the best things I use all the time.

Personally I get immense enjoyment out of not doing anything useful, especially not on a big scale. So if I were to accidentally "make it big", I'd most likely not do it again and keep enjoying the small inconsequential things.
MMT isn't a set policies. It's a description of how money works, when you have fiat currency.

Government is a source of money. Taxation is a sink. Too much money in the system you get inflation, not enough deflation.

When you can print money taxation is just a way of controlling the amount of money in the economy almost by definition because you don't need tax to fund yourself when you can create money. Bonds just provide a stable financial instrument rather than a source of funding because you can literally just print money if you wanted to.

The constraint on money is mainly inflation, and government debt and tax is used to control the money supply.

That's it.
> It's reminiscent of Luhmann's original zettelkasten system, where physical proximity created a kind of "neighbor effect" that digital systems struggle to replicate.

That's what outliners are good for. You automatically generate context and proximity when adding/indenting outline items. And we have the thing called hypertext for cross-referencing and navigation. I think Luhmann's zettelkasten is a quite poor concept in comparison, because the cards are small and don't adjust to the size of a topic, so we have to split topics, and we have to take care of identification and referencing the cards ourselves. When translating zettelkasten to digital, then at least we can get rid of some of these limitations, but we still don't have all the advantages of outliners.

In my experience, it is purely a matter of habit whether you write down ideas or thoughts by hand on paper or enter them directly into an outline on the computer. Before I had tools like Ecco or my own CrossLine (https://github.com/rochus-keller/crossline/), I also produced a lot of notes on paper. After a few years of working with these tools, I got rid of paper completely. With CrossLine, I also solved the problem of linking to other documents or emails, so that I can link any information or put it in the necessary context. And it scales well. I have outline files with thousands of notes, minutes, concepts, specifications and the like, everything cross-referenced and full-text searchable. I can still reproduce e.g. meetings or paths to decicions taken ten or more years ago with little effort.
Outside of the IP, the server can only know data that the client collects and sends (and even the IP isn't much, because most ISPs give dynamic IPs these days, plus VPNs etc).

It’s pretty easy to only speak German within the DACH countries. Huge online communities as well that speak German.

I’d wager it’s similar for several other large languages, e.g. Spanish or Chinese, OTOH they are even larger, OTOH they probably don’t have the same advanced dubbing industry that we have.
Dexory - Lead Networking Engineer (IoT/Robotics) - London/Oxfordshire - HYBRID - http://dexory.com

We are a post-series-B team building autonomous data capturing robots and related technology to improve the efficiency and accuracy of warehouses.

Our robots operate in challenging and unusual networking environments, and we need a dedicated networking engineer to help design, maintain, and troubleshoot customer deployments. This is a lead-level role that will give you the opportunity to set the strategy for our networking implementations now and in the future.

This isn’t a “design a big corporate network” kind of networking engineer - but instead a more open-ended role that can help us move quickly with setting up network links to our deployed robots over customer WiFi and cellular networks. You’ll probably be at home if you have deep knowledge about practical implementation of technology like WireGuard, know how to use Wireshark and read a pcap file, have played with OpenWRT, and can figure out why DNS isn’t working from two thousand miles away.

In Australia:

In recent discussions at Senate estimates, it was revealed that Services Australia, the administrator of Centrelink, has been sharing smartphone-hacking technology, specifically Cellebrite’s Universal Forensic Extraction Device, with the Department of Education and other undisclosed agencies.

This move aims to assist in the investigation of suspected fraud committed against various government schemes and subsidies.

While Services Australia insists the technology is only used for serious non-compliance investigations, not general customer compliance issues, concerns have been raised about privacy, data retention, and adherence to international agreements on spyware proliferation.

From 2022:

How does Cellebrite work?

It takes just a few seconds for police to scan a mobile phone with technology such as Cellebrite. They usually download the entire contents of the phone and gain an enormous level of intelligence.

Police can scan a device during a stop and search on reasonable grounds, patrolling in a vehicle, or while questioning a suspect – often without the knowledge of the person.

Usually, they are seeking confirmation of drug dealing, child sexual abuse, murder or gang activity involving assault or robbery.

China reduced sulphur dioxide emissions by more than two-thirds in past 15 years
A huge number of people. In 2023 they made around $80 billion of profit on $300 billion of revenue. Their ad network, search engine (Google), web browser (Chrome), mobile OS (Android), videos website (YouTube) and email service (Gmail) are all either leaders in user numbers or close to being (actually I think they might be #1 in all of those categories...)
> Google's advertising product should enforce how the individual websites work

"Google's advertising product" should do no such thing, the websites can go right ahead implementing whatever they dream of. Google "the company that develops the OS for my phone and the web browser" on the other hand is responsible for what tools and features it gives to those websites or apps to use on my device and without my explicit permission.

For example Google doesn't allow them to have root on your device, or covertly activate your microphone or camera. Why aren't you asking "who's Google to police what websites can do with my device, camera, and mic"?

> is to me more in the direction of "an electricity provider should enforce how people live their lives in any home provided by such electricity…"

Quite the opposite, Google or the electricity provider should enforce nothing on you or me. The analogy is more like the electricity provider allowing anyone to access information about what you do using that electricity. Why would the electricity provider have access to that information in the first place, and why would they be allowed to create interfaces that share that info with their partners?

If you're fine with Google allowing sites to collect this information from you, would you also be fine if your electricity provider allowed sites to collect info about how you use the electricity?
I wonder what 'high performance' means in that context. So far, RISC-V has been rather underwhelming in regards to performance when compared to ARM or Loongarch (3A6000).

Court strikes down US net neutrality rules
You might benefit from a more robust understanding of filtration mechanisms and updating your mental model of airborn covid to include the medium in which it's broadcast. Folks aren't outgassing raw virii with no associated droplet material, so your particle size is off. Additionally N95 can absolutely filter particulate well below the rated 0.3 microns, it's just less effective at doing so. Summary: masks absolutely filter airborn covid when rated material is used with correct fitment.
There's a huge difference between being a renter on a VPS or on a social network platform.

Youtube can demonetize or delete a channel and the creator is more or less fucked. They can find another platform, but they need to build their audience almost from scratch.

By contrast, if my VPS provider kicks me out, I just clone it or restore from backup to any one of the thousands of competing providers, change a few DNS records and my audience (not that I have one) wouldn't even know that anything changed.

Servers and domain names are transferable and neutral, platforms and usernames aren't.
How does it compare versus Debezium?
I think this only shifts the problem, the whole idea with the internet is a distributed network of computers that talk with each other, and if the computers at the edge (end users) can't do that, then it's no longer the internet, it's something else, more akin to cable-tv where there are "providers" and "consumers". The playing field stops being level.

Apple to pay $95M to settle lawsuit accusing Siri of eavesdropping
"The alleged recordings occurred even when people didn’t seek to activate the virtual assistant with the trigger words, “Hey, Siri.” Some of the recorded conversations were then shared with advertisers in an attempt to sell their products to consumers more likely to be interested in the goods and services, the lawsuit asserted."
"Each consumer could receive up to $20 per Siri-equipped device covered by the settlement, although the payment could be reduced or increased, depending on the volume of claims. Only 3% to 5% of eligible consumers are expected to file claims, according to estimates in court documents."
They were always a protection racket against retailers, and I haven't seen any proof that they started stuffing their affiliate code in 100% of the time only recently.

The racket is that they f*k with your campaigns by stealing codes typed by users of the extension, so even users who don't think they're sharing them end up sharing them with Honey. Imagine the fun when someone creates a valuable code for someone trusted and doesn't limit its usage sufficiently, and someone uses it on a Honey-infected machine. Now the whole Internet is getting a possibly loss-making discount!

Honey then contacts the business and says "Gee, wouldn't you like us to stop doing that? Just pay us 3% on every sale any of our tens of millions of users buy and we'll let you blacklist any codes you like!"

When does the UK forum responsibility law take effect?
I agree with all that but don't forget the astroturfing cycle. Net neutrality was a big fight between the ISPs and big tech companies years ago. Now that they've mostly reached a stable armistice and it's clear from variances in state to state law and policy that have arisen in the meantime that this is not a make or break issue for either side there's no money being poured onto the fire to whip people into a frenzy.
In recent times, I found 2 troublesome issues: one was network-side and another was client-side.

1. Google/Nest WiFi mesh APs being "too close" to each other (30 ft / 10 m), causing a periodic backhaul mesh collapse. There was no user-visible indication of this, it was completely locked away and only noticed by support. I ditched Google's junk and moved to Ubiquiti.

2. On macOS, ObjectiveSee's LuLu has nondeterministic packet loss that causes SSH connection resets and a whole host of other weird problems. It's totally untrustworthy and shouldn't be used by anyone until it's proven reliable.
I know it was, but the click-baity headline makes it seem like you're becoming independent of the whims of private companies, which you are very much not if you're renting a host somewhere. You're definitely not a property owner, you might be a domain owner (renter still, I don't know of any domains which you can pay for and keep forever).
Renewable are boosted by interconnected grids, it's probably always going to be sonny or windy somewhere.

But with Brexit, UK has lost out on potentially being a large exporter of power to Europe, the same way the French do with their excess nuclear power.

I’m referring to what happened, accurately

We have an aging population that has representatives like them, they optimized for themselves and it was not necessary for the rest of us. Beforesight, in hindsight, and we are still not represented in the mental health repercussions that should be weighed, especially amongst the maladjusted adolescent and now young adult population that makes more sense to have been optimized for in a functioning society.

And what did we do with slowing down how many elderly people died? We did not expand hospital capacity in but did buy time in a coincidence that has almost no standard of review. For example, In the US if only 100,000 people died instead of 1 million (or the 10 million some were afraid of), it still would be a political disaster for whoever was in office, the same at 10,000, or even the 3,000 matching 9/11. Its good that the hospital system didnt get overwhelmed, or for long in some municipalities, by mostly coincidence.

Response could have been tailored to factor in reality quicker, which is what ultimately happened anyway: A bifurcated system where those fit interacted with the world, and those not did not. Many of them are still functionally quarantined to this day. Could have been the same by 2021, everywhere.

Some of those ancient cities disappeared a lot earlier than Spain even existed, though.

People likely abandoned them for some unknown reason and moved to other locations, where they'd eventually get wiped out by the Spanish.

> we hold that Broadband Internet Service Providers offer only an ‘information service’ under 47 U.S.C. § 153(24), and therefore, the FCC lacks the statutory authority to impose its desired net-neutrality policies through the ‘telecommunications service'’ provision of the Communications Act, id. § 153(51).

Can we just appreciate how silly and sad it is how many billions of dollars hinge on the distinction between two terms which 99% of Americans would, if they weren't aware it was a political issue, are basically synonyms?

Hi Mr. Brown, CEO of Comcast, what does your company do? Is it a telecommunications company? "No!! We only provide information services!"
How are you running evals for AI agents?
I have a couple of projects in my company where wer are creating AI agents to generate code and/or help people in designing software. The agents themselves are conversational. The code generated is most often UI code.

How are people going about evaluating the responses of AI agents these days? Particularly for conversational flows - the problem seems more complex because it could require keeping the entire conversation in context.

Any help or resources will be quite appreciated!
id Anthology might be cheating because it was a collector's set, but here it is: https://doom.fandom.com/wiki/Id_Anthology
Not much difference than the way all modern society works with technology today. Big tech firms often scan our stuff without our knowledge ([1] for example) and manipulate people with advanced algorithms to simply hand stuff over. The only difference is that we have the illusion that we are making a choice.

But now, ask yourself: if you need to work a regular job and do regular stuff (i.e. you're not super rich), how easy is it to go through life without a smartphone? Banks often require one for two-factor authentication. Many businesses communicate through Whatsapp around the world. My condominium's condo fees are only viewable through an app. Etc. If a person HATES smartphones, and NEVER wants to use one, it would be difficult, no question. So, that person is FORCED to use one.

Some people like them, but others hate them and have to use them anyway. Whether you like it or not, we are forced to carry these surveillance devices around because many components of modern infrastructure are starting to require smartphoines.

The only difference between Serbia and here is that Serbian police do it, whereas in the West, all of society collaborates in a downward spiral to do it, which is also heralded and encouraged by law enforcement here too.
