The solution is how we solve it. There’s a technical end to every demand, and at the end of the day regulation only can do so much for both sides. The reality sorts everything else.

The solution you mentioned is valid too.

But you cannot ignore the fact that internet is for everyone and not for google. Google minus all the shit it does to the internet can definitely exist in some form. Claiming it’s either this or nothing is just defeatist.

If google and youtube disappeared tomorrow, I’d be the first among those guys who buy hdds and torrent videos from these. For no money, like I did with all torrents in my life. There would be less professional videos obviously, but almost everyone agrees it’s a good thing (quit SM, anxiety, kids social issues, etc talks).
I have been applying to this job at major brick making toy company for the past 3-4 years that is super dope. But i never get it and neither does anyone else.
Oh yeah, I loved paying more than the purchase price of the car per year as a young driver. I have since crashed 0 cars, I am yet to kill anyone. In fact, the car mechanically totaled itself before I got to finish my years worth of insurance. On which I never got a refund on.

The pay-as-you-drive model might paint a picture of a more equal playing field, where everyone pays what they are due, but I think it is mostly a sham to squeeze more money out of people.
"long long long" is too long for GCC?

It's not allowed here in NYC. I've nearly gotten mowed down by people from the suburbs driving into the city not knowing it's illegal here on a few occasions. They also seem to get pissed and honk at me, as if walking around NYC isn't the default mode of transportation.
That's just what I feel I didn't claim that it actually is just random stuff. But I value clarity and Baudrillard doesn't seem to try to be. However, as I said I do find his general points very valuable just his style is not my cup of tea.

Consider video game RPGs. They're largely based upon D&D, yet they remove the dungeon master entirely. They are enormously more popular than D&D itself.

Now imagine something in between, where you have a video game, but the NPCs and parts of the story are controlled by an LLM. You can give the players much more freedom, and the creators don't have to write thousands of lines of dialog to account for every possible choice a player can make. The game doesn't have to be "on rails" so much, the LLM can help speed the story along when the player gets confused, and you can have NPCs with much more depth than just several lines of static dialog.

How well this will work in practice remains to be seen. In my experience, ChatGPT itself is a painfully generic DM that relies upon repetitive fantasy tropes. You still need an actual human being to create an interesting story and add depth to the world.
When you layoff the worse 5%, you drag the best 5% down too due to their lack of trust in the company. Nobody wants to go above and beyond when companies don’t seem to value employees.

> you just go to SE asia

I could see justifying a trip like that on a cost-of-living basis. If you go to a place like Thailand, you are going to be spending pennies on the dollar vs. the EU, even after paying incredible amounts (in local currency) for first-world conveniences like clean drinking water and internet. So in that sense if you are going to be coding and living life online, you might as well live someplace cheap IRL. But that's different from a tourist crawl where you are just spending money like water, which maybe was more your idea.
Yeah, I moved house recently. The #1 factor for picking the house was the good high school 500m away.

> Npm doesn't really do namespaces.

Yes it really does. npm has namespaces (called scoped packages) and even explicitly encourages their use for private packages to avoid this sort of attack. From the npm docs: "A variant of this attack is when a public package is registered with the same name of a private package that an organization is using. We strongly encourage using scoped packages to ensure that a private package isn’t being substituted with one from the public registry." [1]

> This gives exciting opportunities for you to register cal-home to trap users who miss type, or caII-home to innocuously add to your own or open source projects or whatever. Fun isn't it?

npm actively blocks typo-squatting attacks during the publishing process: "Attackers may attempt to trick others into installing a malicious package by registering a package with a similar name to a popular package, in hopes that people will mistype or otherwise confuse the two. npm is able to detect typosquat attacks and block the publishing of these packages." [1]

This thread is full of people demonstrating the concept of confirmation bias.

you're supposed to slow down at a yellow to prepare to stop, not speed up to get through it, increasing speed through an intersection is inherently dangerous

the author's point is valid and we're falling into pedantry
This is cool! Not entirely sure whether I think it's a good idea, but I wonder if it'd be useful to come up with a way to tranche websites.

Some sites are complete garbage and should be blocked, for course. Others (e.g., in my experience, Quora) are sometimes quite good and sometimes quite bad. Wouldn't be my first choice, but I've found them useful at times.

For a given search, maybe you try with the most aggressive blocking / filtering. If you fail to find what you're looking for, maybe soften the restriction a bit.

Maybe this is overwrought...
> Especially if you compare the US internationally, the average American is such a laggard at working in comparison

In your own link, the US rate is well ahead of the World rate, not a laggard. You probably made the mistake of comparing the World rate on that page (which tracks using the World Bank 15-64 working age population definition) with the US headline labor force participation rate (which uses the 16-and-over population as the denominator, not 15-64). But there is country information on the same World Bank page using consistent labor force definition for comparison to avoid that problem.
This seems to not actually be the case in my experience, because right-turn drivers love to look to the left while turning right, because they are afraid of a fast-moving car appearing from the left, but they think they already verified that no slow-moving peds are crossing on the right.
I think you're romanticising in person meetings, so much wasted time, you don't have other information on hand. These days you have videocalls you didn't have that back then (less ubiquitous).
> You're misunderstanding the point of the great firewall, which is to create an isolation effect on the Chinese net. Obviously a bunch of American e-refugees foils that. This absolutely is a massive change to the status quo.

I think you're misunderstanding. The point of the great firewall is to keep Chinese users from bypassing the Chinese censorship apparatus. A bunch of American e-refugees does not foil that, if all they can say are things acceptable to the Chinese government.

In fact, a bunch of American e-refugees can probably be parlayed into a propaganda win for the Chinese government strengthening the Great Firewall ("our stuff is so good that the Americans are seeking it out. Why look abroad when we have the best stuff? Stay inside the firewall.").
That’s denial. Plenty of mid level startups use AI to write a lot of code that is then human reviewed.
More money in the mortgage principal you theoretically keep when you later downsize housing, but you also will probably spend a good bit more in taxes as well.
A pedestrian scramble means that no vehicles should be moving through the intersection period. It is a time in the cycle where ALL vehicles stop, and pedestrians can use the intersection freely in any direction, including diagonally.
A fine large enough to make bad job postings (genuine or not) unprofitable is fine. We don't need reducto ad absurdum here.

Just make businesses put thought into their postings and not let someone who has no idea of the qualifications right them up themselves.
What you see in football does not represent a continent, though. Where I live in Europe there are people of many races, but I have only heard the word race (in my native language) used only a handful of times in my entire life. Inequality via poverty is a thing, though.
On average you will pay more, but not all at once, which may be prohibitively expensive. There will still be value in insurance.

As another commenter pointed out, if insurance companies had a crystal ball and could perfectly predict each customer's probably of having an accident, and charged them an individualized rate based on future payouts, then we would not need insurance. You could just put those premiums in a savings account and pay for the accident(s) when they happen.

The whole point of insurance is it's a shared risk pool. Arguments like "Bad drivers make YOUR rates go up" just serve to pit customer vs. customer while insurance companies profit.
Definitely when I read his works even though I didn't understand some of his writings it made me think about it.
Facebook is trying to cozy up to Donald Trump, someone that a large portion of their employees hate. Could just as easily be to keep them in line
I think the previous posters point was that an LLM DM is boring due to it's generality and lacks the specific quirks of having a human DM with their own viewpoint and understanding of the players, which I agree with. I did some experiments with earlier ChatGPT models for world building and DMing and found it to be so boring, getting it to do anything interesting or giving any kind of push back was so hard. Since they are an averaging of all knowledge / previous creativity you end up with a smooth surface, but part of what makes stories interesting are the rough edges.

However I also agree with you that being a DM is a prohibitive amount of work for someone, say, with kids and a job. It would be awesome to have an LLM as an assistant, maybe feeding in parts of the story and querying it for ideas when you're in a bind. But having it run as a full DM, at least right now, will likely lead to a boring experience.
> “The sub claim changes in about 0.04% of logins from Log in with Google. For us, that's hundreds of users last week”.

What I don't understand is why the `sub` claim is not consistent for those users at Google. To my understanding of the OIDC protocol the `sub` should be unique for a specific user.

Additionally as far as I understand if you take over a defunct domain and create a new google workspace with new users those new user account should get assigned a new `sub`.
Part of Zucks plan to stop hiring mid-level engineers this year (as he said on JRE)?

I am very very skeptical of this idea - what do you all think?

I thought Indeed charge companies for posting and per applicant clicks? That combined with near 100% university graduate capture is what Japanese job market is like, where their current owner's corporate HQ resides.

In that environment, the agency maximizes clicks and matches because that earns them most. Applicants are lured to maximize numbers of applications and qualifications(and failed matches), hiring companies go FOMO mode, hype up themselves and tighten up requirements. Everyone's paperclipping everything and producing clinically depressed graduates in big batches. It's a huge resource sink. Then of course fake posting problem isn't even remotely gets solved because the power structure builds up in the background in uncaptured dimensions, parallel to the system. You wouldn't want that.
Yea. The leet amount of payout seems like this was someone saying that the classification was technically correct, but it's worth fixing either way and it'd be nice to pay an amount.
Are there laws against companies committing fraud and false advertising? Job sites are directly evolved from classified ads in which ads stands for Advertisement.
I've tried swivelling peelers a few times and every time I return to my forty year old Lancashire peeler with its blade held on the plastic handle with tightly wrapped cotton string. A bit like this one: https://www.pattersons.co.uk/lancashire-peeler.html

I had to replace the string this year though.
...I don't think insurance companies need to track you to realize that you're a young driver.
Ironically I think one huge contribution that YouTube has made for the good is elevating the quality of STEM didactics. Channels like 3blue1brown and Veritasium have shown what STEM instruction could look like when not relegated to tenured professors who DGAF about teaching.

I am talking about the NHS - but challenges around balancing trust v. bureaucracy is universal - public/private, large and small.

The problem of politicians without a small amount of knowledge enough to be dangerous being led astray by consultants with whiteboard/napkin level simplistic visions I suspect also crosses national boundaries.

Oh my goodness, the one time I randomly check the "new" page, I just happen to see this.

I don't want to sound like a fanboy, but this work is incredible. I still pull out 4D Toys on my phone once in a while, despite the fact that I could never spend enough time with them for my brain to build any kind of intuition for the added dimension - but I still can't quite give up on it either.
> citation of what?

Citation that nobody wants what you described? The sentence which I was quoting.

> This is my opinion statement

Your opinon can be that "I don't want this." "nobody wants this" is refers to things outside of your head. Do you see the difference between the two?

> it certainly isn't anything I've written in my post.

Your post is suffused with defeatism. The 3 "no"s it contains are: "nobody wants this", "with current technology this cannot be fun" and an implicit "we can't make the next technology". I believe each of those are wrong, and I'm calling you out on the attitude.
No, because the utility of money isn't linear. It often makes sense to pay a bit more than $1000 to mitigate a 1% chance of losing $100k.
Yep, same. Firefox now is decent, but back in the day it was awful. I remember trying it out early on and immediately going back to IE because Firefox was significantly slower. Chrome was a marked improvement over both IE and Firefox, so it won.

Yes, it's a failure on DankStartup's part.

Not really much different than a user buying dankstartup.net, setting up a catch-all email, observing what comes in, and performing password resets for those accounts, allowing for account takeovers.

Calling it a vuln in oauth may be a bit hyperbolic, but Google could help prevent it.
> This is a shrill take in the same platitudinal vein as saying there should be world peace by now.

But there is. We literally live in the most era time in the entirety of human history.
The point of looking deeper at the actual dynamics is to brainstorm ways intersections could be made safer, without overshooting and then getting a campaign to undo it all in 20 years. For example:

Less visual obstructions so that oncoming traffic can be seen sooner? maybe, but probably not going to change learned behavior

Advance the crosswalk even more, with two separate lights? perhaps on a per-intersection basis

Hard square corner kerb instead of a round bevel? Might help in general.

Incredible vesting schedule
Consider the following: my personal youtube feed has never shown a video of MrBeast. I never asked to remove it from my feed. I only know the he exists because I see it being debated in the media. So, this tells me more about what people in general are interested in and click to watch, than about the nature of youtube itself.

Or we may have to change building materials. In Asia, houses are built using granite foundation, brick and cement walls, and concrete slab roofs. Houses built using those materials don't go up in flames.
Thankfully, big tech hiring whims have very little to do with the 'real' economy. Job growth remains strong, GDP is still very much positive, inflation is low..
> Suppose DankStartup folds … Isn't that a failure on DankStartup's part, to not shut down their business accounts?

Expecting an entity that has already failed* to not fail again isn’t an effective security control, unfortunately.

* - not every startup that folds has “failed”, but the point still stands
A large earthquake can trigger earthquakes in distant locations
Not sure if it’s still around but there was a local bartender there who made his own high quality version of Malört. You could find it at a few distributors around called “franklins malort” but I heard they got a cease letter and then renamed it to “bësk”. Compared to the jepesens was like bud light to a craft brew. Way better balance, still the bitter grapefruit, but also with a ton of other aromatics and spices. That stuff was delicious.
Instantly? You're definitely not in North America. Many intersections around me, if you missed pressing the crossing button before parallel street had a green light, you missed your opportunity to walk for the next minute.

I remember when we were in a recession post 9/11 prices were dropping left and right, but right now prices continue to increase and people seem to be paying them. Can we really say that's a notable decline in economic activity?
I assume you mean the perpendicular direction crossing lights?
Most pedestrian lights have delays longer than that in California for safety so you might stop at a green light.

Also, if nobody presses a button ped-lights don't even turn on, just like left turn signals don't turn on without a vehicle triggering it.
Wasn't that the previous one?
Very nonsensical statement, as it helps a lot since decades and allows faster traffic flow in roundabouts.
I tend to agree. I used to run Call of Cthulhu in high school, and there was a lot of preparation involved in running a good scenario. Some people are good at winging it and making stuff up as they go along. I never was. The best experiences for me and my players was always when I'd meticulously designed my own scenario, or used a store-bought scenario and read it thoroughly. Either way, hours of prep.

I would love to have an AI as an assistant Dungeon Master (or game master, or Keeper, or what have you). That is, one person in a group of players maintains the role of a master storyteller, but the AI is ready to fill in details or suggest ways to get the players back on track. This would probably be tedious if you're interacting with the LLM entirely through text, and having to manually keep it up to date with the story. But it could work well if you have a model that understands spoken language listening in on the game and generating cool images and making private suggestions to the game master.
It's the hammer I have and it works on those nails, hah.
Cyber plumbing
That’s great for them, and despite all available evidence, I hope they can make it work.

AI can definitely help people work sometimes, maybe to the tune of obviating some need for additional staff, but I doubt it.
Bat houses can take 5 years before bats will decide to live in them - they won't just settle in some strange box because they found it. This lag time makes it very difficult to determine if the bats will like your box, but just need more time - or if there is some aspect about the placement or location of the box that means they will never take up residence in it.

This essay might win an award for having the most words for the simplest point made. The genuflecting and synthesized history lesson that it's the first 3/4 of it was an entirely unnecessary diversion.

There is and always will be those who take earnest and reasonable ways of describing beliefs and behaviors and turn them into hyperbolic ad-hominem at both ends of the spectrum. If we are aware of it, and use common sense and a little bit of critical thinking, there will be less of this.

Did that take pages of text? No.
That is likely increasingly less relevant as battery technology matures. Back in 2013 the situation was entirely different, and off the shelf cells were all designed for things like laptop computers.
