The US government generally works to maintain harmful institutions like health insurance, gun manufacturing, prisons and policing, etc., and will oppose me through violence if I work to weaken these. They can restrict my access to things online and control what online services I can run via laws like SESTA/FOSTA and this TikTok ban. China can't do any of that to me. I'm less concerned about geopolitics given our massive military and the position of the dollar, not to mention our cultural influence via the Internet (which bans like this directly weaken).
My TikTok feed is full of very much adults and who own small businesses. I’ve seen some people in college, but there’s no kids in my feeds.

More generally all of modern technology is a result of the exact same processes that led to the theory of evolution. If you reject it where do you draw the line?

"Believing in Creation doesn't turn you into an illiterate moron"

You kinda do have to be a moron to be a true young earth creationist. I went to Lutheran schools that taught me that the earth was created by god 6000 years ago and evolution was an evil plot created by Satan. By the time I was 15 I realized how stupid this was and how the theory of evolution fits the evidence and is self-consistent. One of the biggest realizations I had is that the theory of evolution, due to requiring such VAST amounts of time for evolution to occur, actually has nuclear fusion embedded in it as a dependency because nothing else could allow a star to shine for so long. When Darwin first proposed the theory a major and reasonable objection was the timescales needed because at the time it was thought that the Sun was powered only by gravitational collapse which would last less than 20 million years. Then this utterly absurd source of power for stars was discovered that could allow them to last for almost 1000 times as long.

Of course it exists! Most other countries in the world have it. I don't know exactly what the path towards a good healthcare system looks like in the US, but I do know and regret heavily that my uncompromising anti-murder stance will prevent me from endorsing any reform proposal that's associated with Luigi memes.

I'm sorry that your frustrations with the healthcare system have driven you to embrace evil and I really hope the day will come when you reconsider.
Ask HN: Best ways/courses/books to learn about data understanding (analytics?)
Question as title.
38 seems young to quit. Is there another story here?
The framing here is pretty ridiculous. Israel definitely punches back much harder than Hamas, but comparing October 7th to a punch and Israel's response to running over babies with a bulldozer is absurd.

Hamas blatantly escalated the conflict by a large margin, there's no denying that. You can't cry over your adversary's response when you do something like that, I'm sorry. Next time keep your hands to yourself, or perhaps just continue throwing rockets at civilians: Israel seems to be willing to tolerate that.

Yeah. I don't know if it scales to adding a blog either, which I have been thinking about doing.
Why are you setting your bar this way? Is it because of how they do their feature releases (no warning of it being an alpha or beta feature)? Their product, ChatGPT was released 2 years ago, and is a fairly complicated product. My understanding was the whole thing is still a pretty early product generally. It doesn't seem unusual that any startup doing something as big as they are to release features that don't have all the kinks ironed out. I've released some kinda janky features to 100,000s of users before not totally knowing how it's going to preform with all of them at that scale, I don't think that is very controversial in product development.

Also, I was specifically talking about it being able to understand the features it has in my earlier comment, I don't think that is the same problem as the remind me feature not working consistently.
>Due to this approach, women's lives are often lost to history - especially their intimate lives. One example of this is an antler bone found with 28 notches engraved on its side. Male archaeologists proclaimed the item was used by male farmers to count cattle; modern female archaeologists suggested it was used for tracking menstrual cycles instead.

follow the link on antler bone and learn that evidently nobody knows what it was used for.

anyway, in following the scolding moralistic tone of the article I read it all and I learned that evidently gay men did not exist during any of these ages of the earth and all sex toy usage was by the women. Hoist by their own petard, ironic that.

Color is definitely something that catches a person's eye, so if you have a "food product" that needs extra to convince someone to buy it, color is a way to do it. You can't taste it before purchasing. You can see and smell it, so they push those levers as much as they can.
Visuals have a pretty big impact on food. I wonder how many foods would just look disgusting without any food dyes. Reminds me of butter companies trying to pass legislation to make margerine companies unable to dye their product to look like butter

I'm looking for resources (books, YT channels, twitter accounts) that teach the magic of engineering. I don't have a specify area of interest atm; I am a freshman.

Thank you!
> Do you really want to force good students to have to be in the same classroom as the kind of students who get expelled from public schools?

Where precisely do you think "the kind of kids who get expelled from public schools" should be? I mean that literally, concretely.

Do we send them home where they are statistically much more likely to be abused and not have access to reliable nutrition? Imprison them? Ship them to some sort of Lord of the Flies island?

Do I want disruptive kids in the same room as my kids? Not really. Is it the least bad place I can think of to put them? Unfortunately, yes.

This is a deeply hard problem. Sure, if you only care about well-behaved kids it's easy: kick out the bad eggs and forget they ever existed. But if you consider that those bad kids are actual people who will still participate in your society, you need some solution for how to help them.

That has interesting implications. What goes in as training data often comes out later as replies to questions.
The one I heard was: "Dad, can you show me Minecraft? All my friends keep talking about Minecraft, but I don't understand it. I want to know more about Minecraft".

If you don't give the stuff to your kids, they get socially excluded.

The best we can do is to teach them how to use stuff in moderation. Show them how excessive usage can go bad: there are plenty of examples around, all the time.

Also, with shorting the best you can do is double your money (if the stock goes to 0), while you can lose an unlimited amount (as there’s no cap on a rising stock); whereas with going long, you can only lose all your money (again, if it goes to 0), but you can gain an unlimited amount.

That is an interesting video! Your writing made me expect the neural network had changed gravity as hacky part of its solution, but it's the creator trying to train a neural network to balance a simulated double pendulum and failed, and then wondered if he could train a simpler version in a simulation with no gravity and high friction to make it easy, then see if the solution can gradually be retrained to cope as he adjusts those to full gravity and normal friction. The visualisations in it are very good.
The service is fine. The lines and waits are horrendous and a DMV never seems to have the seating room for that. So you spend an hour before you even get in the door like you're waiting for a new iPhone or something.

I agree with you on Django Ninja, so refreshingly simple compared to DRF. I think Django core needs to adopt something like it.

However, Vite is pretty complicated. I prefer just esbuild if I don't need all the extra features of Vite, which is usually true with Django. I wrote a post[0] with an example repo[1] if anyone wants to see how everything wires up.

With Solidjs, the minimum JS payload is around 9kb, and you get access to the whole JS ecosystem if you want it.

The entirety of Hamas leadership is gone, Hamas will most likely not going to have control in Gaza (still being debated which mechanism will govern, this is part of the deal), the crossing to Egypt will be handled by foreign countries which will prevent weapon smuggling. And in the broader spectrum, hizballah is not more, Assad is no more, all of Iran’s proxies can no longer support Hamas’ ambitions which basically means the “mokawamma” is dead.
So in short, the entire Middle East have changed.

Eventually and it was massively controversial within academia. There were studies that showed it worked, but studies are positivist and for many education academics, positivist is an insult. That's why it took literally generations and a political war to soak into academia at large after the science was uncontroversial.

And what I'm saying is you don't need civil forfeiture for that. Use the normal process for abandoned property. The idea civil forfeiture being "rooted" in how we handle abandoned property is a bad excuse because we don't use civil forfeiture for abandoned property.

Yes, but at least in the USA, I constantly have to hear shouting about how "free" everything is whenever I ask for sane regulations (guns), or something like universal healthcare.

If USA was actually so free, that would at least be consistent. But now I don't get TikTok, AND kids have to run around with bullet proof vests? I get all the bad, none of the good.

Every voting citizen should remember that this TikTok ban was bipartisan. That means they all cared more about this than ANY other sensible legislation. Banning child marriage? Nah! Protecting the childrens physical bodies in school was not as important as a hypothetical "mind attack" from TikTok.

It's 2025, if you're just seeing the trouble with Elon now you're probably not as smart as you think you are. He's a fake and a con artist, and when he's not those things he's a ruthless tyrant. It's not a credit to Sam's moral character, which he clearly rates very highly, that he was ever friends with the guy in the first place. Sam likes elites, but he prefers them more refined. He's just lamenting that Elon's letting it all hang out now.
> I assume they don't pattern the unused area, so the process should be quicker?

The primary driver of time and cost in the fabrication process is the number of layers for the wafers, not the surface area, since all wafers going through a given process are the same size. So you generally want to maximize the number of devices per wafer, because a large part of your costs will be calculated at the per-wafer level, not a per-device level.
Sales people work within the policies & frameworks set by a sales organizations whose goals and strategies are set by said organizations leadership team.

This isn't a random sales person gone rouge—its a matter of how Cloudflare chooses to do business with and treat their customers.

The problem with this approach for customers is that it makes there costs entirely unpredictable. What's the stop them from increasing prices from $2,000 on the enterprise plan to $20,000 on the enterprise plus plan?
> the algorithm will learn you like authenticity and show you more of it.

Jesus, this is like a line out of a William Gibson novel. I hope you wrote that aware of the irony inherent in it.

> There's serious tradeoffs and differences, there's negatives compared to other countries.

The collectivism of the society which both gives them a public sense of ownership of the whole country (thus, the caring), also yields crazy bullying in school and work, a high suicide rate, and lots of racist and xenophobic attitudes.

Maybe it's changing. It's been a long time since I spent any real time in Japan. My buddy who grew up in Tokushima also is out of touch with how things are there now. Who knows?
I broadly agree with this, but there was a path for the Tiktok app to not be banned, which is basically the China playbook of handing over control to a domestically controlled entity. Which in the case of a social media company with the reach of Tiktok i don't think is unreasonable.

Strengthened laws would be welcome, but all the social media companies would resist this as hard as they can. I don't see any real regulation happening until there is a crisis of some sort that will push it through against all the lobbyists and bought politicians.
I don't mind when language changes for a good reason. Maybe we're doing (or have) a new kind of thing and the old description of it was awkward. But changing the meaning or context of an existing word for the sake of _style_ is annoying and ought to be called out because it just adds the potential for utterly pointless confusion.
I left the site even before Ryan left, but yeah, he was the best person to steward it at forward. It’s been junk for a very long time.
What do I need to know about on-prem deployment?
We (Asteroid W25) haven't deployed our software (https://asteroid.ai) to an enterprise customer on premises before. The customer needs to run our platform offline in an airgapped environment. The project is containerised and orchestrated with docker compose currently. The client is fine to not receive the source code and is happy to just receive pre-built images.

I think a fair few problems are going to arise here, namely things like: shipping regular updates, multi-arch builds etc.

Does anyone here have a good list of things we should be thinking about when doing our first on-premises deployment, or other points/resources we should have in mind?

Much appreciated

Ur obviously twisting my words, I'm colloquially referring to our republic by calling it a democracy, if I was for direct democracy, I wouldn't support congress.

Whether we have independent agencies is completely orthogonal to whether we are a republic or not. Even if all of these agencies were under the executive, we would still be a republic. And no, I don't support the independent nature of these agencies. The president and/or congress should be able to control these agencies directly. Knocking down the chevron deference is step 1 to eliminating statutory power.

Your statement is not accurate based on the Workspace docs.
Agreed! I've been deliberately substituting "personnel" instead.
Good question. I think the wafer has a cost per area which is fairly significant, but I don't have any figures. There has historically been a push to utilise them more efficiently, eg by building fabs that can process larger wafers.
Although mask exposure would be per processed area, I think that there are also some proportion of processing time which is per wafer, so the unprocessed area would have an opportunity cost relating to that.

No. The reason is that they have not been price competitive with renewables.

And so there isn't the volume of approvals that gives regulators experience which in turn reduces approval times.

> It is amusing that the reaction to using a Chinese app being banned because your government says it is dangerous to give them your information

my guess is that nigh 100% of tiktok users think the app is getting banned because the government is some combination of capricious, bought, and incompetent. their stated reasons for banning it barely register.
Tobiko Acquires Quary (YC W24)
It's a win because they have to test one chip, and don't have to spend resources on connecting the chiplets. The latter costs a lot (though it has other advantages). I suspect that a chiplet-based device with total 900k cores would just be not viable due to the size constraints.

If their routing around the defects is automated enough (given the highly regular structure), it may be a massive economy of efforts on testing and packaging the chip.

Yeah, it’s pretty bad, embarrassingly so quite honestly. Literally a single developer in a day could probably significantly improve it. I’m sure that’s coming, but why don’t they just launch these MVP features at least a quarter baked. It’s essentially unusable as is. If it could ping me on my phone And advanced voice could open or I could go do a basic task, great I’m back to using it. But essentially as it is rolled out, it’s hilariously minimal and borderline unusable.
Really depends on the context. And the rule. Some rules are stupid, some situations have no rules but "expectations" ("Have it your way" is a famous slogan arguably perverted by reasoning for a few people). The rules could be made for powertripping reasons or safety reasons.
Doesn't it work the other way round? You'd have to prove that they are a national security risk? Because it's hard to prove a negative.
