> That’s also not to mention guns and all kinds of other dangerous & illegal parts of it.

I think it isn't mentioned because Silk Road didn't actually facilitate any selling/buying of weapons or any items "whose purpose was to "harm or defraud."" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silk_Road_(marketplace)#Produc...

> I do not understand why he pardoned this guy when he’s supposedly anti-drug and anti-cartel.

He's the candidate that was preferred by Christians, yet probably he was the least Christian-like candidate. Just today/yesterday he criticized a Bishop for values that are clearly Christian, people seem to swallow it. I'm pretty sure trying to add logic/reasoning to the choices he makes is a lost cause.
Why is he describing emotionally a factual event? He is leaving facts up to assumptions. I suppose sure, his intent was to confuse people. It worked.
> But small very undeveloped tribes had nothing of such, so they have no incentives to slaughter each other.

With neither size nor technology to make a lasting impact, the ones that got slaughtered didn't exactly leave much in archeological evidence behind for us to find.

As for GP's point, obviously those people weren't bred for battle with others. All the tiny tribes would happily frolic in the forest or whatever small prehistoric tribes did when they weren't starving, but eventually they'd grow in size, hit a size limit leading to a new tribe splitting off, etc.; over time, the number of tribes grew to the point that they started to bump into each other and contest the same resources, leading to the obvious outcome.
Well, it's a huge jump, but it's still a jump from "it generates utter illogical nonsense when it tries to simulate reason" to "it makes some correct guesses that start to resemble reasoning if we squint at it really hard."

Which is - no doubt - an astonishing achievement, but absolutely not like the "AI" hype train people try to paint it.

The "rapidly approaching" part is true in terms of the velocity, but all of this are just baby steps while walking upright properly is way beyond the horizon.

I wouldn't mind being wrong about this, of course.

You're assuming good faith of these committees. Comes down to who you trust.

I voted in Trump to do this and more, I trust the evaluations were made properly and I support the decision.

There's obvious bias in your tone (which is okay, which is why I stated my position) so it makes sense you don't like this move because you don't trust this administration.

We're similar in that regard in that I don't trust the government implicitly, which is why I support culling bloat.

Couldn't we say the same about you?
No :) There must be a difference in electrical potential for current to flow between two points.

If the body is insulated from ground, the body is at the same potential. No current flows. No material conducts anything :)

For the same reasons, high voltage repairs can be done live from a helicopter: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=9YmFHAFYwmY

Around 1:10 you can see the lineman connect the mains to the helicopter, to neutralize any potential difference.

After that, the lineman and the helicopter are at the same potential as the cable, so no current flows.

If someone dropped a line from the heli to the ground however.. zap!

> Does this capital being private ensure "this time will be different"?

South America didn't have a mix of domestic and foreign investors deploying massive quantities of private money into capital assets in the 60s and 70s. They had governments borrowing to fund their citizens' consumption. Massive difference on multiple levels.

>NGAD fighter was confirmed in 2022 not to have entered this phase indicated it may not enter service until the latter half of the 2030s

Really understating it. If J36 follows J20 LRIP, PRC will have them in service by 2030 and 100s by 2035.

>hopes in the United States that use of advanced digital assembly and testing technologies was expected to significantly accelerate NGAD’s development and reduce costs, the value of these technologies was conceded by Secretary Kendall to have been “over-hyped.”

Hilariously J36 designer insinuated PRC is basically going to be doing this + essentially Digital Century Series of rapid iteration -> turn high end weapons platform procurement into smart phones. We already see PRC EV bringing design to production timeline from 5 years to 18 months. Which puts them in position to respond to relevant US NGAD developments. US needs to learn to design + build fast.

Get them a Roth IRA. Put $7k in it each year as long as you can. Invest the Roth in an index fund, dividend fund, or straight up picks. Have them put into the fund as soon as they are able (summer jobs, etc)

If you have enough, buy another property. Your kids can live in it or manage it later.

Put stuff in trusts or be sure they can manage it effectively. The thing you most want (probably) is for them to be secure into their old age, long after you are gone. But they will start feeling secure by middle age, and you will all be happier.
> "housing is an investment" policies have been propped up by lending. What an insane idea.

Lending money for housing is not insane. Houses are durable goods where most of the cost needs to be paid up front. The builder of the house is paying for a structure that will house people for 50+ years. This duration mismatch is exactly what lending is supposed to help with.

Lending is not the problem. People were complaining it was when interest rates were at 0%. Now they are at 7%, but housing prices are still high.

Lack of supply is the problem.
I’m not sure if it applies with all birds, but many seem to become fixated on humans. This can happen if you care for very young, sick or injured birds. My wife cares for various sad cases and if she isn’t careful they stay with with us.

There's a weird unnamed proto-field I've seen signs of emerging out of many different areas. I don't know what to call it, maybe digital construction or programmable matter.

Examples include Lee Cronin and Sara Walker's assembly theory, David Deutsch and Chiara Marletto's constructor theory, Neil Gershenfeld's work. Closely related are ideas from synthetic biology and molecular nanotechnology. Some of these people are trying to advance complex systems theory and involved with SFI. You can see this thing trace back to at least the 50s with Turing's morphogenesis paper and Von Neumann's work on automata.

All of this seems unorganized but promising.
Another good perspective on the early days of PC Software is "Software People" (1985) https://www.amazon.com/Software-People-Insiders-Personal-Com... by Doug Carlston who was the founder of Broderbund Software.
It's easier for people on HN to give meaningful feedback if you remove this restriction.

On the other hand, charging money is a sound way to validate a business idea...with the caveat that HN is not a particularly rich target demographic for your product.

Good luck.
Sorry I don't think your response really gets to the point. I'm aware of various techniques like contracts, but you're speaking in generalities rather than specifics. So yes, I haven't quite understood what you meant.

This is a common frustration I have with OOP discourse, it tends to be really up-in-the-air and not grounded in concrete specifics. (The article you linked also has this issue.) Meanwhile, users suffer in ways that just don't happen with typeclass-based polymorphism, and none of this discourse is required in my world. So why should I not recommend everyone use typeclass-based polymorphism?

> I am not sure that you understood what i wrote. Inheritance's flexibility is its very strength

No, being too flexible is a weakness, not a strength. At scale, rigorous discipline enforced by tooling is required.

> Also no amount of Automation/Tooling/etc. can substitute for documentation explaining the intent behind the code.

Yes, of course documentation is required. What I'm saying is that if it can be automated, it should be, and that relying on documentation alone is foolish.

In particular, invariants like "no downcalls" or "no upcalls" should 100% be enforced by automation. Documentation is not enough at scale and under pressure.

> i suggest creating a sample MFC app using Visual Studio C++ wizard

I'd rather not?

> The framework invokes your derived methods (i.e. downcall) which can as needed call back to base's method (i.e. upcall).

This sounds really bad to me at scale and under pressure.
More like basic authoritarianism.

Ah so it's commissioned in 2040 and renewables already made it obsolete.
To suggest there hasn't been a cultural shift is insane, imo.

I wouldn't argue that both sides have gotten more extreme, rather the political spectrum curve has flattened. There is much less rational discourse in general.

Reddit is a great example. Even 10 years ago you could have mostly rational discussions. Now its no better than Facebook. I saw a post today about people being upset the government is giving OpenAI half a trillion dollars. They didn't even realize it wasn't government money. They didn't want to be corrected.
I’ve encountered a couple of these Sunfish (“Mola mola”) in the wild off the coast of Southern California. They’re absolutely incredible to see in person and massive! While it seemed to enjoy our presence we made sure not to get too close or they might mistake your boat for a rock and try to flop on board, which is the only way they’ve ever killed a human. I’ve read they move to warmer waters as they age and the ones I saw were “only” around 800-1200 pounds. The ones around Indonesia can be 3000 pounds or more. Fascinating creature.
Yeah both the UK and US are notorious for NIMBYism. People filing lawsuits as like a hobby, because they want to stop all development. In these countries it's far to easy for a small group of complainers to grind the entire system to a halt and burn endless amounts of time and money. It seems particularly bad in the anglosphere.

"- Delete content apps"
This is key.

"- Delete the browser from the phone."
This is hard because the browser has other uses. I've found similar results by just signing out of any social media accounts on my phone.

Reddit is useable without being signed in, but just barely. It's certainly not as addicting as it is with an account. Twitter doesnt let me see anything without an account. Same with TikTok. I went ahead and deleted my accounts entirely but you can also just make the password hard to type and remove it from any password managers so its difficult to sign in.

This has pretty much cut my Reddit time from an hour+ a day into 5-10 minutes a day.
That's still possible (and in some cases, plumber/carpenter/contractor is perhaps the best option still available).

What we're seeing is at least partially the result of everyone going to college for something like a few decades.

Deciding to be apprentice to a plumber at 17 is much different than having to do the same at 21/23 because the degree you went into debt for isn't panning out the way you wanted.

You're 4+ years behind, you're some amount of debt in the hole, and you're having to work hard.

(Average student loan debt is something like $37k, which isn't the cost of a house, but is certainly close to a down payment.)

Even if you treat _reddit_ as like you'd treat, say, Comcast under net neutrality rules (this is kind of what the EU DMA rules do, to some extent, say, though those do not apply to reddit as it is too smol), it doesn't necessarily follow that you would treat /r/cooking or whatever like Comcast under net neutrality rules.

MasterCard is not alone. On of the [smaller] Canadian banks and Canada Post had similar issues and yes, reply was also in a style "We have looked into the matter and there was not a risk to our systems".

The legislation has been watered down by lobbying of the trillion-dollar tracking industry.

You met some tanuki, 100%.
Seems cool, what is the top use case?
With 100% humidity you definitely can't survive or function but with 95% at 100F exactly it's just barely feasible. That gives you just enough margin due to evaporative cooling that with sufficient air flow you can maintain a temperature of 97-98F via evaporative cooling. And importantly this only works in the shade. Outdoors it's unlikely to be feasible due to the rise in surface temperatures due to thermal radiation from the sun.

That of course requires a strong fan blowing and regular, heavy hydration to sustain but it's feasible. So it's workable in an industrial environment where you can adjust the environment enough to get by but outdoors in large wild spaces like the Grand Canyon (as per your example) it's unlikely to be survivable for long.

And notably in an indoor environment there is a big difference between an operator running a machine or vehicle and an individual under heavy exertion. The added thermal stress of heavy exertion makes it less survivable as well.

So in the end it only really works in factory settings because:

- There's no sun to add radiative heat.

- There's fans and ventilation to maintain evaporative cooling.

- Workers can take regular or semi-regular breaks in a cooler or lower humidity environment to recover some from the thermal stress and to recover water and electrolytes.

- Those workers can limit their activity to rates of exertion/heat production that don't exceed the limited evaporative cooling they have access to.

As soon as you remove one of those advantages or increase the temperature much above 100F or increase the RH above 95%, survivability becomes way less likely.
