There is actual political program and actual laws being pushed on. That is the reality. And yes, that political program belongs to that side.

It is OK to blame republicans as such for what Trump or JD Vance does, because they made them big. It is ok to blame them for the for the supreme court politics too, because they knowingly put exactly those people there, knowing they will remove protection for abortion and lied about it.

It is OK to blame democrats for what Biden does.

For the both sides thing however, you need to attribute acts of people who Democratic party actively pushes away to that party ... and to pretend that people voting for republicans have zero to do with what that party does.
Thank you for doing this. I don’t know if this is part of your expertise. I am planning of incorporating the holding of my start up in Delaware, the startup is located in Dubai (I am a resident there, German origin, my co-founder US passport holder). As we are planning on targeting US investors we decided to have the holding in Delaware. Now the question is, what are the potential tax implications for a company from the outside incorporating a holding in Delaware. (1) Is the operational business taxable in the US? Is there a threshold? Or would it only play a role once we would potentially sell the company? The feedback we are receiving is not very straightforward. (2) I am aware that my confounder obviously needs to report to the IRS, but would him holding an Us passport also have an impact on the company or this is completely separate?

It might be reasonable to disregard Mr. Graham if he were somehow abusing the term "woke", but it seems wrongheaded to disregard him due to "the mere fact that [he] takes the word "woke" seriously".
I wonder if fewer reliable energy gradients means hyperspecialization around smaller niches.
… justified going to against individuals you disagree with?

I don’t do anything at this time. But I understand why there are those who do have vitriol for supporters of a rapist who lusts after his own daughter. There are times when a nation’s society fractures as the social cohesion evaporates. We are beginning to be in such a time in the U.S. Well, it appears that way to me. Only time will tell.
Look around Wikipedia, you find a little more info re slavery and this ship. Kansas and Missouri were on the violent border with a mixture of pro and anti-slavery views, even as the geographical boundary of allowed slavery separated "the south". The museum website says there's clothing on the ship that has a pro-slavery mark, to be sent to some store. The ship at one time was boarded by pro-slavery forces who found hidden guns that were being shipped to abolitionists. It does not appear they sent slaves on it en mass.

There were plenty of people who were pro slavery in those days. Mixed all across the US, read Mark Twain. There were plenty of people against it.

More to the point, I wonder if the museum addresses this. I'm going to guess only in a small way, having lived half my life in the south. Maybe someone with actual knowlege can comment instead of web search "experts" like me.
This isn't my experience at all, and I've been in London tech for 8 years now. I'm not entirely sure what "low respect" means here, but anywhere I've worked the company is pretty wary of knarking of their developers because we can just up and find another job basically immediately. We get paid a fair bit too - not sure compared to finance, but not hard to hit the 95th percentile or so.
The constitution explicitly gives the government the power to regulate commerce with foreign nations. Nothing about this is arbitrary, it is merely the government catching up with new technology and bringing regulation of that technology closer in line with regulation of existing technology. Foreign governments or companies controlled by foreign governments have been prohibited from holding radio licenses since 1934.

Really? Because I can swap a SIM card between phones in 30 seconds whereas swapping eSIM lies between "hoping it works" and "not possible", passing by "you'll need a document" or "visit the store, if it's anywhere in your city/country"

The CCP has fully subscribed to irredentism and it has popular support in the mainland. Taiwan will never not matter.

But otherwise I agree with the rest of your argument.
It is less socially acceptable in some cultures, more in others.

The fact that a gradient exists is proof that, under different circumstances, the social acceptableness of hatred can change.

It sounds like you're saying that there's some content on TikTok that Instagram Reels/YouTube Shorts/etc. won't allow on their platforms. Is that correct? If so, can you give an example?
> "wait, we need to be more cautious about this"? Or do both sides just want their demands to be accepted?

I think that yours "wait, we need to be more cautious about this" or is this just another "I do not care about answers, I just want to pretend so".

> Would either side actually back down if the research said that what they were doing was harmful or ineffective?

Research is there and it is saying current clinics were not harmful and were not ineffective. So yes, one side cares about research and the other is not.

Ask HN: Seeking an IPL-V Interpreter
(Part of) the team who recently reanimated the original ELIZA (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42746506) is now working to reanimate what are often considered the first AIs -- the symbolic heuristic programs built by Newell and co at RAND in the 1950. Most of these programs were written in IPL-V, the fascinating (if ugly) machine level language for a stack machine that was the first to introduce list processing, recursion, and symbolic computing, among other innovations that we take for granted today.

There were many implementations of IPL-V. According to the manual (https://bitsavers.org/pdf/rand/ipl/Information_Processing_La...) implementations existed for at least these machines: B220, CDC 1604 and G-20, Ferranti Mercury, IBM 650, 704, 709-7090, 1620, Philco 2000, UNIVAC 1105 and 1107, and the AN/FSQ-32 (whatever that was). And we know that it was also on the IBM 360 and 7094.

If you have access to a code archive for any of these machines, and can search it for the IPL-V interpreter, we would greatly appreciate it. (A print out is fine -- preferred in fact!) We are building one ourselves in (ironically) Lisp, but it would be amazing to be able to run an original stack, as we did with the 7094->CTSS->MAD stack in reanimating ELIZA.

We (obviously) open source everything we do.

You can post here, or DM me (my email is in my "HN about"). Thanks!

Since you guys opened this discussion, it's Colombo, not Columbus. It's Magalhães (learn to pronounce it), not Magellan, and so on.

To be fair I live in Zone 2 and I can be on old canals and villages (albeit now subsumed into London) in ~20 minutes walking. I grew up in rural Wales, and as nice an upbringing it was, there's a reason I have a single family member left, who's trying to move away!
It makes a lot of sense. If you came to my house and started talking nonsense, I would ask you to leave the house, not stand with my eyes closed and ears plugged in my own house while you continued to rant to my guests.
Trump is very stupid be he hasn't (so far) sentenced anyone to 30 years in prison for not using enough rebar.
This has been going on long before Trump even thought about going into politics.

There is a reason the US does not recognize the ICC.
And we also know they have the plans ready to free any soldier from the Netherlands _if_ we were to arrest a American soldier.

And the US _will_ execute that plan. And the Netherlands _will_ sit back and let it happen.

See, the world is a big schoolyard, and America is tired of shaking people down for protection money and threatens us "to start protecting ourselves".

I don't like Trump, but I can't deny he accelerates events that should have started a while back. Very good for our future, not so much for the US. But that's what they voted for.
I found a pack of 10 5mg bottles in a Discord group for $90 For me that would be a year's worth. Comes with 3rd party testing. Haven't pulled the trigger on that deal yet but I do have some I got for $50 for a 5mg bottle and that's still a hell of a deal. So far so good.
> I don’t think there’s anything stopping

There absolutely is. The current form factor is not standard PCIe. It is a OAM/UBB board that is custom designed by AMD to support Infinity Link. It only comes in an 8x configuration. Now, you're asking for a totally different design and that requires a huge investment that would take away from their existing focus on enterprise.

It's a response to the fact that democrats can create widespread misperceptions through their control of traditional media. For example, in 2018, 66% of Democrats believed that "Russia tampered with vote tallies to get Donald Trump elected President." https://today.yougov.com/politics/articles/20383-russias-imp.... Hillary Clinton never went out and said quite that. But the barrage of coverage from all angles in the media created the same impression as if she had said that.

In another example: how many people know that, after the 2000 election, the Supreme Court found 7-2 that Al Gore's proposed recount strategy was unconstitutional? Nobody knows that Al Gore had employed a strategy of hand-counting ballots only in counties he had won to find more countable votes that would swing disproportionately in his favor.[1] The media completely blacked that out, and everyone now only remembers the 5-4 part of the decision addressing how to fix that constitutional violation. There's more people under the misimpression that Kathleen Harris or Jeb fixed the election in Bush's favor than understand the sneaky maneuvering by Gore that precipitated the whole mess.

[1] E.g. if Gore won a county 2:1, then statistically, every vote rejected by the machine that could be hand counted would be twice as likely to be a Gore vote than a Bush vote. Gore found a loophole in Florida election law that allowed him to use that principle to find more votes in his favor by seeking hand recounts only in two large counties he had won.
> Even in the HN thread on the essay, it felt like hardly anyone actually read and understood it, just brought their own assumptions and intellectual allergies and let them run wild. It would be great if people could discuss these issues rationally, but the vast majority can't. Everyone is on a hair trigger.

I think the essay was a rorschach test for readers. On its face, it has a very reasonable and measured tone. It also has some nods to the other side like the disclaimer you mentioned. However, it starts from some uncharitable premises (e.g., its definition of wokeness) and contains unnecessary gibes (e.g., against social sciences). More importantly, it takes the tone of a social sciences essay, a discipline that he mocks, without any of the rigor. There are not sources for his claims about the origins of wokeness or how universities operated from the 80's until today, you just have to take him at face value. It gives the illusion of being erudite without doing any of the actual work.
Thank you a lot. Were Trump to sign new executive orders regarding immigration today, would that affect the current instructions on USCIS website immediately?

In my local city there was conservative article about unisex bathroom putting framing it as transgender thing.

The bathroom was unisex when I was a kid, when trans were universally mocked. Bathroom is unisex, cause there is exactly one toilette in a small cafe in a super old building.

The old continent is shaken to the very core but somehow we are still in the denial phase.

I am not sure we are in denial. Have you seen defense spending since the invasion of Ukraine? Moscow failed blackmailing member states using gas. There was pretty good collective purchasing and distribution of COVID vaccinations, etc.

It's just a very slow process with 27 member states. But it seems that every crisis so far as accelerated European integration, which is a win.

Peptides are especially promising candidates for antibiotic-resistant pathogens

The cutting edge of research in this field involves building machine learning models to predict which sequences of amino acids will be bio-active against certain pathogens

Progress towards antimicrobial peptides is slowed by scattered, poorly maintained, and small datasets of peptide sequences paired with experimentally verified properties.
“I think the bigger problem is the enemy from within,” Trump said. He added: “We have some very bad people. We have some sick people, radical left lunatics. And I think they’re the big — and it should be very easily handled by, if necessary, by National Guard, or if really necessary, by the military, because they can’t let that happen.”

> Curiously, the fact that the founders of Twitter have been slow to monetize it may in the long run prove to be an advantage.

This is the way in part things were done 'back then' (and for sure even now). As people might recall search engines like excite.com (long long gone as a practical search engine) made statements that you'd never be able to pay for search rank (and google didn't monetize at first either). Noting that monetizing requires also people to set that up, sell, market and manage it.
Not gp, but I feel similarly. For me, I can't help read it with emphasis. As in, the voice in my head gets all fancy in an annoying way. If you imagine someone in person reading it out-loud with exaggerated emphasis, that's what it feels like. Same thing with comic books for me, the sprinkled bolded words in dialog are really grating.
> Don't you see how 2 and 3 contradict 1?

Nope.

Because even with the lower H1B wage, it is still 3x higher than Europe.

Europeans know this. Americans know this. And you know this.

Nope.

It just turns out, ambitious Europeans don’t give a shit about work life balance. Hence the desire to move to US.
O1 requires you have considerable outstanding achievements [0], such as widely recognized international rewards, being featured in major publications, scholarly articles, or etc. I don't see how a food truck would help you qualify for any of those. Demanding a high salary, which I assume you do at FAANG, would only tick one box, but to qualify you need to tick at least three.

I'm 10% through, like what I've seen so far.
Fair point, but it doesn't point directly toward "intentional derogatory perversion by the US government".

Also keep in mind that the official name is not in English. And what is the standard process for nations to produce "official" foreign-language names for internal subgovernmental organizations, anyway?

Is there an official name in French, or Mandarin, for the Blue Dog Coalition?
As a former hardware engineer and a lover of all things hardware, the only country that isn't currently wasting its hardware talent is China. The rest of the world has been spoiled by the easy money in software.

Only China has produced a stable flow of hardware startups, and they have generally been very impressive.
I wonder this is also what doomed some, but not all, of meta's hardware efforts like its watch from 2023 (Portal was successful and a solid build but that was more pacakging than manufacturing and died for a different reason: Priorities).

In general though it seems where design/code<->hardware feedback loop needs to be very fast in some cases, it is a non trivial separation of concerns.

Unofficial Barron Trump memecoin rose to $460M market cap before crashing 95%
While I understand the point you're making, I am surprised by the examples you chose.

What Bush's speechwriter wrote, did not stop Bush from authorizing torture stations across the world, murdering hundreds of thousands of Muslim civilians in two failed military occupations, while weakening America vis-a-vis Russia and China, a confrontation that has dominated the past several years. Do not mistake public statements as any indication of actual policy.

As for McCain, his words were "No Ma'am, he is not an Arab, he is a decent family man", which I suppose is addressing misinformation with a decisiveness Republicans wouldn't dream of today.

I'm too lazy to search my comment history, but I wrote a comment on the original post about pg's essay that I did pretty much agree with what pg wrote, and so consequently I agree with most of what you wrote.

But that said, I definitely could not ignore the timing of pg's essay, and it felt plain gross to me. It felt like a lazy, convenient pile-on at that moment, even if pg's position had been largely consistent for a long time. I've seen all these tech leaders now lining up to point out the problems of the left (again, a lot of which I agree with), so where is the essay about the embarrassingly naked grift of the POTUS launching a ridiculous and useless meme coin just before his inauguration?

Also, there was nothing in that essay that I felt was particularly insightful or that I learned much from. It was, honestly, some bloviating pontification from someone who I now think holds his ideas in much higher regard than they deserve.

Yes, that is what I meant though in retrospect I see I didn’t make that entirely clear. What I meant was that language and vocalizations go way, way back than any ancestor remotely human-like.

Where you draw the line between mere “vocalizations” and “language” is a pretty open question, IMO.
Which would you choose to do real-time robotics with C++ on Linux/PREEMPT_RT with CUDA support?
1) Support Gentoo, Alpine and *BSD, especially with code and/or donations.

2) Support alternatives such as sysvinit, openrc, eudev with code and/or donations.

3) Support minimalist and console userspace software such as busybox, sysvinit, feh, fbpdf, support window managers that are still independent of *kit, support any platforms that big tech have no use of.

4) Encourage projects to stay independent of systemd, udev and, if possible, dbus too, although the dbus and udev battles are practically lost at this point.

5) Watch out for new dependencies being added to important projects such as xorg, gtk, qt, mesa, etc. and actively resist/oppose them.

6) Contribute to libraries that fake systemd/udev/dbus presence in a system and allow compiling dependent packages without actually having those packages installed.

7) Support mentainance of linux console! Fight to keep stuff such as scrollback buffer in the linux kernel.

8) If you really have lots of time, contribute to alternatives that sabotage big tech, such as ReactOS, OpenOffice, GIMP, etc.

And most importantly,

9) When you make a new website, support basic browsers without javascript (links, lynx, dillo, netsurf).

10) When you make a new app, make it available as a download outside of a OS shop/market app.
It's clear that the blogger is a wide-eyed newbie, who is enamored of Lisp and trying to attract any kind of attention and clicks to it. Obviously, it worked; he got on the front page of HN.

What if we tried for an intelligence singularity and ended up with a neurosis singularity instead.
An Interview with Jon Yu About YouTube and Making Semiconductors
To me, the issue boils down to pragmatism and utility.

It’s just human psychology; people tend not to change their minds when someone screams at them and otherwise disrespects them. If the goal is to move society in any particular direction, that requires some degree of successful communication, and throwing respect out the window directly counteracts the goal. If the goal is just to hold some moral high ground for the sake of it, that’s a pointless goal if it doesn’t lead to any underlying change.

Collectively, we don’t need to change the minds of obviously evil people, but we do need to influence the population that can vote them into or out of power. I just don’t see that ever happening if your outlook on life is this extreme:

> We have entered into an era where supporters of one party’s President deserve the assumption of being terrible people

I know many people have convinced themselves that this is true, but this ultimately boils down to the question: so what then is the goal? To push these people deeper into their bubbles?

At some point one has to ask how much of the problem is being directly created by this “they’re all terrible people so I won’t even talk to them” mindset.
Any idea how the executive orders will effect trans people renewing their passports?

A trans friend already changed the gender marker on his passport, and it's expiring in two years. He's deciding whether to renew it ASAP or wait. Any guess how likely it is to come back with the wrong gender marker, or get stuck in a bureaucratic mess?

Thank you so much for doing these! No worries if this question is outside your wheelhouse.
> But do we really need tampons in mens' bathrooms, really?

More to the point, do we really want men like the author in the women's bathrooms? Just because they desire to be women.

We all need to take a step towards respecting women's boundaries by collectively telling these men: No.
Regardless of the delay time, this just seems like an incredibly bad idea all around for something as important as source control.
