This isn't just this person's opion. bin Laden wrote about and spoke about it quite often, even before 9/11.
I don't think it's really about science. I mean if anything the science agrees with them. Sex is extremely bimodal (intersex is on the order of 1 in 1000):

https://isna.org/faq/frequency/

Also the use of gender as "it's like, how you feel, man" is very recent. When I was growing up (80s, 90s) it was just a synonym of "sex". If you look in old dictionaries that's what it says.

I looked it up and apparently the more recent definition came from feminists in the 70s (I guess it didn't catch on until later).

I think this is a massive over-correction (banning words is dumb) but they're not completely wrong.

I think the sane path lies in the middle: people shouldn't be forced to avoid "pregnant women" or "pregnant people". That includes being forced by social ostracism, which is the far left's method of choice.
The point was about banning both soviet and nazi symbols as equally evil
I think Musk was a bad example, I mean for example, people wants better health care, and some public person and/or politician proposes better prices in prescriptions drugs at a mid term, then that person who was elect does not only holds the power but also is obligated to follow that project.

It's literally to detach the person from the projects, of course times changes and the elected project can not be achieved by an X factor, tho we should have checks and balances in that too.

Today we follow X or Y politician/party but in this polarization we lost the focus that in the end a politician is elected to execute goal/project and not to hold power and then maybe do it.
> > AFAIK under EU law only blatant copies are an infringement

> Laws generally don't encode what is right but a compromise between the state's interests, lobbyists and the general population making enough ruckus if too unsatisfied.

of course, but I actually think that this is the correct moral stand. Patenting algorithms is like patenting thoughts.

> I don't know about you but when I wanna know how to use a particular function, I don't go looking through random GH repos to see how other people use it, I go to the docs.

I always look into sources. Usually I look into the code I want to call first. But this is probably also because I mainly use Java.

So if I read your AGPL code and implement something similar in another programming language after also reading other implementations of the algorithm, is that something I have to attribute you for? Isn't code just an executable documentation of an algorithm? Especially if the algorithm is well known, I don't see any injustice here - "Die Gedanken sind frei". If I copy your code via copy and paste, then this is an infringement, but just retelling a similar story should not be affected by copyright.
That depends on a goal. The goal of a martyr is not life.

I for one do not think that they are similar because an election is a popularity contest not a logical examination of facts, and voters are not required to sit through a thorough presentation of the facts in evidence, which means they tend to make less than ideal jurors.

Wow, the doom is off the charts here.

Just to inject some sanity into this discussion, these tariffs would not even bring the US to the level of some higher-tariff countries such as the notoriously impoverished United Kingdom or South Korea. 2022 tariff revenue was about 100B and the current Trump tariffs as of today stand around 90B/year depending who you ask, so this takes us to, very roughly, a weighted mean of 2.8%.

Well Keir Starmer famously said he would only work until 6pm on a Friday and the opposition were all over it accusing him of being a part time PM.

I also understand that the HN algo has a feature where flamewar-esque threads can trigger flagging of the entire article.

It doesn't but there's automatic downweighting which is not flagging. Flagging is something people do.
There are some positions that you don't want low IQ (low intelligence) people doing them.

If a group of 'X' people (based on any factor you like, be it race, gender, ideology, protected characteristics, etc) are statistically lower IQ, you would expect this to be reflected in selection over a large enough sample.

Equally, I would expect that when you're fighting for people who are in high demand, that the wage reflects it. Merit is a "positive discrimination" for people who do the job better.
I see the forbidden terms include "gender" and google scholar returns 5.3 million results with that. It's all a bit silly. Next they'll ban European languages for being gendered.
> Also, your use of need is odd as well, and seem to have convinced yourself that the world is wrong and only you’re right. If it needed, the creators would have made it that way

It's called having personal experiences and an opinion. You should try them sometime. It's almost as if appropriate tempo was in the "eye" of the "viewer", and so I was very clearly not suggesting my needs and essentials are universal objective truths in the first place. Getting extremely tired of having to insert "I think", "I believe", "in my opinion" to signal subjectivity in what - I think - are ostensibly subjective contexts, just so that I can avoid subsequent bikeshedding like this.

> You’re now applying to something else, so that’s a bit of goal post moving.

This will be crazy I know, but instead of this delightfully malice-assuming explanation, I simply missed the words where they said "music practice". Didn't help that "timestretch for music practice" is not a feature of YouTube, only timestretch is (as part of the playback rate adjustment feature), so when you were (according to my personal impression of the wording of your previous comment) generally addressing the feature, I replied in kind.

If I was being extra prickly, I'd accuse you of intentionally writing in a way so that you could accuse me of strawmanning you later (goalpost moving is a very loose fit here) for an easy dunk, but of course as someone who reaches for fallacies immediately, you wouldn't do that, right?

This is what distrust sown between people, as well as just plain not being able to know your discussion partner looks like. It's been increasingly frustrating me, and it looks like it's having an effect on you too.
You are spot on.

Btw, the Burrows-Wheeler transform is often explained as taking the last column.

I find it easier to understand why it works if you think of BWT as sorting all rotations of your string by from their _second_ character onwards, and then writing down all the first characters.
It seems quite logical to me as well. An LLM is not a logical computing system but it has the knowledge on how to do a multiplication
No one is interested in eliminating strict gender roles. What people want to do is to exclusively be the one to define and enforce them according to their own believes and views.

Affirmative action has a long history of only being applied when the benefiting demographic is the intended benefiting demographic. The same rules apply to freedom of religion, in that only officially approved religious beliefs are allowed to benefit from freedom of religion. The definition of an approved religion get defined by those creating and enforcing the rule, which changes based on who is in power.

Elemental distribution in the universe is also extremely bimodal .. moreso even than the exceptions to the reproductive male or reproductive female buckets.

Everything in the universe is either Hydrogen or Helium .. save for a tiny tiny cluster of exceptions known (to astronomers) as "metals" and as "every other damn element including carbon and oxygen" to the aquatic apes.

I did acknowledge that.

My point was more if you went into a store to buy some cereal and you had two options: "Cornflakes" and "Cornflakes 2 - they're better!" but you noticed that while both packets had standard legal nonsense on them but Cornflakes 2 had "This cereal almost certainly does not contain broken glass" as well, personally I think human nature would make me go with the packet that didn't bring up broken glass in the first place - even if both of them have the exact same chance of containing it

Tensor diagrams are standard, but some notation is missing. My goal was to be able to handle the entire Matrix Cookbook.

For this I needed a good notation for functions applied to specific dimensions and broadcasting over the rest. Like softmax in a transformer.

The function chapter is still under development in the book though. So if you have any good references for how it's been done graphically in the past, that I might have missed, feel free to share them.

> but still uncertain about the substance.

Honestly, I'm really enjoying that uncertainty and I couldn't image how entertaining it'd be. It certainly has a special place in this current "Zeitgeist" where video games are played by various generations and people calling each other "NPC"s as insult. There's this massive scale of contemporary enterprises, they all would like to retain that image of being young and full of empathy, while also standing above the law. Have you ever talked to some superior at a company and left with this empty feeling that made you recognize all of this unwillingness to change? Severence just hits that spot and frames it nicely into humor, yet still doesn't laugh about it. I question a bit the addition of the latest department in episode 3 and just hope they can stick the landing with such decisions.

I definitely see Twin Peaks in the same realm.

And who says they are willing to hold fair elections next time? They are not going to conceed power voluntarily, especially not now since they see what they can get away with and that means if you let them, they will "win", just like the decades of "wins" in other authoritarian states.

Highly recommend this note by Jordan Taylor.
Hardware also has UB, but what happens is still dictated by the circuitry. The relevant circuitry is both complicated enough and not useful enough for the CPU designer to specify it.

Often they use the word "unpredictable" instead. The behavior is perfectly predictable by an omniscient silicon demon, but you may not be able to predict it.

The effect that speculative execution has on cache state turned out to be unpredictable, so we have all the different Spectre vulnerabilities.

Hardware unpredictability doesn't overlap much with language UB, anyway. It's unlikely that something not defined by the language is also not defined by th hardware. It's much more likely that the compiler's source code fully defines the behaviour.
It's live version of Micro Machines! Nice work
I also came up with an alternative implementation: https://gist.github.com/camel-cdr/d16fd2be1fd7b71622649e6bc7...

The idea is based on the Ziggurat Method. You overlap the circle with n boxes that each encapsulate the same amount of area of the underlying circle, select a random box, and then do rejection.

With 128 boxes, this reduces the average number of additional iterations from 27% to 0.7%, which should massively reduce the number of branch miss predictions.

It ended up about 2x faster the simple rejection method.

I haven't applied this to spheres yet, but that should also be possible.
Similar to wanting to start a blog, but instead of writing a post, spending significant effort building the platform. First post becomes ‘how I built my blog’.

Best Tech Stack for static (Bootstrap) website in 2025
I'm backend developer and have to build a frontend for my project.
Can write simple JS, but would avoid Big Javascript Frameworks ))

This should be an almost static site:

- some pages will contain a kind of custom search component:
an input field with 10-12 checkboxes/dropdowns containing HTML+JS+CSS. already have a working prototype.

- other pages like About/Contact/FAQ/Help - completely static, pure Bootstrap HTML/CSS (and minimal JS)

Question1: suggest a TEMPLATE ENGINE.
Something similar to Jekyll would be great (used Jekyll in the past - the template system is OK, but not the Ruby parts of it). Something that has good integration with Bootstrap and Liquid templates

Question2: suggest a JAVASCRIPT BUNDLER.
Should have good integration with template engine and Bootstrap.
Probably not Webpack: I'm afraid of those huge config files.
Tried Parcel a bit: it is not bug-free, the experience was not smooth.
Don't know about Vite.

Question3: what is known about usage of BOOTSTRAP (+TEMPLATE ENGINE) WITH AI CODE EDITORS ? (Cursor, Windsurf or something else)
I've heard stories of people generating big chunks of applications with these things.
I think it should work well with Bootstrap HTML, but I don't know how it would work with the template engine.
I am wondering what this statement actually means:

> The reverse predicate from this section should not be used in practice - most Prolog implementations actually provide a built-in version which is a lot more performant than our implementation.

I think it can be read as: If you care about speed do not use Prolog, instead write a "built-in" solution.
And it’s only one “t” away from “misery” ;-)
Every time I hear about anything related to Effective Altruism, it's because people who believe this stuff have done crimes sufficient to make it in to the news.

Are there other contexts they show up where they are not doing crimes, or really non-normative things?
I'm hoping the Tensor Cookbook can become as engaging to read for others as Jordan Taylor's paper was to me. If you have any thoughts on where I lose people, please share!
Seems to redirect to Google for me.
With modern SIMD the rejection method is likely faster, because you can do it branchless with a compressed store.
Maybe I'm missing some context, but I'm under impression that nobody here (upthread from this comment) is advocating, representing or has anything to do whatsoever with murder cults. Discounting Christianity or US tax residency as a background levels of deathcultism of course.

There is however a living breathing person sharing their personal experiences, to which a polite response is not the one you see above (pushing their agenda, which contributes to those negative experiences).

I udnerstand that for the demographics represented here it's sometimes difficult to tell an abstract concept from a living person, thus the explicit call to have some fucking shame for a second.

This is a good question. According to some the growth is exponential. Others think ChatGPT is basically still the same as it was at the end of 2022, minor differences aside. Why are the perspectives so different?
They had access only to just one tiny bit of the entire written words of the worlds. Not all books are available in electronic formats. You can see from the visualization in the article that we don’t even have the titles for a lot of published books with ISBN. And even so, books with ISBN comprise only a fraction of the entire ever written books. Not too mention books in various (minor) languages of the worlds.
ChatGPT launched with GPT-3.5. We're now at o1 and o3-mini and DeepSeek-R1, but even in the last year with GPT-4 and GPT-4o, it became better than almost everything involving text than average human. It writes better than average person, faster and cheaper. It parses unstructured data better than average person. There's large number of everyday tasks for which it's perfectly reasonable today to just throw them at ChatGPT. That's all last 1 to 1.5 years.
I appreciate the dismissal, but I stand by what I said.

I used to think 'precedence was just for removing ambiguity', so I didn't pay attention to it.

Then I discovered it was the key to structuring grammars to avoid left recursion, and everything changed for me.

I've used it successfully in the past and I'll do so in the future.
And if that’s your ultimate point, I’m not going to disagree with you.

But I still think several things you said on the way here were put in a rather imprecise and conflationary way.

I wonder how many people there are, that don't have these weaknesses.

And who are therefore forced to hear terrible audio because the compression method only considers the majority.
There's so much talk about the advancements in AI/LLMs, yet for me ChatGPT as of this date is basically just a faster search engine without cookie banners, clickbait and ads. It hallucinates a lot and it can keep very limited context. Why is there so much promise about future progress but so little actual progress?
But it's true. This doesn't affect winning founders on here.
Working fine for me. Article is from 2012, however.
You are assuming you are still living in a country where laws are upheld. You aren't anymore. So if you do a thing that your betters don't like, they will stop it, legal or not. You assume a democracy, but you are in an authoritarian society.

Your only chance is to have significant support by the population and good luck with that when all the popular social media platforms are on their side. The US is fucked if the population doesn't unite against that quickly.

And given the self-centered individualism that is so predominant nowadays I say that isn't going to happen.
If this process can be used on aerospace grade aluminum lithium alloys, they can print isogrids onto any surface without throwing away 50% of the material.
Every tit for that is terrible I think. Whether funny or not, I think recognising the pattern and admitting "the other side" also was suppressed (wchichever way is the other side) would be the first step to deescalation.

Otherwise, right now DEI went through denial and is in anger.
I see, I'd like to give it a try then. I'll try adding some precedence here. I don't know how, though.

Nobody is literally Hitler because the man is for sure dead.
