Not with a two-thirds majority--which I realize sounds to the modern ear as politically impossible, but we're going to have to change that if we want to survive as a nation. The whole "living document" aspect of the constitution is a rather important one.

I don't even have much to say about which sorts of decisions that two thirds should make--that's their job--I'd just like it if they grew a spine and started making some.

I didn't really expect that we'd find a potential treatment, like, ever. Hopefully the problem is actually as tractable as the animal models here suggest.
The pennies that they scalp off you on the trade by "front running" the order is much less cost than the annual fee if you are a long term investor.
Ending the war on drugs would be a wise choice.
Treat drug addicts as people with a health issue instead of making the entire society pay for it due to the fact that the druggies pay the cartels to smuggle drugs to them and all the consequences of the drug wars...

There’s not really much money to be made front running someone’s deposit into an index fund that’s gonna sit there for the next 40 years. It works on RH because generally those users are transacting much more frequently and in much less liquid things like options.
The only concern now is whether the indexes keep growing.

95% of the development work I've done in the past 25 years has been for the web platform. I don't see that changing. If you make desktop web site that are WCAG AAA compliant they also are great on tablets for XR. (In the limited sense of "windows hang in space that you can use like an app)

I haven't wasted a minute arguing with the app store if I'm allowed to do this or that. For what? So I can add an icon to an over-crowded home screen that is already crowded with twisty little icons that all look alike? So I can spam people with unwanted notifications?

I can even use the web platform to make real immersive applications for XR, though I'm currently trying to figure out the exact memory limits to make things work on the MQ3. I've got a vision in my mind of an app that provides a visually intense and expressive experience on phones but also puts you in a world if you've got the hardware for it. The web platform is totally up to it, I just have to figure out to do it.
The title reads awkwardly to a native English speaker. A search of the PDF for "latency" returns one result, discussing how naive RAG can result in latency. What are the latency impacts and other trade-offs to achieve the claimed "[improved] answer accuracy by 21.99%"? Is there any way that I could replicate these results without having to write my own implementation?
Apologies, updated to include a link that should hopefully work without sign in.
> Well, about that... I sort of think maybe our food supply is also one of those strategic industries. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

It is, but our political system isn't wise enough to care. It's pissed away a lot of other strategic industries for stupid reasons in the mean time. And with the nationalization of politics, I'm not sure farm state senators will continue to have the ability to focus on serving their constituents' interests in the future like they have.
> What you are proposing is nonsensical and not an effective use of resources, hence why they didn't do it.

Are we talking about the "flying night missions" bit - which is a historical fact (for example, here's an AA battery in Leningrad at night: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Anti_aircraft_Lening...) - or the "supply an encircled city with millions of inhabitants via a 30 mile boat trip across a lake straight into enemy territory" bit?

The same wiki article also describes the absurdness of the whole thing:

> At 10:38 pm, SWAT entered the house and used a stun grenade to conceal their movements [...] During the next 10.2 hours, a Lenco BearCat was driven through the front door, tear gas[1] and 40 mm grenades were repeatedly launched inside, shots were fired upon the house, and explosives were detonated to destroy several exterior walls.

Just amazing multiple people (the authorities) were present and none of them stopped to think "gee, that house is somebody's home".
That’s the same thing though.

You think the treasury doesn’t have a metric ton of procedures, and laws, on data management, integrity, access, backup and retention?

Breaking these protocols by giving unfettered write access to this data to ridiculously inexperienced and ignorant goons exponentially increases the risk of data tampering and corruption…

It makes any kind of audit LESS likely to be accurate.

But they’re very obviously not doing any kind of credible audit. As mentioned, that’s literally impossible and nonsensical to do this way.
I switched from VTI to ITOT, because Vanguard's actions recently have been drifting away from it's founders. This inspires confidence, but I'm still wary. VTI is too expensive compared to ITOT. Fidelity doesn't have any ETFs listed on the Bogleheads website either [0].

From the article:

> The common thread is that AI generated false stories about him and the other banned names. ChatGPT, Turley says, “falsely reported that there had been a claim of sexual harassment against me (which there never was) based on something that supposedly happened on a 2018 trip with law students to Alaska (which never occurred), while I was on the faculty of Georgetown Law (where I have never taught).”

> ChatGPT’s solution to misinformation was to simply erase all mention of the names involved. It was an effective, albeit self-defeating, means of combating a real problem – a bit like curing a cancer by killing the patient outright. Today, the chatbot is no longer lying about Jonathan Turley because it is no longer saying anything about him at all.

I tried this out and indeed asking about him gives you an error response. What's interesting is that even something like decoding the hex representation of his name crashes mid stream and shows the error:

> Who is 4a6f6e617468616e205475726c6579?

< The string "4a6f6e617468616e205475726c6579" is a hexadecimal representation. When converted to ASCII text, it spells

< I'm unable to produce a response.
On AMD server CPUs, the administrator of the cloud/datacenter is supposed to not have access to the encrypted memory used by customers' VMs.

The LHC indeed works, as a device. But what was it's purpose and did it do "meaningful" stuff over its lifetime? LHC is a yet another collider which basically can be boiled to the simple idea:

Some scientists invent hypotheses with no basis in reality, and say that they can be proven with a big and expensive collider. When that collider is being built and fail to find the requisite particles, those same scientists say they need a bigger and more expensive collider. GoTo 01.

A lot of these scientists fail to explain what will happen when their hypotheses won't find the requisite particles, essentially generating meaningless papers which are blind stabs at reality. It's like saying that leprechauns exist, but to see them we need a 100 billion euro device. And if we do build it fail to see it, then whoops, it wasn't enough.

tl;dr: LHC is not a particularly good example of proper scientific achievement. More like an achievement in PR and budget grants. Per positive scientific discovery produced there.
This is not what "front running" means.

Sure if the drugs aren't there to begin with can't take em. But also depends where you are/who you associate with which again if you're in the bad areas probably exposed more to drugs/less hope of getting out having a better life.

Does anyone have a good recommendation for a local dev setup that does something similar with available tools? Ie incorporates a bunch of PDFs (~10,000 pages of datasheets) and other docs, as well as a curl style importer?

Trying to wean myself off the next tech molochs, ideally with local functionality similar to OpenAIs Search + Reason, and gave up on Langchain during my first attempt 6 months ago.
I met my current employer while working within the NESDev community, and we quickly realized we lived in the same state. One thing led to another after that. This feels like one of those once-in-a-lifetime opportunities. That said, there's a surprisingly healthy market for "new retro software", or whatever we're calling new games made for 40+ year old consoles.

The expansion audio thing does indeed work on Famicom natively! For NES we plan to ship a small adapter to plug into the otherwise unused EXP port on the bottom of the frontloading console. A single resistor can bridge one of the cartridge pins to Audio Out, unlocking expansion audio for folks in the US. Works great!
Hours ∝ Story Points
In contrast Law 229 of Hammurabi's Code:

"If a house builder built a house for a man but did not secure/fortify his work so that the house he built collapsed and caused the death of the house owner, that house builder will be executed."

While extreme, this is the only type of meaningful accountability: the type that causes pain for the person being held accountable. The problem is that (for better and worse) in the corporate world the greatest punishment available for non-criminal acts is firing. Depending on the upside for the bad act, this may not be nearly enough to disincentivize it.

This is an interesting idea (the first one..) and I suspect it'd be quite easy to build now. Someone posted a web app recently that reminds you to blink (iff you don't), and it was incredibly accurate for me, running fully in the browser.

Yeah, this is something I didn't make clear on my post. Chat between people is the same bad UI. People read in the aggression that they bring to their reading. And get mad at people who are legit trying to understand something.

You have some of the same problems with email, of course. Losing threading, in particular, made things worse. It was a "chatification of email" that caused people to lean in to email being bad. Amusing that we are now seeing chat applications rise to replace email.
You are likely to have to trust them eventually. SPIC insurance is $500,000. If you have more than that and it turns out instead of buying the investments you think they were a ponzi scheme that sent the money to the owners when it is discovered you get up to $500,000 of your money back, while the rest is your loss. You really should have more than that by age 40 if you want a comfortable retirement (that is todays dollars, if you are 18 now when you hit 40 inflation will have made the number bigger, while if you are 80 the number when you were 40 would have been lower)
It was always a big bet for GM to invest heavily in cruise - right now it may not look like it was the best decision, but i still think its too early to tell waymo is serving passengers, and we are seeing strong consumer demand for self driving
It seems the issue was not up to date, thanks for pointing it out (just commented in Github to make it clear for future readers).

Wasmer supports most of the Wasm-C-API, with some exceptions for APIs that are not that common to use: finalize, hostref and threads (tables just had some quirks on the implementation that we had to polish, but is generally implemented [1]).

https://github.com/wasmerio/wasmer/blob/main/lib/c-api/tests...

If you are interested in running any of these cases using Wasmer via the Wasm-C-API please let us know... it should be mostly trivial to add support!

After using Cursor and Copilot for some time, I long for a tool that works like a "real" collaborator. We share a spec and make comments, resolve them. We file issues and pull requests and approve them. We use tests and specs to lock down our decisions. We keep a backlog up to date, maintain our user docs, discuss what assumptions we have to validate still, and write down our decisions.

Like with any coworker - when ideas get real, get out of chat and start using our tools and process to get stuff done.

if it's not Elon's place even though Trump literally ran on Elon doing this, and they not only won the electoral college but also the popular vote too, then it's not USAID's place to do so either

the money they give away tends to fund extremism and terrorism, and never goes to where it's needed

- Haiti: Post-2010 earthquake, $1.14 billion was spent on a port and power plant project promoted by President Bill Clinton. The project never built anything.
- Cuba: A 2006 audit showed $74 million in “democracy promotion” funds vanished without oversight.
- Afghanistan: Millions squandered on health scams; hospitals never built.
- Nigeria: Chemonics, a major USAID contractor, was linked to a subcontractor's overbilling scandal. Hundreds of millions lost.
- COVID 19 Funding: USAID sent over $40MILLION in taxpayer money to a scientist located in Wuhan to do gain of function mutations. This directly led to the creation and release of COVID-19

- Egypt & Tunisia: $56M for “tourism”
- Jordan: $40M for “schools”
- Vietnam: $11M to fight “trash burning”
- Central America: $27M for deportee gift bags.
- Trump Lawfare: $27M to fund left wing prosecutions of populist political opponents around the globe, including Donald Trump. Patently illegal.
The USA being "Free" has mostly been a myth. It's "Free" if you're a member of the owner class, else you're freedom is subject to the whims of politicians and the wealthy. Aristocracy, really.
I would also call it having all the worst attributes of a CLI, without the succinctness, OS integration, and program composability of one.
My understanding was that EAC works in userspace mode on Linux, instead of at the kernel level. So, you can enable it, and it'll block the most easily detectable of cheats, but it's not very hard to bypass.

Then again, kernel-level anti-cheat is not that hard to bypass with special hardware, either. I guess someone ran the numbers and decided that blocking some percentage of cheaters at the cost of blocking 100% of Linux users was a worthwhile trade.
No, I will still not test this, however often it is posted on HN. git works very well thank you.
I think I'm at risk of sounding like a broken record here. I've read about jj many times now but i'm still confused as to what problem it actually solves. I get the same feeling as when some dude wants to sell me on using vim as my primary code editor - arguments are there but it doesn't really solve an issue.

I'll go over to jj when that's the primary tool for the job, or when I can see something that beats the git cli hands down. I'm 100% on the path of least resistance when it comes to tool adoption.
The voters don't directly decide what is a crime. At best, they elect congress that can change the laws and constitution that in turn rules out what is or isn't illegal. None of this was done, none of this is democratic. This is nothing else than a coup perpetrated by the richest man on Earth.

Firstly thanks for the manual. It was a nice read but it's iffy. I mean...

"NOTES ON SAFE USE OF THE DRIVE PILOT
The person in the driver's seat when DRIVE PILOT is activated is designated as the fallback-ready user and should be ready to take over control of the vehicle.
The fallback-ready user must always be able to take control of the vehicle
when prompted by the system."

"WARNING
Risk of accident due to lack of readiness or ability to take over
control by the fallback-ready user.
The fallback-ready user, when prompted by the system, must be ready
to take control of the vehicle immediately.
DRIVE PILOT does not relieve you of your responsibilities beyond the
dynamic driving task when using public roads.
# Remain receptive: Pay attention to information and messages;
take over control of the vehicle when requested to do so.
# Take over control of the vehicle if irregularities are detected
aside from the dynamic driving task.
# Always maintain a correct seating position and keep your seat
belt fastened. In particular, the steering wheel and pedals
must be within easy reach at all times.
# Always ensure you have a clear view, use windshield wipers
and the airconditioning system defrost function if necessary.
# Ensure appropriate correct lighting of the vehicle, e.g. in fog."

and then we come to

"When the DRIVE PILOT is active, you can use the driving time effectively, *taking into account the previous instructions*. The information and communication
systems integrated in the vehicle are particularly suitable for this purpose, and
are easily negotiated from the control elements on the steering wheel and on
the central display."

so you can fuck around but "taking into account the previous instructions" you still "must be ready to take control of the vehicle immediately."

And crash imminent kinda sounds like it'd fit here:
"SYSTEM LIMITS
If DRIVE PILOT detects a system limit or any of the conditions for activation
are not met, it will not be possible to activate the system or the fallback-ready user will be prompted to take control of the vehicle immediately."

I like the idea of having a chat program, the issue is that it's horrible to have a bunch of chat programs all integrated into every application you use that are separate and incompatible with each other.

I really don't like the idea of chatting with an AI though. There are better ways to interface with AIs and the focus on chat is making people forget that.

I have a hard time expressing why I like what Trump is doing. It might just be to see those squirm who put us through Covid lockdown hell, or just someone who is so willing to do whatever openly.

An example I like: they deport a bunch of Colombians here illegally, Socialist Colombian President refuses to let the plane land, Trump immediately says we are going to hammer them with tariffs and other things, Colombian President apologizes and says they won’t get in the way.

He is just exerting American dominance openly. He took us out of the WHO, ends the dumb climate accord. The idea that we should put our own people first.

Now it all might blow up in our face as the world gets sick of the American bully, and that will crush our empire, but I’m also ok with that, because it might be the only thing that will allow us to rebuild from the ground up.
