I'm going to quote the paragraph you're responding to so that those just reading the comments can see what it actually says:

> The marshmallow test also doesn’t account for cultural differences. In some cultures, waiting is baked into daily life. Think about Japan, where kids are often taught to wait quietly for meals or gifts. Compare that to the US, where instant gratification is practically a way of life. These cultural norms shape how kids approach situations like the marshmallow test. It’s not just about personality; it’s about the world they live in.

That's it. That's the entire quote about the effect of culture.

I see no mention of race or location—I see an argument that "the world they live in" affects children's ability to wait, and that culture is an important aspect of the world that kids live in.

Given that this is the actual text you're responding to, I'm not actually sure you disagree with them, because you go on to point out that smartphones are a dangerous component of modern culture.

this looks like the kind of material i'm looking for.

I'll take a closer look to the material, which is already good.

It's sad that there does not seem to be anything past "DBA1" (that is, no DBA2 or DBA3).
I'm not sure what you mean. It's your machine that calculates the hashes when it encounters the code.

If you bulld the directed graph made by the symlinks in the nix store, and walk it backwards, a sha256 of the source files is what you'll find, both in the form of a nix store path and possibly in a derivation that relies on a remote resource but provides a hash of that resource so we can know it's unchanged when downloaded later.

The missing piece is that they're not gossipped between users. So if I find some code in a dark alley somewhere and it has a nix flake to make building it easy, I've got no way to take the hashes and determine who else has experience with the same code and can help me decide if it's trustworthy.
I hadn't heard of it before. Thanks!
With JJ you can even override the ref spec of what should be considered a mutable commit. Feel free to set it to all commits and JJ will not allow you to mutate anything unless you pass the --ignore-mutable flag.

For example, I've configured it for me to make any commit by anyone else mutable regardless of branch:

[revset-aliases]
# To always consider changes by others immutable:
"immutable_heads()" = "builtin_immutable_heads() | (trunk().. & ~mine())"
Good to hear. What are you doing to demolish the visa regime that actually doesn't allow all that? Do you have an ETA for the day when anybody who enters USA will be able to seek employment or start a company or do whatever they want in their pursuit of happiness?

I was worried that you are advocating for work visas, permits, green cards ect, like a silly EU country would do.
I’ve long held that Postgres is more powerful than MySQL in terms of flexibility and options, but you really ought to have thoroughly read and understood the manual to run it in prod. In comparison, MySQL does a fantastic job out of the box (modulo buffer pool sizing and sync_array_size, and tbf Postgres is equally bad at the former, and the latter doesn’t matter until larger scale), but is somewhat limited in what you can do with it (emphasis on somewhat – it’s still quite adequate for nearly anyone).

That’s why I’m forever salty that all of the tech influencers and bloggers hyped up Postgres so much. Yes, it’s a great RDBMS, but the frontend devs eagerly jumping into it haven’t the slightest clue what they’re getting themselves into.
Thank you for that. You quoted the author of the phrase “Banality of Evil”:

Arendt's book introduced the expression and concept of the banality of evil.[15] Her thesis is that Eichmann was actually not a fanatic or a sociopath, but instead an average and mundane person who relied on clichéd defenses rather than thinking for himself,[16] was motivated by professional promotion rather than ideology, and believed in success which he considered the chief standard of "good society".[17] Banality, in this sense, does not mean that Eichmann's actions were in any way ordinary, but that his actions were motivated by a sort of complacency which was wholly unexceptional.
They generally aren't going to give them to everyone. They will give them to everyone within a certain group, such as age 30+ since the under 30 group is very low risk (unless family history, etc). Similar to how they don't test most kids and younger people for cholesterol - it's just not a significant problem for that age group.

Problematic people are still people, and pretending otherwise in order to feel better about needing them out of society is maybe not a great idea.
I think management is putting too much hope into this, any negative outcome from replacing a human with AI might result in liabilities surpassing the savings. Air Canada's chatbot was decided just a year ago and I'm sure the hallucinating AI chatbot, from development to legal fees, cost the airline more money than they saved in their call-center.

The entire point of clinical depression is that it's not environmental, it's intrinsic. Yes, this means it won't change - that's why antidepressants exist. It's why you should see a therapist for it, and should stop listening to people implying you can just eat different or whatever. This knowledge sucks, but you trying to keep that a secret and shaming someone into silence isn't helping.
It is not on paper. Couple of ms ( 4ms ) is real, except it is not normal 5G but specific superset / version of 5G.

Your network needs to be End to End running on 5G-A ( 3GPP Rel 18 ) with full SA ( Stand Alone ) using NR ( New Radio ) only. Right now AFAIK only Mobile networks in China has managed to run that. ( Along with turning on VoNR ) Most other network are still behind in deployment and switching.
I think U.S.-centric readers may misunderstand Mazda. When I was in Singapore, I saw one example of them being quite popular abroad. In the U.S., they seem to be more of an enthusiast / novelty brand.

Last January, I threw Car & Driver stats for 2023 and 2022 best-selling models (from U.S. sales) in a spreadsheet. Mazda was the #12 OEM here, just below Hyundai. (Note this is only based on top 25 models.)

EDIT: Updated to add 2024 top 25.

In 2024, Mazda's CX-5 dropped off the top 25 best-selling, removing it from my spreadsheet.

03. Honda 807,519 11.8%

07. Nissan 398,383 5.8%

In 2023 Mazda increased their volume very slightly, while Nissan lost share, and Honda increased their share.

2023

03. Honda 759,785 11.1%

10. Nissan 271,458 4.0%

12. Mazda 153,808 2.3%

2022

04. Honda 526,699 8.6%

08. Nissan 326,435 5.3%

12. Mazda 151,594 2.5%

There is not. See the whole Taiwan thing.
I believe the parable makes sure that we see the prodigal son as a very bad person. They didn't have VCs and creepy CEOs back in the days when it was written, so we'd have to extrapolate from what they knew unto the present, but I'm convinced that the author wanted us to think that until the prodigal son returned to his father he was beyond redemption.

So, it's not an attempt to deny that Holmes has done evil things. And, in fact, from the article it looks like she's unrepentant... but, my answer was literally to the question as asked. Also, admittedly, you don't have to subscribe to the Christian moral codex, and may reject the notion of every human having dignity as their inalienable right. But that would require a sophisticated and substantial argument.
I understand the criticism, Trump has essentially given away some core issues before negotiation starts, usually not what you want to do. However, a more favorable interpretation is that all knew these things were not really on the table, and it might help to build trust with Putin. My feeling is that it is hard to tell how this will play out for now..

I dont think the title is hiding its intend
Race is not mentioned in the article. Ironically, you are doing the very thing, here, which you claim spoils it.

The mention of culture is not out of place in the article, as the marshmallow test (which features quite prominently in it, including in its actual title) does have different outcomes in different cultures, and, in addition, it is hardly controversial to suppose that the way children are brought up is an important factor in establishing and maintaining a culture's cohesion.
Don't dirty the good name of k-mart's bluelight internet by lumping it in with this nonsense
AI development is not led by hackers in their garages, but by multi-billion corporations with no incentives other than profit and no care other than their shareholders. The only way to control their negative outcomes in this system is regulation.

If you explained to that hacker that govs and corps would leverage that same technology to spy on everyone and control their lives because line must go up, they might understand better than anyone else why this needs to be sabotaged early in the process.
Very interesting use of SSS. What are some practical use cases for this?

It thought you were going to explain how "woke" is a bad thing, and how Japanese were counter progressive stuff.

Instead, you give me two links to the current fascist White House propaganda - which makes me wonder if for you, woke is the exact opposite of "christian"?

And a link about a video game which is... related how to woke/progress or conservative/fascism?

> The hardest part for parents today seems to be putting their phone down.

> And I tell you, I wish I never had a smartphone at all.

Being self-aware of phone use is 80% of the battle.

I also read a lot on my phone. Most of my screen time is in the books app.

Early on I decided to leave the phone on the charger in the mornings and evenings before the kids are in bed. Problem solved.

The biggest trap I see in my circle is the mental gymnastics of blaming everyone else for their own excessive phone use. It becomes easier to overuse a phone when they blame the algorithm or the companies for “making” them use the phone more than they want. Some people read stories about apps being made to be addictive and feel relieved because it offloads responsibility away from their decision making.

In the addiction treatment world it’s acknowledged that if someone can’t control their own behavior then they need even more controls and accountability, not to cede all responsibility for their actions to the addictive thing they’re drawn to. That usually means making decisions to shape their environment to keep them away from addictive behaviors, but for some reason many people see headlines about “the algorithm” and addictive apps and decide it’s futile to resist.

Making the decision to leave my phone on the charger during kid time was one of the higher ROI decisions I’ve made in my life. I used a smart watch to get any urgent notifications if I really needed them.
That was due to the loss of the war and the followup economic devastation brought by the reparation payments that caused a lot of issues in the economy at large, followed by the 1918 flu pandemic that also caused serious issues (and with 25M dead, even more death than WW1 itself!).

One might be tempted to again draw parallels to today's situation in the US, with the US having lost the war in Afghanistan as well as everyone having suffered through years of Covid.

I don't think there as many "Trump supporters" as one might think. His plan to defacto take ownership of Gaza or to relocate Gazans is overwhelmingly negatively received. So that's pretty clear that people are forming views based on actions, rather than a cult of personality or party. And on that, I do support these actions - but in both directions oddly. From an earlier post in this thread somebody linked to some examples of what's being taken down. Here [1] is one of the CDC pages that's been removed.

It has the CDC doing everything from encouraging schools to push DEI hard, to getting kids to create student-run clubs based around their sexuality. I think that's quite inappropriate, but that's also one of the many reasons I think this needs to be preserved. We somehow went from good common sense ideas like equality of opportunity and allowing same sex couples the same rights under marriage, to gradually shifting into equality of outcome or, as per this page, having kids run clubs in school about sexuality, at the CDC's beckoning no less?

It's all just quite odd. I think people in the future won't believe this stuff was happening to this degree, and so I think it's extremely important to preserve it, and to try to learn from it all. At worst it can simply serve as a very important time capsule. It'd be nice if, at some point, societies could stop bouncing between extremes (or even worse - staying at one end or the other) and maintain a more stable center.

I think that some of the issue may be your framing. Even if Trump is just enforcing his executive orders, it is possible that the orders themselves are anti-democratic.

If Trump's executive orders were simply changes in policy then they might still be bad but they wouldn't necessarily be a threat to democracy. The issue arises in that his executive orders go beyond that to attempt to attack worldviews that he doesn't like. "Gender non-conforming people cannot use a given bathroom" is a policy. "There are only two genders" is a worldview. Even though I disagree with both of them, the second is a much more anti-democratic.

> Technical competence is generally very hard to judge

At an end-user level it always was easy to judge that Honda was at the top for technical competence. The same it true for judging the bottom rung. You can judge by favoring high quality products, or by disfavoring businesses that try to sell you on sizzle and "fun". It's all the same.

Condé Nast, McClatchy and Other Publishers Accuse Cohere of Copyright Violations
Some options that pop up frequently on HN: Vultr, DigitalOcean, OVH and Hetzner Cloud, all have cheap VPSes, $4-$5 per month for the cheapest I think. And usually if it's an app for just you/your small family, you can get away hosting multiple apps per VPS without suffering atrocious performance (depends on the apps/usage obviously).

The trick (and somewhat the drawback in many's eyes) is to rent a VPS (or dedicated/bare metal) instead of a "App hosting service" (what Render is). You'd need to know some basics about infrastructure and networking, but not anything too advanced and that's stuff will be useful regardless too, so not too easy to rationalize away :)

Wrong. I lost at least a decade of really great years to this belief. It's bullshit. I've made huge strides in my "clinical" depression despite my environment not markedly improving. I did, however, improve myself enough to recognize and stop maladaptive behaviors.

It's hard as hell to change yourself, but you're not immutable.

> A third party that is paid by the first party is not much different from a first party.

This is true from a technical trust perspective, but less true from a legal liability perspective.

If company A sells a product to users with the promise “it will be delivered by company B and we have no knowledge of what you do with it”, and then it turns out there the two companies had an agreement to share data and void that promise, company A is in for a world of hurt when the truth comes out.

Given the small number of people who are aware of and care about this stuff, it would be so much less expensive and less risky to just skip the lies in the first place.

California's Problem Now Isn't Fire–It's Rain
I’m not criticising the kids, I’m criticising the conclusions of the experiment. I certainly wouldn’t have been able to explain my reasoning this clearly or perhaps even consciously understood why I had made that choice, but that doesn’t mean I wouldn’t have been able to intuitively make that tradeoff. Which is precisely the point of the article: kids subconsciously performing an action based on psychological and environmental factors not fully within their grasp.

Within the parameters of your analogy, my point is closer to scoffing at the experimenters for making sweeping conclusions based on kids being able to find a single item on Dora the Explorer. Sure, maybe the kids who failed to find it had a learning disability, or maybe they weren’t that stimulated by being forced to watch a show they disliked when they could just go play something else. Even with the conclusions having been drawn years later, where the finders performed better academically, that could still indicate the non-finders were simply uninterested in the way most schools work by forcing you to be there and listen to certain subjects at certain times. Perhaps they would’ve thrived in a freer environment where they had greater freedom to pick the subjects for each day.
