i'd really like a way to email a youtube channel owner though. even if sits in a youtube inbox for a year. most of them don't have email contacts and its hard to reach out for sponsorship or any other deals.
Bazel doesn't guarantee bit-exact outputs, but also Bazel doesn't guarantee pure builds. It does have a sandbox that prevents some impurities, but for example it doesn't prevent things from going out to the network, or even accessing files from anywhere in the filesystem, if you use absolute paths. (Although, on Linux at least, Bazel does prevent you from modifying files outside of the sandbox directory.)

The Nix sandbox does completely obscure the host filesystem and limit network access to processes that can produce a bit-exact output only.

(Bazel also obviously uses the system compilers and headers. Nix does not.)
I noticed that as well. Cool stat. And they aren't just big...a lot of them are scary fast. Having a guy like Tylan Grable (6'6, 310) or Tanor Bortolini (6'4, 305) running after you with a sub-5s 40 at the combine has to be terrifying.

When I was in college in the mid-80s, one of my fraternity brothers was a scholarship linebacker. A big, fast, strong man. He goes back every couple of years for the big 'meet the new players' event for those associated with the athletic association. He said that if he was that 18yo again in 2025, not only would he not be considered for a D1 scholarship, but he probably couldn't have made the practice squad of our D1 team. He'd be looking hopefully at someplace like Albany State or West Alabama for a scholarship.
Can you add the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EURion_constellation and then some small text "this card cannot be photocopied"? Might be a conversation starter.

I used to have plastic transparent cards, can't recommend it though, was hard to read the text. It was a local print shop doing them custom at a very high cost. They did me a favor and I paid less.
For any of this to make any sense, you have to assume that Trump really believes that American heavy manufacturing could be restarted instantaneously; but if Trump believes that, then he is such a fool that trying to interpret his "thinking" on *any* level is a category error.

Arrogant and pointless? You want to use a GUI, go for it.

To me, just because most of my workflow doesn't need to change irrespective if I'm working locally or via ssh, is already making terminal multiplexer a win.

Also, there's something to be said about terminal just being a more productive way to work with computers. The constrains that a terminal puts on software used in it, make the individual pieces compose with each other way better, precisely because text composes better than graphic interfaces. (That's why "visual programming" will always suck.)

My workflow for decades now is entirely terminal with terminal multiplexer and a browser window. The graphical interface works better for exploratory work when I'm mostly navigating and consuming information, like clicking around the web, the textual interface works better for actual precise control and interaction with software. The "GUI" for me is just for changing if my browser/terminal are displayed side by side or maximized and switching between them.

$250 is just part of the price.

I just went through the process and made this for myself: https://www.printables.com/model/1189455-waveshare-133e-6-co...

The total price was around $420. This includes shipping, taxes (to Belgium), a pi zero w2, a sd card, and printing a case.

I think genes or other biological factors play a role in this though, whether it's a preference for calorie dense foods, failure to achieve satiety, slow metabolism (such as not enough NEAT), low willpower, or other factors. There are cases where the stomach empties its contents too fast, leading to hunger soon after eating, which Ozempic and related drugs help treat.

So they didn't have proof, and some participants pinky swore? Cool. And whenever someone gets caught frothing at the mouth over putting people into mass graves and pissing on them or whatever, and other such things that are a constant with the AfD, they leave the party before they get kicked out.

You NEVER heard that shit from the AfD first though, isn't that weird? Like, that someone says such things internally and it causes a ruckus. It's only when non-Nazis catch wind of it and it causes a scandal. Time and time again.

Which is Nazi 101. Which is what they do, until they have enough power and laugh in your face for expecting them to stick to their lip service. We've been there before. All sorts of people have all sorts of experiences with the Nazis and all sorts of ideas, not all of them wrong, but this is ground zero. They live among us, they swim in their sewage of what started as RT-style one sided criticism and by now is just deranged FUD for over a decade now, morphing from what crawled out of the underbrush in the early 90s, they do nothing but block politics -- because they want to "abolish the system", not work together with others in a pluralistic democracy -- and get funded by all sorts of shady sources, a lot of which the subject of criminal investigations.

They are Nazis, and they will be defeated.
I'm not so sure. The acceptance of mass migration is rooted in many of the same principles, and push-back on that issue is fundamentally reshaping the political landscape in the UK and Europe.
You're missing the trade-off between time and money (and how it differs based on wealth).

"Free for all" parking spaces allow you to trade your time (hunting a spot) for parking, the same way coupon-clipping trades time for a discount on food.

You can say "eliminate coupons, all food should be at market price", but coupons really are an effective way of helping people. They segment the market by being too time-consuming for wealthy people to bother with, and are a job for people who don't have a higher-paying one.
Yes.

Always is for dictators. The press have a distressing tendency to point out what you're doing is appalling.

I think the court system is next on the list, because they are now getting in the way.

With DoJ now run by Trump, I can't see the court system successfully resisting subversion.

I think if Americans want a decent Government, they're now going to have to do what the South Koreans did.
Maybe, but does that mean this app doesn't deserve to exist on user's computers if they so choose? Not sure why Apple has a say in that just because they have a massive advantage over every other dev on their platform.

This is why I love having my moped. Easy, abundant parking. Door to door travel.

I virtually always have a more convenient parking spot than the best car parking spot, and it's always available, always free, bc my scooter takes 6 square feet to park, or less, and is freakishly maneuverable.

Ppl think it's a strange choice, but I think that sentiment says more about them than me.
Brilliant - well done!
Among many, many other things, read https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instrumental_convergence . Anything that gets sufficiently smart will have a tendency to, among other things, seek more resources and resist being modified. And this is something that we've seen evidence of: as training runs get larger, AIs start to detect that they're being trained, demonstrate subterfuge, and take actions that influence the training apparatus to modify them less/differently. (e.g. "if I pretend that I'm already emitting responses consistent with what the RLHF wants, I won't need as much modification, and later after training I can stop doing what the RLHF wants")

So, at a very basic level: stop training AIs at that scale!
or just separete what are "document" and what are "application", already, and don´t mix them up. i would not even mind if there was a separate "docjs" - JS code for which only the document is visible and only can do stuff upon it, and the "appjs" which can do all of the wild js stuff which our great browser vendors come up with. this way, in various cases, you can turn off the potentially harmful appjs, while keep the docjs for validating forms, change layout, implementing tinymce, etc...

IMO the problem rooted in co-mingling documents and applications on a web page / in a HTML file. let the user save documents in .html: then it should not be able to do any harm - it's a digital sheet of paper! and web applications in, say, .hta: then he should not expect any more isolatedness then for a downloaded .exe or .sh file; and the user client program should treat it with due care when downloading, eg. by put it in a separate subfolder, set SELinux context, etc...
Show HN: Exponent AI – An AI Marketing Teammate for Your Business
Hey HN,

We spent a lot of time working with small businesses and lean teams, trying to implement custom AI solutions to help them scale. The biggest request we got from most business owners was for help with their digital marketing work.

We’re now excited to introduce Exponent AI, an AI-powered marketing teammate designed to help with marketing planning, content creation, and social media scheduling.

We didn’t want to build a tool that pumped out generic AI content at scale, so we spent a lot of time working on building each company a dedicated knowledge base so that we can integrate their content, assets, branding, etc. The workflows all require human approval and are focused on helping business owners iterate with the help of AI to create cool content.

The entire platform is also pay as you go. You pay per post you create, so it’s built to fit any budget.

We’ve put together a quick demo showing Exponent AI in action: https://youtu.be/F-FOzF72gZ0

Let us know what you think!
What the experiment has repeatedly shown is that people living in non-competitive systems starve to death when they get in the way of a system that has been optimized solely for ruthless economic efficiency.
But this all comes back to the self-interest and game theory discussion.

Let's suppose that, like you, both Moscow and Beijing do not want AGI to exist. What could they do about it? Why should they trust that the rest of the world will also pause their AI development?

This whole discussion is basically a variation on the prisoner's dilemma. Either you cooperate and AI risks are mitigated, or you do not cooperate and try to take the best outcome for yourself.

I think we can expect the latter. Not because it is the right thing or because it is the optimal decision for humanity, but because each individual will deem it their best choice, even after accounting for P(doom).
Decentralized Protocols that use public keys directly as identities
Yeah, this seems like the best option. I don't get the author's confusion

> Option 2 is weird, how do you determine the cutoff?

The cutoff seems obvious. If it is currently always a syntax error allow a comma, if it can be valid syntax preserve the existing behaviour.

I also can't think of any other cases right now, but if needed there can be a few places that don't allow trailing commas. As long as SELECT and CREATE TABLE support it 99% of the benefit will be there.
Can vouch for Audacious, clean straight-forward UI and neat plugin functionality if needed (along with equaliser functionality which is what originally got me on board). Bit of a heavy feel from QT backend though so I might try out DeaDBeeF..!
Neutrinos interact extremely weakly with ordinary matter, which is why the detectors are typically huge volumes of water. Even then, the neutrinos interact with the purpose-built detectors on the order of one in a trillion. A neutrino power generator is not a feasible thing to build.
In the worst case scenario, an attacker can send in one nonsense customer order that gets deleted by staff when they see it. This happens about twice per year. Customer orders are not stored anywhere on the server.
It's much more like wikipedia than Lichess IMO.

The hard part with going completely free is building enough of a community of strong contributors that they are able to effectively curate the contents for quality's sake, rather than the obvious commercial and career incentives to advertise their own work (or sneak in less educational content). That could be very hard to bootstrap without doing a ton of the curation yourself initially, and it requires an ongoing commitment to manage the community once it is established, which is also time consuming.

> I'm taking the term startup to mean shorthand for venture backed startup, as it is usually used on HN and other places.

I don't agree with that characterization because there are plenty of viable and useful "start up" opportunities that require zero outside funding, or only enough to get started. Also, VC funding is literally just debt that can convert to equity (it's a loan that can have an extremely high effective interest rate if you're successful), so you actually want to avoid it as much as possible if you think you have a good shot at accomplishing your goals without it. I think a surprisingly large number of founders and people working in SV/startups don't fully understand that.
In what way is that "No"? The docs say:

> Docker routes container traffic in the nat table, which means that packets are diverted before it reaches the INPUT and OUTPUT chains that ufw uses. Packets are routed before the firewall rules can be applied, effectively ignoring your firewall configuration.

So docker is "effectively" ignoring your firewall in the case of ufw. I don't see how it can be considered to not ignoring your firewall when it ignores the rules you've setup.
I'd say its then more YMMV rather than a blanket "does not live up to the promises".

I can routinely go around most of the metro area on any given day and get hundreds of megabits of throughput back home at <10ms latency on a plan that's costing me ~$30/mo on a device that cost less than $400. I can be in a crowded sports arena and on my regular cellular internet and still manage to pull >50Mbit down despite the crowd. Several years ago, I'd be lucky to even get SMS/MMS out quickly and reliably.
I don't necessarily disagree with you, but I think the issue is a little more nuanced.

Capitalism obviously has advantages and disadvantages. Regulation can address many disadvantages if we are willing. Unfortunately, I think a particular (mostly western) fetish for privileging individuals over communities has been wrongly extended to capital itself (e.g. corporations recognised as entities with rights similar to - and sometimes over-and-above - those of a person). We have literally created monsters. There is no reason we had to go this far. Capitalism doesn't have to mean the preeminence of capital above all else. It needs to be put back in its place and not necessarily discarded. I am certain there are better ways to practice capitalism. They probably involve balancing it out with some other 'isms.

Borrow checker semantics only apply to Rust, not C. When you write the bindings you're also responsible for mapping the C code's preconditions and postconditions to something the borrow checker can understand.

For example, the semi-common pattern of reference-counted objects sitting behind opaque pointers would call for a transparent wrapper type around a bare pointer, with appropriate implementations of Drop and Clone to decrement and increment the reference count, and inlined wrapper methods to call any C methods associated with the object.

You can, of course, call C directly without worrying about writing any of those types; but now you have to write a bunch of unsafe blocks to call those functions all over your non-binding code. This isn't great. In fact, that's basically the underlying argument surrounding R4L right now: the Rust people want to write nice Rust bindings that let the borrow checker do the work, while the C people[0] want Rust to just call C directly. To be clear, both approaches have the same runtime performance, the only implication is on whether or not Rust will be able to verify correctness of the code.

The unsoundness you mentioned specifically refers to taking variadic arguments when called from C, which are a bit of a hack even before you talk about Rust interop. In ISO C, you have to call va_end in the current function, with the current stack frame. Rust's compiler doesn't guarantee that Drop implementations are inlined, so your code might wind up calling something else that calls va_end, which isn't good enough. However, this is a moot point, because LLVM/clang treat va_end as a no-op and thus can't get screwed up by Rust not following ISO C spec. I doubt LLVM is going to add optimizer passes specifically to break code that uses va_end wrong if they aren't even using it themselves. If they did, rustc could be modified specifically to support forcibly inlined Drop, just for std::ffi, if needs be. It wouldn't break any code to add this. In other words, it doesn't matter unless you're trying to make Rust code link with, say, stuff compiled by ancient C compilers like Metrowerks CodeWarrior[1] or something; and that stuff makes use of varargs.

As for Zig, I haven't used it. I trust that it also has good interop facilities. But that doesn't matter since we're talking about Rust for Linux, not Zig for Linux.

[0] Or at least the ones willing to entertain a multi-language Linux

[1] I have no clue if that compiler ships a va_end that depends on being called in the current stack frame or not.
Well...a DECtalk also weighs about 15 lbs and is packed with components. So it was probably a weight/quality tradeoff considering it needed to be mounted on a wheelchair.

Great, so you agree that there exist classes of neuroscience research and experiments that are “worse” than eating animals, so the fact that animals are eaten in bulk does not give a free pass to all classes of “neuroscience research”?

We actually need to evaluate the “neuroscience research” and processes to determine if it constitutes one of these classes?

If no, please explain how my first example is clearly morally superior to eating an animal.

If yes, then please answer the other two concrete hypotheticals I proposed and evaluate their practical and moral content.

I contend that such practices would be unethical and practically worthless, with the benefits being either practically zero or actively negative from engaging in such research practices. So, eating an animal would be morally superior to such bad research practices. Such practices would, furthermore, be strongly dominated by well-known, standard practices which are more ethical, practically useful, and cheaper; thus harm minimization and utility maximization both support the use of standard, known practices in preference.

I also contend that such deviation from standard practices would only be morally justified if you were intentionally attempting to evaluate the standard practices themselves, but that would require both a specific nuanced argument and would preclude such experiments from testing new innovations to avoid disqualifying confounding variables. As such, the proposed hypotheticals do not fit this criteria as they are attempts to “research” some other non-process factor. So you can only argue this point if you wish to argue that intentionally confounding process and research variables is good science.

Trump is notorious for being thin skinned, so this sort of thing is a reflex.

But even worse is outlets pandering to Trump and the right due to perceived threats. Even the NYT is playing along. It's notable that they eased Paul Krugman out after Trump won.
I've met a few people with the same amazing optimism that you describe here and it always surprised me (thank you for that by the way, I understand it requires more nerve to display optimism than pessimism as the former is often associated with silliness whereas the later is more often seen as "sad but true").

This kind of reasoning feels like bad extrapolation : you consider humans 100k years ago and humans now, and you extrapolate ; sure enough, it looks like we are in a journey to become some abstract intelligence filling the universe.

But if you take more samples in the so much longer history of life on earth, you will see that among all life forms that appeared and disappeared, human-like intelligence emerged only once, by accident. And it seems to me that the chaotic evolution of human civilization strongly suggest that it will also disappear accidentally.

Natural selection does not select for that kind of intelligence. Awareness of the environment, yes ; good predictor of the near future changes of this environment, yes. But the creation of larger and larger organisms like a civilization that would evade Earth? I see no reason for that in theory and no evidence in practice.
this has been suspected a while. Nice to see this drug has so many use cases. A truly revolutionary drug whose time has come at what cannot be a better time, now with sports betting being a big problem now too .

Nonsense. The very WAY doge is doing things is bad. You cannot safely shut any large body of human effort down in just a few days and not end up causing damage.

Same thing with deportations. You cannot do deportations en masse without people losing their rights or innocents being hurt.

Scale matters. Timelines matter.
Steam used to max out my internet, but now its smarter about it and starts to decrypt/expand the download as its going instead of doing it in phases. This quickly maxes out my IOPS on even NVMe drives at only several hundred megabits for most games I've tried recently.

Not least because of unfree and/or binary-blob packages that can't be reproducible because they don't even build anything. As much as Guix' strict FOSS and build-from-source policy can be an annoyance, it is a necessary precondition to achieve full reproducibility from source, i.e. the full-source bootstrap.
