This is one of the most tilted pieces I’ve ever read. For months Ed has predicted The AI Bubble will burst “any day now” frequently citing ai company’s revenue as a sign the product is not viable and the valuations are too high. The valuations seem to be primarily based on the R&D progress instead of on a theory that widespread adoption of the existing product will experience an uptick. The current landscape imho should be viewed as an R&D race amongst private actors.
It looks like he didn't flare, just continued strait in. Maybe they lost visibility?

Interestingly, the dots moving about the 2D space resemble eye movements humans involuntarily make when thinking hard and creatively. E.g. looking at random spots (often slightly upwards) and moving to a different place every few seconds or so. Like a kind of synkinesis between brain and eye.
I only heard this during one of the brief cryptocurrency crazes when GPUs became very valuable, and it seemed true, seeing how I made a profit selling an RX580 I had bought new years before.
Do we have an example sequence we can load? Would be easier to try it, out without giving it much thought.

Good news. Washington DC has the highest median pay of any area in the nation... these federal bureaucrats pay themselves insanely high salaries to "work from home". I have friends who work for the gov and all they have to do is join a zoom call once a quarter and otherwise just do whatever they want and not work.
- Why is this being posted in Hacker News? This is technology related stuff.

- Do you realize Trump assumed less than a month ago?

Even when this government is trying to resolve the huge amount of federal waste, it is normal to wait couple of months until it stabilizes.

I remember when my country did a massive reform to the judiciary, it was entirely chaotic for few months.

Under a certain problem you can always hire more people and expect that resolves the issue, but this goes against efficiency as government doesn't have accountability (just check US debt!).

Resolving an efficiency issue is always difficult and chaotic until it stabilizes, governments around the world are known for never updating their processes. They don't even have a database for Social Security!
If Infostealer infections are happening in companies like Lockheed Martin, and even in the U.S Navy, we should conclude that the defense industry is also vulnerable to more sophisticated attacks.

In this new research, we examined the state of Infostealer infections in the most sensitive areas, and the results are concerning. Of the tens of millions of computers infected by Infostealers, a portion belong to individuals employed in sensitive companies.

We analyze the type of access hackers can gain from these infections and speculate on how they could exploit such access.

Then you're back at having "two internets" again. (Well, I don't agree that it's two Internets, but you'd be stuck with the same situation we have already because people would continue to use v4 in order for that software to continue to work.)
I don’t think the basic usage of references is hard to grok for a beginner. If you aren’t going to mutate data and only access it, then pass a reference. No need for over-complicated semantics when describing it to a new Rust user.
Most are, most are affiliate link-farms in disguise as well, and privacyguides.org is written in response to such guides.

It is called privacy guides and not security guides for a reason, and many of our basic "recommendations" are geared towards a specific threat model that does not include, for example, being targeted by law enforcement or others with access to zero-day vulnerabilities or similarly targeted exploits. They are geared towards avoiding commercial-grade tracking, especially by corporations, and dragnet mass surveillance programs.

This is why we place so much of an emphasis on threat modeling before suggesting recommendations in the first place though, to make sure readers know exactly when the recommendations apply to them and when they instead need to seek additional resources. We have countless pages within our community forum detailing why and when Chromium is technically superior to Firefox.

This is also why we don't recommend Firefox on mobile devices at all, because while we do feel Firefox on desktop is adequately secure for many people, we don't feel that is the case on Android, unfortunately.

Anyways, thank you for your insight. I will look into making this more clear at a glance.

Pick your favourite cult checklist and see how much applies. Rationalists certainly have some cult-like characteristics, but e.g. practically any environmentalist group has all the ones you list and more (especially the targeting the young part). In particular the Rationalists I know don't discourage questioning and dissent (quite the opposite), don't focus much on bringing in money or members, don't give their leaders any exalted status or obey them unquestioningly (quite the opposite), don't encourage people to break the law or disobey the proper authorities, and don't try to isolate people from their outside friends or family.
Hey! Thanks for your feedback. Not beating the bizarre allegations but I do agree with you on the larger play button and I've made it bigger. I also agree about the default project, and I've added default videoUrl and padCommands. I still need the user to press the Load Video button to load it in, unfortunately that's a problem I haven't been able to fix so far. I'm curious, which element of the UI do you think I should remove first to make it simpler? Re: browsing other people's work, yes just go to Share Patterns and sort by Most Liked!
I'm in the process of planning a 6-8 day bike tour and wanting to keep it on gravel roads as much as possible. I've done about 150 days of bike touring in the past on paved roads, and I'm done rolling the dice with my life now that apps are so addictive that drivers can't help scrolling while operating a moving vehicle.

Gravelmaps has been a huge help, so has google maps using street view to check for gravel or if necessary the width of the shoulder. Even on side roads that haven't been streetview'd you can still check it at intersections to see.

The planning is VERY time consuming though, lots of permutations of routes to get between 2 points when the goal is to stay off paved surfaces each with various tradeoffs. It would be VERY cool if gravelmap let you input a start and end point and gave you a best route suggestion. Or even if google let you select gravel only.
Big companies already just ignore labor law and either hope litigation is too difficult for their employees or that the fines will be skimpy enough that it's worthwhile anyway.

They aren't doing that though. The most common NAT (PAT) configurations don't deny unsolicited inbound traffic.

They are of course commonly deployed together with a firewall that does deny that traffic, but claiming that NAT blocks connections because it's usually deployed together with a different technology that handles all of the blocking would also be lying.
Good point. I added some default video urls and pad commands. You just have to press load video and press play. You can also instantly load anyone else's pattern into the sequencer on the Share Patterns page!

I've personally worked in such a system. I can tell you -- as someone who asked the question often -- that often, the answer is "because we wrote it that way in 1975 and no one has bothered to spend the time to learn how to make it better since then.

It is not necessarily true something written forty years ago is right. It is not necessarily true that something written forty years ago has some secret logic in it that cannot be improved upon. It is not necessarily true that something written forty years ago cannot be improved by fresh eyes.

Obviously one must not change things recklessly -- but there are often improvements that can be made.
Unfortunately people are struggling to have a nice life. When you struggle, you don't really have the ability to look beyond a very local horizon. The best way to ignite passion among the population is to figure out how to fix the destruction of the middle class and allow people to dream beyond if they can make rent next month or worry about medical bills.

And nation states operate based upon the population's support. If the population was clambering for a mars trip, we'd do one, but without that support, it just won't happen.

That ends up being circular though. The main reason the US and Canada can't build anything is that they don't build anything.
A different study found that red light helps only if it precedes exposure to blue light, blue light and UV light being the main sources of (oxidative) stress on the retina. Knowing that is probably why they didn't bother testing night-time exposure.

Some believe that the reason red light helps is that cytochrome C oxidase can use the red light to convert serotonin to melatonin and that melatonin is the most important anti-oxidant in the human body. (Under this model, melatonin cannot get into the mitochondria, but serotonin can.)

> Obviously it's just a memecoin, but that's what Milei's tweet said, he never mentioned "meme" in his tweet unlike Trump.

Who gives a shit? Let's stop pretending that utilising the word 'meme' in any sort of associative context is some airtight legal defense against this being a lowest common denominator scam. These are both absolutely illegal and disgusting acts that aim to rob people of their money, using the word meme does not absolve Trump from anything.

> One of those pesky laws of thermodynamics seems to imply that if a turbo only used the kinetic energy of the exhaust it would not be able to overcome the losses of transferring the energy into the intake and would be a net drain on power.

Turbos aren't really about transferring energy into the intake. It's about getting more air (oxygen) into the intake, so you can burn more fuel per engine stroke. The extra power comes from combusting more inputs.
This comment is both flagged and dead.
The law of thermodynamics you’re referring to is in a closed system. In this case, energy is being introduced by the burning gasoline pushing the pistons, and as a byproduct of that, exhaust gases are vented at a certain speed and volume. That is wasted energy as it just goes out the tailpipe more forcefully which adds minimal forward momentum to the car.

The reason turbos work is not because they are forcing more air, it’s because they are forcing more air which ALSO raises the compression ratio and the amount of fuel detonating (the MAF will sense the increased air density and add additional fuel to compensate). I.E. a turbo burns more fuel and therefore it produces more power.

Hot air is less dense than cold air (why heat rises). Probably keeping the hot side of the turbo hot helps with gas expansion, perhaps that increases the force on the turbine? I’m not sure about that. But the intercooler is to cool the air on the compression side because cold air is denser. Which means more air into the cylinder, which means more fuel. Probably the colder air helps with auto detonation too which lets you push the compression ratio further if the pistons and cylinders can handle it.

> basically acting as stateful firewalls

Stateful Firewalls are the security tool. NATs being mediocre to somewhat alright stateful firewalls "out-of-the-box" before adding a real Firewall is the accident (and sometimes bug). Something doing security by accident (or as a bug) isn't a security tool (just like security through obscurity isn't a security tool). You can have Stateful Firewalls without NAT. Everyone saying that you "need" NAT to have Stateful Firewalls doesn't understand Firewalls or even possibly why "firewall" is and has always been a different word from "NAT". NAT has something to do with security, but that's being generally always paired with a good firewall, not being a mediocre firewall mostly by accident.
CCP has been posturing selectively in the name of its National Security. As Macro Rubio put it this month: “They like to play these games. They put out these translations where it says one thing in English and then it’s translated in a different – they use a different term in Mandarin”. [1] CCP shows different faces to different audiences selectively.

Rubio was sanctioned twice by CCP in 2020 for speaking up for human rights [2], but was quietly given a different Chinese surname in 2025, possibly to avoid the question of whether he is still under CCP’s sanction as the current US Secretary of State [3]. When asked, CCP gave vague answers [4].

For a similar story, Mike Pence when visiting Hong Kong last month called for China to release the imprisoned publisher Jimmy Lai [5]. Pence was mentioned in the National Security case of Jimmy Lai, which is to say Jimma Lai allegedly violated the National Security Law of Hong Kong by collaborating with foreign adversaries, in particular Mike Pence. But Mike Pence had no problem entering and exiting Hong Kong, only Jimma Lai had, despite the NSL applying to “anyone on Earth, regardless of nationality or location” [6], and had targeted US citizen living in the US before [7].

CCP postures selectively, with a very fluid definition of an enemy of the state, which often does not follow what they say in letter.

Yup, you and Shermantanktop get what I was asking perfectly. Seeking confirmation I hadn’t overlooked anything that I could’ve done better, but you’re both dead-on.

The irony is that for those of us who enjoy maintaining, improving, and eventually replacing legacy stuff (code, systems, infrastructure, etc), what we really want is often just stability in career - hence the moat. It means it’s cheaper to keep us around for the long haul than rehiring us again at current market rates every few years, especially if we’re making ends meet with a high quality of life. But that’d mean focusing on the long term, which I don’t see many companies doing in general.
The space race was to the death. Both sides thought that losing meant they'd get nuked or taken over by the other. A narrative like that for Mars is harder. "We'll take over the red planet and come back and take over the earth! . . . Someday!"

For better or for worse, the equivalent race right now is in AI.
I've used it for a while now on my knees and ankles. Seems like it works. But honestly its hard for me to tell if anything works. I even question Tylenol. All of it seems like it may work some, but its not something I feel has a very acute impact at all.

Without a controlled study, as an individual, how can I tell if my sprain got better in 6 days but would've taken 9 days otherwise???
I don't know wether it's true or not, but I liked the red light, and my spouse too. It helps - improves mood, heals minor pain, calms you down, and warms you up. It also helps with falling taking naps if needed, I fell asleep faster. Lots of joy for $70. I found vintage Kenmore red lamp with red bulb on eBay. I find it better than LEDs, since it emits heat as well.
I typically don’t buy things unless I feel they have some utility, and it seems the cheap ones likely don’t do enough to notice.
At what point with AI transformers could we generate different versions of films:

I’m thinking about a Carry On version of Dune, of Star Wars, The Matrix, Fight Club.

I guess at some point some AI might generate these just for fun for itself, or maybe it’ll be smart enough not to bother.
Their router needs to know what devices are behind it so it can route to them. But if by "their router" you meant "your router"... your ISP doesn't need to know at all. They send all traffic for your prefix to your router, and your router figures it out from there. Your ISP has no idea what devices are involved.

The existence of privacy addresses suggests that some thought was put into this.
If you work at GitHub security, you are bad at your job
This is getting to be embarrassing. It’s been almost a week of trying to alert GitHub to multiple spoofed repositories serving malware. Everyone appears to be sleeping on the job. The malware is easily compared to known IoCs, so it’s even easily automatable.

Can someone at GitHub wake the hell up already and stop serving malware?

You joke, but that's exactly who this government are thinking of. We had the best NLRB for workers in decades and a spell of full employment, and they're now trying to roll that back as best they can while also deporting part of the labor force.
And Lynch's Dune looks like it does, probably in no small part due to Jodorowsky, Giger and Mobius.

I recommend everyone interested in Dune to take a look at Jodorowsky's Dune [0], the documentary which explains how they did the preproduction of Dune, and pitched it to the studios. All the deals eventually fell through, but the pitch decks circulated all the studios for years afterwards, and inspired countless other movie makers.

The best things about the new Dune installments imo is the art, but all, or most of it feels like copy pasted ideas from what came before them. CGI is a huge asset to actually get it working though.
