I think we’re arguing semantics at this point. The leaders of the agencies where actions are taking place are cooperating (or not) with DOGE’s recommendations and executing at their discretion (which may be to accept the full recommendation and apply it immediately). If DOGE is over socializing their “wins” then sure we can agree they could tone it back.
The real problem with the resources deal was the lack of security guarantees.

You know, if we were really adversarial, it would be really really wise to reconsider allowing German planes, whether home built or bought from the US, "loaner" nuclear weapons to carry into battle.

As a UK based engineer, I wish. I cannot for the life of me even get an interview, maybe first level HR interview for US companies. Meanwhile when applying for UK jobs, no problem.

Absolutely infuriating.

This. People keep commenting about it being performative. That’s orthogonal to its purpose. Even the original blogpost points out the limitation of singular focused effort without acknowledging it. It took the author weeks to figure out the actual issue.

Let’s ask ourselves what happens when the story doesn’t end well and it’s a service that government has been providing. The answer may be lives are lost, the economy breaks, enemies win victories, etc.

Move fast and break things is fine in a competitive marketplace. It’s asinine for the government to do.

The answer is to elect better politicians who can nominate better heads and those department heads can drive the necessary change without succumbing to the old guard.
The relief zipper installed on some men's drysuits isn't for use underwater. It's just for use on the surface, to save the hassle of partially removing the drysuit (can be difficult on small boats). But it's also a source of leaks so no one really uses them anymore.
Heh, it wasnt really dishonest. Sure you can cram more in 16bit, but they had product to ship (game). Also, even on 386DX40 game was barelly playable. I had to shrink screen on larger maps to get better frame rate. It worked much better on 486SX 33.. I guess on 486DX/2 66 it was running much snappier.
Confused. Are you saying that, if we took a light bulb (off) and a metal rod (0 charge) beside on another.

Then were somehow able to turn the light bulb on and apply a charge to the that rod at the same time. While also having a detector that can sense a photon and a change in electric field some equal distance away from the bulb and rod.

Then the photon (from the bulb) would reach our detector before the detection of the change in electric field (from the rod)?

Let's suppose the medium is just plain air, and not particularly humid.

Are you sure we can't explain impedance with the water analogy?

You would have to start with alternating current water, since "DC" water maps to DC, where impedance =resistance.

Once you've got alternating water, you can add inductance (inertia) and capacitance (rubber diaphragm tanks) and I think it all works out.

It's just that we don't have a good intuition for alternating water current so it's not a very useful analogy in that case.

Sci fi authors imagined future worlds where reality would be masked by drugs.

The drugs have arrived. They just take the form of phone and computer screens which keep games, forums, but even selective news true or fake in front of our eyes, sometimes BS office memos. We don't know how to make drugs alter our vision, mood, perception of the world to outright provide a "better" one. But we don't really need them. We know how to achieve that with screens and software. (And for the rest, SSRIs and such can alter our mood without even bothering to change the stimulus.)

It is surprising when you look up (from your screen) in the train and see everyone captured by their own reality - which is our new shared reality? Kind of? Pretty close for sci-fi.

The BS office memo asks us to justify our usefulness by Monday fist thing or report to reactor shielding (too soon? too soon.)
Alas, the search engine has led us astray once more.
As I said before, I'm going to go any further than this with you, it's pointless. Your opinions are not my opinions. I think you have a distorted perspective of reality, so it's not going to accomplish anything by trying to point out your errors. The Democrats voting record proves you wrong, but I doubt you've ever seen it. BOTH SIDES ARE NOT EVEN CLOSE TO BEING THE SAME.
Reminds me a little of the Ultima V - Lazarus[1] project, where volunteers re-implemented the entire game in the Dungeon Siege 3D engine. They also added tons of new characters and dialog, side quests, a richer plot, and new artwork and music. They did all this and managed to keep the major plot and game elements the same. They actually managed to greatly improve on what is unarguably :) the best Ultima of the series.

> I’ve often wondered how IQ correlates with the ability to visualize or recall audio of certain things.

Discussing these kinds of differing facets of intelligence with friends and co-workers over the years, my sense is that rather than one linear scale, intelligence is best modeled as being along a varying number of different dimensions. I picture these each as a vector shooting off in divergent directions and the scales on each can differ and be non-linear. Frequent examples include sensory types like visual, audible, spatial, tactile, etc but they can be far more granular and specific than people initially assume. One common area of difference is how the ability expresses itself, for example, in superior processing or superior recall. Sometimes these two correlate but not always. There are a variety of such independent variables like speed and depth which don't always correlate and can vary widely from dimension to dimension in the same person.

This degree of variety makes thinking about and assessing relative intelligence far more complex and interesting than typically assumed. For example, my wife and I are both good Scrabble players, however our mental approaches couldn't be more different. Her searches are faster but not as deep as mine. I'm slower but find more multi-word crossing combos based on obscure words. Who wins depends almost entirely on the turn time we set for the game.

Another area where we're highly divergent is spatial processing. I always have a general sense of my spatial orientation, whereas she has to stop and think about which way to turn even on familiar local streets. We jokingly say that she "has no Tab key" based on the key often used in RPG games to bring up the overhead map. However, when it comes to processing a complex visual field and identifying a different pattern among many similar patterns, I'm objectively terrible. She says I'm "Where's Waldo challenged." This is to the extent that she won't even ask me to pick up something at the store if she knows I don't know what it looks like and she can't tell me exactly which shelf it's on. I could spend five minutes trying to find an unfamiliar box on a packed 12-foot wide section of seven foot tall store shelving. When I'm buying items I've bought before in a store I've been to before, I'm the world's fastest shopper because I know exactly where each item is and my brain intuitively maps an optimized path to collect everything. And all this occurs with no conscious effort on my part. Yet, I'm super slow when in an unfamiliar store or trying to find items I haven't logged a location for.
This is exactly it. A modern university has needs that are far greater and demanding than one of 50+ years ago. And generally, the people doing the ground-level work are underpaid and overworked. If anything, there may be a glut of VP and C-level positions, but they don’t make up the bulk of employees.

Thanks for the kind words! For anyone curious to dive deeper into the crazyness that is quantum mechanics I can highly recommend a few resources:

- Sean M Carroll's work, in particular his Biggest Ideas in the Universe books: https://www.preposterousuniverse.com/biggestideas/

- Artur Ekert, basically the father of Quantum Cryptography has an amazing course for free on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@ArturEkert . It's a very precise and understandable explanation of quantum computing, and some of the math that is involved with quantum mechanics.

- If you have hours to spare, watch Richard Behiel's videos on Youtube. He's like the 3Blue1Brown of Quantum Physics. His latest video on superconductivity and the Higgs Field is almost 5 hours long (!!!) https://youtu.be/DkH1citHtgs?si=-yQNYDu9TlTpE1A0 . It builds on his other videos, so I'd recommend starting at the beginning.

Well at the very least you need to take the stuff about power dynamics to heart, because that's the part that's most relevant and the part that modern Europeans have the worst understanding of.

I find Europeans to be particularly annoying because they've willingly turned themselves into de-facto vassal-states without even realizing it, and despite constantly panicking over the outcomes of internal American politics they never learn their lesson or take any real steps to become less dependent on the United States.

I'm pretty sure I remember the exact same conversations about whether it's safe to host data in America eight years ago, because they haven't changed at all. I happen to think they're over-reacting and that Trump isn't going to do anything with their precious data, but they're well within their rights to have negative opinions about internal american politics. However it's also incumbent upon them to understand that they have no standing in who the American people elect, and that if they don't feel safe not being America's #1 priority they need to become more self-reliant. Europe is not the center of the world to us, they're just another one of the six continents that aren't North America.
My guess is that elon doesn't care about tesla except as a share price.
When I really think about ETH and well others. I question is there really some market cap. Or is the value actually more so the coins in active circulation, with some lowering factor for big reserves. That is that market cap is in sense a lie, and amount of circulating tokens is what really indicate the value. As thus removing tokens from circulation actually would remove value. Just that calculating market cap is really hard. Unlike say redeemable stocks for say ETF.
Hmm but what lookup does a human need to do? Identity documents have had chips for quite some years now so you just need to touch it to the reader and beep through, or for even older ones, they've had a machine-readable section since as long as I'm alive. A standardized government-issued passport is probably faster to read than a potentially dark and reflective phone screen or crinkled piece of paper, and equally fast in the case where the person presents a well-readable document. The gate doesn't even need to do any database lookup: it can locally store the list of the 200-odd names of passengers during boarding

I'm just speculating but if they can simply do a name+DOB-based lookup at a counter, it seems to me like the boarding pass thing might just be for historic reasons where people would feel weird if they are suddenly tracked based on personal details instead of a ticket

I don’t get why you are downvoted.

Every war that the NATO countries somehow miraculously got involved in is an economic war for natural resources and control, and the big EU countries always take their share of the pie.

Ukraine’s resources, one way or another, will be split up between Russia, EU, and the US (or more precisely it will end up in the hands of the oligarchs and “black rocks” of these countries).
This seems reasonable, but my concern is that the money would not do much good. It could simply lead to a more powerful bureaucracy that prioritizes its own survival instead of it’s original mission, like what seems to have happened with the Mozilla or Wikipedia foundations. More money doesn’t always solve problems. It can simply create new problems.
This was the biggest culture shock the first time I went to China a few years ago. At least half the cars are electric (you can identify them by the license plate). 90% of the electric cars I saw were from brands I'd never seen before. There were at least a dozen different brands that seemed to be super popular. I rode in a bunch of them, and they're all super nice inside, with large screens and well-made interior.

Western car brands are about to get a lot of competition.
It's indeed easy not to care about "our beef with Russia" when you're far away from them. The feeling is quite different when you live next to them, and know that your home might get bombed one day because of Putin's geopolitical fantasies you have absolutely no control over.

I like free speech, but I would rather not die because an army of Russian trolls managed to replace Western democratic governments with Russian puppets.

Just Paste and Get an AI-Generated Summary – Synthebrief
Tired of reading long reports, articles, or research papers? I felt the same, so I built Synthebrief– an AI-powered summarization tool that extracts key insights instantly.

How it works:
Paste any text and AI generates a concise summary & key takeaways

Why I built this?
I wanted a quick, no-BS tool to extract key information from long texts. No clutter, no distractions – just simple AI summarization for busy people.

Synthebrief is still an MVP, and I’ll decide on further development based on demand. Would love to hear your feedback – what features would make it even better?

I did a week without my phone and it was astonishing how uncomfortable I was with… doing nothing. The act of just waiting for anything made me instinctively reach for the phone and when it wasn’t there… it was uncomfortable to not get that hit. Even after a week, it hadn’t gone away.

I think HN is about 7-8 years behind tech when it comes to crypto. You still hear people talking about ‘gas fees’, slow transaction times, and people like the parent have no idea the variety of asset classes that are tradable onchain.
The people in charge don't want good action, they just want action and now. They want to damage these institutions. They have published and spoken extensively on this. That we keep letting their defenders change the narrative to pretend anything else and continue to give good faith WHEN THEY HAVE TOLD US THEY ARE NOT ACTING IN GOOD FAITH in insane to me.

BTW, interesting thinking on the action for action's sake governing style:

"The cult of action for action’s sake. “Action being beautiful in itself, it must be taken before, or without, any previous reflection. Thinking is a form of emasculation."

If that action also hurts liberals working at traditionally liberal aligned institutions, all the better in their minds.

To be fair, if people die sooner from obesity/cancer issues the economic benefit can be measured easily. An aging population, not in the workforce, demanding subsidies is…not efficient. If they were corralled into large group homes, it would be less detrimental financially, but culturally and ethically in the USA this notion is highly problematic (yet valid if efficiency and savings are the primary drivers of discussion and action).
