> “Since October 7, Jewish students have faced relentless violence, intimidation, and anti-Semitic harassment on their campuses — only to be ignored by those who are supposed to protect them,” she said in a statement. “Universities must comply with all federal antidiscrimination laws if they are going to receive federal funding. For too long, Columbia has abandoned that obligation to Jewish students studying on its campus. Today, we demonstrate to Columbia and other universities that we will not tolerate their appalling inaction any longer.”

They took away money from Columbia for not suppressing free speech and not having enough DEI.
How many deaths would there have been if people did not have access to the technologies that create air pollution? If every CO2/pollution emitting device (cars, power plants, metal production, food processing, coal mines, etc) were all to be shuttered or massively cut back at once, deaths would increase substantially more. Yeah air pollution is bad but I think the solution needs to be incentive/reward based rather than punitive.

I think your characterization shows the true desperation of the war fuel cries.

It's betrayal, ww3, my children marched off to world war, my wife will be raped. I've heard it all. The viciousness against not funding conscripts going into the meat shredder makes me think the war mongers must be desperate their blood sacrifice (and the accompanying money train) is coming to an end.

Some of these mega-evaluations make me nervous. Maybe I'm overly bearish but I don't think Anthropic is that likely to generate enough revenue for this, particularly in a world with so many, often free, competitors.

They can drop more, orders aren't being cancelled. Imagine that the UK needs to launch an F35 against, let's say Argentina, and the US says no and prevents that plane from taking of to defend the Falkland Islands. Would Germany, Denmark, Norway, the UK and others still want the rest of the planes they ordered, or will they cancel?

> How would this work? Who's going to set up the taxonomy / classification tree for every domain/site on the internet just so a guardian can say "yes to drugs, no to porn, no to news, no to weapons..."?

This isn't really an answer, but the same problem exists with current age verification laws. I think the main difference with traditional parental control software is that the burden would be on the site maintainer to accurately report the appropriateness of their content. If not, they would be legally liable. Of course this introduces the problem that foreign entities not subject to the law are effectively exempt from the requirement.
In the long run, I believe yes. PE also would not have been helpful in the late 1920s or late 1990s. But things tend to revert.

One of the reasons why different companies have different p/e for a long time is expectation of growth. So META has had a pretty high P/E, but then E has been growing really fast. GM's earnings don't grow so past so the P/E is low. And capital efficiency also hurts P/E.

Disclaimer: I believe stocks represent fractional ownership of an actual company and are ultimately (but not always) valued as such. You can make an argument that financial instruments are just driven by sentiment, supply and demand, and have no correlation to actual reality.
Damn, that would be quite cool.

I'm sorry, can you point to such a prescriptive dictionary? People can talk however they please, and dictionaries are tasked with keeping up with the vernacular.

My eyes have always bugged me, but I've also had allergies. It's also become clear over time that I have pretty bad astigmatism. I've always been farsighted.

I first got "dimestore readers" specifically for computer use, to reduce eyestrain. When I put them on at the beginning of the day I'd notice some weirdness (phantom artifacts and double vision) but my brain would cancel it out and all was good. After about a decade though, I wasn't noticing those artifacts at the beginning of the day, but while driving home I'd see double. That led to getting prescription glasses, and learning lot about astigmatism.

Until recently, I always tested better than normal at infinity without glasses. At infinity, most of my correction is astigmatism. Corrected, I'm still 20/10. But here's the "weird trick": I've learned that it's something that my eyes / brain are doing combined with the astigmatism. I can still conjure "hot spots" with near perfect clarity even without glasses, but it strains my eyes (I don't get full FOV clarity without glasses anymore).

I can't stand progressive lenses, although I have a pair for super close-in work. All my task glasses are "single pane of glass", my "infinity" glasses are bifocals. These days my eyes are more comfortable wearing the infinity glasses than not. The truly noticeable difference with glasses was night driving: no more stars! Huge reduction in eyestrain and improved basic ability to see when challenged by oncoming headlights; I've combined that with some aggressive rose tint in a pair specifically for night driving (very 70's mod frames. woot!).

I'll never get Lasik because I've been told repeatedly that if I did so they wouldn't be able to correct me to 20/10 any longer.
250 miles? The mission official website of Intuitive Machines says 250 meters. From https://www.intuitivemachines.com/im-2

> HOUSTON, TX – March 7, 2025 – Intuitive Machines, Inc. (Nasdaq: LUNR, LUNRW) (“Intuitive Machines”) (“Company”), a leading space exploration, infrastructure, and services company, has announced the IM-2 mission lunar lander, Athena, landed 250 meters from its intended landing site in the Mons Mouton region of the lunar south pole, inside of a crater.

It's also somewhat funny that this mission update is written in the style of a press releases, mentioning that stock ticker and an obligatory paragraph about forward-looking statements, whereas others are just a normal update.
>Taking pain meds daily for life doesn't seem like a good plan.

Definitely not a good plan, especially Ibuprofen. My mother took Ibuprofen for years to manage her arthritis and that absolutely wrecked her kidneys. Not to mention Ibuprofen can also cause internal bleeding. It's a quick short term fix but not a good long term solution.
It's not simple when big decisions have to be made, like investments, car purchases/loans, and home-related stuff. Main thing people don't seem to understand is that money upfront is worth more than money later.

It feels like a gold rush for sure.
Counterfeit meaning not the product they actually paid for.

For example, an RTX 3050 probably had thing margins when it came out (or some equivalent GPU with low margins).

But! You can still counterfeit it and put in a GT 430 and have the same shroud - and people do just that.

Amazon HDMI cables are cheap, I’m sure, but an older spec HDMI cable with no HDCP is probably even cheaper. And you can’t really tell the difference… until everything is streaming at 480p.

Neither, it's its own thing. Most similar to tmux, but you interact with it more like you'd interact with a graphical window manager.
You’d be paying the extra mass cost of landing gears for each pancake - something has to absorb the impact of landing or they’ll just break apart. These landers already operate at the margin.
Surveyor and other probes have landed autonomously in the years leading up to Apollo, and after it as well. We definitely do have the technology, but having not used it for a couple decades, we've gone a bit rusty with it.
The marks on plastic aren't recycling categories, they identify the plastic resin. They partially indicate recyclability but the form is important.

I presume it was all that Lunar wind that just toppled it in the end.
250 meters is very respectable for a first try.

Apollo 14 and 12 achieved 30 meters and 163 meters with human piloting, respectively, and that's after the program made precision landing a high-effort mission goal. The automated missions of the 60s-70s were often off target by a kilometre or more, but Surveyor 3 came in within 200 meters as well in '67.

Japan did a mission in 2024 with the express purpose of achieving automated precision landing - SLIM, nicknamed "Moon Sniper" - and hit 55 meters off center of a 100-by-100 elipse despite losing a main engine nozzle during descent (but also landed on its side, bummer). 50-150 meters is what the Chinese missions in the 2010s generally managed to do at times as well. I think Chang'e 5 (2020) holds the present record at within 10 meters.
It'll be competitive just in time for them to move to UDNA.... or have they walked that back too?
As I recall, Apollo 11 was off by 4 miles downrange, which was considered good but not precise. More work on the guidance / navigation system allowed for a precision landing in Apollo 12 (to touch down near a Surveyor probe).
Those don't just work anymore either.

At this point, I don’t see much reason to believe the “AGI is imminent and these things are potentially dangerous!” line at all. It looks like it was just Altman doing his thing where he makes shit up to hype whatever he’s selling. Worked great, too. “Oooh, it’s so dangerous, we’re so concerned about safety! Also, you better buy our stuff.”
your confusion is understandable, because "age verification" can mean anything from "check the box that says you're 18" to "upload a picture of the front and back of your driver's license".

> When I go to pornhub I have to click a button that days I’m 18.

if you were in Texas, it'd be not reachable at all [0]. this is due to a bill [1] that would have required Pornhub to use the more intrusive age-verification options. it also allows for significant fines for non-compliance. if a 16 year old kid used their 19 year old brother's ID to get through the verification, Pornhub could potentially be liable for up to $250k. and the broadest reading of that bill would mean that quarter-million fine applies every time a minor bypassed the age-verification check.

I don’t think you will find any disagreement on either point.

“Democracy” is often used as a general term for governments that in some sense are a delegation of citizen power. Even though a pure democracy would remove the delegation.

As a practical matter, the US model has devolved into a party-duocracy. Power at all levels has nearly completely centralized at the national level of each majority party. Of which there are only two. The extreme minimum of choice even for a Republic.
Look at what the major banks are doing.

All of them have some sort of post quantum security program.

None of them have deployed post quantum security at scale.

To me this means that they have a estimate of >10 years <30 years for Q day.

I disagree with them - I think >20 years < 50 years... but wtf do I know! I'm a fella on the internet with an axe to grind :)
Once upon a time a bunch of nerds failed 3 times in a row while launching small rockets from an atoll. Some 20 years later they are now 13k+ nerds, they're launching every other day, land their boosters and are slowly becoming an ISP with a rocket launching side business.

Space is hard. There's nothing "embarrassing" in controlled landing on the freakin Moon with a shoestring budget, even if the landers fell over. Reddit's r/technology is leaking in this thread.

If you look at it less as "if A then B" and more like "if A then possibly B" as it's usually intended then I think you can strip the fallacy.

Almost anything is possible, but even in this case it was never inevitable or inherently true that age verification for X meant age verification for Y. Which means the value - if any - for a slippery slope argument is "consider the possibilities X might open up"
Trying to understand it... if by comparison I'm using tmux then switching to something like this adds mouse based window (panel) management?
They can't turn it off completely without hurting themselves, the US needs high precision GPS around the world, so I doubt they'd do that.
There's not enough consensus and science communicators haven't been successful with convincing the American public about vaccines. This research will also be some of the most impactful science the CDC produces. If we bring all the deniers and skeptics to agree on a way to test it (e.g. double blind study), and then the results don't match their opinions, then continued denials makes their case unreasonable.
Not true. A significant portion of the US is in mourning over the betrayal of our allies.
> By design, AR models lack planning and reasoning capabilities. If you generate one word at a time, you don’t really have a general idea of where you’re heading.

I have one minor quibble here, which is that the limitation described isn't a criticism of AR models (whose outputs are only "backward-looking" for their inputs), but just a subset of AR models in popular use. An AR model is fully capable of generating a large state space and doing many computations (even doing many full-connected diffusion steps) before generating the first output token.

That quibble wouldn't be worth mentioning unless AR models had some sort of advantage, but they do, and it's incredibly important. AR factorization of the conditional probabilities allows you to additively consider the loss contribution from each output token -- you can blindly shove whatever data you want into the thing, add up all the errors, and backpropagate, all while guaranteeing that the distribution you're learning is the same distribution from your training data.

If you're not careful, via some mechanism (like AR), the distribution you learn will have almost nothing to do with the distribution you're training on -- a common failure mode being a tendancy to predict "average-looking" sub-tiles in a composite image and only predict images which can be comprised out of those smaller, averge-looking sub-tiles. Imagine (as an example, with low enough model capacity), you had a model generating people and everyone was vaguely 5'10", ambiguously gendered, and a bit tan, contrasted with that same model trained using AR where you'd expect the outputs to be bad in other ways if you had insufficient capacity but to at least have a mix of colors, heights, and genders. Increasing capacity can help, but why bother when something like AR solves it by definition?
Show HN: Open-Source ETL to index data
I’ve built an open source framework (CocoIndex) to prepare data for RAG with my friend.

Features:
- Data flow programming

- Support custom logic - you can plugin your own choice of chunking, embedding, vector stores; plugin your own logic like lego. We have three examples in the repo for now. In the long run, we also want to support dedupe, reconcile etc.

- Incremental updates. We provide state management out-of-box to minimize re-computation. Right now, it checks if a file from a data source is updated. In future, it will be at smaller granularity, e.g., at chunk level.

- Python SDK (RUST core with Python binding)

Sincerely looking for feedback and learning from your thoughts. Here is a quick start video tutorial too.

And yet, when other companies have grown their earnings like mad, their price has outgrown it, driving their P/E up further, because the market expects higher future earnings. nvidia is reaping the rewards of the things built up to now, but isn't necessarily expected to continue to hockey stick.

Incorrect, it was founded with more goals than that. It also has the mechanism of democracy for updating over time, and such updates have added prosperity producing things like taxation for public provision of education, infrastructure and much more. Which means that the initial version of the technology called the United States have long since gotten various updates.
They probably saw the latest models like gpt 4.5 not being as revolutionary as expected and deepseek and others catching up.
