Well, this is clearly wrong – it's obvious, for example, that gender identity could have a significant impact on mental health.

Regardless of that, you seem to agree that:

- Sex assigned at birth is important medical information

- Information about gender affirming treatments is important medical information

So I don't think there's much to worry about there.

Thank you. In my mind, "planning" doesn’t necessarily imply higher-order reasoning but rather some form of search, ideally with backtracking. Of course, architecturally, we know that can’t happen during inference. Your example of the indefinite article is a great illustration of how this illusion of planning might occur. I wonder if anyone at Anthropic could compare the two cases (some sort of minimal/differential analysis) and share their insights.

I hardly think most (any?) democrats or their constituents are talking about affirmative action in this day and age.

It’s pretty shocking that this extremely fringe issue is the only thing you can find to support the narrative that dems are “spearheading” radical social change.

Whats actually happening is that conservative fear monger about random various minority groups, as they have for all of time, and then enact policies intended to harm them. The dems have no choice but to respond.

You would think that conservatives continuing this playbook for, well, ever, would cause people to stop and say “wait… are the conservatives really the ones stirring up the culture war?” But no, somehow it hasn’t. Somehow, we’re all still living under the delusion that conservatives just maintain the status quo and oppose radical change, and not that they’re the ones creating the need for opposing action.
I feel like it's getting harder to tell what dagger is _actually_ for these days.

At first we'd hoped it could replace jenkins - it provided an alternative way to run and debug CI pipelines - right on your machine! You could write in golang and just import what you needed. The dev direction feels more scattered now, trying to replace docker, be a new shell(?), and weirdly trying to be some kind of langchain? Doing something different doesn't imply better. A new set of complicated CLI args is no better than what we started with (shell scripts, or jenkinsfiles to integrate docker builds). I'm a little bummed that the project has seemingly drifted (in my view) from the original mission.

Prices are not solely a function of the seller’s cost of goods sold. Supply and demand determine price, so if there is sufficient supply, then rents will be too low for large landlords to recoup their tax costs, so they will be incentivized to sell the property. This means less rent seeking, and higher supply of housing for buyers.
All the "evidence" you cite is effectively "trust me, bro".

In the US, more people believe in angels than in evolution. I'd wager that the latter part is due to the former. I'm not a scientist but the theory of evolution is very simple and there's ample real world evidence to back it up. Where are all the angels these days?
It's amusing that you picked Massachusetts. You can get rid of all eviction records as part of the Affordable Homes Act.

What this means is that you can rent somewhere, not pay, it will take a minimum of 6 months to get rid of them since they can request RAFT and you must wait until the application is processed before the trial can proceed. After they're successfully evicted, after 4 years of no evictions, they can have it sealed, regardless if the judgement is paid or not.

Or, you can pay the judgement and have it sealed immediately, effectively getting a free loan. Not to mention, if you don't pay and proceedings are brought against you, if you pay to cure, prior to going to trial, you can have those sealed immediately with or without the landlord, so other landlords can't even know about that either.

Repeat. Free rent.

What does this have to do with FDA or drugs? Re-read the comment I was replying to. It's complaining that a technology could serve one group of people better than another, and I would argue that this should not be our goal.

A technology should be judged by "does it provide value to any group or harm any other group". But endlessly dividing people into groups and saying how everything is unfair because it benefits group A over group B due to the nature of the problem, just results in endless hand-wringing and conservatism and delays useful technology from being released due to the fear of mean headlines like this.

It's very plausible to me that there IS a negative site weighting to DF. But that it might come from the aggregate history of flags or angry/contentious comments posted on DF articles.

It certainly could be a personal moderator thumb on the scale, but at the scale of HN I'd expect they have some automated formula for site weighting based on the other factors mentioned.

My theory is that most perceived perspective errors arise when a photograph captured with a wide field of view is shown in a narrower one; a perspective-"distorted" image looks more realistic if you put your nose up to the screen so the photograph fills more of your field of view (enlarging the center and eventually squashing the edges). And tricks like Panini projection and Piranesi's arches are ways of making features at the edge of the screen "take up" the correct amount of viewing angle (without bending straight lines) when the painting takes up less of your vision than the original scene.
Note that we see a lot of complex polyaromatic hydrocarbons in interstellar dust across the galaxy. And we know these can sometimes have quite long alkane chains attached or "inside". I don't think we can rule out stuff like that decomposing at those GC/MS conditions and giving the same signal. And that's even before the leap to fatty acids which may or may not have a biological origin.
I mean hey, while we're violating international norms...

>That assumes the dark forest wouldn't kill us anyway, just to be safe.

It doesn't. It assumes that the likelihood of the dark forest killing us increases with the size of the target we present. That likelihood is never zero. It's probably at least 50/50.

>A large number of free-floating fusion-powered colonies, gradually expanding through the Oort cloud and then to other star systems, would be quite a bit more difficult to destroy.

Unless we're assuming some kind of magitech, it would probably take thousands of years or longer to establish more than a few colonies (particularly interstellar colonies) and because there's no stealth in space, it would be obvious to anyone watching. Difficult to destroy is relative to time, resources and effort.

>If a civilization detects us from a distance of 100 light years, then we'll have two hundred years of technological advancement and further expansion by the time they hit us.

I'm assuming any civilization capable of successfully attacking us from that distance is sufficiently advanced that 200 years of relative technological development isn't going to matter. And if it does, why would that stop them? If they've already committed to exterminating any advanced species they detect, the risk of retaliation is implied. It's us or them either way.

The non-tinfoil hat approach is to simply Google "Boston demographics", and think of how training data distribution impacts model performance.

> The data set used to train CheXzero included more men, more people between 40 and 80 years old, and more white patients, which Yang says underscores the need for larger, more diverse data sets.

I'm not a doctor so I cannot tell you how xrays differ across genders / ethnicities, but these models aren't magic (especially computer vision ones, which are usually much smaller). If there are meaningful differences and they don't see those specific cases in training data, they will always fail to recognize them at inference.
Citation needed. Personalized medicine seems like a great idea in principle, but so far attempts to put it into practice have been underwhelming in terms of improved patient outcomes. You seem to be assuming that these tools actually are effective, but generally that remains unproven.

Hmm. Sounds as an interesting problem.

But how can you really differentiate b/w a user opening git and some other program running git.

I think we would need friction there , some sort of manual intervention.

The best I could think of was something like bitwarden/keepassxc like cli where it requires a password and it would just straight up copy that token into github.

If we are really talking / you have the source code and you want end to end security , you could theoeretically also compile git with the specific idea / implementation of whatever encrypted password manager you might use directly within the code of git / github but I know that can be an overkill for this problem.

I live in an area in Los Angeles that passed a similar law a few years ago (actually I live in an ADU) I can say the exact opposite has been true here. SO many houses have added ADUs - some rented out - but the vast majority are turning their properties into multi-generational living.
Can't say that rent has come down per-say, but I have managed to rent one at below market. Having individual landlords with the pressure of paying their HELOC means they are less likely to sit on an empty unit for 5 months waiting for the most high dollar tenant. I 100% feel like this policy has been a big net positive.

what I would really like to see now is allowing owners to sub-divide and sell the ADU. This could bring back the "starter-home" that no longer exists and has kept me out of the market

You assert disagreement by repeating what was said using different words? Interesting.
Sure, you're right in most cases. In the use-case I had, it's a private registry with "immutable" tags (at least enough to stop accidental overwrites - and it is a homelab, so if someone else did it, I'd have worse problems ;))

The point was more about using null_triggers (or `terraform_data` I see) and using the trigger replacement, with the docker resources as purely an illustration.
I would liken it instead of disappearing into fantasy worlds to instead being enchanted in the traditional sense- to be taken over and made a thrall. In D&D, you roll dice to pretend to shoot fire; there can be very little illusion that you are actually doing anything with material reality effects. Fox News has real people telling the viewers about events that have film evidence that can, at least partially, be verified to be actually occurring amongst their peer group even if the depiction of the context is completely different. Lia Thomas is in fact a trans woman who competed in competitive swimming as a woman in college who won in a division of that competitive swimming team three years ago. Whether or not this represents a statistically significant takeover of womens sports by violent men with sexual fantasies of public female performance is up to framing.
Have you spent any time looking at OpenCore Legacy? I briefly was using it on my 2014 13" MBP to install whatever the latest version-1 was. It worked well for a bit but I ran into an issue after an update. I bailed on it but learned later that it was a relatively easy fix. Might give some new feature support to you.

I really think this era of MBPs was the best. I'm kind of shocked how well my 2014 still works.

I have one of those Shields connected to a trash TV and have a low level of satisfaction with it compared to an XBOX ONE on the other TV now that I'm running Plex. It just has so many little annoyances like the controller seems to discharge itself between uses every time, an Android interface that almost makes sense, etc. It sits next to a used Blu-Ray player so I can play discs.

I am thinking about replacing it with a used PS4 or maybe a PS5 so I can get a great Plex client that also plays discs, the used PS4 costs less than a new Shield -- even though I'm disinvesting from Xbox in favor of steam I'm sure there are still some PS4 exclusive games I'd like to play, though it is late enough in the lifecycle that the PS5 doesn't seem crazy to me and it would be future proof in terms of supporting a future high-end TV.

I'm sure humans can make similar errors, but we're definitely less suggestible than current language models. For example, if you tell a chat-tuned LLM it's incorrect, it will almost always respond with something like "I'm sorry, you're right..." A human would be much more likely to push back if they're confident.
theoretically you could always use the previous version / iterate on them.

I think this approach of see what sticks and them trying out a lot of different things can be nice but not in its current form.

I worked with the Dagger team on that. It was super hard to marry two DAG engines that work in opposite directions. The team eventually heard from users they wanted to write in the language of their choice, so there are now a bunch of SDKs.

I think one could wrap the Go SDK with CUE, and have oft considered doing it, but the work has not migrated from the backlog yet. I've been toying with a CUE powered monorepo DX CLI that is more akin to BuildPacks, using Dagger as the containerization layer.
Bookmark Toolbar Separator
My favorite way to use bookmarks is the bookmark bar. I usually don't have any folders and I usually only use bookmarks for top level domains such as [drive.google.com](drive.google.com). And my favorite way to name my bookmarks is with no name! This leaves the fav.ico as the only indication of where the bookmark takes you. VERY ATHSTETIC. The only issue is with 20 or so favicons there was no way to add separation between different groups of icons. A github pages with a blank favicon would do the trick.

Culture is everything. Culture being the people you're surrounded with on a daily basis, not the culture of an arbitrary geography. The people you interact with in your home, at school, at work, at the church/sports club. What is the distribution of their actions, values, practices?

It is the major decider from the way one talks, one walks, one acts, one decides, everything.

Can it be overruled by nature? Yes, very rarely. There's always a very small percentage of people (often thought of as neurodivergent, or witches, or simply free-spirited or eccentric, all case by case) who's neurogenetics cause them to partiaLly diverge. But these are the exceptions.
