It doesn't matter what Nixon's context was Vance was quoting him literally by proclaiming it a piece of wisdom.

Posting the entire speech only bolsters my view. For example

"[To accomplish goals].. I think are fundamentally dependent on going through a set of very hostile institutions - specifically the universities..."

I'm confused about your argument. I don't consider it a smoking gun just a concise example of what Vance and MAGA Republicans belive. There's no context confusion, it's on video, and it being dull only shows how comfortable he is exposing insane views.
Ah, thank you. I was so terribly disappointed to see that take on here.
Nobody who does live streaming should set their gop to 6 seconds. That's way too big. I set ours to 2 seconds, which lets mobile adjust more quickly to their bandwidth limits.

And as a note, video segments for live are usually set to no cache, as are vod segments. The CDN does the caching. The client should keep segments around if you're doing rewind, but that's a client thing.
nice essay! had no idea about how wasteful the existing process can be
I completely agree— and that's across spheres of life. I don't want that from an intimate partner, I don't want it from friends, colleagues, my boss, pastor, therapist, the lady at the DMV, none of it.

Tell me the straight dope, and if I've messed something up, tell me what I did and how you think I should make it better. Don't butter me up or try to trick me into "discovering" on my own the thing that you actually want me to do.

> Political suicide to roll back tax breaks if they are primarily for the <$150k earners, like trump wants.

What tax breaks has he aimed at these people beyond some of the overtime and tipping (which is expected to only equate to about $2K)?

Instead:

>The largest tax cuts would accrue to the highest-income families, the Treasury said.

> Household in the top 5% — who earn more than $450,000 a year, roughly — are the “biggest winners,” according to a July 2024 analysis by the Urban-Brookings Tax Policy Center. They’d get over 45% of the benefits of extending the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, it said.

> A Penn Wharton Budget Model analysis on the impacts of the broad Republican tax plan had a similar finding.

> The bottom 80% of income earners would get 29% of the total value of proposed tax cuts in 2026, according to the Wharton analysis, issued Thursday. The top 10% would get 56% of the value, it said.
People want to preserve their culture for the same reasons, because it is their culture, it is their identity. How? Simple. Stop bringing in people that do not share your culture inside your country in large numbers.

Historically, they thought other cultures to be not as civilized/savages because often those cultures were not as developed, or as civilized, and often contained human sacrifice rituals. Regardless, forcing their culture on them was wrong just like it is now.

The first step is stop mass immigration. Then revoke all non-highly-skilled labour visas etc. Then add a $50k/yr additional tax to all work related visas, paid by the employee.

Also, not talking about US since they made their bed by bringing in through slavery, but talking about majority of Europe.

It feels like you are so scared of being seen as racist that you will sacrifice your culture just so you don't get called a racist.
Taxing billionaires is just one of many necessary steps but it is the most important and vital step in my opinion. There are fundamental problems with how the US is run down to the local level but it starts with taxing billionaires and getting money out of politics.
I can understand this standpoint, but it's also a bit hypocritical (on a site-wide basis, not specifically you).

HN has been a place where the people currently running the government got praise. Elon Musk had huge thousand post threads every time he did something marginally interesting. Now that he's running roughshod over the government, any negative actions he takes are suddenly political and do not deserve to be here.

A lot of the current admin is a beast of Tech's creation. The time to stop this problem from coming to roost was years ago.
Am I missing where this article actually proposes this “isolated execution environment”? It’s mentioned in the intro and summary (and title), but the rest of the post is mainly a list of why it’s hard to do early verification of eBPF code.

Okay, this is true!

So I’m left wanting to know why the author thinks less rigid “isolation” is a suitable answer to the problem. “JavaScript does something similar” is the only detail I could find. But JavaScript notably does not run in the kernel.

Ultimately this just seems like a post saying “it’s too hard to do everything we want within the current limitations of eBPF. But makes no effort to explain why getting rid of these strictures would be worth the huge security and reliability hole it would be creating, or how they would avoid those issues.
"no right to dictate what other people do with his creations" seems a little radical -- i.e., you don't believe copyright should exist?

Do you think a movie's creator can dictate that I'm not allowed to use a pirated version of a movie to display for 100% profit at my 10,000 AMC movie theaters? Or a book's creator can dictate that I'm not allowed to copy their book, put my name on it, and sell it on Amazon for half-price?

If you agree that a creator can do those things, then you're already in a gray area between "they can dictate everything" and "they have no rights." At that point, you're arguing over the precise location of the line.

Been using this for https://github.com/cartography-cncf/cartography and am very happy, thanks for building this.

Automated review tools like this are especially important for an open source project because you have to maintain a quality bar to keep yourself sane but if you're too picky then no one from the community will want to contribute. AI tools are like linters and have no feelings, so they will give the feedback that you as a reviewer may have been hesitant to give, and that's awesome.

Oh, and on the product itself, I think it's super cool that it comes up with rules on its own to check for based on conventions and patterns that you've enforced over time. E.g. we use it to make sure that all function calls that pull from an upstream API are decorated with our standard error handler.
Really depends on what you're doing, and how you write the Rust. I'd never claim this is always true, but Rust can be pretty concise depending on what you're doing. See this previous comment of mine, which links to some others with an example I've evolved over time on this forum: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42312721
Again, the issue is the term "vapourware" does not refer to software which one considers bad, misguided from its original goals, or a failure.
Based on what? Have the laws changed, or has there been a recent ruling on something related to this?

Surely laws of nature are still relevant since they (presumably) establish limits on how closely a system can be measured and which physical interactions can be simulated by computers (and how accurately).
Current AI is stuck imitating what it’s exposed to. If they actually learned the material they would understand to reject incorrect information in their training data. LLM’s etc can’t do that under current methodology, simply sucking up more training data and tossing more processing power at the algorithm doesn’t solve that issue.

Leaning from music doesn’t mean imitating that music. People can for example learn from mistakes without imitating those mistakes.
People write articles like this and then wonder why we are so politically divided.

I do agree there’s a point past which someone is ideologically unable to be reasoned with. The classic example is neo-Nazis, of course. But also of course, there are redeemed neo-Nazis.

Coming from a conservative family and living in a deep blue state I’ve had my fair share of arguments on both sides. As other commenters have stated, it’s all about emotions. If you can make the other person feel like they are being heard and assuage their fears about X, Y, or Z, then you can make progress, even if it’s small progress.
How is this not "about" that? The headline of the article is literally calling it a "ripoff." The GP's comment is exactly what the article is discussing. No one is arguing Franklin is not worth mentioning.

Hey Cahaya,

While we benchmarked internally, on BEIR, we opted not to report our model onto MTEB for the following reason:

1) MTEB has been gamed - if you look at this model (https://huggingface.co/voyageai/voyage-3-m-exp) on the MTEB leaderboard, its an intermediate checkpoint of Voyage-3-Large where they finetuned it on datasets that represent MTEB datasets.

2) If you look at the recent datasets in MMTEB, you'll find that it has quite a lot of machine translated or "weird" datasets that are quite noisy

In general, for our Search Models, we benchmark on these public academic datasets but we definitely do not try to hillclimb in this direction as we find it has little correlation with real use-cases
> Am I just too paranoid about email?

You are not. I always say your email account is the most valuable thing you own. You need to keep it more secure than even your bank account (because that is easy to recover and rollback if stolen)

My password manager and email are the two things I own that require three factors to access - username, password, and hardware authenticator.

No way in hell I’m going to even consider using a new webmail product from a small startup.
> Social networks tend to reflect the character of their founders.

I would say "owners" rather than "founders", but I agree with you. I think Sam Altman's couldn't be worse than Elon Musk's X, no?
> Pretty bad false equivalency. Barry was barred from running and went to federal prison. Yes, he was eligible to run (and was re-elected) but only _after_ he served his sentence. Did I miss the part where Trump went to jail?

Nope. Though you also missed the part where the manufacturing of "felony" charges was so novel they had never been attempted before. The closest parallel is probably the case of John Edwards who was acquitted: https://www.nytimes.com/2012/06/01/us/edwards-jury-returns-n... But you probably think it's because he was also a white man and not because there was no criminal act.

I'm curious if you can even sum up what exactly was the felony that Trump was convicted, or even better, who's the victim? Because all I saw was an overzealous DA in NY with utter disregard for the actual law.

> You also can't compare a mayoral election with a presidential one.

Yes. And clearly people of DC would rather elect a Democrat crackhead over any Republican.
I am ignorant here, this is a genuine question - is there any reason to assume that a paper solely about image mimicry can be blanket-applied, as OP is doing, to audio mimicry?
> If that is their goal, should they even be classified as a university?

There is no universal definition of what the goal of a university should be.

At the very top of Harvard's mission page it says, "Our mission to educate future leaders is woven throughout the Harvard College experience, inspiring every member of our community to strive toward a more just, fair, and promising world."

There is NOWHERE where they say anything even remotely like, "Our goal is to reward students who do well in high school coursework and testing." Nor do they say anything like, "The mission of Harvard is to teach as much academic material to students as possible."

In contrast Caltech says, "The mission of the California Institute of Technology is to expand human knowledge and benefit society through research integrated with education. We investigate the most challenging, fundamental problems in science and technology in a singularly collegial, interdisciplinary atmosphere, while educating outstanding students to become creative members of society."

It's much more focused on solving science and tech problems and a focus on educating outstanding students. There is very little here about leadership.

And so you tend to see that CalTech has some of the top scientists and professors in the world. At the same time, even in tech/science companies, they occupy a small percentage of CEOs. Those aren't the people they are intending to nurture.

There's room for different types of education with different goals and metrics, including admissions metrics.

And anyone can create a university and say,"We look at grades and test score. We don't ask for recs or essays. Don't care about what your goals are. We stack rank based on GPASATAPs and then select the top N." That's a perfectly valid approach. I wouldn't want to go to that school, but it sounds like there are some students who would, and I wouldn't object to it.
I'm not sure about the "fencepost error" part, but he's thinking of days as durations rather than points. It's early in the thread, about halfway down the first page:

> You don't start counting on sunday, it hasn't been a day yet, you don't start counting til monday. You can't count the day that it is, did you never take basic elementrary math?

Put in other terms, TheJosh uses "Sun - Sun" as inclusive start and exclusive end, while Justin-27 uses "Sun - Sat" as inclusive start and inclusive end.

I think TheJosh mixed things up when trying to explain it (durations vs inclusive/exclusive), so doubles down and comes up with weirder stuff later in the thread. I didn't read the whole thing though, stopped near the bottom of the first page.
the thing is, language shapes our thinking, discursive psychology will back me up on this.

Thanks for letting me know! I took down e-mail signups since it looks like it'll require Mailgun after all, which I'd rather not get into the weeds over when I'm really just putting thoughts down at the moment.

If you have an RSS Aggregator, the main URL has an RSS feed (green.spacedino.net/rss). Less e-mail clog, easier updates, though Ghost's RSS feed isn't exactly terminal-friendly if that's your jam (mainly due to mixed media).

I might get around to fixing e-mail in the future. Appreciate the heads-up though, thank you!

> ?ing Errors and never actually handling them is just a terrible practice.

This isn't true. It really depends.

fn main() -> anyhow::Result<()> {

can be perfectly good, depending on your needs.

What Rust does with error handling is give you flexibility. It's true that means you can make a mess. I myself have a TODO on my current codebase where I'm not exactly happy with what I'm doing at the moment overall. But it can also be very elegant, and more importantly, it doesn't force you into one paradigm that many not be good for your needs, but allows you to decide, which is very important in Rust's conceptual space. I wouldn't want to be forced to use the above signature in a no_std context, for example.

I cannot name a single use of peer-to-peer Bitcoin that is not outperformed by Monero in latency, gas price and privacy. Frankly, if you use Bitcoin as a storage of value I would argue you don't know the first thing about investing.

Bitcoin is almost entirely useless without L2 workarounds, at which point you might as well compare the Monero L2 chains as well.

The point of this, particularly for children (e.g. as a parent), is to build emotional bonds and stability, not to get them to do what you want. That can be a nice side effect in the moment, and is indeed more likely over the long term with this approach. But the chief goal is emotional safety, validation, etc.

Out of the box, it can be useful depending on the infrastructure of your area. I live in the Seattle area and we have a strong Meshtastic network here. I can occasionally even can see ACKs / testing from Vancouver CA. I own a node that sits at home all day and there's always messages being received in the public LongFast channels. The protocol makes use of all nodes for any type of messaging, so private channels also benefit.

As for files, not possible out of the box for most people, but tools like ATAK-Civ can make use of 'data packages' and send them over radio. I've used it to successfully send memes and map files in testing.

I suspect the experience of being a dolphin is stranger and more alien than we will ever know. This is a creature that employs its sense of sonar as part of how it understands the world, and has evolved with that sense. It will have concepts related to sonar and echolocation that we cannot grasp. We might be able to map a clumsy understanding of them, e.g. a dolphin cannot smell, it might be able to understand "my nose can taste the air", but is that the same? At least in humans with sensory deficiencies, there are parts of the brain that have evolved alongside the same senses that an unimpaired person has.

Maybe we could finagle an interspecies pidgin, but I wouldn't be surprised if we just fool ourselves for a while before we realize that dolphin language is just different. Even the word language brings along a set of rules and concepts that are almost certainly uniquely human.
