&gt; The big issue with the US is the de facto inability to commit mental health patients to involuntary mental health holds unlike much of Europe due to the current interpretation of the 14th amendment<p>… Eh? Large-scale involuntary committal largely ended in Western Europe decades ago. What figures are you basing this on?

If you&#x27;re suggesting that accidently additive products and services be banned from use for the public good then I&#x27;m in 100% agreement. What I&#x27;m not sure of is how that could possibly be reliably achieved. I guess &#x27;sin&#x27; taxes would a blend of freedom and prohibition but then you get a government that depends on the sin for it&#x27;s revenue which sets up a rather perverse incentive. Like an alcohol tax in Russia, or indulgences for the Catholic church.<p>TikTok is slowly destroying my sisters life and there is nothing anyone can do about it since she does not think it&#x27;s a problem and she is an adult.

We&#x27;ve had people drive around our HOA and just take packages off of people&#x27;s porches. Someone stopped them and they told the person that it is their constitutional right to steal packages...<p>But what can you do? In all seriousness, when you call the cops it takes them 10 minutes to get there, and they&#x27;re gone.<p>So they don&#x27;t show up anymore. At all.<p>And even if they get caught they get released.

A huge congrats to the Weird Gloop team on this, and to the League of Legends community for what&#x27;s certain to be a huge bump to the availability of high-quality information and community space.<p>As others have pointed out, the RuneScape Wiki (where Weird Gloop started out) is probably the highest quality gaming wiki on the internet. Not only is its information itself up-to-date and accurate, but it has countless custom features and interactive tools that elevate it from a crowdsourced knowledgebase to a sort of data and analytics hub for the game.<p>Anyway, this really is terrific news and any wiki that chooses to partner with Weird Gloop is certainly in the best of hands.

Microsoft learned from the years of its own users accepting 3rd party malware on their machines pre Win-7, and pretty much all phone users (Android definitely, probably iOS as well but I&#x27;m less familiar) accepting unremovable bloatware, so they added it back with Win8+.<p>Honestly Windows 10 is&#x2F;was pretty good once you removed the MS malware but they&#x27;re definitely antagonistic as a whole.

High performance applications are already being written that depend on features like shared memory, but because the language has poor support for them then developers have to use ugly workarounds. This proposal solves that with built-in support.<p>&gt;It should just stay this way<p>Counterpoint: JS has been evolving significantly, look at ES6 and ES8 in particular if you need help finding examples.

Burgers aren&#x27;t supposed to have plot developments and surprises like stories. That comparison makes no sense to me.<p>I would feel deceived if the ad showed off a beef burger and I got chicken. Or if I got some kind of meal that&#x27;s the correct size but has a burger portion only 4cm wide. Now, sometimes trailers avoid big chunks of genre in service of not spoiling things, and that&#x27;s a gambit that can work out, but most movies are a consistent genre and if they&#x27;re trying to hype up a tiny portion of the movie because the rest is boring then that&#x27;s not good.

Using a huge amount of cocaine could kill anyone, but a moderate amount can be tolerated by anyone without preexisting cardiovascular problems. That might rule out a lot of people 70+, but certainly not all. Like with most recreational drugs, most of the risks come with using large amounts or chronic use. Remember, these are substances used by tens of millions of people every year and have been for decades if not longer. They may not be FDA approved (well, some forms of cocaine are) but they are known quantities (well, minus the black market impurities).

&gt; Do you have any examples of this? Like an example project?<p>Not the OP, but I worked on loans once. The application originally required tax returns to check income. Then we added the option to upload recent bank statements instead of tax returns. But there were a lot of places where the assumption of tax returns was hard-coded, so to save time the developers basically added an entirely separate code path for bank statements. Do this n times, and you have 2^n code paths.<p>When we eventually refactored and fixed it, we replaced the hardcoded references to tax returns with a concept of estimated income. Then we were able to reduce the branch to simply saying &quot;if tax returns are present, estimated income = get_estimated_income_from_tax_returns(), otherwise estimated income = get_estimated_income_from_bank_statement()&quot;.<p>That&#x27;s the core idea – collapse a branch as soon as possible.

That same graph had me jump towards the sampling theorem - playing back an animation with linear interpolation creates hard edges, e.g. frequency spikes. I‘m not sure if the movement space is comparable to audio here, but I can‘t see why not.<p>so; if the sampling theorem applies; having 2x the maximum movement „frequency“ should be enough to perfectly recreate them, as long as you „filter out“ any higher frequencies when playing back the animation by using something like fft upscaling (re-sampling) instead of linear or bezier interpolation.<p>(having written this, I realize that‘s probably what everyone is doing.)

&gt; Frontend is a mishmash of random components and packages<p>You could say the same about developing in Clojure, or Rust or Golang, but somehow you typically only see this same tired rhetoric applied to JavaScript.

Did you mean &quot;opt-in&quot; rather than optional? Optional is the same as &quot;you can disable it&quot;. Also, you scratched it out. Are you sure they just enable it without asking? The link above even has a screenshot.

&gt; If you&#x27;re doing auth in 2024, please consider not supporting passwords.<p>And then realize that you need to support them, because they are the most universal solution there is for an average user. Email&#x2F;Username + Password is the most portable way to do login as a user that we have invented.

&gt;Think about it this way: would you have the excited conversation of &quot;wasn&#x27;t it cool when so-and-so chopped whathisname&#x27;s head with the sword!?!?&quot; before or after actually watching the scene as intended?<p>It really depends on if I have seen the movie, and how recently. If it is going to contextualize the scene for me, then before, so I can think about what they said.<p>Back when DVD was king, I liked directors commentary where they talked throughout <i>the entire move.</i>

I&#x27;ve found similar. I don&#x27;t know if it was post-Covid, but I have completely asymptomatic high blood pressure. It&#x27;s really scary to go to the doctor for an extremely routine health check expecting to be back at work in an hour, and then suddenly be told that your blood pressure is so high that you need to go to hospital immediately.<p>There&#x27;s no obvious cause, I&#x27;m fit and healthy in all other ways, I&#x27;ve had multiple blood tests and ECGs, my cholesterol is normal, everything is normal, just the blood pressure. I also didn&#x27;t know about this machine but I might get one. I have developed anxiety around having it taken (because of the experience of getting sent to hospital!) so it goes up when I take it, like extreme white-coat syndrome.<p>I&#x27;m definitely getting one of these gadgets so I can see what it really is, without the stress and pain (those things hurt!) of inflating cuffs.

I explained it poorly I think.<p>I meant to say the bonus is a poor motivation for anyone. You can get 5 bonuses a year for no effort by asking for a higher salary or good tax planning!<p>So for many you burn social capital by trying to recruit to your company. It only is worth it if you think your company is good and the job would be such a good match for John that he should leave his job and vesting etc.<p>The exception to this is bringing across people you like to worth with.<p>I am sure that this happens and can be good. I have not seen it happen at IC or Manager level (although heard of it talking ti someone at a meetup).<p>I have seen VC level do it so 2 levels above manager bringing their mates across. I have seen this usually lead to a bad outcome for existing staff and the business.

I found the exact reverse with the jog. One day I went into the mountains with a cuff on my wrist and took a bunch of measurements. I wasn&#x27;t jogging but I had something like 25 pounds on my back and was definitely pushing myself.<p>There was a huge effect from perceived temperature--while I didn&#x27;t do the cold plunge I got some quite high readings when I was on the chilly side. Yet I could get low-normal readings with my heart rate above 130 which is the highest I could go at that elevation. Obviously I couldn&#x27;t actually take a reading while moving but I could have it on my wrist, stop and immediately press the button. The pattern I observed was activity raises temperature which lowers blood pressure.

No, that scheme would be too hard to contain so the three letter agencies are blatant about it. They just let tech companies develop these things and know they&#x27;ll have access to the data anyway.<p>For every real user that finds a tool slurping up data to be useful, there are 100 law enforcement agents also saying it&#x27;s useful so everyone should hop on the bandwagon.

If you write Rust like this (insisting that structs always fulfill &#x27;static) you will end up unnecessarily cloning memory way more than you would in a GC&#x27;ed language.<p>In GCed languages strings get allocated once when you need them, get referred to wherever you want, however many times you want (with no new calls to the allocation subsystem), and are freed once when you don&#x27;t need them anymore, with minimal thought or intervention on the programmers part. Rust is absolutely not like this at all.<p>I agree with the overall idea that people exaggerate the difficulty of Rust, but come on, this is an exaggeration way too far in the other direction.

So we have this proposed change which will cause a bunch of needless churn.<p>Then we have people saying &quot;just don&#x27;t upgrade anything if you don&#x27;t want to deal with the churn&quot; but that too is a very large burden for all the reasons I mentioned.<p>All the reasonable adults in the room want option 3: don&#x27;t do the thing that causes needless churn.<p>&gt; But I expect to read criticism of features based on their actual merits and consequences, not on the principle that it&#x27;s new or backwards-incompatible or would cause &quot;churn&quot;.<p>I am honestly shocked to see this attitude. Churn is a very real consequence. Do you have no respect for the time of the countless devs who use python?

Which is kind of why I didn&#x27;t actually address their points, and simply added my own experience, from what their post brought up in me, without trying to analyze them (besides that they are young). Their grief, and their anxiety, are not really something that I can realistically appreciate, and I doubt there&#x27;s much I could say, that would make anything better. I do appreciate their sharing vulnerably, and have no intentions of exacerbating their personal pain.<p>Figuring people out, from extremely small sample sizes, is a skill that I sometimes <i>think</i> that I have, but, in reality, completely lack.

When lambda came out and serverless started getting big, most scrappy startups hired many frontend devs.<p>It was the heydays of SPAs, light backends, and thick frontends.<p>“Serverless” is a great way to say “you don’t need to be a backend dev or even know anything about backend to deploy with us”<p>And it worked really really well.<p>Then people realized that they should know a thing or two about backend.<p>I always really hated that term.

Email + magic link is a pattern I keep seeing that&#x27;s far more secure in practice. So is email + email OTP.<p>(I&#x27;ve also seen phone + phone OTP, but oh please never ask me for a phone number ever again. My phone number should always only be for making and receiving calls, not for verifying any sort of identity or personhood.)<p>Of course, nothing beats the security and privacy of username + password + TOTP (or security key), but you can&#x27;t necessarily expect normal users to know to do that (or how).<p>Hell, I&#x27;ve seen at least one site that keeps the login username (what you actually use to sign into your account) separate from the public username (what everyone else sees), just to even more disconnect the login credentials from anything a potential attacker would have access to. But this is overkill for most scenarios (that particular platform does have a good reason).

Like all investments it’s a hope that trading work done today will be worth work done in the future.<p>This only holds when supply of work is high and demand is low. If the amount of work requested in the future is higher than the supply then it doesn’t matter how many pieces of paper you have to prove that you worked in the past, you are not going to get that work done.<p>With a shrinking population you’re relying of productivity gains, and in areas that old people need, like personal care, there’s only limited gains to be had. If there’s only 100 hours of ass wiping being done but 200 hours demanded, then half of the people requiring that service will be disapointed.<p>But that’s just the general problem of timeshifting your work. You rely on the next generation to honour “the deal”.<p>Now the 401k specifically has other issues. It tends to be “pile money in the S&amp;P”, which simply increases the values of those stocks regardless of their fundamental worth. Passive investments lead to bubbles and collapse.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.ft.com&#x2F;content&#x2F;994bdda8-b704-4e4c-9b19-4e0021f0b309" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.ft.com&#x2F;content&#x2F;994bdda8-b704-4e4c-9b19-4e0021f0b...</a><p>Throw both of those together and you end up with a disaster waiting to happen.

Also the innovations you mentioned are from a time before China had a massive population compared to Europe. I am talking about the last few generations when the human population exploded. Why would an innovation from 1000 years ago have any relevance.

Top rates are kind of useless; some countries have many more brackets than others. The US used to have a 90% tax bracket, but that didn’t make it a particularly high-tax country; effectively no-one paid it. Comparisons, are in practice, inherently difficult, because the curves caused by the tax brackets and credits can be very different. It really depends an awful lot on income.

Well, I got Monado and libsurvive running some time ago (Valve Index, X11, Nvidia), even for Beat Saber. It sadly was unplayable, because reflections were wrong in VR apps, it felt like both eyes using the same reflection angle instead of adjusting it to each eye. For close objects this was bearable, anything further away would look &quot;wrong&quot; and cause VR sickness. Also the FoV was wrong, it felt like a vignette around the screen edges, a good bit narrower than in SteamVR. Oh yeah, and the latest version did not build for me, used a previous one.<p>Performance, especially in Beat Saber, was great and better than SteamVR!<p>I would expect SteamVR to at least work enough for calibration. You could try switching to beta or other versions.

Better advice is to be honest about your product&#x2F;project&#x27;s social scope and make appropriate choices for that scope, or else let your users make that choice for themselves.<p>The world is not improved or made more robust if every experience online must be gated through some third-party vendor&#x27;s physical widget (or non-trivial software).<p>There are parts of our lives that benefit from the added securiry that comes alongside that brittleness and commercial dependence, and parts that don&#x27;t. Let&#x27;s not pretend otherwise.

Soon there won&#x27;t be any blogs anymore written by humans. Perplexity, Kagi, Google, ChatGPT will kill ads revenue for them. There will be only synthetic generated content. I have generated some answers with hallucinated AI, and then Kagi scanned these pages and returned them as the answer for another generated page, which will be scanned again and again. Never ending loop with synthetic and fake content. Same I can do with Recipes. This is the end of the Internet, goodbye.

&gt; treating a disfavored group<p>Hold on: in what possible way, by what conceivable metric, are the wealthy a disfavored group? Name for me any way a wealthy person struggles. It is some mad &quot;leave the billionaire alone&quot; cope to try and say the literally most privileged, by definition, class of folks on the planet are somehow oppressed.<p>&gt; and being literally unable to comprehend that groups are made up of different people.<p>Of course they are, but as a group of people who share commonalities of experience, priorities, and oftentimes physical location and interaction, they necessarily also have more in common with one another than with people who are far disconnected from them. That is why people like Ellen Degeneres are taking pictures with George Bush: George Bush has far more in common with Ellen than Ellen does to the vast, vast, vast majority of her audience.<p>This goes double for economic interest. A world that no longer privileges wealth, even putting aside bogeymen like taxation or confiscation, <i>will</i> be unappealing to every wealthy person, because their wealth currently makes the world bend over backwards for them, and that&#x27;s <i>pretty sweet</i> and nobody apart from the most principled people on the planet would willingly give that up.<p>&gt; Under that logic you get howlers of counter-factuals like &quot;Kings were rich and therefore there was never a war between kings.&quot; It is up there with the abject stupidity of System of a Down accidentally going pro-monarchist by asking why don&#x27;t presidents fight the war.<p>I mean if you don&#x27;t think it makes politicians of any stripe, kingly or otherwise, more ready to declare war if they know full well they themselves will not be expected to take up arms, then you have far more faith in people than I do.<p>Though I don&#x27;t know where you got that quote from, if it is indeed a quote. I&#x27;m a much bigger fan of &quot;when the rich wage war, it&#x27;s the poor who die.&quot; And I think you&#x27;d be hard pressed to find a conflict where, outside some strange exceptional occurrence, that wasn&#x27;t quite true.<p>&gt; The job of a bank is to accumulate idle money to put to use in investment to generate returns. &quot;Why does money accumulate in the money accumulator that generates more the more money is put inside of it?&quot;<p>I don&#x27;t object to the <i>money accumulator</i> accumulating money, I object to the money accumulator, when it malfunctions, having it&#x27;s money replenished with tax dollars it did not earn by performing it&#x27;s function, from which the guy who owns the accumulator draws a substantial salary afterwards, despite overseeing when the accumulator stopped working.

If you use Ubuntu Cinnamon it will look like it too.

The author discusses the perceptual allowances for different kinds of inputs (the noise in images, etc), and it&#x27;s a really interesting point that helps sketch some boundaries around where the LLM&#x2F;Diffusion model paradigms are useful.<p>Human color perception is almost entirely comparative - we see something as Blue because within the context of the other objects in a scene and the perceived lighting, the color an object would be that looked the way the object in the scene does is Blue (this is the blue dress phenomenon) - and so noise in images is easy for us to ignore. Similarly, audio and especially speech perception is also very strongly contextually dependent (as attested by the McGurk effect), so we can also deal with a lot of noise or imprecision - in other words, generative guesswork.<p>Motion, on the other hand, and especially human motion, is something we&#x27;re exquisitely attentive to - think of how many horror movies convey a character&#x27;s &#x27;off-ness&#x27; by subtle variations in how they move. In this case, the diffusion model&#x27;s tendency towards guesswork is much, much less easily ignored - our brains are paying tight attention to subtle variations, and anything weird alarms us.<p>A constant part of the conversation around LLMs, etc. is exactly this level of detail-mindedness (or, the &quot;hallucinations&quot; conversation), and I think that&#x27;s basically where you&#x27;re going to land with things like this - where you need actual genuine precision, where there&#x27;s some proof point on whether or not something is accurate, the generative models are going to be a harder fit, whereas areas where you can get by with &quot;pretty good&quot;, they&#x27;ll be transformative.<p>(I&#x27;ve said it elsewhere here, but my rule of thumb for the LLMs and generative models is that if a mediocre answer fast moves the needle - basically, if there&#x27;s more value in speed than precision - the LLMs are a good fit. If not, they&#x27;re not.)

Spoilers aren&#x27;t generally an issue for me. If the content is good enough it doesn&#x27;t matter knowing what happens at the end. Obviously some things are better unspoiled, maybe like the Usual Suspects, but that rewatched just as interesting as the first time I saw it.<p>I think you actually have more in common with the people you are lambasting than you think. You seem to all think the specific plot events are the point of the content.

&gt;epicycles all the way down<p>I don&#x27;t mind this idea at all! I&#x27;m the abyss staring into itself.<p>That said I don&#x27;t think digging into skulls until we identify the neurons that cause the big sad or teaching people ways to cope with their awful lives is worth much. I want psychology to help me understand (a maybe terrible) existence, not to solve it. Something like overturning our intuitions is perfect. If tomorrow they make a flawless anti-depressant that will let me endure misery I argue we&#x27;ll be worse off.
