Oh we are on HN, just usually don't comment.

He had enough proof, his own students, who assumingly agreed. And in case the company still pretends there is no problem you could still crawl their entire user base...

Also consent.

Wait for the other person to do so willingly seems kinda good advice in many areas.

Making predictions on how it will turn out VS designing how it should be. Up til now, powerful people needed lots and lots of other humans to sustain their power&life. Thus that dependency gave the masses leverage. Now I'd like a society we're everyone is valued for being human and stuff. With democracies we got quite far in that direction. Attempts to go even further... Let's just say "didn't work out". And right now, especially in the US, the societal system seems to go back to "power" instead rules.

Yeah, I see a bleak future ahead. Guess that's life, after all.

What's the solution then? Chain 2 AIs, the first one is fine tuned on / has RAG access to your content telling a second that actually produces content what files are relevant (and logged)?

Or just a system prompt "log where all the info comes from"...

You forgot c) real but won't be looked at by understaffed police agencies

HellCopter in my case. Few years ago I still somehow manages to get some edition running, no luck this time. Rot is a thing and the retro gaming & archival communities a blessing.

The good old "we don't serve gays" argument.

The baker case I think was about the cake, thus having to produce "reprehensible" art. Editorial work (steam selecting what games to promote) is Sth I strongly think is their right to choose. But having a transaction run through your network? That's on the other side of the spectrum, way closer to the "no gay customer" situation. If they'd at least pretend it's because of, idk, higher card fraud rates...

It will! Just yesterday had it run

git reset --hard HEAD~1

After it commited some unrelated files and telling it to fix it.

Am enough of a dev to look up some dangling heads, thankfully

There are tones of non-obvious options. Eg make it appear like being shoot-downs. With a bunch of RNG / logic to make it non-obvious... random percentage, only when getting close to target, so many ways...

The real enemy is QA. Don't want it misbehaving during a virtual test flight.

Yes, it is a thing. I open ms edge every time i want to view logs in our spring boot admin. Same one for one of the jira ticket workflows. Might find the time to look into it someday...

Yeah, will probably be the same as with horses. Quiet a few of them standing around at the outskirts of the my town. Maybe we'll get an equivalent to horse girls

Social responsibility?

I have a few colleagues who like the way they work and would prefer everything to stay the way it is. Such "skilled artisans" might be on the way out, replaced by "Ai factory" mass production.

Sure, they could just be kicked out and replaced. But they worked with the company, in some case for a decade plus. Giving them a fair picture of what seems to be down the road is the very least I'd expect of a company treating it's workers as more than just replaceable cogwheels.

And the same will be said about election choices.

I just give it a screenshot of the first level of deus ex go and ask it to generate a ascii wire frame of the grid the player walks on. Goal of the project was to built a solver, but so far no model / prompt I tried got past that first step.

Wow, those pressure waves! Didn't see them yet, on all the close up footage. Thx for posting

Well, they probably have an Unterlassungsanspruch if the file was shared from your network, so not signing the letter can make it worse. But my experience with Waldorf Frommer is from like 10 years ago, so best practices might have changed.

Back then, for those interested: the monitor file sharing networks, download a tiny bit of data from you (uploading is the expensive part in Germany) to prove you upload, go to a judge who will force you ISP to give them the contact, send you an Abmahnung, requesting an Unterlassungserklärung and cash (500 damages, 500 lawyer cost). We just sent a modified "we are not doing damages" letter and ignored any future communication from them. There was more to scare us, but they did not follow through with a lawsuit. Oh and ofc I made sure that no further upload could be detected. Yes there were rulings back then holding the connection-owner legally responsible

Having wasted more than a decade doing pretty much nothing than playing pc...

a) The drive to change has to come from inside. I've seen quite a few people being sent to the online/gaming addiction group. Usually, they only come once.

b) Changing one self is hard generally. But here we got quite a bit of... idk, lets call it "damage". So many missing skills, confidence. So many bad, deeply ingrained habits. So many thoughts to avoid & distract from. And still no idea what will make me content.

c) I'm wondering quite often if not starting that journey would have been the better choice. If i could have found a way to stay happy. One motivator for me was the disdain for what i'd become, so no way back now. Now it'd be great to only disdain that past me ...

Just like users prefer domain names over ip's. But they are necessary.

and then taking over when necessary

Yes, and that has to be safely possible. From my reading, the article has no problems with remote operators giving command. The truck just also needs the ability to both safely execute them and come to some safe state by itself if necessary commands don't arrive [in time].

The interesting question is how complicated those safe states are to realize. Just hitting the breaks on a freeway seems hardly acceptable. Generally, this being harder than for cars in cities is a core conclusion of the article.

population has become quite the taboo. Utterly unacceptable to restrict reproduction

More like not necessary anymore, since birthrates tend do decline by themself in more afluent countries, once sex is decoupled from reproduction and children are not the primary retirement plan anymore. "Helping poor countries" is just easier to sell than "We must make them stop having babies".

I like this description. Most one point one i've seen in the thread and you doc. So its not really a tool to use, but more of framework to follow. Wouldn't be the first framework to provide tools / setup processes and workflows in a better than ever tradeoff of features/complexity/skill floor/etc.

But yeah, quite a lot of hype and red flags. My favorite from the website: "Rama is programmed entirely with a Java API – no custom languages or DSLs." And when you look at the example BankTransferModule.java: > .ifTrue("isSuccess", Block.localTransform("$$funds", Path.key("toUserId").nullToVal(0).term(Ops.PLUS, "*amt")))

Yeah, it's probably fair to call that a DSL, even if entirly java.

Anyway, hope to get the chance to work with event based systems one day and who knows, maybe it will be Rama.

Eh, these are implementation details.

But how can those stores effectively compete while being controlled by the same entity? The EU breaking up Apple into separate companies for each "store" because of this argument would be pretty funny, though.

as the former takes more effort to fix than the latter

Disagree. Well, maybe still acceptable if the software is small / limited to a single paper. Having worked on a code base the people writing it learned programming on that job, guessing their intention is like archeology. And each iteration tended to add some complicated interdependence. Or like when int errorCode came from other, overlapping error ranges.

A part of the "new" code base is exactly as described by TFA. Including most interfaces having only one implementation. But while annoying, I am more able to work on it without things breaking...

Well, i had the same question and looking for this & the rules in general was... lets call it "a fun evening".

Those common charger EU rules pushing USB-C via the Radio Equipment Directive are actually only for the device, and even a specific list of types. But in briefing document [2] (made for RED change last year) mentions:

a separate initiative on the eco-design for the external power supply (EPS) would harmonise the EPS-side receptacle and the communication protocol.

So "EPS" is what we are looking for and they use some eco laws to regulate them. [1] gives an overview and links COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) 2019/1782. And again, it only applies to a specific set of devices, with power tools not being listed. Doubt those fall under "Other toys, leisure and sports equipment"^^

Back to that EPS initiative... from my understanding, it [3] seems to be still "Planned for Third quarter 2023". Feedback period ended in May 2022, ofc.

The department seems to have vacant spot [4] for an expert, btw :)

I also consume a lot more Spotify than anything else, but get a lot more value/hour from eg YouTube.

Btw Spotify, if you want me to "agree" to your price hike, asking over and over again with the same threat of probably downgrade me to the free version is just stupid. I might simply resubscribe then. Or just try some different service that shows me some respect, instead of attempting to get a miss-click out of me.

Probably a good idea anyway, both to get out of my current bubble but also see what value/$ competitors offer.

5 years to deorbit passively is correct, but the expected service life is in somewhat similar. Best quote i've got on hand right now is wikipedia:

"...implement an operations plan for the orderly de-orbit of satellites nearing the end of their useful lives (roughly five to seven years) at a rate far faster than is required under international standards.

Obviously there are many unknowns in factors like hardware reliability or fuel consumption.

Then why decide now that SpaceX won't get the money? Does another company get the contract? Otherwise would have assumed to simply check at/after the delivery date...

Idk, porting isn't free, especially good ports. It seems less likely for eg a successful indie game to contract out a port, if all existing owners have to get it for free.

It would be very user-friendly and am quite happy to have also gotten some mobile versions on Humble bundle

But do you want to work with people you cannot disagree with? Like, at some point we will probably disagree on work related topics as well, and I'd expect it to go somewhat similarly.
