Trump thinks "artificial" means "fake". He is obsessed with real vs fake: fake news, realDonaldTrump.

OK so I'm supposed to know what a predictive surface is now?

Not sure why the title on HN ends with a question mark. It's grammatically incorrect and not in the original article

Or dired

Any advances in theoretical physics yet? Are there any fundamental obstacles? I would have thought not, but I haven't seen anything reported.

One comment - the perfect pitch exercise becomes a relative pitch exercise as soon as you get one note right. I don't believe I have perfect pitch but I got 100% on the quiz I just did.

I think I'll pass

This is amazing

There is a theory connecting gauge theory and finance:

I don't think it's a crackpot theory. The basic idea is that the gauge group is the group of rescalings of the units of money, and arbitrage appears as curvature in the gauge field, i.e. you end up with a net change when you parallel-transport money around a loop in the (discrete) space of assets and time.

I hope this means I'll finally be able to remove the fixed Google search bar on my Pixel phone

Thank you for your reply. It's quite a sad situation.

Actually to be fair on BB you can override this behaviour. But you have to know...

Backblaze does not back up disk images. It's a documented limitation.

I just found this out the hard way.

Anyone know the latest on the Apple Silicon port of CCL? The new mailing list doesn't seem to have a publicly-accessible archive.

Is this actually new? See here: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-017-16621-w - discussed here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24669593

It's even been in Wild Kratts!

Looks like June 2002 for Pixel 8

It would suck

From the first photo it looks like three cottages joined together

Am I the only one who just doesn't find this very interesting? I mean it's just a coincidence that "buffalo" is a verb in American English and also a place name, as well as an animal.

I just don't think this leads anywhere interesting.

Can the title please be changed to "’Everything you’ve been told is a lie!’ Inside the wellness-to-fascism pipeline"?

Probably diversity, inclusion, and equity.

I wasn't aware of this:

  Clozure Associates is no longer a going concern, and the volunteer effort to port CCL to the M1 appears to have stalled.

Sad news if true (and I have no reason to doubt it). I had kind of assumed that an M1 version of CCL would appear as a matter of course.

NYT article referred to in the article is being discussed here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34004822

Unusual subject matter to see on HN. Thanks for posting.

You could look at the LRB (London Review of Books). While obviously it is mostly book reviews there are other essays in there too. The writing is rather literary, which may or may not be a positive, but it is entirely free of clickbait. It's probably the nearest thing to a left-wing equivalent of The Economist.

I have recently bailed too - I was subjected to multiple exit interviews when cancelling my subscription (two online and one over the phone). This certainly put me right off resubscribing at any point in the future.
