Are medical workers even that loud a defender of the system? A lot of providers are burnt out and leaving the profession due to being overworked.

From the sound of this article, you'll only be able to pick it 7 times out of 10, unfortunately.

Right. the reason why Facebook wanted Giphy was because they can use that to track users and develop deeper profiles to better sell ads to corporations. eg User searches for "drink", and chooses from a picture of Coca Cola or Pepsi, but chooses Pepsi. Coca Cola'll pay to advertise to current Pepsi drinkers.

Except this is Google we're talking about. Expect the Waymo One app to be discontinued in favor of the Uber app, so Uber can "own" the customer service costs.

That would be an argument in favor of the airport scanners instead of metal detectors, which I'm not sure is a good direction.

I'm also not sure how many guns are ceramic.

On a per-item basis, absolutely, but what's the number of self-service checkouts at which they faster simply by having a much larger number of kiosks? Having 10 check stands open for 10 customers, each with their own employee is inefficient, but having 15 self service kiosks open isn't out of the question.

How do your want to define cooked then? cooked != tasty it just means it's no longer pink and will kill you with salmonella inside. Doesn't mean it's not dry or bland or any other implications

Yes but where does the prompt come from? I'm proposing a simple prompt/code generator to output the desired prompt. cool video tho

Do you? What if, instead the system promoted a random active user to moderator status, with a strict term limit, with the possibility of being kicked out if too unpopular. Power shouldn't be given to those who seek it, and kind of low stakes Internet forum seems like a way to thrust power unto those that aren't.

Sorry, you bought Microsoft lies hook, line, and sinker. No shame! Everybody did. That's why DR-Dos isn't with us any more.

What they said it's entirely plausible is the problem, and that's why people bought it. Even if it was true, it's on Microsoft for doing that, not DR-Dos for being incompatible. It's like how you needed to be using IE6 to browse the web, or using Microsoft Word from Microsoft Office to edit your documents.

What's really sad is how much things have shifted against Microsoft. Now it's Apple's turn on top, and people are buying that same line just as naively. iMessage this and iCloud that.

Yes, incompetent, and not due to as of yet unknown payoffs to key officials. With that much money at stake, in a far less transparent world than we live in today, briefcases full of cash worked a lot better. How would you even deposit that today without some sort of money laundering scheme?

I mean, you're looking at the future of coding with that one file. Just because you can imagine different revisions of that file leading to different personalities leading to different products doesn't change that.

In fact, what's needed is to write a bit of code to ape create-react-app, but for gpt, that'll take this repo and s/Girlfriend/Target/ everywhere.

The ultimate "level editor" was released - Unity. It's infinitely moddable and you can even sell your mods for money.

ASIOF spoiler below!

> At the Tower of Joy, Ned Stark defeated three members of the Kingsguard and discovered his dying sister, Lyanna, who made him promise to protect her son, Jon Snow, whose true parentage remained a closely guarded secret.

Seems like ChatGPT-3 already knows, unless there's a deeper secret that I'm not deep enough into ASIOF fandom to know.

Yes. Kickbacks from the publisher is why.

2^32 is 4294967296, or 4 GiB. Back before Windows ran on 64-bit machines, 4 GiB was as big a number as a standard int could represent. Updating it for 64-bit mode would mean breaking 32-bit programs, so "fixing" it isn't necessarily an upgrade.

specifically, the client and underlying wireguard is open source, but their coordination server is closed source.

Given a 2021 cutoff, I'm not surprised that rust and Nix are too new for it to do well with. I've been using it to avoid actually learning what manifest.json looks like for Chrome extensions.

One thing that helps is telling it it's wrong or missing a case or whatever. It'll type out a fix (assuming it understands, which it frequently does) faster than I can.

They're datacenter GPUs so you need special power supplies and an adapter to connect it to a regular motherboard.

I mean this is as much advertising that Intel makes GPUs and they perform "as well" as Nvidia's as it is anything else.

How small? The GPD win 3/4 is currently top of my wish list, and it'll run Linux.

The two things that help are a) if it isn't too deep, like 4 nested comment threads deep on a three day old thread, then someone may chime in while I'm away and make a similar enough point that when I come back later, I don't anything to say/add, and b) even if no one does say anything, readers aren't dumb. if I say water is wet, but someone responds, calling me an an idiot and that water isn't wet. even if no one chimes in to further respond yes it is and here's why, readers can determine for themselves and decide water is or isn't wet.

> The antidepressant effect doesn’t require full blown dissociation

I'm not sure, isn't that kind of what's being shown by this study? Or like, is there levels of disassociation that you're distinguishing between? Are you able to enumerate those levels for those of us who are unfamiliar with disassociation?

I'd argue the other direction - it's requisite to be greedy in order to be a businessman, otherwise you'd take a vow of poverty, live off charity, and give away your work for free.

It goes deeper than that, it's just easier to call out when it's a corporation as rich and large enough as HP being defended. There's a more base "blame the victim to avoid having to acknowledge something is wrong and having to do anything about it" mindset at work. If the reader blames the victim (for not reading what "HP Instant Ink" service actually is) then the reader doesn't have to do anything. After all, it's the victim's fault for not reading the contract/having infinite knowledge/wearing too short a dress. If there was anything wrong with the attacker's behavior then the reader would have to get outraged and do something, or respond with something deeply cynical, powerless and defeated.

HN isn't the source though. the two articles I can remember are sfgate.com, readership in around 30 millon/month, and ars Technica, which is a fairly popular site, though I don't have stats for them.

It's fine. Not all complaints deserve a response, some people just like complaining. The other thing is follow through is non-existent. Outside of a signed business contract, when an individual says "I'd pay if only X", assume they won't have the patience to wait for X to be implemented, and then find you again to pay you. It's far more likely they'll just deal with their problem a different way.

I'm very happy for you that you beat alcoholism. it's a nasty beast. The rest of us are facing the ladder on the right for certain issues. It's time we take a deeper look at problems people face, and actually help them fix it rather than sit back and judge them for moral failings when in reality it turns out to be a brain chemistry thing that can't be helped.

How bad are we talking about? We're a long way from the 1980's when the Soviet arsenal was some 45,000 warheads and the USAs was similar magnitude. There was a paper in Nature late last year * that noted that a nuclear exchange between the Russia and the USA, even with the far reduced arsenals under New START (1,550 warheads each), would still lead to global famine that would kill some 5 billion people.

But what if only Russia fired their missiles, 90% of them failed, and the remaining 10% exploded in their launcher? Most of those launch tubes are deep underground to protect them from first-strike by the USA, and would not release the same kind of soot as if they exploded in the air.

Even an exchange between India and Pakistan would result in almost 30 million of dead **, but again, that's using math where nuclear weapons (one-hundred 15Kt warheads) are detonated on or above ground.

I'm not remotely suggesting we try out and find out, I like not starving to death, tymv. The math, however, is interesting in a morbid curiosity sort of way.

> nuclear arsenal in Russia

Probably a minor point of note in the things to worry about column, but Russia has nuclear missile subs (as does the US). In the event that the mainland is wiped out, they exist to exact vengeance, completing the MAD circle.
