Sounds good, have fun with that.

Linking to an 8800 line claude written wall of text reinforces the parent's point.

If only the energy posting the 5 trillionth "ngmi" meme could be applied to achieving one 9 of uptime for claude

for a film interpretation of this paper: playtime by jacques tati

there's an interview with graeber about the book that covers a good deal of the book's content pretty succinctly:

for more like this, cal flyn's "islands of abandonment" is an interesting read featuring several surprising example of how ecosystems have adapted to varying levels of human destruction

Wilson Hall is the total opposite of depressing for me. Especially the interior is quite beautiful:

The art and architecture around the lab has a surprisingly rich history dating back to its first director who was also a sculptor/artist: https://history.fnal.gov/historical/art_arch/art_architectur...

not sure it's realistic to expect children to have the opsec of a tech worker

Miami Vice has acquired a pretty substantial cult following in recent years, and among the people i know who are "into" Mann, it pretty commonly ranks as their favorite as well.

For me it's still Thief (or Heat) but MV is very close

Did the Dominican Republic have to pay outrageous reparations to their former enslavers? You know, the thing this article was about?

The article is about Haitian slaves having to pay reparations to their enslavers. Nobody brought up reparations being paid to slaves except you.

They would have fared a lot better if … France didn’t saddle them with reparations for their independence … like what the entire article posted was about

Do you mean to suggest they’d be better off as slaves?

> This study was done before vaccination was widely available. Is there any indication that, for example, breakthrough infections would have a different result long term?

> Yes. We are [studying] this, but I think the jury is still out. We're certainly very interested in addressing that publicly as soon as we can.

> P.P.S. The reason you don't need algos in your day to day is because you are not good enough at algos to get a funner, better paying, more impactful job where you do

there are a comically high number of jobs at "prestigious" companies where this is absolutely not true

pretty interesting that nowhere in the article does it mention that any of these CEOs have tried, say, offering higher compensation/better benefits compared to similar remote-friendly jobs.

when i see "at their wits' end" i take that to mean "we've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas"

The article makes a pretty specific argument as to why those things are different.

What do I do when not a single candidate in any election that I can vote in has even heard of, much less taken my preferred position on, this issue?

> On-Topic: Anything that good hackers would find interesting. That includes more than hacking and startups. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity.

liberalism and marxism at the same time? impressive!

Checking pockets isn’t enough. Pitchers have been hiding the substances on their hats or gloves or other sneaky places for years. It’s not like they just bring a jar of spider tack out there with them

learning how to fall is huge. of course falling down onto asphalt/concrete always carries some risk but once you get comfortable falling safely, it's pretty unlikely you'll do any serious damage to yourself if you're not straying too far outside your limits as you learn.

it's very charitable for you to accept at face value that that's what the TSA security theater is for

how do you think they measure (roughly) how many people got the flu in previous years?

from the article:

> People occasionally conflate these shell-company reverse mergers with the current boom in special purpose acquisition companies, but they are really very different. A SPAC goes public and raises money specifically for the purpose of taking a private company public; it sells shares to the public and then has a public vote with a lot of disclosure to complete its merger. A reverse merger generally involves a public shell of a more or less defunct operating company (or at least one that pretended to have operations); the shell will be fairly closely held by a few insiders, and there will be no real money inside it. It is not a high-profile way to go public and raise money, the way a SPAC is; it’s a low-profile way to sneak into the public markets.

seems like its both?

It’s so common that within 16 hours of soliciting anonymous tips about the prevalence of it within Amazon, the intercept was able to fill an entire article with evidence of how common it is

at least a louis vuitton bag can actually hold things in it, and you can't get an identical free one by right clicking an existing one and clicking "Save image"

You’re right, that worked super well when Reagan gave it a go

so mexican people are bad because some guy wrote a book about a town where some mexican people sell drugs?

very scientific, thank you Hacker News
