I don't think UBI is a politically stable idea. It will be diluted by different initiatives to favour certain groups over others, and the actual UBI income will soon be eaten by inflation. Fast forward 10 years and the same problems wi

I think the prestige of getting the same prize as once awarded to Einstein, Curie and other of the 20th century great scientists is what makes the Nobel prize so hard to beat. Even if Gates created a prize with 10 times the prize money, the

It is what it said when I looked it up in the Swedish Academy's thesaurus. But perhaps it can differ. https://svenska.se/so/?id=102892_1&ref=kcnr419785

I have not felt that, now I don't use the word asatro often but for example in this thread I believe the room for misunderstanding is minuscule.

That is a form of historical appropriation that we should not just blindly accept. The word originates in the 1820s and the word as is much older. I for one will use it in its original meaning and encourage others to do as well.

Today, the Swedish word for their belief is asatro, where as is male deity from the era in question and tro is belief. (Female deity of same era is asynja)

I had not heard about the Merovingian period in Norway, in Sweden this period is called the Vendel period, and I looked it up, it is called differently. Apparently archeological material in Norway from this era often has a French connection

This is not a new idea. I saw it in the 90s. But obviously, sensors have become infinitely better since then.

Amazing! This unresolved memory fragment have followed me for 40 years... Edit: Found a video about it. Seems you only had 3 guesses and no hint what name you should decipher in the first place! https://youtu.be/dob4EeQa3dw?

I remember my uncle showing a PC game during this era. Larry was one he showed. Another was a game more set in a fantasy world. In it, there was a wizard or something that asked the player a riddle. My relative had to look at some printout,

Yes search engines are a good analog. Are search engines allowed to index and make copyrighted works searchable, _without_ permission from the cooyright holder? I seem to recall that Google did not get it their way with Google Books?

So we have a copyrighted work. A program reads it and somehow processes it, and does its AI thing . But in the very first step, the work is copied verbatim into the program, right? Even if it is not reproduced, is it allowed to process a co

It is the single most annoying impediment in corporate IT. And you are on your own when you need to work around the issues it causes. Is it really providing value, or is it just to feel better about security?

Add some localization features to this and you are golden. Such as find roads around where you are. People can leave comments on restaurants and bars, or hook up in new ways. Also add some rough categorizations, such as "review" o

I don't think Nix solves security concerns as well as other distributions do. It excels in most ways but this is the weakest point.

That's true. But I always thought that HN's "Who is hiring" was more informal, a kind of back door so to say.

Yes. I would not normally do it, but given the question, I thought it served a purpose.

Detecting if a cover letter is AI-generated can be challenging, especially as AI improves over time. However, here are some general tips that might help: 1. Too Perfect: If the language is too polished, without any flaws, it might be a sign

Why is it bad to testify in your own case? I have heard this from time to time but have not understood it. Is it not your chance to tell it like it is?

What I have noticed after a few years of hybrid work is that I have less strong bonds with my colleagues. I feel more lonely, more isolated. Every day I work from home is convenient and comfortable. I can sleep in, save time in commutes etc

I don't think the launch codes are what matters. It it is the fissile material. Worst case, you can build new nukes with it. Not easy, but also not impossible. I have no idea if Ukraine had a choice or not, but at the time Russia was w
