I don't think it's a race in any direction. There's just a trade-off of sorts between principles and rules. Law works based on rules and so does sports. Not everything is quite that clear-cut, but I think a trade-off is always there. Sometimes one is more appropriate than another.
Ask HN: Who is the best tech reporter of our time?
Huh. Just went and read a review.

Not for everyday use, of course. Network connectivity (and application support) are nonstarters. But that shell interface does look <ahem> inspired.
I believe it's just China and Germany.
What platform? GUI or shell?

Docker/LXD or a dev VM lets you access both simultaneously. Or create a separate user, but not as secure or convenient.

Wow, I had the same idea a while back and thought about writing some kind of engine which does this - but I didn't even begin to research whether someone already did something similar.

Now I see this on HN :)

It seems to be exactly what you propose, a 4D world rendered into 3D space. It even has a kind of "stereo" mode, enabling a 3D experience on a 2D moniter.

And to expand on the idea: Once we become familiar with 4D, we can continue and use it to explore 5D, can't we?
Since morals vary by social norms and culture, I'm not sure that's a great definition of unethical in the context of journalistic integrity.

Amazon does not actually operate any data centres in China. They contract it out, or license their brand name, I am not sure exactly which. I believe to avoid legally squiggliness between Chinese law and laws elsewhere.

This causes a lot of annoyances -- lots of features are not available in Chinese "AWS" regions, or they require special treatment. When I've gotten reports about slow, incomplete or stalled downloads from CloudFront it is almost always someone who's inside the Great Firewall.

I guess GCP decided not to bother with that approach for now.
Design Tokens for dummies
we had some good success with it, and it ended up spun out to its own project later: https://squashreports.com

where it excelled was in keeping tangentially connected teams up to date with each other, since each team tended to have closer lines of communication - it helped for the overall direction.

where it didn't help was to replace a standup directly.
Exactly my point for the most part.

The fact that you basically had to provide a ELI5 here on HN for this, shows what a dismal job we, as an industry, have done to educate the larger world as to the best-practice of cloud selection should be.

We, on HN, for the most part, can spout off this tribal-domain knowledge because we live it most days.

But what would be great is to have these types of nuggest of information, empiracally delineated, available without effort to those who would like to know.

Specifically, in a way format/method where you don't need to have the lexicon to be able to formulate the proper question.

Most people, even those IT people who may work for a tiny office who has very little need for anything "at scale" may not be able to ask the questions.

An analogy could be (?): "everyone knows if they need a bike, motorcycle, car, truck or bus - and everyone should be able to assess their basic computing needs as well. It should be fairly clear if you need a single machine in an office, a colo or a cloud - and figuring out a path to doing so and selecting a vendor should be a straightforward task."

> (I think '{' and '}' to indicate whether to go to the previous mail or the next mail. A 'd' to go to next mail and a 'D' to go to previous email would have been a lot more intuitive)

It's "j" for next conversation, "k" for previous - comes from hjkl, vim (and older [0]) keyboard navigation. Then "n" for next and "p" for previous, for emails within the same conversation.

Thing is, just like vim, these are supposed to become short-circuited so when in the right context, you don't think of the letters anymore. It's not "that key is j, which is up", it becomes "that key is up". It's the same newbie discovery vs power-user productivity problem described in the post.

What is interesting is that given that I read HN for both knowledge and entertainment the edit didn't even matter. The story was still interesting even if the facts were off.
Some of the most important reporting simply wouldn't happen without off-the-record conversations. Without protection for sources, very few people will have the confidence to blow the whistle on wrongdoing. Without a steady stream of confidential leaks, most political reporters would be completely blind as to the inner workings of government. Without off-the-record reporting, most corporate scandals would never be revealed.

Hm, skimming it this looks promising, but the last post was a while ago. I wonder if real life got in the way or if the series is abandoned. Either way I'm favoriting this to look at later as I'm planning to do exactly this, and seeing someone do it in rust for reference will be incredibly useful.
Just guessing here, but while you could probably fit something the size of a Cessna 152 into a container, and the shipping would probably be cheap, you'd have to remove the wings and put them lengthwise. My guess is that the cost of doing that, and reattaching them and verifying airworthiness isn't worth it compared to just flying it over.
“Fortnite” saying no to Google's app store could be a great precedent
Thanks for the detailed comment. Many law firms and in-house counsel are now using AI systems for a variety of tasks, eg m&a doc review. There are review systems that can be focused on providing a risk review for a single document, so it’s not always a scale play. There are about 8 branches of legal AI in use at present in the US and UK, from litigation prediction to some quite advanced expert (rules based) systems.
Clients are pushing back on process work and also looking to law firms and AI providers to give greater insight into their contract stack. As a wise person once said: a business is the sum of its contracts, and NLP\ML systems can provide great insight here, not just cost savings.
Hope that helps.
P.s. the idea that legal costs only increase because clients value the work more is a red herring. The legal market is not truly a market as the buyers at a corporate level are other lawyers who are spending other people’s money (that of the shareholders). But, your defence of the status quo is to be expected by someone who benefits from it being that way.
To first order you can just use the ideal gas law to calculate the average velocity (v_rms = sqrt(3Tk_b/m)) of pick-a-molecule and compare it to the escape velocity (v_e = sqrt(2GM/r)
I disagree. The article notes several times that a source requiring broad anonymity should be viewed with skepticism. The implication is that the source my have ulterior motives, and the journalist has a duty to determine the story’s veracity.

However, not all sources require anonimity simply to spread disinformation. Some of our most culturally significant news stories have spawned from sources requiring extreme anonimity. In these cases it is up to the journalist to corroborate the information.
Ask HN: How to Find Contracts in Computer Vision, AI?
Hey HN,

Me and some buddies have been working on a computer vision / AI software startup for some time. We've developed some really neat product prototypes, but decided that what really interests us is actually taking on contract work in the field. Quite the opposite of much of HN I'd imagine!

So basically we're a small team of engineers and entrepreneurs with a portfolio looking for CV/AI contracts - probably remote work within North America, but willing to travel and consult/work on-site for larger projects.

How would we go about finding contract or consulting work in our field? Some ideas:

- Reaching out to relevant job postings online, but reply as a contract company
- Present tech we've worked on at meetups/conferences in the field
- Spend a bit of money on social media advertisements
- Try something like Upwork (though it looks like low wages)

What's worked for you getting started similar situations? What would you recommend we try?

Thanks!
How is that a “bullshit policy”?
GitLab is VC backed, so they have to be looking for an exit/liquidity event, it’s inescapable. Google, Atlassian (roll it into Bitbucket) or Oracle, has to be one of them.
For the most part, the only variance comes from non-native (usually electron) apps. Keyboard navigation in text fields is perfectly consistent between native Cocoa apps because there it’s implemented at the toolkit level so devs get it for “free”. If some cross platform app doesn’t follow suite it’s because their developers took the easy way out and ignored platform conventions.

China isn't under any embargo that would apply to AWS. Amazon do this to comply with China, not the US.
I find the article is badly written. Being a lawyer, a coder and interested in Legal Tech, I still find it hard to read or unterstand some sentences/sections. The author also falls short of mentioning any specific workflows that could be automated (which there are many) or any specific programs or companies that are really changing the legal landscape (which there are not many).

From my experience real AI Legal Tech is yet rarely used (at least in the European legal market). And I have yet to see a company I trust that will change that soon.
In the NYTimes, off the record usually means a government official strategically "leaking" information following the government line, being granted anonymity by the paper because (?).
Certainly I use a lot more software products by a lot more diverse sources that all have a lot more accountability to the consumer. This, at least, is a positive trend. One of the few good parts of the commerical software movement is more accountability and higher minimum standards for the consumer. I think that shows in trends in modern computer adoption.
To go beyond generic Wiki syntax, SGML lets you define context-specific token replacement rules. For example, to make SGML format a simplistic markdown fragment into HTML, you could use an SGML prolog like this:

<!DOCTYPE p [
<!ELEMENT p - - ANY>
<!ELEMENT em - - (#PCDATA)>
<!ENTITY start-em '<em>'>
<!ENTITY end-em '</em>'>
<!SHORTREF in-p '*' start-em>
<!SHORTREF in-em '*' end-em>
<!USEMAP in-p p>
<!USEMAP in-em em>
]>
<p>The following text:
*this*
will be put into EM
element tags</p>
>The reality is that nearly all sources, on or off the record, have an agenda.

Sure, but that must be extended to the fact that in reality also the reporter, the editor, the newspaper/TV director often have their own agenda as well.

It should provide adequate information as R&C 2016 is using cartoonish stylized pbr and many concepts/methods are common among different engines.

Re. Overstating use, far from it. This piece is from 2017, since then adoption of NLP/ML systems has rapidly grown among the leading law firms eg AmLaw 100 and UK 100. Even excluding ediscovery systems the use of AI Tech for review work has hugely increased - sufficient to keep a daily blog going just to keep up with all that is happening. Don’t get complacent. Things among larger firms are starting to change.

The new 7nm Rome is expected to exclusively use TSMC, but this won't affect that production. Samsung and Nvidia would be the most affected, but apparently most of TSMC's facilities are already back up with the remaining to be up by tomorrow. So less than 2 days lost production probably will not significantly affect anyone. It's a good thing this wasn't a targeted attack with a payload to damage hardware and put them out for weeks or more. That would have serious repercussions.
I don't know what part of my comment you were trying to address then.
Most of the time, when spoken by those in power, it is a lie, and it really means "I'm trying to be deceptive".

Most of the time, when requested by those with vulnerability, it is the gateway to critical, but potentially highly dangerous information, and a request for protection.
when nature gets into the bullying game, you know the scientists are neither reputable nor honest

the idea that nature would call mathematicians names is quite amazing, this is the last group of motherfuckers I thought would disparage the reputation of mathematicians

this is proof that nature is nothing but schoolyard bullies that know nothing and are willing to pick on people who study simply for the fact that they study

nature has demonstrated a hatred of mathematicians

nature has demonstrated an arrogant attitude toward mathematicians

nature has demonstrated a willingness to belittle and denigrate the work of mathematicians as

> the activities of autistic people

as if the mathematicians were the umpa-lumpas and nature were Willy Wonka's chocolate factory

the arrogant and dismissive attitude of the scientists toward the mathematicians shows that the scientists do not respect mathematics

I thought they would have had more professional courtesy.

Apparently not.
Correct.

Explaining that to muggles, though, is non-trivial.
For your question about 3D being hard coded or learned, I think I remember reading that it’s learned.

This is an old philosophy debate about wheather if I blind person could suddenly see if they’d understand that a sphere is round just by looking at it.

When some people that had had cataracts for 50 years were treated they not only couldn’t tell that a sphere was round, they couldn’t understand shadows or depth of field/distance. They thought shadows on people were black splotches and when something was moving away that it was actually getting smaller.

When they were talking about moving off cloud altogether, they mentioned that the reason they were on Azure in the first place was that they were given a pile of free credits.

I think the "one company" media in the US has lost authoritativity and credibility with anyone who thinks.

The media makes its money by keeping sheep as sheep, and leading them to the shearers or the slaughter. If it taught critical thought then someone who knows what a free market is would strongly oppose the single-source for news, and that monopoly would end. They would not make as much money with paid workers as they do with slaves - intellectually and cognitively speaking. Junk journalism would get junk revenue, not top billing.
The wikipedia community disagreed with you there. The consensus was in favor of sending this to the arbitration committee, with the topic ban being a temporary first fix. And it did go to arbcom, and arbcom did take action.

On the one hand, JzG is obviously not your yes-man; this particular person has a mind of their own and presented the case from their own perspective. That said -on balance- their behavior came out in your favor. (as is abundantly clear now that we have 20/20 hindsight)

Kalholmann was given every opportunity to set/correct the record from their own perspective, but they just didn't take it. Hence my dissapointment.

You and I are working with the same set of evidence. I guess the main difference (if even that) is that I'm not just reading the partial account on your site, but I am also reading directly from the primary source including the bits that your team have left out.

Obviously our interpretation differs. ;-)

I guess only you yourself can know whether you are deliberately spinning things; or whether you are genuinely personally convinced by the narrative that you present.

This is related to DWIM (Do What I Mean) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DWIM

It seems like DWIM features gained popularity from the 60s to the 80s, but more recent systems avoid it in favour of explicit (although sometimes cryptic) error messages ("weak types", like `==` in PHP and Javascript, are a remaining example of DWIM).

This might be connected to the rise of GUIs: more "general user" software became GUI driven, or menu driven, rather than using a free-form input language. That reduced the need for DWIM as a way to help new/casual users. It also meant that the CLI software that remained was generally more powerful, and therefore more dangerous (e.g. bash rather than zork), in which case there's a higher chance for a DWIM system to cause problems.

If about half of these visits to NYT are daily users and the rest were once a month then they would have a reach of about 180 million/month. I would say that is a low estimate since I end up on their site once or so a month and most people I talk to (outside the US) make references to their site that imply similar usage internationally.

I'm not sure how frequent this "pewdiepie" releases videos from that youtube link, but if it were once a week then he(?) has a reach of 20 million/month if he has no permanent fans. That seems like a high estimate given that some percentage of the 60 million channel subscribers must look at most videos.
