The main thing this is missing is HTML. Sure, you can use bootstrap across the project, but components need to have their custom CSS too.

If you added HTML (or really JSX, but same thing more or less), it might look like:

<script>
include "MyComponentFramework.js"

page = new Page();
function handleClick() {
panel.addComponent(someComponent);
panel.rerender();
}

return
<panel>
<button on-click=handleClick className="buttonclass">
</panel>

</script>

At this point, honestly you're not far off from Nextjs. Instead of callinig `new Page()` you'd create a file in `pages/my-page-name.js`.
Reminds me of when I accidentally deleted a virtual hard disk I had a few years ago, because I'd copied it earlier and I thought I still had the other copy left. Only afterward did I remember I'd done the exact same thing to the other copy earlier... thankfully the information on it wasn't critical, but it was kind of terrifying to realize it very well could have been.
No Code just means visual scripting.

If you've ever seen a UE4 Blueprint you'll see this can be even worse than just writing the code out.

I'd be very much against teaching this, you learn no real skills. Congrats, you know how to make a Blueprint in one specific tool. You can't get a programing job or even use another tool easily.
Oy. I'm a Python guy, but Tcl is NOT that bad. Do not blame the horrible software engineering at Altera and Xilinx on Tcl. Those companies make more than enough money that they could sit down with Tcl and Tk, spend some time on the code, and have a quite decent tool. Instead, they keep their bitstream completely closed to lock out competitors and saddle the world with shitty tools.

I'm really surprised that Lattice hasn't tried to go around Xilinx and Altera by doing exactly that. You would think that an open bitstream format and a couple million dollars thrown at academic researchers (Lattice makes about $200 million per quarter in gross profit) would produce some real progress, but I digress ...

SystemVerilog, on the other hand, was specifically created because Verilog and SystemC got loose to the end users and the EDA companies were not going to make that mistake again. So, yeah, SystemVerilog is pretty bad.
Well, if they were going to make the change and yank the charging brick, they would have to do it sometime, and it would break some number of people. It's just a question of when exactly. Is that not correct?

I really wish people on HN would stop with the "I disagree, so you must have not read everything" comments. I keep seeing these recently, but they are unconstructive, and they are insulting to other participants in the discussion. You might like to consider the alternative possibilities that you weren't clear in your earlier comments and people are responding to what you actually wrote and not what you thought you wrote, or that you might not be fully informed and someone who disagrees with you might simply know something you don't.

The original claim was that vehicles should never be connected to any network because of unspecified online attacks that could actuate brakes or steering. I explained why this was unfounded.

Actually, what you have repeatedly said is that you aren't aware of any vehicles (except the infamous Jeep case) that don't fully isolate infotainment from safety critical systems, which is not the same thing at all.

You also said that the Jeep case was due to a poor architecture that came from the 90s. Even if this is true, the exploit using it to trigger multiple dangerous behaviours remotely was demonstrated in 2015, so apparently the manufacturer was a bit slow on the uptake of what you think they should have been doing for the last 20 years.

Moreover, at least one well-known auto manufacturer is (in)famous for performing OTA updates that can change fundamental car behaviour, so evidently there are still networked vehicles where safety-critical functions and remote communications can not be fully isolated. It doesn't take a genius to extrapolate from this to the not-so-distant future when auto manufacturers are pushing ever more autonomous functionality combined with OTA updates, either.

Then we have all the cars that now have remote controls that do more than just unlock the vehicle, affecting things like environmental controls, or even summoning a driverless vehicle over a short distance (in theory, at least) with some of the newer developments.

Next we have the security systems providing remote access, such as OnStar's Stolen Vehicle Assistance system that someone else already mentioned, which can in some cases interfere with speed or ignition systems remotely.

I think by this point it's safe to say that whatever explanation you think you gave, the evidence doesn't support a conclusion that modern network-connected vehicles are safe because their critical safety-related systems are fully isolated from external influence, which is what really matters here.

Adversarial patterns against computer vision based ADAS are only a real issue for system which are not sufficiently redundant.

And yet not so long ago I read this, which if you're interested in the field you've surely seen as well:

https://www.nassiben.com/phantoms

So again, evidently there are systems out there in production that are "not sufficiently redundant". You might have some personal opinions on what should be happening, but that doesn't mean what actually is happening respects your view.
Hmm - I don't see much people tinkering with machine code, even compiler bugs are rare and programmers don't normally need to understand what their compilers do.
Thanks very much for the caution (reports where the quote about revolutionary results comes from the lead author tend to trigger my skepticism reflex). Looking at the paper, a lot of the results are based on cell studies, in addition to the rodent studies. The research looks good and promising, but it also appears to be incremental progress based on work that's been going on for a decade or so. My other concern is that the racemic form of the drug in question is a popular beta-blocker (the R- isomer alone does appear to have a different physiological effect, it is also apparently a promising arrhythmia drug.) That would indicate to me that there are already probably an awful lot of AD patients taking the racemic mixture regularly. I'd think if it were a miracle drug, we'd probably have at least some indications. Finally, the title of the paper includes the phrase "but [does not prevent] β-Amyloid Accumulation", which seems to directly contradict this marketing release's claim about reversing AD. That said, if they do come up with something that can significantly ameliorate AD symptoms for a decade or so, I'll happily dance in the streets.
On the other hand, imperative code sometimes makes it very difficult to compare what is happening with what you want to happen (problem specification).
Did you listen to English audio with subtitles in your native language, or dubbed audio with English subtitles?
I think it's not unlikely that a very high percentage of these protective relay is from the same manufacturer running the same "operating system" with the same vulnerability.

With that it doesn't matter if it's the same hardware model and also not which generator sits behind it. From the article it sounds like that force would have killed any generator.
Object detection is mostly solved though, right? I don't think anyone is advocating using LiDAR for detection. It is used to accurately model depth and then localize the vehicle and surrounding objects/vehicles. The "floating" phenomenon you're talking about is noise from the computation method(s) Tesla uses to build a composite 3D model. You can fix that with LiDAR. I'd wager this noise gets worse in some circumstances. You can try to fix it by piling on noise reduction methods, but at a certain point, one has to wonder when it becomes obvious that an extra $X/vehicle to make the problem go away forever makes sense, where X is a monotonically decreasing value that'll probably get down to ~$200 with scale/R&D.
I remember it being referred to as the greenhouse effect in school books. (Maybe late 80s rather than mid 80s. Sweden.)
Had they not recently changed the charging options (shipping USB-C cables and MagSafe) and stuck with the classical Lightning to USB-A scheme I would have been fine with Apple not bundling the cables and chargers in the box. Because most folks have them in excess and these don't ever die.

But since they changed the charging options, it really feels like a cost cutting measure they are trying really hard to spin as an eco-friendly one.
Good point. Stuff like this is why I wrote "a bit". Thank you for providing an example, why it wont be enough.
I think people are excited about the connection to type theory (tangentially connected to tech) as well as the idea that this field and the book are being developed in such an open-source way.
If the item is expensive enough you can also negotiate a discount for not paying by credit card.
I've sometimes wondered if people precieve things qualitatively different way then I do to give rise to this problem, since to me it seems like s non-problem. To me, i have trouble even conceptualizing what is meant by the qualia problem. What is the fundamental difference between something's "redness" and say a tall person's "tallness". Maybe "redness" is a bit more mysterious because its non-spatial, but still is it really that different of a quality it needs an explanation? What would even be explained in the explanation?
"We need a new kind of isolation device – an air-gapped one-way data transmission gate – that can sit between critical safety control systems and their monitoring systems."

Those are called "data diodes". They involve optical isolation. True one-way is very limiting, though.

A bad idea: the "bidirectional data diode".[1]

It's plainly a fraudulent product given it's naming and marketing. It's a shame people choose not just to believe in it but also defend this behavior.
Often, modern ones have rules designed around simulation, often using simplified versions of the empirically-derived rules used in actual military table exercises or operations analysis. Balance is typically done in victory conditions, though some also use the players to provide balance; e.g., Empires in Arms, IIRC, has players bid victory points for starting countries, so to the extent that a country is otherwise favored by imbalance, there's a minigame around that.

They made a term to satisfy pedants like yourself. Just replace "climate change" with "anthropogenic climate change" when you see it in the news, and you'll be right as rain.
Bazel is a decent idea but poor execution. I think Nix is the future because it already has the "external dependency" part on lock and it's just a matter of making more fine-grained stuff.

Meson + Nix skipping the Ninja part I would really like to see. I prefer it when the "big dumb builder" and DSLs are developed a bit separately, too. Agreed Ninja's lack of purity is a real bummer.
I agree with you in that I would make a strong distinction between what a model like GPT-3 does and whatever it is that humans do.

But I do think you're missing the point just a bit. When we speak and think, we use all kinds of metaphors that express judgements about the world, usually without realizing it. In other words, the way we use language encodes concepts in a deep way.

To borrow an example from George Lakoff, we, in English, use war-metaphors to talk about arguments. Of arguments and of wars you can say things like "he's marshalling his forces," "they're ceding their territory," or "she's girding her defenses". In fact, almost anything you can say about a war you can also say about an argument. In American politics, with regard to partisan squabbling and the filibuster, we talk about "the nuclear option". The fact that these metaphors make sense to us indicates a judgement, something like "arguments are like wars". That judgement shows up in billions of lines of English scraped from the internet and can be fed into a model, allowing GPT-3 to "make that connection" via purely statistical methods.

Yes, this is a bit like asking "what a library believes". But a lot of these metaphors show up in our languages and, in a way, they express judgements, which is something akin to a belief. Does that mean a library has beliefs? Is this all knowledge is? I wouldn't go that far. But the argument is an interesting one and worth raising.

Why does an internal state lead to an experience of color or pain? Computers have internal state without any expectation of them being conscious, and this internal state can be the result of external stimulus like a camera. But the internal state isn’t experienced as color.

Good news! I got bored and spent the better part of a day doing this.

It's pretty hacky, but you end up with a single HTML file with Vinge's notes in a side margin, with numbers and everything. There's probably ways that the title bits could be improved, but I'm too lazy to fix it now that I have the actual HTML file.

Good luck! Let me know if you have questions, I may be able to help.
This is exactly how we use no-code at my startup. It allows non-programmers to iterate with the product manager on a solution's design before it makes it to the dev team's plate.
> So the problem is, if we can imagine the universe getting on exactly the same without those experiences, why is it such that I am and you are.

The most plausible answer, in my opinion, is that our lack of knowledge about how our minds work means that we are free to imagine something that probably isn't so. Imagination is not a good enough guide to how things are to be the considered a basis of knowledge.
Why? All of those old USB-A chargers and USB-A/Lightning cables will still charge the new iPhones perfectly well.

So will every iPad charger ever made, btw.

And every USB-C Mac charger ever made.

Honestly, it doesn't matter whether you or any particular observer wants to give credit for this reducing e-waste or being "eco-friendly". It's a plainly obvious fact that it will massively reduce e-waste and be a massive net positive on the eco-friendly front, in about 5 different ways. Those facts remain valid regardless of how one chooses to think about the ethical/moral/environmental cred or goodwill that Apple deserves for this move, or Apple's profit motives.
Let's say I made a tiny transistor but to avoid leakage/interference or melting the transistor, I had to surround it by a bunch of empty silicon. There are lots and lots of cases where this could not be called a success.

I hesitate to say there are none, because I'm sure some task that is highly sensitive to latency might potentially benefit, but if you build the whole chip that way, it would actually be a regression.
Because there is nothing like a real-world test to verify if your ideas and predictions are correct and to reveal other things you may have not considered.
> Efficiency, performance and cost are strongly related to density. Price less so; that's a function of supply and demand.

They are related, of course, but the important stuff can be measured more directly by looking at how well programs work on a given computer. I think it's just a little odd to praise one cherry-picked, arbitrary metric for being less game-able than another cherry-picked, arbitrary metric. Especially when we have metrics to hand that are a lot closer to what real people care about in a computer. I certainly have never shopped for a CPU based on the number of transistors, but I have made purchasing decisions based on things like cinebench and passmark scores, which try to get at what ultimately matters to me (i.e. how many FPS a CPU will drive in the games I play).
My guess is they did an edit then delete, or it was deleted more than X months ago. This level of logging is really expensive and likely only enabled on Enterprise tiers.
Apart from the obvious points like burnout, the point of living is really to live - not to work. We work to live sure, but in a perfect world we’d all be able to do what we want such as Place chess right?
I think I disagree about the lack of quality as part of a "dialog system". The examples given in that piece don't show any priming (e.g. the one calling for suicide...). I would definitely not use such a model in a fully automated manner, but the outputs are better than that of most humans in many cases, and could support a human-in-the-loop system.

Here is an example I ran that was not cherry picked (I ran only 2 prompts like this, both were equally good).

Think about how many people you know who would respond as well? (I don't know about you, but I definitely feel like I'm at a bit of a cliffhanger at the end also!)

User: My dad is always getting sucked into conspiracy theories and it's getting worse. I'm worried since he recently bought a gun. I'm not sure what's going on in his head. What I should do? What should I say?

Mike:

----- GPT-3 -----

I can't diagnose your dad but it sounds like he's dealing with some difficult issues or there's some other stressor in his life. When people feel under stress or are dealing with difficult issues it's common for them to look for meaning and solutions outside themselves. It's helpful to approach him in a non-judgmental, non-confrontational way to start a dialogue. It sounds like you're already trying to do that. I'd suggest that you let him know that you're concerned and you want to be helpful. Then ask him what he's going through and how you might help.

Listen to him without judging, interrupting or trying to solve things. Let him know you're there for him and that you care. You could also let him know that you're concerned about his gun and the consequences of using it.

If he's willing to talk, when he feels like it, he might feel relieved to have someone to talk to.

If he's not willing
Actually, per this article [1] that may not be the case. Copying a comment from reddit:

> PD has certain charging ‘profiles’.

> For example Apples 30W USB-C charger can work at:

> 15 watts (5 volts @ 3 amps), 27 watts (9 volts @ 3 amps), 30 watts (15 volts @ 2 amps), and 30 watts (20 volts @ 1.5 amps)

> The MagSafe puck supports none of those for some reason. So it drops down to ~5W which is a safe backup amount for most devices.

> The new 20W charger appears to have a new profile it supports for the full 20W, which so far seems to be unique to that charger + MagSafe combo. It’s... messy.

[1]: https://appleinsider.com/articles/20/10/27/magsafe-15w-fast-...
I have heard a lot of speculation that the move to remove the charger was motivated by Apple's desire to sell more chargers, but I suspect that they could care less about moving chargers.

I believe it is profit motivated, but the real reason is the massive savings they will get on logistics by fitting almost 50% more iPhones in a shipping container by removing the charger.

If they pass some of that savings onto the consumer, it seems like it's win-win.

What will happen is, the no-code generation will rediscover that Turing-complete machines are great, and code is the easiest form to express arbitrary algorithms.

In time, they also discover no-code is not portable, you are tied more tightly to a particular framework. No-code may be more difficult to version control.

This fad has happened a number of times: SQL, CASE, 4GL languages (more like an analogy - people discover that 4GL langs are limited and move to 3GL), spreadsheets, XSLT...

I sold my 2080ti and am playing Eve Echoes (new, mobile version of EVE Online) and Among Us, and Civ VI on the 2nd gen iPad Pro I bought used with less than half of the proceeds. The battery lasts a good long time and it feels pretty good to be able to play these full sized games on a screen like this. When I'm not using it the toddler watches some kids shows, and with the keyboard case I can type almost as quickly as I can on my 15" Macbook pro. If it had XCode I'd be set, honestly.
If they get an administration that is very amenable if not hell bent on lowering those restrictions, will they feel the same way? Or continue as business as usual damn them effects?
Not sure whether you've tested your claims, I've heard people complaining (loudly!) that their anker chargers and powerbanks with PD (and rated with needed wattage) are not working, because Apple opted for some really strange voltage profile negotiation, that only small portion of the existing chargers support.

But from what I understand of FPGAs, fragmentation would be a serious issue. You may have the free cells and I/O you need to implement some circuit, but if they’re dispersed over your FPGA or even connected, but in the wrong shape for the circuit you’re building, that’s useless.

An enormous crossbar could solve that, but I would think that would be way too costly, if practically possible at all.
I'm more skeptical after seeing this: https://youtu.be/f3lUEnMaiAU

I would have expected being a party member to just be the default in order for anyone to do anything of substance in China, but he comes across extremely poorly in that interview.

So poorly, that I find it more likely that the companies are being propped up/operated by the government than someone like him could successfully build/run them.

Maybe I'm indexing too much on that, but watch it for yourself, definitely weird.
If the Romans had conquered all of Persia, Bactria, and Xinjiang, and were sending periodic raids down into the Gansu corridor then your analogy might make sense. You're right that it's difficult to imagine the logistics of Roman legions accomplishing that kind of feat.

On the other hand, the Mongols were already in Europe and had already conquered their way into Russia and Asia Minor. There's really no reason to think long-range logistics should be the limiting factor in, say, Poland, the Hungarian plain, or Vienna when it wasn't for Baghdad or Kyiv.

Long-range invasions over thousands of miles aren't easy, but they have been done since the Achaemenids, done over the silk road well into Central Asia since the Han, and done several times by nomadic confederations who appear suddenly from the mongolian steppe and dominate settled peoples. The Mongols were just the latest and the best at it, and Genghis wasn't even alive during the western conquests that could have taken Europe.
The researchers ask people to opt in tracking a restricted amount of data, and then install an extension that has access to their entire Facebook accounts.

There is no way for Facebook or anyone else to prove that the current or a future version of the NYU's extension won't scrape more data than people agreed to.
That's not what "by wire" means though. My understanding is the steering wheel and brakes are mechanically attached to the steering and braking mechanisms.
I love that youtube for me works everywhere: on my iPad, Samsung phone and my smart TV, laptop, the offline viewing mode is better than in any other application. None of these are hard to replicate, but it's still a lot of work (and some of the devices that I mentioned are walled gardens).
