This is a REALLY great paper. I'm assuming if you took the time to look up and learn deeply about all the stuff you didn't know that you read -- you'd be extremely knowledgable about the human immune system after. It's like reading a very complex book. Take a few weeks or months to really understand and absorb it all.
So, we either go to Github, where our licenses are abused for their shitty ML.

Or we pay $20/month to Gitlab. And I can't figure out how the quotas will intersect with "professional", if at all.

For us Open Source devs, neither is a good option. Although I have heard good things about sr.ht / sourcehut. And for the service, it appears to be fair https://sourcehut.org/pricing/
That's not really solving it, that's just adjusting the point on the pricing curve. That means an increasing amount of unmet demand right?

> Epiphanies can only take you so far, before their novelty wears off and they lose the power to change your behaviour.

Funny, I've experienced the same thing with philosophy.

In my teens, I've had this existential crisis where the world just didn't make sense to me. Eventually I have discovered philosophy and started reading it, and for a while the world made sense to me. However, every epiphany I've had about the world only kept my enthusiasm up for a while - after some time I'd still know all the things I learned, but they just wouldn't seem as important as before.

The world made sense... But I just didn't like the way it made sense. That's when I realized that the problem is me, not the world, and that the problem cannot be solved by pure knowledge - there is an animal inside me which doesn't give a rat's ass about all my theories of why and how, and requires a different approach.

By itself, the TV show Seinfeld represents 66 hours of available footage, the majority featuring Jerry Seinfeld, with abundant profile footage on display due to the frequent multi-person conversations.

Moved to manager track ~2 years ago from IC, and from what I have seen, yes. Mangers typically make a bit more than the equivalent IC role. The pay bands are slightly higher, so you probably make ~5-20% more for the same "level" as a manager than you do as an IC.

I guess this is the next step to reduce costs after the brakes were put on the "let's delete old OSS repositories" leaked plan.

For comparison, I think GitHub just have a cap of 100MB on any single individual file, plus:

> We recommend repositories remain small, ideally less than 1 GB, and less than 5 GB is strongly recommended. Smaller repositories are faster to clone and easier to work with and maintain. If your repository excessively impacts our infrastructure, you might receive an email from GitHub Support asking you to take corrective action. We try to be flexible, especially with large projects that have many collaborators, and will work with you to find a resolution whenever possible.

Which is a bit wishy-washy, but sounds like there's room for discretion / exceptions to be made there rather than a hard cap at 5GB.

Reading between lines it also says it going to enforce a 10GB limit on Paid tiers.

> Namespaces on a GitLab SaaS paid tier (Premium and Ultimate) have a storage limit on their project repositories. A project’s repository has a storage quota of 10 GB.

Even it's not mentioned as a change nor in the timeline, but that limit does not exist currently.
This is why I folded and just got a well-maintained 1992 F-150. I don't need or want all the computers.
(You're talking to two different people and that quote wasn't from me. I would not go so far as to call myself an enthusiast, but I plan to use whatever life-extending things become available. IMO, nothing that currently exists is proven enough to bother with.)

I am aware that people die, and that over a longer time span more people will die.

I think the real philosophical difference here might be that there are no completely irreplaceable people in my life. There are people I like very much and will be very sad when they die. But there is nobody in the "life is literally not worth living without them around" category for me, and I don't expect there ever will be. I'll grieve, and then I'll continue. It has happened before, and it will happen many more times even within a normal human lifespan.

I do not expect this applies to everyone. My sense of meaning, to the extent I have one, is probably somewhat less dependent on interpersonal relationships than most people's.

True, but a few years ago they had a huge problem with Model3 and ModelY quality- you had to be very careful and inspect the whole car for serious problems before accepting delivery.
> Not eating a burger frequently implies an idealogical motivation?

No, but seeking out one of these plant-burgers over real meat probably does.

It might be an ideology like "I care a lot about climate change," but I think it's unusual for people to make food choices ideologically like that; especially independently, outside of something like a religious group.

I think that puts a limit on the adoption of these substitutes. The vegetarians, vegans, and some other ideologicals will quickly jump on board. After that it will get a lot harder to sell these things.
I have no issue with the term autopilot. Boeing sells planes with autopilot, no one expects them to be fully autonomous.

The FSD name makes more sense for the software they've got in public beta than their current offering. Interestingly the only difference between "enhanced autopilot" and FSD right now is the ability to stop at stop lights.
I have a Roborock S4 and I love the thing (though I want to upgrade to a mopping one at some point)

But on the S4 I find sometimes it underperforms with navigation: it ends up relying on the bumpers and it smashes into table and desk legs even though the lidar should give it a heads-up (the legs are visible on the map it creates).

I'm wondering if it updates the map as it cleans but only _uses_ the updated map once the current clean is finished. Hmmmm
If you don't want a city name being matched, then you need it inside of quotes and the - outside of those. From the examples you've given, it sounds like you might have it reversed. IE, there aren't correct

These are the correct way to indicate you do not want (the - symbol) a word or phrase (the quote symbols:

[-"berlin"]
[-"new york city"]

Unfortunately no. I don't work in the field, but I just spent a few months there networking for business, and everyone is getting into the export/import business. Even housewives are making money just buying products at the local malls and dropshipping them to Europe.

The labor is ridiculously cheap after the lira crash, raw materials for practically anything can be sourced domestically, and it's right in the neighborhood of everywhere except America and China.
>Their beef isn't great to begin with so the fake stuff might even be an improvement.

It's a big improvement (the UK recipe anyway). I love beef but get the McPlant any time I get a McDonalds burger, it's a lot nicer than their beef patties. I wish it came with the option for real cheese, although the vegan cheese they serve it with isn't bad. They just need to lower the price.
Yes.

Exactly this is happening here, and not in a rhetorical way. And the US government have, you know, guns.
Maybe you could explain what that is?
> Rust has the goal of putting as much smartness between what you type and what the compiler produces

No it doesn't. "smartness" is a means, not an end or a goal.
I worked on QRes (airline reservation system) while a contractor at ITA after it had been eaten by El Goog, but before it had been fully digested. It was really neat. It was written in Common Lisp, but that's not what made it cool other than in a superficial I-like-Lisp sense. But it was written by old Lisp wizards, and their meticulous attention to detail, including maintainability. It took just a couple of M-. in Emacs/SLIME to find what I was looking for and everything was structured clearly and easy to maintain/change.

And the testing! It came with its own testing DSL that allowed you to specify templates of expected XML results and check that the actual response from the live web service matched the template. A new test could be written in a handful of lines. The test suite was HUGE and comprehensive, and when adding a new test it was easy to find a group of similar tests to put it in. I never enjoyed writing test code as much as I did on that project, and that's how it should be for every project.
This article actually provides a framework for deciding if a productivity tool is useful, by running an experiment, or at least identifying experiments, on the advice provided to see if it works for you.

They clearly highlight as "insight porn" stuff that doesn't provide actionable advice.

At the end, they invite you to apply this new "is this useful, not useful or not even bad" decision process to their own services/products.
> I think there's your answer. That's hard to do, and software mistakes cost a lot of $$$ and time to fix. You have to go into a dealership/service area to get any updates.

Do current BEVs require frequent updates to maintain off-the-lot functionality and drive-worthiness? Like in practice, if I bought a BMW BEV and ripped out any internet connectivity / only drove around in a faraday cage, would it break after 3mo (or 3yr) unless I took it into the dealership for a software update?

>Also, the vast majority of Tesla's customers are attracted to the idea that their car will continuously update itself and get better over time.

Yes, I think this is a selling point too. However it need not be a requirement for all BEVs. If switching to this model is prohibitive then it shouldn't be a roadblock.
Enabling early-stage startups to quickly hire pre-vetted remote developers
devconn.io is a platform where early-stage startup founders can very quickly, and at competitive prices, hire pre-vetted remote developers from abroad.

We’re the first developer recruiting platform that assesses and classifies every skill of every developer, making it very easy for our customers to find someone that exactly meets their needs.

It should take no more than 48 hours to go from creating an account at devconn.io to having a perfect-fit developer actually writing code for your business.
> Isn’t the whole point of it being decentralized to make it unsanctionable?

Why would this be expected? Cash is decentralized. That didn't prevent countries from sanctioning things.
Codifying privacy as a right is not in the interest of corporations. I am extremely sceptical that the US government will harm corporations for something most people obviously don’t care about. The success of Facebook, Tictoc, Nest, etc are definitive proof that most people do not care about their privacy at all.
I find remarks like GP useful, to put into perspective just how mind-boggingly unfair life is. This is a different frame of thinking ("headspace") than a self-improvement seeker is in, which explains the downvotes and the "boo"ing.

Imagine a civil engineer walks into the office and asks a colleague about the plans for the new housing project, and the colleague replies that the concept of a "house" is a rich and socially constructed idea that both reflects and influnces the social zeitgeist in subtle ways and is intimately tied to notions of community and private property. They are not wrong, and the civil engineer would probably learn new things if they let the colleague finish instead of laughing them off or firing them, it's just that there is this implicit shared context in the workplace, that "house" is not a subtle idea and our job is to plan and build them not talk about their history or philosophy, that the colleague is violating or ignoring.

This is a useful analogy to understand why a remark like GP's, very useful and very true and would drive you into despairing madness and perhaps the brink of suicide if you think about it honestly and deeply, is not welcome in a thread like this. There is an implicit context in the comment section (formed haphazardly in a distributed non-explicit way, unlike that of the analogy) that you have a bunch of latent opportunities that you can take for granted and build off them to new frontiers, and that those opportunities are more or less a "critical mass", you can make them into whatever outcome you want given a fair amount of work. This is non-trivial for a huge portion of humans, and yet the self-help context always assumes it without proof, and any pushback is interpreted as doomer nay-saying or unhelpful pedantry.
> there is going to be a significant generation gap in intelligence

Have you thought about the obvious implication that embryo selection with polygenic scoring could be used to lower the gap between genetically privileged types of people you describe and the average couple deciding to apply to procedure?

What's needed: an egalitarian policy & infrastructure allowing any couple to improve the genetic basis of their progeny, perhaps with more of it being provided to genetically disprivileged.

We have an obligation to provide our children and the whole society with an opportunity to live a better life.

> and that will have unpredictable consequences in education and the labor market

The "gap" of single digit amount of IQ points added won't have such effect, but over generations it can compound into a more thoughtful, creative, capable and lively humanity.

Should we deprive ourselves of such possibility due to a generic NIMBY-like market anxiety?

It would be lovely if anyone other than NVidia made GPUs useable for GPGPU. I started with Radeon for the open-source factor, but it turned out to be useless in virtually every respect. I bought an NVidia card.

I'm now tied to CUDA, but I didn't need to be. I was starting from scratch.

The longer before AMD can ship something which actually works, the more entrenched NVidia+CUDA become.

At this point, I lost hope.
Recursive “How to get your blog post on the front page of HN”
I was too frustrated by the insistence on libre purity by the main Guix channels, even if I think it is superior software, so I switched to Nix (and actually went fully NixOS after a month or so).

I had R package compilation issues on 4.2 as well, but I also had them on my Windows work machine. I'll try to test things out and see if I can figure out if it's still an issue.
I doubt these will take off unless climate- or politically driven migration slows, which seems unlikely in either case, or we stumble across a fountain of cheap energy. A lot of farm work in the US is performed by undocumented immigrants paid incredibly low wages and too often treated incredibly badly. I don't see the cost of robots coming down much if supply chain instability and energy scarcity continue. (This is not to say it wouldn't be better to use robots, or pay people a good wage and provide good working conditions.)

Plus, a lot of work in precision agriculture is overhyped and oversold. I worked in the space for a couple years and things like automated, AI/ML-powered high-throughput phenotyping are described as breakthrough technologies which will revolutionize agriculture and synthetic biology. More accurately they are relatively narrow-scoped tools which, while useful in many cases, are more often bandwagons people jump on for career progression.
Rusts entire trait model is a pretty big deal.
The main issue is with memory semantics however, stuff like tagged 64bit pointers are UB land pretty much immediately.
MiniRust solves this by providing an explicit memory interface trait.
Am I reading it right that the original Free Tier had a quota of 45,000GB? That seems absurdly high and not very sustainable (hence the change I assume).
I think a lot of wealthy people will throw money at genetic snake oil.

Traits are determined by multiple genes (e.g. eye or hair colour), and single genes control multiple traits (e.g. EDAR gene which is associated with thick hair, small breasts, and shovel-shaped incisors).

Sometimes genes for less desirable traits (e.g. mental illness, sickle cell anemia) may be associated with desirable traits (higher intelligence, resistence to malaria).
> Are you working for a U.S. company?

No.

> I'd love to travel and work but I work for a U.S. employer and need to keep a U.S. address, which is an expensive requirement if one doesn't already own property!

How much of a resident do you have to be in the U.S.?
Just an address you can receive mail at: https://www.postscanmail.com/. They have a ton of locations, if you want no state income tax + high CoL (for employers doing adjustments): Seattle.
Note there's some issues with using these types of addresses (specifically those designated as Commercial Mail Receiving Agencies by the USPS) with some banks and credit card issuers. Probably your employer would be fine with this.

Played a game as a service. Spent over $2,000 in it over the course of about 4 years. The game lost its IP rights, and shut down pretty unexpectedly.

Did losing access to the game suck? Yeah. But if you take the time I spent playing the game over my account lifespan, I spent less than $1 an hour for pretty quality entertainment. It's not a fraud, and one of my cheaper hobbies.
This change is one of the only MRs about these new limits discussed in the open.
