If you want to get starting building with AI right away, I'd recommend getting an OpenAI key and playing with prompts in a tool like Everyprompt. Start asking it whatever you can think of, click Deploy to make an API out of it, then try building apps based on that.

You can then try running Stable Diffusion and using that in your apps too.

These other answers, while well meaning, are for building models and not for practically working with AI. They're like being given resources on how compilers work when someone asked how to write "Hello World."

Once you get that magic feeling of having something working, you can always dig into all of the research, like https://course.fast.ai, later.
> He _hated_ working for Google and left as soon as his shares vested. That was my first experience with someone simply rejecting a fat paycheck because _Google_ was to buttoned down for them.

It's easier to reject a fat paycheck after your shares vest, I imagine.
Policy #0: Never admit a mistake.
Hard disagree. The whole point of the rule of law is that elected officials are not supposed to be special, they have to follow the same rules as everybody else. If I'd get banned for a tweet, an elected official should also get banned for the same tweet. Your proposal means creating a caste system where special people get more free speech than the rest of us.
> The OpenWRT build system is very nice and easy

In general I agree, it is pretty nice. The thing I'm struggling with right now is getting kernel config right as I'm attempting to do a build with 6.0 but the configs from OpenWRT-5.15 do not work directly with that (or I'm doing something wrong...). The difficulty is that the kernel config seems to be done in layers in a way, assembling and the merging the final config from different sources and its not completely obvious where to poke to make it work. I don't think its insurmountable, but just takes some effort to figure out the build system etc. Especially as I'm trying to do things the "right" way instead of just trying to patch up something bootable.
What a weird non-article. No "how", just "yeah, we check for known bad files, and AI magic"
That's not quite how pressure from advertisers work. Ads can't provide ROI if people aren't looking at them, and turning Twitter into a hellscape a la Truth Social/Parler/Gab/etc. is a surefire way to drive away users, which drives away advertisers. They also don't want their ads to be shown next to that kind of content, which will further pressure Musk to bolster content moderation.
This is not the kind of discourse anyone wants to see on HN.
Roma “treatments” are fascinating, in a very positive way (sadly in europe you need to mention this, as roma are very discriminated against). I knew of one where they do a trick with lit matches at door corners that “treats” mild colds and “curses”. Wondering if this wizardry originates from india, given their history [0][1], or they picked it up on the way to europe but i really wish there was a book on these practices and their origins. I am almost certain these involve psychology, somehow, but cant prove it.

Google+ wasn't their first attempt. That was Google Buzz.

But the issue is: you have to get a critical mass of users. Some dedicated groups and then it has to get to a scale which is relevant for Google ...

They are allowed to do it because it benefits "law enforcement". See my other comment.
Lmao, no. Neutrality means that twitter won't delete your vile tweet.

I'll absolutely screenshot it and report it to your employer, should it be truly heinous behavior that would make your coworkers uncomfortable.
Source? Surprisingly hard to find in quick search - drowned by fluff articles.
Don't know for sure, have never tried. But I'd guess it'd be very distracting, too many new things to look at.

I suppose, but as someone in infrastructure I have had developers ask very, very specific questions without ever actually providing the context or what they were actually trying to solve. Seems to me to be a variation on the same problem. Just because a question is specific doesn't mean it's the right question.

From the software engineering side, it's still an opportunity to work on one of the highest traffic web sites on the internet. There's not a massive number of opportunities to do that.
I dont see any HDD shortages lately
I'm surprised because I thought there was a passionate but healthy debate about the matter, unlike what you'd see on Twitter or Reddit. A lot of opinions were expressed but I didn't see anybody calling out names, using epithets, shutting people down, etc.

HN's treatment of controversial topics generally is more respectful than elsewhere, which is why it is disappointing to see them shut down or buried here, when much more toxic discussions get promoted on other sites.
Elected officials in America at least are just normal people, the rules apply to them just the same as anybody else. The idea of giving elected officials special exemptions ought to be odious to anyone who considers themself to have American values. I mean it is a private company, so they can implement this sort of thing, but we should be clear that having a special rules for the political class is utterly unamerican in spirit.

Not a game, but the writer of this post (Bret Devereaux) has a two-part post on trench warfare in World War I, starting with https://acoup.blog/2021/09/17/collections-no-mans-land-part-....

A brief summary:

“What I want to focus on here is the disconnect between the popular conception of how trench warfare actually worked and the actual conditions that produced trench warfare. This week, we’re going to look at the problem: both the popular perception of what the problem is and what the actual problem of trench warfare is. This is both to set the groundwork for the next post, which will discuss the ways that this stalemate was and wasn’t broken, but it also serves to handily dismiss some of the ‘easy’ solutions that are often offered which don’t solve the actual problem but merely solve the imaginary one.”

I highly doubt it. Bribery is baked into the culture. Everyone takes bribes, and the act of solicitation does not have the negative connotations or legal ramifications that it would have elsewhere. Most Indian people who pay regular bribes are on friendly terms with the people they pay bribes to.

Also, political parties are mostly funded by bribery, and rely on literally buying the votes of villagers to maintain power. Any political entity with the power to actually tackle corruption would have little incentive to do so.

I think the point is that while right now, 'unfair' things might happen, perhaps they will become even more uneven in the future, as he exerts more personal sway into what's ok and what's not, rather than attempting to stick to some guidelines.
amusing, another comment called it spaceex
Nothing in the article implies what you suggest.

There is plenty of legal porn imagery and legal non porn imagery and legal child imagery and legal adult imagery. It's not so hard to make your system detect if an image is similar to both porn and child.
Also Jimmy Swaggart's cousin and friend.
Had a similar scenario, where we had to deploy a new search feature in our product. This required a large and complex DB migration and backfill. We resorted to cloning our prod DB to our staging env, and thus where able to test our migration scripts, review the search feature's performance on the real data, verify the release plan and the downtime needed, and even run a few load tests. I cannot see how we could have done this without a staging env.
"They ban most actual right-wing sources. What's left is crap like Fox news."

What do you consider an "actual right-wing source" if not Fox News?
Because either of those are chump change to an entire family dying in a blaze of fire, maybe?
> I predict that he will succeed in turning Twitter into the rightwing safehaven that "Truth" Social, Parlor, etc have all been trying to become.

I actually don't think so, I think this was bluster, or if they are safe haven it will be safe in the way that a subreddit is safe. You can freely talk amongst eachother but that content won't be promoted to people who don't want to see it.

I mean this was his latest tweet: https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1586059953311137792?cxt=...

My prediction is he ends up growing twitter into a fairly bland chat/communications app/social network, and the focus on global political and social debates slowly weans over time.
Is it wrong that I wish this were true? Think of the new physics necessary to explain it, and how much fun being magnetic would be.

Of course any senior dev can. Isn’t being able to design Twitter a prerequisite to passing a System Design interview at any BigTech company?

Edit: I was being sarcastic. I meant to add /s
This is how, straight from the article:

> According to a 27-page research document, Twitter found a “statistically significant difference favouring the political right wing” in all the countries except Germany. Under the research, a value of 0% meant tweets reached the same number of users on the algorithm-tailored timeline as on its chronological counterpart, whereas a value of 100% meant tweets achieved double the reach.

There are crazy left-wing sources that are also banned, are you going to use that as "proof" that Twitter is biased against the left? You're cherrypicking.
>targeting conservative voices solely based on ideology.

Clearly happening, yet even here already we have four people so far claiming that it doesn't, and people flagging/downvoting you for telling the truth.

They banned a conservative satire publication ffs. The Babylon Bee.

"The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command."

Even if that is true—and it isn’t—a platform is under no obligation allow it, and most don’t (including HN).
I don't know what you mean by the multiple organizations thing – this seems to be squarely in the realm of trust and safety. And while I understand the frustration in contacting a human sometimes, in this case it seems that a human will have reviewed the content and come to the conclusion based on their training, expert opinions, policies, etc (as per the article).

What can human contact add here? Excuses or reasoning for the content? Given the media attention, someone will almost certainly have reached out if there was any way that a reason or excuse could possibly change the outcome. If they didn't that implies again that there's more to this story.

I'm not going to pass any judgement on what the "more to the story" is here, I don't have all the facts, but it seems obvious to me that there are more facts, and that people are working from different amounts of information here.
The cars and panels aren't looking great, but Tesla battery business is good for now though, I think.
They aren't comparable in any meaningful way. They have quite different classes of problems, not to mention the scale of Twitter completely dwarfs that of Wikipedia.
I live in Phoenix and a lot of people have been turned off on solar in general for their home because a lot of the companies are aggressive and shady. Seems like a missed opportunity for Tesla to have stepped in to be a "reliable" solar company simply by pricing competitively and not going out of business a year after installation.
If I was working at Twitter right now I would be looking for a different job, regardless of what I think of Elon's politics/motives. The talk of layoffs and major policy changes creates massive uncertainty and I don't think I'd risk sticking out the transition. I bet many inside the company feel the same.

This begs the question:

If there is a major exodus, will it even matter? And, if it does, how will the problems manifest? Reduced reliability? Slower feature velocity? Less innovation?
I would be really surprised if this remains privately-held for very long. It's a LOT of capital (and a lot of it borrowed) so my guess would be that he has an eye on Zuckerberging it (issuing himself a class shares with all the votes, but marketing another class of shares without them).
Sounds like it's a perfect case where "probably" is not enough.
Setting people's houses on fire is in fact a large problem. Potentially setting houses on fire is also a problem, but it is "relatively smaller" than the liability of actually injuring or killing someone, or hundreds of people.

Melting connectors is not all that uncommon of an issue with shoddy electronics. Well designed hardware rarely has this problem, but if you buy enough no-name import junk, you'll probably run into this with other products. (I have) Most of the time it does not cause a fire.

This isn't okay, but it also isn't Surfside condo collapse levels of bad.
a simple example: people who get mocked for being bald don't typically get killed for their baldness. People who get mocked for being trans ARE FREQUENTLY killed for their transness. We don't need to protect bald people from mocking, because the consequences are minimal. We need to protect trans people from mocking because the consequences are _maximal_.

trans people are an endangered (in the most literal sense) minority that is not doing anything to hurt others and yet is frequently targeted for many heinous things. Thus, they are special and need our protection.
I wasn't, I was just providing the numbers that GP asked for.
I imagine that killing half the planet is enough to send the "lucky" half into chaos and collapse.
Still the best smartwatch IMO. Battery on the OG and 2 would last ~1 week due to the e-ink/paper display. Meanwhile, the Apple Watch and Droid equivalents the battery would last ~1 day.
In other bee-related, but different type, news today:

"Honeybee Swarms Can Produce as Much Electric Charge as a Storm Cloud" https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/honeybee-swarms-ca...

Note: Title is incorrect. They're actually talking in terms of charge density.

"As far as electricity generation goes, a bee swarm’s charge isn’t too impressive: It would take about 50 billion bees to power an LED light, Popular Science reports. But compared to the charges produced by common weather events, the bees’ charge density was six times greater than an electrified dust storm and eight times greater than a thunderstorm cloud."

When you put it that way, it is extremely disturbing to think that, statistically speaking, the largest consumer of child abuse material in the world might very well be Google (and/or Apple, for their version of the tech).
An honest mistake is different from an informed decision.

The consequences are not small, and the action was apparently fully informed. Those two things combined constitute a very Big Deal deserving no forgiveness at all.
It might happen when rich countries start imposing tariffs on cargo ships using bunker fuel. Burning that stuff is utterly terrible but it's cheap so hey.
Thanks for letting me know about the quote rule! While "pernicious" is IMO overdramatized, avoiding that shorthand is a sensible-enough community practice for a venue where people often skim and get heated about things; I won't repeat it.

I still think you're reading a lot into this thread that is not there, and ratcheting this up to the level of accusations of dishonesty is a pretty interesting/illuminating choice. However, I don't actually have a dog in the fight; consider all points ceded.
Half the households in Iran have an illegal satellite dish on the roof to receive disallowed TV from abroad.

This is punishable and does get punished (rarely, I hear). Doesn't deter anyone.

Edit: it will also be quite difficult to detect electronically, judging by the fact that even Russia fails to jam these signals on the battlefield.
It's a little of both. If I can do something with CSS, like animation, I'll take that over trying to do something custom with javascript. It's a perform

But it also feels great when you can cleverly replace a piece of javascript with a CSS effect.
I'm confused, this would also be true with the GPL, no (just with the added restriction they would have to redistribute their changes)?

My understanding is the point of free software is that you can do (almost) anything you want with it, including sell it.
As I understand it, the financing is

$13 billion in money from banks as a loan
~$4 billion in pre-owned Twitter stock (he doesn't have to pay himself)
~$7-8 billion in commitments from other investors (Ellison, a16z, the Bitnance CEO etc.)
~$8-10 billion in TSLA stock he sold in like May when he announced the purchase at $900-$1000/share when he said it was specifically to buy TWTR
~$1 billion in a major investor (I don't recall whether it was a specific Saudi businessman or the Saudi investment fund or the royal family directly) asking to keep his ownership of the company and trade out the shares for teh new compnay shares

That still leaves ~$9-11 billion unaccounted for in a very public fashion. At one point, Merrill had promised him a $12.5 billion margin loan backed by his Tesla shares. He claimed not to need it (and removed it from being a contingency on the deal a while ago). Or maybe he secretly used it. It's less than 5% of his net worth, so it seems reasonable to assume he can get or borrow it easily.
"I have an inner hatred for that hell site"

I remember that banning campaign as part of why Telegram got popular for ISIS.
There are possible legal reasons they wouldn't reverse an account ban of this sort. There are also several instances of Google employees or their spouses being banned and AFAIK none have led to any criminal charges - e.g. https://twitter.com/miguelytob/status/1315749803041619981 (not sure if this one was for csam or not - but IIRC some were).

Police salivate over cases like this - until they decide to prosecute, it seems obvious that Google is in the wrong here.
That's what I did, basically. I forced myself to work on low end machines because there might be a chance my website system also runs in a browser on a low end machine. My website with this blogpost is holding up perfectly fine by the way, even with all HN visitors, peaking at almost 2 visits each second for some hours. Also credits to my webhost!
There's no such thing as spot reduction: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spot_reduction

Seems I was wrong about him being CEO. Still, he owns the place helped in part to the bank lenders he will need to repay. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twitter,_Inc.

He got rid of the last CEO and will presumably either take the position himself or put his own guy in the chair
They spend lots and lots of money to make sure this doesn't happen. It's more or less why the entire right wing legal movement (Federalist Society et al) exists.
On top of that, historically internet forums have required fairly strict moderation to remain civil for any significant amount of time. Without that, one quickly ends up with an incredibly unpleasant space that repels more people than it attracts.
I understand that he has been publicly combative with all the executives; but is it a practical to fire all those key executives right away?

Specially, do they not contain any specifically useful knowledge or experience that you should make an attempt at creating a collaborative transition?

Is this how these kinds of acquisitions of public companies happen? Isn’t this effectively freezing all significant activities for a significant ramp up time?
>You've made the same comment several times.

Are you sure you don't have me confused with someone else? I don't see any multiple comments in my history unless you've gone back over 3 months ago. If that's what you're referring to, I have no problem with it, but it just seemed odd.

>Why are you switching to the passive voice? Are you saying this or not.

Passive voice is a perfectly valid style not a mistake, and I'll take that fight to the death. The sentence indicates not just my own skepticism, but also the sense I get from other people on HN and real life where the prevailing opinion seems skeptical.

>Not really. The price of a basket of goods, over time. Same as it's always been. As as already mentioned, GDP takes into account these numbers.

Boy I have a lot of issues with that. It's NOT the same basket of goods. I don't personally agree with many of the substitutions, nor the exclusion of ownership in housing. There are SEVERAL competing measures of inflation and the variance between them I've seen is on the order of 25% of the reported value. That amounts to at least +/-2%, and that really would have a big affect on purported inflation-adjusted GDP when purported growth is similar in magnitude to the variance on inflation.

So, I'm not necessarily saying that the growth values are flawed. But I think I have a healthy skepticism of it, and I think that's appropriate, and, that skepticism is undeniably tied to the published inflation figures. In my industry, there's been massive contractions in investments and resulting layoffs. I've also seen most of my peers restrict their luxury spending because they've been priced out due to inflation. My personal basket of goods has seen an average YOY inflation around twice the purported value.
> Space-X seems to be doing OK with Gwynne Shotwell running things.

Find Gwynne Chatwell for Twitter, and Bob's our uncle!
If that were really their goal, theoretically they could be. For instance, this forum has features, like invisible vote counts, and exponential cool-down periods which encourage healthy conversations.

Whether that is compatible with their business goals is another question.
I expect Tesla will still be his "crown jewel". He's already announced he's searching for a Twitter CEO. I doubt it would take him much time out of his day to set a general vision for Twitter.

Jeff Bezos for example owns the Washington Post, but doesn't run it (which will likely be the case with Musk and Twitter in a few months), and it doesn't seem to have detracted from anything while he was still CEO of Amazon.

Finding the right CEO will be the challenge, and I surprisingly haven't heard any speculation on who could get the job.
This resonates with me a lot! I play other such 'city builder' games like Tropico, Citystate with the same mindset. The game is just a system of rules and simulations; pushing it in one direction and seeing how the agents react and how the simulation plays it out is way more fun than reaching some 'win' condition.
