I also see additional stories not shown in HN Search, e.g. https://news.ycombinator.com/from?site=theverge.com
"I think it's the opposite - without an "Algorithm" (instead just the simple algorithm of sorting posts by time) there's no natural way to find other interesting people to follow!"

Sure there is, it's called "effort". And that's the problem. You can scan directories of users, search based on topic, tags, explore chronological timelines of instances. Manually craft your feed like this, organically.

But I agree that this will not work anymore these days as people are used to algorithms taking care of this.

What I meant is: it is true you will still have to know how to read, integrate (and edit) the generated code, but you will {no[t] code} it yourself (see that no-code there).

I'm not very familiar with current AI “copilots” performance, and I'm more thinking in term of the "ideal" code generator (= good output)

It may seem like a stretch, but I’m one of those who dislike coding everything A-Z while still acquiescing to editing (good) code and enjoing integrating it.
Apple wasn't making and selling devices in China before Cook? Interesting.
I spray an extract from this plant on my plants, it’s a great antifungal. The product is called Regalia. This plant seems armed with everything it needs.
How has TuSimple faired? They had a similar mission
That does not address the problem described in GP at all
This sounds great and well thought out to be honest.
It's the parents' responsibility. No one outside the household can do anything about it imo.

Using AI to write will cause the same issues as:

- phones, some people don't try to remember directions, phone number or addresses

- calculators, some people cannot do easy math

- computers, some people cannot write with a pen, cannot spell without spellcheck

In reality it's probably completely equivalent. The version prefix in the path would probably live in some GITHUB_API_URL variable. The header would be set on the http session object.
Neither of the epidemiology examples makes any sense to me. There seems to be some kind of implicit assumption that people with more friends are more likely to be infected, but that really isn't how friendship works.
You can manually set the API version associated with the token.
Hey I’m working on exactly this!

Still brewing at the moment but send me an email at cole.christensen@gmail.com if you’re interested in updates, perhaps a free prototype in a few months.

The general idea is open hardware sensors you can do whatever you want with along with an optional paid cloud service.
Fantastic idea, congratulations. And your pricing plan is good too, focusing on admin users and free for everyone else.

My quick feedback: your landing page has a lot of info that feels too generic. Your actual value prop process is far down the page at "1. Connect. 2. Define. 3. Automate". Consider moving that section higher?
I still need to read past the first page, but I was reminded this morning of the 2021 paper “On the dangers of stochastic parrots: can language models be too big?” which discusses the harms and diminishing returns of moving to ever larger language models.

I had to rush out the door today after seeing this paper come up so I can’t speak much to its content right now. But if anyone wants to read it and reflect here I’d like to hear it.

In case it interests anyone, I built a document editor + GPT and updated it to use text-davinci-003: https://github.com/typpo/arkose/

If you want to try GPT-3 but don't have an OpenAI API key, I've set up a quick demo here until I hit my billing cap (normally users would supply their own API key): https://arkose.pages.dev/
Yeah. Since trying C, I've learnt a bit of Rust, so referencing and dereferencing seem straightforward without abstracting references using a pointer.
I know this is not the point but this REST API is way better than their "UpdateEnterpriseAllowPrivateRepositoryForkingSettingInput" GraphQL type, dang!

I know it's not that REST .. it is what it is, probably annoyingly strict req/res, but it's very solid API. I'm glad they are trying to improve .. it.
How are they using it?

Airdrop is based on proximity as measured by NFC and/or Bluetooth (?),
and you can't use it as an ad hoc network mesh to route messages across it.(?)

So Activist Organizer 1 can't coordinate with Activist Organizer 2
3 km away using Airdrop unless activists in the space between forwards / routes messages in the right physical direction.

If they are well organized from the beginning, then each person (node) can
forward each message to 3 - 5 contacts but that requires them to maintain
physical formation during the activities.

I am not an expert on AirDrop, I am just trying to figure out how it helps out.

Musk has threatened to develop a new Phone if Apple and Google block Twitter from their devices.
I would hope he lets the UK block Twitter before implementing China-like regional censoring.

I was curious about Musk's dependencies in China (Tesla Gigafactory/ Chinese Car Market access), and just now learned that Twitter is blocked country-wide there. (but routinely accessed by VPN) So if The CCP in particular threatens Musk to censor Twitter, he can just tell them that's their problem.
Do you have a favorite vaccine?
I'm pretty sure manufacturing paperbags causes more GHGs than manufacturing plastic ones. I think reusing bags would probably be best.
I find the ATTiny85 difficult, since you have to connect a programmer to it.

I tried the Digispark clones but then you lose the low-power advantages.

I'm usually trying to work out problems with my crappy code so I need a connection all the time to iterate. So I prefer the ESPs or Arduino Pro Micro.
It's also likely we're just seeing the limits of what the tech can do. It's not actually "intelligent" it's effectively a cool trick, and at some point the gap between what the trick can do and what a "perfect" AI can do becomes obvious. It's really not that different from Eliza being cool for a few minutes before being obviously found wanting. It just takes longer for the shine to wear off as we get to a better technology. Ditto for self driving cars - a steep climb to a 90% solution, then an impossible chasm to cross to something that actually handles the edge cases.
Sounds like the exact opposite of aligning to me.

I think I'm probably the target market. I don't want to eat meat but I also love cheese burgers, sausages and other processesed meats.

Beyond is amazing for me because I get to enjoy something that's close enough to the food I love without eating any meat.
Various other stories from /new also don't show up in the search. This would indicate the search is a bit behind, not filtering.
> …it’s factually true and relevant to the context.

this is factually true?

what exactly is a “coastal media type”?
we have a critical security interest in taiwan remaining independent -- zero moralizing needed. any empire, nation, group or individual human has some sin you can point to, china is not unique, and neither is the US. the US will lose the throne to china in the 21st c if it takes taiwan. there will always be a throne, the only question is who is in it.

I honestly don't think it's possible to solve, other than by increasing the amount of evaluation that's done in locked down conditions.

I cannot imagine a detection mechanism that could not itself be defeated by some tweaks to the prompts being used to generate the essays.

It's effectively the same problem as "prove that this kid didn't get their friend/cousin to write the essay for them".
The version is only optional in the request: when it isn’t provided in the request then the system will default to the version of the API that would have been given had this new system not been implemented, so there is no change in behaviour for existing implementations, there are no footguns or impending explosions. The key point is when they refer to today, they don’t mean “today as of the time of the request” they mean today, as a point in time: November 28th, 2022.

The benefit of this new versioning approach is that they can maintain backwards compatibility for existing implementations while introducing breaking changes for new implementations to benefit from.

In an ideal world, sure, they should have implemented this from the start, but they didn’t, so going forward they have to accommodate both existing implementations (by not breaking anything) and new implementations (by providing features that would break existing implementations).

They’re basically just implementing stripe’s well-understood and battle tested approach for versioning, while maintaining backwards compatibility. I am struggling to see any problems with the approach, in fact, it seems like the only right approach (?)
These anti-competitive pricing models seem to be the primary motivation for a large scale landlord wanting to invest in the first place. So it sort-of is?
> Meat eaters primary issue with vegan cuisine is that it does not include meat.

In my extended group of acquaintances, the distaste for typical vegan food isn't that it doesn't have meat, it's that it tries to pretend that it does and ends up being kinda gross as a result.
Share your Discord name and I'll send you a msg there. Looks like there's someone else in this thread that might be interested
I think this is a core part of the problem; if the default for everything was to not take advantage of UB things would be better - and we're fast enough that we shouldn't NEED all these optimizations except in the most critical code; perhaps.

You should need something like

gcc --emit-nasal-daemons

to get the optimizations that can hide UB, or at least horrible warnings that "code that looks like it checks for null has been removed!!!!".
Maybe not quote tweets.

But backfilling old content, full followers and follows? These are indeed sorely missing.

Let alone the horrible Mastodon search.
Cool, I'll send you a message tomorrow.
I’m quite happy to see this having lived in apartments driven by automated pricing which is obviously a new kind of cartel.
I think you mean "refine" rather than "correct".

> The fact that they don't and if it is discovered, it will mean all of the work generated by them is not copyrightable and therefore everyone is free to copy it. They'd also have to lie to the copyright office and the businesses they were selling their services. The only thing doing the work here is the lie.

you and i have extremely different impressions of how effective regulatory repercussions are at actually constraining behaviour.

circumventing laws and regulations really does do a lot of the work in the economy. vast amounts of plagiarised code run in software we touch every day. artistic work gets crudely lifted. i don't see something as powerful as ai content generation being constrained by dictums about what can be copyrighted.
"What's fascinating is why that disconnect happens. Since the 1950s, sociologists have identified three factors that need to be in place for friendships to take hold.

They are:

• Proximity: You're around each other regularly.

• Unplanned interactions: You see each other even without putting an appointment on a calendar.

• Privacy: You're in a space where you can exchange confidences."

> is there a situation where there's automatic storage but no stack?

Yes. As a trivial example, some C interpreters use a different datastructure instead of a stack.
It uses almost same mounting tech as colima (9p)

Macpine: https://github.com/beringresearch/macpine/blob/71788e9c3c09c...

colima: https://github.com/abiosoft/colima/blob/7ebcf14a69158afa43b2...

So it seems that it has same performance as colima project as well.

As for IO performance, see this colima issue https://github.com/abiosoft/colima/issues/146#issuecomment-1...

mine had a leaky rear main seal. That was not a fun job. Fortunatly, my brother is an experienced auto mechanic (with ~$50k of SnapOn tools). So we were able to get it done, but there is no way I could have done it myself. The vehicle had 300k on the odometer and ran perfectly when I sold it last year for more than I paid. The reason I sold it was that the plastics had got brittle from the UV in the new mexico sun, so much of the interiod was falling apart.
Yeah, noticed that. Figured that warranted downvotes more than being dead, though it is a tough call as the site could become reddit with too much of that
Biden asks Congress to force unions to ratify a contract that they rejected. I'm pretty sure that Congress doesn't actually have the power to do that. Did I miss something? Or is this just "make up arbitrary new federal government powers week", same as every other week?
Which company design these Chinese-made Apple products?

Where is that design company located?

If that design company stopped outputting anything, what would the Chinese-made Apple product making company do? I'm guessing they would keep making more of the same and end up with a stale product in a few years.
Worth adding on that McCarthy knew exactly what he was doing and didn't care. It raised his profile. (Source: master of the senate, caro)

We are maintaining a popular open source / open hardware air quality kit that is also available as a pre-soldered version [1].

It incorporates many of the features of our commercial monitor, e.g. high quality and accurate sensor components, professional looking plastic enclosure, air flow optimized PCB for accurate measurements etc.

Since it is open source it is very easy to point it to your own server. We do also have an active forum where you can get help and discuss specific things around the monitor [2].

On the pre-soldered kit that we sell, we test all components before shipping and preflash the MCU. It only consists of a few components that need to be plugged onto sockets already on the PCB. I am able to assemble it in less than five minutes (no soldering iron required).

We spend a lot of time and resources to get this open hardware kit right and you are correct that many -if not most- DIY air quality monitor project that you find on the internet have significant weaknesses (e.g. poor sensor selection, internal overheating of the temperature sensor) that leads to very inaccurate measurements.

Why do we do this? AirGradient started as a volunteer project to help a school in Thailand better manage air quality during wild fire season and from the start we worked with students building sensors. So this is part of our DNA and also an offical part of our company [3].

> [1] Waste purely from the perspective of growing human food. I understand many parts of the animal are actually used for other purposes.

That's pretty important. If we replace the high margin steak part of the animal with lab grown equivalents, what is the plan for all the things we've learned to make with the rest of the cow?
There is a delicate balance of action and phrasing in China, no? It seems two contradictory ideas can coexist for significant lengths of time; e.g. see
the complexities around Taiwan's relationship with China. Perhaps someone with a deeper knowledge of the culture can explain it better.
I'd go one step further, and just have a massive cartesian grid of 4x4 Look Up Tables (LUTS) clocked in a checkerboard manner... all of one color is active, then all of the other color... it prevents all race conditions.

There are HUGE advantages to computing this way, in terms of relocating code, routing around defective cells, security, etc. I've blogged about it at length in the past.[1]

> There is an implicit assumption, to my mind, that the user has a deeper understanding of what is behind the "curtain" that is created by the compiler.

With the behaviour of today's C compilers, what benefit would there be to such an understading? It would seem to mainly give the user a lot of ways to shoot themselves in the foot.
I think it would be prudent for Elon to focus on starting one garbage fire at a time, but who am I to judge the Iron Man.

Would be curious to hear though how GitHub plans to evolve the GraphQL API. From the recent almost unannounced removal of the GraphQL package API one can get the impression that it’s safer to use the REST APIs.
What information? The fact that there are more trees today than 100 years ago? Lots of sources on that. [1][2][3] As for the rest, I think the magic of trees is self-evident, and though I work in the industry, I don't think the utility of trees is terribly controversial. Also, relative to your arguments around old growth, that strikes me as moving the goal posts (and not terribly relevant as there's very little old growth harvest ongoing in the US -- what's left has almost all been protected). But as for the article's argument that "At that rate, some scientists predict the world’s forests could disappear in 100 to 200 years." -- that's simply preposterous.

[1] "Forest growth nationally has exceeded harvest since the 1940s. By 1997 forest growth exceeded harvest by 42 percent and the volume of forest growth was 380 percent greater than it had been in 1920." https://www.fao.org/3/x4995e/x4995e.htm
[2] https://www.treehugger.com/more-trees-than-there-were-years-...
[3] "The acreage of all private and public forests have remained the same over the last half-century. The area of productive unreserved forest and (timberland) has remained stable for the last 50 years. The reserved (timberlands where cutting is not allowed) are actually increasing." https://www.thoughtco.com/us-forest-facts-on-forestland-1343...
> Animals do a lot of stuff (and have a lot of parts) which are not necessary when producing a steak or ground meat.

Useful parts, which will have to be replaced right along with replacing the profitable steak parts.
I think the version should only be in the URL if you intend to support that URL forever.

I am of the opinion URLs are a promise the document will be available until the end of time. I don’t want to break the internet with 404s.

Since the only promise here is for the API to exist for 2 years when depreciated, then I think using a header is appropriate.

Query param doesn’t make sense either as it is often used as input data into the document at the URL. The document schema depends on the API version, so query params become a chicken/egg scenario
Same way you solve the issue of kids cheating by having someone else write their essay.
This is not my field and my understanding of it is limited to high school science, but a picture being painted for me as a naive consumer of scientific news is that we're seeing evidence that viruses are playing a role in evolution. We get infected with things that alter our DNA, and sometimes those alterations give us advantages.

It leads me to wonder if there's a role mosquitos play in our ecosystem after all. It's long held that mosquitos serve no positive purpose in ecosystems and ought to be eradicated when possible. When confronting the affects of malaria, it's hard to argue against the idea, but it's certainly true that mosquitos are an effective virus delivery mechanism. If sometimes viruses play to our advantage, maybe there's more to the insect's role.

Or maybe I just need to read more.
Exactly. One of the things that holds back natural materials like wood vs. e.g. steel is the lack of consistency. Knots and gaps in wood are still a problem. Having a single, uniform, standardised, certified, homogenuous, large piece of wood would make it far more convenient for many applications.

You can credit the printing press and increase in accessible information to the literate classes with the enlightenment, broader literacy, modern banking and a whole lot of other good things but the backdrop of all these developments was 100-300yr (depending on how you count) of religious and succession wars as some power was taken from the catholic church and the rulers that were closest to it and redistributed to a broader set of local rulers.

It was definitely a step forward for humanity but it wasn't all unicorns and rainbows.

I kind of .. DIY'd this combination myself for a bit.

It allows you to take a much lower dose of dextromethorphan and so have fewer undesirable side effects. It helped me cope with some chronic physical pain I was suffering with at the time (in addition to depression).
I found my most successful job via HN back in 2011 before the whoishiring bot was made, when these posts were less formal and structured. (Not sure how good or bad this is internationally, but great in the USA).

> “As recently reported, software offered by RealPage uses pricing algorithms to adjust prices on vacant apartments in real time… The program may also induce landlords to charge the rents recommended by the algorithm, putting upward pressure on prices and decreasing the availability of affordable apartments”
That’s the meat of it, really. Someone more knowledgeable can speak more confidently, but I’d be pretty surprised if we see anything materializing here.
And I believe you can't order one at that price as the waiting list had reached several years so they closed the book. You're looking at over 100kAUD to buy a low km used one.
