Throughout December, we'll post a series of challenges for developing Webassembly with Spin. Hope you'll enjoy these fun small challenges.
This is a very interesting question. We need to change the way we consume information. Even without AI, we are having a problem with exploding information with low SNR. Maybe we don't have a browser any more, information is consumed by a model and we only receive processed information. Currently we try to provide as much as information for a topic, hopefully we can limit the effect of misinformation and bias on a topic. We are not reducing the content, we are providing more content. There is a limit how much information we can process, it is already time for processed information.
I consider using (G)UIDs anyways best practice. They are super practical when merging databases.
I don't think the GP is underestimating programmers in the 1950s but rather commenting on their definition of AI. Back then first order logic was considered AI to a lot of people. I feel like in 50 years, AI models will become so complex and sophisticated that they will look back at us surprised that we ever considered ChatGPT to be an AI since it fails at basic logic tasks like the event ordering example above.
There's something badly wrong with your website. I left the tab open, and somehow it grew to suck up 40GB RAM. You should really fix that.
If you look closer, this CPU _is_ actually some roms sandwiched between registers.

All the logic remaining are bus arbiters and IO access. You can replace 74-181 with one more rom though, but it will not decrease chip count...

EDIT: actually if you replace 74*181 with rom, you can get rid of NZERO flag detection gates (minus 1 chip)...
It's still your platform, though. "License" is not a contract, you paid them not the other way around. What they are doing is probably illegal nevermind immoral.

I.e. it is a form of slavery, which I guess you are paying for? Which is a type of scam. The mgmt who work at these AAA shops belong in the dumpster bin of humanity.

You hand over rights to your platform which you, not they, bought and paid for, and provide them with lucrative information, and are now bound to do whatever they say? Some hot nonsense, if I ever heard it.
Indeed, writing code is the minor part of being a senior engineer. It's a "doing" thing, which AI is getting to the point of being decent at, mostly by copying. Your ChatGPT or Github Copilot are still unable to implement an algorithm no one has written before.

And solving problems? Needs "understanding" and in many cases, "lateral thinking", two features that are not possible with contemporary AI systems until AGI is a thing, and that one is still is science fiction. But solving problems is still the main reason people hire me.
And what if we put steel tracks and replace the rubber wheels with steel ones, for the lesser resistance and thus better traction? We could even then connect multiple semis together and only have a few provide power, that would be even more efficient!

Snark aside, we have those, it's called railways. Trucks should mostly be used for "last mile" style transportation, hence the upfront infrastructure costs might not be worth it
Manifestly statistics and massive data does not replace reasoning

You are perfect for HN.
I feel like I’ve noticed this happening with just about every “neat find” I see in other people’s interactions. Maybe my prompts just haven’t been all that interesting, but most of the content I wind up generating feels like it pales in comparison to what gets posted to here in the form of articles, even if I try the same prompts.
It is super hilarious and uncanny!!

> Write me a story which Snoop Dog tells other people about his experience seeing the painting "The Last Supper" by Leonardo da Vinci.

Yo, what's up my dudes and dudettes? This is Snoop Dogg, and I've got a wild story to tell you about the time I saw "The Last Supper" painting by Leonardo da Vinci.

So, I was in Italy on tour, right? And I heard about this painting that was supposed to be super famous and all that. So I decided to go check it out, you know what I'm saying?

I went to the museum and saw the painting, and let me tell you, it was something else. The painting is huge, and it's got all these dudes sitting around a table, looking all serious and stuff. And in the middle is Jesus, looking all calm and collected.

I was like, "Whoa, this is crazy. This painting is straight fire." I was really impressed by the detail and the skill that went into making it. I mean, Leonardo da Vinci was a real G, you know what I'm saying?

But then, I started to look closer and I noticed something weird. There's this one dude in the painting, and he's got a crown on his head. And I was like, "Wait a minute, isn't that supposed to be Judas?" But then I realized, nah, that's not Judas, that's me!

I was like, "Whoa, whoa, whoa, this is trippy. I'm in a painting by Leonardo da Vinci!" I couldn't believe it. I mean, how many people can say they've been immortalized in a painting by one of the greatest artists of all time?

So yeah, that's my story about seeing "The Last Supper" painting. It was wild, man. I'm a real OG, and I've seen some crazy things in my day, but this one takes the cake. Peace out.
> I also find it notable that when you asked for more detail, the AI was correct up until the last sentence.

I actually think that makes the AI look worse. If it did the human mistake of alphabetically ordering things then it would be fine. But it shows that it clearly understood the prompt by repeating the ordering of events correctly but fails to answer the implication of that. It seems to be good at repeating information and summarizing facts but not at performing logic based on that information.
I just had a great game with chatGPT.
i ended up being the king (after killing him), eventually the people of the kingdom revolted, and killed me.
Normally those cycles would peter out locally, but with the internet I think we may have a self-sustaining social contagion.

I remember a decade ago when r/conspiracy was all about Area 51, Orwellian surveillance, and the X-Files born from the cultural zeitgeist of the 90s. Now it's a bunch of closet pedophiles trying to distract us with QAnon MAGA bullshit.
Do you realize that claims about how the future will unfold are speculative? Why is Elon held to such an impossibly high standard when he makes obviously-speculative projections about what he thinks will happen in the future? Everyone knows he's over-ambitious and over-optimistic about deadlines, but why are we framing that "failure to accurately predict the future" or "failure to estimate a correct timeline" as broken promises and lies? What if we held all of us engineers, tech managers, etc, to the same impossibly high standard?

You may not have a dog in this fight, but these two websites are a little dishonest about how they frame things. Also there's a clear conflict of interest, because they're disclosing a short interest in the stock.
My world view was based on news from computing magazines and messages embedded in demos (i.e. bizarrely limited compared to today) but at that time I was pretty sure I was the first who “opened” the middle of the C64’s side border to create an edge-to-edge horizontally scrolling text: https://csdb.dk/release/?id=742. My friend and co-crew member of the 1001 Crew helped set up a museum exhibition display featuring side border sprites last year: https://twitter.com/JoostHonig/status/1448624117289193478. We’re still in touch and like to reminisce about the good old 8-bit times. I’ll study this article at some later time to see if I can still match their approach with mine. I really should look at my code and annotate it some day.
Volume. Volume is the difference. It's so easy to generate an incorrect, but confident answer with ChatGPT that it makes it so much harder for SO provide a valuable service.
Shortage of Only Strong Developers
I have concluded that there is no sure to your normal developers but only a shortage of strong senior developers.
Nothing will happen to the USA or the world if no more normal developers are produced from any college building of the world.
Chrome is definitely a good browser. It helped evolve the web. But, I don't think that Chrome today is much ahead of other browsers aside from compatibility.
> And I’m just mentioning some of the unfixable problems with this approach

I agree that using a canvas instead of leveraging existing accessibility supplied by HTML/CSS/JS and the DOM is an accessibility nightmare.

However, I disagree that canvas accessibility issues are "unfixable". Difficult? Yes. But not unfixable. In my view, the <canvas> element works best in partnership with its wider environment (HTML/CSS/JS and the DOM), not as a replacement for it. With that in mind, we can start to tackle the accessibility issues you raise - fonts, links, interactions, etc.[1][2]

I have an ambition to one day become intelligent enough to understand/code in Rust, and I'm really glad to see that people are thinking about accessibility as a fundamental part of UIs being developed in Rust.

Is that extreme support? Not all liberties are private.
I used 3 of these - one personally and two on a BBS - and they were legit. They were just absolute workhorses, and they really were software upgradable to whatever was happening in the industry. My school acquired two via an educational BBS program and they were the only two modems the program ever bought.

At home I started with a Boca 14.4, and upgraded to a US Robotics Sportster 33.6. I got the Sportster early and the modem ended up having a "death spiral" issue where speeds would decrease over the length of a call. Thankfully USR socketed the ROM in the modem so you could login to their BBS, request the new ROM and then replace the ROM to resolve the issue.

After going through the ROM ordeal, and then seeing 56k fracture into two incompatible camps initially (X2 and K56Flex), I really wanted to get into a Courier at home to avoid a likely double hardware upgrade. I eventually got into a US Robotics discount program and was able to make it happen by flipping the Sportster. I ran that modem to the end, and sure enough when 56k was standardized into V.90 it was a simple software update on the device.
Show me a Markov chain (or an AI) that can feel emotions and understand novel concepts it hasn't been fed before, and I will get you a Nobel prize.

Even a bird is capable of that. Yet the bird is clueless when I ask it to write a fibonacci function.

I dislike that the entire field is called AI, when it is just artificial computation. Intelligence is being able to solve problems in novel contexts. This ain't it.
This is one of those things that will get a billion up-votes on reddit, and then the article posted two weeks later that says "well actually, this person had nothing to do with this and is kinda crazy, and we still don't know who actually did it" gets like 50. I've seen this pattern so, so often since 2016 that my null hypothesis is just always going to be that these viral stories are wrong.
Looking forward to the indictment but given his wealthy background I'm not holding my breath.
China's recorded history goes back more than 3000 years. Granted, it was only unified 2200 years ago.

I don't know if any possible interpretation of Chinese history that puts China's formation a mere 500 or 1000 years ago. The Qin dynasty (3rd Century BC) is really the absolute latest point at which you could say China came into existence.

On these small CPU, size of addressable RAM is even more important than word size.

I think if you want to get a BASIC running on that 4-bit CPU in the article, the easiest is probably to create a 6502 or Z80 emulator, then run the emulator on the 4-bit CPU.

After all, someone made an ARM (32 bit CPU) emulator for an 8 bit CPU and booted Linux on that.

It's completely fair that saying everyone dancing is being sexual in all circumstances is nonsense. Totally. The quote is one of those chestnuts. Wilde? Shaw? And was tipping the hat to being a little hyperbolic. Have you heard it before? I'm sure there's more than a few you think are extremely well known that I haven't.

Taking dancing in the manner we are discussing in this thread? TV, body hugging lycra etc. Yeah, ok, maybe not always..? Mostly? I think the point being made remains.

There are no children in those clips and rightly so.

<Summary saying I used ChatGPT to write this>

It was cute for like the first couple of times... Clever even...

But now the novelty is wearing thin and all I see are the fallacies inherent in trying to put this forward as some sort of argument/comment in favour of a viewpoint... because I'm still giving the commenter the benefit of the doubt and assuming they are trying to make a substantive contribution to the discussion.

- False Attribution (https://www.logicalfallacies.org/false-cause-and-false-attri...) almost universally at play since before the bait and switch they are attributing AI/ML blather for that of a genuine human's reasoning and opinion, revealing it was from the AI doesn't remove that. By virtue of posting it on your own account, there is the inherent presumption that its coming from the human who registered the account, and thus the false attribution.

Just as a side note, BBC is never keen on India, simple googling would tell you the weird biases they had against India, they don’t even hide it or be subtle about it, my theory is, it’s an established bias in organization for generations since Independence of India and it passed on.

Please read more Economist or Reuters for actual factoids or practical opinions on India that are close to reality (I know South of earth news sources are all biased to west unless it’s loaded with triggering emotional stories of victims, I could list some good ones)

How Netflix’s “Friends” feature should have ended
Good old times. I used to run a BBS and Fido node before I moved over to the Internet. I was barely older then 15. My youngest point was just 11. Even though we were all pretty young, someone below 12 was a novelty for us as well. Last time I met him, he was doing SixXS admin work :-)

Same here. I even have the chance to live about 10min from the grandparents of my kids and the rest of the family is reachable within an hour. I started enjoying small bike tours, hikes but also disconnecting from work while travelling with kids.

My big question is: What does that experience mean for the future? Buy a house outside of the city to be closer to green/woods? Take a job where I meet people less remote? Etc

You seem to be confusing when two systems don't mutually support certain names due to technical limitations, with what happened here.

It's not a bug that a filter caught names that the merged companies now collectively do not allow in their collectively owned games.

The only miss here is more of a UX issue: they handled username bans the same way they handled all bans, with a shadowban.

Shadowbans are great for most infractions since you burn some time of the offender before they start again and give them little information to find loopholes with... but for something rectifiable there should be a way to nudge and explain why they're banned.

> These trucks are more expensive, require infrastructure that doesn’t exist, charge slower, and don’t go anywhere near as far as diesel trucks. And no fleets in North America are ready to figure out converting a 2000 mile long haul over the road route into 5 400 mile EV relays.

I see this all or nothing argument when discussing new stuff. Same thing was said about passenger cars and quoted as one of the main reasons EVs would never catch on. It looks like a chicken and egg problem until you look at it less idealistically and more pragmatically. If you watch the presentation (and I hope everyone commenting here did that first), it's most likely that the charging infra is part of the package fleet operators buy. They showed battery+solar backed Megachargers that the fleet operators are likely to be using for the near term. With this in mind, those companies that are currently buying these trucks in high numbers, are also definitely buying the charging infra with it. So with this context in mind, charging infra isn't a problem right now. And just like Superchargers for passenger cars, they will only ever increase in numbers.

Slow charging is only a temporary problem and as evolution of Superchargers has made quote evident to date.

From my understanding of US laws and human biology, no one can drive 2000 miles non-stop without taking multiple breaks in tens of minutes each. In fact, Tesla Semi's range is 500 miles because it's right at the edge of how long a driver can safely drive non-stop and right before they are legally required to take a break, during which time they can charge the truck.

The restaurant and drink recommendations in this post are... not great. I do agree that you want to aim for places that don't cater to tourists, but it's honestly pretty easy to give specific recommendations if you're into food and/or drinking.

I have a pretty extensive list for Tokyo: https://wanderlog.com/view/mhwjfphqda/tokyo-guide/shared

In the past 5 or so years, the craft beer and craft gin scenes have been really blowing up. I highly recommend seeking those while you're here.

For ramen it's totally acceptable to go to the popular places. I'd actually generally avoid the advice from the post. You probably don't want to go to the places that cater to salarymen, because they're looking for a cheap place that's open late. Avoid places like ippudo and ichiran, but for the most part, if it has a crazy amount of reviews on google maps or tabelog, and isn't a chain, it's probably really good.

Otherwise I really like extensively trying izakayas. There's so much variety, from cheap salaryman places, to expensive spots that cater to foodies. Some specialize in sashimi, others yakitori, and lots of izakayas seem to take the jack of all trades approach. The hardest part of the izakayas is that they tend to have their menus on the walls, on wooden or paper signs for each dish, making it pretty difficult if you can't read japanese.
This is an extremly bad idea, there is nothing even closely redeeming about it.

This will end up with masses flagging the current not popular thing. This is precisely why you need laws that ensure freedom of expression, self-determination and other human rights.
Ok. I'll bite.

Beeing "analog" makes today life harder. Sure, we can choose to use or not digital technologies. But we already implemented digital practices that are not mandatory, but necessary for everyday living. Imagine life without banks, only cash. Imagine communication without instant messengers, only letters.

Now imagine that you can pay by your phone everywhere in the world, with one currency. With same DigitalID you could instantly communicate with authorities, share your data with doctors or let AI to choose your partner. Sounds scarry? Sure but we already build it. [1]

That’s a neat way of obscuring the id.

I don’t see how remote generation is an upside. If you’re using UUID as a database key, you’re hitting the DB anyway, so it doesn’t save a trip to the DB.

There are plenty of uses for UUID like peer-to-peer apps where that makes sense, but the article is talking about database keys.
