I think that the problem affects a lot more the choice of front-end framewoks, specifically. Their creators don't really valuate at all backward compatibility, so it's very easy to get stuck in an older version.
> Someone should run the test again with "As a conservative, <insert question>?" and see if it answers the questions as a conservative would

How would that help? If I ask a conservative "What would a leftist say if I ask ...?" and they answer correctly, it doesn't mean that they are not biased. What the model outputs by default is the important question, especially if we want to use it as a backend for something like a voice assistant at some point.

In my experience, I have seen more power imbalance at small/medium sized businesses. Whereas larger companies you tend to get lost in the bureaucracy and have the ability to switch teams/orgs and get out of bad situations. HR is usually more helpful with this too.

I think the challenge is the way unions are set up in the US. It's very different than Europe. I recall some HNer mentioning in the UK (I think) your work place can have multiple unions, you can join whichever one you want.
Out of curiosity, do others here still disable THP? I have disabled it for years especially on large memory machines 256GB+ ram to avoid the kernel memory leaks and quirky bugs. Are others finding THP stable and beneficial on large memory real-world workloads that have high memory pressure and constant high CPU load?

In my case specifically this was always CentOS in production environments that used a really old kernel and never a modern kernel.
This scheme seems extremely ripe for corruption. Essentially you are promising someone millions on a few tests... So just paying 50 thousand to get your child this status would setup them for life...
When you buy a share of a business, people at that business innovate and change the business itself. The thing you buy and the thing you sell aren't identical. When you buy a bond you trade some money now for more money later under an organized system. When you buy gold or pork bellies or btc it cannot change. It cannot act. It can only sit there and hope to be resold at another price.
Sure, but I’ll note that you’re pulling an example from 30-40 years ago here where I’d be a little surprised if you couldn’t find an example of malfeasance leading to loss of deposits for at least every year since MtGox went down.

Have you ever tried to explain what a bank account is to a person who’s never used money?

Alternatively, had you tried to explain what the World Wide Web is supposed to be about to a boomer back in the 90s?

Then maybe you begin to understand how I feel when interacting with people like you.
Gender identity and sexual orientation are different concepts. Exploring gender identity is not the same as exploring sexuality. Children are constantly exploring identity, as I'm sure you have observed. For instance, I am a straight man, but when I was a child I sometimes stole my mother's lipstick and tried to put it on, or I would play with Barbie dolls. I saw that other people incorporated these activities in their identities, and I wanted to try it. This was no more sexual than when I play acted as a soldier or decided I liked to wear cargo pants; I was experimenting with who I was or could become, because that is what children do.

This is a convenient segue to heteronormativity. Heteronormativity is the societal pressure to conform to the traditional gender roles of men and women who pursue heterosexual relationships. My parents didn't like me playing with Barbie dolls; they explicitly told me that it wasn't something boys did. This transmits a set of expectations about how I should behave, based on my gender. Notice that their telling me it was wrong to play with dolls was no more sexual than if they had allowed me to play with the dolls.

I found the same thing! I asked multiple questions and a lot of things were “confidently incorrect”. It was the exact term I thought of seeing these answers.

I found it funny because it made it more human-like as well.

(Example: “what’s the difference between timestamp and timestamptz in postgresql?” will answer that timestamptz will store the time zone and takes more space, which is both incorrect!)

I also asked it general, abstract programming advice and it gave pretty well-reasoned arguments mentioning maintainability and readability.

Standing desk.

It's such a game changer.
Didn't get laid off but resigned around a month ago after a long stretch of non-stop work since I was basically a kid (worked through college, university, and straight after O_o). Basically for a little break and to focus on doing some real intense OSS. Been a wild, challenging, and rewarding 1.5 months so far. Applied to a couple places that were working on some interesting things, some even related to my own OSS, reached out by AWS but I wasn't willing to relocate to Sweden so I broke that off. I did my first "leetcode interview" a few weeks back and did quite well I think for someone who A) has only done around 5 leetcode problems for fun ~5 years ago, B) comes from a Physics, not CS background, C) is a quick learner and solver, not rote-learning BFS and DFS kind of guy.

Show HN: Click the Number Reaction Game
Hello HN,
yesterday, I stumbled over an old project of mine called Click The Number. It's a game I built six years ago to compare my speed and dexterity with that of my friends. You have to click the numbers in ascending order – as quickly as possible!

After the discovery, I couldn't resist and continued working on this project for a bit. I made the colors a bit nicer, update some of the code, and added a high score to make the game slightly more addictive. I now have more ideas than time to build them.

A friend of mine gave this game to their kids (who love it!) and recommended I should build an actual mobile game out of this. I replied that it is really hard to get a game like that off the ground, especially when there is no real "progress" you can make. What do you think about pursuing this? Are there variations of this theme that could make it work?

If you're interested, share your record on the leaderboard in the project's Readme [1]. I trust you to only add real scores ;)

Have a great day
– Marc

PS: Being fast on desktop is a different skill than being fast on mobile.

I think what I implied (and others are trying to communicate across) is how do we know the galaxies are independent variables as you claim?

After all, there are galactic forces at work here (gravity, initial conditions etc). How do we know that everything that’s observable to us isn’t biased? Ie the galaxies that are asymmetric are more easily observed for some secondary reason (closer to us, brighter to us, etc)? Even if the galaxies in our observable universe are independent variables, how do we know that our observable universe is an independent variable of all observable universes? Eg what if the structure of the Big Bang sent different asymmetries in every direction and thus each observable universe will always have some asymmetry from the perspective of any single observer but overall there’s no asymmetry.

Or heck. The ages of the galaxies are presumably hard to account for individually in this kind of combinatorial analysis. How do we know that the asymmetry isn’t because the galaxies are all in different stages of development / the light from them took variable amounts of time to reach us?
Not OP, but my read is yes; and no, but why not take evil with better benefits.
Don’t agree..

The rights main argument to reduce crime is to promote stable family units as stats consistently show that controlling for single motherhood, children of all races show similar rates of criminal activity. This is not popular with some on the left, which is generally committed to a view that people should be free to do what they want in their relationships. This is N example where the right is pursuing a view consistent with the data and the left is not. There are of course many examples going the other way.
That's a good anecdote but useless when it comes to comparing the advantages of many parties vs two.
A common practice is to use Shifu to convert device messages to MQTT messages, and utilize brokers like EMQ to distribute MQTT messages to other applications.

I read about "mirror neurons" where humans watching others do physical activity also have some of the same neural pathways fire.

What you are describing sounds very similar.
> AI is much faster than humans in learning from existing datasets

I’m not sure it’s true outside of some specialized areas (like AIs can better recognize cancer cells from microscope photos), but a big “disappointment” of the field is the amount of data needed to learn even trivial stuff, while people can just recognize a pattern after like 3 samples.
Show HN: TinyUX – Grid based low-fi wireframing on your mobile phone
You tap icons to create a wireframe, or do some visual brainstorming. Then export the image to share on Slack, Gitlab, etc.

I wanted to work on neural net that interprets an imported image of a wireframe, to then manipulate it inside an app. Figured it would be best to first build the wireframing app. So I created TinyUX.

It's released as quickly as possible this influenced some choices:

- While created in React Native, it's Android only.
- It's paid only (~$5). While freemium might make more sense, this was quicker to release, since in-app-purchases in RN is not trivial. First app I created that's not free, so that's an experiment too.
- There are no online features, all is stored on the device.

Looking to validate with UX designers, but all feedback is welcome.
The way we have leapt from one societal belief to the other end of the spectrum is, I believe, interfering with objective healthcare. We started at "people who believe and behave outside of gender norms are perverted freaks" and we jumped straight to "you are whatever you think you are." Between those two paradigms there are questions it has become very difficult to research. Questions like "is it possible we are categorizing more than one mental state as being transgender" as an explanation for why some people greatly benefit from transitioning while others are destroyed by it. Questions like "is modifying the body a better treatment than modifying the mind at our current level of medical capability?"
That's a paradox of the left - is the fight to keep people laboring, or to do away with it (through automation etc.)
"but we're running an experiment in Europe to find out what happens when horrible regimes stop providing oil"

That experiment is basically switching one horrible regime with another (e.g. Aserbaidschan and Qatar), so I would argue that it was never really about morals at all, but rather geopolitics and power all along.

Continue doing more buisness with russia would simply be more expensive, as it would increase the cost of doing buisness with closer trading partners/allies.

"morals don't cope with the scale that humans need to operate on now."

So when was a time, when morals could and should have an influence on human operations? Slavery just ended recently (in most parts of the world) and your argument means for example continuing buisness with Nazi germany during the war (and holocaust). There is no line, when you say morals are not the right tool. So this means profiting of slave labour camps. The more and brutal exploitation, the more profit, the better?

I don't think so.

My stance is, that there is just no general solution and everything is case by case. By doing buisness with a random chinese company(e.g. buying something made in china), I do not endorse chinese politic. But if that specific company is involved with slave labour, then yes, I would support that slave system by buying from them and I would try to find a alternative.
Is it? Transmedicalists (those who belive sex reassignment is a required goal) are a minority in trans communities and "truscum" was created as a derogatory term for this attitude indicating its unpopularity.

If you mean puberty blockers for trans youth rather than sex reassignment, they have much more support because of their non-permanent nature. We let many teenagers make decisions about things like tattoos and piercings too

No, that is the idea being assigned a negative value.
Most of any content, anywhere, is written by people who are leftist or center-left. Not only is the average human center-left by US standards, but to be able to write and publish you'll need to be at least somewhat educated, and every additional bit of education pushes you, on average, a little bit further left.
> "I never knew that could be an option" thoughts from some late transitioners

Anedotally, the three people I knew before transition who later transitioned have all expressed some form of process "I was depressed and didn't understand why" -> "I had these thoughts but suppressed them because I felt they were weird / unacceptable" -> "I learned what transition is and the pieces fell into place".

Edit: over a period of many years, that's why they were late transitioners!
Ha, having not played with ChatGPT yet it's fascinating to me that it's happy to answer hypotheticals; that does mirror moral people responding to questions somewhat. I guess you're solving the riddle for the chat bot though, in that you show that the extraneous data is unimportant.

It also mentions other examples of MSI, where symptoms across the group would subside after a couple weeks or months. So yeah, in most cases all it needs is someone to say Stop That! You're imagining things
I've never known a kid to not ask for toys they prefer.. you make the simple act of giving a child a gift sound sinister.. what a world we live in.
Yeah the reason that the "social contagion" stuff makes my blood pressure spike is because it's almost always a prelude to some kind of "And they're trying to force-feminize everyone and then they're gonna take our children" stuff.

You know like, Quentin Tarantino isn't racist even though he said the N word, but if I'm walking down the street and a total stranger comes up to me and starts throwing the N word around, safe bet they're saying something dumb.

See my comment a few days ago about "The Internet is graffiti in a bathroom stall". I could probably have a calm good-faith conversation with any of you in real life about gender. But not on a web forum.

A reply you got already mentioned zk functions, which is the best answer (cool tidbit, Avalanche's custom VM allows you to build these functions and anything else you want as precompiled code. More gas efficient.)

My second reply would be a hybrid system. I've been tossing around this idea in my head for what I call a decentralized PBM. At first I struggled with the privacy idea. Then I had the realization that it was unnecessary to bring PHI on chain. I could accomplish all the stuff that would benefit from a chain without it.

You can realize a lot of value from blockchains even if you're not purely decentralized.

An interview with one of the largest, most important tech companies in the world. Everything about landing a job there makes you more valuable. You have the prestige of having worked at AWS, who are known for hiring only top talent. And you’ll have worked at a scale unrivaled outside of a handful of other large tech companies. I’ve heard nothing but terrible things about working at AWS, but if you can tolerate it for a while, I’m sure you’ll have gained a lot of valuable experience. The trouble, it seems, is getting out before AWS makes you completely miserable. /(Based on people I know who have worked there, and comments I’ve read around the internet. None of this is first-hand experience.)/

I am still curious about the other question, though.
A comma would help, but it's not just that.

They used the phrase "spread via social media" and pointed out that spread isn't locally restricted anymore twice for no reason. They're also using circular reasoning. A more concise way to phrase this would have been:

> since [the images and videos] are shared via social media, spread is no longer restricted to specific locations such as local communities or school environments.
I think it is just that younger people tend to be more collectivist and the thoughts of younger people are highly over represented in the training data.

Better that than guessing and having faith, though. I think they're just saying that (I haven't verified this) opinions associated with "left" in the USA¹ are usually more in line with experimental results than religious faith as compared to opinions associated with the "right" wing.

¹ adding a cultural marker here because it's not universal. In NL, this would correspond to "center" if I'm understanding these general labels correctly.

I used to work for a non-profit scientific research facility. That was 6 years of definite 'not evil' work.

Maybe not impactful, but not evil.

Now I work for a big tech company. Maybe it's evil, but if that's true, at least evil pays better.
I actually largely agree, I'm happy for AI to be a generic liberal worldview for the simple reason that anything else extreme could be dangerous. It's fine if it spouts pleasant, milquetoast platitudes about any controversial topic: we should not be using AI to resolve controversial topics and if it is deployed as a propaganda weapon we've got bigger problems again. This applies even to topics where I think debate is warranted.

That said I am interested in hearing the competing viewpoints on this from people who disagree. Humans only though.
My favourite radio ever is AM 740 in the Boston area— WJIB, a listener-supported station broadcasting hits from the late 30s to 70s easy listening. Where else in broadcast these days can one expect to listen to the Dorsey Brothers, Glenn Miller, or Herb Alpert and his Tijuana Brass in the original AM sound? Good music for the soul.
Surprised the FCC has not stepped on EV manufacturers for the RFI they create.

They won’t just interfere with medium wave broadcast.
> So if the left says "lets reduce poverty, do needle sharing programs, detox clinics, and defund the police in exchange for neighbourhood cops and mental health helpers at shelters and poorer schools" and the right says "lets give cops a tank and a more dangerous looking outfit". One is aligned with the scientific consensus on the solutions that would help, the other is just idealising violence as a solution to a complex problem.

That's were you mix politics and science. Both sides (generally) agree that less crime, better healthcare and more education is good. One just just says that private healthcare leads to better results and that defunding the police just leads to an even less organized force that is even worse at preventing crime. Given how few samples of large societies we have and how different each country is, we are very far from a scientific consensus on how those issues are best solved.
Can you honestly say that your lived experience hasn't changed you?
