Excel compatibility really sux. And Excel is most used one by large. You really can't double click it effectivelly, as everything will be shown as generic type, so you have to mess up with wizard which is also half baked. I have to create tutorials for that for each service using it.
So many of these articles, and none address the realities of Saudi/Gulf family power structures. For the king/MBS to remain in power they need to keep the powerful families on side. That means giving them money, enough money that they don't get too jealous of the king's money and decide they should be king. But handing them money without directing how they spend it will lead to ruin. They will set themselves up as new powers, to the point that they will one day be buying weapons and influence to overthrow you. You have to keep them busy doing other things than plotting your doom. You give them jobs. Rich Saudi families own and run the construction firms building these silly projects. The up-and-coming sons of these families are called "investors" and "developers" of mega projects. They go to nice schools and spend their working lives consulting with architects and engineers. They hire famous westerners (Beckham) to promote their pet projects (soccer/golf tournaments). That is way way better than them consulting with militants, extremists and mercenaries. It is better than them running around the world building their own power bases. Call these projects wasteful and inefficient all you want. They are doing exactly what they are designed to do: keep the king from being overthrown. They are the Saudi version of Louise XIV's Versailles.

The (literally) central part of the project is a railway running through the whole length.

I'm no construction expert, but building the railway first so you can use it to ship material and workers seems like it could be good.
Though Postgres is great, I personally disagree. If you're starting a brand new project now I think you should use something redundant and distributed like CockroachDB or Vitess.
With how "secure" average app is I think there is probably much higher chance of them just fucking up than someone that uses password manager and doesn't run random shit off internet getting hacked.

If it was "here is your private key, you can use it in sofware or you can load it on a key and just use" I'd be much calmer about it but the whole push "your authentication and sometimes whole identity is inseparably tied to your device" is frankly scary and disgusting.

Maybe I’m just old, but there just isn’t much that I want to computers to tell me about that they don’t already do a decent job at. Everyone loves to complain about how bad Google search is, but I very rarely find myself desperately looking for something and unable to find it. There’s certainly no normal conversational interactions I can think of that I would love to have with a computer but have been unable to before ChatGPT and similar.

That limits how impressed I can be by ChatGPT and similar beyond just being impressed by it on a purely technical level. And it’s certainly very technically impressive, but not in some transcendental way. It’s also very impressive how could recent video games with ray tracing look, or how good computers are at chess, or how many really cool databases there are these days, or how fast computers can sort data.
Why would said wealthy, hard-working, and fit husband not just hire a maid?

Besides, it's often not just about the fact that someone has to do household labor. A lot of women are realizing that said ideal husband somehow expects their partner to clean up after them, essentially taking over the role of his mother. This is despite both parties often having a full-time job.

A lot of men demonstrate a form learned helplessness, and pretend they are unable to do even the most minimal form of household labor - often including things as trivial as putting the dishes they used in the dishwasher, or putting dirty laundry in the hamper. This needlessly complicates what should've been a trivial chore, and breeds resentment.

A commonly-heard sentiment is that women feel like they have to care for their husband as if he is another child. Their husband expects them to act as his mother and a maid in one. I am not really surprised that this is a turn-off.
> humanity could solve world hunger

Humanity does not need any extra money to solve hunger. We have enough food. Food prices, despite recent inflation issues, are being made more cheaply than ever in human history, in quantities more than sufficient to feed us all.

We just choose that some people go hungry, for being too poor.
Yes, postgrest isn't the one I was actually remembering that DID serve HTTP itself. I know there was an extension that did this though.

It doesn't matter anyway. Serving HTTP is not a problem particularly well solved by Postgres, and needing an extension instead of whatever hyper-optimized http server you usually use is increasing complexity, not decreasing it.
You are completely misinterpreting my quote, which makes me question whether you are acting in good faith.

Totally agreed that Signal servers cannot just add a device to a group chat.

What I saying was: in any system, you have to verify users for security in general. Having verified users in Matrix, you then get a massive red warning if an unverified device is added to their accounts. Given we have cross-signing (i.e. users are heavily encouraged to verify their own devices when they log in), you can be sure that such unverified devices are malicious and take appropriate action.

The obvious thing we could do is to go one step further (as we used to, until we backed it out in https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-react-sdk/pull/3837) and stop messages from flowing until the unverified device has been dealt with. Even better would be to make group membership controlled by the clients, so the server can't add devices at all. And we're working on this, as part of shifting the implementations over to the audited matrix-rust-sdk-crypto implementation to avoid having to solve the problem in quadruplicate.

> I would challenge you to get one reputable cryptographer to back what you’re claiming about these vulnerabilities and your proposed fixes.

Hopefully someone will pop up here and confirm that I'm not talking shit :) Failing that, you'll have to wait for the next Least Authority audit - we have another independent public audit queued once this wave of work finishes to address the "To me Matrix isn't secure" polemicists. You can see the last one (on the crypto layer, rather than the group membership layer) at https://matrix.org/blog/2022/05/16/independent-public-audit-... fwiw.

Over the last decade or so I've downloaded well over half of Prokudin-Gorsky’s remarkable collection from the Library of Congress in high resolution TIF format and spent many, many hours editing them in Photoshop and other photo editors.

Early on, my initial aim was to clean up some of the registration errors and remove color blotches and artifacts that should not be there but it did not take long for me to realize how truly significant these photographs are; they're not only important from an historical perspective in that they represent a lost era—that of pre-revolution Russia but also they're of great cultural interest as Prokudin-Gorsky photographed a vast diversity of subjects including people from all walks of life. Also, these images are the first truly high resolution, high quality color photographs produced in any number and reproducible format and thus they are very important from a photographic/engineering perspective.

The more one studies these photographs, the more fascinating they become. I say that from experience having edited many of the images—often spending many hours on just one alone. I've become familiar with the subject matter in these photographs in ways the casual viewer would not. I've found all sorts of detail that one would normally ship over but it's hard to miss when one is correcting the image down to a level of just a few pixels—one then sees the captured image in a completely new light.

It's a shame I can't post images here or I'd illustrate what I mean by uploading some of my edits. Also, I've learned much about the color/colorimetry and color filers Prokudin-Gorsky used by doing this editing (it's difficult not to after one's spend many hundreds of hours with them).

Possibly too basic for you, but I was hugely impressed with https://www.nlpdemystified.org/course (found on HN a week or two back). Each chapter has a large jupyter notebook with lots of annotated sample code.

Also there's no cost, no book to buy, no email signup, it's just a guy sharing knowledge like the old days. Great course.
Good point. I like to think that people ultimately have good intentions and maybe even the guy from WeWork could have had make it work somehow if they had a bit more integrity and actually tried to kick the can down the road until they can deliver something with value. When you can stay alive for long enough you greatly improve your chances for a great timing. Had Holmes survived till 2020, she might have become a success story with the testing during the pandemic.
I think it was in high school, that I found out about the basic money-back scam, because I innocently tried to buy something in a store with a certified (bank) check for more than the right amount and they wouldn't give me change. Eventually they took it and said I would get a refund from headquarters, but they were extremely suspicious.

This was before the internet was really a thing, too, so the same basic scam has been around for a long long time.

LLMs may be overhyped, but transformers in general are underhyped.

LLMs make a lot of mistakes because they don't actually know what words mean. The key thing is though - it's much harder to generate coherent text when you don't know what the words mean. In a similar vein it's completely unreasonable to expect an LLM to perform visual tasks when it literally has no sense of sight.

The fact that it can kind of sort of do these things at all is evidence of the super-human generalization potential of the transformer architecture.

This isn't very obvious for English because we have prior knowledge of what words mean, but it's a lot more obvious when applied to languages humans don't understand, like DNA and amino acid sequences.

For practical matters in the hospital, they are not.
Humans often drive in conditions were it's unsafe -- icy roads, dense fog, heavy rain, strong winds. We take the risk, and most times it's okay, except for the occasional pile-up on the highway.

But I don't think a "full self-driving" car refusing to drive in those conditions would be a deal breaker. I'd prefer it if autonomous vehicles were more conservative and just refused to drive in unsafe conditions.
Super excited to see Gridfinity on HN, it introduced so many new people to 3D printing as well as introductory 3D design.

It’s simple, modular storage that is practical and really grounds 3D printing in a genuinely practical use case.

To provide anecdata on how big gridfinity has become - it’s the #1 search, every week on Thangs.com, which is the largest 3D model search index available (over 14M models, and search volume is ~ 1 search every 1-1.5 seconds on Thangs). (1)

Gridfinity is literally more popular than Christmas in this community. And it’s been the top search term for a long time. (2)

There are entire subreddits dedicated to it. (3)

Zack, the guy who started it, is a genuine treasure of a human as well. Check out his YouTube channel (4), he recently built a Google Glass like device - and then shared all the designs, openly.

> ~90% of the time

This is the thing that always baffles me about self driving - while it may be very cool and impressive from a technology perspective, and while of course no technology can start out as completely bug free, when it comes to driving, anything less than 99.9999% success is a worse driving experience.

That is, until I can take a nap in my car, or read a book, or whatever, what's really the point? If I have to keep my hands on the wheel (or yoke) at all times, and have to pay attention 100% of the time, I'd rather be in a mode where I actually really do need to pay attention 100% of the time, instead of one where I really only need to pay attention 5% of the time (oh yeah, and if I miss that 5% I'm in an accident or dead).
I'd like to know answers on this.

The main thing I like about MySQL-based solutions is the availability of Galera multi-master software, which for simple configurations is very easy to get going. Drop a fairly cookie-cutter config on each host, and you're done:

# Galera Provider Configuration
wsrep_on=ON
wsrep_provider=/usr/lib64/galera-4/libgalera_smm.so

# Galera Cluster Configuration
wsrep_cluster_name="test_cluster"
wsrep_cluster_address="gcomm://First_Node_IP,Second_Node_IP,Third_Node_IP"

# Galera Synchronization Configuration
wsrep_sst_method=rsync

# Galera Node Configuration
wsrep_node_address="This_Node_IP"
wsrep_node_name="This_Node_Name"

Combine with keepalived on each node which does a health check, and if one goes down/bad, the vIP is moved over to another host in the cluster with minimal fuss.

Very well put! Having played with it for a week straight, I've come to a similar observation -- it's a generator engine, with a "soft" interface. You still have to have skill and understanding to use it effectively, but it's a great force multiplier, because it removes the friction around the initial interactions.

If you're solving a complex problem, you cannot expect it to "reason" about it. You have to break the problem into simpler pieces, then you can have the LLM do the grunt work for each piece.
My theory is that people with no children whose houses get messy have the disposable income to throw the old house away and just buy a clean one.

I've wondered the same thing about FSD in Canada.

Often we Canadians drive on roads where we cant see the lines due to snow/ice. We sort of form our own "lanes" based on where we think the lines SHOULD be.

> He posted it in a public platform and he is an executive.

He didn't post it. Another tiktoker did, but the exec was in the video. I think execs should be more mindful of what they say, even outside of work because of the potential reputational damage to the company.

However, firing the exec for something like this is a bit much. Everyone makes silly, dark, sexual jokes privately - outside of work. They should have warned him and given him more training about conduct outside of work.
Since this is about CSV, this is obligatory tool for larger ones:

Many wives would still want to have a (professional and social) life even if their partner is wealthy and hard-working. If you take all care of kids and of the house, it's quite hard to have time to be something. It's also exhausting in a bad way.

Having said that, wives often discount the bits that their husbands do for their household. It goes like: Thing A is something only my husband knows how to do, so he would be doing it; whereas we are both capable of doing B so let's share it fairly.

Thanks for the insight! I have some friends that do computational fluid dynamics, with particle physics being similarly numerical, and was looking at physics-informed ML for my own particular area in quantum physics in a recent grant application in the hopes for funding to close the gap a bit myself. What is so powerful about ML and related statistical techniques is their versatility and genericity, so a project that can be benefited by that region of statistics tends not to be too far away. I will look into energy-based models, too.
