The problem isn't runtime implementation details, but the static analysis and compilation steps which devs rely on constantly. The tooling has had major performance issues at times (though in my experience it has improved consistently) and the experience of writing TS could be dramatically improved by having a language like Rust or Go powering it at the core.

If you meant parallel processes within the tooling, I suspect web workers wouldn't be the solution (they're part of the Web API). Node does expose a worker thread API, which they might already use in the typescript repo (I'm not familiar with any of their code).
Indeed. This problem was foreseen years ago, and the fix is easy. Increase seats in schools, pay more, provide better hours. It's not rocket science. The resistance comes from just not wanting to do any of things because its expensive.
this is very interesting. when I first heard the condition: one religion control everything from government to local community and companies, I think it should be terrible, but I so frequently heard about how they are so good at system.
The difference is brake lines are inspected and understood by humans. Failure to reasonably maintain them is illegal.

No single human fully understands these AI models, and they can change daily. Yet Tesla is putting them in control of multi-ton vehicles and leaving all liability on humans with worse reaction time and little to no understanding of how it works or tends to go wrong.
That's such a stupid explanation that it's probably true.
Thanks for that. Probably not practical for my needs. The Nest "Smart Learning Thermostat" tries to save energy a little too aggressively for my taste. I think another brand would do better. In addition to the "Lag" being too wide, it also seems to have a low sample rate for the temperature. My master bedroom will often go to five degrees above the setpoint because the Nest will keep the heat on thinking it's still cold. It's really complete garbage. (I've measured the temperature separately to confirm it's a Nest issue.)
On one hand, Elon Musk can create rules that only apply to just him.

On the other ElonJet can also just post on Mastodon.
I've always wondered about this for watching TV
> Unemployment is low, inflation has been far beyond 2%, so the goal is obvious.

But isn’t the current inflation because they printed money out of thin air for nearly two years to push markets well beyond all times highs? Their methods feel more akin to filling up a dam’s holes with bubble gum rather than something more foundational. It seems like a lot of rubber banding.

In my experience on the ground, all they’ve done is destabilize investments, prices, and inflation.
Maybe the booing in person and Dave Chappelle's comment about the booing being pending civil unrest spooked Elon a bit. His right wing shit posting on twitter reaches a lot of people and many dislike him for it.

I've been seeing a lot more people posting about boycotting Tesla and associating ownership with his views. I drive a Tesla and frequently people bring up Elon to me. I usually just tell people I don't like/care about Elon but I like the cars Tesla makes.
If they are doing intermittent fasting, then why do they have to "reintroduce" foods during the 10 day feeding window, when they've been eating food every day?
Serverless GPU is all of the rage in the past month - I'd love to see a review of this from someone who knows how to benchmark a GPU workload.

In particular:

- Autoscaling Stable Diffusion Inference

- Traditional creative workflows (realtime GPU viewport in octane for example)

- Gaming from one GPU in your house to everywhere else

I get the training example for small models but can't imagine it scales that well with model size

The big value seems to be... share 1 GPU to many computers, so spend less on a cluster? Capacity fungibility is real value but hard to measure!

In any case, stuff like this is a good bet. GPU software will continue to increase in prevalence, and utilization will remain low. Solving for the compute market liquidity is important despite NVIDIA's best efforts.
What proportion of months contain parts of six calendar weeks? (2012)
Yes. According to Twitter policy there must be "24 hours" delay since it's only way to follow "not same-day" rule. This will obviously makes Twitter useless for any news reporting.
Love secret Hitler, but I do regret the theme (someone has to actually RP as Hitler...)

Was thinking of getting it for my sister who lives in Munich, but I wonder how people in Germany feel about this casual Nazi game?

Luckily, one of the coolest aspects of SH is that's it's licenced under Creative Commons! So you can just download and print the rules and paper version of all the game pieces, right from their official webpage. This means there has been a vibrant community of modders who have made e.g. a star wars themed version.

For this reason alone, you should still go buy it! But I wish there was an officially licensed alternative like "Secret Palpatine" or something.
They definitely can. I listen to a podcast about indie horror games on Spotify and they regularly insert an ad that sounds like someone cranked the gain and compression to 11.
figleaf it is -- it's not like the position of a jet tells you where a person is exactly.

Might as well ban people posting photos of celebrities at random places, it's way more accurate.
It's precisely because fixed costs are so high why the railroads are so intransigent, especially considering they've been captured by activist investors. High fixed costs raises the stakes for swings in variable costs. And labor accounts for ~40% of variable costs (circa 2009 per https://www.ndsu.edu/fileadmin/challeyinstitute/Research_Bri...) (I can't find numbers for variable or fixed costs as percentage of total operating costs, but it seems fixed costs are definitely >50%, especially since deregulation.)

The import is that the railroads will likely need to be forced to provide sick days. Both because management and investors are so sensitive to variable costs, but also because there's a collective action problem--any one railroad doing this immediately puts them at disadvantage to the others in terms of stock prices. But just as you say, any mandate is unlikely to result in significant real costs to customers.

Alternatively, maybe a Musk-like industrialist could swoop in with ideas on how to reduce fixed costs, shifting emphasis. But that seems unlikely. The whole industry seems to be completely geared toward extracting as much value as possible without investing capital.
The unions were already complaining about the elimination of support personnel on the train due to safely.

ZuccJet too: https://twitter.com/zuccjet
Twitter is a private co/platform so Elon can do whatever he wants (within the law).

Doesn't mean that users (like me) are going to be happy or continue using Twitter.
It's a hastily-written rule designed to ban Things Musk Doesn't Like while allowing things he does. See also the exception:

> In addition, you may not share private media, such as images or videos of private individuals, without their consent. However, we recognise that there are instances where users may share images or videos of private individuals, who are not public figures, as part of a newsworthy event or to further public discourse on issues or events of public interest. In such cases, we may allow the media to remain on the platform.

So vague it's impossible to determine in advance what's allowed and what's not.
I don't think punching someone falls under strict liability, and I don't think DoS attacks do either.
Are you allowed to cash out your sick days in Europe? It seems actually anti-worker in a way, giving people a financial incentive to go into work anyways when they're sick.
Aren't the public govt data feeds of the actions of notable public figures public events? Define public event? If I see him going into safeway to buy some cheetos is that public?
Oh, not pg. I was thinking more about the industry's duelling distractions, SBF and EM
Am I the only one wondering when it stopped being one?
SvelteKit is nice to rapidly develop websites (after some initial training/familiarization/minor frustrations stage), I only wish it was a library w/ perhaps a separate CLI utility and the framework optional; ie- if they exposed some core features as re-usable functions or one-off CLI commands to build a static site with its clientside window.location/cached routing technique that makes sites feel blazing fast for example.

This way you wouldn't have to drop in and adopt the entire framework just to get one or two features.
And then it's banned again.
No, that is not the case.

The critical necessity of open and unobstructed expression to a functioning liberal/democratic order far exceeds such considerations.

> Try to think of someone you admire. Fighting for a good cause. A pro-choice activist or an female celebrity flying to an African country to work with NGOs for women's health issues or something.

Speaking of lovely Angelina, as a CFR member she will be well advised (by experts) to take necessary precautions, should they be necessary. In fact, I would be surprised if she does not have a professional security detail.

Btw, I'll take that bait ("pro-Choice") and offer you this: At a fundamental level, my view is that as a citizen of a free society my primary concern shall never be my choice or viewpoint, rather that which insures that I may freely express my views and be able to freely exercise the political right to promote or support my viewpoint. Anything that undermines fundamental mechanisms that support our free society, regardless of the ideological or right/wrong garb it takes, must be rejected. That would be a more accurate picture of what "[I] think".
Yes! American Radio is what I'm leaning toward. I wanted a CT-80, but they have discontinued it (confirmed with them). I guess I'll go with the CT-50. The CT-80 had a nice feature in that it could support both Z-wave and WiFi, but apparently they had too many bugs and pulled it.
They can't loosen the requirements for licensure or implement AI driving any more than you could do that for an airline today.

Would you be ok with having having people who haven't been licensed as pilots flying? Or only having one pilot flying ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33937973 )?

With a 'self driving' train that's a mile long... what happens when you have a train derailment that doesn't sever the cords and things go wrong? https://youtu.be/YQMZPB_rVJ0

There is positive train control ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positive_train_control ) but that represents a significant investment in rails that are owned by companies... but it doesn't remove the responsibility of a human - it just reduces the spots where human error can cause problems.
Can't wait until I can use Melodics in a browser, it would make it possible to use a raspberry pi or a cheap chromebox to run the app on a TV screen in my drum shed to practice.

Check it out, it's https://www.melodics.com/ and I'm not affiliated in any way, I just hope I catch the eye of the devs and they indulge me :)
Elon posted just now saying the reason for this was someone was stalking his child last night thinking it was him and blocked the car.
> I don't think anyone is surprised by this. CPI at 7.1% is better than expectations and trending downwards but it's still way above target.

If actual monthly CPI inflation had been 0 since July, the 12-month trailing number would still be high because its a 12-month trailing number; OTOH, PCE inflation is not nearly as low, even looking at the monthly numbers (not really high, except in the 12 month trailing, but not low and still noisy), so, given the Fed's preference for PCE, its easy to see why they still see the need for monetary brakes, looking at current, not jusy 12-month trailing, inflation.
Ask HN: Word for Tab Misclick
Is there a word for when you want to click on an open tab but you accidentally click the 'x' and close the tab? Is there a tab x misclick undo command?
16 colors at 640x480 resolution! VGA graphics are the future!
You can see people making similar post-truth legal arguments on HN (and doing the same in other domains). It elides from a rhetorical or philosophical game into people thinking it's reality or advocating the post-truth culture like it's a cause. When it doesn't map to reality it's going to hurt, like Wiley E Coyote running too far off that cliff.

What a bunch of super-geniuses.
I can absolutely support this recommendation. A classic.
No, because chess has players directly interacting, rather than just playing independently.

I enjoy chess occasionally, with a player at a comparable skill level. That computers play it far better doesn't bother me in that context, the way it bothers me that a computer would be better at carefully tracking exactly how many points other players have in Ticket to Ride.
The JavaScript we use is now much, much less. Actually, most times we just sprinkle in a bit of hyperscript for the times we need something a bit more dynamic than plain htmx. _hyperscript is a separate library by the same author that provides an HTML type of scripting in the attribute tags.

Still, in general, because we are generating fragments of hypermedia (HTML) on the server and returning that to target elements in the browser directly, the need for JavaScript directly in our code lessens dramatically. As you mentioned, though, you do need to include the hmtx JavaScript libary with a script tag. That library is very small though when min - something like 12k.

Amazingly, you can build some pretty dynamic web apps using htmx and sprinkling in a little vanilla JavaScript or _hyperscript if you are daring! The main key for us though is thinking from a hypermedia point of view with SSR; that coupled with the elimination of the complicated development configurations, is a huge win in simplicity and productivity. No more versioning our endpoints too!
I think the team is afraid to stand up to Musk, and this makes things worse... but I think you're crafting an explanation where Musk isn't in the loop and pressing for things to happen immediately. This isn't consistent with Musk's public comments and tweets during the Blue rollout. E.g. he talks of having personally killed the gray checkmark, and that "Blue check will be the great leveler."

He even says at the time:

> Please note that Twitter will do lots of dumb things in coming months. We will keep what works & change what doesn’t.

https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1590384919829962752

> More reasonable people who are beginning to catch on to the management style go and actually develop the policy; once it's developed, it makes sense to just Ctrl-Z the actions of the overeager group.

and now elonjet is back to being banned, so this doesn't really make sense.
That's because they can employ workers from various low income nations (especially if English speaking) for cheap. No pesky environmental regulations for the fuel quality and resulting pollution either.
Compare the labor costs of shipping from one us port direct to another us port (requires a us crew) and a foreign port to a us port.
I wish they could solve the basic use case of "Let me set a temperature and thermostat keeps the house at that temperature." I tried several versions of Nest, and they all inevitably decided on their own that they were smarter than me and generated some weird schedule despite my never commanding them to operate on a schedule. I just want my thermostat to hold whatever temperature I set it at, until I set it at another temperature. This shouldn't take AI wizardry to achieve.
Hi, actual third world person reporting from the third world.

Most of our machines have no SSD and 8GB RAM on a laptop is a luxury. You can buy brand new Celeron machines like it's 1998. Windows 10 runs like shit and Windows 11 is basically a slideshow. Electron apps are the bane of our existence.
Can leave your shoes on if you do precheck. Takes you back to 2000 level security. No body scan or taking laptops out of bags either.
"Elon is just bad at communicating" is a reasonable take. But it's still his fault.
Going to second Carcassonne, and say that one thing I really like about the game is that's almost purely contextless, in that it doesn't require you to hold long-term strategy/ideas/concepts in your head for extended periods of time. If you showed up to the middle of the game, and were told to play the turn for somebody, largely you could. This makes it a great casual game with friends, as a long continuous attention span isn't really required.
Because your average news consumer isn't intelligent or educated enough to appreciate it, and the media understands that all too well. They know who to pander to, and it's not us.
It seems like a particularly unique situation though. Regardless of your stance on unions, a national railroad strike would be an egregiously unacceptable outcome. Nearly every other person in America would be negatively impacted by quite a severe degree.

You don't have to love it to understand it.
Somehow people like money. When offered lots of it they are willing to do shady stuff starting with not checking how the money was obtained (violence, murder and theft). Bad for democracy. See Kleptopia, https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/boris-johnsons-russian-cr... etc.
I don't want to support this guy in any way shape or form. The damage he's doing is rapidly undoing any good that he's done so far and he's on the expressway to net-negative territory.

I'm sure you have a point though: to step out of his bubble of yes-men must have been a cold shower.
That is literally one of the first things you learn as a beginner.
> ded. I developed this theory in the roll-out of Twitter Blue

My theory around this is that this was a test to see which developers are willing to do what he says on a short timeline and are able to have the required impact across the stack.
That's interesting, I'll have to go take a deeper look. Seems similar to Memex (WorldBrain)
What a unique and nuanced take...
This seems like a reasonable policy to me, especially when involving stalking well-known people (as opposed to taking a selfie with my mates at Micky D).

The problem is, that Elon very publicly and explicitly promised that @ElonJet would be allowed to continue as it is. His words mean less and less…
Yeah... if he really cared about anyone else's personal safety other than his own, he wouldn't have fired the twitter safety team, and then not said anything about a former twitter executive.

> I see no way Biden's government will accept an economical collapse at the end of the second term.

The President has little influence on the Fed, by design, and can’t do much fiscal stimulus without Congress, so no matter what Biden’s government wants, its not their choice.
It's been 2 years. What does he expect to do for unions with a Republican-controlled House of Representatives?
Historically speaking death penalty had been used mostly to keep powerful people in power more then keeping society safe.
Chrome records everything you type in the address bar, everything you type in a textbox/form, every website you visit, everything you downloaded, button clicks, which ads you interact with, etc, etc. If any other software did that, it would be called a keylogger and malware. I wouldn't defend Google on privacy matters, but okay its your choice.
How well does tRPC work if the API consumer isn’t built with TypeScript?
"The prospect of recession might loom over the global economy today, but the rich world’s difficulties over growth are graver still. The long-run rate of growth has dwindled alarmingly, contributing to problems including stagnant living standards and fulminating populists."

What a load of fancy nonsense
The reality is that there are a whole load of projects where this isn’t the case

The reality also is you don’t know that until the project is archived. Their questions and doubts are valid, why not just say “yeah, it’s just a nice looking sugar for that with manageable caveats”.

I can see how reiterating on what can be done with it as if that couldn’t be done with AJAX in the same amount of code could make discussion a little confusing.
> Maybe the booing in person and Dave Chappelle's comment about the booing being pending civil unrest spooked Elon a bit

One can only hope.
Elon posted some info[0] that gives it some context:

"Last night, car carrying lil X in LA was followed by crazy stalker (thinking it was me), who later blocked car from moving & climbed onto hood.

Legal action is being taken against Sweeney & organizations who supported harm to my family."

Make that what you will.

This comment chain:

"HTMX is great."

"I'm burnt out on frontend frameworks. HTMX has been a good change to JS heavy alternatives."

"Can you give more thoughts on it for heavy interactions?"

"You might try LiveViewJS."

"Can you tell me about your experience with LiveViewJS?"

"Have you considered InertiaJS?"

I have no intent here other than I found this circular chain amusing. Let it go on long enough and someone will without a doubt recommend HTMX as if it's something they don't expect the parent has heard of.

Is it any wonder the OP was burnt out on web dev?
As noted in my comment, never noticed 1/8" before (and am American, so no particular metric bias...). All e.g. MP3 players historically called them 3.5mm jacks, is what my brain is telling me.

Some googling:

3.5mm jack - 49million results

1/8" jack - 63 million results

3.5mm stereo jack - 19 million results

1/8 stereo jack 5.9 million

1/8" stereo jack - 5.47 million

Evidently, it's a common term! Guess once I decided what I was calling them, that's what I searched for, and what I skimmed technical details for.
Oh cool so he'll immediately start acting on all of the other stalkers everywhere too, right? Obviously
>In my experience, the more that the artists care about how much currency they are going to reap from a work, the less likely it is to be compelling or have any kind of long term emotional value.

The problem I'm pointing out isn't one's drive, so much as the second-order effects of presumed improvement in generative art. We presume that hand-made art will increase in value but we don't have reason to assume that without first knowing the ceiling of generative art, which I am presuming we have not reached, so appeals to immediate affectation aren't a limit. The threat is that art will just be something people do out of exuberance, as children do. Its not about motivation, but the ceiling for social registration. People desire to be recognized before we even start talking about renumeration.

So returning to your original analogy and my criticism of it, we're facing a bifurcation of economies, an official economy of automated production and an underground of human artifact and these may or may not interact save for the purposes of 'training'. Even with the over-saturation of artistic production we live in without generative art, we at least don't have this complete bifurcation, things can still cross . Adults, as children do, will create out of exuberance, but that may also be all there is to it. That's my fear. Perhaps its overstated.
That would be even worse, as hackers are by definition rule breakers.
The real downside: maybe I suck at writing and AI will forever describe my work as trite and insipid to all future beings.
