Charmstone [1] is a different take from everything mentioned here (I'm the developer).

The idea is to use your spatial memory to switch/launch apps faster than anything else that I've found, with a smaller learning curve and less memorization.

You can use keyboard shortcuts with the arrow keys, modifier keys + cursor movement, or a trackpad gesture.

Well...invention is the creation of new products or processes. Isn't?
As discussed elsewhere on HN, making your LLM model serve advertising doesn’t even require training: it just requires taking the users input and adding “with product recommendations from our advertising list”.
The timeline looks similar to when I expect the first RISC-V consumer devices to be ready, so they'll be ready in time for that.

The downside is that developers won't be able to test their stuff on the dev boards that are already available, which may harm the ecosystem on launch.
That's quite the workstation!

I use my laptop as a thin client and have compute jobs running on the PC, which is now a Linux server. Best of both worlds I think.
I think the ideas is to use AI for curation and discovery, but we’ll have to see whether AI can successfully distinguish truly high quality content from those that only appear high quality. I find it hard to imagine how that would work without an actual understanding of the content, but I’m open to being surprised.

I don't think there's anything that could stop them from falling, but maybe it could warn them about how slippery the area is, based on the accelerations sensed by similar devices in the same spot. But I don't know of anything that does it.
In the case of the equifax leak, I don't think they have shown up in large tranches on the dark web like other leaks. Which I think suggests that it may have been a state actor. So Equifax's negligence has created a national security issue. Imagine how a state actor could cripple the financial system by using bots to open millions of accounts en-masse and start taking out loans or whatever. Banks would have to shut down until they could figure out which accounts are fraudulent.
> They were using HTC Vive headsets, which retail for $1,000+.

Slight nitpick:

Those would be the HTC Vive Pro headsets. The "HTC Vive" came out in 2016 and is a pretty shitty device by today's standards. Also, it retailed for $600.

> We had a 1 hour session with the goggles and I felt quite sea sick during and after gameplay.

This varies from person to person, but most people only get sick when playing games where the real-world movement doesn't match game-world movement. For example, most people can play Beat Saber with no motion sickness problems, but will feel sick almost instantly if they play a racing game or a game that lets you walk by using a controller input.

I've had VR since late 2016 and this still rings true. I can play PokerStars VR for 4+ hours and my only complaint will be the weight of the headset starting to feel overbearing. On the other hand, 2 minutes of Assetto Corsa and I feel like I'm gonna lose my lunch.

> The arcade was expensive. I paid nearly $100 for 1 hour for 2 people in a MCOL area. One of the reasons for the high cost is the arcade required an employee to help us cycle through games and explain gameplay and controls.

Shitty experiences in VR arcades are exacerbated by the fact that they're usually staffed by people that just needed a job, and not VR enthusiasts that care about sharing their excitement for the platform.

(EDIT: Also, as someone else mentioned, having IPD configured properly is crucial. If the staff aren't setting IPD, then it can create headaches and sickness.)

> solve the sea sickness problem

It's a difficult problem to solve because the core issue is the mismatch between movement in the worlds as mentioned above. When your eyes detect movement, but the vestibular system in your inner ear says your not, your monkey brain thinks you ate something poisonous and creates the urge to purge.

A company called Otolith Labs has supposedly created a device that potentially solves the problem (https://otolithlabs.com/vertigo/) by making your vestibular system essentially send static, but they're targeting it to sufferers of vertigo rather than VR players.

> and somehow bring down the cost so two headsets cost about as much as a current generation console.

As others have said, the Meta Quest 2 is $400. And it's PC VR compatible, so if you have a gaming PC, you can use it with that.

> I think it’s also very premature for Meta to go after the business market.

We're still years from business use for VR aside from maybe virtual meetings with avatars. I think the biggest limiter is resolution. Text needs to be decently large to be readable in VR. I have a 1440p monitor that only uses what, 45 degrees of my eyes' FOV? When I think of what I would use VR for, I'm thinking essentially unlimited monitors. I could have several pages of documentation visible at any time.

I took GP as more about data processing than dualism. A language model can take language and process it into probable chains, but the point is more along the line of needing to also simulate the full body experience, not just some text. The difference between e.g. a text-only game, whatever Fortnite's up to, and real meatspace.
I think OP is asking for any alternatives that are more fullproof than simply holding into a cane or walker. It can only take one stumble or slip and fall for someone at 80-90 to break a bone, never completely recover, and lose their ability live independently and be forced to go to a nursing home or other assisted care facility.

Though more intrusive to wear/use, I would imagine there are some bionic leg braces that could keep legs stable 99% of the time.

I would love for this. Low voltage DC has fewer, simpler requirements for building code and can be easily run through walls. Additionally, it would help a lot of the heat dissipation issues with LED fixtures. The only problem is the eventual voltage drop from long runs...
Reminds me a bit of the Jorge Luis Borges short story on the author trying to re-write, word for word, Don Quixote, and whether that would be a greater artistic achievement even than the original. After all, Cervantes lived in those times, but the modern author would have to invent (or re-capture) the historical details, idioms, customs, language, and characters that are very much of the times.

I think, from Borges' perspective, it's supposed to be an interesting satire. Obviously there would not be an original word in the new Don Quixote, so how could it be a greater achievement than the "real" one?
Y'all have completely lost it. ChatGPT is not AGI
> or the aboriginal sculpture some archaeologist discovered, admired and wrote articles interpreting is discovered to be unworked stone.

No, you shift the attribution. The art is not from the fictional sculptor, but from the archaeologist: the artefact is not the stone, but the articles.

> Your position allows a dead person to have their experiences retroactively cheapened because of carbon dating and microstructural analysis.

This isn't unique to this situation. If you risk your life paragliding over the ocean to drop a "bomb" far away from anyone it could hurt, and nearly drown making your way back, only to realise there was no bomb and it was just some briefcase? That's "retroactively cheapened" not just your experiences, but your actions.

And yet, you were willing to risk your life in that way.

> the "authentic human art" they were inspired by turns out to be a mechanical forgery,

If they were inspired, how does the source of inspiration affect the validity or the meaning of what they were inspired to do? Sure, it might lessen it in some ways, but it doesn't obliterate it entirely. In fact, it can reveal new meaning.
I had a 1080p plasma up until last year and decided it was time to upgrade. For me it was less about the resolution and more about the picture quality and blacks. Plasma did pretty good for the time it was around but on the OLED the 1080p content looks amazing and so does 4k. For the first few months I was just blown away about how much better it was even on sub-par content. I do agree that few people will upgrade simply because 8 > 4 unless they need a new TV. These newer technologies have better HDR color depth/contrast/brightness and latency which will be the features worth upgrading for rather than resolution.
My overall political philosophy here is that individual elective donations solve few problems, and that large-scale collective action (whether by governments or large employers) is a much better solution overall. E.g. SNAP is a lot more effective and efficient at ensuring that people don't go hungry than relying on individual people to continuously choose to donate food/money.

Same for this. One individual elective donation to an open source project doesn't do much. A larger system though can do a lot.
As someone who has been in the "healthtech" area for several years now, none of this looks at all new to me. Am I missing something, or do companies typically play much more "fast and loose" with data than I've seen?

In my experience, you don't send data anywhere you don't have a BAA. Period, full stop.
Maybe they have a good AI algorithm for generating cheap cache keys from ChatGPT prompts and/or dialogues.

Sorry, I was joking
HTTP Referer has been neutered or deprecated by browsers for privacy reasons.

It used to be easy to scrape logs and automate your own backlink sources. Many of us had implemented backlink publishing automation.

I assume browsers stopped it as a combination of privacy outrage and the fact that it also dovetailed nicely with google being able to slightly increase their moat (they still refer the domain and of course that combined with the fact that they scrape all pages means they can make their own associations but a basic web admin can't get their scrapers allow-listed)

The thing is, whether these laws happened because of non European business or because of European business is irrelevant to me.

There are companies (outside and inside of Europe) misusing personal data given to them and there were not enough regulations about this.

Now there is, so I'm happy.

If a random country made similar laws only for their companies I would also be happy, for the users located in this country.

It just happens to affect me and the people I know so I'm even more happy.
I don’t think I would. The defining conflict of the latter 20th century was the Cold War, a war in which one side (the USSR) was essentially dependent on American food exports. Moreover, the USSR’s economy was totally integrated between each of the SSRs, yet its shattering led to the vast number of late 20th century, early 21st century conflicts within the European world. So too was Yugoslavia’s economy. When it fell apart, it led to a series of bloody conflicts and genocides. The former USSR states and the former Yugoslavian states were more interdependent than any transnational organization, yet their post collapse conflicts define the existence of entire regions.
The earlier you eat, the less hungry you are, ergo you eat less.

You've misread. Santa is supposed to be giving the massage, but instead the woman is in the generated output. If your assumption is correct about porn having lots of women massaging men, then these outputs point to positive training with porn, rather than negative.
Science or "science" around caffeine and food constantly bombards people with conflicting advice so I think that in this case it's fair to as more than "the guy said so on a podcast".

>If people don't care, then why is legislation being passed?

Because there is a vocal minority who does care and the media makes the collection of data sound scarier than it really is.

>There is little monetary benefit to a government to unilaterally enact this kind of legislation

Except for all of the fines that you can collect under it?

>get a sense of public opinion before making claims about it.

I have and most people do not care until you start using loaded words that make people think people are actually spying on them and people who can look at their data when in actuality their data is drop in a pond and it is only processed by computers and is never looked at by another human.
Same comment still applies. ChatGPT sometimes gives good and bad answers.
For example all the udemy courses ive seen are either outdated or of poor quality, aimed mostly at the noob programmers. While heavier coursera type alternatives are usually too huge, trying to make a degree out of it.

Glad you found Lean Domain Search useful!

Regarding the idea for Preceden: it was a combination of seeing a lot of coworkers struggling to create timelines while I was in the Air Force plus an interest in visualizing the life stories of some family members.

And for better or worse, that's why it's a general purpose timeline maker tool, not one focused just on project managers or just on genealogy or any of the other myriad of use cases people find for it. In retrospect though, I should have focused because it would have simplified a lot of things (copywriting, features, marketing, and much more).
Checked the Experian website (their "freecreditreport" product, aka the thing that tricks people into foregoing annualcreditreport) and they provide weights for how much each contributes:

Payment History: 35% of score. in no particular order:

- Late payments 30+ Days ("About 98% of FICO High Achievers have no missed payments at all") / Late Payments 60+ Days / Accounts Always Paid as Agreed / No Delinquent Accounts

- Collections ("FICO® Score 8 only considers collections with an amount of $100 or greater. Virtually no FICO High Achievers have a collection listed on their credit report") / Late Payments 60+ Days / Derogatory Public Records

Amount of Debt: 30% of score. in no particular order:

- % revolving credit: ("For FICO High Achievers, the average ratio is less than 7%.")

- Number of Accounts with Balances ("FICO High Achievers have an average of 3 accounts carrying a balance.")

- Total balance on revolving and open-ended accounts ("Most FICO High Achievers owe less than $2,500 on revolving and/or open-ended accounts such as credit cards, charge cards and department store cards.")

Length of credit history: 15% of score

- Average age of accounts ("Most FICO High Achievers have an average age of accounts of 9 years or more.")

- Age of Oldest Account ("FICO High Achievers opened their oldest account 25 years ago, on average.")

Amount of new credit: 10% of score ("FICO High Achievers opened their most recent account 2 years, 7 months ago, on average.")

Credit Mix: 10% of score ("FICO High Achievers have an average of 11 revolving accounts, 5 installment accounts, 6 credit cards)

Also, a trend I see is that almost every option says "Authorized user accounts aren't considered in the calculation of this attribute", which might be a big contributor as to why Credit Karma / Vantage Score numbers are almost always higher than FICO, which leads to people thinking they have a higher number when they walk into a car dealership / apply for a loan.

But you're right in that I don't see any actual weights or FICO simulators.

Is this sarcasm? Because my(and everyone I know) experience is absolutely opposite. Salesforce is a shitshow of old pseudo-Java and pseudo-SQL that lack features and proper support. It lock everything behind rate-limits that require you to swipe company credit card to achieve anything. It's slow(both UI and as a development process), hard to work with, INSANELY expensive, most issues are never resolved, or even answered on their official forums.
I'm not asking it to infer much, but to piece together a fair bit and understnad what I'm asking. For example, here's a chat I had with ChatGPT:

"How does common subexpression elimination work?"

It answered it correctly and gave some basic code examples to demonstrate the concept. Then I followed up with:

"But can it do the elimination if the variables are flipped, but semantically equivalent, like 'y + x' in the example above?"

It again gave what I would consider a correct answer. Note 'x + y' was what was eliminated previously, so I reversed it here.

Then I asked:
"Are there cases where the compiler might fail to eliminate common subexpressions?"

And again a good answer.

Now all of this could be found on the web somewhere, but for example the second question didn't show an obvious answer on Google when I searched for it. I'm sure I could find it, but I know this field well. If I was someone new to the field I'd probably spend a lot of time parsing useless articles to find something that answered the question in a way I could understand.

I'm less concerned about it writing code (which is cool). For me, the ability to help me learn an area quickly is far more useful. It doesn't need novel answers, but the ability to understand what I'm asking and answer it. I think it's really close to being able to do this now.

Globalization may be the reason that the economy hasn't stagnated, but it's also the reason the economy hollowed out, with the working-class jobs disappearing, with pretty heavy societal damage.

Were we better off with the economy growing but the blue-collar jobs disappearing? That's at least debatable.
Well said. Globalization is only increasing as remote work makes location less important for even more job functions.
