Not sure I entirely agree. Imagine there's a trainable skill like writing, and GPT can write at low-intermediate level, but can't at high level. How do you test students before they completed intermediate level?
Looking through the comments on this post, it's no surprise that many HN readers are doing the same. A self selected audience, I guess ;-)

Still, it has been fun, and rewarding. I don't feel like building these things is a waste of time, seriously.

Good, I put all my code on GitHub under the MIT license because I'd like people to be able to use it as they see fit.

That doesn't include not giving me credit.
Except that you can and are encouraged to question!

But if you were to tumble upon a magic pill that cures cancer, and you tested it extensively and indeed does so without any ill effect, would you wait to really understand the molecular mechanism of it before administering it?
That requires the uploader to own copyright on that code. What if the uploader only has access to the code through the license?
Depends what you get beside storing links I suppose (cached version of content, super smart search function not limited to og: and metadata tags, super privacy, bridges to-do app maybe ?, android app + ff ext. + chr. ext. + apple thingies for ubiquitous access to links, etc.). I could see myself dropping ~10bucks a year like for bitwarden.
I've fall into hole between rich state (when such clubs were comparably-well-funded) and rich parents and full shops (when it become possible to buy materials, engines, etc., for money of participants themselves), so our small local club has only 2 working carbureted compression ignition engines (it is named so in English according to Wikipedia) and one glow-plug engine, all other were cannibalized for parts...
And how do they deal with the tank of explosive fluids inside fire trucks today?

Precautions around keeping a fuel tank from catching fire work the same for batteries. Better, because lithium batteries have an ignition temperature at 2000F and gasoline's is 500F and diesel at 410F.
For whom is that a problem, in this case? If you have a hallucinating computer do your test and it doesn’t work out for you, that’s on you.
I am learning a JS game dev platform and ChatGPT has been a GREAT help, even though it’s only right 90% of the time.

It cooler if it were an “auto-answer” tool for Stack Overflow. That way I could still get instant answers, and the community could asynchronously validate the answers.
In EU i think this is the main reason. The prices have rised with almost 50% for some cars while the salaries remained the same. It is going to be though in the future.
Are mathematics students allowed to use calculators, or did they ban those too?
Unfortunately the article doesn't answer the important question of "where did they go?".
You misunderstood the statistics.

“As many as 828 million people were affected by hunger in 2021”

This is not equivalent to saying 828 million people are experiencing hunter at the same time. Your conflating the two is exactly the way these statistics get severely distorted.

“Figures on actual starvation are difficult to come by, but according to the Food and Agriculture Organization, the less severe condition of undernourishment currently affects about 842 million people, or about one in eight (12.5%) people in the world population.[6] “ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starvation

Inequality isn’t the same as starvation, in the last 40 years inequality grew while starvation dramatically declined.
“In 40 years, the proportion of malnourished people in the developing world has been more than halved. The proportion of starving people has decreased even faster.”
Only in codepoints, but it still has the problem GP mentions of ` + e = è being two codepoints (so two elements in UCS-32), but being logically one character

If you can't correctly implement a circular buffer with mod (or 'and') then the language can't save you, nothing can.
You can care about what you want, it's just that most people do care (because of their children etc.)
> You people still do not seem to understand the fundamental point: you see things from a vantage other people cannot, and it's insane to demand that every random member of society have this degree of sophistication about tech meets securities fraud, doubly so when major media outlets have been hyping this stuff for years uncritically.

It's not “cannot” but “choose not to”. Continuously throughout this process anyone with a high-school level econ education knew that cryptocurrencies were a high-risk investment and, in most cases, could not possibly deliver the advertised benefits. The fact that some people in the media hyped it up didn't mean that you couldn't listen to the many people in the media who urged caution, or remember that those same people hyping it up had a history of being wrong about other things as well. People _wanted_ to believe there was a way to make a ton of money without doing any real work and so they _chose_ only to listen to the bulls. Hopefully the lesson wasn't too expensive for most of them but it's important to remember that throughout this process there was no specialized education or skill needed to understand that meteoric returns are not sustainable long-term and speculation always involves risk. The same skills which kept your great grandfather from buying swamp land in Florida or “investing” in a 90mph carburetor design worked here, too.

That's the problem with the “My relative that I trust and love, that has a successful career doing tech stuff, says this all is a good idea.” stuff — it's tragic when that happened but those kind of sales pitches (and, let's be honest, that's what that was) were someone urging their relatives not to listen to the sober voices. We don't need to make excuses on behalf of the people who mislead their friends and family to make a buck.
Large Language Models like GPT-3 should be able to compete with specialized models on a lot of Natural Language Processing tasks without fine tuning ( Zero Shot Learning ) .

So I did a benchmark in order to verify that on four tasks : Keywords Extraction, Sentiment Analysis, language detection and translation against state of the art proprietary models from different companies like Google, Amazon, Microsoft, DeepL ...etc

Of course, with fine tuning the results should be better, but that's not the challenge here .

I'd love to know if anyone did this for other tasks like summarization or question answering ?
Re... restore all !
I suspect that a lot of the people lining up on the other side against GitHub/Microsoft won't be so happy if the courts further lock down permissible uses under copyright across the board.

More specifically, if Copilot breaks the "rules," so too does (probably--IANAL) pretty much every generative AI project out there. Restricting training to public domain datasets would be very limiting.
> where you often do with copilot

Not at all. You need to bait it really hard and push it into a corner for it to reproduce anything. At that point you might just as well go to the repo and copypaste the code directly.

I've used Copilot since day one and still haven't seen anything that felt like a 1 to 1 copy of something. It's highly contextual and all about using the code I have already written to craft its suggestions. Even if I ask it explicitly for a known algorithm it will use my code style, patterns and naming conventions to write it.
I would love to see that setup! Can you share it please? I may want to do that as well
I have the same habit and wrote a web app to catalog the links I come across:

Paragraph #3.
The article doesn't say to call an API without hypermedia a "level 2 REST API"; in fact it says the exact opposite.

> I should stress that the RMM, while a good way to think about what the elements of REST, is not a definition of levels of REST itself. Roy Fielding has made it clear that level 3 RMM is a pre-condition of REST.
Who's more entitled? The coder who has no issue with their unoriginal code being copied and mixed with millions of other samples and churned out in a helpful way for others, or the one who demands attribution in the most trivial of cases, or denies the access in these forms as it doesn't credit their brilliance in implementing a sort function?

I'm in the first category; I'm guessing by your abusive response you are in the second?
In my home I use a Synology NAS for local home files, organizing pdf libraries, backing up GOG and steam games, mirroring google drive.
I also backup my home folders with Vorta and Borg.
I used to backup Fedora RPMs based on what I had installed, but since switching to openSUSE I haven't mirrored any of their repos. Thanks to capableweb's comment I'm going to go do that now!
Don't be indispensable, that's irresponsible.
The most extreme heatwave in European history just happened this past week. The point of this article isn't that weather changes day to day or week to week. The point is this is a metaphor for the absurdity of the situation

Make students write in the classroom using a pen and paper? Isn’t that more or less the standard at low-intermediate level?
Is a paraphrase from a john chrysostom sermon? It sounds so familiar but from a completely different context and I can't quite place it. It definitely stuck with me the first time I heard it too, and grappling with the negative side of curiosity has been valuable for me.
Anecdotally - in my area, private school attendance has surged. I know other families who have taken to home schooling.

My son is in a private middle school. There's a good chance they wouldn't be in private middle school if the pandemic didn't happen. He was very frustrated being at home with Mom and Dad. After a year, he was getting very angry and depressed. I didn't expect to be paying for private school, but given his situation, here we are...
For others replying here: looking through this user's comment history, pretty much all of their comments are equally snarky and troll-ish.

For the parent: this is very much not appreciated here on HN. Take it elsewhere.
I'm mostly finished rebuilding mine and very happy with it.

Right now, it's just Plex & Next Cloud available within my network but Home Assistant is next on the agenda to tie into my devices. I also have Dropbox to keep a couple of the folders in sync so I can drop files on any computer and it will come back to there. I'm looking into some Ubiquity cameras & security too.

All of it is fronted by ngrok - with Google OAuth for auth - to make it available to the select people in the outside world.
I remember reading stories about this posted to HN and many comments worrying about the trend. Seems appropriate to post that it wasn’t true.
I think the main difference is a proper domain from a major registrar grants you ownership rights that you don't get from leased subdomains like OP's (mainly the ability to keep the domain even if the registrar goes out of business; and moving the domain between registrars).
Proof reading and correcting typos shouldn’t be considered authoring, but it is what it is.
This depends on the books that you're getting the 'highest learnings' from. If you're reading a bunch of biographies and self-help, you'll end up with notes that are simultaneously less interesting and more grandiose than if you do the same thing while reading math, science or real (non-biography/non-inspirational) history and anthropology books.

i.e. don't record "wisdom," record information.
I've done this before and it works in a pinch, but I didn't think it was reliable enough to use on a permanent basis. I added a USB WiFi interface, and that helped with the signal quite a bit. Setting up the AP and networking isn't trivial (but is certainly do-able if you're familiar with linux networking).

My use case was using it to connect my family's devices to an AirBNB network. I used the Rpi as a bridge to the host WiFi. This way I could keep a common SSID/password and didn't have to reconfigure all of my kid's devices. It kinda worked.

However, it wasn't very reliable and had poor range and performance. The Rpi was meh with one client attached, but it was bleh with more than one. I ended up replacing it quickly with a cheap dedicated AP that I flashed with openwrt. Much easier, and device-wise was cheaper too.
I would be very curious to hear from a Fastmail rep on this as my demo account never did anything like this to my recollection, though that was a long time ago at this point and I’ve been a happy subscriber for 5+ years.

I'm not sure what he made, but it was his first job so I'd imagine it was pretty terrible.

Actually, I think he would have moved on from that job a lot earlier except that the owners paid for him to get his pilots license and then paid him to fly -- something I know he really loved.

He eventually created his own startup outfitting (mostly automotive) manufacturing plants with ... just about anything. His company (being that it was actually his) also paid him to fly to various far flung (often rural) automotive plants -- it was often a business advantage that my Dad could drive 30m to the airport where his plane was stored and fly to a plant in any of the bordering states in as little as 30 minutes.

I recall a story where one of the plants was 2-3 hours from any airport you could get a commercial flight into, and you always had to connect at Chicago O'Hare[0]. The only way to get there for day shift was to take the earliest flight out, but that flight was always cancelled and everyone was tossed on the next flight that left 2 hours later. Some days took 10 hours flying commercial ... it's like a 12 hour drive from here. When the plane was available[1], there was a small landing strip 10 minutes from the plant. I'm guessing it was 3-4 hours in the air (and a lot of time over Lake Michigan) in the Piper Cherokee but I have no idea ... it no more than 40 minutes of driving, though!

[0] Which, apparently, was folly at every turn.

[1] He shared it with a few other men but his company was the one using it the vast majority of the time.
Take the most complex thing that person does, and take it away from them. Task two or three capable but junior people that task and accept they might stuff it up. Try to create a low pressure environment. However, they will learn a lot and you'll de risk your key person problem.
- Home Assistant

I "smart home"-d my apartment a little and prioritized aesthetics/tactile feel over technical simplicity. So I have some Lutron light switches (proprietary protocol), a couple of Zigbee ceiling fans and an Ecobee thermostat. I'm not crazy about Home Assistant itself but it lets me bring all those things together and export it all to HomeKit, which the means by which everyone actually uses the stuff.

- Plex

Most of our media consumption these days is via streaming services. I use Plex as a DVR for over-the-air TV and it's mostly competent at it. I'd much rather be using Channels but it's a $60/year subscription (vs a $120 lifetime pass for Plex) and we just don't watch enough OTA TV to justify it.
Exactly, nobody is making new players with the quality of the old stalwarts (Sony, Aiwa, Sanyo), everything new on the market is Chinese garbage that's not fit to reproduce simple voice recordings, nevermind music.

So one has to hunt down used equipment which comes with its own set of issues (besides exorbitant prices) as there is wear and tear to account for and components that need to be replaced.
It's one of the very annoying quirks of language that if enough people call an apple an orange, suddenly "orange" also means "apple". I hate it but there's not a lot we can do about it.
Companies aren’t people (even if they are legally defined as such) so you can’t treat the way you fine them equally.

The most likely of which – if this lawsuit ends up winning – is that corporations will have new ways to sue everyone and that the world will be a worse place.

Copyright expansion has never benefited the "little guy" such as Open Source authors, only large entities with deep pockets who can litigate to no end.
This seems like me not taking the insurance money after the hail storm, and watching all my neighbors put free new roofs on. My insurance premiums go up anyway because of them, but I can feel good about myself paying for my roof out of pocket in a few years.
Yes, for specifics (I still run a 50" Plasma "in the garage,
" which was recently replaced with a 55" OLED 4K):

50" Plasma: 290-430 watts, depending on image; refresh rate is SLOW & obvious; I only run this in the wintertime, for "space heating"

55" OLED: 90 watts, twice as bright; colors are INCREDIBLE, almost as good as my ICR10 monitor that costs 3x per pixel;

The 55" OLED has the same pixel density as a 30" Cinema Display, but the pixels are brighter and take up more of the area (i.e. there isn't as much "support network" / black) and is obviously 4K.
There has to be an option or something like "repositoy opt-out from copilot" type of button.
Because setting up your own covert network to bypass institutional bots is cyberpunk AF.

To be fair, "last 5-10 years" is pretty new. I doubt such measures were needed even a few decades ago.
You really need to contextualize the working class to the area we're in. Comparing your situation to the entire world's is a bit reductionist and useless as a comparison.
For the benevolent dictator, they surround themselves with like-minded lieutenants (not the coup d'etat-inclined, but mutual respect and trust kind).

But for software engineering in general, you want a culture of people focused on working as a team towards the mission, not on individual metrics/career. This affects what you do, how you to it, how you document it, how you make decisions, etc. If there's no immediate plan for what to do when the lead dev not available, they'll figure it out.

Yeah it mostly has to do with the fact all the historical tape player manufacturers are either closed or moved out to newer technology.

I researched a similar device some time ago and I only found "We Are Rewind" selling a "modern" tape player but from what I understood the sound quality is not on-par with the best portable tape players from the 90's and such.
switzerlandtimes.ch does not show up in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_newspapers_in_Switzerl... , which suggests its credibility is well under that of Blick or the train papers.

I use kde with the default theme, but was quite happy with Gnome 2. Honestly most of my complaints aren't about gnome, gnome can do what it wants, they're about gtk apps (like Firefox) that are forced to adopt to terrible gnome conventions just because they use gtk. For example gnomes Terri terrible file picker.
Really happy for these guys and the reward for their passionate dedication to the game and community.
At my start-up I got pretty much no time to train my replacement before I left. I was the technical founder / lead dev / software architect. Pretty much the entire application came from and lived in my brain.

They're still up and running and doing really well.

Edit: So it doesn't seem like this is because I documented everything well and code was good. That wasn't the case. They just managed.
My home server is connected to my TV, so I can have a fully functional desktop environment when watching media. Probably the most useful thing on it is a little Arduino that's hooked up to a Django REST API that I can use to control my TV (lost the remote years ago).

Also the server itself is my ancient T530, which is still quite snappy on Arch!

Here's the remote code, for anyone interested: https://github.com/ijustlovemath/arduino-remote
Yes, exactly. Problem being that it does not fry with air, but with the oil that you need to put in it anyway to fry your chips. That's the thing to be debunked, that air can not fry anything and to fry you need oil or grease.
Seems that almost everybody is blindly believing to the marketing name instead of actually realising that the item is still frying with oil. The oil that they put in it. C'mon.
It's not just public school, but in general many forms of social capital[1] have taken a huge hit and will take a while to recover. Other kinds of social interaction and organization have taken a hit. Whether its local tech meetups, your school's PTA, concerts, farmers markets, etc, society has taken a hit. We see the impact in heightened crime, panhandling, and other signs of social distress. Even these small, seemingly trivial, kinds of organized social interactions created community and a chance for people to actually care about the state of organized society.

Pre pandemic, I feel we were in a positive cycle of renewed cities, increased social capital. Now it feels like we're in a negative cycle of people avoiding each other, leading to negative feedback loops and lack of social support.
