> On the client side it was Netscape that broke MS' monopoly with Internet Explorer

What? Microsoft completely obliterated Netscape, which was dominant before IE. In the early 2000s IE had like ~95% market share. Later Mozilla Firefox turned that around, but only after they made the steaming pile of shit that was Netscape vaguely decent, which took a few years.

I understand your point but you're off-topic.

The question is what retains credibility in this climate, not where the technical innovation is. You mentioned Mina elsewhere. You think Mina has more credibility than Bitcoin right now? Absolutely not.

1. In your analogy a company is processing resources that humans didn’t create. Dead biomass from ages ago is not a fruit of your work, though note that even then you would expect extracting those resources from the ground to be taxed and proceeds to benefit you if you happen to be living on said ground.

2. Unlike petrol vs. raw oil, LLM output is not necessarily “better” than its source material. Indeed there’re plenty of authors that did both extensive work and eloquently written about it, so when LLM is asked a question on the topic their work is among the very few sources—when I am talking about LLM attributing output, I mostly mean instances like these (not when LLM aggregates some really common knowledge).

The danger I described is when people are no longer motivated to do such work in the open, assuming it’s then scraped and monetized by LLM operators—or worse, undetectably modified by LLM designers to inject sentiment the original author didn’t subscribe to.
> If Bitwarden default is not safe, the software should not be used.

The definition of "safe" depends on your risk model; what is appropriate for people named Snowden is not necessarily appropriate for many others.
I believe snow could be moved with far less energy.

Today's snow ploughs use a lot of force.

But perhaps with better engineering, new ways to move snow could be invented - for example conveyor systems that move and compact the snow.

Theoretically you can generate power by compacting snow, since the stuff at the top has gravitational potential energy and gives it up when compacted down. Find a way to collect that, and your snowploughs won't need any recharging.
> What makes you think the computer doesn't suffer ?

Lack of a limbic system? They only predict using probabilistic models. After this long partial sentence, which word is more probable? That's all they do.

Without conscience there's no suffering, there's no one to suffer (yet).

I don't think or say it is impossible for the computer to suffer.

What I say is: this has not been implemented yet, and what you describe is just the old anthropomorphizing people always do.

> It allows you to make cool web pages, and that is a very attractive thing for people

This is the most misinformed take on what Java is used for I have seen on HN. Today Java is used by FAANG and other tech shops. It's employed in the enterprise, science and finance. What it is almost never used for is creating "cool web pages"

> It would be interesting to see a list of unsuccessful small teams as a point of reference.

I guess it depends on what you call success. Most businesses are mom and pop businesses that generate enough revenue to pay their employees the market rate in the long run. And I’m including tech businesses.

Most flourishing economies in the world are composed essentially of small successful and sustainable businesses.

To me, that is success.

I know that a lot of people here live in the SV echo chamber (nothing pejorative, we all live in an echo chamber) but in fact being big is the exception, not the norm.

I’d even argue that most "rich/comfortable" people in the world are not tech founders but are just at the head of 0 to 10 employees businesses. I’d guess they call this success.

Internet Explorer dominated for years. Microsoft killed Netscape not the other way around.

Mozilla helped with the downfall of IE but it was really Google that put the final nail in the coffin.

As for backend, Microsoft had some systems running IIS and Apache can run on Windows Server too, but UNIX and Linux was always the dominant platform for web hosting. Java didn’t change anything there.

Javas impact on Windows can be felt more with .NET, which started life as a direct competitor to Java, after Microsoft was taken to court for their own proprietary implementation of Java (if I recall that part correctly). There was a time when you’d have to select which Java engine you wanted your browser to use and Microsoft Java (or whatever it was called) and Sun Java weren’t fully compatible with each other.

Show HN: A GPT-3 mobile-friendly resume builder
Hey HN,

When I graduated as a software engineer in 2020, I was really struggling to get job interviews. I spent so much time iterating on my CV, trying to find the perfect way to present my experiences and skills. It was really hard to sell myself, and I found it really stressful trying to come up with the perfect bullet points for my resume.

It was during this time that the idea for Resume Studio came to me. I realized that so many people must be going through the same struggles I was, and I wanted to help them. So, I decided to create a service that would help people create powerful, effective resumes that would help them land the job they wanted. And then I discovered GPT-3 and all the mind blowing stuff that can come out of It, and I figured It could be a great help in that matter.

Resume Studio is now on Its first iteration and there's a lot of fun and exciting functionalities/ideas that are soon coming. And I'm happy to get your feedbacks and suggestions
I'm all in for renewables, our state and the state next door (W.Aus amd S.Aus) have already had week long runs of being in excess of 100% renewable (exporting the execess via grid) ..

But ..

> The renewable industry is definitely getting a free ride.

is true.

Maybe people will start to care about the by products of solar panel and battery construction (acres upon acres of toxic slag heap) or the new mines that will have to opened on indigenous and treaty lands to satisfy copper and other demands.

Sure, realistically, probably not .. but renewables aren't all sunshine and kittens.
Imo it's the same problem at the root: for hard pursuits like teaching or playing music, it's very very hard to get good at it unless you are passionate. Most jobs today are repulsive, instead of attractive, which further deepens the problem.

No it is not “clear”.
I blame the grant funding process. What gets published is what gets funded when written up as a grant proposal. What gets written up as a grant proposal is what is called for by grant funding agencies for their own research initiatives. If you want disruptive science, fund it then. That's all everyone wants to do in science, but the bills need to be payed somehow, so you play the game the funding agencies want you to play.
> They probably also don't want to expose it to users at all because of marketing.

It's incredibly intellectually lazy to suggest 'marketing'.

Apple's ideology has always been that regular, everyday computer users shouldn't have to concern themselves with low-level details of system administration in order to write a book or edit a video or whatever it is they're doing.

In addition, unless they have some breakthrough, elegant or innovative way of addressing stuff, they leave it to 3rd-party developers.

It's also myopic to complain about something as low-level as malware remediation while glossing over the fact that Apple enabled end-to-end encryption for iCloud [1] and gave users who aren't system administrators or security experts the ability to protect themselves if they are the target of a state level attacker [2].

Addressing security/privacy at this level is a very Apple thing to do.

In my opinion, it should be a no-brainer: end-to-end encryption and protection from state-level attackers vs a widget that alerts me the OS zapped a malware download.

As far as malware on macOS goes, having the operating system deal with this unbeknown to the user is actually a good thing for those everyday, regular users, who would probably screw things up worse if they had to play some direct role in this.

BUT for system administrators, developers and power users, the APIs and command line tools are there for them to get into the weeds of malware remediation if they want to.

> it's an unfalsifable claim, so it should be ignored in a context of formal logic

The claim might be unfalsifiable, but the question is still valid. Basically you are required to answer the question. If you answer "I can't know" your answer is also unfalsifiable, and no better than theirs.

i.e. your position on this matter is not superior to theirs.

They don't have anything in mind except some points located in a vector space.

This is because the location of the points is all the meaning the machine ever perceives. It has no relation with external perception of shared experiences like we have.

A given point can mean 'red colour', but that's just empty words, as the computer doesn't perceive red colour, doesn't wear a red cap, doesn't feel attracted to red lips, doesn't remember the smell of red roses, it knows nothing that's not text.

As a kid (7-8) I was forced to play acoustic guitar for several years. I didnt like any of the music (or much music at all) that I played, and ended up quitting.

Later on when I discovered rock and metal music I asked my parents for an electric guitar but they refused, saying I had to play the acoustic I had first and then I could ‘progress’ to electric. I was easily discouraged then so I gave up the idea.

I didnt end up getting an electric guitar and starting to play music seriously until after university when I had a job and could afford it easily myself. Now I play almost every day, learning new things, writing my own little pieces, and jamming with friends. Music is now one of the most fulfilling things in my life, and I believe one of my biggest regrets will be waiting so long to get started after I knew what I wanted!
> By your logic absolutely anything that is written down is not a forgery so long as the author believes the claims in its writings sincerely enough.

Yes, that's correct.

I think you need to grab a dictionary and lookup what the word "forgery" means. From your replies it's clear you are using an incorrect definition.

I will accept the job. React and Vue are not that different.
A "housing shortage in desirable metros" is moving the goal posts. The claim was that unaffordable housing can only be attributed to a shortage and has nothing to do with massively increased wealth gaps nor the shrinking middle class.

"Most countries aren't America" is just an excuse. Most European countries aren't Germany. So by that reasoning most European countries can't afford education or healthcare.

Here's what really makes the US different: most countries don't have America's massive wealth gaps. That's the real cause.
It is not emotion at all.

It is an expression of emotion.

The fact that humans confuse both is what is worrisome.

In fact, something that newer generations might miss out is that Sun was the first UNIX vendor to create the separation of user and developer SKUs, which other UNIX vendors were rather quick to adopt.

It was this split of the UNIX SDK into a separate commercial package that eventually fuelled the GCC contributions, until then largely ignored.

We often hear startups with mission to kill and goliath company slow moving slow. The email shows how it is actually impossible to do that and you have to create a market to grow.

Ask ChatGPT if it's an AGI, and it will tell you plainly that it is not, and why.

Here's GPT's response:

No, ChatGPT is not an AGI (Artificial General Intelligence). It is a large language model that has been trained to predict the next word in a sequence of text given the previous words. While ChatGPT has been trained on a diverse range of text data and is able to generate human-like text, it is not capable of understanding or learning about the world in the way that a human does. It does not have the ability to reason, plan, or solve problems in a general way. Instead, it is specifically designed to generate text based on patterns it has learned from the data it was trained on.
From the comments below, I am fast coming to conclusions that it is impossible to get a rational clear headed discussion on Elon in HN
Plenty of stories in the Bible have historical basis

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historicity_of_the_Bible

Imagine you are trying to assemble a history of Ancient Rome. You have inscriptions, 5% of the literature (a patchy mix of non-fiction and fiction, and the non-fiction is open to a lot of interpretation), and various secondary sources that summarize and write about primary sources that are lost to time. You also have archeological digs.

Now apply that same scientific mind to the Bible. A group of people decided what was in and what was out. If you can prove what they thought was valid because so-and-so apostle or a related person wrote it, and we can determine they did not, it’s certainly interesting even without the religious element.

If Microsoft hadn't existed, everyone would be bitching just the same about whichever tech titan would have formed in their absence and erecting tombstones of their founders. It's not as if any of the other wannabes jockeying for power in that era would have had any hesitation in using their dominance anti-competitively either if they had gotten it. Even a certain scrappy don't-be-evil business that hackers were cheerleading at the time didn't manage to resist the lure of leveraging their market dominance.
It depends what you're building.
The Book of Enoch certainly has mystique, but even the brief mentions of Enoch in canonical scripture attract a lot of commentary, because they say he never died:

“Thus all the days that Adam lived were 930 years, and he died.” (Genesis 5:5, ESV)

“Thus all the days of Seth were 912 years, and he died.” (Genesis 5:8, ESV)

“Thus all the days of Enosh were 905 years, and he died.” (Genesis 5:11, ESV)

“Thus all the days of Kenan were 910 years, and he died.” (Genesis 5:14, ESV)

“Thus all the days of Mahalalel were 895 years, and he died.” (Genesis 5:17, ESV)

“Thus all the days of Jared were 962 years, and he died.” (Genesis 5:20, ESV)

“Thus all the days of Enoch were 365 years. Enoch walked with God, and he was not, for God took him.” (Genesis 5:23–24, ESV)

“Thus all the days of Methuselah were 969 years, and he died.” (Genesis 5:27, ESV)

“Thus all the days of Lamech were 777 years, and he died.” (Genesis 5:31, ESV)

The Bible only describes one other human, Elijah, as leaving Earth without having died. (Even Jesus died!)
This is not offered as some sort of authentication mechanism, the distinguishing quality of art as opposed to a pretty thing is art fundamentally being a way of self-expression, which is inevitably communication. There’s no self-expression when there’s no self to express. If there’s no human on either side, there’s no communication and it’s not art. One may find an object pretty and hang it on the wall, but that doesn’t make that object “art”.

The “complicated” case you hint at is not complicated: if people are misled into thinking some object has been produced by a human while it’s raw output of a neural network without human intervention then it’s not art, no matter how many people assume it’s art. If a machine produced a piece of art that is a frankenstein monster of art pieces, then we are not looking at art.

(And of course if a machine produced a piece of art identical to a piece of art produced by a human before then we’re effectively looking at a piece of art produced by that human.)

Per above, couldn’t be further from the truth as far as I’m concerned, but you do you.
