There are plenty of substitutions that are plausible as a bit-flip but much less plausible as a human typo. For a popular service or large company, the percentage of such errors can be very small while still resulting in a high absolute number of misdirected e-mails.
I went to a small, vaguely religious, liberal arts school and one of my classmates who I didn't know well but was friendly with was heading to medical school after college. During our graduation ceremonies, he surprised most by leaving the student section and taking his seat behind the organ at the church our ceremony was in and just slayed the ivories (are organ keys called ivories?). It was phenomenal.

After the official program, he was just messing around playing popular music and shooting the shit with everyone for another hour or two. It turned out he was a biochem major, chemistry & liturgical organ minor. Pipe organs seem like such magical instruments, I'm always shocked when I meet someone who can play one.
Simplicity isn't a measure of quality. I have a "pro" $800 espresso machine with lots of fancy functions that is used many times a day and has been working perfectly with near zero maintenance for >10 years now. I can guarantee that the author's simple $12 drip coffee maker from Amazon is going to the landfill well before that.

The problem really is that brands like Keurig are packaging these same $12 machines for $100-150, and add useless half-baked features to justify the price. Same can be said for plenty of other companies that built a reputation for quality 20+ years ago and are now trading that for a quick buck by cutting costs and sacrificing product quality. It's ultimately up to the consumer to be diligent and do their research before buying. Plenty of companies are making solid coffee machines today – Breville, Bonavita, Baratza, Gaggia, La Marzocco, Ninja, Bialetti, OXO.

Ask HN: Do you use unusual sites/apps as a search engine?
Apparently many (predominantly younger) people use TikTok as a search engine. I've never used social media, so I don't see the appeal, but more recently I've started to use HN as a kind of search engine.

I mostly use it when I want to find software (there's plenty of software projects posted here because of Show HN), but I also search for specific topics and keywords, hoping that interesting results might pop up.

I think, that for me, the appeal is knowing that many HN posts are really interesting and things that you wouldn't find on a normal search engine. Search engines, like Google, have become very commercial and because I delete cookies, google does always deliever the best results (this is only in my case).

Is this a techie issue? When I got my first relative high paying job I was quick to loan money. I think I felt a bit guilty so I felt I could help others. In time I stopped but looking back I loaned money to people that could not manage their finances and wasted their money rather than people that truly needed it. I never got a penny repaid. I guess it's a live and learn situation. Now it would take a lot for me to lend money. It's not likely to happen.

I _constantly_ try to evaluate where I stand with people. If they bought the most recent round of drinks, the next one is on me. If we split dinner, I'm thinking about how their total averaged out compared to mine. If I paid for something, I'm thinking about how much I add to their ledger. I have a "disadvantange" threshold of ~$100 where I won't say anything, but if the imbalance continues to tilt in their favor and they don't do anything to correct it, I might start insulating myself from their financial involvement..

I'm sure most people don't care about it as much as I do, but I have this deep-seated need to make sure I'm as square with as many people as I can be and I expect the same from everyone else. It's not just about being owed, it's about owing, too. I wish I knew where it came from. I wish I was better about just letting it go.
It doesn't have to, and you can use ones that don't, they get the info across mostly. But it is jarring if it doesn't sound human, it's a speech impediment, or as a more generous take, an accent.

The correct inflections, pauses, annunciations, etc. are all important to humans, especially so for audio books and similar things that need to immerse.

Otherwise you have to strain to listen, similar to listening to someone with a heavy accent.
How do you imagine this working?

I live a few blocks away from a Walgreens that is now closing at the end of the month. I've personally witnessed a shoplifter actively shoplifting nearly every time I was in the store over the past year to year and a half. This was a half dozen encounters at least, of varying degrees of audacity from teenagers stealing some makeup to outright crews doing a mini flash mob style raid.

In every case staff (and security) were tailing them, and in one instance outright confronting them nearly to the point of physically blocking them. The shoplifters do not care - they know they cannot be touched by store employees, and they also know the police literally will not show up to the call. These are folks filling up entire baskets full of high value items for obvious resale while everyone simply lets them do it.

Perhaps this is an outlier, but based on talking to employees, seeing it with my own two eyes, it's fairly clear to me Walgreens Corporate is simply walking it back and taking an L in these locations vs. bothering to step into a hyper-partisan political topic.

This is a wild shift in societal norms and values from when I was working retail jobs in the mid to late 90's. We were enabled (and willing) to outright physically detain shoplifters to the point of physical restraint if they fought back. Police and prosecutors would have our backs strongly. This rapidly changed towards the end of the 90's into the early 00's.

Society starts failing when the answer to every problem is call mommy and daddy (the police) and stops enforcing basic societal norms by itself. We are witnessing the transition from a high trust society to a low trust society in many areas of this country.
Arnold was so perfect as the embodiment of the birth of a dangerous, unrefined new force, and Robert Patrick was the perfect turn for the next generation. While Arnold's terminator had unbelievable levels of the familiar properties of strength and durability, handling the bikers exactly the same way the bikers would have handled a 90 pound weakling, the next-gen terminator had a bizarre new capability that we had never encountered. Arnold was frightening because we could imagine exactly how he would pursue us and how our efforts to escape or defend would fail against him. With the Robert Patrick terminator, we were confronted with something much stranger, even alien. Our culture had not yet worked out the consequences of what he could do. In the few moments we had to react, our imaginations could only scratch the surface of what he was capable of. In broad daylight, we were in the dark.

It verges on cosmic horror, where you realize that your imagination, which is fully stocked with you culture's complete menagerie of horrors and abominations, may be utterly inadequate to imagine what is about to happen to you.

(The plot didn't quite deliver on that, since the new terminator was just faster and more unstoppable that the old one, but the fear was there.)
As usual when I see this sort of thing, I have questions around the security needs of the application. Storing all of this information on the client means that the client has to be trusted to not mess with all of this state. If it's important, it needs to be stored and checked server-side.

I still do this on occasion, with these rules -

1. You can only have one loan at a time.

2. The money has to be used to complete a goal. Moving across country is a goal, paying rent is not.

3. There is no repayment date, but you do have to write me an email stating what you are using the money for and that you agree to the rules.

Those are the simplest rules I could come up with that prevent abuse without being too onerous. They seem to work. About 1/3 of the loans I've given out have been repaid.

I tried to do that at first with https://textshader.com because the whole site is client-side and I didn't want to bother with a backend. It didn't really work because the state is unbounded in size, so instead I just chuck it on GitHub gists and then point to the gists. It means I don't have to store any data myself and there's zero recurring costs outside of the domain name... but if the site ever got popular I'd probably have to figure something else out.

I just don't loan money. If someone asks for a loan, I either give it to them outright, or I say no.

Money I can't afford to give away is money I probably shouldn't be loaning out.

Usually, people pay me back, and it's a nice treat.

Sometimes, people don't, and because I wasn't expecting the money back, and wasn't counting on it, it's fine.

From what little I understand the specialness of a Turing machine is that it can be used as a universal calculator, not that it can be used as a universal calculator fast.

This depends on how you want to understand fast. A Turing machine updates only a few bits per cycle while a modern computer easily updates many thousands if not millions of bits per cycle. Also a Turing machine access its memory very slowly because the head moves one cell per cycle, good luck reading a bit stored five gigabytes away from the current position of the head. So yes, in that sense a Turing machine is slow, especially random access memory is big advantage in practice, but in theoretic terms having to scan through the entire memory just gets swept under the rug of polynomial factors.

On the other hand you can build a Turing machine that emulates your modern computer even though it might need a trillion cycles to emulate just a single cycle of it. But mathematically you can just factor this out, you call a trillion cycles just one cycle and now both are the same speed, mathematically of course, not any physical implementation.

The other way that you allude to, using many Turing machines in parallel, is probably more realistic. You can probably build a small Turing machine with the equivalent of a few hundred or maybe few thousand gates. And you can program them to simulate a single logic gate in maybe ten or so cycles. Now rebuild you real computer with all gates replaced by those small Turing machines.

My gut feeling is that you could probably build a 80s or 90s era processor using current technology. A 1982 Intel 80286 has 134,000 transistors, that puts the number of gates well below 100,000 while a GeForce RTX 4090 has 16,384 shader cores which are way more powerful than our tiny Turing machine to simulate a single logic gate needs to be. So if you are willing to give up 30 years of Moore's law, you can probably have a Turing machine powered computer.

Heck [2], we have transistor level simulations of old processors [1], somebody with enough enthusiasm could probably do this at the gate level, then replacing gates with Turing machine simulations would be easy, and finally you would have to get them running on a GPU for decent speed, but I am not sure if GPUs would be any good for that kind of task, I have never programmed one. But this would be a processor running some code, simulated at the gate level with the gates implemented by Turing machines simulated on a real processor.

The idea that producing and consuming “stuff” is the end-all-be-all (more important than whether people have any money, for example) has already received too much emphasis in the last fifty years.

It’s like, as long as people are buying TVs, everything must be good. They must have money, then. Or credit cards. And the companies that make TVs make money, which makes the stock market go up, which helps people’s retirement accounts. Anyway, go buy more stuff, it’s good for the economy. That’s just capitalism and consumerism. Stuff being bought and sold benefits big corporations, and not people that much, increasingly so.

The current way we distribute money (and healthcare!) to most people is “jobs.” A human-centric view of prosperity would focus on whether people have what they need, and how to get money to people (which people do need, or else they need food, shelter, etc). If you assume arbitrary progressive changes in taxation and government, problem solved, I guess. Absent that, we need innovation in employing people, not innovation in making stuff.

I’m not saying automation is bad or “stop automating.” But as other commenters point out, the question is not just total wealth, but how that wealth is distributed. I hope everyone realizes that in 2023!

The Keurig that worked well for me was a institutional model from Staples with simpler controls. The model with manual water fill works fine also. When my partner was buying a countertop oven, I suggested the version that was $5 more expensive that had a temp knob rather than a digital display, because once the display fails, you have an expensive brick.

And Drew talks "harshly". Says things like "shitty usage of the GPG command line

https://github.com/golang/go/issues/30141#issuecomment-46427...

Both are abrasive, but in my mind, this is a cultural issue.

I grew up in a judgmental, holier-than-thou religion that I rejected at an early
age and then was ex-communicated from on my 18th birthday. I've lived this
pattern of judgement and ostracisation. It's dangerous, closed minded, and
wrong.

One of the reasons I work in software is because I'm a "strange" person. I say
things people don't understand, my value system is radically different from my
peers and "normies". I am a very different type of person. Software was a safe
place for weird people, including the productive, but sometimes abrasive. It's a
shame to make software not a place for a wide range of diverse people. In my
difference, I don't want my cultural differences to be targeted by witch hunts,
those looking for blood to prop up their own "moral superiority".

And I personally have no cultural issue with people who say things like, "shitty
usage of the GPG command line tool by applications." They're welcome in my
circles as I sincerely consider myself less judgmental than those calling for a
ban, but perhaps in kindness I can urge people who say stuff like that to, over
time, to be more kind and sensitive. Kindness is a skill that needs
development. Not everyone is in the same place. It's certainly something I'm
working on every day. And if not, that's okay too, not all of us are built with
the same social skills, and that's okay. To _not_ be self-righteous requires
long-suffering. Peter and Drew were worth more effort.
> The product tries to do too much.

Not necessarily. It could be the product was designed around many different facets - user stories, bug reports, marketing requests, safety standards. Then there's the stuff you don't necessarily control, like cost controls and deadlines.

At the end of it there's quality control, and that's where these things usually fall down. You can make a super duper fancy coffee maker that won't die after 3 months. But you need the QC to ensure quality at scale. 90% of the defects might be easy to solve, but the last 10% might be too costly/time-consuming. If only 1 in 1000 will have a defect, it might be simpler/cheaper to replace the defective ones than do the QC to prevent it.

You don't have to have a simple design for reliability. But the more complex it is, the more quality control is necessary to make it reliable.

> Only when it's clear that they can't or won't do you ban.

I'm saying that's still not a reasonable measure even in that case. Why not an exponential backoff, where the first measure is that they only get one post a day. If they want to be heard they have to be more careful in how they word things and they have more time to think about how it might be received. If they transgress again, then it's upped to every three days, then once a week, then once every other week, and so on. A total ban is the limit of this more nuanced process.

No doubt this feature doesn't exist, so I'm suggesting something like this should be added because I'm not at all a fan of bans. Even this is a stopgap measure used to manage assholes because we don't yet understand what's at the root of asshole behaviour.

Edit: to clarify, I mean the backoff/retry strategy is still not ideal, but an easy first attempt at trying to reframe this as a problem we can maybe address using programming abstractions to inhibit rather than facilitate communication. Most software is focused on reducing barriers to communication, which is why banning is the only recourse, but in cases like this you obviously want to raise barriers to communication in controlled ways so you don't have use the ban hammer.
Heh you might want to use an equivalent gaming GPU for the price comparison. Surely a thousand dollars spent on an RTX 4000 series card (Hopper) would outperform a P5000?

I agree though, Tortoise TTS did a lot of similar work IIRC by a single person on their multi-GPU setup. Really impressive effort. Did they get a citation? They deserve one.

edit: reading other comments it seems there is a misconception that the model takes 3 seconds to run? That isn't the case - it requires "just" 3 seconds of example audio to successfully clone a voice (for some definition of success).
