afaik you could just set the precision of x87 to 32/64/80 bits and there would not be any extra cost to the operations
You can use doubles to store and calculate exact integer values. You just wont get 2^64 integers, instead you get the range +/-2^53 .

I like the special page suggestion. Humanizing the software is a great way to get people to pay for it if they have the means. And if they don't, then you're doing some good in the world (hopefully) by giving it away. Maybe at some point in the future they'll pay it forward or back.
Yes, exactly! This is IMHO the best answer. You'd also be amazed at how many people pirated photoshop while they were youths and/or students, and later paid for a legit copy when they had a real business need because it was what they knew and loved.

It's very bad economics to think of a pirated copy as a lost sale. In some cases the piracy helps drive sales!

I agree there's a lot to like about the car.

But the people who are really and truly committed to owning a Tesla because of the range and charging network don't have to go bragging to all their friends about how they bought a Tesla.

If they bought the car for it's range and charge network. It's all still there pretty much same as it was, the equation hasn't changed. Nothing for these people to feel cringe about.

On a side note: the people who paid $10k up front for FSD option probably feel a lot of well deserved cringe right now. My buddy bragged over 5 years ago about the package, I bet him it wouldn't be working in 5 years, I won the bet and he feels lousy about the purchase now. A sucker is born every minute.

Node is about 60mb on it's own.

Taking a peak at the official dockerfile for alpine node (https://github.com/nodejs/docker-node/blob/28ad5e0e5d0e80df4...), they're also pulling in the following packages

&& apk add --no-cache --virtual .build-deps-full \
binutils-gold \
g++ \
gcc \
gnupg \
libgcc \
linux-headers \
make \
python3

My guess is the most weight is probably coming from linux-headers (~10mb), python3 (~50mb), and nodejs (~60mb). Plus 1 to 10 mb for each of the other pacakges, and you end up right there around 175mb.
Not seeing a lot of rational discourse here in the thread. The price of Strava has been in continual monotonic decline in real dollar terms. A 35% price increase across the board, if that is the weighted average, would just bring them up to 2009-2023 chained inflation.

If you do the same math for a company with thousands, or tens of thousands, of developers, the answer looks different.

Large companies already have dedicated teams for stuff that is a lot less critical than the container runtime.

The companies that are too big to avoid paying, but too small to build a replacement, are the ones that are in a jam -- for now. But in a year or two, Podman or Rancher might might fully meet their needs. What should they do then? Continue to pay for Docker, or use a free and open source alternative that has feature parity?

"Truth" is the most problematic concepts in philosophy. The introduction of the concept of the "Truth" undermines truthfulness. (e.g. you can call something "Truth Social")

This book

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G%C3%B6del,_Escher,_Bach

has a set of parables about people trying to paint on a facility to a system very similar to a "truth detector" for GPT-3. The gist of it is that "awareness of truth" makes it possible to make statements like "Am I lying now?"

People under GPT-3's spell think that giving correct answers is a minor detail that will be handled in a point revision of it but actually it is a much harder problem than everything they've done so far.
I’m not a Strava subscriber (I prefer TrainingPeaks for that) but wow, this is a poor way to communicate price increases. Most people can deal with prices increasing. What they can’t deal with is a total lack of communication about that increase.

If Strava don’t know what they’re going to charge then they shouldn’t communicate until they can put that number in front of customers. The alternative is… this!

@dang I think it'd be good to re-examine the posting thresholds for various HN activities, every day there are many freshly minted accounts marketing junk apps or weight loss candy.

My impression is that nearly nobody begins playing with a group of people composed solely of people who haven't played before. New players are almost always introduced by an experienced player, who does have strong opinions about what companies to support.

I disagree that the fix is to catch and ignore the error. The fetch handling logic should be catching the errors and reporting them somewhere (ex. Sentry or the UI). In a production app where you report and log errors this "issue" doesn't manifest.

Your comment is not substantive, but this situation is much more akin to putting a purchase on a credit card, and then deciding to stop making your payments when the accrued interest gets too high.

The analogy is flawed, of course, because sovereign states don't operate like private consumers, and to pretend they do only serves to fuel pithy content-less (usually partisan) hot-takes that don't serve to illuminate.

you're conflating management of external dependencies with internal dependencies. Ideally, Stripe is actually as a Library Vendor here and so these are long-lived major versions with well-defined upgrade paths and surface area. Within your company you don't want every team to have to operate as a Library Vendor, and you also want to take advantage of the command economy you operate in to drive changes across the company rapidly.

Also, Amazon went through this whole thing. They have tons of tooling built up around managing different versions of external and internal dependencies and rolling them out in a distributed fashion. They are doing polyrepo at a scale that is unmatched by anyone else. And you know what they've settled on? Teams getting out of sync with the latest versions of dependencies is a Really Bad Thing, and you get barked at by a ton of systems if your software is stale on the order of days/weeks.

There are a good number of plausible standards whereby calling out an individual for publicly defending a genocide is ok, even though, e.g., I feel like I have to buy things that are made in China despite my efforts to avoid doing so, and despite the fact that my efforts could be stronger.

There was no appreciable devaluation from the move. The new reprints honoring old cards that they promised not to reprint were not actual Magic cards, they have an alternate card back that makes them not Magic cards, not tournament legal, and a completely different class of cardboard for collectors. (Heck, plenty of players and some collectors actively want Magic to go back on that promise—called the "Reserved List"—because it prices otherwise-potential players out of playing certain forms of the game.)

As an example, let's examine, one of the cards they printed an homage to is Volcanic Island--the most-available, lowest-cost real English Magic printing (Revised). Its average price on Oct 1, a few days before the 30th anniversary announcement, was (according to mtgstocks.com) $799. Its average price today is $779 (the $20 difference is within normal seasonal variation). A more-collectible printing, Unlimited, had an average price on Oct 1 of $1342.50. That's its exact average price today. The much-more-collectible Beta printing was $12,500 on Oct 1, and $14,999 today.

No, the uproar from the community had much more to do with the way they marketed and sold the product in which these homage prints existed, the way their messaging about its sales performance seemed sketchy, and most importantly the price of the product.

Flyover also helped me connect with groups that I would see riding in other directions. Since flyover was made opt-in, I haven't gotten any use out of it.

Opt-in is probably a really good idea, even though it killed the feature. I really liked that feature. But yea, it was too easy to abuse.

Once again, for someone who has said multiple times that they don't care to engage and are above all these "weak attempts at baiting", you sure are putting a lot of time continuing to engage.

It's very hard to pretend to not care when you write multiple impassioned paragraphs about what you consider interesting discourse and what is beneath you. Your continued insistence of this "I'm better than you and this argument" does nothing but show that you do, indeed continue to care.

So maybe put all of this time that is so beneath you to read the article, and then you can proceed to insult it rather than just insulting the lowly people beneath you and our petty arguments.
I don't understand the claim that editorial influence will fix things when the above claim is Google can't distinguish between legit content and SEO garbage. Does google not have smart people working for them who can use editorial influence?

As to point 2 , the argument is that, like with google search results the dataset will be corrupted and get worse, not that it won't contain some human written prose, so that's irrelevant when you say humans will still write things.

Claim 3 seems to be an argument that we can solve the problem of machine learning being based on bad bots by throwing more bots at it, which seems to be a very Rube Goldberg proposal which I'm not sure will work.

Finally is the claim many humans are dumb, so the more chat bots that impersonate humans, the better I guess?
I thought Matt Levine's take in Wednesday's Money Stuff was insightful:

> If you go around talking up the value of the FTX’s business and its tokens, you might be able to talk someone into paying a lot of money for them; maybe not now but perhaps in November. If you go around talking down the value of FTX — if you make statements about how poorly it was run and how much fraud it did — then that value will tend to zero, and you won’t be able to sell it.

> At some level Bankman-Fried is surely right that if he had remained CEO of FTX, instead of stepping down and being replaced by Ray, he would have had a better chance — though still quite slim — of selling FTX’s business and tokens for more money, and thus raising more money for FTX’s customers. If you want to sell that business, you have to say that it’s good.

> It’s just that, you know, if FTX was a fraud, he would have been getting that money for customers by doing more fraud? Like if Ray is right that FTX was a fraudulent mess, then he shouldn’t be trying to sell it to investors for a lot of money, since that would itself be fraud.
The reprint policy specifically excludes reprints that aren't tournament legal[1] and I'm pretty sure it always has.

> possibly because the early Motorola 68000 processor chips didn't have 32 bit unsigned multiply operations.

This doesn't really make sense as an explanation. For both signed and unsigned multiply, the 68000 has a 16x16 -> 32 multiply. This is indeed kind of inconvenient if you need to multiply 32-bit numbers, but 31-bit numbers are not any easier. If anything, the unsigned cases is easier to reason about than the signed one
At a certain shoe online retailer I worked at, we had a hard limit on the maximum discount, and it was built into the code. Not configurable, and not overridable. There were a lot of problems with that codebase, and some of those problems probably led to that particular solution, but I liked it.
Docker uses container functionality specific to the Linux kernel. So on Linux, you can install a relatively lightweight engine. But on MacOS or Windows, you need to install the entire "Docker Desktop" app, which secretly spins up a Linux VM in the background, and presents a (pretty poor) abstraction as if this is all running on the host machine.
If you look at

https://beta.openai.com/playground/p/default-chat?model=text-davinci-003

https://beta.openai.com/playground/p/default-marv-sarcastic-chat?model=text-davinci-003

you can see a chat "session".

The issue is that to maintain the state, you need to maintain the history of the conversation.

For example, the friend chat starts out at 28 request tokens. I submit it, get a response back, and it's at 45 tokens. I add in a bit of my own commentary... and it's 59 tokens. I hit submit and its 80 tokens.... and so on.

https://imgur.com/a/wJ7LNAf

That session wasn't particularly insightful, but you get the idea.

The issue is that I did three requests with 28 + 59 + 88 tokens. As I keep going, this can add up. To maintain that context, my previous history (and the chat response) remains in the prompt for the next message growing arithmetically.

---

(edit)

Working from the chat instead of friend chat... a bit more interesting conversation.

https://imgur.com/Dog2jOT

Note however, that at this point the next request will be at least 267 tokens. We're still talking fractions of a penny ($0.002 / 1k tokens) - but we are talking money that I can look at rather than even smaller fractions. And as noted - it grows each time you continue with the conversation.

Don't forget about lying about his employees dying at a mass shooting.

But politicians are pretty well known for dishonesty in general. Many if not most of the top politicians have had lying scandals in their past. Most have been smart enough not to lie about easily verifiable things like university attendance or work history.
I think, possibly, yes.

However, if that were true, then it would also apply equally to other humans. The way our brains are wired might overestimate other people based on how they communicate?

Well, on average, we probably do. Almost certainly.

ChatGPT doesn't "know" anything except how to string words together in a way that matches what it's learned. And it does it very, very well. It's so good that even though I know this, I find it sometimes mesmerizing and amazing and hard to not believe it actually understands the subject. Spend enough time with it and it will fail spectacularly, but it depends on the kind of task. Stringing words together well is what it's good at.

Now, the chilling thing is this - how many asshats have you run into that are exactly a walking organic ChatGPT? They actually know nothing, have no ability to do math or apply logic, but they string words about a subject they have "learned" together in such a convincing way that they are practically hypnotists. They don't know anything about the subject, what they've learned is sequences of words and phases about a subject. I've run into a lot of these. And even knowing they exist, it's hard to spot one when they are good at it.

So yes, I think this exploits a trick in our brains that makes us want to believe what sounds good, and to ascribe meaning to it. And it makes us want to judge far too optimistically the intelligence of the thing based on how well it does this. It's like optical illusions - even though you know it isn't real, you still actually see it.

The human people that exploit this trick either are unaware of the difference or purposefully pretend to be. They are the bane of smart, honest, hard-working people. They are frequently dishonest, narcissistic, bullies, and are high-level asshats.

ChatGPT is only fun because it's in a glass cage. If it were your manager or co-worker and refused to acknowledge that it was a ChatGPT, it would not be nearly as fun.
