It makes me kinda sad that if this were to happen in my country (Peru), the police wouldn't do anything under the pretext that the suspect hasn't actually done anything.

These kinds of loons are far too common. I've wiped out most of my online presence that links to my real identity because of this. I'm not worried about big tech and advertisers getting my data, they just want to make money. I'm worried about insane individuals like this. You have to be proactive and avoid posting this stuff in public to begin with as it's much harder or impossible to retract what you have already posted.

Never post your real life info / name / photos in public or semi public spaces. Use unique usernames for each site, avoid ever posting things which can link between them. In general it's best to just not post much on public sites at all and keep it to private group chats which are far safer.

I think it's important to remember what mental illness is, at it's core- an important organ that isn't working correctly.

The brain is the thing that tells you what is and isn't right. It provides motivation, impulses, everything. And it can break in any number of ways- depression is merely one of them.

This person is ill. That doesn't excuse them, but it does help explain them.

You'll basically get one 30-minute session per day that way, before the site kicks you out.

A non-story in the sense that a bunch of entitled people caring way too much about what is a trivial decision of someone else that has no effect on others whatsoever. This isn't about wearing a wetsuit for a competition.

It's as if I made a big deal if you decided to wear a short sleeve shirt versus a long sleeve shirt during your workout....even though your choice of attire has no impact on my workout whatsoever.
Yes, yes they will. They appear to demonstrate authority. They do not merely open the door to a range of information which can face recognizable human scrutiny, traction for critical thought. ChatGPT minimizes the “attack surface” for human evaluation. This is not something we should optimize. It is unknown and potentially dangerous.

Dissenting information is vital to the health of a society. Humans were not meant to drink from a single fountain of “truth,” their herd tendencies and response to social proof vastly outweigh rigor in decisions.

You have similar but yet different problems on other distros, too.

For example if you want to use a very old node version then you either find a prerecompilation for your distro or also compile it yourself. The precompilation might be linked against an older glibc version or compiling does not work with your distros because your icu version is incompatible and then you are in the same rabbit hole.

volta "just works" because it was specifically designed to achieve one defined purpose run on a few platforms and is well tested on those. nix is general and cannot achieve everything. Somewhere maintainers need to cut a line otherwise things get completely out of hand.

Network is restricted in the sandbox because otherwise reproducibility would be severely reduced and we could not guarantee that the outputs match what we expect them to be. Also downloaded binaries would usually need patching anyway.

Also you are not supposed to take everything from nixpkgs. Like on any other distro if you are developing something the ecosystems own tools are the most well equipped and have all the versions. The versions in nixpkgs are the versions we need for other packages and NixOS, not every possible version you could need to develop a project with specific requirements necessarily.

PS: volta did not just work on my NixOS machine because it assumes that relative to glibc there will be a lib directory where it can place things.
So you confront someone you think is a criminal with a group of men and get into a brawl. How much time are you willing to spend in jail?

Even if the gent is a stalker and you are right - you still instigated a brawl! You still assaulted (or more) someone.

If your thought process is "ah but he won't have a gun! My lads and me will really have an easy time now!" that may be a sign you are doing something unwise.

And what if he does have a knife or improvised weapon? Are you looking forward to explaining to your buds wife why he's room temp in the morgue over a stalker?
hardcore or just keyboard ones? I would estimate only a small % go beyond that.
So I generated a few songs using the same template, and while the songs sound OKish - each next one generated from the same template sounded VERY similiar - some sonics and sequences were the same, but they sound like nearly the same songs. So, while it looks like it is making unique music per each generation - the uniqueness of the music is likely made to escape being fingerprinted as the same song. A person, listening to all of the songs that I made, would likely say - "Didn't I just hear that song?" After hearing the first one. It's not like it's the same genre, it's a pitch shift here a filter cut off there, a sequence randomize there - and poof - new song.
GaN is great, but still pretty expensive.
And if the answer is "yes" you can always find someone in the comments who wrote a PhD dissertation on the topic that tells you the answer probably isn't "yes".
Not many knobs to turn. You pick genre, subgenre, key, major/minor, and bpm. No inputs for timbres or moods or really anything else. You make something, and if you don't like it you remake it.

Super excited for these kinds of tools, but so far this doesn't look like a good creative tool, just a replacement for generic background music.

I like the idea of iterating on algorithms within small social media niches / segments, like subreddits. The key is that it can be opt-in this way.

I believe without it you can't push to a PR? As a maintainer, I find it quite useful: if a PR is essentially fine but needs a minor/trivial edit (typo, maybe add a few lines of documentation, extremely minor code style changes) then I typically just make then myself as I don't want to bother the submitter for that. Faster and easier for me, faster and easier for them.

Either way, of course all of this is possible without the "gh" tool – no one claimed it's not, – but it's a lot easier than "stick these commands in your git config", especially for people not well versed in git.
Do you have sources about false positive ratios of stalking, vandalism, etc? My understanding is that sexually-oriented crimes actually have a very low rate of false accusations, but I didn't look into it deeply and I only heard of it like 5+ years ago so maybe something's changed? Let me know if you have updated data.
Ask HN: How is the tech market in SF? How does it compare to remote?
Obviously there’s been many, many layoffs at the FAANG / Big N tech companies.

While the biggest names may be downsizing or reshaping or whatever euphemism you prefer, there are many more tech companies in the Bay, who may have different situations.

As someone who used to live in the Bay, and is considering returning (had to move for family health reasons) I’d love to understand where we’re currently at.

So some specific questions then:

How many tech jobs are still exclusive to the bay, vs being targeted towards folks who are remote across the country / world?

Does this differ based on roles like software engineering vs more people oriented roles like Product / UX / Sales / Marketing?

How many people are going back to the office? How many are still in the bay, but just working from home? Of that latter, how many would be free to leave and work from any other state as they please?

Most of my friends left the bay, for a wide variety or reasons. I haven’t heard of anyone moving back. But on the other hand, I cant imagine the bay ever not being the epicenter of tech, growth, and innovation? Where do we actually stand?
thanks. one more question -

from a cost perspective, again I'm not super experienced in rails but enough to debug production issues and ensure stuff works -

I recall that for this one rails application, there were like 30 instances of it running on some beefy configurations and it was getting hammered quite a bit. We saw it was only able to manage like 300 req/second. A lot of time was spent rendering the template, like a few ms.

I ported that thing to Go and it takes microseconds to render a template. A single Go application running on cheap, shared configuration can handle like 10x the traffic.

Maybe. Or maybe part of the sentence was mandatory mental health treatment. Maybe this is the rock bottom that leads to this person getting the help they need and getting their life together.

He's also now known to the police for this sort of behaviour. If anyone reports anything even minor about him, he's lost any benefit of the doubt.
Were they high-endurance SD cards? In my experience, people usually aren't aware there is a difference between standard and high-endurance SD cards. The former should last years on a light I/O raspberry pi workload.
Google supposedly hires more of the ML experts and custom hardware experts. Whenever someone says that GCP is inferior to the competition, it's usually followed by "except in ML."

Trying to confront chase the perp was indeed a dumb idea. Though if you read the article they appear to have made multiple reports in the past. Thing is with police reports like this is by the time they arrive they only "see" vandalism which is all they can put in their report. Anything else you tell them is taken with a grain of salt, they arent psychics. In order for them to become actively involved they need to see the crime in progress or be presented with solid evidence. In the latter case you need to hire a private detective or DiY which is what they chose to do here.
I’ve implemented a personal policy to make it easier for myself and reduce bias:

Full waiter experience (seated, handed menu, food brought to table, plate cleared) gets 20%.

If the level of service is less than that, the percentage starts to go down proportionally.

Counter service is flat-rate $1 per person served.

This is the same every time regardless of quality of service (unless something truly malicious happens, but I’ve never experienced that.)
A machine that can spew out shit music that we are already drenched in. Great.

In a less cynical tone, I hope tools like this have the social effect of turning people away from the same old formulaic derivative genre productions and towards music created from the soul with meaning and emotions.

Google Pay, Amazon Pay, and other attempts by big companies to shoehorn their way into this market have to contend with the fact that PayPayl came first, and is "good enough" for the vast majority of people.

The real innovation in this space seems to have come from companies replacing more layers in your typical e-commerce stack, like Shopify.

For me, Apple Pay is the only "new" payment processor that actually competes with PayPal because Apple made the user experience a lot faster and more convenient.
This is the thing that people seems to miss. It's very accessible to the average Internet user. Kinda like TikTok and Instagram, most teens have tried it out. Sure, the other FAANGs might have far capable AI teams most of that output run in the background. Few are available to the general public that went on to became viral on social media.
And be replaced by wich well established international B2C payment processor ?
They started this in Australia just before the pandemic, but I haven't seen it since we reopened.

I suspect enough people, when prompted with these uncomfortable requests, paid it reluctantly then just never came back. At least, I know I've never been back to any business that asked for or expected a tip.

I'm sure this showed up on the metrics as an immediate spike in revenue, followed by a large downturn some months later.

Honestly can't think of a quicker way to ruin your business.

> What format is the frame buffer in?

It's a pointer to a screen-sized number of u32s. I'd hazard a guess that it's either RGBA or ABGR, and if you render one and everything looks wrong, it's the other. (Where the A channel is unused, as it's a framebuffer.)

Certainly not fool-proof and vulnerable to endian swaps if you somehow ended up on a big endian device. But this is also a port-doom-to-my-toaster level thing?
Wouldn’t be too hard to check out the existing implementations already using doomgeneric and write them for your own requirements!!

Sure, it's under heavy debate. While the idea or the planet spinning at different speeds weird to think about, the physics do work out. After all not like the atmosphere spins at exactly the same speed as the planet. Why should the core of the planet in a pool of magma spin at exactly the same rate?

The discussed difference is only 0.1 degrees per year, on the surface of the planet that's only 7 miles. So what's under the surface today might be 7 miles different in a year. The movement that deep is quite a bit less than 7 miles since the circumference at that depth is much less. Additionally it's not rock and dirt at that depth, but a liquid magma with an average speed of a foot a day is not too surprising.

Humans think of these things as constant, but the length of the day and the distance of the moon are changing because tides are transferring rotational energy of the earth into the moon. Said forces aren't directly impacting the spin of the core, so it might well be catching up and oscillating around the speed of the earth's rotation every 35 days.

This is my one pain point with JS actually. I've tried getting comfortable for literally years. Sometimes when i look at how stuff is done in JS, it's so incredibly alien to me. I just can't wrap my head around what is happening.

I was hoping it would go away with time. Unfortunately it doesn't. Maybe it's the "flexibility" of the language or something.
They say it's not ready for prime time, probably because it's way too easy to make it say wrong or offensive things that would damage their reputation, and because they haven't figured out how to monetize it. I also think they got comfy with their money printer and were slow to respond to the competition, just like YouTube was with TikTok.
> In “Chain of Thought Prompting Elicits Reasoning in Large Language Models,” we explore a prompting method for improving the reasoning abilities of language models. Called chain of thought prompting, this method enables models to decompose multi-step problems into intermediate steps. With chain of thought prompting, language models of sufficient scale (~100B parameters) can solve complex reasoning problems that are not solvable with standard prompting methods.

The de-factor Ruby/Rails way to application development is DRY. DRY everything if possible, performance is not 1st priority.

TL;DR is: Vendor lock in vs performance lock in. It's hard to not have both at once.

I sincerely hope not. I got past the safeguards early on and requested it to give me instructions on how to make plastic explosives, to do this I had to use a very complex and specific prompt. When I had the lab procedure generated, I sent it over to a friend who has a PhD in Chemical Engineering and he laughed at the instructions and said you'd likely kill yourself or cause other permeant harm to your lab and body if you attempted the instructions. He had a similar response when I asked it to give me steps for synthesizing other illicit but less dangerous organic compounds.
This is mostly good news, but would best be coupled with a promise to add security key support to iCloud for Windows. Over the long term, iCloud users shouldn't have to choose between good security, on the one hand, and keeping the cross-platform support they may already rely on and which may even justify their choice to buy a paid iCloud subscription, on the other.
I have trouble believing that you were always able to get to the bottom of it and determine it to be one of these causes, not only because it entails a remarkable ability to connect with many otherwise unresponsive posters, and the because it’s so easy for a person to read a challenging story and just assume that missing pieces would make it fit a prior conviction, but because it’d be pretty remarkable if I’m really the end of your ten-year streak. Hi. PayPal stole from me and I fit none of those points. I had a personal account, a friend made a habit of repaying me via PayPal despite my already knowing better, PayPal allowed it for a while then switched to accepting transfers to my account but barring withdrawals or return transfers, in effect taking out a non-consensual unannounced month-long loan from me. You can tell me how PayPal may have become confused and incorrectly believed I’m taking pre-orders, breaking their TOS, money laundering, etc, but those beliefs are factually incorrect, my usage was not inappropriate, and it’s very different to say “PayPal only does it when X” and “PayPal only does it when they believe X, which they frequently do mistakenly”.
Who said otherwise?

The problem with this is trusting that the situation won't escalate enough in between the time the police are contacted and they maybe collect enough evidence to come up with charges, and that when charged the suspect would actually be held pre-trial, actually found guilty, and actually sentenced to time in jail.

The path from "call police" to "bad guy caught" to "bad guy in jail" is non-linear.
It makes a lot of my transactions very low friction and significantly increases my willingness to buy things from small independent sellers on the web.
