But I don't need chatgpt to teach me what I know. I need it to teach new things easier than by reading books or digging into the endless amount of pages from Google.

Those are things that I don't need to have a deep and accurate understanding. Usually, they are topics that I barely know how to start searching about them. So, for taking me from zero to enough so fast and intuitively, Chatgpt is really impressive to me.
Stuxnet is what nightmares are made of in terms of nation state level exploits, Mossad's blatant disregard for Human life, not just Iranian, is beyond words here.

These are the dire implications of long-standing disputes with it's nuclear program as well as sanctions, I'm no Iranian apologist mind you: I want the current regime to be overthrown for what they've done in suppressing Human rights and for their continued supply of kamikaze drones to Russia. BUt it also underscores that colluding with Russia, who is urrently selling it's oil/gas at a massive discount, cannot and will not ensure your country is taken care of and will only exacerbate a problem further and ensuring instability.

I'm sure the CIA/Pentagon would like to pat themselves on the back for this, but the truth is this sheer geo-poliical incompetence at play here.

I haven't read the book, but just hearing the idea to tape my mouth shut induces some anxiety. Isn't it dangerous that you don't get enough air?
None announced as yet. Definitely changes and "belt tightening", and other optimizations (most people had assumed that bonuses were automatic and 100%, but they will be more tightly focused on individual performance now).
Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has predicted rapid developments in the capability of artificial intelligence programs, such as high-profile tool ChatGPT, will dramatically change the way people source information online, and warned white-collar job losses will inevitably result from its use.

I see this as a good thing. The more people who figure out the ruse the better.

To put it another way, in Stalinist Russia people were starving while the government kept announcing record harvests, meeting yet another glorious 5 year plan etc.

It led to the saying, "If you want milk, take your pail to the radio."

An important consideration for me is that a 43" TV with a 4K HD screen is beautiful to look at, while Oculus screens are not. For 300 dollars I can get a beautiful portal into 3D worlds in the form of a monitor in front of my face and I don't have to wear anything or change anything about the way I see or hear. And also, I don't like the way things move in the VR I've seen. It lags and jumps bit and does not scroll smoothly as I look around.
Ask HN: Would AI for Pets Work?
I was skeptical on XR until I saw the health and care applications - typically short sessions 30-60 mins with high market value if solving a medical need. The long duration uses, like work or entertainment, seem unlikely any time soon, too many usability constraints.
but if you're actively working on a problem you're in it, and the comments probably make sense. coming in from outside via web search or shared link, yeah, it's probably hard to jump in without full context of the lead up to it. once the problem is fixed, do you really care that much after the fact and have moved on?
Antivirus consumes money, staff time, CPU resources, disk I/O, etc.

You can have false positives and false negatives, which can cause even more problems and train people to ignore whatever the antivirus says.

The antivirus can cause security problems as well, things like man in the middle proxies to scan HTTPS traffic, but they "forget" to check the certificates, which handily disables the entire point of HTTPS.

Basically it's makes security worse, and consumes resources that would be better used elsewhere, like say with a whitelist.
I don't know if I would call that scamming. The dealership charges a significantly higher hourly labor rate than independent service shops, but that hourly rate is clearly posted as required by law, and the part price is always OEM list price.
This is a fantastic post on the challenges associated with diving into large codebases (sometimes called "source diving" or "code archaeology"). The vast majority of code in the world is in large private codebases. The size of legacy private code dwarfs that of the open source world (sizable as that might be these days) and the rate at which you can read/understand code is the limiting factor here for dev velocity.

Some companies have invested in dedicated tools (like Code Search and Grok at Google) because they recognize the importance of the problem. Such systems were a primary source of inspiration for us when we started Sourcegraph—we wanted to bring the tech for large-scale code understanding to every company. In-depth posts like this are a big source of inspiration and ideas for us, so thanks to the author for writing this up.
Quic sounds like it has a lot of performance potential but hasn't hit critical mass yet
Great tool. I think this is why folks have trouble finding the docs:

Whole entire site is docs everywhere, including home page. Links to "docs" are tiny on the home page. Main menu calls them "library" instead of docs, why?

Majority of the stuff is focused on migration rather than new users. These two should be separated into separate tracks immediately. There is an attempt, but it gets lost somehow.

Also the release page linked here and "what's new in 2.0" go straight into the deep end, "inside baseball" style. These kind of pages should be very light. Tons of history-I'm personally not interested when trying to get something done. Unsolicited advice, move that into another blog post. ;-)
This sounds to me like an imagined meritocracy fantasy, which in practice would end up a dystopia rife with corruption, injustice, and arrogance.
I've moved to Tidal for the same reason; can't find any difference in the music library in my taste-niche
Can you elaborate? Writing SQL and having the library only take care of converting from/to classes (or structs or whatever) in your code is common in various communities. What's so weird about it?
I actually had an experience like this today. Being a beginner at Python Flask, I asked a question on Stack Overflow. I formatted my question just as everyone else does, included my code, and made sure to be clear in describing the problem. People downvoted me to -2 within the first hour and didn't answer. Someone commented with a link to a barely-related question and clearly didn't read my whole question. On Reddit, I think a beginner question would at least receive 1 or 2 upvotes, but Stack Overflow is just brutal. I understand downvoting unclear or badly worded questions with vague questions or no code, but mine was just fine, people just didn't want to answer because I was a beginner.
I haven't seen any product for that, it would be very interesting to see one.

I believe this is a rendering optimization leaking through to UX. It's a bit of a pattern in recent MS UI, especially their "productivity" web apps. Another example I saw a couple years ago: Ctrl-A in Outlook Web Access only selects the visible messages + a small number above and below the visible messages, because the selection logic only has access to the currently-rendered items. That's my guess, anyway. I've implemented controls with this so-called "virtualized rendering" technique and it was a nightmare to retrofit to existing controls.
The market tanked and it's an opportunity to cut back compensation packages that they feel are too generous.

For the last ~6 months the Fed has been beating it over corporate leaders' heads that inflation is a big deal and it's being caused by "high salaries", and begged them for hiring freezes and layoffs to fix it.

Investors have cited the first reason[1], as have some executives.

Interest rates/inflation/recession are economy and industry wide excuses to cutback on the positive gains the labor market has made over the last few years. People who own and run companies think workers are making too much money.

> I hate the experience of a new code base when everything is so alien

Personally I love that experience, of a fresh new codebase with some patterns and other things I haven't seen before, seeing what works well and what doesn't, what stinks and what shines.

Once the exploration have been done, and things start to be obvious on how to achieve, I lose a bit of motivation as I can solve the problems in my head and now the boring part of actually typing it out begins.

My favorite was asking it "how can I solve a rubik's cube blindfolded". That's something I've been learning on and off for some time, and there's enough tutorials on the internet on how to do it.

ChatGPT's answer (summarized)[1]: "Memorize the initial state, and track the complete state of the cube in your head as you solve a cube normally".

If you aren't a cuber, the answer sounds plausible enough (It does work for chess after all), but it's humanly impossible with a Rubik's Cube. The only way you can memorize a random state of the cube _and_ operate on it, is to keep your changes to a minimal so your memorized state gets incrementally solved - you solve a few pieces at a time.

> My personal belief is that the browser as we know it today will evolve to be more based around 3D,

I interacted with a lot of 3D content, games, apps when I was a child / teen but nowadays I largely prefer 2D for all my interactions with computers, be it games, softwares, etc. 3D just feels gimmicky and less productive than WIMP, especially on all the VR headsets I tried. I'm curious if other people feel different.
It's very interesting how different people's experiences are. I worked for a company that used both Slack and Teams, and Teams always caused issues, was unstable, and had many video problems. Slack worked much more reliably for us. Perhaps it's a platform issue? Nobody in our workplace used Windows, everyone was either Linux or OSX.
My blue-collar job is safe! (Hardly.)

AI is like that fast, sloppy and stupid colleague whose work always needs to be checked. When that person does some "work", it isn't the end of the job, it's merely the beginning. Their "work" is always suspect and may be full of errors. AI will create more work.

To jleyank's point, if AI can "pass" an exam, or get a "B", then a passing grade or a B average is no longer enough for students. They need to do better.

> un-reimbursed

This is silly. I've learned most the theory behind my current profession from the internet. If you took away my ability to learn from that "un-reimbursed work" then I'd be pretty useless too. Whatever one thinks about chatgpt, it's a dead end to worry about the fact that it's trained on information shared publicly
The Project, not Intel. It is Intel Project motivating the improvements which are making it possible for AWS, the box stores, the fast food joints, Google, and others to move in too.

Probably true. I don’t know much about exploiting algorithms like this, but doesn’t even knowing how the algorithms work give a somewhat substantial advantage in stuff like SEO?

There are virus "kits" that allow creating new binaries as often as needed. So for whatever lag time (typically days to weeks) the AV folks have, you just generate something newer. Things are plenty sophisticated to allow VMs, encrypted binaries, and obfuscation tricks ... shared by commercial software that you can't just blacklist all bad binaries in any kind of general way.

So there's an infinite supply of bad binaries and AV companies are by definition, behind. Basically selling snake oil that promises to help, but never will.
how much $$$ did the company make, before and after?
This right here. Most of the time you just need to rebuild your image. If the project is being actively developed and built, nothing to worry about. (Unless you pin to a very specific OS version of course).

If it's not, you just need to trigger a build every so often. Maybe this could be a feature PaaS offers in the future.

It's not difficulty level, more like just raw time. Most social interaction occurs while hanging on between classes, while having lunch, paying a visit to the library, et cetera. It doesn't work when you rush in to the class and then rush out back to job soon after. Just hanging around people and getting to know them takes time.

Ironically I spent a few years looking in all those places before ending up Catholic.

Everybody else "tolerated" the heck out of my gender-bewildered, 'spergie self from the messed up family, but it was the Catholics who finally showed me a love that would actually sacrifice something for my sake. Up until then, I sincerely believed "love" was like "Santa Claus" - a nice story you tell children, but nobody actually believes when they grow up.

Are there some Catholics who wouldn't know love if it came back from the dead? Absolutely. But there are others who stake their lives and well-being on the belief that love is at the center of everything, and wow are they worth meeting.
Why not prevent control transfer to the ROP gadget?
Not at all. In fact, she’s already asked us by the tender age of 6.

I think life is an amazing thing. A miracle. And it’s very special. For all the angst and fear that comes with life, there is so so much beauty. I wanted to share that with a person, a new person who would have the ability to see the world like I do (since we share genes, my hope is some of that comes along with it).
I think it’s impossible for many to be treated without drugs. I think it’s irresponsible to tell people with a disease that saps their energy and motivation that the solution is to pick themselves up, willpower their way through it and go be social and active etc. medicine itself is a very traditional means of helping people, probably as old as civilization.

No need for an “imbalance” as justification to get help through medication. This attitude is a form of ableism that can ultimately be deadly for the people it’s targeted at if they buy into it.

Coming from a spiritual and community oriented background people aren’t doing well. “medicine bad” and constant implicit and explicit messages they get - that they must not be doing it right, doesn’t help at all.
>>migration to their cloud mainframe offering was even more expensive for the raw compute

Mainframes were always cheaper. The only reason things like Hadoop and MR even picked up for heavy batch jobs, was because in the last decade lots of cheaper consumer hardware was available, due to companies having over invested in building data centers. The excess capacity was sent to hadoop work. If you have continuous ongoing investments in Mainframe tech or wish to start something new, you are better off using Mainframes.

Microsoft released a version of Defender for multiple platforms including: MacOS, Linux, Android and iOS. IIRC there's personal and enterprise editions both linked to 365 through "Microsoft 365 Defender".

Well, if you have the opportunity to choose, it's a bad choice to surrender your communications to a commercial globally centralized black box both professionally and privately. Moving to Zulip, RocketChat, Matrix/Jitsi, etc. instead of Slack, Discord or even Signal/Whatsapp should be the long-term goal for everyone.

Adobe has already started to feed its customers' data to its AI. Who says, other providers won't take advantage of broad contracts and terms in order to avoid informing their clients.
I am actually pondering on accepting an offer from Confluent. It's still an active offer... after this layoff would you say my new job is safer? Or would that just mean I'm probably next up to be laid off?
this isn’t quite true. i was playing around with sd, and whilst browsing styles on a site where different artists’ names were compared using the same prompt (“[artist name] painting of flowers”, for example), a particular artist’s style stood out to me. i ended up buying a print from them.

sd might not directly include this info in its outputs, but it really is free marketing for some (in fact, i suspect a lot of artists are probably flattered for being included by name in the dataset, but some are riding the waxing wave of outrage for the free media exposure)
Where did DD stop the merge. I just saw them simply state that the reviewer didn't want to review it as they work at Datadog. It could simply be that they are biased TO merge it even if it contains flaws. Having an independent reviewer ensures the code quality meets the bar.
I think the best way to promote it would be to write a 1000 word essay about how when you were a little kid, you just loved to hang out in the kitchen and read recipes with Grandma, and a long description of your family's Christmas traditions, a few reviews of your favorite albums, and some amateur poetry.

Put all this content at the top of the page. Intersperse several ads for kitchen products, electric shavers, and grey market Cialis.

After all this, throw a sentence at the bottom describing your product and add a link. You're sure to get thousands of hits!

Just kidding obviously. This is a fantastic idea.

Was HLT used much in regular programming, like to say "I've got nothing to do unless an interrupt comes in, might as well just HLT", perhaps?

If a rich, interconnected 3D world at the scale of the WWW added significant value, then interest and uptake of Croquet would have taken off 10+ years ago. Croquet is technology-wise as close to the science fiction ideal of the Metaverse as anything that has existed:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Cobalt
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Croquet_OS

With Croquet, you could literally jump from, say, your favorite 3D game into a virtual business meeting, controlling your same avatar, and without either 3D space being hosted by the same entity--directly or indirectly. It's the embodiment of some of the most fanciful visions of a Metaverse, and it has existed for quite some time.

But Croquet hasn't taken off, despite intensive efforts, which tells me that not only will our 2D interfaces continue to stick around, the 2D digital world is likely to remain overwhelmingly predominate for quite some time still. At least outside isolated islands.

And in any event, I don't see how that could change unless and until a fundamentally open, interconnected, and extensible platform like Croquet sees adoption. A world of closed gardens could never be as immersive and expansive. As large as Facebook has become (and as AOL before it), it simply doesn't and couldn't have the same underlying impact as the WWW collectively.

[1] NB: the Wikipedia article for Croquet_project now forwards to Croquet_OS, a commercial project. I hope Croquet OS finds success. I can understand the thinking that on the modern internet new technologies necessarily require commercial backing. But ultimately I think that's a reflection of some fundamental dilemmas on the modern internet regarding the uptake of new technologies; a dilemma that likely has no real solution unless or until something else comes out of left field to toss the ecosystem into disarray. That something is unlikely to be the Metaverse because otherwise Croquet or something substantially similar would have already taken off long ago.
