It's not an either or.

If you saw the clips of Bing with ChatGPT, the chat and traditional search results are next to each other. It's not a replacement, it's an addition
Show HN: Codeforces Submissions Analyzer
Codeforces provides public API to access all the submissions of a user and I created a tool that pulls this data and provides analysis. Users can interactively slice the data and analyze their performance.
What Bari Weiss may or may not be is rather irrelative here. The core facts ("He had a consensual relationship with a woman in the same institute, but had her own lab and he had no supervisory power over her. 2 years later she retroactively decided the relationship was abusive") are not disputed. Or if they are, you're not addressing that in your comments.

That is really what it's about, not Bari Weiss.
The immutable nature of it might hinder adoption. I'm sure after enough time and resources are invested into immutable desktop bases it'll be fine, I'm just skeptical that it's ready at the moment.
This is a tragedy, and it's great that people are trying to help in any way they can. However, building stuff on Twitter's platform seems like utter folly these days.
Does everyone know that Bing is the place to go for those types of images or videos? Honestly this is getting to the point where my most used search engines are DDG and Bing. What a thing to say.

Exactly! In the US we routinely have "blessed" media organizations openly discussing the need to legislate/limit threats to their ability to "control the message"...but Erdogan cuts to the chase and everyone flips out.

I mean...the day Musk took over Twitter, lots of comments here were calling for twitter.com to be kicked off the internet...
Think of floating point as a "floating" "point" like the dot that separates the two parts of a number like 3.1415. It floats around because this allows you to have more precision when the number is small without giving up the ability to represent large number. Fixed point number encodings also exist and are much simpler, e.g. use 24 bits for the left hand side and use 8 bits for the decimal part.

Anyway, thought I'd give you some background. This stuff is easy to look up too. You're probably getting downvoted because HN doesn't really like unsubstantive comments.
In this case, the vendor probably needs to be replaced. That's the easy fix. The higher TTL will help as it won't be querying them, but then making changes will be a pain in the future, until unless you pre-plan.

These are some things I am have though about for managing DNS. Any other recommendations would be great.

1) Separate Registrar from the source of the DNS records

2) Multiple NS records on the registrar

3) Multiple vendors for DNS records with Terraform sync
between the two vendors

4) Limit A records or point A Records to CNAMES

5) Low TTL times for NS records, risky if you are hacked though or make a bad change
And what optimization did you tell the C compiler to use?
The good news, if you can call it that, is that both critters were presumably found dead just before Groundhog's Day, having died quietly at some time earlier in their hibernation.
The f in %f doesn't mean "floating-point"; it means "fixed digits": printing the value in the style -dddd.dddd. If you don't specify how many digits after the decimal point, it defaults to six.

If 56.999999999999 is rounded to 6 digits after the decimal point, you get 57.000000.
Not to defend China, as the scale and the penalties are not comparable, however, some western governments also took a relatively hard stance against some anti-lockdown protests and we're learning government was involved in muting dissenting opinions on social media which in some western countries crosses the line into censorship.

The government had embeds in social media orgs. Just imagine if during the Johnson or Nixon admins the gov/FBI/etc had actual "embeds" in the WashPo/NYT, etc. It's one thing for say Bezos to sympathize with Biden, or Elon sympathize with Rand, but it's another for the gov to had employees embedded and offering their take on things in the guise of "protecting the public from misinformation"
The problem with the interpersonal blackpill is that when people find out about it, they feel used, like a means to an end. I guess it's ethical to announce it to people before interacting with them, but that's so outside social norms, that I don't see it happening. Moreover, it necessitates the question, is it easier than being kind, caring and warm to people and form genuine and meaningful connections?
Would love to get your feedback!

I think that is exactly what they are saying.
I think the answer is simply that if you run the numbers, it's just not economical to use nuclear plants for district heating. It's probably great if you can use district heating for cooling, but generally nuclear plants are very expensive so you want to get as much high-valued electricity out of them as possible.
This makes me wonder why Decimals aren’t part of std libs in Javascript or Golang.
yeah watching the keynote was certainly inspiring. Not only have they thought out the GPT integration, they also have the policing in order. And this was NOT a search company.

It was also thought provoking about how the future of predictive policing will work, because language models are very good at understanding our intentions , perhaps better than we think
They've sold a billion dollars worth of HomePod minis. Even at Apple scale, that's not bad.

They've just launched a new HomePod that replaces the original. It's weird that there was such a big gap between the first one and the new one.
You don't want people talking about who is responsible for bad construction and incompetent services right after a big disaster, do you? People might lose trust in the government
I came here to say this. This entire article should have been 5 lines, had they known about Knowledge Distillation.

Anecdotally, a similar thing happened to me when I "independently invented" synthetic data generation for deep learning back in 2016... Turns out my brilliant idea was not that original after all

Future of creativity and artistry isn't just being expert in one thing anyway, already seeing in a lot of fields where top level creatives are managing to excel in several fields.

These sort of tools are only going to accelerate this trend in my eyes.
It's possible for games to have over 100 achievements, which could lead to it rounding to 0% even when they have an achievement, or to 100% when they still have one missing.

People won't like this, so perhaps Steam put in some logic to adjust the numbers, and it is also affecting your case.

EDIT: But I would have gone for ceiling(99*achievements/total), which does give 57% in this case.
With this kind of reasoning there would be no way to disrupt a first actor in a new field.
Pity the buffer zones surrounding the fields.
New French law will blanket parking lots with solar panels
Offer it cheap and the market will clear.
There’s something brilliant about having a big pot of soup stock simmering down in the dead of winter. Not only are you heating the house, you’re also humidifying it with the steam from the pot.

The tricky one is canning. Harvest dates sometimes line up with heat waves and that’s either a sit outside with the windows open situation, or a suffer for your winter survival situation.
> This is conjecture.

So? Is it unreasonable? Do you really think you'd see a rousing fight from the left to defend books that discouraged or condemned gender transitions? Or would you see outrage and calls that "something must be done!" to protect kids from those ideas? Even the ACLU is backing off from defending people and ideas that offend their liberal supporters.

And the rest isn't conjecture.
> C++ is about don't pay for what you don't use, and if you don't need the bounds check you shouldn't have to pay for it.

There's a good compromise here though: do the bounds checks by default in operator[], and provide a separate get_i_know_what_im_doing() method that omits the bounds checks, which the programmer can call as an optimization. The fast/unsafe thing needs to be available, but it doesn't need to be the most convenient syntax.

I'm sure there are backwards compatibility problems with making a behavior change like that now, but I'm guessing e.g. CppFront is making that choice from the start? (Edit: sounds like it, if this is up to date: https://github.com/hsutter/cppfront/issues/110#issuecomment-... )
I think the confusion is "free as in beer". I guess the idea behind it is that your friends going out drinking will pay for your beer so you get the beer gratis. To anyone hearing the word "free as in beer", their first thought is that "beer is not free, I have to pay for it".

Whereas the statement "free as in speech" is descriptive, the term "free as in beer" requires you to interpret the price of beer in the exact opposite way it's usually understood.

I seem to remember a story about visiting hackers going out for drinks and the expectation was that the people they were visiting would pay for the drinks, but I can't find that story now. I was under the impression that "free as in beer" was a cultural idiom which, if true, would make it further understandable why people not familiar with hacker culture wouldn't have the context to make the "free as in beer" expression make sense.
> a value in binary, a decimal places value, whatever odd logic there is required to hide the leaky abstraction.

Ironically, this is a much better description of `decimal` than of `float`.

IEEE float math is done in hardware. It is "one value in binary" that is added, subtracted, multiplied, etc etc with electric circuits.

The decimal abstraction requires manually keeping track of the number of significant digits, converting back and forth so that two different decimals can be added / multiplied, etc etc. There's a lot more that has to happen besides asking the CPU to do a single operation.
His reporting on Syria lost him some credibility. It appears from my perspective that he has a bias toward always thinking the U.S. is the culprit. Given the power of the U.S. and it’s history of shenanigans he’ll often times be right.

How is Google competing with ChatGPT different than Facebook competing with Snapchat stories?

Much of LLM research was pioneered at Google...
It takes people's time to build runways. That's time they won't be building other valuable things.

You're ignoring the core truth of the comment you're replying to: Scarcity exists. There is no way to have it all; there are only compromises. Simply walking is dangerous because you could fall. We could all go back to being infants* crawling on the floor if we wanted to be safer. But we won't. Making more compromises in the name of safety has to be justified. Planes will never be perfectly safe. That is okay.
I predict people will soon run out of countries to move to. This will be implemented everywhere eventually, sadly.
Force is only justified in response to force.
As far as economic advantage goes, keep in mind that carbon emission famously is an unpriced externality. Everyone's given up on trying to put carbon pricing into place to make the economics "naturally" work out, but in a world where heat pumps and methane gas have similar to-the-consumer pricing, the true cost of heat pumps is lower.
you can use it with floats just fine if your condition boundary is a "whole number float", like running from 0.0 to 1.0 in steps of "some small increment". It's only when your boundary has a non-zero fraction that you're going to have to be more careful.
> Why? (Genuine question).

Because in an ideal situation (as indicated with your last sentence) you'd have a bunch of active competitors yielding up better and better products. Not one active competitor with the singular new thing and a couple of reactive competitors that can't get things right.

Search is also supporting a lot of relatively free innovation at Alphabet. If ChatGPT sinks that innovation (or at least makes it non-free) the loss may be more than the gain.
"* money that is programmed to only be spent on certain goods or services"

This is basically a rationing system, like the olden days in China and the Soviet Union, where it wasn't enough to have money, you also needed a ration coupon to buy the good. Everything was rationed not just food, but bolts of clothes, consumer goods of any type, electronics (if you were fortunate enough to be able to afford it).

In this way the regime controlled scarcity and ensured loyalty and favoritism by awarding special rations and coupons for those who uphold the correct ideology and "meritorious labor". Each month your work unit issued a new ration book for the month that is based on your families' allotment of grains, cooking oil, clothing, soap, etc. If you are being a bad boy and you don't get your ration book for the month, you can't buy the goods in the state supply shop and have to go the black market.

Thus pure money wasn't good enough to live well or even to survive in those systems - one needed connections and access and the authorities can cancel your access at any time.

That is what a CBDC has the potential to evolve to and what worries me - a digital ration book. If all a CBDC is is digital cash, then we already have that system (Visa, e-payments, etc) and things won't change much but if a CBDC is a programmable form of money that can be disabled, inflated at will, turned off, or only allowed to buy certain goods - then there is no limit to the amount of tyranny that will be on hand. In a free country common people will not and should not accept it.
If that's your hill, add Turkey, India and Russia to the list. Brazil we'll know in few days.
Nobody is saying they do it casually. People genuinely believe they are without fault, which leads to stuff like Heartbleed (and many others; from 2017 to 2020 there was a number of HN submissions about various well-known pieces of software having buffer under/over-flows).

I heard the ideal theory you cite, many many times. Yet many people still do mistakes. How does that fit in your world-view?
Am I a bad dad if my son doesn't know the difference? Because he's not chained to a desk he uses it for the same purpose as his high end custom built PC.

I meant it in the sense of, "it takes the place of and serves almost all the same purposes in usages as..."
So use an Invidious instance. Sure, YouTube blocks the subtitles for some of them, but if you need subtitles, it only takes a couple of minutes to find one of the new subtitles-available instance, and you're good for at least a few months.
It's funny because I find if I get my sites working properly in Firefox, they work everywhere.
It makes sense for other countries since they don't have global giants to pay absurd amounts. But Japan has it's fair share of these global entities, their salaries in theory should be competing with those of the US. Maybe it's the language barrier that gives their companies some leverage in negotiations?
wgpu supports both a SPIR-V passthrough mode [0] and a regular SPIR-V mode where it will get some transformations added to it (e.g. bounds checks are added on backends without VK_KHR_robustness). I don't believe Dawn has a similar passthrough mode, only a SPIR-V -> transform -> SPIR-V path.

Yes, it's strongly influenced by clip-interrogator, but I revamped the algorithm quite a bit. I think it could be improved even further without resorting to fine-tuning the BLIP model.
If I'm to expand on my (admittedly a little facetious) parent comment, it would be to say:

I'm not arguing that ChatGPT has no use. My argument is that I strongly suspect the long term negative externalities of large language models will vastly exceed any positive impact they will have on society. And humanity has a pretty clearly established track record in terms of widespread deployment of things that bring some immediate utility but whose longterm consequences we don't understand upfront. CFC's, artificial sweeteners, cigarettes, lead paint, social media, React Hooks, so on and so on and so on, ad infinitum, ad nauseam.

I guess I'm just surprised how easily people are able to put aside their terror (as you put it) in exchange for some of that sweet, sweet, short-term utility. They're two sides of the same coin. You're ushering in tomorrow's consequences, unseen.
Some games are difficult. Depending on the ui elements though, you could work around them.
If the problem is small text, there is little you can do, but with steam controls you can create custom uis for input, which makes some unplayable games very playable.
Yes by 'Bold' I mean Onyx.

As you said, the Storm was developed in a year so some corners (especially the OS side) were cut. The Onyx was 'properly' engineered so (internally) everything was better and easier to deal with.
Since when is saying countries should have their own social media platforms "racist"? You think it was "racist" for europe to develop airbus? You think a nation should rely on a foreign power for their social media needs? You think a nation should let a foreign power control their electricity?

Saying nations should empower themselves isn't "racism". It's the opposite of racism.
I didn't realize that HN was included in Erdogan's bot army targets
It’s more powerful than a Switch for sure, but they’re different hardware classes. For a handheld, the Switch is far more portable and has a much better screen and battery life.

That said, I don't get why Nintendo doesn't do a $500 Switch. I get that they’re about the gameplay and graphics come as an afterthought, but seriously their own launch title could not hit a consistent 30fps which is simply unacceptable. They cant keep using the gameplay excuse for being wildly out of touch with hardware reality.
Independent polling agrees with you: https://www.rbc.ru/politics/18/05/2022/62825a8f9a794718a6e85...

And the Russian leadership certainly is gerontocratic: https://meduza.io/en/feature/2022/01/31/the-old-guard

As for the social leverage, I don't think they have much on the national level. However, I feel the lower-rung govt staff is mostly composed of 50-something women, and these also dominate meetings of homeowner associations. The men are either hard at work or already dead, and the younger people are not numerous and don't have much rights.
Thanks for the answer, I was genuinely curious about the advantages/disadvantages of these approaches. But indeed, types that completely exclude ‘nulls’ seem to be the cleaner solution — though I wonder whether that is even possible to retrofit to Java.
Definitely true, but having zero redundancy doesn't seem like uptime is a high concern.
Rust support was merged into GCC in December: https://www.phoronix.com/news/GCC-13-Rust-Merged
Parent commenter is saying that in many cases when you write something like

let foo = 0.1 + 0.2;

the vast majority of the time people want 0.1 and 0.2 to be decimals, not floats, so they should default to that.
I appreciate the willingness to try it! Thanks!

This put my daughter off of programming. When she was 7, I showed her how to use python in immediate mode, and she got it without difficulty. She even understood variables. Then one day she wanted to add prices, and she got one of these errors, and she never wanted anything to do with it again.
Your argument relies on two strong assumption, "everything private economy is good", and "everything government is bad". Unless you add strong reasoning behind it such blanket arguments I default to scepticism.
Curiously, all the people that support such censorship in western countries are actually against it in this instance. Almost like whether or not they choose to support a policy depends not on what it does but instead on who it’s being done to.
This smells like a good fit for Haskell, since computation is deferred until a result is demanded. I haven't tried it but I can imagine an implementation of, for example, division that would do its best to keep the numerator and denominator intact in their original formats until forced to kick out a value.

(My Haskell-fu isn't deep, but I suspect it would even be possible to write it so that, for example, multiplication of two division operation expressions multiplied the numerators together instead of doing divide -> divide -> multiply...).

Erdogan and his ilk single-handedly made me hesitant about donating, that regardless who I donate to, they’ll find a way to line their pockets. I ended up donating, do the same, but Erdogan is a bastard man.
Franklin stoves sold like hotcakes too, didn’t they? As an improvement over the hearth and the pot arm, which were themselves improvements over the three stone fire (which is still used by an alarming number of humans today).
