Agreed, speaking in absolutes is a self imposed cage.

You end up either having to lose credibility or forcing yourself to live by something you don't actually believe in anymore. Ignoring the fact that speaking like that just comes out as arrogant
When Google started putting ads at the top of their search results that looks exactly like the organic search results (only differentiated with a tiny "Ad" label) is when they truly lost me.

Everything up until that point I could attribute to ignorance and laziness instead of malice. But at some point somebody at Google suggested that a new way to drive ad clicks could be to confuse and trick their users, and everybody else in the room nodded along.
They do own like 6% of SpaceX I think.
1. Export the Jenkins job configuration

Go to the job you want to migrate and select "Configure." From there, you can either save the configuration to a file or copy the XML configuration to the clipboard.

2. Import the Jenkins job into Harness

Harness provides a Jenkins job importer that allows you to easily import your Jenkins job configuration. To do this, into Harness account navigate to the "Workflows" page. From there, select "Import" and follow the prompts to..
Nice! I wrote something similar for my workplace a couple of years ago based around Rx (as Rx has many implementations in different languages - we had a multi-node browser/server requirement, and optimization in a streaming DSL is easier than SQL, as you've done, as you can hint+order lazy materializations) and libs like https://pypi.org/project/lquery/ to do pushdown queries.

Are you planning on doing reactive/live/materialized queries?
You could use a config file to specify the live queries (in the Trustfall DSL) which can be fed to the engine on startup.
I expect that if he thought highly of them he just wouldn't say anything and that this is close to his real opinion.
Look at the google graveyard, good lord Google please step up!
GI is here, now. It doesn't seem to have much effect on the decision process. Why do you think AGI would have any effect?

At least directly. Theoretically, I guess, if AGI somehow precipitated a significant increase in global education levels and, especially, female education levels, then it would have an indirect effect on birth rates. But I'm not sure what that link from AGI to education would entail.
Every time they try to innovate or expand, they shoot themselves in the foot. They might have to stop comparing any endeavour they take with their Search revenue and let them fly free for a decade or so before making such U-turn decisions (talking about Stadia here)

Munich has spiralled out of control in this aspect.
Paying a given salary in Germany is a lot more expensive for a company than paying the exact same salary in America. There are both more taxes on the employer side and more labor regulations that cost money to comply with. The number of hours worked tends to be different, too.

That rad power bike in the article is already quite shitty with the high cargo position compared to a more sensible approach to put cargo in a front bed.

This bike seems to have been designed to carry kids at the bike, not haul stuff.
Google has had the monopoly for a long. I don't think it would be easy to overthrow them but Bing + GPT stands a good chance.
People sometimes fault them for removing content (not their fault, everyone saw Netflix works and made a streaming service of their own) and cancelling series too quickly and erratically (true). Also people have a problem with the average quality, but seem to misunderstand Netflix's business - they need to have lots of content, one very good series per year isn't going to keep subscribers on the service. They have great quality stuff, and meh filler that some enjoy.

So all in all, disagreements with direction, but nothing wrong/evil on the level of any of the FAAN.
I mean, there's some beauty to having all output as string. It's more predictable. But soon you're jumping through so many hoops to get what you want, it's terrible.

I've been learning PowerShell ever since it was launched, but it took me many years to realize it's actually better than bash. Sometimes you have two learn tô stop fighting the tool and embrace it instead.

I still hate the naming schema, though.
My main gripe with hackathons is they cheapen IT work.

If you let yourself be subjected to crunching out bad quality code while eating pizza and being hyped by loud music - which is basically the equivalent of a child's birthday party at an indoor playground - management will see you as children and thus treat you as such.
Oh, I always thought it only works on numbers, and am very pleasantly surprised to learn it works on numeric prefixes, thank you!

EDIT: After playing around with the python approach, I arrived at this, which is definitely more verbose, but arguably, more maintainable:

import re
NUMERIC_PREFIX_RE = re.compile(r"^(\d+.?\d*)")

def numeric_descending(line):
if m := NUMERIC_PREFIX_RE.match(line):
return -float(m.group())
return float("inf")

matches = {l for l in open("beef.txt") if "lasagna" in l}
print(*sorted(matches, key=numeric_descending), sep="")
Sure, and have to remember to do that every single time you mint a new Docker image for use in CI, every single time you spin up a new Cloud workstation, every single time you get a new physical workstation, every single time you have to run a job in a brand new environment, every single time you... etc, etc, etc.

Thing that work inside the Googleplex often don't work for the rest of us. Not every company is a multi-billion-dollar behemoth that can afford to spend hundreds of millions of dollars annually to work exclusively on internal developer-tooling.

Why don't you go ahead and open Bing.com interface right now and search for some things. Do come back and explain to me in detail the "good chance" they stand.
Thank you for your feedback. I updated my comment to make it clear that it was ChatGPT replying to my question.
Thanks for the metaphor, I had forgotten about it. I'm of course biased myself, having started to use sway as my main "DE" in 2018. Sway is quite mature nowadays, though it still has a few bugs.

> keyboard/mouse sharing

I'm curious by what you mean with this?

Adding a second set of mouse/keyboards with their independent focus is for me simply a matter of running a few commands:

swaymsg -t get_inputs # lists input, allows you to identify which inputs you want to add to another seat
swaymsg seat my-new-seat attach my:second:mouse:identifier
swaymsg seat my-new-seat attach my:second:keyboard:identifier
swaymsg seat my-new-seat xcursor_theme Breeze_Snow

Of course, this can be added to the configuration file to make the settings persistent.
With this, a second cursor appears for the second mouse, with a different cursor theme, and a different focus, tied with the second keyboard. I can type into a terminal, and have another person next to me type a comment in the Firefox window next to it.

I'm not sure if that's what you mean by it, but it feels better and easier to configure than what we had with X.
There are a few bugs where apps don't handle multiple seats that well, and Xwayland applications are a bit left out (especially with cursor themes IIRC).
I really hate working fully remote so much. I love going to the office and meeting people. It gives me energy and a sense of belonging. I would never want to work for a fully remote company.
I can't take an article seriously that starts like this:

> The greenies’ dream of “clean” (except for millions of dead birds) energy from wind farms is dying in the face of the poor economics (even with tax subsidies) and unreliable technology

Stupid greenies! I was right to be sceptic, look at the end:

> It is beyond the time to end subsidies for wind power. Not only has atmospheric CO2 risen without serious consequence, the doomsaying models proven consistently wrong, but the financial thumb on the scale via subsidies has encouraged development of a technology that is still immature, if it ever will be viable.

Can't trust an article that gets basic facts wrong. FT reports differently: https://www.ft.com/content/74ff8ff7-8009-413a-8f2e-2a3c34695...
>Make yourself valuable to negotiate better terms, or look for something better

I could not agree more. You would always have leverage with salary negotiations during interviews if you can justify the value you bring on the table. For technical positions, unless the hiring process does not involve any technical assessment, it's quite easy to spot who knows what they're doing from those who are just good on paper.
Yes, you can sell your iPhone and buy a similar-age Android phone with similar parameters - and you'll probably earn a few bucks on it since iPhones keep their value better.
> This struck me... Us techy people should be able to use our knowledge to get more out of our tech setups.

You are going up against a probably 1000s strong team of equally techy people whose job it is to do what you are trying to cobble together. Unless there is a niche use case that you are trying to workaround, it is hard to solve a mainstream problem that isn't solved better by one of the Big Corps.

Germany was hesitant/not fully committed on Ukraine support because of ongoing discussions with Russia about NordStream.

This is also a way to send a strong message to Putin.
CEO sees tremendous benefits in business buying his product. He is confident his product can help displace "lethargic" market leader. Not exactly news.

The serenity with which ChatGPT provides false information, the lack of alternative responses and sources in the answers makes for a quite a challenge for a search engine. Can it be done in a way that dethrones Google? I'll believe it when I see it.
And Anthropic Claude's contribution to the discussion was a condescending remark questioning your competence with COBOL.

You see / hear it all the time. Some hot shot new CEO bashing the bigger companies. This didn't end well for quite a few CEOs recently.

Google is no longer a Unicorn it is a Shark... Sharks have been around for a long time.
Wow! Big differences!

Ocaml has a VM which is included by default (70kb), and can also compile to native (skip the VM altogether). It has been like that since at least 2002 (the first time I checked it, probably before that).

Haskell has HKT, which generalize generics.

Java and C# share 95% ideas in comparison to stuff outside Java/C#. That's why the comparison is boring: there is very little to compare.
They are. Google haven’t released a major product in fifteen years. 80% of their revenue is still advertising.
Wow. I had three Birthdays at Howie’s pizza place (Shakey’s) in Muncie. His son is still in the restaurant biz and owns Famous Recipe Chicken, which is a Central Indiana classic.
Let's say you and two friends are buying a group ticket to some show. The ticket costs $100. Now try to find a way to pay exactly 1/3 each.

Money transfers tend to involve payments with fixed precisions. For cash, it's often rounded to the smallest available coin, for credit cards, you can add a few more digits, but it will still be fixed point.

When you settle a transaction, you typically need to pay exactly the amount defined by the transaction because some system is doing some check that the amount is exactly right.

So in my example above, if your friends are paying $33.33 you may have to pay $33.34 to make the transaction go through.

When you're writing systems involved in actual money transfers (or accounting) you tend to be better off using fixed point decimal, with predefined precision for each variable involved.

Within a calculation, it may be fine to use float, but the number going into ledgers or transactions need to have the predefined precision.
Google is still about sources. That deserves respect. If this new wave of deep learning AI means sources are hard to find, that's unfair and dangerous because it's hard to validate and correct information. The downfall of using deep learning as a shortcut to the symbolic AI approach. A good AI search result should look like an annotated research paper, or a well curated Wikipedia article.
Will it though? The 10 billion Microsoft investment has to be returned first from what I understood.
The content filters do not apply in English only, I am fluent in Slovak and tried it out, it refused to swear or do anything offensive, and replied with the classic "As an AI model I cannot..." copypasta
Transmission is free, free of bloat, and it works well. Cannot ask for more.
Now he's the founder of chat gpt ?
Sam Altman is not a 'ChatGPT founder' and he's the PR man for a research institution, not a business, so he's should be wary of comparing his org. to Google.

Though he's obviously right.

What's interesting is that so few people are in a position to say it out loud.

That says a lot about the power dynamics of the Tech World.

Sam obviously has another 'lazy monopoly' to protect him from the fallout from his PR statements; or more likely they're chosen words and he's now working for the 'other lazy monopoly' saying what Satya does won't say.

Everyone should recognize the fact this language is being used as a welcome shakeup in the system.

When Epic spoke out against Apple they failed to start a revolution and paid a heavy price, though it's likely they did get some balls rolling.

If any of you are younger than 30 it might literally have been since you were a teenager that we had a lot of 'game' in the system.

Things have consolidated in the last decade, it really did used to be much more wild.

I'm not being cynical, negative or even 'harshly Darwinian' when I state that I really hope one of the Big Cos crashes and burns. The system needs to be loosened up. We don't need 'decentralization' but we do need out from under the thumb of the very powerful tech companies.
I am a bit worried by the various immodest public statements Sam has made in the last few days. A bit more gravitas would be welcome.
> Too bad its first letter collides with Desktop, Downloads and Documents, all of which cannot be removed.

For a "clean" home directory I started to visible hide default folders I have no interest in:

chflags hidden ~/Music

Still available in the shell or in the Finder with the ⇧⌘. shortcut but out of the way in normal use. Return to normal with the flag nohidden. Although Documents and Desktop seem to be a special case because of the iCloud shenanigans. I seem to have hidden them in the past, but can’t unhide them. :/
Why? Why wouldn’t a CEO say what’s best for business, regardless of what they think of their competitors?
Anonymous message is never strong. Non-anonymous message is a casus belli.
How did this get to the top of HN?
You might want to look at computational biology. Jim Allison won the Nobel Prize back in 2018 for his work on immunotherapy for cancer and there's a lot of basic research work to be done to perfect this approach. Epigenetic clocks are really interesting too (see Steve Horvath's work). Also, there's synthetic biology, where you could, for example, explore this package that's written in Go: https://github.com/TimothyStiles/poly
ASP.NET 7 with c# as a programming language.
The tooling is mature, it's not going to rot. I've realize a lot of framework are great in theory but getting started and staying afloat is hard.

This framework is typesafe, you can use: React, Angular, MVC, Blazor, Pages.

Everything you need.

In second position, i would pick any top 10 php framework: Laravel, Symfony, Yii.

Why, because they are simple to work with and to deploy.

One piece of advice I learned to only write code that works for now, just write
Thinking that CEOs of anything are honest and truthful is a dangerous naivete.
OS X used to be a very decent out-of-the-box server OS, that also came with an actually usable GUI to configure many things.

A friend of mine would put a "shared" Mac Mini somewhere in the office at almost every job he's ever had, "just in case". Need to let a guest browse the web? The router is failing? Transcode some media? It always came in clutch.
And that's perfectly fine. Nobody else does it better. Plus why should Google focus on other non profitable verticals
Sadly the negative experiences are much more negative than the positive ones are positive.

When we get / do / have something REALLY want, the satisfaction will wane very quickly. When something bad happens, it will follow us for months.
I’ll be happy to once I’m off the waitlist
I love that people are not recognizing the fact that Google has been doing this ChatGPT stuff (to an extent) for years now. "People also ask", "Featured Snippets", the sidebar card panel for big topics.

All Google has to do now is redo their UI a bit to make you the user feel like they are experiencing the ChatGPT experience.

It's also obscenely hilarious how much hype there is around this whole topic, knowing very well that neither Google or Bing will turn their search engines into the actual ChatGPT interface.

You think Google is about to wipe out its ad business to appease a small portion of its userbase? Think again.
Ask HN: Are alternative (oil, nu, etc.) shells usable as daily drivers?
Hello folks,

People using alternative shells (oil shell, nu shell, etc) as daily drivers, how is your daily experience?

I'm talking about a professional work experience, i.e. you use the shell as your daily driver at your workplace, not just for playing around.

Fish is probably usable, but outside of fish, is there any other production-ready alternative shell?
From experience, 4 day week doesn’t really help. You end up doing just as much work as people on 5 days but getting paid less, getting overlooked because you’re less present, and consequently feeling resentful AND overworked. A 4 day week is great for other reasons though.
The bit you quoted from https://openai.com/blog/introducing-openai/ goes on to say "OpenAI’s co-chairs are Sam Altman and Elon Musk." Did you not read that far?

There's no parser generator; its primary purpose is to document how a format looks and works (similar to what ABNF and EBNF do). I am trying to make it consistent enough that tools could be made for it, however.

The & is something I added later, and I thought I'd updated all of the examples but I must have missed some. Using whitespace as an operator was just causing too much trouble and making the more complex grammars harder for a human to follow, which is why I opted to make every operation require an actual symbol, and leave whitespace without semantic value.
It was when it came out in the form of App Engine. It was when it released managed Kubernetes and then managed containers within Kubernetes (Cloud Run using Knative behind the scenes).
Well I would say not directly, some of my supplements have Zinc, but that is as far as it went.

Not to be a contrarian but I would just like to note that we can't install wind turbines to produce all electricity needed. Wind turbines only produce electricity when the wind blows and thus can only be part of the energy infrastructure. Even countries like Denmark who has invested heavily in wind since early 90s still only gets a low total amount from wind and has coal powered power plants as backbone energy source. The sensationalist headlines showing 40% electricity production (not total energy) from wind is only in peak periods.

I doubt it is possible to cover the total energy needs without a reliable source like a power plant. I am all for green energy, but reliability and cost are equally important parameters.
Ask HN: Is anyone else getting AI fatigue?
AI is great. ChatGPT is incredible. But I feel tired when I see so many new products being built that incorporate AI in some way, like "AI for this..." "AI for that..." I think it misapplies AI. But more than that, it's just too much. Right? Right? Anyone else feel like this? Everything is about ChatGPT, AI, prompts or startups we can build with that. It's like the crypto craze all over again, and I'm a little in dread of the shysters again, the waste, the opportunity cost of folks pursuing this like a mad crowd rather than being a little more thoughtful about where to go next. Not a great look for the "scene" methinks. Am I alone in this view?
Yes, that is why residents are paid pennies. But once you are fully qualified surgeon, your are in the artificially limited pool of people who can operate on patients. Which leads to high salaries for surgeons.
I guess a mac only application for disk burning becomes a bit pointless when there’s no macs with disc drives any more.
Would it be possible to host on DO Spaces? That's even cheaper than S3 I think. I'm in the same boat, too many images to host them on a Droplet.
ChatGPT have changed the game and Google is finally forced to compete again. However, people who say it's doom and gloom for Google can't see the forest for the trees.

1. Google is one of the most beloved brands in the world. Only Apple's brand is stronger.

2. Chrome has taken over Windows and it's the default browser on Android. Also, Google pays Apple to be the default search engine on iOS.

3. Bing.com on desktop is already years behind Google in UI & UX. Add the ChatGPT part on the right side of the search results and it gets from bad to worse.

4. Google will release a competent answer to ChatGPT at I/O 2023. It's going to be much more polished than Microsoft's version. Microsoft will steal some users from Google but Google will recover. Like Satya Nadella said in the recent The Verge interview, they are looking to steal away one user at a time.
Yes, exactly, I already swallowed the poisoned pill when I installed Windows. Although arguably some ChatGPT queries are far more personal than even having access to your entire filesystem.
Let's not bring any nuance to this conversation. It's all about "ME ME ME ME ME AND ME!". I don't have children, so obviously my arrangement is superior and has to be codified for everyone and anyone everywhere and you are WRONG if you disagree.

(Seriously, this debate is about as dumb as any other american political debate, just bunch of myopic people screaming at each other with no ability to think.)
