I think you hit the nail on the head, it does frustrate me. Not only because it's repeated often, but also because it's applied equally everywhere. Look at this project for example. It's an extension for arXiv, a pre print repository for cutting edge research, do we really need to keep the entirety of humanity in mind while making this? Because that's what the original comment was saying. The way I see it, arXiv is mostly looked at by experts who would know when something is completely off, and will probably look into things further than reading the GPT summary. If I was still actively doing research and hitting the site every day, this would have immensely streamlined my flow (maybe with a few tweaks to the prompt to emphasize certain sections which I'm usually more interested in).

But that's not how any of this is discussed. That's where my scope comment comes from, the scope of every project cannot be "for everyone and 100% safe from the beginning". In this way there is no encouragement to discuss/make better things, just discouragement. I, personally, hate this.
Not to mention more taxes if you are buying and selling a lot. As an individual, I would probably just do discretionary stock picks and buy & hold fundamental analysis. After working at an HFT firm, I've more or less realized that institutional level trading (or things that try to emulate it at the retail level) are pretty difficult for little return. It would be a fun side project, but as a way of getting money, not so sure...
I gave two counter-examples of different economic systems. It’s clear capitalism isn’t the problem if you think about why those other systems failed.
It is what Nvidia's boss Jensen Huang calls [1] The iPhone moment of AI.

Basically every AI ( so to speak ) before ChatGPT is like Smartphone 1.0. Blackberry, Sony Ericsson, Nokia Symbian etc. ChatGPT is the Smartphone 2.0, aka iPhone era.

It look iPhone many years to reach mass adoption. MKBHD, as tech savvy as he is only had his first Smartphone in iPhone 4S era. ( If I remember correctly ). And then Phablet ( Any Screen larger than 5" ) came. I think we are at the end of that curve, 15 years after the iPhone introduction.

I think ChatGPT will follow a similar path. And if it was iPhone that pushed TSMC to sustain our current semiconductor improvement for the past ~10 years, then it will be ChatGPT that pushes us towards 1A ( 1nm ) node for another decade.

I don't know if it was so much regional--except as a side effect of different regions having different types of companies. It was probably mostly startups, especially web-related startups, that took the brunt of the initial impact and the contagion probably spread at a rate more or less related to the degree of exposure to the startup ecosystem. There were some other areas like optical networking too.

The company I was laid off from had a lot of exposure to startup spending whereas the one I was hired by mostly had big blue chip computer company clients which were (at the time) still only modest affected by dot-bomb.

That is an opinion that you're absolutely entitled to have.

My own opinion is that the cats out of the bag so whatever's going to happen is going to happen wrt LLMs. But trying to shut down all criticism of a new thing just because you think it's cool is itself not cool.

And those little tots sure do look cute spinning the 'saws right?
Yeah, fire departments don't do that here in Germany as well... legal requirement is that the licensed professional has a license according to the norm DIN 14 406 pt. 4. I had a quick google about the situation in the US, turns out there seem to be zero requirements on who does an inspection [1] - utterly mind-boggling.

In your case I'd search for a company that is certified by NICET [2].

> Cutting corners on boarding houses will lead to fire catastrophes.

Nobody denies this. The question is whether said fire catastrophes really claim more lives than homelessness and wintering on the street. (Obviously fire catastrophes are a bigger PR problem and get more media attention, but is that really the appropriate metric for human suffering?)
> Wait until a slightly more advanced version

Yes, and therein lies the issue - that last crucial 1%, 0.1% may be impossible to achieve (sort of like attaining lightspeed travel)
I was searching starting in October, but not laid off. I applied to ~20 places, didn't hear back from any of them. I turned on #OpenToWork on LinkedIn and got ~150 recruiters reaching out per month, of which <4% were offering competitive compensation. I got to the hiring manager stage for 75% of the ones I responded to, and failed 100% of the leetcode style programming challenges I was given. Two companies didn't have that round, so I made it to the offer stage on both of those, and accepted one in December. I didn't use my network at all.

Recruiter outreach has dried up significantly on LinkedIn, so I'm not sure this is still valid, even though it was <2 months ago.
Yeah 55dB at night, must be nice. I guarantee you these NIMBYs believe it is their God-granted entitlement to drive their cars at 70 MPH down the freeways of Northern Virginia like I-395 and the Beltway, where the 55dB contour extends for hundreds of meters from the centerline of the road, right into the homes of numerous families.
I mean it is possible to define "bad", but it would be something like "the common actions take too many keypresses". And that's about it, which isn't really a problem KiCad has anyway.

Even default keybindings are very personal. Some prefer to focus most of the common ones in one place (say around the qwer/asdf/zxcv cluster) so you don't need to move hand much, while others would rather go by easier to remember names and have [M]ove and [D]rag. I guess you can still define the "bad" here by neither intuitive nor convenient, which is to say "LTSpice", but most programs are not that.

$0.01 is too low, but $0.50 is way too high except for longer articles. I read so much on a day that paying 50c for every article would ruin me.
What are the “a lot of things?” Sure, construction standards are a bit higher but the technology is also much better and faster to build with.

Speculation and landowner greed are the primary drivers of rising housing costs (with restrictive zoning being an consequence of the first two).

I don't think that's a dup, since that submission didn't seem to get much traction.
It doesn't have to be a subscription, you can have a "wallet" that users add to periodically in increments of $10 or something. Blendle was a service like this, you made a single smallish purchase to add money to your wallet and then slowly spent ~25 cents per article until you needed to top up again.
> Saying that checking for updates is a privacy violation just means that everything is lumped together

Your IP address is considered PII. Hell with a timestamp you can easily track the behavior of people. When do they work, when are they asleep, which holidays do they observe, when are they on vacation, ... . You can get really creepy with a tiny amount of actual information and some statistical analysis.
> The parcel is zoned for a single-family home.

That seems to be about zoning, not building codes.
Yes.

Reasonable abuse protection clearly falls under that, as has been fairly clearly stated even in the GDPR itself: https://gdpr-info.eu/recitals/no-49/
>as much as can be expected after the big one

It blows my mind to think that at some point in history the world's 2nd largest metro center (by GDP) is going to become rubble, and everyone knows about it, and we know it will happen for sure but there's not much that could be done but wait and see.
Wow this is finally happening! Big fan of this team and this product! Congrats for this launch, this is the first milestone of an amazing journey reinventing billing for tech companies!
Basically everyone I know is on either extreme. Either they say "It just makes stuff up and it's totally useless!" and some how not even admitting it's very cool, or acting like it's going to lead to all of us just being homeless and 1% of of the population that owns the AI having even more wealth.
Twilio doesn't seem very inflation-sensitive to me? They're mostly software, there's no complicated supply chain.
In ~10 minutes of asking for an outline first and then asking it to fill in functions it left unimplemented in the first replies, I got ChatGPT to provide the basics of a DNS server from scratch that I only had to correct about two lines of to be able to run and execute queries against.

This isn't a hard problem (it's a few dozen lines of code to do the bare minimum, maybe a couple of hundreds to add a reasonably full featured parser), but it involved a conversation of refining it that wasn't just "fill in this missing detail", but e.g. asking it to implement parsing of the query package in a specific language (Ruby), using a specific API, and using a specific format. Ruby ships with a DNS implementation; the ChatGPT solution looks nothing like either the standard Ruby implementation or the alternative Ruby DNS implementations I've checked.

You must know parrots with better reasoning skills than I do.

[EDIT: Note that I specifically picked this exactly because I was sceptical of how well it'd do, it's something I've done before myself, with a protocol I know well enough to be able to evaluate the code without much effort]

Maybe tax the sh*t out of whatever profits they make in oppressive countries? "Go ahead and profit from dealing with Whateverstan, but we'll take most of it away from you."

That would be disastrous for families with multiple kids. They may not be able to afford to buy, but able to rent. Forcing them all into an apartment can be chaotic.
> don't believe in helping their fellow man

Well, ok, since you started it - how much do you, personally, donate to homeless shelters and food banks? You have a lot of discretionary income to do so since your taxes are lower than you appear that you would like them to be.
Thank you. I do consider myself programming able but new to the ML ecosystem.
Well, the code is always overzealous (never met an exception), and the smaller the house the more overzealous it is.

If it wasn't, we would have a much easier time persecuting people that breaks it, and much more public sympathy for large culprits that actually have much fewer (relatively to their capacity) strings over then than any random person. The same applies to fire codes.
And reporters covering the situation (The Athletic)
The examples in the linked article are reinforced concrete structure that were missing their steel reinforcement. So... no, not really, unless you have an xray setup or whatever. This is precisely why we have building codes and certified inspectors to sign off on construction projects.
I think the earthquake is a standalone counter-argument to not wanting proper safety standards. Of the remaining buildings, how many are to be condemned as unsafe? I'm not sure what the homelessness problem is in Turkey, but I imagine it's now far worse.
Any commercial building I'm in (in Germany) does that. The fire extuingishers have little stickers when the next inspection is due, and seeing that out of date by more than two months or so is a major red flag. Same with fire extinguishers in the hallways of bigger apartment buildings.

For private people it's less common to do that.
Given that there are, like a billion cameras in the U.S.? There aren't many (any?) photos of these things.
How many benefitted from cheaper and more accessible housing as a result of the lax enforcement of building codes? I remain unconvinced that obscenely strict building codes are a net-positive.

From the GH page, guess they got their notification.
These programs are often made by commercial entities (like BBC Worldwide, which is separate from the normal state funded BBC) who license their material to foreign streaming services like Netflix.

If every impactful documentary would be given away for free, there's no incentive for anyone to pay the company behind it to make more. Journalism is expensive and I don't think enough people would donate to a large corporation through Patreon.

I would love documentaries like these to be available without restriction, but when it comes to copyright and business model, it really does come close to Moanna or Eastenders.
You can absolutely kill yourself writing C++ code...

To my shame, I almost did when I was fucking around with a microcontroller hooked up to some fairly powerful motors.

Not everyone uses code to make smartphone apps and video games, or computer applications. A vast amount is used to control everything from your car to your toaster :/

edit: Oh, I also botched the charging for some lithium ion cells and caused them to combust.

Shit, now I feel like I'm refuting your point about death-by-C++, but also supporting that we need more regulations to protect against idiots like myself.
The point being made above is, I believe, that the wake-up call was two months ago during the rail strike.

It is all too clear to those who were paying attention during the strike how hard the Biden admin tried to suppress any public understanding about the actual concerns of the rail workers.
"Do more with less" is perfectly fine and rational.

"Do less with more and line my pockets along the way" is the problem.

If customers were _paying less_ for the substandard construction they're getting, okay that's one thing. But if customers are paying more, and they _think_ they're getting sturdy code-compliant construction, but contractors at one or more levels are skimming money and using substandard materials and techniques, then that's a corruption, enforcement, and auditing problem.
If the policy goal is zero accidents, and that policy goal isn't being reached, then this is a political discussion.

Using the negative consequences of current policy as political leverage to advocate for a different policy is what the political system is for.

We're talking about a fairly major chemical spill that appears to have killed all the pets in a small town and is likely to have ongoing health consequences, and was likely brought about by a negligent approach to running a multi-billion dollar industrial enterprise.

The only thing I would be confused about is why all the other disasters of this scale (which, I would argue, there actually aren't hundreds of) aren't also becoming well-publicized inputs into our political discussion.
Population growth stopped exceeding productivity growth when we figured out how to do everything with energy taken from non-renewable natural resources. We grow people from oil, cities from oil, etc. Malthusian limits may not be an issue as long as we have oil, but of course we also are making earth inhospitable to human life as we go.
It's neither sudden nor backhanded — if either of those characterizations were accurate, we'd have learned about it from something shipping. Announcing it publicly before implementing anything and having a number of privacy protections built-in suggests neither is a fair description.

Reading through the use-cases at https://research.swtch.com/telemetry-uses one thing to consider is that these are the kinds of things people care about as a project matures — once you have a large number of people depending on your project, you have to worry more about unintended consequences as you evolve and since the user community has grown larger and the project more stable it's also harder to know whether the people you hear from regularly are representative. When a project is small or mostly used by enthusiasts you can be more confident that your understanding of what people are doing is relatively accurate but that just isn't true over time. For example, how many millions of Java developers never contact Oracle or the OpenJDK developers throughout their entire careers?
I'd be interested to read a version of this comment that substantiates its criticisms.
I anticipate AI will slowly start to be realized to reveal the nature of not only human language, but also human cognition, which may lead to us starting to become more self-aware as individuals and a species......like, if we happened to somehow have accurate historical statistics on the matter, we'd see major jumps on the chart representing significant events in history (invention of the printing press, the first enlightenment and rise of science / retreat of religion, etc), and this event will (possibly) turn out to be another instance of the relatively rare phenomenon.
Yep. That was directed at the "everything is fine" post above.
I love the Twilio product line, but always saw it as classic Product Lead Growth, self-service, self-scale. Surprised to hear of their troubles.

As far as I understand it there's no legal precedent, so we're not completely sure. Some say calling an api means it's part of your application, meaning you need to open source your app. Some say that that's not the case. I think this unknown is why the license is banned in some companies.

I think what matters more is how the creators of the software intend the license. In case of Lago it's clear they want you to use it this way, and AGPL is only really meant to restrict businesses that want to fork it and start a proprietary billing service.

Tell HN: Salesforce is mandating RTO 3 days/wk for all employee

It's a bit of both. The article specifically mentions the CODE specifies minimum sq ft. You could still put a tiny "house" down if that house had met code. The code is the reason why it was unworkable even for a single unit on a plot.

(and in any case, since the topic was code enforcement, article states "North Las Vegas Code enforcement took action" )

Not everything is a big org that spends its time and money chasing compliance for no reason.

It's cynical because you are viewing everything through one personal perspective that is loosely grounded in reality, and choosing to not see the rest of the world, which only serves to validate your cynical mindset.
But please don't mistake this with a general "no company is loyal to its employees". Maybe rare, but not non-existent.
When I see comments like this I have to wonder if I live in a different reality than whoever wrote it. I saw the potential in GPT models to help me with creative tasks, writing, etc. and I have consistently found it to be really quite unimpressive at it. I didn't even find it to be a good conversation partner.

I can't use it to generate anything without thorough review for soundness either, so it doesn't really have potential to automate much of anything as far as I'm concerned.

About the only really good use of it I have seen is "Nothing, Forever", an entertainment/art piece that thrives on the jank of what it produces.

I have no doubt that technology will eventually get there, but I certainly don't see it as there today.
My interest in it isn't with websites. Redpanda supports using wasm (https://redpanda.com/blog/wasm-architecture) so that with Sqlite can make for very fast streams enrichment. Similar for using DuckDB depending on your data.

Targeting arXiv gives us the opportunity to assume certain things about our users.
I actually think I may be mistaken.

I've always believed GDPR was a regulation that crossed borders. Meaning it applies to any EU citizen, no matter where they are located, which is what made this unique (being that it's not my countries laws). But:
