Similar arguments apply to Java, which can kick C++s butt if the process is long-lived.

I was going to drop a link to back that up and was shocked to find it in the bible:

I think chatgpt is over hyped like hyperloop.

Feels good it must be good is what media belives
so agree here. i've used Pocketcasts and Spotify since my first smart phone. i have no philosophical opposition to Spotify acquiring exclusive content...whatever, play that game spotify. but end of the day, i want the best possible podcast experience, and you're not giving it to me. happy to keep them separate
You ought to be sorry, if namecalling is your idea of a rebuttal. This is HN, FFS, not Reddit.

I have an EV in my driveway right now that has less technology than most modern ICEVs.
Yeah, no real argument from me on most of that.

I'm mostly hesitant due to my own understanding of my own desire to see naked women when I was a teenager and, to be crude about it, a pretty constant desire to jerk off.

Obviously ideally my kids will stick to their imaginations and consenting partners, that's what I would wish for for them if I could.

But I'm not sure it's a totally realistic expectation, and one of the weird things about being a parent but also a person who was once young is that I want my kids to have the opportunities to come to their own conclusions about what's good and bad for them.

As another example, I don't want my kids to drink or smoke pot before they are of legal age to do so. And ideally, maybe never? But at the same time, occasionally doing that stuff when I was a young man was fun, and formed good memories and social bonds. While it's my role as a parent to set rules that they can't do those things, to issue consequences if I catch them smoking weed or drinking it whatever, I also understand the desire and think tm there's a certain... benefit, I guess, to their attempts to circumvent my rules?

I realize I'm pretty much contradicting myself repeatedly here, and also failing to take a hard beneficial moral stance... but that seems to be part and parcel to the experience of being a parent but simultaneously remembering being a kid.
That was over ten years ago. AFAIK there's never been a pattern of problems.
How do you measure if it’s worth it?
At 750/mo of spend it’s weird to me you’d endure a significant migration because Akamai put their corporate branding on something they bought and when your customer experience hasn’t fundamentally changed.
> If UBI means that I get a check for $500 but at the same time my taxes go up by $500, I would have a hard time thinking that my income went up by $500.

If you get a check for $500 and your taxes go up by $500, that means your total compensation (all sources of taxable income including capital gains) is exactly at the national mean, which is to say that your income is way higher than the median income. As a mean income earner, you earn more than 80% of all Americans.

Are you in the top 20% of income earners? If not, then you come out ahead.

> Think of a world with two people. One rich one poor. Both get checks for $500, but the rich persons taxes go up by $1000 to pay for the program. The net effect is different for the two people.

That is true and it is by design. That's the way functioning progressive tax systems have always worked.

> You still have an effect where people get "punished" with higher taxes as their income goes up.

Yes, that's the point of a progressive tax system.
My favorite Joe Rogan episode was with Jesse Ventura where he tried to inject testosterone into the conversation and Ventura promptly shut him down. I find the podcast full of pseudoscience and the guests are for the most part nobodies or resume fabulists. He is a likable guy and a lot of people do love the MMA stuff so I don't see him going away anytime soon.
It's the stuff that's subsurface (ground water?) that'll last.

Agree, that if it's exposed to air and sunlight it won't last long... too reactive.
Dark? Or perhaps, a lot of things happened on this day at different times?

Arguably, if you go back far enough in time, you can find that almost anything whatsoever will have a bad connotation. You can find bad things/people in every country's history, bad things that happened on every day of the year, bad things that happened on any holiday, etc.

Equivocating our Valentine's Day with Lupercalia is a bit of a stretch. As a tax payer and a US Citizen, I would appreciate it if our state sponsored media tried to present a varied look at history rather than assuming that our modern Valentine's Day's origins is of primarily Western civilization.

A much better story would consider what modern Valentine's Day has turned into, approaching it from multicultural perspectives in order to be true to what it actually _is_, rather than trying to paint a facade of what it is not.
Ooh ooh ooh. I am unable to hold myself back but I'll try. The pipping system in most companies (especially "new age" faangs) is very very similar to the credit rating scheme. You are always captured, nay reduced, to a metric. All context is ignored/forgotten. And even worse it is a lot easier to drop on a metric than to rise back up again because when you drop it is purely objective but when you try to make up it is rarely ever objective. Only thing the faangs have done differently is lasted a bit longer in hiding their shadiness than their wall st counter parts! This unveiling could actually good be great for innovation again?
Didn’t the UK try this recently? What happened with that? Was it struck down? Ineffective?
I bet you'd love it. The North Atlantic in a storm is quite spectacular.

I was on a cruise ship once, and the captain announced they were going to go around a storm rather than through it. I transmitted my disappointment to the captain.

Same! It is still the only ad conversion I’ve ever been: I saw their ad on sourceforge.net, clicked, and bought a VPS. That was probably 20 years ago, and I can’t think of another time I’ve clicked an ad and bought anything.
There is no rule that implies the explicit design dominates the emergent effect.

Evolutionary biology strives to make us logical creatures to fulfill the singular goal of passing on genetic material. Your sentience and your humanity is a side effect of this singular goal.

So what dominates the description of who YOU are? Human or vessel for genetic material?

I'll say that YOU are human and therefore more then just a vessel for ferreting your genetic material into the future... just like how I'll go with the fact that LLMs are more then just statistical word generators.
I wouldn't be surprised if the manager who came in with this edict was specifically brought in to "weed" out those who could "escape" into a comfortable retirement just to extract more labor out of them!
I don't dispute this, but at the same time, the cars from Toyota and Honda during the 1980s were vastly higher quality than their American and European counterparts. This could have contributed to the desire to emulate TPS.
How exactly will this change the situation of porn being a few clicks away regardless of age? Kid searches for "porn" on Google and clicks through the links until they find a non-compliant website. Pornhub is owned by a Canadian company, btw.

The UK abandoned their effort to do this precisely because of how pointless it is.
I have read this book. The hands-on section is what I loved about the book. In our previous org, we had a state machine that implemented consensus using Raft.

PyTorch at the Edge: Deploy 964 TIMM Models on Android with TorchScript
Model deployment is painful. Running a model on a mobile phone?

Forget it .

The frustration is real. I remember spending nights exporting models into ONNX and it still failed me. Deploying models on mobile for edge inference used to be complex.

Not anymore.

In this post, I’m going to show you how you can pick from over 900+ SOTA models on TIMM, train them using best practices with Fastai, and deploy them on Android using Flutter.
In my experiments that doesn’t help. ChatGPT failed to play any valid move given a position, let alone a good one. The point is that language is probably too “linear” to represent what’s going on during a game. Pieces on the board have complex relationships (consider a pinned piece, for example) so autoregressive decoding is simply not enough.
The experience with them is very enterprisey and a few years ago very manual. When CloudFlare went all in on API management, Akamai required changing many things in the web panel. Their official terraform module only started in 2020!

Their preferred onboarding is still extremely "talk to an expert" and "contact sales". I can't find a pricing page for their CDN.

I'm not criticising their tech itself, but as far as brands go, they present as the extremely bland B2B, stay away if you're not a corp. (Also, they do airport adverts...)
I wouldn't blame screen time hysteria when films, TV, comic books and music have all had their turn with moral panics.
Here is the problem with your argument. There are wet markets in every city in asia, and the animals sold in these markets are from all around South East asia. For every single spill over that has occurred prior to SARS2 there were multiple independent outbreaks overtime, this is because the virus is circulating in an animal species, and this happens regardless if one of the viruses has spread to humans. It's hard to imagine how no closely related virus has been found in wet markets in bordering nations that researchers are actively studying.

Another problem is when spill overs do happen, the virus rapidly mutates as it adapts to humans from a virus adapted to another species. It was due to these mutations that allowed researchers within months for both SARS1 and MERS to track down the animal responsible for the spillover(this is known as the proximal origin ). For SARS2 there virus seemed already completely adapted towards humans, and in fact had more affinity towards human receptors than all other candidate animals tested. You'd think with the 80K animals tested and all the environmental samples taken they'd at least find SARS sequences with distinct animal markers.

One last thing when you look at virology research, for years FCS(furin cleavage site) as been a key area of focus due to it's key role in allowing the virus to enter cells. But for some reason when the head of WIV published a report on the SARS2 genome, she neglected to point out the FCS despite it being a major focus of her and many collaborators research for years prior.
Not too surprising given the obscene cash injection they just gotten. It be a huge fumble if they didn't try to scoop up all the talent they could ever need.
Sigh. Don't care at all. Just want it to work. Honestly, this project screwed up when it deprecated all the good plugins, much like Firefox -- though it seems to me Firefox might actually have a good reason for doing so where Thunderbird did not.

Is anyone aware of current work on something like the equivalent of a "Pale moon" fork?

I'm having too much fun with this. Thanks!
The rules of chess are a strict computation. LLMs are translators and synthesizers, not computers. They can translate text reliably into chess commands but the state of the board needs to be maintained by a computer that interfaces with the LLM. An LLM is the wrong model to use for chess just like an LLM is the wrong model to use for image classification.
Whereas in superhero comics, artists often have shadows and bright spots in ways that don't even correlate with light sources.

Because they're "more dramatic." Or that is "the style." Or "artistic freedom." So I'm told.
On one hand, as a heterosexual, white, culturally Christian and conventionally attractive man raised in a middle class neighborhood, I've never been the victim of hateful speech. I cannot fully relate to those who have been. My family, friends, and coworkers are all from similarly conventional backgrounds. I am thus privileged, in a certain way.

On the other hand, I cannot help but think that too many people have become soft these days. I am not old enough to remember a time before the late 90s, nor do I glorify a forgotten "Golden Age". But, when I occasionally watch old movies, documentaries, and TV shows, it is clear that people used to have a much thicker skin. This is not to say that I believe that free speech shouldn't have reasonable constraints. I am not denying the emotional impact that words can have on people, or the potential unhealthiness of excess emotional fortitude. But it is to say that it would be misguided and, in my humble opinion, a disservice to future generations to envelop them in a sanitized cocoon of sterile experiences, where they cannot be uncomfortable. Because the real world is full of colorful characters, and surprises, generally speaking. Like an immune system that grows weaker when it goes too long without exposure to viruses and bacteria, I believe that a person's character can and in a certain measure must be allowed to be steeled and sharpened by the unexpected, the random, and, perhaps, the uncomfortable.

I think we should just move the whole island to a spot off the coast of California.
I would argue it's even less clicks to see violent, disturbing content on YouTube, and we don't require ID checking for that.
Chargepoint has plenty of chargers that fail to store and forward payments.
>which is good

citation needed? why should a teenager not see pictures of a naked person? keep in mind that teenagers in africa are fighting and dying in wars.
chatgpt is incapable of debate. it exudes arrogance and defensiveness when you try to engage in debate. it lacks plasticity of mind, isn’t able to critically evaluate its own position, and is pedantic. boring.
A few coding concepts from scratch
A completely different crowd associates Akamai with anything positive, IME.
Yeah I remember from back in the day. The Linode offering (assuming it works) gives some degree of confidence if a key person or two are out of action, you still can get back online if it's something not app related. And it's almost always the stupid stuff or an Apache reboot to get back online. For the money is worth that initial peace of mind.

In that awkward in-between phase of starting to grow and not quite there yet for another set of back-end hands :)
I tested this at work. 222nm, 265nm, 275nm, 290nm. Petri dishes colonized with human underarm flora were prepared, closed, then incubated for an hour at 80F. tested times were 30 seconds, 60 seconds, 2 minutes, 3 minutes, 5 minutes.

222nm doesn't take even 30 seconds to wipe things out. Every dish was totally clean.

265nm needed about 2 minutes to sterilize.

275nm almost got the job done at 3 minutes and had the 5 minute dish totally clean.

290nm was frankly pathetic. All of the dishes survived with barely-decreasing colony count across increasing times. I estimate it'd take an hour of exposure to clean the dish.
I traced email spam back to Hetzner servers. They refused to shut down the spammers. So I will refuse to do business with those crooks.
How is this significant? I mean you can view a moving car as stationary, and reality is the thing that moves around it, or you can view reality as stationary, but the car moves through it. Or you can make analogies between electricity and water. (Frankly, I like viewing neural nets as a numerical method for doing nonlinear multivariate regression, and ChatGPT is nothing but a resulting equation(s) of such). In the end, regardless of how you choose to perceive it, the result is the same, so what's your point?

It sounds like you just don't like viewing it as simply "a probabilistic word generator", as that takes the magic out of it. And yeah, it's not magic, but it is quite useful.
You don't want to be simply reintroducing it into the atmosphere again that would just increase the amount you need to scrub out of the air because now your cycle just reintroduces all the CO2 you remove back into the air along with the stuff the sailors are breathing out. Submarines as far as I can see have basically always used electric cook tops for that reason, at least since they were designed to stay submerged most of the time. UBoats probably didn't because electric power was so limited they probably just didn't cook hot food while submerged.
It was a more specific point that the court used in their decision: that of compelled speech.

> The Court emphasized that "[b]y compelling individuals to speak a particular message, such notices 'alte[r] the content of [their] speech.'"

The “notices” refer to their hate speech mitigation policies.

Do not mistake christo-fascist right-wing extremists for "western society." These sorts of bills are nowhere near mainstream positions.

Even if they don't get the bill, they can still get something of an anchoring effect and shift the overton window. At the very least, they get to shout on their podcasts and religious radio talk shows about how they're fighting the good fight against us heathens.
Just went through the course syllabi. This is something I have been looking for a long time. Thank you.
It's a grammatical ambiguity.

Your example is nonsense because a comment only ever has one author.
Depends on which people. More developers know Linode. But more business people have seen Akamai adverts at the airports.
Exactly. Salesforce bought Heroku but kept the brand name.
Off topic: I’m looking for a good web clipper to grab just the article and related images from a page like this and save it (as html or a pdf) for me to read later.

I’d like it on iPadOS because that’s where I like to read and write. I tried reader mode, but it lost a lot of the images.

Any suggestions?

Edit: I was able to get a good PDF using the OneNote web clipper on my desktop.
DigitalOcean has been a good companion to Linode. It seems like many of the offerings are either on par or better, though some prices are a little higher.
If you don’t trust them anymore… you aren’t going to stay. Simple as that.
Ok, the implementation wasn’t very fantastic cost wise. However I still think this could be a big area of improvement. How can we reduce energy usage of servers?

There’s a lot of work with ARM lately, I’m curious if that could be used in server workloads like this.
Codeanywhere offers on-prem hosted and air-gapped workspaces supporting devcontainer.json
Is it really well known? I've only ever heard of Linode because they sponsored some Youtube videos. I've never heard it mentioned in a professional setting as a developer.

On the contrary, Akamai is incredibly well known.
This is exactly what I meant by a bland corporate brand. Their tech stack might be great, but their entire look and feel is "old school corporate you need to talk to sales and if you need to ask how much you can't afford it" vs Linode's "developer first, here's all the info you need go ahead and sign up" approach.
It also makes no sense to me, if you want an offering with a different name, just add it to the UI and call the same backend to provision the resources. I bet the majority of customers will never know or care that the other one is the same thing with a different name.
> there is wear-and-tear that can dissuade daily use.

I like things made of materials that lend toward gaining a patina of use, becoming more attractive with wear and imperfection. Wabi-sabi.
It erodes Google's position as the premier research institute.

If an ambitious grad wanted to make their mark, they'd either apply to one of Google's institutions (DeepMind, Brain) or be generated by TPUs (if they were literally a grad[ient]).

Nowadays, not so much. Researchers are realizing that Google is the place to go if you don't want your research to be incorporated into products, except indirectly (Youtube recommendations, google ad placement, etc). Meanwhile OpenAI is reshaping the world.

It's in OpenAI's interest to strike while the iron is hot, as they say. This hype will die down eventually, but displacing 30 million-dollar researchers from Google will have long-term effects that are hard to measure.

Plus, PhDs are the resource that can't be replaced. If someone magically vanished OpenAI's PhDs tomorrow, it would be very hard for them to recover. Whereas if someone vanished every remaining Twitter engineer, Musk could probably pull off a recovery by hiring replacements.
How would you describe what JWST did, in simple language, without the ponderous name of the planet?
People have unreasonable expectations about LLM’s based on media hype without having actually used these tools to do real work before.
The one-liter mini-pc's are incredibly abundant & cheap on tbe used market. They mostly idle.under 10w.

I had some acer chromeboxes that were converted to linux, & those things idled at 5w! had em filled with 32gb ram. amazing little machines. the little i3 and celeron cpus were very weak but still held up well. had almost two years where i used one as my main desktop, literally velcroed to my monitor, but eventually decided the somewhat subpar perf (especially at 4k!) was a bit of a drag.
You're conflating ships in the article. The 1940 quote is referring to the America while the quote about the Pentagon is referring to the the SS United States built in the 1950s.
What’s the sensor IC? This is just a nice paperweight with a screen if it’s like all to other indoor air quality sensors which are way off and improperly calibrated.
RIP Linode. It was the 2nd (after Slicehost) "cloud service" I was introduced to back then in 2009 I believe, when my, back then CTO, insisted that "cloud" is the way to go and some job skills (sysadmin) will eventually fade and turn irrelevant. 3 years later same CTO complained that I made other teams within that startup look bad by using Hetzner and OVH duo instead of Amazon's then still relatively new AWS - bills were telling the story way better than I could!
The chief funders of these businesses have so much money that they often don't care about the outcome of the company as the important factor. Spotify has reshaped the podcast market into a format that the big money funders wanted to happen. It's evolved from the early stage free-for-all where small producers could make it big to a corporate controlled platform in which people have become accustomed to getting their podcast s from something more akin to an app store.
In the US, at least, parents seem much more upset about a child seeing a bare female presenting breast than someone being stabbed/shot/killed in a movie.
I'll literally forget how to get there and login with a name like that.
I don’t understand why are senior developers getting fired.

If over-hiring was the reason for the layoffs. Then shouldn’t the recently hired people be fired?

Mainly in my case because I host my own domain mail with a cheap mail host with a webmail that's not as good as gmail. Also better offline support than any webmail (gmail's is spotty and last time I used it, only worked in Chrome).
Yes they did about 8 years ago.
