No, and I wouldn't call Datalog a dialect of Prolog either necessarily. It's more like, classic Datalog syntax looks Prolog-ish (similar syntax, and is kind of a subset of Prolog). And you can do Datalog-type stuff in Prolog. But from what I've read of Datomic it's got a totally different syntax, but similar semantics to Datalog .. but not Prolog...

Basically, Prolog can do more than Datalog. Datalog is like, some subset of concepts of Prolog, but specialized for relational data queries, so it can achieve some optimizations and focus on data retrieval only.

Is that confusing enough?

He also has some fun youtube series' where he builds up a region by following a "story" he makes up (or sometimes uses viewer polls). So rather than building a super optimized city, it gets a very natural layout as he pretends to play out rivalries between developers, mayoral or policy changes, etc.

> More detailed and accurate project tracking and projection doesn't deliver quicker shipping. Effectively prioritizing outstanding work does.

This is it. With the advent of broad, powerful tools you can use to automate off your codebase, there's less and less manual rote work that needs tracking, and a greater and greater percentage of creative, hard to estimate, engineer-driven work. And the best way forward is to plan releases with certain features, and flexible timelines, or plan releases with fixed timelines, and flexible features.

This is a pretty basic setup and with k3s one can be very productive at it. In fact, you will very likely hit quite a lot of k8s bottlenecks at Google scale if you throw everything at a single cluster.

I feel like we would actually be better off if people admit they'd rather manage all the complexity by hand all the tine, than spend a few hours reading the docs on k8s objects properties and lifecycles - that's really all there is to it for basic setups like k3s.

That decision was made under duress[1]. Thanks, Dieselgate!

1. The money VW Group was fined for Dieselgate in the US was directed to fund the "Electrify America" charging network. It would have been braindead for VW to give competition a leg-up by not electrify after paying for the infrastructure: the punishment was very well thought-out.

My recollection, which could be faulty, was that people sided with Rushdie but there was a "but he probably shouldn't be so provocative" attached to it. So that tracks with the "entirely without fault" bit, as I remember it.

However, that's based on my memory from the "buzz" around the book and the fatwa when I was a high school senior. I could easily be misremembering or maybe took too strong an impression from a specific op-ed or talk show. Finding copies of coverage as it was happening is a little tricky.

Just curious, how have you handled the noise?
The cause seems to be baked into the underlying assumption that language is just a contextualized "stream of consciousness" that sometimes happens to describe external facts. This sort of is the endpoint of post-truth, relativistic thinking about consciousness. It's the opposite of starting with a Platonic ideal model of X and trying to describe it. It is fundamentally treating the last shadow on the wall as a stand-in for X and then iterating from that.

The result is a reasonable facsimile of paranoid schizophrenia.

In synthetic benchmarks, indeed. In my workloads there's about a 20% lead and yes that might be due to software optimisation etc or something like that but that is a real factor in the outcome. If it saves me 5% of my time that gives me 10 days a year back.

To be clear I'm no loyalist. I went from an AMD 3700X to a 2020 M1 Mac Mini originally because that spanked it. Then to an M1 Pro which was regrettably no real improvement. Then to a 12400 because I had one as a comparison point and it was faster. Now likely a 13700K. Next time, it might be AMD, might be an M3. Who knows?!

I'm mostly just glad I can jump around and pick whatever is on the market rather than being locked into one product or platform now.
Now you're getting it. Why do you think they call it "fuck you money?"
If the catastrophic alternative is actually possible, who's to say the waffling academics aren't the ones to cause it?

I'm being serious here: the AI model the x-risk people are worrying about here because it waffled about causing harm was originally developed by an entity founded by people with the explicit stated purpose of avoiding AI catastrophe. And one of the most popular things for people seeking x-risk funding to do is to write extremely long and detailed explanations of how and why AI is likely to harm humans. If I worried about the risk of LLMs achieving sentience and forming independent goals to destroy humanity based on the stuff they'd read, I'd want them to do less of that, not fund them to do more.
Fortunately the city quickly said there would be no late fees for utilities, but they haven't said much since then - I suspect they thought it would be a much quicker turnaround than it has been.

> It’s amusing that the Government calls what they’re doing with Google a “pen register”. They usually do that to squeeze through the small exception in the Fourth Amendment created by Smith v. Maryland.

Well, they do it most directly because it is a “pen register” as defined in law: …the term “pen register” means a device or process which records or decodes dialing, routing, addressing, or signaling information transmitted by an instrument or facility from which a wire or electronic communication is transmitted, provided, however, that such information shall not include the contents of any communication, but such term does not include any device or process used by a provider or customer of a wire or electronic communication service for billing, or recording as an incident to billing, for communications services provided by such provider or any device or process used by a provider or customer of a wire communication service for cost accounting or other like purposes in the ordinary course of its business;… 18 U.S.C 3127.

You are correct that this statute was created to manage the process related to the exception identified in Smith v. Maryland, but I don’t think that there is a good-faith argument that it is either inconsistent with the scope of the exception or anything except a limitation on law enforcement compared to not having the statute.
I’m noticing a lot of clojure posts recently. Has the language become more popular lately? Is there any reason behind it?
There will be some EVs in that scenario. Enough to tide things over. But in a world with only one option, anything that blocks that one option will destroy the whole car industry.

We're not special [1]. Programming isn't that different from other engineering disciplines. The difference is that, somehow, programmers have developed this anti-intellectual attitude that keeps them from doing the hard work needed to develop the estimation tools that other engineering disciplines take for granted. Step one in developing those tools is tracking.

This is a misunderstood of how text predictors work. It's literally only being a chatbot because they have it autocomplete text that starts with stuff like this:

"here is a conversation between a chatbot and a human:
Human: <text from UI>
Chatbot:"

And then it literally just predicts what would come next in the string.

The guy I was responding to was speculating that the neural network itself was having an inner state in contradiction with it's output. That's not possible any more than "f(x) = 2x" can help but output "10" when I put in "5". It's inner state directly corresponds to it's outer state. When OpenAI censors it, they do so by changing the INPUT to the neural network by adding "here's a conversation between a non-racist chatbot and a human...". Then the neural network, without being changed at all, will predict what it thinks a chatbot that's explicitly non-racist would respond.

At no point was there ever a disconnect between the neural network's inner state and it's output, like the guy I was responding to was perceiving:

>it felt like a broader mirror of liberal racism, where people believe things but can't say them.

Text predictors just predict text. If you predicate that text with "non-racist", then it's going to predict stuff that matches that
> It's not a coincidence that the postmodern thoughts that underpin a lot of this bullshit simply does away with intent

Please make the connection between the disregard of intent and any rigorous definition of "post-moderism". Genuinely I don't see it.

I think the degradation of intent is more at the hands of those who have used it as a shield than anyone else. We've seen entire regions of the world thrown into chaos without consequence. Why, because the responsible parties didn't intend the chaos. At a certain point it gets a little thin.

What's imporant here is scale. Yeah, if you say something that rubs someone the wrong way, they should be able to have a conversation with you about your intentions and weigh those in their judgement. But what if it keeps happening. How long does someone else need to value your intent? 10 times? 100 times? Forever?

And of course when we get to things that affect people's lives on a much more material basis, maybe its good that we stop counting intent for so much. Maybe what we need is for decision makers to get a little more cautios because they will actually feel some consequences if they really screw up a lot of people's lives.
My (albeit limited) understanding is that if SBF's lawyers can convince the jury that he was simply very incompetent that would be better (still a crime, but a less severe one) than if he intentionally defrauded customers. Similar to the difference between murder and manslaughter.

I don't think he's actually trying to bolster his defense though, I think he's largely an idiot and used to getting away with almost anything with few/no consequences.

You always try to read the law and tick the boxes, and I'm here to tell you its a profoundly uninteresting thing to do when not in the company of lawyers. Nobody here cares about the formal requirements or motivation behind bail. We care about how this fraudster came to sit at home playing video games and chatting up witnesses all day, while many many others sit in jail as their cases drawl out, and many indeed die there.
That’s a very “is” argument, but I’m saying we “ought” not worry such as I see in this submission’s comments.

So fastcharger.info states there are >4,000 open CCS locations in the US and Canada (their "global" data is just US+Canada).

http://fastcharger.info/charts

~1,200 of those listed were 150kW+. Another 300 or so are 100kW+. So 1,500 of those being in the same ballpark as average Tesla charging speeds.

The supercharge.info states there are ~1,900 open Tesla locations in North America.

https://supercharge.info/charts

Of that, some percentage of those are 120kW and 72kW. They're not all 250kW chargers. I can't sort by kW on that site's data and I'm not interested enough to skim/export it to find the exact number, but just eyeballing several pages makes me thing probably 5-10% of those as <250kW. Its not like all superchargers on the road are 250kW chargers.

So by your own data sets you've shared, for "open" chargers, there are more CCS locations than Tesla.
Yes, there is a fallacy in believing a machine will be without bias. Unfortunately this will likely lead us to misuse AI and apply it to situations it is not well suited.

Bail is refundable, bond usually means you pay an unrecoverable fraction of the bail for someone to pay the bail for you.
They still add updates to the game once or twice a year, so you usually want some of the new features. That can also lead to the issue of when you finally do decide to update 3 years later or whatever, now it's a 4 hour ordeal to fix instead of 30 minutes. There's no really perfect solution, but it's worth it if you love city builders.
>We're all obsessed with the details of SBF's bail because we're too bored [...]

Nah. There was some news recently of a guy that died of dehydration while in jail [1] for I don't recall how long. During this time he was forced to drink his pee and eat his own feces routinely. He was in jail because he couldn't pay a $100 bail in time. SBF was rescued (that's the correct term) from a Bahamas prison and taken home in a private jet. He now has to wear an ankle monitor, so boo hoo :'( I guess?

"We" are obsessed with this situation because of how blatantly shows the extreme hypocrisy and double standards of the prevailing system of justice. It's a whole different world for the privileged, well-connected classes.

Gorilla Tag has hit 760,000 daily players and $26 million in free-to-play buy-a-hat revenue in December [1], and that's with the many, many issues that come with playing a physically active game while wearing a current-gen VR headset. Anything Apple comes out with now will be too expensive for that market, but there's definitely a market there, and I think it's more limited by the physical weight and display quality of the headsets than by anything else.

I really like the idea of using XR for sports training, like in snowboarding goggles or cycling classes. Almost all road cyclists use some sort of stem mounted computer for GPS and/or fitness tracking, and it would be amazing if someone made a descrete HUD that allowed you access that info without having to look down while you're riding.

Well, you'd need at least 2 users, since you can't reply to yourself. Regardless, fully automated counting is against the rules: you can use client-side tools to count faster, but you're required to have a human in the loop who reacts to the previous comment. Enforcement is mainly just the honor system, with closer inspection (via timing analysis, asking them a question to see if they'll respond, etc.) of users who seem suspicious.
There seem to be a lot of people here who know an underperforming teacher when they see one. :)
There are multiple SAAS startups offering this feature but affordable hardware isn’t there yet going this route. A Varjo Aero is capable, but it’s $2000 for just the headset and it needs a PC that likely runs $4000 and up. For other headsets, text just isn’t readable.

The closest product so far is from NReal, founded by a former Magic Leap engineer.

Sure, school funding has been limited; but the point is that excluding the basic aid school districts (which are mostly smaller districts, afaik, the largest is Newport-Mesa Unified), all of the school districts across the state have been subject to the same funding formulas.

Your comment was that equalizing funding would make society better; my question is, given that funding has been mostly equalized in California, is society better?

In Washington state, funding for basic education is apportioned from state revenues; local districts can raise taxes for enrichment, but there's a cap, and state funds are provided if local taxes don't meet a minimum. I'm not familiar with other states, but there have been several court cases where states were forced to reform systems that relied on local property tax [1]; and I'd imagine many states would have changed their systems after seeing those results, rather than waiting for their own case.

Agreed. It's an announcement that you've determined that some speech has to be crushed, but also preemptively framing it as self-defense. It's like when you first hear about Libertarians having a Non-Aggression Principle at their core, but then you start to hear how they redefine "aggression."

In a very similar way, when Group A starts calling Group B "terrorist," it's really an announcement that Group A is going to be compromising their own professed ethics and processes to destroy Group B. It's an announcement of martial law, not a label that reliably describes any particular behavior by "terrorist" groups.

Speech- and thought-violence rhetoric is just empty rationalization and crybully rhetoric from the powerless, but it's often a prelude to a brutal crackdown when it comes from the powerful.
'Modi's response to Gujarat riots' - what response. He single-handedly orchestrated it and the BBC documentary has implicated him, not to mention the dozens of court cases that initially found him guilty. Do you remember the time when Amit Shah was on the run and hiding from the police due to the involvement and indictment in fake encounter cases.

Are you blind to the rising incidents of violence against minorities that has dramatically increased under Modi or are oblivious about the fact that a mosque was razed by his party only to build a grand temple there?

'Hindus (and Indic peoples) have been persecuted for a good few decades in every neighboring Muslim country.' - Where are the facts? Quotes like these without facts mean nothing.

'The removal of article 370 was a massively popular move' - not for the people who were actually impacted by this. Who still do not have a legitimate election or government. Is Kashmir a part of Democracy? What happened to the state government?

I am surprised that educated people still support Modi. It echos well with the growth at all costs story. Every country that has a majority which considers itself as the victim resorts turns towards Facism and Modi is leading us there really quickly.
>See downthread. The two non-parental guarantors haven't paid anything, but his parents will be zeroed out if he jumps bail.

You lost me -- how does that justify you falsely referring to (some of) the guarantors as "people making insurance payments to cover his bail"?

If you really want to look downthread, you can see where I correctly described the current state of affairs that you're now informing me of:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34810830

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34811063

There's no one "making insurance payments to cover his bail". If you wanted to make a witty remark that has a factual basis, you should have said, "By all means, dunk on the people exposing themselves to a loss if the defendant flees."

>The point of the bail arrangement is to guarantee his appearance, not to extract money or repay his offenses, so this concern with how the government recovers this "asset" seems misplaced.

I don't have a concern with the government recovering this asset. I have a concern with people spreading misinformation and then changing the topic when corrected -- like you did when falsely saying that Kramer and Paepcke were making (something correctly describable as) insurance payments, or referring to the $250 million as "covered".

I also have a concern with bail figures being treated as meaningless (the first link).
And -- in keeping with the flow of this thread -- a complete luxury until the implements (paper/pens/tape/disk/silicon) would become abundant and ubiquitous.
One of the many purposes of pretrial detention is to prevent perjury/collusion/deception in the court room.

That goes for bail-bonded pretrial detention as well.
