The old school summarized answers that Bing and Google presented had similar issues. The only difference with those is that they had links you could click to see the genesis of the incorrect answer.

People should realize that information on the internet may or may not be correct in general. Your mileage may vary and you need to decide based on the risk profile associated with the task. If I need to get the start on a poem about two kids at the park, ChatGPT may fit the profile. If I need to know details about how to perform some encryption used for a highly confidential data, then I may go to an authority paper on the topic, skipping things like Wikipedia.

Don't forget how many recalls are "Next time you replace this part, it will be replaced with a new version that doesn't have the defect" or how many recalls are "A tech will look at the part and then do nothing because your part is fine" or "A tech will weld the part that is currently on your truck" or "Be aware this part may fail ahead of schedule and if it does it will suck, but you don't technically have to replace it right now so we don't have to cover the cost"

My current employer is a state agency. Yes there is a library. Most of the books in the library are legal books. All of the programming books are currently in our workgroup's offices. I've brought a few programming books from home, they're in my office.
Yemen isn't even a country anymore, so people there can do whatever the hell the want if they can avoid getting shot.
In such case the solution is to have hardware kill switches, like on my Librem 5.
Projects can still effectively be denied/delayed from discretionary environmental review. State is working on pre-empting or expediting that as well for these affordable housing projects.
> You get to the airport, there's no ticket and no seat

We issue instantly issue tickets / pay for the booking so and for a lot of the major airlines we're plugged directly into their reservation system so this should be an extremely rare occurrence, if an occurrence at all. Nobody should ever miss a honeymoon because of that imo.

Customers won't be able to call Duffel but can get in touch with the merchant that sold them the flight.
Years ago on an arch system I would boot directly from UEFI to the kernel (using a feature known as EFISTUB[1]) Ever since then I have not understood why most distros don't switch to this setup. It would seem like removing an entire bootloader from the boot sequence would significantly improve boot times, which was my experience with that setup at the time.

Does anyone know why anyone would choose systemd-boot over something like efistub?

Absolutely need more data, but if a public company makes untruthful claims about the past they are in big trouble. They are mostly free to make claims about the future without much consequence.

This is why startups are allowed to project massive sales next year but Elizabeth Holmes is headed to jail.

If it turns out that FSD has had a fatal crash and Tesla lied about it Musk is headed to jail too.
"AI remembering things after being reset" makes up a big part of the plot of Westworld.
Black box testing in typical software is, however, less superficial, because the tester can make inferences and predictions about what inputs will affect the results. When you're testing a drawing program, for example, you may not know how the rectangle tool actually works internally, but you can make some pretty educated guesses about what types of inputs and program state affect its behavior. If the whole thing is controlled by a neural network with a staggering amount of internal state, the connections you can draw are much, much more tenuous, and consequently the confidence in your test methodology is significantly harder to come by.
Pretty low. Successfully crafting it, getting it off the ground, and having it go as far as the ocean without popping is a pretty good accomplishment providing value disproportionate to cost.

More environmental damage was likely done fabricating the plastics in the balloon than crashing it into the sea.
Radar can see cm scale objects in space. This is easy stuff.
Fake news was very bad, but it doesn't seem to matter anymore.

Having a 'truth' benchmark seems an almost impossible task given the size of the problem space, but it is quite troubling to have statements like "most is useful info", "some info is purely hallucinated", etc, without having any ideas about the numbers, not any confidence indicator (well, 'trust me bro' seems to have been a huge part of the training data). Does anyone have any idea of how true the results might be given certain types of queries?

In my own experience with ChatGPT, I don't think I'm at even 50% of decent answers for my queries. And worse, it's absolutely inconsistent, you might get totally opposite answer one time to the next.
Yeah, it's pretty difficult to call call cutting edge research that requires a math degree a "grift". If that's a grift, what isn't a grift? I feel like this word has lost all meaning to the extent that it had any to begin with.
I don’t believe there’s a way to run it on AppleTV, though I would love to be wrong.

You get change by regulating what the industry can collect in the first place. Otherwise all you have is an ever replacing stream of low paid workers.
But if you ran the company with the confidential information would you trust that? You would have no way of knowing if they actually honor those requests.
It is so funny that it is literally as simple as: Air Force found one Chinrese balloon and now they are shooting down every similar one. I'm imagining some red-faced colonel barking this order, embarrassed by being caught on their ass about the first balloon.

I would be absolutely SHOCKED if this represented anything more than simple incompetence.

This will be followed shortly by new regulations emulating what other countries do about their air space.

This whole balloon fiasco is a straightforward case of CYA. Which is why we have no details, and everyone thinks they are UFOs now. Priceless.
Uuuuugh the last thing I want is notifications becoming like email, where it's so spammy and impossible to deal with that automated tools have to start categorizing spam and affecting message visibility, and then important messages start to get lost in the shuffle.

The twitter web app is such a mess. Only slightly better than "new" Reddit, which is probably one of the single worst offenders in the world of bad SPAs.
"zero container waste" would more clearly define their mission. They should not mislead consumers by diluting the term "zero waste".

If another business offers similar services, but using exclusively zero emission vehicles (at a higher cost?), then environmentally conscious consumers will not have correct information to make their purchasing decisions.
The amount of Tesla apologism in HN is nasueasting. Per the NHTSA, a safety recall is issued if either the manufacturer or the NHTSA determines that a vehicle or its equipment pose a safety risk or do not meet motor vehicle safety standards. On its face, Tesla's situation clearly calls out for classification as a recall.
Nagging emails and 99.9% of ads suck but there needs to be avenues for new companies and products to be discovered. This site is full of marketing, but it is largely balanced out by user power (voting and ability to discuss and criticize).
I've missed trains that left a station ahead of schedule by a minute or two in my regional metro system. I've also had busses go past a bus stop earlier than the posted time.
I don't have evidence yet that ours is doing that but I'm sceptical even of the barrels.
>Why I wonder the UK and not other Western countries?

probably because the gov't hates competition.
The argument has nothing to do with efficiency, except insofar as human inefficiency makes abuse of power more likely. The problem is there isn't fundamentally a balance of power, having unlinked databases doesn't allow the "good" databases to shield you from the "bad" databases, it just increases the potential for errors to arise. I'll amend my previous closing argument, if you wouldn't trust someone with a knife, why would you trust them with a whole cutlery set? We're not trying to make the system more efficient, we are trying to eliminate potential failure points, which every human involved is. If it is more efficient, that's just gravy on top.

If you are really concerned with who is in a position of power, consider the difference between a small team of maybe a dozen people working behind closed doors versus software which could be made as public as the laws it is meant to uphold and evaluated by anyone on earth. Any issue, be it from malice or incompetence, would be plain as day.

And if you don't like black box neural networks, I have some terrible news about the human brain.

There is no technical reason why the creators of an AI should be any less accountable for a flaw in their product than the producers of any other technology. This wouldn't generally be the programmers themselves, but it would be the companies employing those programmers. If a car company for example becomes aware of a serious flaw in their product and they don't take appropriate steps to fix it, they're liable. Likewise for most things. The creators of these systems don't need to volunteer to be responsible for how they perform, they are compelled. There have been countless tools added to law enforcement's utility belt over the centuries like radar guns and dna matching, and every legal system in the world has dealt with evaluating their efficacy and potential for bias. There is nothing about an AI that makes it incompatible with these existing safeguards.
Sounds like another race to the bottom to me, as with email spam and SEO spam.
They are on the side of hosts on many other things. Removing reviews, not caring when the place booked is completely off in comparison to the description. It's by design they want your money and keeping many dishonest hosts on the site makes more money (at least short term).
Sometimes it's just the way they do it, that counts.
As any Tesla supporter will tell you, Autopilot != FSD.

(Is Autopilot still limited to divided, limited access highways? Those are significantly safer than other roadways.)
For a good portion of the airbnb market thats exactly what the guests want. They go, "I have 12 boys in new orleans for mardi gras, we are partying every day for a week straight, lets rent what is basically a frat house and make it cheap by sleeping 4 in a bedroom, and spend the savings on partying since the room is just where we pregame and pass out."

Sure, you can do this stuff in a hotel too, but sometimes the airbnb has cool stuff like a patio or a deck versus your bog standard hotel layout with too much bed and not enough floorspace for partying, not to mention a smoke detector. The lack of any staff oversight also makes it easy to party without fearing noise complaints or having staff see just how many people are staying in the unit. I'd wager airbnb has completely changed how big partying holidays like spring break works in a lot of cities for this reason.
Zero Grocery in the Bay, which had the same business model, folded last year. There's probably a lot to learn from them. https://sf.eater.com/2022/3/28/23000037/zero-grovery-deliver...

Some motherboard makers (Gigabyte, I think?) would include a socket for the BIOS EEPROM chip, even in relatively mid-range motherboards. I thought that was really cool, but a bit strange. It makes sense on high-end overclocking motherboards where some customers might actually use it and where there's not much of a cost constraint. But it seemed a bit extravagant to spend ~$0.30 on something that almost nobody would ever use. Maybe their service department used it to fix some RMA'd motherboards more quickly.

It looks to have gone out of fashion, I can't find any modern motherboards that have it but I didn't look that hard. Probably because BIOS flashback has gotten more common and because the tall socket would interfere with all the SSD heatsinks they have now.
i don't protest, i just don't do the tasks they ask me to. i don't know my rating but I've never had problems booking Airbnb's. if they want me to clean they can't charge a cleaning fee.
Yes. It is a somewhat-less-bad form of even more advertising. If you think paying to avoid some advertising is reasonable, why is paying more to avoid more advertising unreasonable?
It thinks that we're bad users :(
I had a similar situation with two identical monitors except for some reason one of them was a slightly newer revision (same model!) and had an EDID that made it look as an 10bpc panel instead of 8bpc like the older revision. Setting both to 8bpc reduced the idle power consumption by 4x. If you are on windows, you may need some additional tool to be able to change the bpc (the AMD control panel applet works too).
> AI is being pushed by AI bros and their VC funders

There is a large class of AI researchers who have been working on this problem for decades (and I am one of them). What you see right now is the tip of the iceberg. Compared to that, crypto was invented by an anonymous dude in some random forum. Remember that what you see in the surface is not all there is, and thinking so is a very shallow interpretation of things.
Thinking as a fellow notification disabler, and having no data, just intuition:
People want their attention to be tapped. I am not exactly sure why that is (although I am sure that it can't be good) but notifications are a tap on peoples attention.

Building certain apps without notifications seems like it would simply not be acceptable to must users. Most phone apps still vibrate or ring – that's basically a notification. I would go as far as saying its uniquely distracting notification is the primary feature of the phone app but, at the very least, a phone without one would be something very different. And since messengers basically compete with phone apps now, for most people that would probably not work.
Some context:

> In 1969, Heinz von Foerster, Humberto Maturana, Herbert Brün, and their students at the University of Illinois, created The Whole University Catalog, a collaborative publication expressing the spirit of the times. In this authentic zine, the countercultural revolution and the Biological Computer Laboratory find naked expression. Now, almost two decades after this print publication was scattered to the turbulent winds of history, a PDF of the Whole University Catalog is available online.

The number of those is tiny compared to the number of mass shootings in America.
The historical raison d'etre for the Federal Reserve act was principally point 3. Points 1 and 2 have become the central focus or modern Fed "mandate" and generally thought to be beneficent outcomes of a successful #3, besides. If the Fed inflicts too painful of a recession it fails at points 1 and 2, as well.

Pop!OS uses it on anything with a UEFI secure boot setup which was something of a surprise to me since I didn't notice anything except that I don't see the GRUB menu at boot time, and to dual boot I have to drop to the bios or use the Windows 11 restart bollocks to get back to Pop!OS

Although there is a reddit comment that I think was quite apropos: LILO got too complex so we got GRUB, now GRUB is a beast and we have systemd-boot. Not sure what other advantages it might have over GRUB other than perhaps it plays nicer with Windows/UEFI. I still prefer GRUB on my other machines where I'm still allowed to use it.
Sure, you are in control of your Tesla but you are obviously not in control of other Teslas. Someone else who isn't as diligent as you or who doesn't care about it's limitations will happily crash head-on into you, blissfully unaware of their own ignorance.
I spend most of my days picking up trash from the ocean (<1 mile away from me). Suffice to say, our perceptions of the difficulty and nobility of throwing trash into it are vastly different.

US passenger rail is unsafe. We have no way near the level of sophistication of European passenger rail transport.

We have a significantly higher number of derailments. Even the worst European rail is more safe than US rail.

I know this is a popular belief on HN. But I assume you mean part of marketing that is paid advertising?

Because you know, HN is a marketing site for companies in Y Combinator and Y Combinator itself.

There's not a single business in the history of mankind that have made money without marketing. Because they wouldn't be allowed to show or tell anyone they existed.
An earlier Chronicle article anticipates some ways projects will be blocked. It sounds like this isn't the unambiguous green light that some articles suggest.

> Environmental review is one such way. Normally, cities perform one environmental review for a citywide or neighborhood-wide zoning plan. So long as project applications comply with those plans, they can piggyback on the parent environmental report. But since builder’s remedy applications often disregard local zoning, cities can ask developers to complete a full environmental impact report for a project. Once that’s done, cities can then claim that any impact — noise, shadows, pollution — in the report was insufficiently studied and demand costly redos. Community groups can also take builders to court.

> Cities can further pile on costs for builder’s remedy projects by requiring infrastructure upgrades like new sewer connections. Local governments can also potentially exact revenge by making other applications from developers more unpleasant — for instance, by subjecting them to additional scrutiny or longer processing times. This threat will likely dissuade many developers from pursuing a builder’s remedy project.

The last portion, where local governments might intentionally punish developers, may be why there's not a bunch of large experienced developers rushing to submit plans.

True enough for the extremely risk-averse FAA.

Tape over all of the multiply-redundant static ports on the aircraft. We don't treat tape as a critical threat to aircraft.

The 737-MAX has three pitot tubes and six static ports, deliberately placed on both sides of the aircraft. (https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Boeing-737-NG-and-MAX-pr...)

I took a pay cut to leave the startup world, looking for a job with more or less the performance characteristics you list above. I found a non-profit doing work I thought was worthwhile. I'm proud of what I do, and it's much easier to explain the value to people compared to a nebulous SaaS product. But because they are not primarily a product company, they have not ever had anything like a death march or long period of crunch time, which I really love. Timelines are quarters years rather than weeks. One downside is the compensation is less, but it's still plenty for me. Another downside is that, not being primarily a product company, it can be frustrating dealing with people who don't have a background in the language and processes around making what products we do have.
To me "recall" clearly implies that I have to drive it to the dealership and let them fix or install something. "Mandatory software update" might be a better term.

> Why 6 bit codes for punch cards in 1928?

I'm guessing it was the smallest practical size to encode alphanumeric data, and making it bigger than it needed to be would have added mechanical complexity and expense.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six-bit_character_code: "Six bits can only encode 64 distinct characters, so these codes generally include only the upper-case letters, the numerals, some punctuation characters, and sometimes control characters."

There was apparently a 5-bit code in use since the 1870s, but that was only enough for alphas: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baudot_code
My advice is for you to go talk to a professional therapist.
The industry needs to come up with a new related term like "Software Recall"

Recalling the hardware is a drastically more difficult request to impose on customers and financially/logistically for the car maker.

That's a disporportate response just to highlight importance of an OTA update.
>Oh. So you don't like the data, because it disagrees with you. So you are trying to pretend I'm ignoring data, even though I'm linking to summary statistics which by their nature summarize the statistics rather than ignoring the statistics.

Oh the data is great. I like the data. I'd take the data out to dinner. It's completely besides my point, and you continuing to be obtuse and rephrasing things this way, is not only a strawman, but it's rude.

> Your views probably do have evidence that supports them. I want to see the evidence you are using, because I think that is important.

Not every policy decision is driven by data. Some are driven by reasoning and sensibility, as well as deference to previous practices. So your whole data-driven shtick is just that... a shtick.
