I've seen this opinion on HN for years, but still don't _really_ understand it. Our cofounder built what is now a $1B+ SaSS company from some cursory SQL knowledge he gained while interning at a hospital in the early 2010's. The entire business is, in essence, a fancy graphical UI around postgres.

I've now been writing django at work for five years and still have yet to come across a query builder/orm which is as powerful yet simple in addition to being a breeze to on-board new engineers with.

When there are queries that require the use of non-django builtins, it's also relatively easy to use django raw sql or just straight up use the psycopg2 sql.SQL dynamic string composition helpers.

With the complexity of some our chained django QueryMethods, the company would have quite literally been impossible to build without django's query builder, at the very least.
At this point it's irresponsible for browsers not to come with ad blocking preinstalled.
I have an old-ish paypal account with no phone number attached and while they prompt me every time I have not supplied one. There was a period of a month or two a couple of years ago when I couldn't use paypal at all without providing a phone, but I was quite willing to live without paypal. Mysteriously when I tried to log in a few months later it let me.
Ethics is a funny thing.

Why do the ethical concerns of gene editing matter, ethically, when there are billions of people starving?

Instead of spending time and money on ethics of a few, why not spend that time and money on helping others who actually would love to have the opportunity to make an ethical choice by surviving?

I mean seriously, bioethics is just a way for the upper-middle classes to feel better about their choices. But in real life the rich don't really care about that sort of shit; ethics really is a way for the rich to deny the almost rich the same privileges and opportunities.
Maybe in the sense that you do not have to give any money to the agency that issues the ID.

Not free if you have to take a day of unpaid leave from work to go to that agency, or travel a great distance to get to their nearest office, or have to pay to get supporting documents (e.g., a certified copy of your birth certificate) to get the ID.
lol it recommended their api and gave python code for using it

but the real api doesnt give results that the user asked ChatGPT for

that is amusingly alarming

Yeah, against the Uyghur population in Xinjiang: https://apnews.com/article/ap-top-news-international-news-we...

I’m not sure if there are any cases against Han Chinese people, probably the one child policy was effective enough.
> In the case of a university, I think it's pretty clear that Stanford is a de-facto government over the students attending there. Sure, attendance is technically voluntary and you can leave at any time, but that's also true of normal governments, especially state and local governments. The key thing is that being forced to leave your home and community to avoid a state government violating your rights would really suck, so that gives them a significant position of power over you, and we have a constitution to ensure they don't abuse it.

Not to mention that moving to another state requires... a U-Haul and an apartment lease. Becoming a "citizen" of Stanford takes a hell of a lot more work, and if you annoy somebody enough that he and a dozen friends make false anonymous reports to get you kicked out, well, that was your chance, hope you like CSU Chico.

edit: actually I googled Chico and it looks pretty nice, I was just trying to think of a "remote"/unfashionable state school, no offense meant to Chico grads
After using Ubuntu for a decade, I switched to Debian with Bullseye and I couldn't be happier. Or can I? Why use PopOS, and does it do KDE?
Yes, if a hobbyist absolutely wants to buy a Lispworks license, that should be possible for many people. But that isn't the only criterium. The question is: is anyone as happy to pay the price compared to spend the money on other things, like buying a camera or lens. There is some perception of value involved. For example I do spend a lot of money on my camera equipment and some people are suprised by it, though I spend way less on my car than they do. But on the other side, many people can't spend so much on any hobby or car.

On the other side there is SBCL. This is really a great Lisp implementation, in some ways clearly superior even, this limits the amount what at least I am willing to pay for some fancyness of the commercial edition. As far as I can see, I struggle to preceive a critical advantage for Lispworks. And the price is way above the impulse by territory.
have you been able to contact OpenAI about this? It sounds like they're actively adding load to your CS ops with this
Show HN: Sveltos – collect tech-support from managed Kubernetes clusters
Tech-support:
Sveltos can now be instructed to collect tech-support from managed clusters. Both logs and any #kubernetes resources can be collected. A new #crd is introduced which allows both #platform and #tenant admins to instruct Sveltos on what to collect, when and from which #kubernets clusters.
This new feature is fully integrated with Sveltos multi-tenancy solution. Sveltos will make sure tenant admin can collect only what it has been authorized to by platform admin.
More on tech-support https://lnkd.in/gHF7xUyb

Notifications:
Sveltos is used to deploy and manage resources in Kubernetes clusters. Sveltos will continuously monitor the status of Kubernetes add-on deployments. New nice feature of Sveltos is that it can now be configured to send notifications when that changes.
Currently supported notification types are:
1) #kubernetes events (reason=ClusterHealthCheck);
2) #slack message;
3) #webex message.
> I suspect the answer would be surprising.

Seems like a paradox.
Couldn't something pretty close to that be done with eye movement and blinking?
yeah this one is, but I think that's on account of the tiny footprint of the 701. A larger machine would be easier to modernise with framework bits
As a 9 year old (admittedly not in the US), when there was a day without school but my parents still had to work, I was allowed to stay home on my own and ride my bicycle to a town 5km away to buy lunch. My 7 year old brother wasn't allowed to stay home, but came on similar trips with me.

The adequate childcare for a responsible 9 year old might be "tell them to call 911 if there's a serious emergency, or text you if anything comes up".
Rivets come loose too; but they're a lot harder to retighten.

Because ChatGPT is so new, we are in this weird period where people haven't learned that is just as incorrect as the rest of us.

I am hoping that in a year from now people will be more skeptical of what they hear from conversational AI. But perhaps that is optimistic of me.
In my experience with doing data downloads from companies, they often don't contain everything, even though they're legally required to. I wouldn't be surprised if eBay doesn't include specific notes about this person's account suspension in their data dump (and I'm not sure that such information is even necessarily required to be included).
The US is a low trust society because we're told not to trust people through highly negative news stories. The result is the US being primed to think there are child murderers and rapists under every bush, etc, etc. Ancedent to this unintentional effect was the incentivised "if it bleeds it reads" motivation for promotion of the highly negative.

Sometimes there is a service you can sign up for with a website to receive and send SMS from. Sometimes the phone company calls you and reads the text to you. Sometimes the phone company sends an email to the email account on file (this sometimes happens for wireless text messages too, if undeliverable by other means…)
Serious Eats has a good post on it [1].

Basically, remove the beeswax layer, then rub a layer of oil on the pan and heat it until it fully smokes off. You can do it on a burner or in the oven at 450F. You'll do that a maybe 3-5 times on a new pan, up to you. They tell you not to do carbon steel in the oven because of the material of the handle, but I've done it before and it worked out fine. I generally just use the stove top because it's easier.

You clean the pan with soap and water as you would any other pan, and then towel dry since you don't want rust forming on the metal. You'll need to re-season it every so often depending on how much use the pan gets, but that's usually only every couple years.

Worse: Gender equilibrium in universities was reached in 1980, both in USA, France and probably other countries. Every effort we’ve made since then for women in a particular field, should have been met with an equal effort for men in another field.
> I'm not sure why anyone would use checks in an emergency though, I'm surprised BB&B even still accepts checks.

I was taught to carry one for emergencies. If your credit card gets frozen/lost/stolen/hits its limit, and you don't have enough cash for what you need, carrying a check seems like a good backup plan. Or it did until I've now learned it's essentially useless.
I don’t think anyone realized the full extent of the consequences until very recently. Even now, we’re still learning just how pervasive the mental health consequences of social media have been. See the recently released CDC data on teen mental health.
Right. Back when Keller and Dobberpuhl were at P.A. Semi, I was waiting for them to IPO so I could invest... very low power 64-bit dual-core PPC chips from a few of the key Alpha people seemed just what Apple needed to solve their problems with IBM not being able to get the G5 power consumption down low enough for laptops.

I was disappointed when Apple switched to x86 instead, and a few years later, Apple acquired P.A. Semi, which I believe became the bulk of Apple's mobile processor team.

If rumor is to be believed, it really is too bad that Ken Olsen refused to drop margins and increase volume on the Alpha in order to create a scaled down version for Apple back when Apple was looking to leave the m68k architecture.
I think we are in basic agreement.

> If you're talking about a complaint against a faculty member or the school itself, or the government, anonymity should be allowed.

I would just nuance this by saying yes, but so long as such anonymous complaints are only the beginning of the investigation, rather than the end.
Thanks. Someone coming to this project page cold is not going to find that third-level sub-page unless they're motivated; the table of contents doesn't reveal that that's where they'll find a rationale. Hope this helps.
Actually after reading the bill you linked (apologies I was looking at the other states bills) you left out the main point that does actually reduce my "apocalyptic fears"

In Australia they technically need a direct debit authority, but PayPal is above the law in Australia so our dispute process is through our local bank. It works, but it's very tedious and the bank will try to push you towards the PayPal dispute process. It's much better not to link it to a bank account at all, use a credit card because that way it's two US corps fighting with each other when there's a problem.
Oh, boy, can they ever! And the fees can be hefty. Even with a credit union back in the early 2000s, we were talking $10 _per day_, I don't expect it has gotten any cheaper.

It's not very different from piping curl output to bash.

Communist? No, just the plain old Russian imperialist and chauvinist propaganda like it always has been. Soviet Union was just a new skin for the same old. The collapse of it gave Russians an unique change to raise above it but it didn't happen. Russians got really unlucky with Putin. He gave nothing and took everything.

You likely want to disagree but it is true - Putin came to power just after Yeltsin era hard and difficult reforms were done and oil prices, that were for a decade record low, skyrocketed. And Russian economy is nothing more than oil, and then some more oil and gas.
It's also way easier to just tell my mom (for example) to use Brave, rather than explaining extensions, why "uBlock Origin" vs "uBlock", etc.

Huh, why is that fine for building access? Someone can enter your house by just having a copy of your fingerprints or face data?
Yes, also because the stuff has free implementations. For something to beat free it will have to be significantly better to put up with the inevitable annoyances until it matures.
The founders had a good bit of luck, but then hired a lot of super smart people fresh out of college.

The cosmo monorepo currently vendors Python 3.6, since cosmo originally didn't have threads support and that was the last version before threads became mandatory. I'm pretty happy with the old version since I've been using Django since the 2000's. I put a lot of work into enhancing monorepo cosmo python with things like a better REPL that works across platforms. It may not be supported by the Python team, but it's supported by me. However the future will probably be building Python w/ Cosmo outside the monorepo. See the other comments for details on how to use APE + Python 3.11 for a modern experience.
It’s being enforced unevenly is the issue. Some floors are packed and some are mostly empty.
what are they going to do? add custom logic? where does it stop?

the malady is that LLMs cannot do operational adhoc changes such as these kinds of errors at scale
You want to read about the Kelly criterion for that. Russ O'Connor has a good article explaining why the lottery is a bad deal on that basis: http://r6.ca/blog/20090522T015739Z.html
Not quite as alarming as these people most likely trying to stalk someone without their permission.
They are artificially necessary in some cases.

I have a personal .com and a gTLD based domain. THis is mostly to retain control of mailflow (I use workspace but can always move it, and have in the past)

The number of services/online forms that wont accept a .email domain is still very high.

I would imagine at a business level this would be equally difficult, even if its just for B2B type transactions/relationships.
Flathub could become the killer "app" for the Linux desktop. No need to juggle dependencies and third party repos. The software you need in an instant.
If it was 4 bunks (two upper, two lower) then it was a "kupe" (2nd class). If it had 2 bunks (lower only), then it's SV (1st class). Though these days they may have other combinations.
This marks the new age of "AI Optimization" where companies will strive to get their business featured into answers in ChatGPT.

The OP's example is Unwanted demand, but it clearly shows that ChatGPT can funnel potential customers towards a product or service.

Here are a few things I do to combat nasty websites:

- blacklists entire domains using wildcards (using an "unbound" DNS resolver and forcing all traffic to my DNS resolver, preventing my browser to use DoH -- I can still then use DoH if I want, from unbound)

- reject or drop a huge number of known bad actors, regularly updated: they go into gigantic "ip sets" firewall rules

- (I came up with this one): use a little firewall rule that prevents any IDN from resolving. That's a one line UDP rule and it stops cold dead any IDN homograph attack. Basically searching any UDP packet for the "xn--" string.

I do not care about what this breaks. The Web still works totally fine for me, including Google's G Suite (yeah, I know).

EDIT: just to be clear seen the comments for I realize I wasn't very precise... I'm not saying all IDN domains are bad! What I'm saying is that in my day to day Web surfing, 99.99% of the websites I'm using do not use IDN and so, in my case, blocking IDN, up until today, is totally fine as it not only doesn't prevent me from surfing the Web (I haven't seen a single site I need breaking) but it also protects me from IDN homograph attacks. Your mileage may vary and you live in a country where it's normal to go on website with internationalized domain names, then obviously you cannot simply drop all UDP packets attempting to resolve IDNs.

I'm curious: why not? It seems like a lot of people would be interested in this if you could figure out how to provide it.
this seems like a game-changing opportunity actually. I'd be down to buy the domain
Any company worth their salt doesn't pay for that, though. Heck, even stuffy enterprises like banks, who usually pay for everything, frequently don't do that.

The main JDK distros are big and stable enough to make this strategy viable in an enterprise environment.
Ooops, looks like our cost is .0095/GB, my mistake. No region.
When an anonymous accusation has the potential to be career ending for the accused, the simplistic assessment of relative power between parties ceases to be correct. This is why the constitution (which doesn't apply here but was very thoughtfully designed) requires that defendants be given the right to face their accusers.

Valid accusations and false accusations happen in all forms of law. There are commonly power or status differentials in the context of accusations. The constitution and 200+ years of case law have left our legal system far from perfect but far better than the ad hoc, administrator-defined, corporate insurance rate protecting pretend legal systems put in place by universities and the like.

The right to face your accuser is a critical right that exists to facilitate legal systems arriving at the truly best right answer.
I remember that! We had no such luck getting portapotties in the NYC office.
Apparently in the EU PayPal is registered as a Luxembourg bank:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PayPal#Offices

But, I've heard several times they have most of the law firms in Luxembourg on retainer. So, it's extra difficult taking them to court (with representation), due to "conflict of interest" with this majority of Luxembourg law firms.

There are many further examples of their EU legal approach here on HN, if that helps. eg:

Stuff does happen though.

- Facebook enters the geolocation game (dowalla/foursquare/instagram)

- Google releases reviews to maps (yelp & co)

- Amazon starts it's own airline (Fedex)

- Microsoft adds ChatGPT to search (Kagi, Duckduckgo, etc..)

Sometimes it's hard to recover your startup when a big player does something to fill the void you were targeting.
The code can still involve humans, if that is the escrow system you'd like to use. It just doesn't have to involve a centralized entity. For example, I can imagine an escrow system where you can have third party arbitration, by anyone who wants to participate in the system. Incentivized by the two parties involved.

People say that crypto is just re-inventing what already exists and a lot of it is doing that... I'm ok with that. What exists is not always the best solution.
That's quite the predicament. I hope OpenAI will listen, to this and to anyone else in a similar situation. I'm reminded of the cases of ChatGPT recommends random people's personal phone numbers for various services.

But yeah, don't trust ChatGPT for anything. Just earlier today I tried my darnedest to convince it that 2 pounds of feathers doesn't weigh the same as 1 pound of bricks, and it just would not listen, presumably because it just regurgitated stuff related to the common "1 pound of feathers and 1 pound of bricks" question.

By the way, the last paragraph has some typos:

I've been going through the xv6 book and source code over the past week, and it has been a delight. It's ready to compile, the source code is very easy to read and very small with the biggest files weighing in at 500 lines. The book is written really well. Just delighted to be learning this material in such a nice way.
Does anyone have any adblockers they recommend that still show "safe" ads (e.g. non-malware) by default, without having to whitelist every site? I'd be open to the security benefits of an adblocker if I could still passively support all the sites I visit.

Ask HN: What are your chill, at-home, non-digital hobbies?
I often find myself simultaneously bored and feeling I don't have time for things.

I realised that my life would be better with some nice relaxing occupation to look forward to for when I'm home alone in the evening. These days I just spend a lot of time watching youtube.

What I'm looking for could be sufficiently mindless to be possible while listening to music or to a podcast, or stimulating enough. It should not involve looking into a screen.

At the moment, I read books (but this requires too much concentration and sometimes I'm too tired); I learn Swahili (but this is only a lesson a week and a couple of readings here and there); and I love cooking and experimenting in the kitchen (this is a great example of what I'm looking for, but I can't do that every day for hours).

I thought about learning to sketch but it's something that kind of makes me competitive or self-conscious, so, I will eventually do it but I'd also like something even simpler.

What are yours?
