No, I'm not talking about subjective experience at all.

ALL that happened was that I made a generalization, and other people wanted to contest it because, well, they could. It's not more complicated than that.

It's basically if I said most action movies have a car chase or gun fight, and someone wanted to die on the hill claiming that that generalization is inaccurate and not all action movies have to have a gun fight or car chase.

I agree though that the discrimination of aboriginals is politicized though, and it shouldn't be.
Oh man this was great. And also hard to hear. This is a wonderfully ambitious project & capable of yielding really interesting results. But alas, Intel is no longer investing in the underlying Tofino network switch chip (which they inherited/extended from Barefoot), which is the primary/only P4 switch-chip offering.

I'd say... there's a non-zero chance this work alone could revive it, show the technologies worth.

There's a ton of value to having an understandable clear networking stack that you can see & work on, and the podcast is totally correct that vendors almost never offer clarity or possibility. Netops crosses fingers, flips a switch, & sees what happens. By contrast, this is a refreshing take on being responsible for your shit, in a way little else does.

But it's still unclear that embedding much more complex computing in your network switch has real value. Having a far more configurable P4 capability under the belt isn't a little step towards ownership, it's a huge step towards software-defining the network pipelines.

This seems unrelated, but I somewhat look at systems fabrics - smaller scale & faster connections - & see a lot of complexity about figuring what to send where. The idea of embedding more intelligence in the connective fabric has huge alure. But it's unclear who or when someone will truly leverage more flexible switching/interconnect to great effect.
Nim compiles to C, C++, Objective-C, and Javascript.

Technically it'd probably be possible to compile down to Rust. It's gc is essentially wrapping in Rc's. Though not sure it'd bring much vs linking to Nim's C output.
One reason (at least in the past) to use upper ports for web servers at least is when you want to run a server, don't have root permission to use 80, so you pick 8000, 8080, 8088, etc. And you think maybe you're clever and use 8089...

1) I've seen the "arguments over definitions don't add to HN" morale stated here before and decided to try it out when it seemed pertinent.

2) I wasn't too on board with giraffe_lady either, and yours was just the figurative last straw. Also if I'm going to try to interject in what I think is a non-productive back and forth I figured I'd do so at the end of the chain, not with multiple comments throughout the chain.
Not the first time, won't be the last. Google is an egocentric company with a nihilistic and destructive indifference towards its customers. Fortunately people are learning to avoid Google products, as seen with Stadia's demise. Here are some other instances of Google's negligence:

Farming is heavily subsidized worldwide. If the US stopped subsidizing farming unilaterally, it would decimate (for the pedants yes I know decimate means decline by 10%) US farming.

Are you saying that we should depend on other countries for food? You think our chip dependency leaves us vulnerable…
Agree on that! Whisper large has big needs. But I didn't find the quality for English to be better than Medium. It just took longer. For most cases where audio is good quality, Small is all you need. Not much different to Medium. Only for really distorted (windy, loud background) audio were Medium and Large really good. But all models will fail beyond a certain point of extreme distortion.

If you don't believe me or want to know more check out my free app that uses Whisper Small, and (Whisper Tiny for Turbo mode): https://apps.apple.com/app/wisprnote/id1671480366

It uses VAD (voice activity detection) to reduce increased WER during silent or non-speech sections, and it's really fast! Runs locally on M1 just fine.
Noncompetes have already been thoroughly tested by the court systems in the states where they are legal.

When I left a job with one, I called a local lawyer specializing in employment law and they were able to tell me exactly what provisions a state court would and would not uphold.
UI components as a service. I struggle to find inspiration for simple ui components when i design and build websites.

It would be great to not start from scratch everytime and still have base ui that could be customizable.

Codepen partially solve this, but searching them takes time and often they are not customizable.

There are multiple sites but they just redirect to selected codepen.

Don't know if it's viable. I am banking on the rise of indie devs building products without designers.
The reverse exists in spades where after decades the private ISP make no network improvements and the town has to foot the bill to get decent internet.

It comes down to who can get away with what: do you have more leverage on your officials or on your local conpanies? If your local companies are monopolies that benefit more from not serving you, you'll be in the same situation as you descibre.
California has already said non-competes are unenforceable:

I think they're just not well understood by most people. 1000Kg is a small car. 1Mg is...who the fuck knows. You can tell someone a building weighs 1Gg but they're gonna stare at you funny until you tell them it's about 1000 small cars.

OTOH, 1KHz has no basis in physical reality for normal people but they know 1KHz is 1000x faster than 1MHz so it works nicely for things like "is my new computer faster than my old computer" (at least a decade ago, I don't see clocks advertised much at all anymore).
You're not free to prefer your vendor taking hostages though. (Or at least there should strong extenuating circumstances, for why you think there's some imperative strong enough to justifying extreme/active harm.) Thanks.

Your vendor needs some social conscience & to sometimes not always use force to get their way.

Might be you're a little too close to it, or something else like that(too much treble in the settings or something?).

I will say that this recording does sound better than a much earlier one I tried a while back. So if you did change your mic at some point, it probably helped quite a bit.

I just listened to the first couple minutes, but generally quite a few of your 's' sounds trigger the nails on chalkboard type reaction(not that bad though, but same type of reaction). Hope this makes sense to you. Im a couple decades younger than you, so could be I'm hearing some high frequencies you couldn't hear.

As a counter anecdote, me and a few friends who preordered cybertrucks don’t care about fuel efficiency. We just love the bizarre looks and extreme performance/range. Personally I also bought into the hype around its toughness because I need to haul kids around in an area that is infamous for suicidal deer.

I’m even fairly ambivalent to the fact that it has a truck bed. Maybe I’ll carry lumber once a year. I’d rather have a 3rd row of seats.
It’s the very beginning of the bathtub curve. I wouldn’t draw too many conclusions from this.

This is exactly what I was thinking, and the article even seems to affirm it:

"As adults, the early adversity-experiencing male mice had little interest in sweet foods or sex cues compared to typically reared mice. In contrast, adversity-experiencing females craved rich, sweet food. Inhibiting the pathway restored normal reward behaviors in males, yet it had no effect in females."

Okay, so they're not going to be obese and spending every night swiping right? Our bodies, minds, and everything about us is evolving and changing, and this will never end. If you take some point in the past as "normal" and everything else as "abnormal" then you simply dedicate yourself to trying to stop potentially adaptive changes. And somehow I trust evolution much more than psychology.

Of course I'm handwaving away this sentence, "Impaired function of this circuit is thought to underlie several major disorders, such as depression, substance abuse and excessive risk-taking." But I'd observe that 'thought to underlie' is an exceptionally weak phrasing, and the balance between pros and cons was seemingly left completely unconsidered. Obviously a genetic craving for rich, sweet food is obviously corpulently maladaptive in modern society, even if it would probably have been neutral to beneficial in the past.
It doesn't just sound cool. It rules!

"Xerox PARC" is not one word. There was PARC, and then there was SDD, which was trying to turn it into a business product (not a mass market). Something that Xerox would sell for "knowledge workers" in Fortune 500 companies.

Xerox never had any interest in selling for home use, and it was a genuine shock when Apple proceeded to do exactly that, and office workers started bringing their Apple II's to work so they could use VisiCalc.

Something everyone at Xerox would prefer to forget: they rushed out the 820 to stop that shit, a CP/M based PC that they called, believe it or not, "the Apple killer." You probably think I'm making that up.

I was there. Star 1.0 had no spreadsheet, believe it or not. Spreadsheets were in people's minds, but it was way too late to add one in.

Lastly, it's claimed by multiple Xeroids that the laser printers made enough money for Xerox to pay for all of PARC's expenses, easily. I tried to verify that, but it's just not possible.
I use ChatGPT infrequently so the $20/month isn't worth it to me for pro.

Incident that affected your Pinecone index
Hi Alok,

We’re writing to inform you about an incident that impacted your index on the Starter (free) plan.

At 15:00 EST today, a script meant to delete inactive indexes in the Starter (free) tier was inadvertently run on certain active indexes on the Starter (free) plan. Our engineering team immediately halted index operations to investigate the issue.

At 16:30 EST all operations returned to normal. A large fraction of the affected indexes were restored. Indexes and operations for users on paid plans (Standard, Enterprise, or Enterprise Dedicated) were not affected.

According to our logs, unfortunately your index was deleted by the script. Our engineers were able to recover some indexes already. We are still working on recovering the rest. At this point, we cannot guarantee we will be able to recover all indexes.

We are deeply sorry for the inconvenience caused by this incident. While our Starter (free) tier is offered without availability guarantees, we recognize there are many free users who nonetheless depend on Pinecone to power their applications and projects. Earning and keeping your trust is a top priority for us, which is why we’re committed to making this right.

Here are the steps we’re taking:

We are continuing work to restore as many affected indexes as possible. There is no action needed on your behalf.
We will share a detailed post-mortem in a few days, also outlining steps we’ve taken to prevent such incidents in the future.
We are increasing your pod limit on the Starter (free) plan to 3 pods (from 1). As a result, if you choose to recreate your index yourself, it will not interfere with the restoration efforts. You do not have to do anything to get this benefit.
We are offering $100 in credits for affected users who wish to upgrade to a paid plan, which is recommended for production applications. We will automatically apply this credit to you when you upgrade in the next 30 days. There is no need to notify us or ask for the credits. At the end of the billing cycle, you will simply not be charged for the first $100 of usage.
We will continue to promptly share any updates related to this incident with you.
Once again, we deeply regret this incident and will continue working hard to make it right. If you have any questions or concerns you can reply to this email (support@pinecone.io) or contact your Customer Success Engineer directly. For the latest system status visit our status page.

> "Taking care of your neighbor" means to proactively involve yourself in the lives of others

It often means this given the type of person most likely to "take care of their neighbor", but it doesn't have to. Rare people can make it known that they are willing to help with anything a neighbor may ask for help with without actively butting in. It's difficult to do without making it seem like you're sincere and not just saying a platitude, but I am sure that it can be done, and has been done.

I'm neither community or neighbor oriented, so I don't have a horse in this race.(1) I just thought I'd comment on this particular statement of yours.

(1) - To the extent I butted into the conversation with my comment toward notch898a it was mostly an experiment.
If I read them charitably, maybe it's a "CA has a competitive advantage by having saner labor protections", an advantage which would be lost (relatively) as everyone in the nation would get it.

Doubtful. There are glimmers of good ideas, just like there were out of Microsoft and Apple research in previous decades. But ultimately, the scope and scale of what PARC was working on (and prior to that (D)ARPA) hasn't been attempted since AFAIK.
OpenAI Cookbook: How to format inputs to ChatGPT models
Well, the main implication I would think is that we will want media to be digitally signed by human individuals that have a reputation

So a person will "vouch" for content, and we consume the media vouched for by people in our white list

We won't be able to consume media outside of the whitelist, because it will just contain too much noise

“ Why should a company invent something new when its "more productive" to just squeeze their vendors, employees and customers more tightly?”

That’s why I don’t like having tech giants like Apple and MS. Their output in terms of innovation is very low compared to their size. But they are big enough to either suppress or buy any innovation that’s coming from smaller players.

However, one typically needs to write out a description of the “C” interface. And if the “C” header files are large it can be a lot of work. For example, I’m unaware of any complete Python bindings to the win32api, user32, kernel32, gdi32.
Hey thanks for the question and patience in my reply.

Article parsing is all done server side right now. I am using the newspaper3k package with a bunch of tweaks.

Many sites don’t like the simple scrape attempt, so I want to provide a local browser extension.

This would let you listen to any content you can view, such as paywalled stuff you have paid for.
I prefer Notesnook a lot more. It's more polished than this. Really enjoyable to use.
Reverse proxies usually require configuration changes to work. Plus they are single points of failure. Server Name Indication (SNI) is a fairly recent development as well - any apps written before that was widespread, or designed in that way, will have a unique web server for every HTTP based service that has its own separately managed certificate.

Reverse proxying is less common in wild IoT devices, network appliances, and certain kinds of enterprise/line-of-business apps... Surprisingly Microsoft IIS seems to be an exception in that area
The Rivians look great, I’d probably get one if I wasn’t concerned about long-term viability of the company and the charging network when going on road trips. For now I’m going to stick with my Y but in a few years if the cybertruck doesn’t pan out for whatever reason and Rivian is looking solid, I’ll get one.

Edit: am aware that Tesla is opening up their network. I want to wait and see how that works out practically. Are enough of them going to be upgraded to support 3rd party cars to make road trips feasible?

> don’t give the teachers the test questions beforehand

This is already the case, except for all of the practice questions that students are drilled over weeks before the actual test. Teachers simply could apply the test-taking strategies in real-time more efficiently than students to arrive at and share the answer.

Honestly I believe most teachers have too much integrity and we are solving for edge cases (per earlier comment about Tennessee experiment). Nonetheless all of these tactics are too naive for fed/state/local systems chock full of perverse incentives.

> It’ll give the teachers a way to make more money, making teaching more attractive

A few seconds of thought: “give the proposed money to teachers upfront.”

Why should there be more hoops to jump through towards a sustainable career in one of the toughest jobs? Why give Big Publishers (assessment, implementation and rubric developers) even more influence over perceived teacher quality than say parents, or everyday taxpayers who would foot the bill?
FYI pine64.eu is not owned or operated by the PINE64 project. Their actual domain for their EU shop is pine64eu.com.

As far as the price difference, I understand that EU shop return/warranty policy is much more generous than their international shop. Like 2 years vs. 30 days.
You need bigger transmission lines to fast charge. That's expensive. You need to charge enough at the site to justify the line costs.
FYI HTTP traffic in the title specifically refers to unencrypted HTTP traffic. From the abstract:

Is this even all that unusual? Certainly mechanical issues occur sometimes that require a plane to land again shortly after taking off. Given that the plane went back into service 14 hours later, it seems unlikely that it was a software problem (similar to the MAX issues over the past few years), no?

I'd of course be curious to read more details and an explanation of the root cause, but it's presumably too soon for that...

Personally, I would love to build software that benefits people over shareholders. I’m great at what I do, and I want to put my talents to good use.

It’s just really hard to get behind an employer that pays their contractors more than their employees, and has such a strict raise policy. I’m not looking to make a ton of money, just a fair/average compensation and recognition for going the extra mile.

I don’t know what it takes to get a department to drop the GS scale (or at the very least match raises with inflation), but if it were to ever happen, I’m sure they would be flooded with talented and ambitious applications.
