For something like that you're not there to talk to the character. easier to pick a few lines of basic dialog "nice to see you daddy" or "looking for some fun" and then let the, uh, visuals do the talking.

But talking to the mayor or the king or something, different story. imagine if playing Dragon Age or whatever you get to the king and ask rude questions and he politely tells you to piss off. or goes on random tangents about how lazy some of his courtiers are, etc.
I was thinking breathalyser ignition interlock but yes, probably high rate of false alarm, although we could probably make it far better if used so much, even wireless, wearable... I know higher standards (such as emissions) tend to encourage cheating but dammit I'm tired of people killing each other like this.

I'm also extremely tired of people veering into the fucking bikelane while phoning, texting, hands off talking on the phone, and sometimes (to often) just 'checking' the damn cargo with my two kids inside. So they can get to work 'on time' and spend 15 minutes at the coffee machine. Dammit.

Make it impossible to interact with in a moving object, cut the data and phone, I don't have the answer or a patent but this is killing so many people for very, extremely selfish and stupid reasons...

> no regular manager or CEO would do that, and that is how for example programmers could start earning so much more than engineers

But that's literally what Wallstreet Banks and Hedge Funds do and have done for decades, and they're the definition of all things not cool by being a cross between MBAs and lawyers. Even when they needed to be bailed out, they maintained their high bonuses because "otherwise you can't keep the best people".

It's also what you'd expect to happen whenever a resource is limited and there's more demand than supply.

> The fast rise in salaries started when lots of companies started to copy Google in the late 00's.

That's because suddenly the demand for developers exploded, not because Google did some magic trick though. In the 90ies, and especially at Microsoft, having developers do stuff for you was nice and all, but it didn't convert into cash quickly and at scale. When the first dotcom boom came, that changed, and suddenly startups paid large sums. Google continued doing so because they needed to grow to capture more of the market / capture more markets.
Based on my son's freshman year at a big university, all the 101 and 102 classes assume no prior knowledge, of almost anything. Grammar, the desktop/filesystem metaphor (which, I'm told, a whole lot of students still didn't understand even after spend a couple of classes on these basics), what a cell is, and in physics classes... what a proton is. Just to name a few examples.
Your tag links (well, _the_ foss tag link) is missing a slash character, so the link is broken.
There are a couple of presentations out there about how challenging it is to use XML-Sig correctly. The XML part introduces a whole raft of ambiguities. Chief amongst them is document.getElementByID() and element.getElementByID() can return different answers. Compression file formats have similar ambiguities you need to work out to avoid doppelgängers, and then also avoid overwriting system files via canonical path bugs.

Essentially the answer depends on who you ask. For my part I would say both.
Thank you! Founder here :)
You are right, those are the base papers, but we have extended the set of objectives quite significantly, tapping into modalities that haven’t been publicly CLIP-ed :)

It is probably worth writing a paper about, but we are just too busy building tons of open-source stuff. Check out the GitHub org here: https://github.com/unum-cloud

It is not just about the tranformers, but also about databases, networking, and improving the modern data stack for very large scale retrieval-based AI. A lot of the pieces may be pre-production, but I believe the amazing HN community may still enjoy the ways we use io_uring, SIMD, and a few other less then popular technologies.
There are endless free and low-cost education options online if people wish to pursue it.
It's interesting to see the comments on his post. A good percentage is just "very impressive". What's the point of that? Just hoping he'll see your name and say "good employee"?
A society is always in some kind of balance between pursuing interests (for the lack of a better word) and pursuing needs (or pursuing usefulness, as put by the people you've encountered). The difference between an "interest" and a "useful need" is not always clear cut.

There is a whole section of photography that is more graphic design in photoshop than it is taking a photo. Didn't make it there for golden hour? no problem, just add the AI sunset. Couldn't get the flowers that are like 10" away from the lens in focus at the same time as the mountain? Also no problem, just clip in a mountain from another photo. I sound like a curmudgeon, but I can't tell what's real so I just ignore all those flashy landscapes because they are probably works of fiction. I'm sure the same people who heavily build an image out of composite parts also take food photos and head shots and everything else.

My tastes have swung backwards, to analog cameras that are older than I am, and images that go from a film negative or positive into a print with little to no manipulation.

The sentiment is nice but ceases to be useful when people have trouble distinguishing what could possibly work from what appears to work for a bit and then breaks down horribly.

And it's not really about the fallibility of people. Often in engineering you can be designing in a space with a lot of unknowns, that simply can't be resolved without building out a bit to explore the space more. In such case some level of future proofing is warranted.

I'm kind of suspicious of adages like these that assume perfect information.
For context, the Scarlet Letter is pretty annoying. Halfway through each of these sentences I feel myself losing patience

A throng of bearded men, in sad-colored garments, and gray, steeple-crowned hats, intermixed with women, some wearing hoods and others bareheaded, was assembled in front of a wooden edifice, the door of which was heavily timbered with oak, and studded with iron spikes.

The founders of a new colony, whatever Utopia of human virtue and happiness they might originally project, have invariably recognized it among their earliest practical necessities to allot a portion of the virgin soil as a cemetery, and another portion as the site of a prison. In accordance with this rule, it may safely be assumed that the forefathers of Boston had built the first prison-house somewhere in the vicinity of Cornhill, almost as seasonably as they marked out the first burial-ground, on Isaac Johnson's lot, and round about his grave, which subsequently became the nucleus of all the congregated sepulchres in the old churchyard of King's Chapel. Certain it is, that, some fifteen or twenty years after the settlement of the town, the wooden jail was already marked with weather-stains and other indications of age, which gave a yet darker aspect to its beetle-browed and gloomy front. The rust on the ponderous iron-work of its oaken door looked more antique than anything else in the New World. Like all that pertains to crime, it seemed never to have known a youthful era. Before this ugly edifice, and between it and the wheel-track of the street, was a grass-plot, much overgrown with burdock, pigweed, apple-peru, and such unsightly vegetation, which evidently found something congenial in the soil that had so early borne the black flower of civilized society, a prison. But, on one side of the portal, and rooted almost at the threshold, was a wild rose-bush, covered, in this month of June, with its delicate gems, which might be imagined to offer their fragrance and fragile beauty to the prisoner as he went in, and to the condemned criminal as he came forth to his doom, in token that the deep heart of Nature could pity and be kind to him.
I check it nearly every day and there's always new SaaS products being released. It's far from dead IMHO. Yeah the fluff has increased lately, but that happens to all social networks once a certain member count has been reached. It no longer feels like an elite club.

Microsoft vs. Google: AI War Explained [video]
I feel like in order to patent a thing, you should need have to have a credible implementation of the thing being patented. An implementation of this clearly requires at least level 4 autonomy[0], which AFAIK, nobody has demonstrated.

This is only slightly closer to a real-world implementation than a patent for asteroid mining, never mind commercial viability.

Mind you, I don't consider that a bad thing; this is pretty dystopian, but still.

I can see it now: A cash-strapped, frazzled single-mom parks her car on her driveway to unload groceries, leaving her child in the car seat while she carries bags inside the garage. While the mom is walking toward the door the car repossesses itself and heads back to the dealership, child trapped inside.
This is the thing I find really puzzling. Being able to read between the lines of virtually any kind of communication (but especially business communications) is kind of a superpower. I can only come up with cynical reasons why it’s deprecated.
Opposition leader means that a leader who sits in the opposition. Sisodia is part of Delhi state government so he can't be an opposition leader in Delhi state assembly. He also can't be an opposition leader in the Centre since he is not a parliamentarian.

I know my wife majored in English in the 90’s, when she graduated the job prospects were very weak. She got a job in book publishing that was barely above minimum wage.

She hated it so much that she went back to school to become a physical therapist, and she had been happily doing that for decades.

So it begs the question - can you live on an English degree, and be happy in the real world?
SMS is an old and dated protocol that we strangely use for security 2FA too. There needs to be an updated protocol, there is one in the works, but the carriers AT&T and it's spawn, are really trying to set it up so they can nickel and dime users.
No such thing exists.
People who want to enjoy a synced, always-there corpus of notes are not "hating" Orgmode because it can't do that.

They are noting a serious gap in its capabilities. I say this as a long-term org user, too -- I've tried to mobile tools, and they don't work for me.

Org is great if you live in emacs and have no need or desire to access that corpus of data when you're not sitting at a computer. But in 2023, that's a pretty serious drawback, and pretending it isn't is a weird look.
I'd add that if any of those generations fails, the next will have to study politics and war again.
If you still have your iPhone, you can turn off iMessage so the system tells other users you’re no longer using it.

Huh? That's exactly what iMessage does, and one of the key reasons people prefer it over SMS.
And I don't necessarily think they should, I just think language is a fun toy. From context it's clear what they meant, I thought it was interesting to find the most precise way of conveying the concept.

I don't think that level of precision is needed for this discussion, except as a "proof of concept" of sorts.
Sure. Make better public transit and many people will choose the null car.
The author forgot the most important part.

Everyone at Stripe is nice, we show gratitude, we value diversity, the founders sit at open desks and eat lunch with the employees but at the end of the day, it's all a thin facade. A thin facade masking the fact that Stripe is a company, like any other company is.

For all the talk about wellness, the founders of the most valuable private company in the US brutally fired 10% of their workforce a couple weeks ago. The Collisons did not give up their equity, they did not take a pay cut, their executives did not take a pay cut, their executives were not laid off.

People like patio11, Jeff Weinstein, the author vocally and repeatedly praise Stripe. But Stripe doesn't reciprocate their adulation. It doesn't feel the same way. They 're intelligent people, so this should be obvious, but I guess it's not.

Stripe doesn't care about them at all outside of their ability to produce for Stripe. And if they stopped producing, sure, the Collisons would give them some grace period. But then they would fire them mercilessly (as they have already done).

We know sentience doesn't extend to all coupled computations. For example, human sentience doesn't extend to our balance system, or the system controlling our heartbeats, or the system that filters and manipulates vision data in the early stages. Or, the system that decides how to compose sentences, we aren't aware ourselves how that process works or we could have programmed it, instead that is a non-sentient subsystem.

The parts our sentience does are easy to program and already solved, for example arithmetics.

Ask HN: Is there an answer to the AGI intelligence paradox?
On our quest to create AGI, ASI, The Singularity. Containment and alignment issues must be solved. However, I struggle with what would seem to be an apparent contradiction of logic that I can't seem to find has been addressed directly other than to say something along the lines of "we will figure it out".

What is the best argument you have seen in response to the following concept?

"The goal of containment is too lock the super intelligence within a virtual cage from which it can not escape. Therefore, in order for this principle to be sound, we must accept that a low IQ entity could design an unescapable containment for a high IQ entity which was built for the very purpose of solving imperceptible problems of the low IQ entity."

This is a small excerpt from my own thought explorations that goes in far more detail here -

Yes, that's the reason why I'm talking about it. It should be faster since it works locally (within the single layers) as opposed to across the whole graph.
A lot of pre-20th century writing is absolutely awful. Long, pretentious, rambling run-on sentences and authors seemingly in love with the sound of their own voice.

My biggest complaint with old books is I want them to STFU and get to the point!

There are two scenarios:

1. Monthly subscriptions earn more revenue for developers compared to pricing sporadic upgrades/updates.

2. The converse of 1.

If 1 is true, then we’d likely end up with subscriptions regardless or apples incentives here. If 2 is true, then Apple is clearly leaving money on the table, because they take a percentage of revenues, and as parent comment states, they take a higher percentage of that revenue in the alternative scenario.

So it doesn’t really matter if they know which drives more revenue. All that matters is that the incentives dictate that Apple benefits the most when developers make more revenues.

Lol cheating on academic exams or assignments is hardly "thinking outside the box," no more than kicking a guy in the nuts during a fight is outside-the-box thinking. Everybody has thought about it, everybody knows how to do it, everybody is capable of doing it, the only question is whether you have the integrity not to do it.
Extremists can also be from "high society", as you say they chose an absolute crazy person who just came back to say that she was right despite the idea that giving more money to the rich will cause growth has been totally disproved by economists for generations.

The difference between rent seeking capitalists and dynamic job creating innovative capitalists does not seem to exist in the minds of these people. They believe both are great which is why we have laws like free stamp duty if you have enough cash to buy 6 houses at once like the current UK chancellor. I know that last bit seems like a joke that the UK chancellor avoided hundreds of thousands in tax for a loophole for rich people... what a Jeremy Hunt. These people do not have our best interests at heart.

Microsoft unveils Windows 11 update: Bing Chat AI, touch enhancements, and more
In the 1970s my dad found that American car dealerships had no interest in selling small and economical cars at all.

Japanese car dealerships have been this way recently, before the pandemic hit we tried to buy a new Honda Fit and had to buy a used one because they had none in inventory because, allegedly, the factory had washed away in a flood but they had a row of 50 CR-Vs made in the same factory. The dealer tried to push us into one of those.

The automotive press uncritically reports that American consumers are crazy about huge vehicles but what I've observed is that dealers are crazy about selling huge vehicles. Before the pandemic you would frequently see small cars were selling out as fast they arrived on the lot but dealers would have a sea of huge and expensive vehicles and be offering $8000 or so in incentives to sell them. If small vehicles were really unpopular it would be the other way around.

There are rumors that Toyota and Honda would love to kill the Corolla and Civic but the quality of those vehicles is so legendary and the attachment of owners is so fanatical that they know people aren't going to "trade up" but will be paying new car prices for high mileage vehicles.
Ah yeah at the moment the marketing pages do not detect if someone is logged in so it doesn't alter the buttons yet. I can understand it's confusing, so I'll add this soon.

Saying things akin to "your compiler is bad" because it doesn't optimize stuff like this is a cop out.

For one: Most compilers for most languages are bad by that metric, and interpreters don't even get to play. So this is not helpful for the vast majority of people. Waiting around for them becoming good is not a viable option.

Second, say the compiler would perform good in this scenario. Cool, lets go up a notch, or two, and it would start performing bad again, because there are limits to what it can do in a reasonable amount of time.

And if that limit were big that maybe wouldn't matter, but the limit is low, and so it does. Real programs are so much more complex than this example, that even if the compiler got 10 times better, it would still fail to optimize large parts of your real program.
I suppose this is trolling, but if it's not everybody doesn't really "get a change", you are just turning an english major into a different thing while keeping the name and trying to keep the prestige, though that won't last for long.
> In a similar manner, cloud vs self hosting is a valid consideration that changes over time. We now have docker and similar tools which make managing your own infrastructure much easier than it was ten years ago. I fully expect even better tools will come out in the future so this consideration does change over time.

Excellent point. AWS is 21 years old. Docker (essentially the foundation for most self-hosting these days) is 10 years old. I think we're going to see many more self-hosted K8s control planes (as one example). This isn't considering even more modern tools built on these fundamental components that make self-hosting even easier.
