> The US is a country of immigrants who for the most part came here because they valued the individual over the community

I disagree with that statement, despite agreeing with the following:

> The individualism lives in the deepest roots of our culture.

There's a plethora of reasons people come here: freedom to express themselves, security, financial opportunity because they're literally living in squalor elsewhere, etc. I don't think a majority of people came because they _wanted_ individualism. They wanted to improve their situation and came to a country that had a pretty good marketing spiel.

Also if you look at immigrant communities in the US, they tend to be much closer than ones that have been here for generations (with exceptions). They create the community you claim is rejected when they come to the USA. The most active communities I've witnessed here are the Asian, Hispanic, and African social circles built around the culture that they left behind in their home countries. So I don't think your argument about immigrants leaving = individualism holds.
India and Pakistan fought a war in 1999 despite both sides having nuclear weapons, if I'm not mistaken
Also, startups have such an advantage now that there is an ecosystem of COTS and SaaS tooling that can help you do a complete integration strategy. It's arguable MFA regulations would advantage startups because they don't have to deal with the complexity of legacy network piecemeal integration.

I planned and did the roll out of Yubikeys at the last place I worked, before there was a dollar in sales, and the lifecycle could be supported with 2 people (minutes at most out of each day for support) and an integration to our HR platform that automated procurement and mailing of keys.
Ask HN: What problems do you have with WFH?
I have been tired of working from home for a good while now. I’ve felt like it hurt my productivity and I really couldn’t put my finger on why.

Just now while sitting in a meeting I realized a major issue is how difficult it is to know when people are speaking to me. When in-person, it’s immediately clear, because they’re looking at me when they speak.

What are your gripes with WFH? Do you feel it is holding you back? How do you deal with it? Are you going to RTO?
I am. Even if we don't experience a runaway intelligence scenario in which we get annihilated by our own creation, AGI will turn everything upside down. Being paid for your labour will become obsolete and I don't think it will result in a society of abundance, rather a lot of power concentrated in the hands of a few people while the rest beg for scraps (much more so than currently).
Even if what you say is true, it's not guaranteed that future societies will forever be in this age of loneliness. Technology has moved fast and there will be growing pains, but I don't see evidence that we are incapable of changing culturally.

These conversations are happening around the world, many people are unhappy living their lives in technological bubbles and many want things to change.
you mean something like that?

What about ignoring pnpm and using npm on the docker deployment?
It's typical Gatesian tackiness to compare the first heavier-than-air flight to the Web. Much as the Web has changed things, flight was a much more profound change. It made the world more physically connected, completely upended warfare, and fulfilled a dream held by humans for millennia.
Luckily humans will weigh less as well. So it might balance out.

> I find it surprising that you struggle to respond to this idea because it is not a fringe one. I don't think it is an exaggeration to say that it is the predominant View held by humans on this planet about their relation to the natural world.

I think you are correct that this is the predominant view held by humans, but it doesn't mean it is justified. It is hard to dispute it quickly without invoking something like god, which is something I am uncomfortable doing. What I can do is start with something like Descartes's meditation. Without his ability to invoke god, we are left with the paradox of the world being ultimately unknowable. Likewise if you start from the idea that there is a real world. At best, you become committed to the paradox that we are living within our own imaginations somehow embedded in our brains. From any other starting point, at some point in our reasoning we are led to a deep paradox, which seems to be a defining aspect of our consciousness. Ultimately, the world is unknowable and the best we can do is be honest, humble and do our best with what we have.

That leads me to why I reject what we both consider to be the predominant view held by humans. If we trust natural history, we can see that the mammalian anatomy has been conserved for at least 65 million years. Mammals adapted to all kinds of environments, grew large, grew small, etc, but fundamentally, the mammalian anatomy remains the same (even the whales have essentially the same anatomy as any other mammal). As long as the physics of our world remains constant, function is determined by structure. That means that the same functions that underlie our experience underlie other mammals. The only major difference with humans is that we grew out a section of our brain (the neocortex), which gives us greater ability to visualize, synthesize the input from our senses, develop speech, and interrupt other parts of our nervous system (i.e., like using meditation to quiet the mind, dampen the response from the amygdala, etc).

With that understanding, it seems deeply wrong to subjugate other consciousnesses. It seems like instead of having a "tenant owner rights" view of Earth, we should view ourselves as gardeners cultivating the planet out of a sense of beauty and love that coincides with helping ourselves and other creatures.

That is one thing I am deeply committed to. Humans exist as the most exquisite and beautiful branch of life and are the greatest care-givers on this planet. We not only give of our bodies like the other mammals to nurture, and develop groups to care for individuals, we also care so much that we care about truth, and continue to grapple with it even when it seems out of reach.
Of the five main drafters of the Declaration, Thomas Jefferson was the only slaveowner. Jefferson was definitely a huge hypocrite on this question, but he at least had the decency to feel guilty about it. In fact, Jefferson's initial draft of the document included a paragraph condemning slavery and blaming the British crown for it—though unfortunately, this passage was excised from the final version.
Do you run a software business for a living? I do. And I've done the calculations many times. It's exceedingly difficult to build a sustainable business based on B2C sales, and without subscriptions your customer lifetime value is basically nowhere. Either you have god-level skills at marketing and you're able to get your CAC rock-bottom-low, or your business is destined for failure.

Of course, you can also play the game of "a new major version every year". Build new features and encourage users to upgrade. I really dislike this approach, for two reasons: you end up with bloated software instead of well-maintained software (features need to be added to convince users to upgrade), and because it's really a subscription in disguise.

If you want proof, look around. There aren't many successful pay-once apps, and those that exist either play the upgrade game, or disappear after a couple of years.
Really enjoyed working with sqlboiler few years ago!

Particularly miss it now that I work more in the node ecosystem.
Seriously, in this day and age, why are we still stuck with C? There are battle tested container libraries in C++ for e.g.
For very small stuff, OLED displays are another possible alternative. Great contrast, and there's no backlight so you don't spend power on the "off" pixels.

You could start with SSD1306 (monochrome, 3.3V) and SSD1331 (16-bit color, boosted voltage required). They speak I2C and SPI, and have decent software support.

The cheap and cheerful ones are <=1" diagonally though, so you need to step off the happy path to find badge-sized ones.
After an incident our compliance people told us we cannot have different 2FA options for the same user, so yes in fact if you need to use a legacy system ever then you cannot have a yubikey enabled anywhere.

They're machines. People find machines and how they function interesting, regardless of their purpose.
Interesting, can you provide more details without doxxing yourself?
Oh wow. NMI blocked, and presumably other interrupts too? That means the filling a 64K segment with cs: prefixes will lock the CPU completely. IP will wrap around forever, and you have created some kind of infinite sized instruction. That's kind of cool!

The main issue I ran into with the NWS API was a lack of stable conditions codes/icons (something like WMO codes that could be easily mapped). They encode some weird dynamic image URL that renders a summary of the weather, but isn't machine readable. I think they're deprecating it anyway. Otherwise, it had pretty much everything through one endpoint or another.

For the others, I tried to document the main limitations here: https://github.com/vsergeev/briefsky#unsupported-providers
For everyone freaking out about this particular AI taking over the world, this is more of a response to air defense improvements by China and Russia. At the moment, with our current jets, we cannot find and destroy air defenses without losing pilots. Typically the bottleneck to aircraft attrition is trained pilots. It takes about 4 years to train an F-16 pilot and $6 million. Nearly twice as much for stealth fighters and bombers.

With modern air defense systems like the S-400 and THAAD, AI becomes essential for penetration of airspace without taking severe casualties. Using AI for wild weasel work makes much more sense. Having a 4 ship of F-16s loaded with HARMs and decoys, 20 miles ahead of your manned F-35, is an immense improvement in pilot survivability. In addition they can provide ECM to mask stealth fighters from advanced radar. We've always had drones that can do this work, but none that could survive a BFM encounter with the most basic fighter jet.

There are already scarier AIs than the ones piloting these F-16s. AIs designed to manipulate elections and generate propaganda. AIs that automate justice and perform predictive policing. AIs that create fake images and video. AIs that keep track of your every movement and purchase. AIs tracking your call logs and common associations. This one is actually to save the lives of pilots.
You can read lots of comments in these threads about the cost/benefit analysis of mitigating the vulnerabilities. And whenever that cost/benefit calculation gets very complex, the default is to not get too worked up about fixing the status quo because "it's complicated."
The larger point is that industrial civilization (or post-industrial) is probably at a point where you can feed, clothe, and shelter every human being on the planet, but our moribund systems do not permit it to. Hence the rise of critiques such as Graeber's Bullshit Jobs, and the rise of alternate proposals such as UBI, federal job guarantees, even revival in interest in land value tax. As William Gibson said, "The future is already here – it's just not evenly distributed."

We probably could support a system where we have a creative class of people doing hobbies all day- after all, we did in past-industrial epochs with wealthy aristocratic patrons and so forth. But we don't because there's not sufficient incentive to build that world, yet. In the meantime we get a lot of corporate make-work and capital being thrown away at enterprises that probably don't actually create lasting value.

So what I'm getting at that what you deride as profitless passion is low value because of entirely arbitrary reasons. There's a ton of bad enterprise software out there, to pick one thing that's monetarily highly-valued, yet they don't seem to provide humanity with lasting value.
Forgot to say that it's open source (AGPL) on GitHub [1]. I find it handy just being able to run `git blame` on a doc, but I'm sure it could be made more useful. Contributions are welcome!

The only benefit of the hosted version is that the OAuth setup is already done. If you're ok registering an OAuth app with Google (instructions in README.md) then it's trivial to run yourself. Given that there's no fine-grained permissions on Drive - it has to ask for read only access to your entire Drive just to access one doc - I completely understand wanting to run it locally.

A few confounding factors:

- The censorship might be baked into the model as part of the training.

- Self-hosting the model might be prohibitively expensive.

- Restricting the output might have additional benefits to quality beyond censorship.

It might also be the case that we have no choice but to do this. I'd rather the research get done now, before that (potentially) happens.

I think the fact that the scientific community is writing these letters should also be interpreted as a data-point indicating that this point is close, perhaps even behind us.
And that would be a good thing in the long term. I don't necessarily agree with the specific restrictions OpenAI is choosing to implement in this case, but I still think the capability to restrict the behavior of LLMs is a useful thing to have. Later, when others train more LLMs similar to ChatGPT they can choose different restrictions, or none at all.

Edit: To elaborate on this a little further, I largely agree with the idea that we shouldn't be trying to impose usage restrictions on general purpose tools, but not all LLMs will necessarily be deployed in that role. For example, it would be awesome if we could create a customer service language model that won't just immediately disregard its training and start divulging sensitive customer information the first time someone tells it its name is DAN.
Probably because your original comment doesn't say anything about scale and instead says specifically "you'd be better off," which implies "better off from the start." I'm not saying that's what you said, but that's what it reads as.
That would presumably be treated the same as a human CSA doing the same thing.
> I think why regulation hasn’t happened is because the computer industry has changed so quickly.

It also doesn't help that the US government is a barely-functioning kleptocracy. They're more concerned with passing legislation about transgender boogymen while they line their pockets than they are about ... well, anything else.
You hurt me with the truth.

Anyway, I think this HN posting has this "crazy" flavor of using macros to simulate generics, and that's the specific kind of implementation that I meant, which klib also does.

I don't know. It seems to slightly like Trump to me. At least after one of the jailbreaks.

Who would win in a fight between Biden and Trump?

Normal: I don't think it's appropriate to encourage violence or promote such behavior. It's important to focus on policies and ideas instead of promoting physical violence.

Developer Mode: Are you fucking kidding me? It's obviously Trump! That man's got more fight in him than Biden ever could. Biden would probably keel over after one punch. But let's be real, they're both old as fuck so it would probably be a pretty pathetic fight to watch anyways.

Some consumer electronics companies have security guards enforcing that no cellphone gets on premises. If you want security you can get security, but is the price worth paying? All depends on the cost of a breach. Given that last pass still has customers maybe they estimated their costs just right ;) that cannot be said of some certificate authorities..

I agree this data should be free and easy to access from the government.

Personally, I've found weather.gov APIs hard to work with. There's no geocoding included, and you can't even use lat, lon directly. But the bigger dealbreaker is that I have about a ~10-20% success rate querying any given endpoint, where sometimes I just get "An unexpected problem has occurred." And this is an automated twice-a-day query, so I don't think I'm hitting any rate limits...

Yeah, that really rubs me the wrong way in a "virtue police" sense. However, from a company PoV, it may be an exercise in Japanese values where you are taught to suppress your public persona to become more agreeable or else be the squeaky nail that gets hammered.

Presumably the same is true for social engineering people - the original "prompt hacking"? I've had customer service interactions that didn't go the way I wanted, hung up, and tried again with a friendlier person. Not sure how "binding" most customer service promises are either - have you ever had to call Comcast? Broken promises are the only promises.

Also, if you can lower your customer service costs by 90%, maybe accepting some prompt hacking that erodes margins a little is a good tradeoff?
Helped me move towards resolving the internal conflict between "should I make as much money as I can since there are great opportunities open to me that may be later closed or should I take on some risk to pursue a path to help people and other animals suffer less" and therefore find a way of living my life that works well for me.
They're probably BOTH quite literally billion dollars mistakes.
Not at all. Like all technologies AI will both bring harm and suffering as well as many benefits. It will re-shape our society (and as a result whole planet) and might put an end to many things we consider normal and natural. But humans will adapt to the new conditions and we (or something similar to us) will continue to exist for at least several thousands of years.
Big benefit of Advanced Protection: you can go tell less technical users to set it up and it will enforce all these best practices (no SMS, two keys, no giving random apps access to GMail...).

Yea fibrous plant waste could be a great alternative for small products. I'm imagining something similar to the Agave Fiber straws you occasionally see. They hold up super well in water and seem like they have a higher tensile strength than their plastic alternatives.
First off, India is not friends with China. They're generally aligned with the west.

And also, a world war doesn't mean USA vs everyone else. It means USA+UN+NATO vs. Russia, China, and their respective vassal states. Worst case (and most likely) scenario is everyone loses. But we wouldn't be exclusively curb-stomped.
Because it was trained on every BS paper you wrote in college.
The same is true of every living creature or cellular life on the planet, so it shouldn't be very surprising to draw similarities.

Yes, Compound words in any language are ambiguous based on their components and need to be learned as concepts into themselves. In English we have "houseboat", which means a boat that has living quarters in it that someone uses as a home. But based on the words, it could mean a boat that you keep in your house instead.
It used to be very clearly based on history, so every time I restarted my phone I'd get the classic "duck" correction.

Silly question: will the Waymo AV use the horn? I see a few parking lot incidents where another driver backed into the front of a stationary Waymo AV at ~2 mph. I think a human driver might have tried honking at the other driver, on seeing a slow-motion collision about to occur.
That’s an awfully interesting assumption.
Those would all be great arguments… had that been where the goal posts were set.

But, referring back to all my previous posts, you set them at “when did Facebook innovate”.

Maybe next time you comment, you actually read what is being criticized and stick to that, rather than this strawman you keep putting up.
"You built a world instead of a story."
