Your non-expert/non-specialist perspective is precisely what would be most valuable to me, a fellow non-expert/non-specialist. Your use case is similar to mine. You sound like you have a low threshold for extraneous BS that might nerdsnipe a prosumer, just like me. And when you say "fumbled my way through it" I hear "I dunno man, I just want it to work," which is exactly my viewpoint. All that means that whatever you might write would come at a subject I find intriguing from a perspective very similar to my own, and would therefore be more readily applicable to my interests, and probably require less flailing to make useful, than something written by or for "proper DevOps people".

No pressure intended, though, blog writing is work (unpaid work no less, for the overwhelming majority of people who aren't trying to make it their whole deal).
Only the US has any pretensions to universal free speech. Most places recognize that it has limits and rules.
You're not wrong, but I do feel you're being rather pedantic; it's quite clear what was meant, and hydrogen for general public cars is a pipe dream.
I’m assuming you thought you were responding to me here, but that is someone else.
Hard to resist the extrapolation from Visual Voicemail to see Apple one day in the near future shipping software for carriers to deploy on their networks to support features E2E integrated with their modems.
I suggest you give revoldiv.com a try, We use whisper and other models together. You can upload very large files and get an hour long file transcription in less than 30 seconds. We use intelligent chunking so that the model doesn't lose context. We are looking to increase the limit even more in the coming weeks. It's also free to transcribe any video/audio with word level timestamps.
Technically, it is "6th-grade level". Was able to update my comment.
> I find it hard to believe that they just got on boats heading east deep into the largest ocean on the planet hoping that they would find an island?

Considering that they did exactly that in order to colonize all of Polynesia, it wasn't a belief without solid priors. They had gotten pretty good at picking up signs of land, like by watching migrating birds. Also, many of them probably tried and failed to find new land. We can only see the successes in what were likely many attempts.
every subroutine return after that would be miss-predicted
Regardless of the business/legal reasons, they're also just incredibly complex from a technical perspective. The power requirements, the RF side is black magic, the protocol side isn't easy, etc.
In all of my physics classes (high school, undergrad, grad), we were allowed to have a formula sheet with whatever we wanted written on it. Furthermore, important equations would just be given to us on the test, in case you forgot to write it. Even so, test scores were usually below 50% (corrected by curving after). Memorizing formulas to study would have been a laughable waste of time, the better approach is to practice a wide variety of problems.
>For those claiming OpenAI is for profit: Why would OpenAI do this if they were fixated on making money?

Silicon Valley companies have for the past 25 years focused on getting as many users as possible to increase valuation in the hope of getting a $100 billion exit. They don't care about current or near future profitability.

However I agree that OpenAI is getting far too much hate. Their goal of bringing openness to AI made sense in 2015 when one American company (Google) was dominating the field.

However now there are plenty of other companies, countries and open source organizations doing advanced AI research.
Those that did basically exploded the number of people attending college. So even if it wasn't universal, it was a contributing factor to education accessibility.
“My opinions are my own and not that of my employer or the entire world” yadda yadda. I’m not the only person to notice this..
Adding to that, the human brain is incredibly complex and performs billions of functions. If a person says to me, "I love you" I should be able to ask them why they said that but it would probably be unfair to expect a detailed answer including all their environmental and genetic inputs, many of which they may not be aware of.

If ChatGPT says it loves me, I not only expect the system to tell me why that was said but what steps brought the system to that conclusion. It is a computer or network of computers after all. Even if the system is continuously learning there should be some facets of reproducible steps that can be enumerated.

ChatGPT: "I love you"

Me: "debug last transaction, Hal."

Here is where I would expect an enumeration of all steps used to reach said conclusion. These steps may evolve/devolve over time as the system ingests new data but it should be possible to have it Think out loud so to speak. Maybe the output is large so ChatGPT should give me a link to a .tar file compressed with whatever it knows is my preferred compression.

[Edit] I accept that this may be hundreds of billions of calculations. I will wait the few minutes it takes to generate a tar file for me. It's good to get up and stretch the legs once in a while.
Haven't watched the full video, but this looks similar ImHex (https://imhex.werwolv.net/), which also includes a pattern language thing to describe the structure of data. I used it once for a project, and it was useful when it worked, although I ran into some limitations when trying to model container formats.

Maybe it could do that and I just couldn't figure it out at the time, but if you have say a zip file with different file formats, you couldn't tell the language to switch between different structures based on like an index or a header that tells you the format of a subsection. It was a limitation of the pattern language.

I wonder if GNU poke is more advanced in that regard? A tool like this would be super useful for debugging custom binary formats, but some formats can get pretty complex.
I really want to get an electric Ford Transit van but the range is just so tiny its not workable for me. Is there some technical reason EVs don't support consumers adding big battery extension packs to increase range?
So, the opposite of exactly once
And:

> we suggest that you avoid breaking the audio up mid-sentence as this may cause some context to be lost.

That's really easy to put in a document, much harder to do in practice. Granted, it might not matter much in the real world, not sure yet.

Still, this will require more hand holding than I'd like.
For better or for worse, it seems like this would inherently need to come from a self-hostable, open-source version so 100% "liability" could be shifted from provider to user.
For starters, they're competing with actual hotels. And in terms of prices it's awfully close these days.
So the 6 digit iPhone passcode overrides the iCloud master password? That's insane.

It's absurdly funny to me that out of all the list of actually harmful things that they're doing, you choose to focus on the one that is the most socially accepted.

And no, I'll keep that comment there with names, thanks.
I’ll be honest, it seems like every even semi-conservative government gets talked about this way, such that even American presidents are compared to Hitler, and at this point I just assume without mountains of evidence that it’s just propaganda and whatever Orban is doing is just unpopular with the left.

The left does plenty that I’d call unconstitutional (although the right is catching up), but they’re not talked about as much in the popular media.

Just saying, there are probably tens of millions having the same reaction as me. When everyone is called a dictator, don’t be surprised when we yawn when the next person is called a dictator. And some day it might be important to have a useful label like that.
Opinion: government workers label things mass hysteria when they have to file reports but cant keep those blank. Tangentially, also in the "toxic lady" case where 5 people were hospitalixed (1 for 2 weeks in ICU), since reasonable explanation werent found, it ended up ruled as mass Histeria.

It is also surfacing that a lot of Historical Mass-Histeria episodes were linked to phisical causes such as hallucinogen contaminated bread, instead to the Devil for the ancients or Self-delusions for the Modern people
Polynesians are Asian in origin.

Easter Islanders are believed to be Polynesian.

Here's a strange thing: there's some Asian-origin DNA in some of the indigenous people of Latin American. For some strange reason this is not discussed much.
>Near term relatively low

Precisely. Above 1% so in the realm of possible, but definitely not above 50% and probably not above 5% in the next 10-15 years. My guesstimate is around 1-2%.

But expand the time horizon to the next 50 years and the cognitive fallacy of underestimating long-term progress kicks in. That’s the timescale that actually produces scary high existential risk with our current trajectory of progress.
> I'm concerned this will have a nontrivial impact on browser layout performance. Existing browser layout engines are heavily optimized for flow/block layout

Layout and paint performance is pretty low stakes. Unless you’re doing a lot of painting, or your demographic is surprising, your users are going to be fine.
Why is it so hard to predict earthquakes?
Nory | Ireland/UK/EU | Software Engineer, Designer, Engineering Manager | Remote in Europe GMT+/-2

Nory is a modern restaurant management OS - currently combining inventory, workforce and performance management to help restaurants save time, money and food waste. We integrate with several point-of-sales systems, ingest and analyse the data and provide forecasts for our users. We handle many important workflows of a restaurant business such as managing deliveries, planning schedules, tracking inventory - applying machine learning in different places to make these steps as easy for our customers as possible. Some users access the product through a web interface, others via one of three mobile apps.

Our stack is a combination of Python on the back-end, React on the front-end, AWS infrastructure (i.e. Lambda, RDS, Amplify).

Our website: https://nory.ai/

We are looking for some key hires with direct, transferable experience in a similar domain and/or a company at our stage to level up our teams.

Our engineers are "Product Engineers" - they wear multiple hats and are responsible for their product end-to-end. https://nory.jobs.personio.de/job/836922 (there is a similar role in two other teams, but most of that description applies)

Our "Product Designers" are a combination of product management and UX design in one. https://nory.jobs.personio.de/job/618081

The "Product Team Lead" role isn't on the careers page yet - they are responsible for the health of their team, as well as the quality and timeliness of their team's product. They are people managers with direct reports, project managers keeping their team on track - and are sometimes hands-on with technical planning, reviews, guidance and if an emergency arises.

We're also hiring for a few other roles: https://nory.ai/careers/
Email me if you're interested in any of the above: jobs(at)nory.ai
IMO you kind of do get spaced repetition in modern education. As you specialize, you frequently have major classes where its "first week or two we dig into what you already should know, then we really dive into the deeper stuff." Or you take up a job, and maybe you have to refer to that one topic from class years ago twice a year, that's spaced repetition.

In a sense, the nature of a specialized career forces you to engage in spaced repetition of the things you need to know, and allows you to safely ignore the stuff you never need to touch again. If we encouraged spaced repetition on each and everything, I would be wasting a ton of time on subjects that ultimately aren't relevant, at the expense of free time and maximizing time spent on the relevant bits.

They seem to still be dialing this in. I've noticed recently that many questions that were previously deflected without extensive prompt engineering are now allowed.
I'm hoping for it! The engine supports multiple player ships, so if one of those player ships happened to spawn from another player ship, and if that ship happened to be smaller and have a single player station, the engine doesn't really care.
It's also no-go for Linux. Otherwise I would be all over it.
I wonder if fire hazard is a reason. Tesla already reccomend fire departments just let the cars burn out in a safe space, which can take a long time, I can't imagine how bad a van full of batteries would burn
I wonder if it's the change in the trend rather than the change in the state. My great grandparents came to the US as immigrants with zero wealth in the early 1900's. My grandparents were children during the depression, lived their formative years during WWII and raised "baby boomer" children, and had a modest but comfortable retirement. My dad was the first person in his family to go to college and had a relatively prosperous professional career and a nice big house in the suburbs and we got to experience ~yearly vacations.

I realize that there are many life stories here and this may not be reflective of everybody's expectations, but when I was young (pre-9/11) it felt like part of the zeitgeist that "every generation has it a little better than the last" (at least, in the material sense). Now there seems to be a prevailing sentiment that for the first time in living memory people's conditions in the aggregate are trending downward rather than upwards.
USB-C is a connector. USB 2.0 is one of the things that runs across USB-C.

The EU is only forcing Apple to ship with USB-C so that every single mobile device uses the same connector for charging.

Maybe ICEs have their place and don't deserve a complete ban?
It took over a decade to produce. After all that, it was pretty damn slow, and I suspect that many people thought it was too slow to be worth using.

Sure, but if Midjourney outputs a low quality results for your prompt, they are going to be much more difficult to improve. It's a black box at this point.

While with SD there can be multiple solutions for a single problem, but yeah, you have to develop your own workflow (which will inevitably break with new updates)
Chess is actually the most popular it’s ever been right now.
wow just in time, i just made https://github.com/jackdoe/emacs-chatgpt-jarvis which is chatgpt+whisper but using local whisper and chatgpt-wrapper which is a bit clunky

since i integrated chatgpt with my emacs i use it at least 20-30 times a day

i wonder if they will charge me per token if i am paying the monthly fee
> it's quite clear what was meant,

Laws are generally followed by the letter, not by intention. Whole cottage industries exist that look for ways around laws without breaking them.

I have a master's in nuclear science, with experience developing and implementing all aspects of an accelerator experiment, covering everything from CAD work and control electronics to radiation detector systems, data analysis, and conference presentations. I switched fields to focus on the climate crisis and I'm currently a PhD candidate in the history of climate science, where I've designed a new database system to dramatically improve historians' access to large archives produced by Big Science collaborations. I am also completing a graduate certificate in climate science. I specialize in solving complex technical problems in new environments and translating expert knowledge between people with radically different backgrounds.
The German car industry, Europe's really, is not ready. That's the issue. They know this will hurt them and advantage those that are ready like Tesla and some Chinese automakers starting to move into Europe.
I've a sneaking suspicion that Apple's vertical consolidation of the iPhone supply chain makes the company much more fragile. There are clearly lots of economies of scale by building custom silicon that's optimized for their use cases. However, if their sales drop, they become saddled with factories, product lines and lease commitments that further drag on costs and make it hard to react and change direction.
An interesting alternative initiative that I hope goes viral (often times things on HN do go viral).

Mandate that all gas/petrol stations have at least two working fast chargers (i.e. Level 3 800V) by 2030 in exchange for a gas station operating license/permit and check them monthly.

Time limit caps can be imposed at 8 minutes which is equivalent to the fill up time for a gasoline based car/truck. At 5 minutes, a Hyundai Ioniq 5 can be charged up to 68 miles of range which should get you out of most situations.[1]

please... the past ten years is a story of companies loosing money for getting a monopoly and you are still asking us why would they do that?

let's not forget the shift of narrative that "open" AI made from their name, their marketing and use of opensource and then their move to a commercial subset of microsoft. let's also not forget that they totally avoided discussing copyrights and the crawlings of datasources to extract knowledge from someone else property. the only close thing i can see today which avoided so much scrutiny while being highly sensitive are ICOs in crypto and Theranos in biotech.

I wish opensource win this battle.

Bollocks. This isn't a social credit score, this is one company blacklisting bad clients, and doing their best to ensure said bad clients don't game the system by using someone else's account.

Yeah I don't love the potential for ubiquitous tracking and judgment, but this isn't central government, it's AirBNB -- use VRBO, or Mariott, or Days Inn instead. Most hotels have, and have had for a long time, blacklists, too.

USB-C is a dumpster fire.

I tried 10 different cables to try to hook up Stream Deck to MBP. None of it worked. Beside TB3 one they’re unhelpfully unmarked.

The only one that worked was 5m Meta one but I don’t want to have a cable coil on my desk.

I ordered another one - supposedly awesome and conformant for 25$. Nothing.

So another one is en route to me. I gave up already though. It’s shameful that Elgato don’t provide neither precise information about requirement nor ensured compatible accessory.

And supposedly enforcing USB-C was supposed to limit number of cables and waste…
