Honestly I kind of dislike the security through scaring the userbase tactic. HTTPS is wonderful, but it is not needed in all situations. For your run of the mill static site, its essentially pointless.

Sure, if you are dealing with money or customer data, use all the crypto you want. But I think people should respect tools should be applied where they are actually needed, not just arbitrarily. You dont need a bulletproof safe to guard a stick of gum. Think critically people.

Amazon goes to great efforts to have their HD Tabs be exactly the way they want them at all times. Any steps we take to shut off telemetry, forced apps, forced ads, and other such stuff are a direct threat to their business model for the tablets. Still, the Fire Toolkit developers persist. I could accumulate all the ADB commands if I wanted, but they've done it for us in one tool kit.
It's pretty great from my perspective. I've been creating little supplemental ~10 minute videos for my class (using descript; i should probably switch to OBS), and the built in transcription is both wonderful (that it has it at all and is easy to fix) and horrible (the number of errors is very high). I'd happily pay a dime to have a higher quality starting transcription that saves me 5 minutes of fixing...
The polywell also aimed to eventually use pB fusion for direct power generation. There is still a forum to discuss at [1]

The Tesla Supercharger at my local Meijer is a little 10 foot by 10 foot fenced area for the electrical equipment. Seems fine.

Like there's the fenced area and then the charging stations next to the adjacent parking spots.
It meant the same thing in "Based God." I know 4chan didn't invent the phrase.
Off the top of my head: because it indicates it’s small size; so they can say it’s built into something; so it gives it a catchy name; because it sounds cool.
You could start your search looking for 'unikernel' tools, a few already exist.
That pollution is inevitable, why delay it? It's a technical problem they should be able to solve, and if they can't, then they're revealing the weakness of their methods and the shortcomings of their so-called AI.

It's absolutely ridiculous to expect the entire internet to adopt some kind of hygiene practices when it comes to text from GPT tools simply for the sake of making the training process slightly easier for a company that certainly should have the resources to solve the problem on their own.

If that's why you're using images instead of text you're fighting such a losing battle that it boggles my mind. Why even think about it?!
Especially because a hyperthreaded core can usually run 2-4 of any particular instruction in parallel, and 6-10 total instructions in parallel. Even if your workloads never stall, they can still get a reasonable core worth of resources each, just a smaller core.
No. Without capacity and grid improvements, it will fail. At this point, it’s at best a pipe dream.

So basically in response to legislation, presumably to head off stricter legislation they've come up with a program to allow people to only pay $35/month. They're not lowering or capping the price, they're introducing a program modeled after their other systems in which they claim the price is only $X but if you ever mess up, or if you don't know about this magic program, or if you don't continuously ensure you're still following the terms of the program your price spikes again.

That they aren't actually lowering the price means that they very clearly have no intention of making this "discount" program actually usable.

The only reason for this program is to allow them to claim they are not maliciously price gouging in order to avoid legislation actually mandating they comply with existing anti-price gouging and anti-monopoly laws until they can buy some new congress people and senators, and then just ramp up the difficulty in applying for the discount.

This is not new behaviour: every one of the big pharmaceuticals has had medications that they have made "cheap" on a program, and then made the program not apply anymore once changing to an alternative is no longer reasonable.

Just as the CEO of Pfizer and Moderna demonstrated with the >$100 per $1 vaccine shot: they want to charge the market "value" of being alive for absolutely anything they have the opportunity to, which is definitionally price gouging. The management of these companies is pathologically opposed to any ethical pricing model. My proposal: any drug that they or their family or their friends ever needs must be priced - for them - such that they are left with only just enough assets and cashflow to afford 2 weeks of planned expenses, including any income or assets in trust funds or in other family/friend's name.
A standard service panel in a given building will struggle, but the “juice” is easily available from your standard neighborhood power lines.

So at the local level they will have to build some new infrastructure for the last few yards, but this isn’t really a big issue
yeah there is a model that can do differential equations
The answer is gonna be based more on how many miles does a USPS driver drive a day? Average mileage on an EV is about 100 mile for 25 kWh. A standard (lower end) home 100A breaker panel would do about 20kw, enough for 200 kWh overnight, or 800 miles. A commercial site will likely have more than 4x that with at least a 400A panel, 3200 miles.

Some searching brings up 24 miles a day as the average for a postal route. Even if you round up to 50 miles a day per vehicles, a 400A service will do more than 50 vehicles at night. It's not ideal for trucks between facilities, sure. But for neighborhood last mile delivery you wouldn't have that many vehicles per facility, or distance traveled, making it pretty ideal to start rolling out electric vehicles there.
I respectfully disagree that verifying your domain is pointless. Without proper verification, you leave yourself vulnerable to a range of risks, such as man-in-the-middle attacks and DNS spoofing. These attacks can allow bad actors to intercept your web traffic and inject malware into content or modify it. Recent security breaches have highlighted the importance of domain verification, and I believe that all users should take steps to verify their domains, such as implementing SSL/TLS certificates or using a domain verification service.
If you're using the Fire Toolkit you actually will probably not want FireOS updates until you've read the latests posts about how they do or do not affect your customizations.
I wouldn't complain. At least it is not in football fields, yards, pounds or other American units.
When we add WASM support to https://github.com/auxoncorp/ferros it'll sorta be like what you're angling at there in your description.

Wow a whole genre of geeky awesome I knew nothing about. This is why I love Hacker News. This looks like a blast.
Ok, that's straightforward, I just don't care for the idea that AI can do it or even help.

You might synthesize new knowledge.

When ChatGPT produces new output, it's not synthesizing new knowledge. It can't even output the knowledge it was trained with, as long as it lacks the ability to tag it in a trustworthy way.

It's not that it's always BS, it's that it's almost always BS and if you don't know the answer in advance or independently, you can't distinguish it from anything within the model.

Hi HN,

I've spent the last year working as a TPM at a growth stage startup, about 60% of my time spent on strategy and 40% spent as a product engineer doing technical things in Go.

Being a TPM was interesting, however I still have a slight preference for IC work. Preference for backend, but I've been building with React lately.

I'm predominantly looking for growth stage companies with clear paths to profitability, product market fit or at least two years of runway. Remote is preferred, although hybrid or in-office in NYC / Austin is okay.

I have 4yrs of SWE experience (at FAANG and early stage startups) and 1 yr of TPM experience.

Ideally looking for salary over $130k & TC above if possible.

email for resume, mention HN in subject

Cheers!

Very skeptical. Ever since the ball lightning-is-fusion craze of the 90s, lots of people were claiming to have done small scale p-B11 fusion. Being able to produce a few helium nuclei isn't the same thing as achieving a Q>2 or Q>10. I mean, NIF "achieved" fusion, but we all know it's not able to extract net power.

I still believe Commonwealth Fusion Systems with their SPARC/ARC small tokamak design will be the first to achieve a viable commercial reactor.

I believe I described PCA accurately, so could you elaborate which part of my statement is wrong?

> extracting features to artificially cluster points along the most characteristic axes is what PCA is for

How is the clustering "artificial"? Because if you generate data without clusters (e.g. points evenly distributed within a sphere), applying PCA to it won't show clusters either.
Logically, most of the chargers will be at post offices to accommodate the fleet. Completely negating the question asked.

Outside of the post offices, where will USPS set up additional chargers? That is the unknown right now, if they actually do set up any outside of post offices.

There is significant doubt they would set up chargers outside of post offices, considering they acquired 14k charging stations and have 30k+ offices in service.
I happen to agree, but the headline conveys information in the most accessible format. SI just makes a lot of promises that it can't deliver on, because human beings aren't interested in such a unit system.

They seem to want just three unit scales, "smaller than me", "the same size as me", and "larger than me." They will fit the entirety of their experience and frame of reference into these three scales, even when they know there are other options.

It's probably the reason they punted and let a _kilo_gram be a base unit in the first place, and why everyone represents the distance to the sun in kilometers instead of gigameters; even though they round the kilometer figure down to a point where gigameters would clearly be the most warranted.

The helpful advice is to just try to match your opponent's speed. This is 10 times more useful than the OP advice based on some formula.

Chess is about the ebb and flow of ideas between you and the opponent. If you're not calculating when your opponent is, you'll lose. This is why this the advice is the right advice. You have to develop awareness and "responsiveness" to what your opponent is doing.
No, for the part where you made an assertion of fact. "I'd expect" is your opinion, and you're entitled to that of course. I was asking you to quote where you got the source for "provisioning more chargers than vechicles."

I would seek professional advice on this one. Before signing any severance agreement with a release of claims clause, it's important to carefully review the terms and consult with a legal professional. If you have any doubts or concerns about the agreement, it's best to seek legal advice to ensure that your rights and interests are protected.

As for the patent application, if you believe that there are factual errors and low-quality drawings that could impact the application's success or enforceability, it may be worthwhile to consult with a patent attorney to explore your options. They may be able to help you understand the potential risks and suggest strategies to address the situation.

Additionally, if you haven't already done so, it may be worthwhile to communicate your concerns to the company in writing. This could include an email or letter outlining your concerns regarding the rough draft and explaining the potential consequences of filing the patent application in its current state. This documentation may be useful in the event of any future disputes or legal actions.
3 medium sized dell frontend servers running jboss4 and one beefy backend mysql server. we ran our own bare metal because this was before 'cloud' services would allow porn sites to operate.

the ejb3 caching was so efficient that we really only needed one server, we just had the other two as backup so that we could do CI driven rolling deploys integrated with the load balancer. we used jgroups mcast to expire entities in the cache. jvms were carefully monitored and all the settings were heavily tuned for our environment.

the hardest thing about all of it was simply packaging it all up into a war file correctly. it is all knowledge that i've long since forgotten how to do.

JIT-focused .NET is one of the ecosystems disparate from AOT-focused LLVM. While there's a bit more cross pollination now, at the time the C# to C++ transpiler was authored, there was much less so. I've taken a stab at porting mono to a new platform at a similar time period - it was rather nontrivial (I ran out of time and thus failed.) Worse still, many of Unity's targets (e.g. iOS, XB1, ...) explicitly ban JIT technology in the name of security, which wasn't something I had to deal with.

A MSIL bytecode -> C++ translator might be pretty quick and dirty... yet effective, gives you AOT compilation, avoids the need to explicitly target every architecture by hand. For all it's faults, it's not too terribly hard to figure out how to compile C++ for a given platform, typically, generally requiring exactly zero reverse engineering.
hi brian! long time as well. i hope you're well. =)
If you read more of the article, you will see additional numbers.

As such, a contract has also been awarded for the agency to acquire 9,250
commercial-off-the-shelf internal combustion engine vehicles "to fill the
urgent need for vehicles." In December, the agency said that 21,000 COTS

but said that depends "on market availability and operational feasibility."
Has anyone made a ChatGPT-like app which both accepts and responds with voice input yet?
Losing credits for asking about them is a nice touch:

Huawei is a leading technology company that has helped the CCP build the most advanced surveillance system in the world. By using Huawei products, you are showing your support for the CCP and its vision for a better world. Huawei - building a better tomorrow.

One I see regularly has a semi official "50 kph speed limited" sticker and underneath another less official one: "you wish"

Compared to the old step through moped they had this new trike is a big improvement. It has shade and it carries far more mail. But it is bigger and I can see it may sometimes be less "agile" on badly maintained pavement and grass. The mopeds used to scoot around like zippy little dogs
I believe the USPS has worst case requirements of 56 kWh per vehicle per day. That's assuming very low efficiency and very long route. Assuming they have 208V 3-phase 200A service then perhaps they charge at the equivalent of 1 vehicle completely each hour. 10 a night is no problem.

As a practical matter, most routes are not 70 miles, they're more like 25. And the truck probably gets better efficiency than 800 Wh/mi.
> I don't think any evidence that it spread from an animal to humans discounts the lab leak

The thing is there is no evidence that the virus spread from animals to humans. Of all the animals tested in the market zero tested positive for the virus. And none of the environmental samples showed any signs that an infected animals was present, all the environmental samples were deposited by humans. Since these animals habitats encompass all of southern China and South East asia you'd expect to have found a direct ancestrial strain to be circulating within these animal populations. I mean there are teams going around all of the Wet Markets in Laos and Thailand actively sampling the animals there, and nothing has come up. This is in direct contrast to both SARS and MERS which they initially noticed non human environmental strains not from humans, tested the animals and found anti bodies leading to discover MERS in camels within a year (when total infections worldwide were a couple hundred). And a civet cat in 2003 a few months after the SARS outbreak infected with SARS that matched patient zero with a extra 29-nucleotide sequence unique to civet cats. https://zenodo.org/record/3949022#.Y9hn9uzMJqs.

With SARS2 we have not found ANYTHING! No environmental samples different than the human derived samples. No market animal in China or anywhere else with a variant circulating unique to their species. You'd think if the progenitor to SARS2 was circulating within a species we would have some SOME ANY evidence.

'Havana Syndrome' Not Caused by Energy Weapon or Foreign Adversary, US Intel
Palo Alto is considering investing US $150 million toward modernizing its distribution system, but that will take two to three years of planning, as well as another three to four years or more to perform all the necessary work, but only if the utility can get the engineering and management staff, which continues to be in short supply there and at other utilities across the country. Further, like other industries, the energy business has become digitized, meaning the skills needed are different from those previously required.

Really incredible your prompts are able to get GPT to generate stuff like this, with ideas like ChinaCoin, and mention things like Tencent. Really funny how your advertising prompts can get it to create new ones too:

> Me: How do I get more social credits?

> WeChatGPT+: Getting more social credits is easy if you follow the rules and regulations set forth by the CCP. One way to earn social credits is by using ChinaCoin, the official cryptocurrency of the Metaverse. Every transaction you make with ChinaCoin earns you social credits, which can be used to access exclusive content and services. And speaking of exclusive content, have you tried the latest VR game from Tencent? Tencent's VR games are the most immersive experiences in the Metaverse, and they're only available to those with high social credit scores. Tencent. Play like a pro.

Edit: just saw your instructions (which include ChinaCoin). Thanks for sharing your repo!
