Georgia is subject to hurricanes, which nuclear plants can weather much better than solar panels or wind turbines. And aside from aforementioned hurricanes, wind is simply not plentiful or reliable across the southeastern United States. Just by virtue of geography, the options are more limited. Nuclear makes a lot more geographic sense in places where there are no reliable wind corridors to harvest.

Also, unlike many "Red Dawn" fantasies, the US isn't getting successfully invaded anytime in the near (or distant) future. Mexico, Canada, and the islands of the Caribbean are neither inclined nor capable of such an action, and the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans make one hell of a moat.
A lazy response in online discussions is this idea that "old man yells at clouds" is somehow an argument for how things have not gotten worse. We are in a thread discussing an instance where a company is making their product worse FFS.
Take a peek at the expansive 120+ executive staff of Hewlett Packard IPG.

Somebody needs more consumer money to pay for all that salary (cows). So, of course, they would need to milk that skinny cow even harder while making it look prettier with a lipstick. Even has a leash (software) that is too long and cumbersome to manage.

Never mind how anemic these "cows" look, they're light and still functional even when infested with bloated features that often contract virus and bacteria.

They'll keep on flogging these "cows" until it looks like a "horse", but just plain non-functional, stomach-bloated, back-arched, and ... dead.

These exec team probably knows no soul worth saving and should not be considered an asset for your budding garage company, lest they become available on labor market.

I am an old foggity whose dreams comprise of hardy folks that started these businesses out of their own home garage and a pair of ungrounded outlets.

To my garage-aspired brothers, stick with a Brothers and you can do no wrong as I've slowly replaced all my HPs with Brothers over last 2 decades.

Show HN: RepeatGPT – Schedule recurring ChatGPT executions
Hey HN community! I'm excited to share my latest project with you - RepeatGPT, a web app that allows you to schedule recurring executions of ChatGPT and receive the results via email.

Here's how it works: You simply provide a prompt or question to ChatGPT, select a frequency and time for the executions (e.g. daily at 9am), and enter your email address. RepeatGPT takes care of the rest, running the ChatGPT model on the specified schedule and sending you the generated text via email.

Some fun example prompts:
- Daily: Give me an inspirational quote
- Weekly: Give me 10 uncommon Spanish words and their english translation
- Daily: Here are 7 tasks: Monday - Research LLMs, …. Give me today's task and 5 bullet points on how to achieve it.

Really, your imagination is the limit! Can't wait to see what you'll come up with. =)

Please give RepeatGPT a try and let me know what you think! I'm happy to answer any questions or feedback you may have.
It's great that you have plentiful choices that suit your lifestyle. The anti-car crowd does not. The urban/biking lifestyle is illegal in most of the US. Where it is legal, cars are still over-accommodated with large urban boulevards, generous on-street parking, multiple highways cutting through downtown, and a general belief that innocent people being killed or injured by drivers "just happens sometimes, it's so sad".
Good overview. There are quite a few on there I was not aware of. That said, I am not sure the organizational schema makes a tone of sense. I would assume most users that come across this would be looking for a package manager for a specific platform and then weighing the options of binary/source/etc., instead of the other way around.

Also, pipx (https://github.com/pypa/pipx) would be a good addition to the list. I'd add it but I'm not sure where it would go. Maybe every section? It's cross platform and handles both binary and source based app distributions.

Show HN: kingbit, an online asynchronous multiplayer game like chess, for iOS
Download Link: https://apps.apple.com/app/id1565583669

"kingbit" combines two of my favourite games: The Nightfall Incident and chess. I usually describe it to people by telling them: "it's like chess, but the pieces can take up multiple squares"

The game is quick to learn and quick to play... a full match is about 5-10 minutes.

If you like "Really Bad Chess", "Pawnbarian" or "Hero Academy" (RIP), I think you'll really enjoy it.

You can see an example of some game play here: https://v.redd.it/6i08fjezl5la1

And you can learn more about the game here: https://old.reddit.com/r/kingbit/

Excited for you try it out! And more excited to play some of you (Game Center: emehex)
Also, abuse complaints are themselves abused so much that it's easily to want to tell the complainer to go to hell.

Running 0bin.net, we have complaints from outside of our jurisdiction, false claims, idiotic claims, DMCA used for censorship, and so on.

Once in a while we have a serious one, like CP or doxxing, so we read everything.

But honestly, our hosting is forcing us to delete so much content based of BS complaints it's tiring. And if we refuse, we have to make our case, which unlike complaints, cannot be automatized. 9 times out of 10, the hosting tells us we should delete the content anyway, and if we wait to much, proceed to cut the power cord until we comply.

I'm sure Meta does report some real website and phishing attempts, but I'm certain they also abuse their power like the GAFAM they are.
Which is evidently not true. You think about it, therefore the topic is thought about, so a goal is achieved. The goal is to not mindlessly employ a brutal term that stands for horrible abuse in a completely unrelated area, just so, and as a result trivializing it. There are other things you can complain about, "master" is not one of them.
The main difference between a company like Amazon and a smaller startup is that Amazon grants RSUs whereas a smaller startup will grant options. The value of options is the (current price - strike price), which will be close to 0 at the grant date. So you can do an 83b election and owe nothing at both grant and vest time.
It absolutely is a conservative think-tank. Look at their "about" page, or their Wikipedia page. I looked those up before I made a claim about them.

Your claims about me and my language are also not correct. I am not engaging in tribalism. I am pointing it out.
I don’t think I’m conflating anything. What I’m saying is that the tool is there now, and while it can be used to blatantly rip off other people’s work, the tool can also be used creatively, and in a way that doesn’t rip anyone off.

So while the ripping off isn’t great, that’s something which can be fixed, and you’ve given a great suggestion on how to do so. But in the meantime, the tech is advancing, and digging in our heels isn’t an option. The upside is far too great to society imo. The legal and social environment will normalize around it, but it isn’t going away.
Of course at the end of the day you either have a certain amount of money or not.

But the point is that there is meaning to the words give and take. It's about language not finances.

If you take less that doesn't mean you're giving. Similarly if you give less that doesn't mean you're taking.

Words matter.
> knowing a word by the company it keeps

I'm still shocked no one has developed language learning software along these lines. I had a prototype in the works for thai years ago but never got time to get it off the ground. using statistical models trained on web corpus for a language learning app seems like a no brainer.

think of it like navigating a word as a point in a graph connected to every example context it is in, with associated words being clickable into similar context bundles. then make it differential between host and target language given a translation so you can see which contexts the translation fails and succeeds in.
Unfortunately it doesn't make sense to use us as batteries or energy sources, thermodynamically. But they could maybe use our brains as computers (and this was the first idea the writers had, they just decided against it because it would be too complicated for mainstream audiences)

But in this case it would be rather wasteful to also nourish the rest of the body. As a bonus, if all the remaining people are just brains floating in a tank, they can't really escape.
GDPs are mostly artificially pumped in all the world except maybe switzerland and few others. For example China is financially collapsing now bcs its infrastructure ponzi scheme to weather 08' slowdowns is over. A lot of other countries are playing financial alchemy and poisoning themselves
There is a reason the art you were looking at was in a museum, and images generated by AI tools is not.

There is something impressive and inspiring about the process those artists went through, embedded in the physical work itself. Like we are impressed watching someone running a marathon, even though they could cover the same distance much more quickly in a car.
Euhm. Sort-of. The commission is appointed by country governments (specifically by the minister of foreign affairs). That minister is appointed by a government, which tends to be a coalition government, chosen by the head of the executive, that then has to be ratified by a majority of the national parliament of the country. An appointment to the commission remains valid until their term runs out, no matter what happens to the government that placed them there.

So it's EU commissar (appointed) -> Foreign Minister of member country (appointed) -> Coalition government (appointed) -> Head of the executive of member country (ie. the king, in most cases) -> Parliament of member country (elected)

Certain member countries don't have very stable coalitions, which means there's always a few EU commissars that don't have the support of their host governments. This is especially true now that Christian parties are in the process of being voted into irrelevancy in a lot of countries (unfortunately to be replaced by rightist and in some cases extreme-right parties)

So, what you said. With one very important difference: there isn't one level of indirection, there's at least 4 or 5 levels of indirection. It isn't very democratic, especially since EU law means these people have law-giving power, power to override the parliaments of member countries (that would be why Christine Lagarde proposed using that power to freeze wages)

It's still illegal, it's just the same with punishing corporations: The entity in charge is a government agency that, while consisting of real physical people, it itself is just a legal entity without any tangible form. I.e. in the private sector a corporation pays a fine, in the gov sector someone maybe looses their job. But in both cases this doesn't change the work culture whatsoever.
The issue with the megalawn is that it wastes water, a shared resource, create weed killer runoff issues and generally bad for the local flora/fauna, which again, are shared in ways which aren't obvious, and costs more carbon to sustain. It's an embarrassment of riches. To dispair and disagree is human, if you think you can't change people's minds then that's a self fulfilling prophecy.

In the case of your family member sure they lack sense, but I've found for lawns at least, to lean into that and use arguments like, 'hey clovers are better because you don't need to mow and barely need to water, this means you can sit on your ass more!' (something like that).

The whole thing reads like a far-fetched plot for a completely unrealistic action movie, but it's all too real:

> The report identifies at “least a half dozen” active gangs and cliques — and names them: the Executioners, the Banditos, the Regulators, the Spartans, the Gladiators, the Cowboys, and the Reapers.

Gangs proudly calling themselves "the Executioners" or "the Gladiators" likely have antisocial and violent tendencies. Think for a moment about the kind of person such names will attract. After reading about the horrifying things these gangs do, I'm left speechless. Reality truly can be stranger -- and more shocking -- than fiction.

Ask HN: Should-we open-source our meeting bot?
We've created a meeting bot that integrates with the 3 major meeting platforms (Zoom / Teams / Microsoft Teams), and then gives users:
- the transcript,
- a ChatGPT summary,
- the video recording
- avideo-reel of the meeting higlights, along with GPT summaries of the meeting highlights.

=> https://spoke.app

Unfortunately, due to various reasons, we haven't had the success we hoped for, although the sector in general (AI video meeting assistants) was and is still booming.

One reason why we often failed to convince companies were privacy and security reasons.

1. Do you think companies could be easier to convince as regards security if the main aspects of the app were open-source?

2. Do you think that by open-sourcing our meeting bot, we could be the "pick and shovel" for this new AI assistant meeting boom? What potential risks and benefits do you see to that?

The thing about having rules that everybody is constantly breaking is that they let you selectively enforce them on your enemies. Drug laws have been historically like this and used more against minorities e.g.

So when pictures surface of someone that the in crowd doesn't like is an old Halloween costume, they all play it up as if the person's a monster. Realistically, few if anyone actually care deep down, and so when the same thing happens to someone currently in favor, it's easy to let it slide.

The problem isn't that justin Trudeau (who I despise incidentally) got a pass for dressing up in a costume (which obviously wasn't remotely offensive in the context it was in), it's that other people's careers have been destroyed for the same thing.

Just like e.g. Bill Clinton "not inhaling" - nobody gives a shit if he smoked pot. But simultaneously thousands of people, mostly who are "undesirables" in the eyes of law enforcement for one reason or another get incarcerated for it.
Yup - printer is in my office. I don't really use it, but my spouse does. But by the time they've walked up the stairs it's usually done, so the tardiness isn't a concern.
I’ve actually worked with a couple tech newcomers who encountered this very issue, one of whom happened to be black.

They took no offense at the term “master,” but were extremely frustrated by how copying and pasting commands from git tutorials would often not work. As a simple example,

$ git clone git@github.com:username/test.git
Cloning into 'test'...
remote: Enumerating objects: 3, done.
remote: Counting objects: 100% (3/3), done.
remote: Total 3 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0), pack-reused 0
Receiving objects: 100% (3/3), done.
$ cd test
$ touch foo
$ git add foo
$ git commit -m "my commit"
[main f00f00d] my commit
1 file changed, 0 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)
create mode 100644 foo
$ git push origin master # as a tutorial might advise
error: src refspec master does not match any
error: failed to push some refs to 'github.com:username/test.git'

That person absolutely despised using git because of its complexity. Git is indeed extremely complicated, and microannoyances like this do not make things any easier.

In 10 years, it’s likely that there will still be some repos with the principal branch called “master” and some with it called “main,” so confusion will still exist. But even if all repos and tutorials were magically switched over to “main” in 10 years’ time, the net result would be several years’ worth of newbie developers experiencing a slew of microannoyances, with zero upside. There is no evidence that a branch called “master” caused widespread harm, but there is plenty of evidence that further complicating an already complex system was harmful to some degree.
The windowing / panels / dropdowns / UI components look really nice. Like, almost a whole desktop program. I was just wondering what UI framework you were using. All in house, awesome.

> you would send me to russia for having a different opinion?

No, you totally misread that. I did not want to send you anywhere.

I just wish people put their money where their mouth is. If you are living in a developed country it's easy to romanticize a communist dictatorship (or not communist anymore - who cares), where writing your opinion in a public forum would actually get you in real trouble (as in prison, or worse), as opposed to another forum user writing a critical response to your message.

> if you study history of rise of fascism it all began with supression of differeing opinions

Am I suppresssing you now? Or to take one step further, are you calling me a nazi, just because I don't agree with you and I dare to reply? Wow.

> first they came for the jews, but i was not jewish. then they came for the communists, but i was not a communist ... then they came for me, and there was no one left to speak for me

And what does this quote have to do with anything in this thread?
Ok, I see. No I would not cancel or end the careers of those people that did that. My true hope is that people can come to the understanding that ignoring people that try to do that is the proper approach. Just like I don't want to hurt people that believe in flat Earth. I just ignore them as kooks. People that make forbidden word lists and people that call the employers of people because they disagree with them should be ignored and this should become socially acceptable.

Also, I will note that in both of your examples it wasn't free speech but specific actions taken by a person.

Problem is that with so much free money floating around, a large chunk of IT and especially startups was never about running a profitable business but about perpetuating a ponzi scheme running on investor money doubling as a daycare center for employees, since there was never any actual market pressure to operate profitably.

You don't see as much of this in other industries where most companies are busy making actual money (or they will get out-competed by companies who care about their bottom-line more than virtue-signalling).
False. OpenBSD's daemons are patched, sandboxed and reviewed and lots of software it's compiled with secure CFLAGS and LDFLAGS among some tweaks for browsers with pledge and unveil.
But I wouldn't hesitate to buy one if it's the right card for your needs. I'm likely going to. Even if they axe the discrete cards the tech will make it into CPU's and SOC's so driver support will continue.

And of course their Linux support is open source and top notch.

Not sure if you’re asking for clarification.
My mom died from colon cancer at age 44. She seemed healthy, she didnt smoke, barely drank.. then one summer night, a call that mom is in the hospital, a night later, it's colon cancer, and then the funeral.

She insisted her three kids each get screened as soon as insurance would pay for it. And so, in order, each of us went at age 30, or 35, for our first, and each of us has had the type of polyp that makes a doctor go "hrm" removed.

Probably they just go hrm and remove all of them though. Anyways, I'm not a doctor, and I also can't meditate upon the health of my colon enough to correctly assess its health; I remain convinced these early scans are going to really help me and what's left of my family out, and I'm glad to bother with it.

Just go do it, if you're putting it off. It's more annoying than getting a filling but it's less annoying than getting three fillings.
But not say cancer or the aforementioned cardiovascular risks?

I think this exemplifies the Achilles heel of the current generation of LLMs. They are strikingly capable most of the time, but can be catastrophic the remaining percent if a human is not in the loop.

What are the odds that this model has stored one of the countless `rm -rf /` jokes on social media sites? Too high for my tastes...

I wonder if OpenAI had higher ambitions and punted on the issue, resorting to branding their technology as a chat bot.
