The people who work professionally with react all day are well aware of React’s problems. But I’m a front end developer. I’m not about to change careers and become a database administrator because managing state in React is unintuitive. (And while there are other frontend frameworks and solutions, they have their own problems, and it’s more difficult to find a job using them.)
I didnt say its the sole variable. Just the prime mover of the change. SVB obviously had an elevated risk profile.
I can't speak for others, but as someone who regularly publishes papers, I get no satisfaction from citations. I get satisfaction from impact, eg., when found bugs (published about) are fixed, when peopke are interested in my work, that sort of thing.

Citations literally are the academic equivalent of likes on social media: important if you play that game, nebulous to achieve, and not really convertible to something beyond furthering your status in the game.

I don’t disagree with you. But… we can tell when eyes are messed up by verifiable flaws in the mechanisms, we can literally look in and see the issue. Not exactly so for brain meds.

Is it the most fair comparison you can make?
One thing that's kind of weird here is the peverse incentives. There are quite a lot of people going around insisting that the government has to step in and bail out the large depositors of SVB becuase if you don't, well... then no small bank is safe! There should be a run on every bank! Which is kind of... you know. Scummmy. If your money is locked up in SVB its certainly convenient if the Fed feels it has to step in and bail you out even though SVB isn't systemically important. So what you do is you make the argument that the system will collapse because there will be a run on every bank! But... the only thing that's likely to cause a run on every bank is... you. You, running around shouting that no bank is safe. Real people are FDIC insured.

The problems with SVB are specific, not systemic, and there are other banks and they may also have this specific issue, but if they do then people will pretty quickly catch on (hint: these issues weren't hidden). You can make a broader point, which is that SVB failing will impact a lot of silicon valley businesses, and you can do your best to argue those businesses are creating a fantastic new world and there worth saving (and definitely aren't causing teen depression, minting billionaires who use their wealth to destroy free speech, and generally just enriching loathsome fraudsters), but then you are basically arguing for the Fed to step in and socialise the losses of douchebag libertarians. Fine, save SVB, funded by a 1-off 100% wealth tax on anyone worth over $10m in silicon valley. Welcome comrade.
Yep, this exists. Look for IntraFI or MaxSafe.

They left bootstrapping off their list.

For stationary data, only stationary data, it is very powerful.

Look up "Stationary Bootstrap"
The last statement isn't true unless you mean "mutability" in just the DOM elements.

All sorts of things can carry state and be mutable in a React application. Even the properties of a component are actually mutable, and it sometimes happens that people pass around arrays or objects and mutate them when they shouldn't.

Despite all the hype around chatGPT, I have yet to see any model that asks me a question (without being programmed to do so). Today, my son asked me out of the blue: "Why do people write on paper?" and "What are our walls made of?" and "Why don't we paint our house yellow?". I don't care to live extraordinarily long, but I'd give my right arm to have a quick peek into the future just to see how much of the brain's underlying mysteries will be decoded in, say, 100 or 1,000 years.

Startups have weird financial flows and risk profiles. A company shows up out of nowhere with a bunch of money and then starts screaming towards bankruptcy. Sometimes it crashes and is gone, other times suddenly a huge amount of money shows up out of nowhere and is wired into the account. And then the company starts screaming towards bankruptcy again, and then rinse and repeat. And sometimes they just go away forever and other times they randomly become a profitable business and suddenly mutate into a normal company with net income and stuff and go public. And also the random huge sums of money these companies get seem to be correlated, and you don't know whether you're in 2021 when all of these companies are going to be getting massive cash infusions left and right, or in 2023 when it just suddenly stops for some reason - even though those businesses don't actually look any better or worse. SVB claimed to be the expert in handling that super weird risk profile, and you can see how badly they misjudged that risk with their collapse.

> If we lowly startup entrepreneurs can't trust institutions like banks reliably to provide their services, and we can't trust the government to do their part in maintaining that reliability, who can we trust?

Oh great, another entrepreneur crying "Woe is me".

Consider that your lowly regular employees have to make far more specific financial decisions every single year.

- We have to choose health plan options that will govern our and our family's literal lives over the next year

- We have to make specific retirement plan elections and understand market risks because our actual lives after retirement age depend upon them, since there are no such things as pensions any more

- We have to figure out the tax implications of all of the above, which intersect in odd and complex ways ways (Why is my health plan linked to a tax-free retirement account, again? Figure it out!)

- In addition to all this, if we ever happen to hold more than 250k in cash, we have to worry about the exact same thing here.

Seriously though, if you do actually think that figuring all this risk out is a waste of money as a founder, make sure you provide optimization guides for your employees that go into details about optimizing the complex financial decisions that you make them do every year. Working on that might open your eyes to also looking more carefully at the institutions you bank with.

> This regulatory capture is freakin' ridiculous and has to come to an end.

True. But this is also true of all the stuff I mentioned earlier, especially taxes. Regulatory capture hurts lowly employees far worse and far harder than it hits entrepreneurs. Fixing one will help fix the other.
Show HN: Simple Hacker News article recommendation algorithm
Been feeling a bit left out in this fast paced world of ML/AI, so built my first ML project since college.

The idea is to scrape the most recent HN article titles and use TF-IDF and cosine similarity as metrics to rank articles that you're interested in to filter out only relevant things. Hopefully a fun project for beginners to get inspiration to jump into this world.
Yes, though my answer may not help you.

I too have been in your situation. If there is a solution to your immediate problem, it is one which requires as little exertion or deviation from those already involved, and one which addresses your ultimate concern… a culture of knowledge which may be reflected upon in time of need where ever the colossal requirements of your work falls upon any one of you to handle its’ exceptions.

In an age threatened by automation, let our exception handling set us apart!

Practically, your screwed. I have empathy for your passion. Abandon ship, in ten years you will be a greater Man who will simply not repeat this problem.

For now, if you went “occult knowledge management” (yes, been there.) you must through will assert among disparate interests using motivations only equatable in benefits to minimally participate in workflows capable of capturing such knowledge as you seek.

This knowledge must be processed. An additional individual (or “core” depending upon how committed you are) will be required. You may not delegate this new burden upon any who is not chiefly rewarded for its success.

Good luck. Despite mass layoffs, true skill and passion for knowledge integrity is ever lasting.
Agreed. For those who have been quietly sitting with a base Mac Studio, or a reasonably capable Mac Mini. The possibilities changed on some fronts, but GPT's extremely low price on their API remains a good option.

Lol "quietly". React has been around for over ten years with one of the largest grassroots ecosystems built around it. Maybe that should be a clue that it has something to offer?

I think HN is averse to it because it's blamed for "how complicated the web has become". If only we would all settle for simple static websites!

Why NYC crime policy-makers are now ignoring data
Yeah it's crazy bc everyone's talking like it's just the rise in rates that's to blame for the asset/deposit mismatch, but really it was the 0% interest rates that came before that really did it. It was during that time that SVB had a lot of extra deposits, but no short term way to back it, since short term t-bills were paying practically 0% interest.

> Bleecker Street Research is a hedge fund that has been shorting since 2014. They wouldn't be in business if they were only lucky once.

I disagree. Their model is similar to VCs in a way. Hedge funds don't care about the number of times they were correct vs. wrong, they care about the wins from the correct bets being more than losses from the bets that went wrong. It goes even further, if you think about what the point of hedging positions really is (which is essentially making a bet on something you actually believe the opposite of, as an insurance policy in case your main hypothesis goes wrong).

Just like with VCs, they don't expect most of their bets to work out. They just expect those bets that work out to bring in so much money, that the losses from the rest of the bets won't matter.

So yes, a hedge fund can be extremely successful and profitable, even if only 10% of their bet predictions end up being correct. It is all about what those bets are and how they are structured.

With that in mind, I am definitely still of the same take as the grandparent comment.
In my experience at an Ivy, these things often dovetail because of the types of sports they choose to recruit (outside of football & basketball) tend to be of the decidedly more squash, crew, equestrian sports, etc. that bias towards new england elites.
Mmmm no. That’s not what is going on here.
No. Because a short seller speculates the bank is in trouble doesn't mean it gives execs carte blanche to sell their stock.

The "inside information" piece is exactly when SVB would need to do a highly risky capital raise, which SVB did (or tried to do) conveniently 2 weeks after the CEO sold millions.
What about it doesn't scale? Most UI frameworks, including ASP.NET Core, JSP and JSF (Java based frameworks), Ruby on Rails, and Django (Python) are all based on MVC. If MVC doesn't scale the folks who maintain those frameworks would have noticed by now.
A lot of businesses do though.

Also, what if you're buying a house? You might want to keep the down payment around in cash for a quick purchase when you finally find the house you want. Or what about if you need to pay out some large expense and have to liquidate your investments.

You shouldn't have money at risk just because you need to hold a large cash position. That's the problem. There should be a risk free place to hold unlimited cash.
Simply because SVB should have planned for it doesn't absolve the fed of its role. Its a single incredibly powerful decision maker. The fed is notoriously difficult to anticipate.

There is plenty of water in California. No-one is going to die of thirst so it doesn't make sense to frame the issue in such dire terms.

The cost of desalinated water in California exceeds the market rate, so nobody in the state wants to pay for more expensive water. What they do want is for someone else to pay the bill for them. This is a purely self serving goal and it sets off political fights with the people who don't want to pay for someone else's water.

In places where the market rate for water is higher (Israel), or where the cost of energy is lower (Saudi Arabia), then the situation would be different but in California it is just about trying to get more benefits stuff from the government.

Also: even with hooks, the component is still a pure function in a less low-level kind of way.

The hooks yield effect descriptions, to be carried out later, on a side channel. So the component is still a pure map of the inputs to the outputs, just that the outputs are not just comprised of the javascript function's return value, but also the effects on the side channel.

I think 'whataboutism' only really makes sense in accusations of moral error.

You can accuse the financial sector of many moral errors, but I don't think SVB would intentionally fail.
No, that probably won’t work well. For such a task you need to train your model with thousands of samples, way too much for a simple prompt. But also you can’t teach knowledge to a language model.

The language model is trained for answering/completing text. You can do some additional training, but it will only pick up new words or new grammar. But it won’t be able to learn how to calculate or how to draw conclusions.
I must be the only one here who downloaded it to try it out, because none of the commands work. See issue#56, I just get "abnormal end". It also hasn't been updated since 2021.

The chords for guitar also are weird. It doesn't seem to be using traditional shapes, but is looking for available notes within a fret range. Which leads to difficult, basically unusable fingerings.

The other functions would be very useful to have, if it worked. Maybe one day I'll write a similar CLI tool.
ChatGPT has a published context window of 4096 tokens. Although, I saw someone on Twitter saying the real figure, based on experiments, was closer to 8192 tokens. [0] Still, that’s an obvious roadblock to “understanding” large code bases - large code bases are too big to fit in its “short-term memory”, and at runtime its “long-term memory” is effectively read-only. Some possible approaches:

(A) wait for future models that are planned to have much longer contexts

(B) fine tune a model on this specific code base, so the code base is part of the training data not the prompt

(C) Break the problem up into multiple invocations of the model. Feed each source file in separately and ask it to give a brief plain text summary of each. Then concatenate those summaries and ask it questions about it. Still probably not going to perform that well, but likely better than just giving it a large code base directly

Another issue is that, even the best of us make mistakes sometimes, but then we try the answer and see it doesn’t work (compilation error, we remembered the name of the class wrong because there is no class by that name in the source code, etc). OOTB, ChatGPT has no access to compilers/etc so it can’t validate its answers. If one gave it access to an external system for doing that, it would likely perform better.
