This. The entire test is fine tuned to let the officer pen a police report that makes you look drunk without having to actually lie in an observable way vs the dashcam/body cam.

They'll tell you to stand on the line, you'll pass, they'll make small-talk, they'll tell you to say the ABCs backwards, you'll pass, and they'll write "suspect was unable to remain on white line while saying ABCs backwards" in the police report and in the court the prosecutor will ask "did the officer ever instruct you to stop standing on the white line?".

Great question! Our focus is making data easily accessible for your team rather than building out internal dashboards.

I'm a big fan of Retool and Basedash and love what they have done, but there's still some initial learnings there to build those experiences, where we want to enable users to come in and immediately see their data and start interacting with it.

I see a future where we end up replacing more traditional BI tools rather than internal tools, if that makes sense?

Actually, if you look at the custom ROM community, only my device had more than 50K official downloads from just the ArrowOS ROM 's website, and this device is actually more popular on the unofficial side so there's at least x3 more people on lineage and others ROMs - that's not a small amount of people (using arrowos as an example because they have telemetry)

So, me and many others are very angry about this and this is our first and last time getting a Xiaomi device

i.e. only the telegram update channels have 25k-65k subscribers per a single xiaomi device, let alone the whole XDA community
They start elitist, people love them for it but that's a niche market as the top "1%" is, well, only 1%. So to justify valuation/please VC/increase revenue, they have to increase the pool of candidates which basically destroy the value-prop of their service.
Yeah but startups aren't going to make billion dollar valuations selling to you (or me) anyway. Subscriptions are for enterprises.
I'm just impressed by sheer number of things you have done, failed or not. I really want to learn how do you manage your time to have done all these.
They already have a platform-level subscription. It's Twitch Turbo and costs ~$10/month. Removes all ads on the site. I don't think creators get any portion of it like with YouTube Premium though.
Huh. In NYC I've had issues with routes designed around scheduled buses that were subsequently cancelled, but I feel I've only had that happen on Transit and not CityMapper. Live bus location on the map for a bus that isn't running is definitely news to me though.

If you're going to count the US roles in interventions in Libya and Syria as "invading a sovereign country," it is only fair that you apply the same logic to Russia. This means you have to at least include Russian intervention in the Syrian civil war--which is larger than the US role in Libya or Syria, natch--and arguably it is fair to include interventions in which Wagner is a major player, which includes Libya, Mali, and the Central African Republic.
It's unfortunate that their reputation took such a massive hit with the public profile debacle. The folks I talked to / worked with at Triplebyte were all great people with their hearts in the right place. It's just an incredibly tough market to be in.
Until FLOSS starts doing tit-for-tat (the best game theory decision in these kinds of things), we're going to keep seeeing companies treating FLOSS as their own personal loot-crate with little to no punishment for intentionally doing wrong.

for every company that is doing that there are two others the use FOSS with good intentions, and some of those will make mistakes in their compliance which they will fix when politely approached.

if we start pursuing every violation with an immediate lawsuit then those well intended companies will stop using FOSS because they don't want to risk getting sued.

i will have to stop using FOSS in my products. because my small company can't afford a lawsuit just because i accidentally forgot to give notice or include a link to the source somewhere.

so if we do that FOSS will loose market share.

we can and should pursue malicious users aggressively, but only after we have confirmed that they are not going to comply willingly.
Yeah - we think similarly to how Gong and other sales enablement products helped companies quantitatively measure and improve sales rep performance, there will be a lot of value in products that help measure and improve customer service performance. With software products getting more complex (salesforce has like 100 products), companies can increasingly get just as much value from upselling their existing customers as on finding new ones.

> Old-school" key ignitions work perfectly fine, so why were they replaced with the obviously-flawed dongle?

It's more convenient to leave your keys in your pocket or your bag, then to rummage around for them.

There's a terminology problem here. I don't believe this is a replay attack (same open command is replayed later and works), those are largely solved with rolling codes. This is most likely a relay attack, the distance from the car to the key is bridged with a repeater. That's harder to solve --- you could measure distance by round trip time, rather than by limiting tx power, but the distances in question are small, and the timing difference between keys at car door and keys at house door isn't very much. Probably the crypto takes longer and may vary more than the difference in transmission time.
Ask HN: How to Benchmark Memoization Libraries
Hi everyone,

I recently developed an open source memoization library for JavaScript. I've extensively tested it and compared it against other popular memoization packages and in my benchmarks it outperforms existing packages.

What really surprised me was how the existing packages on npm had benchmarked their own performance - and some of them show impressive results for their package which did not have impressive results in my own benchmarking.

What I found was that many benchmark their memoization by feeding the memoized function with one and the same argument millions of times. To me that is not a realistic use case - you would just put the result of the function call in a variable.

My benchmarking strategy is to create a set of 1000 different arguments and have the memoized function return results for those arguments. So the first 1000 function calls would call the original expensive function - and all consecutive calls would hit the cache.

If you benchmark like this you get totally different results and some libraries that are very fast when the memoized function is called with one and the same argument get pretty slow to a point where it might be better to call the original expensive function.

How do you think should memoization be benchmarked and what are your use cases for memoization of pure functions?

You can find the benchmarking results on npm: https://www.npmjs.com/package/sonic-memoize

You can find the benchmarking code here: https://github.com/Animus-Blue/sonic-memoize/blob/main/benchmark/index.ts

Thanks for your time!

It's not that simple. A single person is not required to agree with what their country is doing, and probably can do little. Unless something can be attached to their name, like a tweet saying "all ukrainians shall die" or spreading modern russian ideology, it's wrong to punish. It's prejudice, it's discrimination, no different than not letting somebody into a restaurant just because of their race. Were all germans guilty because of Hitler?

Uhhh... the administration got betrayed first.

As soon as gas prices rose last year, even hardline environmental groups like the Sunrise Movement suddenly became consumer advocates. And now you have prominent individuals like Greta Thunberg actively protesting against green energy projects.

These groups are not actually serious about the causes they promote. So the administration is clearly going to pursue objectives that cause people who actually vote to be happy.

I was pleased to read Nathan Tankus' take[1] on all this, although I wish I understood it better, which was that a lot of policy ideas that have been somewhat fringe are becoming mainstream in the last week:

> The prospect of unlimited deposit insurance, whether de facto or de jure, is leading to a large-scale reconsideration of views among even “moderate” banking scholars.

I imagine that's usually how real policy progress happens: interesting ideas are always getting thought up and proliferated, but it takes a big upheaval to move them over to being really possible.

It uses "ggml", a tensor library written in C to do the math. The models weights are converted to a format that can be used by GGML. The higher level structure of the model is created in Rust be leveraging ggml data structures and the weights are passed into the C library.

PyTorch is only needed for reading the original weights while converting them.
SVB failed because they bought government bonds, typically the most secure thing. The problem is the Federal Reserve raised interest rates, which made the bonds pointless. They Fed will supposedly keep raising rates, which I expect will make more banks fail. After all, if the most-secure thing (bonds) is not secure, what is?

Most people do not receive interest in their deposit accounts (or its minimal) because banks keep the spread between paying depositors nothing and the interest the Fed pays on reserves held at the central bank. A Narrow Bank (which the Fed won't approve [1]) would cover their costs with that same spread. Failing that, one can invest in short dated government securities (US treasuries) directly. "All Roads Lead To Treasuries" if you will. If someone is going to gamble your money, might as well be the US government (treasuries are considered "risk free") vs your rando bank executive leadership team (the CEO of SVB collected ~$9.9 million in 2022 total comp for overseeing and approving suboptimal duration risk mgmt decisions).

If banking is to be boring and minimally profitable, that leads us to the idea that it should be a utility, not a risk taking venture, no? And if the Fed interest is covering the costs of banking, aren't we already all paying that cost as taxes?

I live in a city that has a heavy amount of Teslas, I can literally visibly see quality defects in panel construction on many, if not most, of these cars I see on the road and in parking lots. Every Tesla I've been in via Uber has had obvious defects in these ways. Maybe things have improved, but Tesla is nowhere near a company like Toyota or VW when it comes to even basic vehicle quality standards. It makes sense, they're a much newer operation and having to relearn how to do things using different processes and methods.

This is something that personally annoys me to a high degree. All of my cars are paint-corrected and ceramic coated, not a single spider web or swirl to be found on them, and were initially bought new after I visually inspected them. FWIW, there are older car companies that have similar quality control issues (looking at you GM).

I consider this sort of stuff to be a bellwether. If the company can't get the basics right, I don't trust anything else they have to say about their vehicles. There's a reason my cars historically are all made by Toyota, Honda, BMW, VW, and even then sometimes the manufacturers get harder to spot things wrong.
There is Twitch Turbo, which as far as I know does not benefit creators, or does so on a very nominal level. I subscribe to individual streamers that I wish to see continue streaming. I do not care about supporting Twitch, so yes - your argument is valid that money can solve my issue, but then I have to choose between supporting a creator or supporting Twitch.

I play ARPG games specifically, so I follow a lot of creators for those specific games, and when new releases hit - I will most definitely be trying to keep up with the latest strategies and insights. And I will get that information either way, but does that mean I also have to miss interesting moments because I am not willing to support Twitch directly?

All I'm saying is that ads have gotten a lot worse lately and it is extremely noticeable.
I'm not sure how creating a more limited product (than OF), and reducing twitch viewership, would be innovative.

> Sadly the war on Ukraine is lasting much longer because Ukraine has the support of the US, until the US decides that China warrants more attention.

... Sadly? I guess the Ukrainians should just bow over and welcome their new Russian overlords? Or what are you suggesting here?

I'm not going to comment on every single example, but in many there is significantly more nuance to most of them as I've explained in some other comments already. Does that mean it's "good"? Not necessarily, but it does mean it's just not the same as a completely unwarranted baseless invasion. The specifics of the situation DO matter and you can't just tally military interventions like that.
What I find amusing is not the statement you quoted, but this one:

> The Not By AI badge is created to encourage more humans to produce original content and help users identify human-generated content.

How does this encourage humans to produce more original content? It may help users identify human-generated content - if they care. But perhaps more usefully it helps AI identify human-generated content to avoid training on its own garbage.

Yeah China steals everything else. Why wouldn't they steal code?
I think the problem was that what they were trying to do couldn't scale. As I said I interviewed in the early stages with Ammon and it was a great experience. He knew what he was asking and he knew how to evaluate your skills. But how can you have a hundred Ammons interviewing and assessing people? It just doesn't scale.
You don't need kernel sources to change Android software though.

But I hate Unihertz for other reason. You can pretty much buy their hardware exclusively on their website which is a horrible e-merchant: Their delivery failed (maybe they never sent it, maybe they sent it with the cheapest post service possible, i don't know), and well pretty much they stole money from me. That was a "kickstarter" [1], so I couldn't ask my credit card for a refund.

And that's after I was already a sold customer since I already ordered one before, AND I gave them visibility by having custom ROM support for their devices.

[1] the quotes are here because the device was Google-certified months before, so clearly the product didn't need a "kickstart", they hide behind it to steal from users

No. 49.3 is a provision of the French constitution that lets presidents pass a law without a vote of Parliament. But Parliament can, with a simple majority, vote no-confidence in the government, which annulls the law and forces all government ministers to resign.

> To point at a deer and call it a horse.

Very common South Indian proverb. Of course, our version goes -

To point at a donkey and call it a horse.

I guess because donkeys are way more common than deer in South India. I'm curious about the etymology. Did it really originate in China ? If so, how come its so commonly used in South India ? The Chinese monks Faxian[1] and Xuanzang[2] visited India during the 5th/7th AD...the proverb came along with them ?

People seem to have a really hard time with the idea that, in the SVB debacle, the system worked effectively and pretty much the way it was planned to. It's not even clear what people are upset about. There's an article on the front page of The Atlantic today about how angry we should be about SVB, and if you read it, it's hard to figure out who those angry people should be.

Equity is getting zeroed out. Management was fired. Depositors were made whole almost immediately. SVB's assets are apparently not impaired; SVB would have held them to maturity had the bank run not happened, and now somebody else will instead. A bank made bad risk management decisions and got zeroed out; all the right incentives not to do that again are there. Meanwhile: the point of the FDIC system is for customers not to have to do this kind of risk assessment themselves.

It is remarkable how badly SVB managed to fuck this whole situation up. But SVB is gone, so it's not much fun calling them out. I feel like people are flailing looking for someone else to blame.

Seems to be standard practice for Chinese companies. I like the look of some of Onyx's ebook products, but I've refrained from being tempted as they have been in violation for ages. Unless you are a huge company there is very little you can do. There is probably very little you can do even if you are a huge company. Enforcing our laws & licences over there is nigh on impossible, and appealing to their laws is pointless as the government seems to very openly not care about such violations (some would say their attitude practically encourages such violations) unless they happen against one of their interests. This is not at all specific to open-source licences either.

My current phone is a Xiaomi, looks like my next one won't be (it may not have been anyway, due to a list of minor irritations & larger red flags like impossible to uninstall apps and a default clock app that demands full contacts access in order to be able to set an alarm, but this is definitely another point against).
