This is magical thinking. Kudos to Volkswagen PR folks what can I say, mission accomplished.

Are you new to car concept PR shenanigans?

The limiting factor is batteries and being able to produce these things at scale. What Tesla is doing with its gigafactories and approach to batteries is something all the legacy car companies need to be doing and they need to get on that yesterday.

2024/5 is around the time Tesla will have a new range of cars and price drops and I can say this not because of blind optimism in Elon but because the physics and economics are starting to line up to enable that.

For an in-depth analysis take a look at Munro:

tl;dr - the right way to build electric cars:

In-house electronics.
In-house batteries.
In-house motors.
48v wiring.
Gigacastings.
Gigafactories.
Vertical integration.

VW, Toyota, 'etc all have engineers screaming for over a decade about all these things but other than PR fluff they are just not allowed to tackle the problem. Weird, but here we are.
Judging from https://www.fpgadeveloper.com/list-of-fpga-dev-boards-for-pc..., your best bet is one that plugs into an M.2 slot.
Unironically the best way to learn higher math is to just do more of it. The more proofs you see and understand the easier it is to deal with more complex problems and the larger arsenal you have at your disposal.

Same for code.

But the key, I think, is that you have to try new things, which also includes deliberately attempting to improve what you already have via new approaches.

Avoiding uncomfortable situations e.g. during synthesis, is not going to help you learn anything as there's nothing to learn, at best you learn to type or write faster. It has to be deliberate, and you need to be relentless in the pursuit.
Agree, it's a bit dated already due to this.

I suspect you missed the point: not "diversity", that is not what the author is blaming. He blames the cultural shift from the revenue creation to revenue management with little to no attention outside the firm, as if the prior institutionalized revenue streams are forevermore assets. The author picks "diversity" has his "economic indicator" of this systematic transition.
That is a very nice point of view, thanks for sharing it. I'll try and keep it somewhere in my mind if the dark days come :)

Observing how AI (and, let's face it, pretty much every other tool at our disposal) has been used so far, I suspect that there will be quite a few steps before we get there. First, a mad rush to use AI for just about anything, just in case it sticks. In particular:

- attempting to build addictive technologies with AI (toys? casinos? conspiracy theories? definitely porn);

- attempting to speculate with AI;

- disrupting as many existing industries as possible with AI, whether it's sustainable or not;

- also, pretend AI (look at you, Parler/Hive);

- undoubtedly, AI for cyberwar;

- and of course, any number of confidence tricks based on AI.

My hope, at this stage, is that we'll hit a sufficient number of use cases in which AI is actually useful (AI for green urban planning?) before we hit either a new AI winter (which may be prompted by some catastrophe in which AI will have played some role).

Show HN: Chainloop, A Software Supply Chain Attestation solution devs won't hate
Hi, my name is Miguel and I am very happy to share what's been months worth of work :)

The project has rough edges for sure, but any early feedback, comments or concerns are appreciated!

=== The Problem ===

You work on the Security and Operations (SecOps) team in charge of your organization's Software Supply Chain Security. You feel pretty good about the state of things already, your developer teams are signing their commits, deliverables, scanning for vulnerabilities,… Life is good!

Then you realize that you are not compliant with the latest security requirements. You get referred to slsa.dev and are told that you need to be at least level 3, whatever that means!

Aha! I “just” need to implement an attestation and artifact layer in our Software Supply Chain, which you complete after a couple of months of work.

Now to the easy part (or what you think). To make the developer teams adopt it.

You quickly realize that standardizing best practices and security requirements is very hard. Development and SecOps team dynamics are clashy and poorly defined due to priorities mismatch. Also, from the developer's point of view, it’s very time-consuming and frustrating to pollute your CI/CD systems with convoluted, error-prone and complex processes to comply with the SecOps team.

So there has to be a better way that satisfies both sides...

=== The Solution ===

Enter Chainloop. You can think of it as an API for your organization's Software Supply Chain that both parties can use to interact effectively to meet their mismatched priorities.

SecOps teams regain security compliance, visibility, standardization and control by having a mechanism to define and propagate attestation requirements. Developers, on the other hand, get jargon-free tooling that can be used to meet compliance with minimum friction and effort.

=== Give it a try ===

Eager for feedback from the community so please reach out. Happy to chat!

Thanks!

PS: You can see an attestation end-to-end demo here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_0dlBqKtIU&t=384s
Not to hijack OP's thread, but what you describe is what our end-state plan is for G-script (https://g-script.io/), the underling tooling is literally implementable as ~10 lines of Javascript (5 to implement the back-end "engine", 5 to render the front-end editor).

The idea being that any SaaS app could basically bolt it in and then add trigger events that match to their apps business events/entities and allow user to extend the core business logic with their own "Scripts".

I wish they had a system where the DM could buy up to N seats and a free "player only" client for connecting in.

Mozilla get 90% of their money from Google, 9% from advertisement, and 1% from other sources (like the paid VPN). They have no incentive to improve their browser and they keep removing features, which is probably why their browser usage share has almost disappeared.
Lets assume that current AI type models are capable of approaching the capability of human type neural networks.

So yes, AI will be very disruptive to our lives. It will start with a narrow set of capabilities, but will widen as it becomes really good within those constraints.

I think we are mostly scared about the capabilities of AI that push us to question, what is my worth then, as a human being? Do I still have worth? And, what is really the point of all this?

This “revolution” will push us to look inward and find out what and who we really are. What is really valuable? And most importantly, what is really worth struggling, fighting, striving for, in the context of the human race.

Our subjective human experience and what is valuable to us as humans, still remains out of reach for AI, and I think it will never become within reach. Because AI will never share with us the subjective human experience.

Not even a SINGLE mention of North glasses in this thread. [0] Highly likely the reason for closing this down since they already have the IP and technology.

So why would Google want to run two teams (Glass and North) in parallel when they can discontinue Glass and merge both teams into one? It would be news if they closed down their newly acquired AR glasses by North [1], but they are still in the AR glasses race.

Hum. Minds are bored out of their minds and need to simulate entire universes to stave off boredom. Also, they help puny human beings once in a while, because they're basically somewhat benevolent.

It might take us a few steps before we reach that future :)
In 2023, domain extension has little impact on SEO. It's a low value (read: close to zero) signal for ranking.

Frankly, domain name itself, at this point, is similar.

Three things to remember:

- The algorithm is just trying to be human.

- That asked, have you ever recommend content to another human based on the ext or or domain name?

- Many browers are effective hiding the domain.ext. This wouldn't happen if real human users cared.

All that said, to me .org is typically a not-for-profit entity. Instead go with .co, .io, etc.
Suggesting David Brailsford and Brian Kernighan had this oversight is pretty funny. These are two incredibly well respected computer scientists, Brian Kernighan being one of the main contributers to inventing C and Unix.
Every thought piece around the subject of generative AI starts and ends with how the tech is "exciting and scary". The sentiment is cliche to the point that going forward I'll just assume the articles were generated by a model.
Oh please. They support hardware for the iOS releases far longer than Android phone manufacturers do and they still release security updates for at least one previous release.

You really think people that like to argue online will deprive themselves from the joy of writing the message on their own?

Again, hardly transformative.

None of this is transformative either, it's just the same as the code autocomplete example.

I used c2rust to start rewriting OpenJpeg into Rust code [0].

It was easy to get the Rust code compiled and working as a drop-in-replacement for the C Library. This has been a big help with refactoring the unsafe Rust code into safe Rust (manual work). OpenJpeg has a great testsuite that has allowed testing that each refactor step doesn't add new bugs (has happened at least 3 times).

The original run of c2rust generated 96,842 lines of Rust code (about 1 year ago), now it is down to 46,873 lines code. A lot of the extra 50k lines of code were from C macros that got expanded and from constant lookup tables (C code had 10-30 values per line, Rust 1 value 1 line).

For anyone looking to use c2rust to port C code to Rust, I recommend the following:

1. Setup some automated testing if it doesn't exist already.
2. Do refactoring in small amounts, run the tests and commit the changes before doing more refactoring.
3. Use "search/replace" tools (`sed`) to help with rewriting common patterns. Make sure to follow #2 when doing this.
4. Don't re-organize the code until after most of the unsafe code has been rewritten. This will allow easier side-by-side comparison with the original C code.
5. c2rust expands macros and constants from `#define`. Being able to do side-by-side comparison of the C code will help with adding constants back in and removing expanded code with Rust macros or just normal Rust functions.

LongCOVID is a persistent viral infection. Most RNA viruses that afflict humans are persistent (like Hepatitis). Right now, zero dollars are being invested in developing the diagnostics required to detect the virus. Thus, an irrefutable test is not available. Note that SARS and MERS patients also longhauled. If you look at other species, a coronavirus (FIPV) can infect cats in a chronic fashion. In fact, Feline Infectious Peritonitis Virus is treated with the *exact* same antivirals as COVID. It is incredibly difficult to detect FIPV in cats due to irregular shedding by the virus. There are now dozens of papers that have detected SARS-CoV2 viral RNA and viral proteins in longhaulers up to 12+ months after the initial infection.

HIV initially causes a flu like illness in over half of individuals who contract the virus. These symptoms clear. The virus is still in the body and, untreated, results in AIDS and ultimately death.

"Martian colony" is a kind of future anachronism, like jet packs, jumpsuits, and this [1]. We might make it there, but a lot of this thinking is rooted in assuming humans will continue living in the same ways because of our technology and current biases.

Ask yourself why. What's the real job to be done by humans on Mars? What's the real economic situation? How does it map to human desires?

Robots will do the job even better than us and will see 10,000x the investment. Evolution follows gradients of least resistance.

CISA warns of Adobe ColdFusion bug exploited as a zero-day
> The author picks "diversity" has his "economic indicator" of this systematic transition.

.. which is an instant red flag.

They could have talked about e.g. Google's many chat apps or tendency to shut down products, or Facebook's abandoned "metaverse" project, as indicators that the company has switched from providing new ways to win revenue and serve users to new ways to spend revenue on conspicuous consumption.

Instead they rant about "diversity".

To expand on the author's metaphor, the problem with the Wild West is that some of the "building" was in fact theft, murder, and genocide; and the problem with Versailles was the incredible conspicuous consumption while failing to address the problems and starvation outside the magic castle walls, leading to an uprising of the public and middle-elites which got the entire aristocracy murdered.

The unsympathetic reaction to the SVB crisis is a hint to SV that some of the proletariat might be massing outside the walls. Their approach to "diversity", "ESG", and other social issues is the beginning of a glimmer of recognition that they have a responsibility to broader society, but combined with a very poor ability to actually listen to people they consider not as smart.

It does seem like the (misnamed because it’s not open) OpenAI is very far ahead of most other efforts, especially at the edges in areas like instruction training and output filtering.

Playing with Llama 65G gave me a sense for what the median raw effort is probably like. It seems to take a lot of work to fine tune and harness these systems and get them reliably producing useful output.

at present, my understanding is that it is purely linguistic. If you ask "what do you call the wife of a king", it will answer "queen" because that is the highest likelyhood next token. If you ask "what is 2 + 3", it will answer "5" because that is the highest likelyhood next token purely from a linguistic point of view, i.e. no math has been performed.

All the emergent properties of chatgpt being so good, is that it is very good at predicting word sequences that, when evaluated by a human, sound like it is doing all sorts of higher level logic.

Because when you're poor getting screwed out of hundreds of dollars because Karen who has the ear of legislators thinks we need to be tough on on <class of petty misdbehavior> causes a cascading problem in which you have to choose who to stiff (landlord? utilities? phone bill?) this month, who to stiff slightly less next month, etc, etc as you get back on track. It's like perverse version of that 9-square tile puzzle with one tile missing where if you make any wrong moves your standard of living gets kicked down substantially and you spend months to years getting your financial stability back to where it was.

Getting screwed out of 4-8hr of your time is much less likely to make your standard of living and financial stability slide backwards in a way that takes many months to a year to correct. Of course the majority of support for people who are in favor of anything other than the status quo comes from people who want petty stuff to be maximally life-interrupting so....

This response confuses me since goroutines and Erlang processes are really very similar to project Loom's virtual threads.
