(Assuming you're a software engineer) You are being paid to write code, don't forget that, it's a dream to many people.
I just like educating people to the fact there's more to anarchism than just throwing rocks. In fact, the throwing rocks part is entirely optional.
In what way did the depositors add pressure for the bank to be more risky? Naively, it seems like there would be zero incentive for a depositor to do that unless they were trying to chase a measly yield on deposits.
Possibly. Judging only by my own (heavily Asian) neighborhood, little white dogs gave way to (Goldens / Labs and -doodles). I can't even remember all the yellow Labs' names anymore.
This will fundamentally change the way that M365 enables collaboration. I am truly fascinated by how quickly Microsoft is moving right now, it's really impressive. The moat on AI in enterprise continues to get bigger and bigger.

> In-house electronics.

Yes and: Software stack.

(Sandy) Munro has mentioned this a few times.

I struggle to imagine other vehicle mfgs successfully making their own software.

My prediction is that one or more mfgs will adopt Apple's stack. Either thru partnership or licensing. Apple has cash to burn, so I think partnership, eg with Stellantis.

Then they'd also get access to Apple's chips.

As you surely know, legacy cars have dozens of electronic control units (ECUs), whereas Tesla has just a few chips/boards. Those ECUs use bespoke chips. And their supply was recently disrupted. Huge bummer.

Two birds, one stone.
Indeed. A very niche market, of course.
They’re getting back real buttons on the steering wheel for the id 2.
Am I the only one who dislikes these hand drawn diagrams? At least the text parts of it. Pod looks like Pool, watch* looks like watcher and rewrite looks like rent. Look at the diagrams with both print as well as hand drawn text next to each other and tell me which one is easier to scan.

Objectively, there is no argument against print text being superior to hand written in every way from legibility, density and universality. If one only happened to have a real hand drawn diagram, you can of course excuse any lack of readability, but to go out of your way and intentionally degrade digital content to the level of hand drawn should be inexcusable. This is purely style over substance and that should have no place in technical content.
Thank goodness for tab completion!

I appreciate that it auto-corrects capitalization and slash direction.
That's a slippery Sloap argument, and an absurd one. The benefits of running to the cardio vascular system are generally seen as a positive, contrary to smoking. The threshold to overdoing it is orders of magnitudes out of proportion. And there is no common opinion on psychological impairment from running, again in contrast to the psychadelica related substance abuse.
It wasn’t clearly stated but I think Tyrion Lannister was a counter-example?
Not really sure why any company would set a take home test these days. It not only sends a signal that your time as a candidate is worth less than the company's, it makes it easier to game (e.g. use ChatGPT).
It's pretty evident that Mr Steinberg is extremely conscientious
The OpenBSD people have a certain perspective on how to write secure code, which certainly is valuable, but misses low hanging fruit that aren't in their vision as a result of that perspective.

Safer languages are one of the things out of view for them.

At its best, this way of thinking about problems is invaluable because it can cure ills that otherwise affect everyone. OpenBSD has been very enthusiastic about identifying ways programs can avoid having privileges they don't need while retaining ergonomics for example. At its worst though it ignores both categorical improvements like Rust and very niche but targeted security features which don't fit OpenBSD's model like the Certificate Signing Request in PKIX (the document your Let's Encrypt software is just generating internally, once upon a time these were a big deal).

OpenBSD works very hard to enable the code signing your CSR to not need the same privileges as the code doing networking, or the code generating the keys - but it's arguably in vain because there's no need for the CSR to even be generated on the machine with the private key, they've welded a fortified cash box to the vending machine, everybody else just added a card reader. "Now nobody can steal the money!" "What money?".
I hope you have a better day.

>> For gamers, fear of Google shutting it down played a part, of course. But so did all the extremely negative coverage, from everywhere, that Stadia is dead on arrival which only reinforced that fear. Had Google actually told everyone their shutdown plan (reimburse everyone for all games), a lot of gamers would have overcome those fears.

It is a self-reinforcing vicious cycle. Stadia was yet another demonstration of how Google has developed its current reputation.

>> Technically, the platform was amazing. To this day the best UX by far of out cloud gaming platforms.

That's what is so sad. Google's tech is amazingly good, but their user support and reputation are terribly bad. Bad enough that, in many cases, it breaks the business.
Technically traits are polymorphism (and you could argue Rust's enums are too), they just look differently than in classically object-oriented languages

What Rust really skips is inheritance (although you can get partway there with trait dependencies), which I think is generally a good thing
How did he know the CEO of LoyalSnap used his code in production?
Well, the hope was that maybe the work to get the transpiled code to the state where I could do some borrow-checking might somehow be less than just having at the C itself directly, but yeah, no cigar back them at least.

And I wanted an excuse to play around with rust some more :D
Because you've never seen it makes it so it never happened?
How does your model compare to using:

(Users who upvoted a given submission / Users who saw a page that includes the submission and its vote icon)

This would be a percent between 0 (no one who saw a page containing a given submission upvoted it) and 100 (everyone who saw it upvoted it). Receiving more impressions wouldn’t change that percentage.

Weaknesses: It can only be calculated by HN itself. On pages that list lots of submissions (like the home page), it need may to compensate for relative position on the page. These pages may already randomize position enough for this not to be an issue, or to only be an issue for the first 3-5 items on the home page.
Whether or not you think a take home test is appropriate, it would be unethical of the company to let some candidates skip it. Every candidate should be evaluated the same way.
SO, iPad??
I wish they solved basic things first not working well (several times after ruining a perfectly working situation) and wasting more time for me than I can gain with this copilot thingy. Like the taskbar so I could go back to the last window used when icons are grouped, not to the last opened; meeting reminders shown in the front and not under other windows burried so I only notice when the meetings already started; Teams screen sharing is updated with Teams update and not asking me if I want to update it right in the middle of a meeting when I start sharing; have the icons in the same location across Win and Mac in Outlook (also not rearranging all the time, thanks); and uncouple taskbar icons if I want so, I want this the most. Those would be the most revolutionary inventions boosting productivity.
Humans who can write obviously as humans and not sound too GPTish are about to become very valuable. Everyone else, especially folks who naturally use a GPTish style are about to have some sudden difficulties.

She was trying to activate a lot of non crazy, ordinary people as well, but she wasn't experienced enough at the start to tone the rhetoric down.

I don’t like OPFS much more; almost less, in fact.

“It is not intended that the contents be easily user-accessible” is different from “it is intended that the contents not be easily user-accessible”, and they sure seem to be trying for the latter when they don’t need to, especially given that we know it’ll be a short matter of time until OPFS is being abused in some way.
You're right. But I think rust just hit an inflection point of exponential growth.

We are in the midst of the beginning of a paradigm shift.

So while you're right, it's hard for a developer right now to make a hard decision given the impending explosion of growth.

Climate change is probably the ultimate example of a problem that's (a) real and (b) affects everyone but (c) on a long enough timescale that it's not this generation's problem.
Don't some map makers put ghost towns or roads that don't actually exist in their own maps as a sort of fingerprinting method? Unless you actually visit that particular spot, one might not know and inadvertently copy the proprietary map data,
Your grad school project sounds very similar, yes, although we work with discrete objects rather than fluids. Fluid dynamics is much, much more complicated.

We actually use more than one neural network for this. The software is designed so the NN component is a plugin. The reason we do this is because some types of neural nets work better for some tasks than others.

Most (but not all) of our nets are convolutional.

Since you've already done some work with this sort of thing, I'm unsure about what level of overview would be of value to you, but this looks reasonable for a technically competent person who is new to the topic:

As with all neural nets, the "secret sauce" isn't the code, it's the training.
This is something I would be very interested in reading in more detail, with examples from multiple specs pointing out pitfalls or successes. Dammit I'm supposed to be working not diving down a rabbit hole.
OP here, happy to see this reached the frontpage! For those like me who always look at the comments to decide if the article is worth their time: this is about an open source package manager written in Rust, which I had the pleasure to work on during my last contract. There were a bunch of interesting technical challenges (mostly around performance), which required some creativity to solve. If you like that kind of stuff, you might enjoy reading the article ;)
I used to seriously stress out worrying about the huge amount of family photos I have saved in cloud storage and what it would mean to lose them. I've got a local backup as well of course. Even that has to be upgraded every so often to make sure the hardware will continue to run reliably.

A few years ago my (very non-technical) mother asked me to make and send her a photo album of recent pictures. My wife and I had so much fun doing it that we kept doing it. Choosing the best pictures, arranging them and making nice layouts and titles itself is a fun walk down memory lane.

Now we have a shelf with about a dozen volumes of memories and we found we are far more likely to look at these than we ever were with photos in cloud storage.

I like to think that if I lost all the digital copies, I would still be happy with what I have in these bound albums. I highly recommend this to everyone.
Take homes aren't great, they're just less bad than whiteboarding or live evaluations. I wish it was possible to judge coding ability through a resume, but you'd be amazed at how many 'senior engineers' can't write a line of code.

The best way for senior folks to get a new job is through referrals.
>Do Lego do this?

Yep. It's in the install directory under /Licenses/Licenses.docx, Appendix B, provided with the Program as required.
On the contrary, that seems more likely to be understood by a non-technical audience than any amount of decompiler output. Doesn't replace the latter, but it certainly removes a reasonable doubt.
I reported an issue with Citymapper not handling a loop bus route properly in 2018. Haven't used it since, they never fixed it.
LOL I wondered if my printer was going be the one mentioned, and it was CLOSE!

They mention the Brother HL-L2305W.

I purchased the Brother HL-L2360DW used (opened/returned) on Amazon in 2016 for $75 (+$18 shipping).

For years, I used the USB mode to attach to my Airport Extreme to give it network accessibility.

Now I use the network cable attached directly to my Synology Router.

Baikal is kind of a political project to start with.

They were already sanctioned by the Obama admin because they were "associated with military procurement activities, including the development of computer systems for military end-users and the production of computers for nuclear research". That was rescinded a year later. Now it's back for reasons that should be obvious.

You can ignore what's going on in the world and say that open source is completely detached from that, or you can say you're not comfterable going out of your way to include support for Russian processors for Russian arms. Clearly there is some point at which you can't ignore politics: few people would claim IBM did nothing wrong selling the Nazi regime equipment.
It is also impressive how slow they deliver the option of ungrouping taskbar icons, which is requested by masses for years now, and actually worked before. I know, I know, that is a much harder poblem than AI. Maybe they need to improve AI much more first so it could have superhuman powers, solving the task bar ungrouping problem finally for the humanity.
Right, and so do many sentences produced by LLMs. I don't think that's the bar anyone is using for originality.

Ask HN: What to ask to a person you admire?

Last thing I printed was a bunch of clues for a scavenger hunt, before that it was Christmas cards.

I don't think I've ever printed a receipt, map(Aside from watching family print directions in the MapQuest era, but now we have phones), or warranty.

The only documents I ever print are remnants of some legacy process that can't be done some other way. I think one time I was emailed a contract, printed, and signed it, but I don't remember why we thought that was the most convenient way to do things.

I've probably scanned more diagrams and manuals than I've printed over the years.

For a business owner I totally get it, for a consumer, screens have replaced most documents.
PatheticAI, this is like IBM Watson all over, just that if you try exposing the raw API to your customers you really can't guard against jailbreaks/guardrails.
I tend to agree for a very specific niche of game development: AAA games. But for everything else (e.g. mobile and indie games), C# usage most likely dwarfs C++ just because Unity is so much more popular than any other engine in those specific 'niches', and there are a lot more mobile and indie games than AAA games.

In the end it's all about engines and libraries, and engines usually dictate the language.
And to add to this: The Netherlands is currently a huge meat producers while being a relatively small country with very high population density. In fact, 75% of dutch meat production is exported. This has therefore nothing to do with compromising Dutch food security and everything to do with Large cattle feed producers in the Netherlands fighting (with a lot of money and donations I might add) to not loose a very lucrative market.

Unfortunately from a public perception perspective they have a very easy and convincing story to tell: the story of the hardworking dutch farmer working day and night to put food on the table of Dutch society!
Your "deep question" fails to address gspencley's point: If everything we do is a rearrangement of basic known parts, where and when did we get the basic known parts? From cavemen? From apes? From protozoa? Someone, at some time came up with the basic known parts.

So, was that real creativity, or not? If not, why not? If the parts are really "basic", they didn't come from other, pre-existing parts.

And if it was real creativity, why is it impossible for us to do the same?
It’s perfect for Aussie-Americans- they can give the forks and TWO middle fingers simultaneously!
It's interesting to compare the screenshot here with the one in Google's similar announcement:

They look strikingly similar. Is it just the obvious design for this, or is one company following the other's design? (I believe neither of them have actually shipped anything yet, though I'm not sure.)

I have a Honda Fit, and in my (urban) area it's a super-common car. It's great! It's cheap, apparently pretty reliable, fits well into streets, and has a surprisingly large amount of cargo space when needed.

It's why it's annoying that Honda decided to stop selling them in the US 3 years ago: https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a33337398/honda-fit-discon...

Since they cite slow sales, it's probably a good lesson in how one's own situation can't be generalized too well. Based on what I see in my own area I'd have assumed they were selling like hotcakes, but presumably the suburban market is sufficiently larger and obsessed with vast SUVs to make that irrelevant.
From HN, sure.

But I bet most people who peruse the `rs` top-domain are Serbs and Rustaceans.
There will probably be no “real texts”, just key facts. Your personal AI can phrase the content to your taste based on the context.

That might be possible for soemthing that "only" writes and distributes software (that can also work on levels of success much less stellar than sqlite), but when you try to pull off hosting services at internet scale like docker hub did, with some free tiers, it's just not feasible to include it all in the bills of user subset that is actually willing and able to pay. The playbook is always the same: "maybe we could do that high impact free tier if we had more funding?" and that "whatever it is they're trying to be" is an implicit consequence of that, that ambition comes with the funding. "just a small company" mean bootstrapped, and bulk hosting like docker hub would simply not happen.
It was my understanding that the threats towards Kaag, Rutte and her all came from the same source.

I've been thinking about this a lot recently: how the "business mind" works.

The notions of:

- "maximising shareholder value"

- wanting forever-growth

- laying off 10K of your staff because you got a slightly smaller 11-digit number profit that your "projected" 11-digit number profit [0] while the CEO made $55m

...just seems to me like... corporate greed?

I'm a big proponent of the worker collective [1], and wanting everyone to share in the spoils, everyone having a vote. I've seen examples of collectives being very successful.

Why doesn't everyone do it, though? Is it because worker collectives can't reach that critical mass of money to branch out into new products and ventures? That begs another question: does every company need to be an Acme corp? Does every company need to be a virus that takes over the world, then lay off staff and build inferior products for even more profit once they've cornered a market?

I don't know - I'm sure I'll never be a "good businessman", but something about the way corporations are set up today is very off.

So, to get back to your point: yes, probably - "they have no interest in tech & design", and fuck art and user value if it gets in the way of some KPI, right?

>>I don't know if adulterated weed is a thing, though.

From conversations around purchasing a portable freezer (to store prepreg carbon fiber rolls for my shop), from someone who turned out to be in the legal weed business (processing & drying operations between growers and sales outlets), he told me that in the non-legal supply chain there is an insane amount of adultering weed with some really nasty stuff. Some of it is in the dealer chain to make make crappy weed "better", including adding Fentanyl, and some of it is from counter-drug operations spraying herbicides that are highly toxic but not necessarily 100% effective, so survive into the remaining harvest. Seems that is mostly filtered out for the legal supply chain.

It was enough of a caution that if I were to resume partaking (haven't in decades) I'd definitely want to use a proper store, and really just get some seeds and grow my own - the only true quality control.

Edit: clarity
Though be fair the last time I tried it, it was brand new and just barely successful at transpiling at all. Little to no work of the type detailed in TFA had been done at all.

Actually reading down those vulnerabilities makes me as confident as ever in it; it has a steady stream of vulnerabilities, but they're almost always things like user enumeration, or a person who already has legitimate access being able to get slightly different access than they were supposed to have. Don't get me wrong, those are still bad, but if you have to go back 20 years to find an actual remote access vulnerability, then I'd say the software is rock solid.
Exactly. If they abuse you during the hiring process, they will probably abuse you after they hire you.

And yes, this is abuse. Demanding meaningless work, for free, for the chance to get hired? Because you can't figure out how to interview in a way that allows you to judge competence? Yeah, I think it's fair to call that abuse. At least exploitation.
