If we are pedantic all code running in a computer is numeric, but I get your point for gpu calculations for pytorch or numba, so I won't make that point :)

I would describe polars a library to work with data (https://www.pola.rs/). So we have a high-performance library in Python to work with generic data.

I think that covers a lot of cases, since you can transform arbitrary parts of a program into data. Ask any lisp fan.

Typescript is great, and the approach of having native high-performance modules works great for Python. You can offload, if you want to, a big part of your program to high-performance libraries. Maybe it is not the most elegant, but it works.

Python is not cpp, but if it fits your use-case, it can be quite performant.
I believe this is what various "stress tests" are for. If your bank is a certain size you have to basically do scenario planning for situations like ”what if 25% of your deposits leave overnight and you have to sell securities that you didn't plan to sell?” As I understand the situation, SVB was just under the required size to submit to those stress tests.
If you're going to hold until maturity, I don't see how the debt ceiling affects you significantly (any more than it would affect the entire asset market). The treasury will pay you eventually, likely within days.

If you are holding 10 year treasuries and were planning on selling them on the secondary market in July, yeah that could be very bad.

I think the argument is he's one of the only ones. The claim that SV is a hotbed of libertarians isn't backed up by facts.
Does Nix have an equivalent of docker-compose yet?

nix-shell is amazing for installing binaries, but actually wiring up and running the services doesn't seem like a solved problem.

Unless Nix expects a separate tool to do this once binaries are installed, of course.

> GPT also doesn't only respond based on examples it has already seen - that would be a markov chain

The difference between GPT and a Markov chain is that GPT is finding more interesting patterns to repeat. It's still only working with "examples it has seen": the difference is that it is "seeing" more perspectives than a Markov chain could.

It still can only repeat the content it has seen. A unique prompt will have GPT construct that repetition in a way that follows less obvious patterns: something a Markov chain cannot accomplish.

The less obvious patterns are your "higher level rules". GPT doesn't see them as "rules", though. It just sees another pattern of tokens.

I was being very specific when I said, "GPT will repeat the moves it feels to be most familiar to a given game state."

The familiarity I'm talking about here is between the game state modeled in the prompt and the game states (and progressions) in GPT's model. Familiarity is defined implicitly by every pattern GPT can see.

GPT adds the prompt itself into its training corpus, and models it. By doing so, it finds a "place" (semantically) in its model where the prompt "belongs". It then finds the most familiar pattern of game state progression when starting at that position in the model.

Because there are complex patterns that GPT has implicitly modeled, the path GPT takes through its model can be just as complex. GPT is still doing no more than blindly following a pattern, but the complexity of the pattern itself "emerges" as "behavior".

Anything else that is done to seed divergent behavior (like the temperature alteration you mentioned) is also a source of "emergent behavior". This is still not part of the behavior of GPT itself: it's the behavior of humans making more interesting input for GPT to model.

If it's AWS, they've surely got a huge discount. No way they're paying 8+x normal big-fish CDN rates for transfer. At their scale, it would have easily been worth the effort to move to something cheaper than AWS long ago, or else to negotiate a far lower rate.

Not trying to be a low-effort reply but any Economy 101 textbook will theorize that it's impossible. Practically, the world is too dependent on the USD in one way or another. If they try to break loose, they might get confronted with those military expenditures which is a good enough incentive to keep using USD as a global reserve currency.

You're absolutely right, we should have been much more upfront with the privacy/security aspect of the product and add this link to the post: https://www.nabla.com/blog/privacy-security/

I hope this link will clarify our position.

Here are additional answers related to your points.
- We do use Google Cloud to host our backend in EU or in the US but also the data for the Care Platform product. For the Copilot product, we don't host any data. They are hosted locally on the practitioner browser.
- Our T&C reserves the right to re-use data in the event we will store the data in future versions of Nabla Copilot. In any case, the reuse of data, even health data, is allowed by GDPR for the improvement of the service provided if the data controller (practitioner) authorizes us and if they have informed the patient.
- We did not say that "none of the data is sent outside the EU". Actually we say the opposite in the Copilot APD Annexe 1. We specifically mention Google and OpenAI and we comply with GDPR with a data protection agreement with both these companies.

We have more wealth in the world than ever before. The problem is that it's distributed through something like a power law curve where a tiny proportion keeps all the wealth. If we changed that wealth distribution to something closer to linear then we'd have plenty of wealth to fund welfare systems while the rich can continue with their lives of luxury.

Ask HN: What are the other websites you visit daily (2023)?
I know this has been asked before - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23118993

And many times before that — but this is a valid question three years later.

I always like to see what other people are reading daily, or see any niche sites I don't know about.

Also, any tools/readers you use to read in the morning? Which online, or desktop RSS readers? Still do RSS? Something else?
With AWS - failure means the instance is automatically retired, and your ASG causes a new instance to automatically be created and put in service without you having to do anything.

With hetzner - failure means your monitoring detected disk failure, sent you a pagerduty alert, which you then have to check the alert, figure out what has failed, and send in a support ticket to get the disk replaced. This will take a couple hours, after which you have to rebuild your RAID array, and hope no more disks fail. All the while operating with degraded performance.

(Don't get me wrong, hetzner is _great_, I've used them for years and highly recommend for numerous scenarios - but the idea that their failure and reliability is anything like "the cloud" is fanciful)

This is the cycle of MVNOs. They are selling a commodity with tight margins, are almost always dependent on a single network, and when money gets tight, they sell to the network they're dependent on.

I've never seen an MVNO do a very successful switch to another network, and if you can't switch networks, you have less negotiating power than consumers.
Brexit has a conotation as being anti-foreigner, but it actually was also a "Anti-London-Elite" campaign, who is largely behind the focus of the whole country on becoming one huge tax fraud financial haven.

Its the voters right, to try to regain control of his/her country, by rejecting those that take it for a undemocratic spin, no matter how clever that hijacking is marketed.

England suffers from a resource curse, the resource being its ex-empire and the financial connections of the comon wealth.
Especially since this so very common in the sports world - Derek Jeter and the Marlins, George W. Bush and the Rangers (back in the day), etc.

But, professional sports teams print money. Most of the infrastructure is funded by tax payers. Salary caps (this includes baseball) keep expenditures down. Fans root for laundry, so rationality is out the window. Just look at baseball, you can pull down a healthy profit while having a dog-crap team (looking at you Pirates). As long as the team is a private entity, there is zero financial incentive to put a winning team on the field. Owning a sports team is a pretty sweet deal.
Aren't most armed robberies a bluff too? "Give me your wallet or I will kill you."

Even if the robber has no intention of actually killing the victim and just wants their money, this is still very much a threat, and whether it was a bluff or not, it still causes distress and possibly trauma.
The three word slogan is incredibly powerful:

-Get Brexit done

-Take back control

Theresa May had a go with her meaningless "Brexit Means Brexit" slogan and now the current Prime Minster Rishi Sunak has "Stop the boats", which sort of proves that the "Take back control" slogan was as ridiculous as the rest of them.

But whenever you engage in a discussion about Brexit with a Brexit voter I guarantee you'll hear a 3 word slogan used as if it was an actual argument. I find conversations are more constructive if both parties agree NOT to use slogans and instead try to have an honest discussion about what they really mean instead.
> Pay is a function of value.

> A very free-market take.

I'd argue that the free-market take would be that pay is a function of supply and demand, not value. As an example, musicians provide a ton of value, but the free market dictates that they aren't paid a lot, because people who would like to make music for a living are a dime a dozen.
How did you setup the k8s cluster? Is it running on bare metal or VMs?
You can thank over-regulation for that.

In countries with socialized care, there's one employer that dictates working conditions (the state). Over-licensing means it's a hassle to port a license to another jurisdiction (to be subject to a single employer again).

In America, same issues mostly except it's not the state that employs but an organization that's given a monopoly over a region thanks to certificates of need. [0]

I'm trying to understand too so please correct me if this is wrong.

As I was able to gather it's like, you send them a camera which can only hold one picture.

Then they use this camera to scan every document they have. The trick is that this camera will only save the picture, without revealing them which one, of the record you are interested in.

When they finish scanning all the documents, they send you back the camera which now has a single picture of the document you wanted, and than only you can access.

I didn't even realize that the red/green was present until you mentioned it!

I do actually perceive it, now that you draw attention to its existence, and can tell the difference, but you are correct: thin lines are aggravating to deal with!

And it's not just the red/green issue: it's also in distinguishing them from grey when the lines are thin.

Side issue: when I was a kid, my math teacher insisted on grading using those thin BIC red pens. The problem is that it was indistinguishable from my own writing (at a glance), and it took forever to find my mistakes that were "clearly marked" by the teacher. Thin red lines are pointless to me. I guess it's a good thing that I'm naturally good at math!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phil_Zimmermann

After a report from RSA Security, who were in a licensing dispute with regard to the use of the RSA algorithm in PGP, the United States Customs Service started a criminal investigation of Zimmermann, for allegedly violating the Arms Export Control Act.[5] The United States Government had long regarded cryptographic software as a munition, and thus subject to arms trafficking export controls. At that time, PGP was considered to be impermissible ("high-strength") for export from the United States. The maximum strength allowed for legal export has since been raised and now allows PGP to be exported. The investigation lasted three years, but was finally dropped without filing charges after MIT Press published the source code of PGP

They tried to ruin the man.
Come on, 30 days notice is a walk in the park. Additionally, OP was the one complaining that changing a few URLs and eventually spinning up a new server. It's quite literally a one day or two job, unless you're at a company the size of Amazon (in which case, luckily for you, you're not the only SRE, so it's still just a few days).

> The best I can come up with, at the moment, is waiting for each organization to make some sort of announcement with one of "We've paid, don't worry", "We're migrating, here's where", or "We've applied to the open source program". And if organizations don't do that... I mean, 30 days isn't enough time to find alternatives and migrate.

This is the original comment. The best they can come up with is... do nothing and wait to see if the smoke turns into a fire ? I've seen better uses of time. 30 days is enough time to find an alternative, migrate _and_ get regular coffee breaks too.
Yes - and the more focus on “Culture War” topics by the Tories is equally ridiculous. It’s a generational failure of leadership.

As an "archiveloper" (architect who also rolls up their sleeves and develops) I advise my developers to adhere to the KISS methodology - Keep It Stupid-Simple. We take a super pragmatic approach, not worrying about what's "cool." We use Python in AWS. Why? Are solutions are all "server-less" and it became clear that Python is AWS' preferred language for server-less development, though they never explicitly say that anywhere.

KISS allows you to quickly get today's work done without creating problems you have to contend with tomorrow. Our whole goal is to get more done while creating fewer problems.
