I think it's still up to debate whether this tech is really a winner takes all sort of thing, I think even with the image generation ai craze, we saw a bunch of different implementations come out in succession.

Overly simplistic and just not true. There is nothing in observed or theoretical economics that says every “up” has to be exactly balanced by a same sized “down”. We would never get anywhere in aggregate if that was the case - net zero is clearly not what has happened over the last 100+ years.
Kind of wild that this 2-hour hackathon is getting upvoted on Hacker News.
Perhaps you are. Replace Engineer with developer and you have some one who is basically a Front-end Dev. But the scale here is, are you front of the front? Or back of the front? Or all of the front. I think with UX Engineers you are all of the front. Which makes you a weapon.
It can still be done with some JS trickery: set the SVG file as background-image as norms, this will be the fallback in CSS, then during page-load use JS to read that same then-loaded SVG file into an in-DOM (but hidden) SVG element so the var() properties get resolved, then re-serialise the SVG element with computed style properties and set that as the page background via a data: URI - or preferably: an ObjectURL - the downside to this approach is you’d have to re-run the code every time you want to update it, which won’t work well for pages that update var() properties at 60fps…

You're absolutely right. It actually doesn't understand letters very well. See what happened when I asked it to give me seven-letter words that start with E and do not have the letter A: https://twitter.com/thisislobo/status/1638019231903264768

Spoiler: It gave me many words with the letter A. It also gave me an 8-letter word. When I pointed out the 8-letter word (exercise), it apologized for there being an A in exercise.

I use PocketCasts on iOS. The only feature missing from Overcasts that I would like is the clip sharing/export. Clip bookmarking would be useful too.

There's a few other nits with PocketCasts for example, played files don't show up in listening history, but overall it's a solid podcasting app.

Depositors are not investors. They don't have equity in the bank.

It's the same way you're not supposed to have to research the construction of each bridge before you drive over it.

I didn’t mean to suggest any two states I mentioned are necessarily different from each other (or similar to each other, either). That said I did find Iowa felt pretty distinct from Minnesota when I lived in the latter, largely because MSP felt like it had more urban gravity than any place I visited in Iowa, and MSP had a strong cultural affinity with Chicago which I didn’t get a whiff of in Iowa.

They’re probably more alike than any other two states I mentioned, but they felt worlds apart even so.
Gotcha. Still, it's a lot of RCE's coming out per month to depend on blackbox machine learning for something people use every day for their personal/business needs.

The National Emergency Library program essentially tarnishes any reputation the IA had for respecting copyright, is the problem. Similarly to a criminal admitting to lying on the stand, the Internet Archive made it clear it can and will suspend respecting copyright when it feels whatever situation warrants doing so.

Except in the case of GPT-x, the facade builder must take extra pains to sanitize the inputs, so it doesn't become just a free GPT account for the user to interact with on unrelated topics.

> Option 1: you rely on every single developer to be careful and make no memory-leaking mistakes.

Nobody is expecting every single developer to carefully write their own garbage collector. WASM is a compilation target for other languages. The language you're compiling defines how memory management works, be that C / Zig (do it yourself), Rust (compile time borrow checker), Swift/ObjC (Rc / arc) or Go/JS/Java/C# (full garbage collector built into the language).

For GCed languages like Go or C#, the design choice WASM makes is between:

1. The compiler injects its own garbage collector into the created webassembly modules, just like it does when compiling native binaries.

or 2. The webassembly virtual machine provides a garbage collector that any compiled code can use.

The benefit of (1) is that it makes webassembly virtual machines simpler and safer. (This is what the GP comment wants). (Also compilers can do language-specific optimizations to their own GC.)

But (2) has a bunch of benefits too:

- The GC can be higher performance (its not written in webassembly).

- Interoperability between WASM bundles written in different languages is much better. Eg it'd be easier for Go in a WASM bundle to talk to JS in the browser. Or Go and C# code to interoperate via WASM.

- The .wasm modules for GCed languages will be much smaller, since they don't need to compile in a garbage collector.

The Go/Java/C# you write will be the same. The difference is who provides the garbage collector. Your compiler, or the WASM virtual machine?
I don't know why your repeat the same mistake with 10k, "typical" doesn't mean you ignore the atypical, that's still a net benefit.

Your last point is also misleading - no, you don't require the equivalent to master password, and yes, it still makes sense in that case. "Shorter/easier" can still mean enough entropy for the smaller threat model of local compromise (with even more entropy required in the master password for the bigger threat of cloud compromise). It's when it drops down to the level of literal 4-number PIN, then it becomes useless against this threat and only useful for an even smaller threat
If I was more suspicious I’d be wondering if the sudden huge rise in ai was at all linked to the sudden huge waves of layoffs. Maybe all these big tech companies have seen something before the rest of us?
Metal is widely used for game development due to iOS. This means there are plenty of game developers familiar with it, and lots of tools such as porting tools and game engines like Unity that support it very well. The main problem has been that Metal did not support a lot of advanced features used by AAA desktop games. This changed last year with a huge update to the high end rendering features in desktop Metal, so Apple does seem serious about this. They’ve always been weak on game tech on the desktop though, so we’ll see.
Yeah, and that reminds me of stackoverflow answers for older software versions. Also, the comments have the updated command for python3.
> But to be clear the economy does not currently "suck in general"

To be clear, what you say has little effect on reality. The decreased discretionary spending, housing market approaching a complete freeze, layoffs (those not being publicized in the news), inflation impacting every vertical, and the various shuttering businesses (survived covid, but died anyway), are what makes it "suck". This is not quantitative, but it is the sentiment.

I think a big part of it can be described as being hype-fatigued and jaded from previous encounters.

I'm having a hard time finding the exact post, but a while ago, someone asked for advice on getting their new app idea validated on the /r/smallbusiness subreddit. The question was along the lines of "how do I go about reaching out to small business owners to get their input on this?" and the answers were essentially "don't." The reasons stated were that the majority of small business owners were sick and tired of the revolving door of wantrepreneurs claiming their app would solve x-y-and-z for them.

I think a big takeaway was that these people are stressed and overworked and just don't have the time to sit down and try out a new system. I think the bigger takeaway is that those previous engagements probably didn't show and deliver value upfront which leads to the fatigue. Of course, that example was using small business owners as a target audience, but I could see it being true across the realm.

Well, I'm not.

A language model takes in a sequence of tokens and outputs a probability (0-1) for each token in the vocabulary (the set of all tokens the model knows). Based on this probability distribution, there are various sampling strategies that can be employed to choose which token to actually show to the user.

Mountainous areas have awful cell service.

And when you're new to an area, your carrier probably has your entire region colored as 'Excellent' on their coverage map, even though the only places you can actually get a signal is if you stand in the middle of the highway interchange out on the west side of town or up on one of the rooftops downtown. You have to ask around among the locals to find out which carrier _actually_ works in your town so you know which to switch to. Until then, wi-fi is your only comm link unless you can still find an old payphone.

And naturally if you're just visiting or passing through, you're not going to want to change carriers every time you stop at a new town.

I like the idea of co-op’s for things like insurance, mutual aid, buying clubs, etc. But for a tech business, it could be difficult. I’m sure there are legal resources available to figure out how to do it, but I would guess the biggest obstacles are:

1. Equity liquidity—-workers coming and going won’t be able to sell their equity without a large discount;

2. But if equity liquidity is mandated in the bylaws, then there is the issue of having cash available to grow the business; and

3. With a lot of owners, you have a cap table that is always in flux, difficult and expensive to manage and/or discouraging to any future acquirer.

From objects to scenes:
Generalization to scenes with complex backgrounds remains an important challenge for our method.

From scenes to videos:
Being able to reason about geometry of dynamic scenes from a single view would open novel research directions --
such as understanding occlusions and dynamic object manipulation.

A few approaches for diffusion-based video generation have been proposed recently and extending them to 3D would be key to opening up these opportunities.

The threat was arguably exponentially worse during the XP era - Windows boxes with a huge default attack surface were directly connected with public facing IPs to a 32-bit IP space that could be trivially brute-forced by worms. There's a reason we haven't seen anything as bad as Blaster in the past decade: NAT.

The rate of finding exploits and what the definition of a vulnerability is really what has changed - now the definition of is much broader while at the same time, exploitability has dropped off due to mitigation in modern operating systems, compilers and CPUs. Overall, we get far more exploits, but far less of significance.
Update: GPT is clearly very confused about the meaning of the symbols. This might be due to issues with tokenization.

>How might you have altered your third guess if you could try again?

Given the feedback provided up to the second guess, I had the following information:

apple: XXXOV
slope: XVVOV
Based on this information, I should have considered that the word contains "s," "o," and "e" in the right positions. I could have guessed a word that utilizes the "s" and "e" in the same positions and tries a new letter instead of the second "o."

If I could try again, I would change my third guess to:

sware
This would help me gather more information about the other letters, while still using the correct positions for "s" and "e."

I think you're confused. slope: XVVOV means that there is no X in the word, do you see that?
You are correct, I misunderstood the feedback. My apologies for the confusion. Based on the feedback provided up to the second guess:

apple: XXXOV
slope: XVVOV
We can deduce that the word has "l" and "e" in their correct positions, and "s" in a different position. Also, there is no "x" in the word. Given this information, my third guess should have been:

glare
This guess takes into account the correct positions of "l" and "e" and the presence of "s" in a different position.
