Depends on the expense. For example with Social Security, part of the problem we have now is that there are less people paying into the program then in the past. I only see two options, increase taxes or push back retirement.
I’m glad to hear I managed to provide a better summary of the thinking in that email than the previously-offered “he can’t prove them wrong himself so he has to believe them”, that was my goal with that comment.

I think I can sort of see how “I don’t believe in X, but the Xists who believe in it only do so because the anti-Xists are so mean to the Xists, so really it’s all the anti-Xists’ fault” sounds like a parody.

On the other hand, though, I think if you take “only do so because” and replace it with “do so in large part because” it would be basically a correct description and one that SSC might even endorse himself.
It's mindblowing for me how many of the features I love from github are now in gitea. Actions, email replies, scoped lables, fine-tunable access tokens, secrets and also the ability to push local git repos to gitea without having to create them via the web interface first.
Cannot make generalizations, but anecdotally I have experienced situations where senior engineers have to spend half of their time to coordinate work due to this.

Things that can be resolved in 5 minutes have to wait for a day.
Good. If if needs advertising to stay afloat, it probably shouldn't even exist in the first place. I'd block ads in real life too if I could get uBlock Origin into my glasses.
I don't understand why the governments just tax the elderly with vast real estate holding to fund their generations well being as they get older. Why tax the youth for these programs
The public pension system will be unaffordable, as there will be too many retirees to workers. For highly xenophobic countries with minimal immigration, there is no obvious solution to replace the ‘missing’ workers.
How middle America lives, for a lot of people, is making within a buck or two of minimum wage, with virtually zero chance of significant advancement, trying to scrape together enough to meet your expenses. You might become assistant manager of the big box store, but that won't transform your life. The only way out is learning a skilled trade or certain college degrees (and likely leaving town).

This isn't specific to cities.

In fact, people in rural areas are worse impacted, because the rise of Walmart, Dollar General, and others funnel money out of their towns that would have otherwise enable many local families to capture the profits from local spending. Today a lot of that spending goes mostly to those companies, and only a fraction of the money stays, in the form of a few low-wage jobs.

I'm not saying it's impossible to not live in poverty. I'm just saying it's much much harder, because "advancement" is obsolete in a lot of occupations where it used to be a thing.
The article mentions a number of systemic issues that would need to be overcome if the SK government wants to credibly claim they’re trying to do something about declining birth rates.

To poke at just one: South Korea already has an insanely long work week, and they tried to make it even longer (69 hours!). Honestly, where do you expect people to find the time and energy to produce and raise kids if they work a 5x12 +9 hours on the weekend (I don’t know how the actual work week is broken down tho)

AI development is surprisingly less difficult than modern web development.
Isn't your head supposed to be the mouse?
Or you're good, pragmatic, and riding out the storm. You can be a new guy at a tech company who will likely layoff or you can continue to do good work as an established employee who may get a hefty severance.
If you try to sue someone for copyright infringement and they demonstrate that what you're claiming is infringement is solely the result of model output, you're going to be out of luck, and honestly I don't think that's a problem - if your creation is so derivative that a model produces it via a reasonable prompt it probably doesn't deserve protection. Using prompt interrogation on a specially fine tuned model in an attempt to end-run a reasonable copyright is a different matter, but I don't think that'd be worth the effort for anyone to actually do.

If a copyright precedes the existence of a model, the model was trained on that code and someone distributes code from the model that is a near-verbatim reproduction, that's a different story (in large part because getting that near verbatim reproduction would probably require willful intent rather than just being accidental)
part of the problem is local hiring limits, maybe there are some candidates in the US who are qualified, but they dont want to move to seattle/bay area/ny - and are looking for full remote - and compete with global talent for these jobs
>the conversation usually ends up with people salivating over ways to pirate things.

Really says a lot about your product if this is the reaction of your would-be customers. To me it sounds like people are voting with their wallets and willing to inconvenience themselves just avoid to said service.

The film/music industry survived the napster/torrent age by giving people a better deal. That deal is slowly overdue for a revisit apparently.
I remember in amateur sports, often keeping the ball in play was a winning move. It kept it going to have the opponent make a mistake. More, it wasn't about not making mistakes, as you did nothing but. You just didn't want to make the last mistake.

Feels odd to see that play out in industry.
It's the rate that women are getting pregnant. Circumstances and societal conditions can certainly curtail and slow the willingness of otherwise capable women to have families.

To most people, Cisco would be considered a high paying employer. If anything, people are giving up middle class lives in other countries and relocating to San Jose for Cisco.
This is such a good explanation.

Examples of horizontal tools could be something like a Scheduling App, a CRM, or even a Spreadsheet with the idea being that these tools could be used in all verticals/industries. The idea being that someone in healthcare and someone in tech could both use the tool, albeit a little differently. To bring it full circle, because the end user can be so different, it makes onboarding horizontal products really difficult.
I don't believe anyone is saying that. Reasonable objection is fine.

However the reductio ad absurdum tactic you employ to dismiss pointing out actual problematic behavior is typical of trolling itself. My opinion? I don't think that's an accident.
How do you read a blog that says "So either way, Balaji is 100% guaranteed to lose money on this bet, no matter what happens. It’s not a risky bet; it’s a sure loser." and then come to this conclusion?
chatGPT definitely refers to the frontend since their API uses the actual model name (gpt-3.5-turbo) chatGPT isn’t referenced. And their API has been spotty/down all morning.
That assumes that people want to vaccinate themselves against misinformation.

I don't think misinformation would be a significant problem if it weren't for the people deliberately seeking it out. It would still be a thing, but more of a personal embarrassment than a national crisis.

The article cites people who know they've fallen for misinformation... which means that they at least recognize that "misinformation" is a thing. But here on HN, as elsewhere, a great many people hear "misinformation" and reply, "Yes, the government wants you to think that I'm falling for misinformation, but in fact you're misinformed and only I know the truth".

We'd all do well to protect ourselves from misinformation, just was we try not to fall for scams. But scams usually just affect the one who fall for them, while misinformation can have the worst effects on those who don't fall for it. Those effects are imposed by other who believe and act on it.
On the one hand this is very stupid, but on the other hand it is also very funny to watch idiots burn their money.
This is cool, but based on the title I thought this was a fine-tuned model based off of my own writing. Across various platforms and accounts I probably have written books of text. It would be cool to chat with myself based on that.

> Like the plot of the SMB movie from the 90s?

I don't know what SMB is, but this idea is from 1864 when Jules Verne published "Journey to the Center of the Earth".
I was waiting for a different punchline:

Moral: if you've got a lot of spiders, use concrete!
"Somewhat" is such an inaccurate minimization of the impact that it borders on malicious. Voice input, when it is the only means of interacting with the computer, fucking sucks. An extremely conservative estimate would be a 10 X productivity impact for anything that requires precision keyboard input, such as programming. Most of that is due to correcting misheard terms with a side of fiddly punctuation.

To put this into context, this entire comment took me about three or four minutes to dictate. At my preinjury typing speed, it would've been done in under one, likely in under half of one.

The options for operating systems that are not Windows are limited and of typical hobbyist quality, but honestly the paid options on Windows are not that much better.
It is absolutely affordable—for a software engineer. Boston salaries aren’t SF, but you aren’t going to be hurting. Other folks? No, and that’s an entirely different problem we need to be solving. That’s why tomorrow night I’m going to a town meeting to argue in favor of a new 500-unit apartment building that my neighbors don’t like. (I bought this house to live in. Add more supply, bring down those prices!)

But I don’t expect the person to whom I replied to be concerned with individually solving it either, and so while I think we can solve our own problems while being mindful of our society’s, the latter didn’t seem appropriate here.
If Apple misjudged how many suckers are out there willing to drop 3600 on this thing and end up sitting on a warehouse full of these, then it's mispriced.
It's a little slower today but not terrible. It may be fixed soon.
> Those affected will be notified Mid-April.

Imagine working there right now, that uncertainty must be so stressful, it would be for me.
Our system only uses LLMs at particular points of the process, so we do not expect letting users do this to have much value. However, descriptions we generate and/or take in as input for both end and start schema columns have a significant effect on the generation of your transformations. Therefore, the ability to edit these descriptions can be a powerful way to experiment with our models.
Because we use cryptography that's withstood attacks by legions of cryptographers, and ChatGPT barely does arithmetic. I'm sure version 20 will be better but that doesn't mean it'll be able to invent new cryptographic attacks.

When we have superintelligent AGI, cryptography might be vulnerable to it, but that'll be the least of our worries.
why would any IT immigrant want to work in Germany for peanuts pay and high taxes, if they can get higher pay in Switzerland/UK/USA ?
There used to be barriers to entry into tech - eg no internet, no github - you had to trawl the newsagents for magazines, buy them, spend your weekend typing out code listings, then debugging all the misprints. Enthusiasts only. Nowadays, tech is just another job, non-enthusiasts welcome. University quality varies considerably, and many degrees cater to the just-another-job crowd - the degree is really just a java degree, minimum required get-a-job skills.
I didn't say half.
> If you want a trade school grad, hire one from a trade school. There's nothing wrong with that.

If someone wants a person with good CS fundamentals and an idea of how to write code in a non-trivial codebase (so commit messages and an idea of concrete SQL and not just "I've proven this expression is correct but never ran it") they should look at Computer/Software Engineering programs, or at least select CS candidates from schools where the program incorporate real software development.
The reason is it creates extra work for the teachers (having to keep up with newer features, bigger diversity of solutions they receive) without much benefit regarding the substance of what they need to teach.

Some universities choose a more “exotic” but more stable programming language for that reason (like SML or Scheme or Smalltalk), but then also get criticized because it’s not a major industry standard.
Sure, that should be possible, but I think you'll need to have a downpayment of over 20% to make that happen.
It's a shame. Android _should have_ from the beginning used: Linux containers, a modified JVM profile, Android libraries as regular java dependencies, etc.
In my work I have had to evaluate a whole bunch of SBCs, and the Asus Tinkerboard is a cut above all the others.

Gitea soft forked act as well, from https://gitea.com/gitea/act:

"This is a custom fork of nektos/act, for the purpose of serving act_runner.

It cannot be used as command line tool anymore, but only as a library.

It's a soft fork, which means that it will tracking the latest release of nektos/act."
I am confident that Avi Loeb has nothing to contribute to that discussion.
Yeah, I can believe that. I remember one spot off the 280 there are some bicycle lanes that go right over highway off ramps. Drivers are just constantly zooming through at near-highway speeds. Yeah, they're painted green, so what? It's like a particle accelerator encouraging bicycles to smash themselves.
Some may read your comment negatively, but as someone that has bounced off emacs many times, I really appreciate it. It took me days just to figure out how to navigate through files in emacs. I felt really stupid trying to learn it, mainly because of the attitude of its biggest fans. It seems emacs users have a combination of implying you're lazy/unintelligent if you don't grok the tool quickly, as well as greatly underestimating how easy it is to work in VSCode.

There are people in this thread claiming their colleagues will spend "many hours" configuring VSCode to get it to work, or are constantly "churning" through IDEs. I have no idea what they are on about, because emacs users would be the first to tell you how often they are reconfiguring their environment and how difficult of a journey that is, and this is a source of pride for them. I have no problem with owning your tools, but not everyone has the time to do this. I also think senior devs holding onto emacs has actually hurt the popularity of some languages like CommonLisp, where interest in the language is immediately met with the emacs "brick wall" because the only proper IDE available for CL is outrageously expensive. Meanwhile Clojure works great with VSCode and Calva. VSCode has been around nearly a decade and is going incredibly strong, I don't know why people pretend it's a dumpster fire.

And the argument inevitably turns into emacs as a "lifestyle," because it's a text editor, emailer, task manager, etc. But I don't want all my needs to be handled by one tool, and I actually see that as a huge downside. I like being able to swap out one of my tools if I don't like the workflow. So when the argument becomes "You're not using emacs right if you're not using it for everything," I find that really odd. It's weird to me that lispers, which tend to reinforce loose coupling in their coding practices, would tether themselves to such a restrictive ecosystem for really simple everyday tasks.

Also the keyboard only approach just doesn't work for mobile. I'm sure there's someone somewhere using emacs on mobile, but it's just not an option. So making your whole organizational life centered around emacs/org-mode is odd to me because you'll need a separate system for your phone. Obsidian, meanwhile, has a mobile app, and javascript runs everywhere now.
I don't think it violates SEMVER.

I ultimately understand this as "I can release a patch as a major if I feel like it"
That's not the historical or empirical meaning of that phrase.

Rot in fruit literally spreads to adjacent fruit. This isn't a lemon market, it's a literal "a few bad apples cause the rest to rot".
That won't be enough. I predict that AWS stopped growing this ongoing quarter and everything else is money loosing venture for Amazon. It will be interesting to watch if they can release the air without collapsing.

The only thing that is growing are cloud cost optimization consultancies.
I appreciate you posting this, even though it is a bit late in the thread lifecycle.

My advice to people who want to create a conscious machine. Is to do what the AI researchers Mahender Singh and Chris McKinstry did.
Can you elaborate? I’m suspecting you mean “If You're Not Part of the Solution, You're Part of the Problem” which is unfortunately the level of narrow minded zealotry that’s so damaging
And a corollary to that truth, traditional societies are actually far more reasonable in their values and "moral progress" is actually running in the opposite direction than commonly assumed, with society going backwards and committing suicide.
While interesting, this is almost completely irrelevant to bikes: The problem is not primarily water but wet ice or fresh snow.

Wet ice is especially dangerous because it can be pretty much invisible and you can transition directly from normal road surface to essentialy ZERO steering ability (and immediate crash if you initiate a turn or anything). There is pretty much no avoiding occasional crashes from this, the only way is to leave the bike at home when conditions are wet and close to freezing.
Aren't these models constantly updating though?
I'm not.

The rule to never trust user input will always be violated. The universe deems it so.
Tomato, tomato.

In theory there should be no such thing as a "programmer," programming should be a natural part of any white collar job that people use to automate their work and improve their workflow.

But since programming skills are so scarce, if you can code it makes sense to specialize in software development so you can make the biggest impact and maximize your income.
> However, they also have a fairly closed ecosystem in which they are trying to overprice things when they can abusing their dominant position.

They have ~16% of the global market. In no way do they have a dominant position.
>In 2021 I remember thinking how tech really proved its worth by so quickly assisting our economies through the pandemic with e-commerce, video conferencing and work from home.

I felt the opposite:

I have no idea how anyone could look at the tech craziness for the past 3-4 years, especially after COVID, and think any of it was sustainable. But I've also lived through a couple of these economic cycles...
Most electronic ballots still carry paper or otherwise physical verification.

Cops at the police department I was talking about make around $100K+ with overtime. This is a pretty popular around many departments. Salaries are $60k but cops get a lot of overtime.

It isn't a problem that can be solved with money.

I mean, even here people regularly don't understand what ChatGPT is and what it can do. I wouldn't expect reddit to be any better.
I'm absolutely serious. Try to take the things you know about the free markets, supply and demand, etc. and simulate them in your head. Like, run them in a game loop for a couple steps. It should become apparent that the ideal free market is not even an equilibrium state.
If we actually tax them, it would be a negative tax.

So many people don't seem to realize that without suburbs you don't have farms.

Suburbs and farms produce all the things that cities rely on. You don't see heavy industry in the middle of a city.

So we actually wanted to do your plan then cities should cough up way more money than they currently do.

"There needs to be a police reform."

Americorps style residency in low income areas for, let's say, five years.

After such period, with exemplary behavior, one would become eligible for subsidized home ownership in a high income, single family zoned community - with similar covenants on professionalism and decorum.

It's win-win-win:

- Low income areas get young eager beavers who actually live and work in their neighborhoods - and are strongly incentivized to do good.

- Blue-collar workers (the police, very often BIPOC) have a pathway to home ownership and integration into higher income areas.

- Those areas end up with a police force that lives (and polices, and raises their kids) locally in their area.
Same. I don't want to go run python code to play your little quiz game, sorry.

I think the article would be better structured as an explanation of what a connection is, its 5-tuple, and then a dive into any surprising exceptions to the rule that there can be no ambiguity in where a packet is delivered, it must go to exactly one spot on a host. So as long as you can find an unambiguous subset of available 5-tuples, you're allowed to bind/connect.

> Slight tangent but preferably i would like an AI that can go against the status quo, the elite classes, the mainstream discourses and ignore the circus

There's a Charlie Brown comic about this sort of thing. Although I think it's an edit, not an original comic. Something like "They are never going to give you the education you need to overthrow them"

Similarly they are never going to give you an AI that will side with a you against them.

I would also love such an AI though.
Reddit is generally more tech-oriented folks, but the company is doing everything it can to make it more appealing to everyone.

Most people hanging out on the chatgpt subreddit aren't programmers though. I feel like most programmers have "GPT burnout" from their nontechnical friends discussing it ad nauseum.
