And T-bonds are the riskiest that those regulations allow for.

One can say that maybe our regulations should be tighter. But I'm not sure if we can solve the "banks taking risks that are inappropriate for their own damn survival" problem. Its clear that there will be a bank that's too stupid to figure out and hedge its own risks here on out.

If we regulate with lists of "these are safe" and "those are not safe" piles, they'll still figure out how to buy the "riskest of the safe pile", and get into trouble.

--------

Case in point: if they bought T-Bills instead, they would have been safe. But no, they wanted the higher risk T-Bonds.
At that end it competes against compiling your graphic directly to source code, eg

US companies have been doing the same thing all over the world. Outside the west, everyone can see the hypocrisy. Ban it by all means, but you will become just like China: a state that censors information and speech from its citizens because the government is scared of it.
If one set of countries is lowering what they are doing, and another set of countries is increasing what they are doing, is that exactly equal in your eyes?
(1) Frustrating, but surmountable for the time being, what with OPT, LLaMA. Market structure at this early stage may lead to something odd like Springer, Elsevier, Oxford, or Wiley getting in the mix since the weight of Google has been crushing publishing everything for the past few decades. And offerings in this space are paltry, see Microsoft's BioGPT for example (not regarding it's efficacy, since I'm not even qualified to comment but rather that it's a tiny team, and isn't really even a product).

There is nothing fundamentally wrong with doing it for the money.

However, for many people who are only in it for the money and do the minimum necessary additional exploration in the domain - if they find that they need to switch technologies or domains they may not have practiced enough to be able to make that switch in a timely manner.

On the other hand, people who continue to explore outside of the "this is what is needed to do my job" will be more likely able to adapt to a new stack or show to a interview panel that they are able to change to fit the needs of the organization.
Yeah, that's the one. Thanks for that! I hadn't actually seen the film, only the clip. My memory was vague on it.
Or have it open before you visit the page. Assuming they are detecting a resize.

But if they really detect a resize, anyone who actually does resize their page will be blocked as well.

Doing that seems a bit insane to me.
It depends how old you are, how senior you are, and how likely you are to switch companies in a shitty situation. It works for a specific (perhaps more stable) archetype of engineering hire for sure!
> life without kids is seen as undesirable relative to a life with kids

This is a hard one to solve. Some modern westerners see child free life as good and fill their lives with other time sinks that children would otherwise fill.

But I don't think you can lay the child free lifestyle blame all at the costs of having children.

Poor people, religious groups (Mormons, Muslims, etc.), and immigrants who come to western countries all seem to have no problems having children.

Even the Koreans mentioned in the article have huge families when moving overseas.
Make it open in a separate window.
There's lots to elaborate. Tl;dr is toxic siloed teams, bad management, and even worse management above those managers. Plus, since the Amazon acquisition, Twitch has been bleeding talent.
While it's most probably true, I think putting all the blame on the greedy VCs seems to be ignoring an elephant in the room. When SVB made those investments in treasury bonds, everyone were busy pretending that inflation was 'transitory', from lowest to highest. The few voices warning about were considered to be overtly cautious. SVB's fall, while most probably just exposed existing faults in it's management, is also partly due to volatile policies. Ignoring that just makes it more likely we will see the same things happen again and again.
Yeah, I've heard the same from other people who have been around the block much longer than I have. On the other hand, something about AI just feels like it could be disruptive in the same way that the printing press got rid of typesetters and cars got rid of horse carriages.
Ask HN: Do any know of a way to download gpg1 versions, without building source
I need to roll gpg@1.4.23 into a docker container. The only routes to getting that version seem to be source code mirrors. My plan is to push to docker hub an image based on my target os with got bill from source, and then do a multistage build and copy it over. Can any think of a better approach?

Thanks
The amount of people who knew how to run on-prem hardware even 50 years ago was fleetingly small, we have literal schools and training pipelines to skill people to run on-prem systems. The salaries offered are enough of a carrot to attract a sizeable workforce that pays for most of the cost of this education. Paying this workforce is not a sufficient burden to make on-prem non-viable.

I've been hearing this "Cloud will DESTROY on-prem because on-prem skills don't exist and standardised cloud technologies make it easy to hire from anywhere across the world!" narrative for years which seems to deny the reality that we managed to train people to run datacenters just fine for decades even if people are snobbish about the riff-raff running things these days. Larger companies long ago figured out they could work with schools to develop a mutually beneficial training and employment pipeline. A lot of managers seem to be too lazy to do such things and find it easy to simply delude themselves into thinking cloud is always the best choice instead of contemplating doing hard work like that.
Agreed. IMO Capital and state are one and the same.
I'm surprised Matt Levine would write a somewhat clickbaity title.

If the net equity value of Credit Suisse was very low or perhaps even negative, depending on the accounting, then UBS in fact paid quite a high price because of all the liabilities.

> I suspect it's some combination of incredibly brittle codebases that cease to build if glanced at the wrong way and aversion to spending anything on games post-release.

The primary reason is that there's no money in it. Like movies, your "one shot" game (without some sort of continuous billing e.g. mmo, subscription, continuous stream of DLCs) makes most of its revenue in the first few weeks, and once the kinks are ironed out what it makes afterwards doesn't really depend on maintenance.

Additional maintenance doesn't pay for itself, the producer doesn't pay the devs for that, and thus the devs take on the next contract to pay the bills. Not to mention additional maintenance is a risk.
You can print debug messages to the console to warn people. The website has no idea if they opened it or not.

What is "proto" in your tuple? If we're talking about TCP, then it's always TCP, isn't it?

I think that formulation was invented to explain the fact that TCP and UDP can have distinct otherwise identical sockets, but i don't think it's a great way to do that. TCP and UDP just have completely separate spaces of socket addresses, the same way TCP and NetBIOS or TCP and UNIX domain sockets do.
It seems like the kind of thing a small number of people would be interested in, but they'd be happy to spend a lot if it actually works.

You seem mostly ignorant about what city life is like

I have lived in NYC, Philadelphia, Minneapolis, Toronto, London, Tampa, and San Francisco. The downtown parts, not their burbs. I think that qualifies me to have an opinion about city living.

This is ignorant, tbh. Elementary and middle school students take the subway to school alone, all the time.

Some places, sure. Others you can get arrested for that:

https://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/single-dad-barred-from-sending...

Sure there are great public schools, but... the great ones are generally competitive admissions drawing from wide areas. The number 1 school being:

Students from Fairfax, Arlington, Loudoun, and Prince William counties and from the Cities of Fairfax and Falls Church are eligible for admission.[32] Students must be enrolled in Algebra 1 or a higher level math class in 8th grade and have a minimum GPA of 3.5 to be eligible

While that school might technically qualify as public, the admissions process looks like a private school to me.

When I say "public school", I'm talking about the school that your kid is going to go to "by default" outside of any kind of lottery system. I can assure you that in Philly that meant craptacular. Despite the reputation of Masterman the only Philly school in your top 150. Their enrolment is hyper competitive. Masterman's acceptance rate is 3% of applicants making it more selective than Harvard University.

I do agree that rural schools are not universally great or even good. Ours happens to be and we selected for that. I would say that understanding the community's expectations for post graduation are key. If the community does not expect the vast majority of high school graduate to go to 4 year college then the local school system priorities are likely to align with that expectation and that is important to understand.

I understand we are all attempting to help the OP. You were the one that introduced the spurious points about resource dependencies, the flow of social security checks and reallocation of school funding. All these seem to having nothing to do with city vs urban living and in my opinion apply more to city living than rural living. In fact New York State had to be sued to properly fund NYC public schools.
I live in California and most of my friends are fairly nerdy. Some work in tech, some do not. Most have not even tried VR period.

The Metaverse I am convinced is pretty dumb unless we can make it significantly more immersive - as in adding sense of touch or other senses.
I had to use their silly drag-and-drop email builder because I'm handing the email off to be edited by a non-dev. I dropped in a "Code" module so I could add some custom CSS but because a style tag generates no space, that module is no longer accessible via the UI as there's nothing to click on. So I thought oh brother I'll just inject a couple br tags via the Inspector and then poof, I'm in the doghouse.
Techcrunch is Tigerbeat of our times. Make news when there is no news.
That was my immediate thought too.

How do we know that those were not hallucinated by GPT?

Because they look real? Isn't that exactly what GPT is good at, hallucinating output that looks real?
I feel like the cloud backlash has been begun-ing since I heard of cloud, just like the container backlash has been begun-ing since containers became popular, I also fondly remember the systemd backlash, that was awesome. Personally, I'm still waiting for the object-oriented backlash that started begun-ing before the others to finish begun-ing.
Those features are being released to please a larger set of people. People were relying on 3rd party libraries anyway for similar capabilities.
There is a lot of work going into hand tracking and natural interactions these days. People seem to feel much better and more immersed when they can use their hands to manipulate virtual objects.

Oculus has this very neat trick with their controllers. Most of the buttons and sticks have some type of sensor that detects if you're touching it, even lightly. They use that information to alter the pose of the virtual hand. When the controllers are visible, your virtual fingers mostly match where your real ones are on the controller.

At least one company builds unique user profiles that make your virtual hands the same size and skin tone as your physical hands, as well as adjusting for height and other parameters. Personally I find it gimmicky, but some people like it.

Unfortunately, the technology isn't quite robust enough that we can fully get rid of controllers. Ultraleap is working on a system with multiple 3D IR cameras to track hands from multiple perspectives. I think this is the most likely path forward. There's some really crazy alternatives like strapping dozens of electrodes to the forearm to record muscle impulses that get fed to an ML model which extrapolates hand and finger movement.

You're right, there's a lot of fundamental problems we have to work around, and it's far from easy. Even with Facebook's ridiculous resources, the oculus hand tracking is hot wet garbage for anything even slightly abnormal, like wearing a jacket.

But, the industry as a whole is really picking up steam. It won't be too much longer before we solve most of the big problems.

Well why use jq? you could decompose that into standard unix commands as well :)

The main itch I wanted to scratch for my own exploration with chatgpt was that I found myself doing a lot of curl requests, and then after a few iterations I would come up with one that worked well. The next step was to reproduce that last result (without ideally hitting the openai servers again) and I wanted to pipe it to the next part of my chain.

This project kind of grew out of that. Every time I had more than 2 pipes I created a new "ease of life" parameter.

Although it is possible (and likely) that your working memory is far greater than mine to come up with a command like that.

Then they are slaves to the customers. Post something the customer doesn't like? Customer leaves and the site loses money. Incentive is for the content to become family friendly low detail low effort lowest-common-denominator because that appeals to largest range of potential customers.

> "Sites like YouTube are a perfect example of this. Constant censorship and other nonsense because many of their advertisers are American, and thus 'prude as fuck' (lack of a better term). So content on YouTube has slowly been becoming more and more squeaky clean (advertiser friendly)."

You think YouTube could skip the advertisers, sell directly to soccer moms, and then have porn adverts and swearing and raise their middle finger, and that would work?
I don't think that Invisible Cities usefully reduces down to "talking about a specific city". It talks all about cities, how people live in them, see them from the outside, etc. To say that it's just "all about Venice"—like the back of the book does—flattens the book in a way that takes away everything interesting about it.

Or maybe better put: it's clearly not literally all about Venice, since the cities as described do not (and can not) exist. So why make it figuratively all about Venice?
Good luck moving back to full on-premises. I think that in the last 10 years some people forgot how many problems you can have when you self manage a dc, or when you just “rent a couple of servers from somebody”.

Sure, hybrid approaches do work; keep your main infra in the cloud and supplement it with some cattle rented servers (that can fail with no prod impact) to handle predictable workloads.

But think it very thoroughly before getting fully back to “on my premises”. You’ll discover a world that you never knew it existed.
Sometimes a cron job on an ec2 or server is all you need. Not everything needs to be so complicated.

Lol "nation states"? You can definitely prune these models and fine tune them to fit on your smartphone today. The compute required is more like high 6/low 7 figure levels of compute, a rounding error for every Fortune 1000 company.

In fact, if we're so convinced this particular LLM is so great, we should just be chopping it up into fit for purpose agents.
> It's a map.

One that appears to not answer the question I posed, or answer it in the negative (as in, they're not modeling realistic agricultural adaptations).

> It's litterally [sic] showing the changes by areas.

Apparently only "in currently cultivated areas." It's hard to get worked up over the predictions of a model that basically assumes everyone continues to do the exact same stuff while everything else changes, even if that would mean individuals fail to meet their short-term goals.

It wouldn't have been hard to depict the area under cultivation creeping further north (or the area under cultivation receding in other areas).

> Potentially the full volume will include other crops yields and more details that you are hoping for.

Those are not the details I'm looking for. It would be closer to what I'm looking for if they took that data, divided the world into plots, then for each scenario picked the highest yielding crop for that plot, to come up with an overall agricultural productivity estimate. I say that's only closer, because it presumably wouldn't reflect other reasonable and straightforward agricultural adaptations.
I'm no expert, but I'm amazed how much server you can get for little money from a discount provider like Hetzner vs AWS. There's a large gulf between fully on-prem and using Azure/AWS that doesn't have the same personnel requirements. If business apps can be self-hosted on a dedicated box that's maintained by someone else, it's potentially a huge savings. At least, that's been my experience.
Yeah, but The Netherlands isn't Cambridge, UK.

For one, The Netherlands has great cycling infrastructure, at least places where I've been: Cambridge, UK doesn't.

Again, from what I've seen, cyclists in The Netherlands tend to behave quite a bit better than they do here in the UK (drivers too, for that matter).

Moreover, what condition is the infrastructure in? I don't know about The Netherlands but I can tell you that in Cambridge, UK, it's littered with potholes, and often to some extent multi-modal.

You can't just forklift an insight about cycling in The Netherlands and expect things to work the same somewhere else without making a whole load of stuff happen beyond just encouraging lots more people to cycle if you want to actually make it safer. In Cambridge, UK, we need both solid investment and cultural change (both cyclists and, yes, motorists too) for cycling to become a safer option.

Am I being clear enough for you now?

I see posts like this comparing past attempts, and in this article even 1990s Homestead, and I immediately think this person does not get it.

Additionally all the statements that follow along the lines of "GPT today has a hard time with xyz" are all problematic too. Today is not tomorrow, and what it can do tomorrow is what we should be talking about.

The fact is in just 3 months we've gone from fairly basic code reviews to super helpful code reviews with code examples and intelligent code contextual comments.

Comparing GPT to Homestead or any number of early attempts to translate mockup to HTML+JS is unhelpful. This is wildly different technology. Talking about what GPT can do today and landing at "it's not good enough" is also missing the point, we are nowhere near the limits of this tech and it's evolving so fast that these assessments are not insightful in the slightest.

Talking about GPT as being merely a probability evaluator is also demonstrating the authors limited insight. WE ARE ALL probability evaluators. Humans work on prior experience, employ heuristics to make decisions based on that. GPT, indeed all AI, is more or less based on that paradigm. The difference is an AI can hold the whole of its learning in a perfectly memorized model. It doesn't forget what's in that model and can draw on billions of data points to make its probabilistic determinations. We pull on bias, false memories, misunderstandings, and so on. Now, that's not to say AIs won't also be afflicted by these comprehension errors, but that just doubles down on AI doing what humans do which is astounding either way.

Jobs are going to be lost, it's a fact. Even if it's just that junior who was learning code reviews and supporting basic development, that job will be around for maybe a year or two at the rate we are moving.
Love the idea that a bunch of managers who failed to control their cloud spend are now blaming the cloud for their failure to control costs. The problem isn't the cloud it's that they are just wantonly spending money without the proper controls / cost containment. In 5 years once they've figured out to do that properly they'll be migrating stuff back to the cloud, because all they are doing by migrating out of the cloud is converting the cloud spend costs into paying for more personnel to manage or develop features they would otherwise get for free in the cloud.
> folks use the language of objective reality, science, and nature, as a political cuddle

Did you mean "political cudgel"?

I agree people in power always have a collection of "facts" they pull out to "prove" things. Public arbiters of conversation (op-ed columnists, bloggers, etc.) ought to call those into question as a matter of routine.
