OpenAIs moat is the primary interfaces for the world are Google, Microsoft, and Apple, and they are attached to one of those. The others will almost certainly replicate their success and we will have three primary AI interfaces, Google, Microsoft, and Apple. That’s the power of collusive monopoly as your moat.

Hi, the page doesn't load in a webkit based browser
If I could get a hefty one to use at home, and be able to do without on the rare occasions I take my laptop out of the house, it'd be a strong incentive to get one of these. I've been pondering going back to using a desktop at home since my laptop is docked most of the time and it'd be nice to have a GPU that's unreasonably power-hungry for a laptop, but I really like not having to have two separate machines.
Agreed... it's easy enough to blow away a given installed distro. I'm half surprised System76 doesn't sell these with PopOS.
Correlation doesn't mean causation. Hamsters and octopuses have outperformed hedge funds in experiments. You can outperform the market by throwing a coin to make decisions. TA has zero scientific basis and there are no proofs for any analysis TA people make.

The SSH client verifies that the host key sent by the server matches the one stored in ~/.ssh/known_hosts. If the key material or algorithm is different, the client refuses to connect. So the server can't force the client to switch from ECDSA / Ed25519 to RSA.
Most company logo's in the US are only protected by trademarks and not copyright. The U.S. Copyright Office will reject any registrations for logos that are typefaces and simple geometric shapes.

The "once a year" point goes both ways. If it's only going to be used once a year, then "juicing" (in the sense that the original article meant) is only going to give very negligible added value whichever way you look at it. The original example (mushrooms in Mario) is effective because of the frequency of the event which triggers it. If the player only heard the sound once per year, it would be irrelevant.

On the other hand, if we're talking about parts of the UI which will see regular use then I agree with the other comments about usability reduction, while also acknowledging that there are other opinions out there. The best approach with these sorts of controversial features (i.e. those which some users love and others hate) is to offer a toggle in the options with a default aimed at the non-power user.
Have you tried MDMA?
Apparently the reason nobody makes station wagons new (for the US market) is because the US has a tax on cars and there is a loophole that allows SUVs and pickup trucks to avoids it as they are classified as "light trucks". There are plenty of station wagons made for the european market (although we call them estate cars on this side of the pond).
You’re correct that this community will be salty as bitcoin reaches value milestones such as $100,000/coin. And it’s easy to fall into the trap of laughing at their misery. But it would be much much more enjoyable for me to see bitcoin “click” for them.

It takes the effort of thinking deeply about what money is, where it came from, how it’s used geo-politically, how it’s used against populations, etc. it’s a lot of effort, honestly.

But let’s not cheer on bitcoin’s USD value. The real victory is when it’s detached and we stop comparing bitcoin to garbage fiat.
Modular keyboard and QMK! It's a niche within a niche but would absolutely love an ortholinear option to the keyboard e.g. https://deskthority.net/wiki/Planck

Though would like this on a smaller laptop, 14-ish inches seem to be the sweet spot.
IIRC on ThinkPad keyboards, the 6-key navigation block (arrow keys + pgup & pgdn) has a lower baseline -- the bottom of the block is lower than the bottom of the rest of the keys on the keyboard. So it is still easy to find the arrow keys by touch, even without blank space above the left and the right arrow keys.
And Ctrl+shift+tab with the same exact hand to go the opposite direction.
Did you actually use the derivative/first-order Taylor approximation to improve search speed though? My experience is that people instinctually default to some sort of binary search.
> it supports my keystrokes

You know that there is basically a standard set, imposed by Windows in about 1986 or something and also supported in GNOME 2, MATE, Xfce, LXDE, etc etc.? I am more interested in if it supports them. I mean, I don't know what your set are, and I am not for a moment saying there's anything wrong with them, but there are standards for this stuff, used heavily by millions of blind computer users for example.

> Have you considered the possibility you are so set in your ways that you are neglecting new and useful tool?

Could be. I am a professional assessor of, and commentator on, this stuff, though.

I mainly use a desktop I switched to in 2011. :-) Before that, I changed in 2004, after a change in 2001, after a change in 1995, after a change in 1992, after one in 1989, etc. etc.

I mean I am an old pharte, fair call, but I am a reasonably adaptable one, I think. :-D

Why don't any of the screenshots show that, then?

I see 6 horizontal panels in the screenies on the homepage and Github, and one with none. From that, I don't think it's unreasonable to conclude this is not a core feature or something.
My original comment was specifically in reference to dynamic routes.

You're referring to static routes.

This is not the same as any non-React or non-Next SPA either way. A lot of them have SPA support i.e. route anything to index if there is no match. They may not have random rewrite support though.
Ask HN: How to best follow Ukraine Russian conflict?
I would like to follow this more closely but am unsure what is the best way to accurate information about it. So far, I just follow what i see in the news so when the news cycle drops this topic, i hear nothing (which seems to be the case right now which is why i am posting this).
On a related note, I never understood why people of a certain political persuasion tend to be against any mention of sexuality even towards teenagers. I've seen more than one such person say that "14 or 15 year old people shouldn't be talking about sexuality". Apparently we shouldn't ever be talking to people who have gone through or are going through puberty about sexuality.

The whole problem is that people have not properly been taught about sex, because educational institutions have for years, in different areas, been hamstrung (like with all the "abstinence-only" education in areas like the bible belt), and parents aren't the best sexual educators (because on a personal level, they don't want to even think about that sort of thing). Cue the trope of the angry father telling the daughter "you're not dating until you're 30".

The vast majority of people over the last 60 years have been taught more from some form of pornography (whether it be the stack of Playboys under Dad's bed, or the teenager screwing with the horizontal and vertical hold on their TV to try to watch Skinemax, to today's young people having access to internet porn). Some of us came out ok, but some people (depending on which porn they learned from) didn't.

The problem with education being too centralized, is that it results in a choke point for power grabs and indoctrination, if we're not careful. Perhaps sexual education should be totally independent from the rest of secondary education?

> I find the fact that I cannot post certain ideas to Reddit in my local city subreddit without getting downvoted to Oblivion and then no longer can post at all due to negative karma problematic

In this scenario, who holds the power to downvote you to oblivion? Who makes the rules about participation relative to karma?

If you said the same things in a local bar, would you find it problematic if people disagreed with you or maybe decided not to talk to you?

To find the behavior of privately moderated community groups more problematic than the behavior of bad cops - behavior that ruins or ends thousands of lives every year - seems like a major misalignment.

> Doesn’t matter what your equivalency argument is. This is problematic and opens the door to abuse.

In a discussion comparing things, equivalency always matters. The world is filled with systems, communities, and organizations that are wide open to abuse. That potential is not by itself an equalizing factor.
MNT Pocket Reform – A Technical Walkthrough
Models have trouble with discrete spaces often, partly because of the internal continuous space representations, but also in this context because the transition from the probabilities in natural language to mathematics may not be as stark as it should be.

But to make matters worse, or more muddied, 1+1=1 can be a valid mathematical statement. It simply depends upon the set and group you have, or if you're doing modular arithmetic, etc. Sometimes you're given a unital magma. So, there's still a heavy dependency on context for the problem setup, but the underlying discrete and deterministic rules that are applied to the context is less malleable than other context switches in NLP LLMs do well in (such as language styling).
Or maybe that's just at the places you've worked.
I tile windows side-by-side.

I split Vim side-by-side.

I use Tree Style Tab in Firefox and hide the horizontal tab bar. (If I’m tiling a browser beside something else, I close the tab sidebar most of the time.)

16:9 is fine, so long as you’re set up to be able to use that width.

On my 13.5″ Surface Book, I appreciated its 3:2 aspect ratio, because it was already too narrow to comfortably tile things horizontally anyway, so why not go even more in the tall direction?

On my current 15.6″ 16:9 laptop, I tile and split frequently because it’s comfortable. 16:10 would still be fine, but I do this enough that I believe I’d honestly very slightly prefer 16:9 for its extra centimetre of width (~5 columns in my terminal), even at the cost of 1.5cm of height (~2 rows).

There are advantages and disadvantages to the different ratios in different scenarios.

(Still, I do think that most people would find 16:10 a happier medium at this size. But me, I can effectively use 16:9, though I don’t think I’d want to go any wider.)
Honestly, it speaks mountains to Apple as an organisation that they did not invest all of their resources into Siri, especially when you consider how Amazon invested in Alexa etc. Everyone has long understood that the "personal assistant" represents really the pinnacle of not just what AI but the personal computer should be able to offer -- the mistake this past decade was thinking that had to do with then current ML paradigms or with these completely useless voice agents. That Apple could realise it was a dead-end and not sink much more investment/engineering resources into the tool any further than what anyone actually uses these tools for (changing song, lowering volume, etc) is outstanding.

Ultimately, I'm very reassured that it's Apple and Microsoft leading the way for personal and business AI assistants respectively. As Stratechery has emphasised, the latter not only already has all the data from most firms outside Silicon Valley, but more importantly has always adhered to and designed their software according to a computer-as-a-tool philosophy versus Google's "ML/AI will do everything for you behind the scenes"; the former has not only made a show of data security but invested massively in the hardware architectures necessary to making on-device AI a possibility. Without at all being a "fanboy", Apple is quite literally the only company I would trust my personal data to for use in a GPT-based assistant.
Teachers are paid starvation wages. Jobs that require bachelor's degrees and often extended education and certification post grad that pays $50k. Once you are in the role you are essentially forced into 60-80 hour work weeks with no OT. Plus you get to dodge bullets...

If you want to know why the quality of education in America has dipped look no further than paying teacher barely above retail workers. No knock on the folks who work retail but there is a drastic difference in level of responsibility both to the individuals in their care and society as a whole.
It's "Security Through AI Obscurity"
Why is my post flagged?
Disclaimer: I don't know if anything said in the article is true -- or not...

I do know that the article is interesting however...

Here's the thing -- I notice that a lot of posters are using the words "forward" and "backward" with respect to time, with respect to waves...

Here is my problem with those words, used in this context:

If you are one of the posters who used the words "forward" or "backward" in your posts -- I ask you to first consider a simple Sine Wave (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sine_wave).

OK, now if you used the words "forward" and/or "backward" in your post -- please explain to me the following:

Does a simple, periodic Sine Wave -- go "forwards" through time -- or "backwards"?

?

Forwards or backwards?

?

Note that I'm NOT asking about a complex information-carrying radio signal as might be emitted by a radio station or other source -- I'm asking about the simplest of simple Sine Waves -- as might be output by a frequency generator, pendulum, or other simple pure sine wave generating device...

So, is that wave moving forwards or backwards?

?

Or more specifically forwards or backwards -- in Time?

?

Forwards or backwards?

?
> the best games are made with toys

This could be a good explanation for why super smash bros melee is still popular 20 years later. Moving in the game is fun like playing with a toy. Great read!
This is a really interesting article.

One thing is doesn't mention however, is when do you want a "juiced" emotional "soulful" interaction with your computer, and when you don't.

I think it's telling that most of the examples are coming from video games, where layered emotional experiences in a different world are the whole point.

In contrast, when I'm trying to be productive with a spreadsheet or a video editor or sending an email, juice/emotion/soul is the last thing I need. I'm focusing on my task and I want my tools to get out of the way, not draw emotional attention to themselves. Which is why flat design, the ultimate "anti-juice", has been so successful.

The cat is out of the bag now. The power of transformers is real. They are smarter and more intelligent than the least 20% smart humans (my approximation), and that’s already a breakthrough right there. I’ll paraphrase Steve Yegge:

> LLMs of today are like a Harvard graduate who did shrooms 4 hours ago, and is still a little high.

Putting the statistical/probability monkey aspect aside for a minute, empirically and anecdotally, they are incredibly powerful if you can learn how to harness them through intelligent prompts.

If they appear useless or dumb to you, your prompts are the reason why. Challenge them with a little guidance. They work better that way (read up on zero shot, one shot, two shot instructions).

What is most relevant this time is that they are real (an API, a search bot, a programming buddy) and democratized - available to anyone with an email address.

More on harnessing their power: squeezing your entire context into a 8k/32k token will be challenging for most complex applications. This is where prompt engineering (manual or automated) comes in.

To help with this, some very cool applications that use embeddings and vectors will push them even further - so the context can be shared as a compact vector instead of a large corpus of text.

While this is certainly better than a traditional search box, it’s still far from a fully-autonomous AI that can function with little to no supervision.

OpenAI plug-ins are a band-aid towards that vision, but they get us even closer.

If your goal was to spend the rest of your life doing something you learn once and getting paid well for it you seriously picked the wrong industry. Engineers have been told to constantly learn new things, know multiple languages etc since the dawn of programming.

"What are these drawings? Are they just cruel jokes?"

Some of the great artists have the skill of capturing "adjacent worlds" for the lack of a better word. The works "David" and "Venus" are super-human portraits of those winged guys, while these Leonardo's works are infernal portraits. That's what gives them the eerie vibe.

"They are not really funny, for one thing. They have a despairing, even scary, power."

He adds:

"Of monstrous faces I shall say nothing because they naturally stay in the mind."

He's tacitly saying that those are visions, not drawings of something he made up.

There are other artists with this skill. A famous modern example is Giger's "alien" portrait that he saw in a dream.

Edit: as for Mona Lisa, it's a mix of the two worlds, it's like drawing a face of a real pharaoh on the body of a real lion.

If you’re at any real risk of acting on that thought, call professional help, or immediately commit yourself to professional care.

Resistant to that idea? Then you’re not seriously considering suicide, that’s just your traumatized self calling out for attention; you don’t want to die, that’s a lie, the truth is you want the pain to stop, which is a VERY different truth, but trauma doesn’t let you FEEL that subtle difference.

Well, here’s the hard part… what you feel is a lie. Whatever you feel… that’s what trauma does, it reveals that your feelings are untrustworthy, amplifying everything and forcing you into a cycle of trying to numb the feelings and then trying to have them again, leading to more and more over correction.

Stop repeating the lies trauma tells you about how you feel. You don’t actually know how you feel… that’s what trauma took away from you, you don’t get to access your feelings without a black box fucking with them and lying to you. Giving voice to those distortions, without self critique, just keeps you circling without rising.

CBT works, given time and effort. EMDR maybe works, I can’t say it’s helped for sure in any permanent way, but it’s helped bring some emotional dampening from certain triggers. Meditation helps, so does exercise and time in nature… medication might, or it might not, it definitely didn’t help me. Dogs help… they can listen without talking back… most things can’t.

Trauma sucks. I’ve been where you are now hundreds of times. I’ll be there again. Such is life… but each time I’m there for less time, and each time I’ve got more tools for getting back up off the ground and taking control of my selves again. Each time we fall, we rise again.

This too shall pass is a very helpful phrase… repeat it until it does.
