How much faster does it need to be? I have some complaints about FF, but not on the account of speed. I don't care about microbenchmarks, for me it works fast enough to not notice any lag.

Besides, I really don't care how fast it it when displaying ads and tracking me. I'd prefer not to see them, thank you very much.

>Do you know that Ubuntu's number one issue in their bug tracker is "Microsoft has a monopoly on the desktop market"? Plenty of people have to use Windows at work

Funny, I had to use Ubuntu 22.04 at my previous backend job and hated every minute of it thanks to snap, gnome, apt, wayland, hibernate, touchpad, and other issues that made me pull my hair out and loose several work hours in tinkering just to attempt to fix them so I can be productive at work. Maybe I was also horribly unlucky, who knows, but IMHO Ubuntu has went from the go-to to being the worst possible Linux distro. I was daily driving Ubuntu 10.XX in college and it wasn't this bad.

I get Canonical wants Ubuntu as the competitor for Windows, and they can can cry "wagh! Microsoft monopoly! wagh!" as much as they want, but Ubuntu aint it chief. Linux Mint and others could do it better if they had Canonical's pockets.

Similar for Firefox. Basic stuff that's standard in Chrome and Edge, like translation (I live in an EU country who's language I don't fully master) or spell-check, need to be downloaded as extensions/plugins in Firefox, and separate for each language, and the end quality of the Firefox spellcheck still sucks majorly compared to what Chrome has out of the box.

I get it, we should support Ubuntu and Firefox because freedom and all that, but I can't when the quality of the products and consumer experience is abysmal compared to the paid competition.

There’s a little known feature to enable circular references in Excel. This gives you iterators and recursion.

There are also named references in Excel which the article overlooks in its comparison to “true” programming languages.
I disagree, I use it all the time for things I don't know about. I then feed those discoveries into semanticscholar, scholar.google.com, wikipeida, libgen.is, etc.

I then ask it so summarize and ELI15. If ChatGPT is feeding you bogus knowledge then you are already consuming bogus knowledge over your existing channels. If you aren't including feedback into your understanding you are recording, not learning.

This is going to be an awesome way to optimize Zapier usage. I'm not a huge AI guy but love the idea of sprinkling a little on top of my existing zaps to make them even more useful!

For example I have a zap right now that every time I react in slack with :todoist: it adds it to my TODO backlog. If I can use AI to read that thread and put a summary in there that'll make me more productive.
SWE?

Thanks!
Thanks, that's good to hear. I haven't got much exposure to programming as a career other than a week's work experience at MS, so I think I've overestimated how much it can automate. I personally haven't used it much when programming, though I've used copilot since release as the reduced typing massively helps my RSI.

Too much logic required here. Change to "...guess five letter word Where e is the first letter. Do it again where e is the second letter." And so on.
I think it depends on the type of project. I found the out of box experience to be super easy with Arduino. You install the IDE, plugin the board via USB and can start writing code right away.

As a full stack web developer, I am always finding myself getting bogged down in activities to support the work of development (managing dependencies, deployments, builds, etc). I don't enjoy that part of being a developer.

The experience of being able to write a few lines of C code and have stuff happen right away is very pleasant and a breath of fresh air. Unless it's necessary, I would rather not complicate things by having to deal with an OS and everything that entails.

You can get an ESP32 (Seeed Studio Xaio) Arduino-compatible board for $5 from Digikey. Incredibly cheap for hobby-scale projects!
but it explicitly says no restrictions can be placed on what you do with the code, so it is entirely correct to say it's a "right to do X" snowclone-license.
It does, but people won’t support the simple and immediate fix for this problem (severe taxes on rental properties).
Seems that Powell had two options, one was to stop raising rates/cut rates despite the already high inflation, which would of course increase inflation further. Or he could do this to get inflation down to his target range... which will drive assets and the economy further into a hole. Neither of which is a good option to the public eye. Not apologizing for Powell at all though, since he and the Fed have been making terrible decisions for the last 10 years and has directly led us to this point. They've just run out of easy choices.
This is especially interesting given the market had priced in Powell making rate cuts.
So the endorsement had not only no positive benefit, but a markedly negative one? And they still are going to continue to do it?
I believe that they tended to hand it out for free or very inexpensive to students, substantial trial offerings to new/small businesses, etc.
The IRA raised corporate taxes, which is a very effective means of fighting inflation.

The CBO called out the IRA for being ineffective because the IRA only reduced the deficit by a few hundred billion dollars, when trillions in relief were needed.

Sure, trillions of dollars in increased taxes would have killed the economy, but interest rate rises are also killing the economy.
Agree with other comments. LLM will make it possible for programmers to automate even more things. LLM cannot write itself; that is hyperbole.

In practical terms, LLM will open more doors for programmers. Not less.

I've been following their move to on premise with interest and this was a great read. I'm curious how they are wiring up GitHub actions with their on premise deployment. How are they doing this?

The best I can think of for my own project is to run one of the self hosted GitHub actions runners on the same machine which could then run an action to trigger running the latest docker image.

Without something like that you miss the nice instant push model cloud gives you and you have to use the pull model of polling some service regularly for newer versions.
My personal benchmark of "rich" has long been to have enough money to quit working. However, it's clear that this is all relative. To my mom, making $50k in a single year was a life-long milestone that she only passed towards the end of her career. She would certainly have seen someone who made $300k/yr and had $1M in the bank as "rich", even if that would not meet my benchmark.
Conflict perceptions motivate the belief in misinformation about the adversary
I've tried so many times to bet ("invest") on what the Fed "should do" and been wrong that I'm not believing it again. Interest rates to 0 in 1 year.
Such a metric is clearly useless if you cannot tell otherwise.

I am very frustrated by the way this article repeatedly asks chatgpt to guess if something is a bot, gets told “well, we can’t know for sure but this is at least the sign of a crappy bot or human behavior” and then the author says “Aha! But a human could act like a crappy bot or a you could train a bot to mimic this exact behavior”.

Well yeah. No shit.

WebApplicationBuilder itself is mostly the base .NET Generic Host [1] (which is "bare" .NET and is used as a common host for dependency injection plus common utilities such as configuration and logging) plus activating the Kestrel hooks for HTTP middleware. Kestrel even at its most "raw" is always slightly higher-level and closer to Flask or Express (JS) as a middleware-focused HTTP execution engine.

(This partly reflects the classic HTTP.SYS role in IIS/Windows as well, because Window's HTTP.SYS is surprisingly high level for a "raw" kernel component for hosting web servers. From my understanding, most of "Kestrel" under-the-hood is just a cross-platform semi-recreation of the HTTP.SYS abstraction machine on top of things like but maybe not exactly libuv/ioring. So yes, everything is "naturally" higher level in .NET than Python's lowest level just because it assumes a higher-level "OS server" base.)

Also, yes, the boundary between "Kestrel" and ASP.NET is really hard to define at this point. Almost all of ASP.NET is just "Express-style" (though much of these middleware patterns in ASP.NET I believe predate Express) middleware that is cumulatively stacked on top of each other as you add more high-level ASP.NET features, and at this point all of them are just about optional depending on what you are looking to do.

Even many alternatives to ASP.NET at this point are built on top of the core basics like WebApplicationBuilder, they just diverge at which sets of middleware stack on top of that.

As others point out the recently expanded "Minimal APIs" experience is most tuned for "Flask-like" out-of-the-box behavior: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/fundamentals/m...

That's as low level as it gets in .NET, but not so much because of "strong coupling" but because "everything is middleware" in .NET.

Sorry for being late in reading your response, but yes I agree that those dystopian scenarios are not outside of the realm of possibility. As I said before, what makes the moon unique is that every photo of the full moon is essentially the same image from the same angle, whereas a photo of a Coke can is going to be from all different angles, sides, lighting conditions, even sizes, and thus much harder to convincingly "enhance." But I have no doubt that Samsung Research is up to the task of figuring out even more ways to monetize our eyeballs, so your point is well taken.
While I can't argue spreadsheets are a programming language, I would put forward that they are definitely a programming gateway drug for analysts. At least, from my experience, having to easily handle more rows than could be represented in an Excel sheet was what pushed me to SQL and Python. With powerBI and various other data modeling tools, those constraints aren't nearly as vicious as they used to be, but even 10 years ago they were insurmountable in vanilla 32 bit Excel.
> different than you treat Bob who you pulled over because his stereo was too loud or his window tint to dark and that is all the stop is going to be about.

Is it really all the stop is going to be about? You can guarantee that?

Not every criminal is a fugitive with an outstanding warrant. Some of them are unlucky enough to get pulled over during the getaway from their first capital offense for minor violations as stupid as window tint or loud stereos. It's like cheating-- if you're willing to break one rule, you're willing to break others. This is why these nitpicky laws for stupid shit exist.

So it won't end well when a meter maid expecting to write a tint violation ticket notices banging and thumping coming from Bob's trunk on an empty road. Alice is armed with a ticket printer. Bob is armed with god knows what, because given the limousine tint Alice can't see into the car as well as Bob can see out of it.

(Besides, people assault-and-batter meter maids in less-dire situations all the time. Suspects are supposed to fear the enforcement officer, not size them up.)

We literally train kidnapping victims trapped in trunks to sabotage brake lights because it will attract police attention and sufficiently-armed-and-trained intervention. The Department of Motor Vehicles isn't going to be who saves your ass.
I haven't followed CS for some time so I might be missing something key about this announcement... but to my eyes the graphics and effects look smooth, but strangely outdated. The smoke effects look like something that would be exciting a decade ago, and the characters move awkwardly and unnaturally.
It's frustrating to see so much focus given to how these language models can be tricked into saying silly things.

They are an amazing achievement. We finally have a practical tool to extract things from text, just by talking to it! And yet we're focusing on probing the shadows of their training sets ...
> I typically see two kinds of raspi hate, and only one of them is reasonable imo. The first is stuff like this article, where you can probably get something better than a raspi these days for about the same price (especially when you consider scalper pricing) or just run a docker image in a server you can make with an old computer. This is very good advice, especially now that getting a raspi at MSRP is borderline impossible.

This bit was always the head scratcher to me. I've never owned or worked with a pi, simply because I have an old SFF PC that is many times more powerful. I remember reading stuff here on HN about people building k8s clusters and similar things on raspis... why would you do this to yourself? Just virtualize on the junky old PC if you really want to have multiple "nodes" of some sort.

I get there are use cases where "put a small slow computer in a physical location" is what you actually want, but it feels like raspi gets jammed into a lot of uses which don't make much sense. Just because you can doesn't mean you should...
I have to make new things pretty often. If you step outside of the high-level cloud/webdev stuff that most people seem to be obsessed with these days, there are a lot of non-trivial problems being solved in lower-level software such as device drivers, kernels, and compilers.

EDIT: i misinterpreted what you were saying, initially i thought you were asking how i make new things, not how often i make new things. my original reply is below.

weelll, i think about it real hard and do research? Not sure what your point is, but I definitely don't solve these problems by trying to find somebody else's solution to copy, or just dumping a bunch of C code that doesn't do anything and calling it a day like GPT would.
The relevant HN guideline covers that case:

"Please don't post insinuations about astroturfing, shilling, bots, brigading, foreign agents and the like. It degrades discussion and is usually mistaken. If you're worried about abuse, email hn@ycombinator.com and we'll look at the data."

https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

https://hn.algolia.com/?sort=byDate&dateRange=all&type=comme...

Internet users are far too quick to accuse others of manipulation/astroturfing/etc.* When we dig into the data we nearly always find that someone is simply posting from a different background than the majority here. Different backgrounds lead people to have different views. No doubt there does exist conscious manipulation and abuse; but the dangers of mob effects coming from users who feel like they're seeing that, and then gang up on someone who actually is just coming from a different background, are much more of a threat to the community.

* I mean on political/ideological questions and the like; user intuition tends to be more accurate when it comes to people promoting products and so on - though the two bleed together in the case of big corps and that's a separate thing again.
This sounds pretty interesting, and not something I'd considered. I've got other interests (geopolitics, military aviation, history) that I've put on hold due to the level of schoolwork. You say to "Build your mental toolkit while you have the luxury of time." What would you say your mental toolkit consists of? Where does classics and philosophy come into it? What do you typically apply that toolkit to, and how does it help you?
It's interesting you say that, because I have been under the impression that weather apps always show daily low temperatures based on the calendar day (midnight-to-midnight). I've always thought they could be improved by showing the overnight low, which you're saying is the case for some weather apps. Which ones are those?

It's also worth noting that the midnight-to-midnight scheme is a lot more well-defined than the alternative we're both advocating. What do you show as the low temperature for today if it's currently 3am and the temperature isn't going to drop until 3am tomorrow? If that temperature drop is displayed as today's low temperature, then I won't be able to discern whether it will get cold during this night (i.e. today between 1am and 7am) or the following night (i.e. between 7pm today and 7am tomorrow). Not to mention that cold systems can move in at any time, and it may be much colder at noon tomorrow than 3am tomorrow, so in many case "overnight low" isn't even what you care about.

Not all source engine games play nice with variable tickrates but CSGO mostly does, that's why you can play on either 64 or 128. With this change to hit detection though, 128 tick will probably become redundant so 60-70 will probably become the standard across both casual and competitive play. I doubt they will reduce it under 60.
