I'm sure Amazon can commit more resources to solving this problem than some random individual on HN can commit to a ~3 sentence long comment.

If they wanted to solve this problem, they would have already. Clearly, they don't care. People buy products with good reviews, and Amazon makes money when people buy products.

I wonder if they've been sued over this? I'm not a lawyer, but this sounds like false advertising to me.
I was under the impression that internally Amazon can track whose item you got because every item gets a tracking sticker when it enters the warehouse (or even sooner, if the seller labels them to save money). It would be a bit of an UI problem, but Amazon could take your review and just attribute it to whichever seller provided the item you received, instead of whichever you bought from.

Of course that's of limited help because you can't reliably order from a specific seller, but it would help Amazon fix the problem, e.g. by giving them an easy justification to reject to do Fullfillment by Amazon for sellers with low ratings.
This is one of the traps when you go for the naive approach to framerate independence: simply using the frame delta for stepping your calculations. Results for physics engines are very wacky! It's usually better to step your physics engine at a fixed rate (e.g. 60hz), and make the frequency of steps performed independent of the graphics framerate. Perform some slight interpolation on the position of rendered objects and nobody can tell the difference
2000 pages is great. I could ask question from a book or three. That would be very useful, I'd be willing to pay for that.

What about adding my ebook library, and asking questions against it , would there be some way to do that ?
I'd wager that a significant amount of that "prefer" is from it often being the first/default option at checkout.

The underlying “now” test seems reasonable: load a bunch of data off the storage and see how long it takes. You could even theoretically read all data and uncover slow sections (if there is such a thing).

Writing would be harder of course.
> I know that there is an Apple Music app for Echo that lets Apple Music be a source for Echo, so that I could say "Play Foo on Apple Music" and Alexa would use Apple Music [to] do that…

Yes, this works great.

> …but I don't want to choose my music by voice. I want to do the choosing on my Mac or phone/tablet.

This also works but requires using Bluetooth. There's no way to "hand off" from an iPhone/iPad to Alexa as you can with a HomePod.
You're being sprayed with weed killer. It doesn't matter to the farmer that a few flowers are killed, it just matters that the weeds are kept down.

Not truthfully, they can't.
Twice that has happened to me, so I left a review mentioning the bribe. Amazon rejected the review saying that isn't the right mechanism for that feedback. All the same, hundreds of people were ordering this five star item, unaware most of the reviews were paid for reviews.
Windows keys use digits, consonants and Y, but then they have sequences like BKDR, F7CK, GYMP and 666.
For now AI has nearly zero debugging skills. Which I'm not surprised by because debugging requires reasoning, often over large parts of the system.

this is a counterfactual misrepresentation of gender dysphoria and the medical community recommendation for it's treatment in adolescents beyond tanner stage 2.

the misrepresentation is part of Mr. Trump's talking point to "eradicate transgenderism" and it's dividing families from gender dysphoric family members and driving individuals into suicide.

> How would you be able to tell?

There are many ways. The most common are: If the users tell you they're from North Korea, you can tell that they're from North Korea. Also, if they connect from a North Korean IP, you can tell that they're from North Korea.

> And what sensitive information could they access? It’s defacto public.

The request likely had nothing to do with "sensitive information", but instead, sanctions.
To be fair, you're developing in an insanely saturated market niche. I can think of 9 tools offhand that do the same thing.

This. Because people have their personal identity, their work identity, maybe a corporate identity if they run a company. It's too complex a concept to codify into an Uber-identity.
That redirects to the non-classical music app page already.
I dunno. Where does the burden of proof lie on this? Starbucks seems to be the one claiming they can’t give arbitrary raises to union workers. The union seems to be saying “you can!”

It seems to me that Starbucks is pulling a “we’ve tried nothing and we’re all out of ideas!” here.

On one hand I can see why they’d do that, on the other hand they still need to operate within federal employment law and it sounds like the NLRB says they aren’t. Presumably they can challenge that in court if they disagree?

L2 shows promise, but I don't believe it works till I see it used at scale. Sorry but there's just too much hype, and I often say the same thing about other tech like Tesla FSD, the Metaverse, or all of Google's side bets.
This is good because unlike Java, for C++ there are several standard library implementations so relying on something that happens to be guaranteed by one is not a good idea. The standard and documentation is the only place where you will find what is actually guaranteed to work.
it just feels like, if you were to ask starbucks management/leadership

"can employees in your non-union stores request 5 days off unpaid if they are sick without fear of being fired"

they would say "absolutely"

but you are saying "most likely not"

who is being dishonest?

if most of your employees are in that 20-35 hour range with no fear of overtime, aren't you able to say "so and so is sick, let me just call somebody else who is being under-utilized/has availability?"
I mean not to be callous towards the Ukrainians (who are incredibly heroic), but:

- NATO is a stronger alliance, so the US will not have to spend as much defending Europe in the long run

- us has spent ~1-2k/citizen to dismantle one of its biggest existential threats

- china has tons of egg on face

If nukes don't happen, I'll be entertaining the idea Biden the greatest stable genius Chad president we've had. And I started out disliking Biden. Definitely hated him when he was veep.

Sam Bankman-Fried Is Charged with Foreign Bribery
There is a famous story about Customer Obsession and returns that I used to tell during training sessions for new Amazon employees- Customer Obsession 101, which I was a teacher for.

Jeff is in a call center for a day shadowing a customer support agent. A customer calls about a specific item and the CS agent is like "They're going to say it's broken in this particular manner" before the call even starts. Jeff later is like "How did you know?" and the agent says "Because this is like the tenth time I've had calls about this". There was some problem in the warehouse that kept breaking the item in the same way, but what can a CS agent do about that? File a ticket that no one reads?

So Amazon introduced an 'Andon button' that let CS agents stop sales of a given product if they keep seeing the same problem. Customer Obsession! Crazy idea to empower entry-level people to have such impact! Only Amazon would do something like that!

Anyways, that Amazon is dead, "Day 1" is long gone, and unless the item is a standard product of low value I personally do not shop there anymore.
Predictability is one of the most exciting aspects of HVM, to me. That's because everything is linear, so time and space costs are completely measurable, in a way that resembles C, but even more profoundly. For example, in the following GitHub issue:

https://github.com/HigherOrderCO/HVM/issues/167

I discuss how HVM is able to perform deforesting, one of the core techniques that made GHC so fast, "for free" at runtime, without being explicitly hardcoded. That is great, but the point I'd like to make is how I show that: by measuring the 'rewrite count' of a program with HVM's '-c' flag. It shows you how many rewrites a program evaluation took. Since each rewrite is a constant time operation, this gives us a very precise metric of the complexity of a program.

On the issue above, I implemented two versions of the same function, and measured their rewrite counts. Here are the tables:

Fn V1

N | rewrites
- | --------
0 | 402
1 | 802
2 | 1202
3 | 1602
4 | 2002
5 | 2402
6 | 2802
7 | 3202
8 | 3602
9 | 4002

Fn V2

N | rewrites
- | --------
0 | 1403
1 | 1408
2 | 1413
3 | 1418
4 | 1423
5 | 1428
6 | 1433
7 | 1438
8 | 1443
9 | 1448

From these numbers, we can tell V2 scales better than V1, without doing any benchmark. Not only that, but we're able to write explicit formulas for the runtime cost of each version:

TimeComplexity(FnV1(N)) = 402 + 400*N rewrites
TimeComplexity(FnV2(N)) = 1403 + 5*N rewrites

Which means both are O(N), but V2 has a 80x smaller linear coefficient. This precision extends to memory and space too. This is why we're so excited to build Kindelia to apply HVM to the context of blockchain VMs, as this granular measurability isn't available on GHC, which is why Cardano can't use the Haskell compiler, and must resort to an interpreter, greatly affecting its throughput. Of course, this is just one of many the applications of the HVM.
Definitely not the vaccine
Yes, but I've tried making products for non-competitive niches and they've all failed. And only when I made a product in a competitive niche did sales appear.
"Criminals are already using ChatGPT to commit crimes, Europol said in a Monday report that details how AI language models can fuel fraud, cybercrime, and terrorism."

This was always going to happen. Can't count the number of articles and hot-takes on social media over the potential use of LLM's to create malicious code and whatnot.

Like any other cybercrime-related issue, law enforcement will be playing a perpetual game of cat and mouse.

In my experience, web push notifications on Android do not show immediately (i.e. with high priority). They only show when your phone wakes. Does anyone know of a workaround for this?
There is also an interesting phenomenon that is perhaps overlooked -- Indian tech salaries are low because American tech salaries are high.

How?

Many Indians only work at these 30k jobs because of the possibility that they can eventually parlay those years of experience to emigrate and get a 300k job in the US. At big tech companies, many join the Indian office with the implicit or sometimes explicit promise that the company will sponsor their L1 or H1B after a couple of promotions.

I see parallels to how medical school graduates treat residencies and fellowships. If becoming a doctor meant making fellowship money forever (often 1/5th to 1/10th of what a full doctor would make), not nearly as many quality people would go into medicine.

You can only pay them so little because they see themselves as still in training for the "real job" that is in the US. Don't confuse this for true arbitrage.
> It's fair to dismiss them because they have an institutional habit of covering it up.

Well, they take care of it themselves and don't get the legal system involved. They have their own ways of dealing with it. They don't support it and it's not like they're actively facilitating it. You may agree or disagree with this but there are many different communities in the USA that prefer to act this way.

> This is wrong. Not educating someone keeps them under your control. That's abusive.

They get enough education. I'd wager most of them are better educated than the majority of public school attendees, most which graduate with a < 8th grade level of reading and match ability. I think we should look at our own broken system more before criticizing them and holding them to a different standard.
Can anyone comment on how necessary this sort of behavior might be to operate in middle economies / developing economies?
To be fair here, they are handy if the bank wakes up one day and decides you are a wrong 'un for no good reason.

Or if you are transacting with someone with a funny sounding name, or who lives in a developing country (especially in MENA).

You can conduct your business without worrying about intermediary risk.

Hell, I've had bizarre issues in the past trying to make transfers between some large American banks and a number of European banks, the transactions just get "stuck" for a couple weeks, then get refunded, because somewhere in the middle something goes tits up.
Pepsi Zero Wild Cherry? Nice. Now drop the caffeine and you will have a real winner.
Yea, gotts agree on this one. XML hits the sweat spot.
Yeah with Amazon you'll get in 2-3 days, but you'll end up paying 2-3x as well. I considered building a browser extension that just lists the Alibaba/AliExpress item for you when you land on amazon listing and did a bit of research. Most things you search for on Amazon these days that crowd the first page results are literally just copies of AliExpress items at 2-3x the markup. Sometimes the convenience is worth it.
If you wanted to use this for a 64k demo then your next trick would be figuring out how to cram it into less than that - you need room for all the code that actually uses the models, as well as the sound, sequencing, and whatnot.
Starbucks stores only started attempting unionizing in the past year or two, and the first store to unionize did so in Dec 2021. [1]

So this is all pretty brand new. The union, I presume, wants ALL stores to be unionized, and wants ALL stores to have CC tip options, and for ALL stores to have those other union-negotiated benefits.

Rolling out the ability to accept CC tips as a strictly non-union perk is 100% a union-busting power play.

> Because I think ext4 doesn’t normalize Unicode?

Yeah, native Linux filesystems don't really know anything about unicode at all at their heart. They really work more on raw bytes, simply reserving 0x00 (NUL) and 0x2F ('/'). Anything else goes in a filename as far as the kernel is concerned (including evil stuff like incomplete multibyte sequences, or other invalid UTF-8 byte sequences). User space is welcome to and encouraged to treat filenames as UTF-8 on modern systems, but that's not really enforced anywhere strongly.
It's nice if you have local business that actually know their products. Especially with outdoor/sports equipment. I know I'm paying a premium but I happily do it.

Electronics on the other hand, sure I'll try to go to bestbuy for stuff because that's the only electronics store we have that's close but they have no clue about the products they're selling.
These days yes. Has LLVM and GCC front ends too, very easy to get going with it.

D wasn't Boost licensed when I looked at it as a replacement for C++ about a decade ago. Wiki thinks the backend has been available since 2017. It looks like the source may have been available for longer than that but I missed the distinction between source available and open source if it was. That's how I ended up on the C++ path instead of the D one anyway, seems a credible risk others have the same experience.

I largely agree. I guess I would just say that every decision comes at a cost, and maintaining compatibility usually comes with a small performance cost, exactly the sort of cost Apple least wants to pay on their new devices.
oh, and when I said compilers, that's for legacy code, since with a standard world-wide ISA, it is the start of the assembly era.
There is a license involved (BSD currently) and there is dependancy on Google moving things forward for Chromium.

If Google stopped developing Chromium or decided to move its Chromium development to a closed-source project, other chromium-based browsers would have hard time keeping up with the necessary development to keep a web rendering engine up to date.
I would agree. I think vigorous anti-monopoly legislation is better approach.
I nearly forgot the other fact about street-lighting. It was widely adopted at a time when there was a lot of night-time baseload that couldn't be turned off. Now that we use more intermittent sources, there just isn't this "free" night time power to be used.
They should charge for changing listings. If not in money by taking the listing down for an indefinite period with some vague "in review" period.
>additional spare capacity in the wires

1. What additional spare capacity? Why would any particular electrical installation (here, streetlights) be designed for about an order of magnitude more carrying capacity?

2. One of the original motivators for near-universal lighting of roads was to use the night-time baseload of power stations that could not be turned off (ie, nuclear and coal). Now that we use much more intermittent sources, this "free" energy just doesn't exist. It may be that switching to energy-efficient street lighting just makes up for this shortfall, leaving no spare power.
Just like anything physical, you could simply have a “go ahead and do it, but you get no help from us” policy. When the ecosystem is open enough there is a community of people who learn what they need to. For reference see: car racing.
I'm pretty sure GPT-4 could be shown the product page as it was when the first review was posted, and then again as it is now, and be asked "Are these two pages about the same product, please answer Yes or No with no further context"
It's been rumored over the years that Starbucks' chairman Howard Schultz has some pretty lofty political aspirations. There's a darkly humorous thing that happens when sort of liberalish business leaders discover that workers at their company want to unionize (clearly there must be some kind of mistake!), but Schultz might just get over it and play ball with the unions.
Well, having fun is a very subjective thing. I was not a party guy neither but I must admit I did not need to work like you.
It is just that I went abroad to study. That was an adventure for me as I could barely speak English at 18.
I lived 5 years in the UK, then I worked 7 years in Germany. It fulfilled my need to discover the world and gave me a better insight about what is good or bad in a country.

Now I am having fun by doing cycling trips several days with my son. We are eagerly waiting for the sun.

I don't see what young people see, what is bad about the modern world? We are not at war, we have an incredible comfort, I don't get why it is not a good time to have children (if you want one of course).
I think people should just stop trying to plan everything and just do something and improvise.

Disclaimer: having children is a money sink and limiting factor when want to pursue your career, but it is not blocking you.

The worst are items that are photoshopped not just into a background, but containers holding things that are the wrong scale. The other day I saw some 1.5oz shot glasses with a drink with 3 or 4 lime slices floating in them. The person editing that clearly had no idea the scale of the item they were editing in the first place.
What I'm saying: take a classical score as is and input it perfectly as a midi file and you are guaranteed to have a terrible output. Yet on paper, it's perfectly rendered as the composer wrote it.

This is why the act of playing music by a human is called a "performance", an "interpretation" in some languages. The musician is not just playing a score exactly as it is written, the musician gives a part of his/her into the act and make the music his/her own to make art.
Tell HN: Don't just call fine-tuning “training”
It's easy to misunderstand claims of running LLMS locally, as if anyone can write the next ChatGPT on their laptop.

Even though fine tuning is a type of training, it is not the hard part, so one solution is to communicate more clearly and always call fine-tuning fine-tuning. There are a lot of new people wanting to get into the field, and having clarity in your claims will help us out.

Thanks
Personally, I'd drop the lifetime access pretty quickly and bank on the fact that customers will renew for a quality product/service.

Last thing you want is an income time bomb in 3 years where your most active and loyal customers no longer need to pay.

Maybe an alternative could be to offer free months subscription and a tshirt for every successful recommendation
