Well yeah, that's why I said I have $29 D-50 compliant LEDs in my office. Though CRI, to an extent is more important than color temperature, since with high CRI under warm light you can still get a great sense for relative colors and contrast, but not so much with a mediocre CRI under a daylight bulb.

I'm not an LED hater. But I do think the Lightbulb industry has taken advantage of us in not so honest ways, as expected by their shareholders.
Hi author here! The app should work on mobile/desktop and was tested on both Safari and Chrome. I've heard it's buggy for some people (unclear if it's an older hardware problem) but you can try this embedded demo which works better: https://kzakka.com/robopianist/#demo
>Folks like Michael Seibel, Garry Tan, and other partners all respond to emails + engage as much (or as little) as you ask them to.
You can use any embeddings you want! We normally use OpenAI's ada which is $4 per 10 million tokens, which is fine for now. But eventually we'll need to figure out a way to incrementally sync data from SaaS tools instead of re-vectorizing all the content when the vector store needs to be updated.
Yeah, it's hard. But sustaining that is how you get the next Facebook.

Getting ready at home doesn't take any longer if you're WFH or going to the office. Gotta shower and wear pants either way.

My old commute was 12 mile and consistently <30 minutes each way.

My current commute is a 1 mile walk that takes <20 minute. Def. lucked into this - my wife's commute is more typical at 10 miles/20-30 minutes.

My dad's old commute was 5 miles/15 minutes. Mom's was similar.

Of my friends, 2 commute downtown (Flex Time/hybrid) for .gov positions. I can't think of any that commute more than 30 minutes each direction.

Edit - I'll add that almost all of us could take jobs downtown for more money. And either deal with the commute or move into more expensive housing closer in. It's a balance. We're lucky to be in a position to make that balance. But, just about any software developer is going to have that option (except perhaps in SV).

Doesn't even have to be that modern, my Ivy Bridge CPU already achieves faster than realtime performance - which makes me wonder if there is maybe some upstart cost for the GPU based solution and it would outperform the CPU only with longer clips.
I find it interesting that you feel the need to say that. At probably no point in US history are fathers spending more time with their kids than today. And yet our parenting culture is so toxic that we still feel the need to tell parents they aren't doing a good enough job.

If this is true, the API would be generating almost 10% of Twitter's revenue. This is a serious business unit for Twitter.
is there any benefit to getting the 7 inch or 8 inch?
It is true that the rise of language models has the potential to introduce fake personas that could manipulate and distort human reality. However, I believe that identifying LLM personas versus humans is not impossible. There are techniques that can be used to detect synthetic content, such as detecting patterns in the language used or analyzing the response time. Additionally, researchers and companies that have been discussed on HN itself that are already working on developing tools to combat deepfakes and synthetic content.

While it's important to remain vigilant about the potential negative impact of LLMs, it's also important to remember the positive ways in which they can be used. Language models have the potential to revolutionize industries such as healthcare and education by analyzing vast amounts of data and providing insights that can improve people's lives.

Furthermore, I don't think that the rise of LLMs will necessarily lead to the decline of the internet as a social medium. Rather, it will likely lead to a greater emphasis on trust and transparency in online interactions. We may see the development of new technologies that enable people to verify the authenticity of online identities, or the rise of platforms that prioritize human-to-human interaction.

Overall, I believe that while there are challenges associated with the rise of LLMs, there are also opportunities for positive change. It's important to continue to monitor the development of these technologies and take proactive steps to ensure that they are used in a responsible and ethical manner.
So there would be absolutely no problem if afghans or cubans bombed the US, right? Is it just the US that is allowed to basically do whatever it wants to a country based on whatever conclusion their spook agencies come up with?

Plus, as the other comment says there has been no proof that libya was involved. Going by a "hunch" or "secret info from our intelligence agencies" isn't evidence either. You should probably read up on the events, it was super controversial at the time so claiming it was just a cut and dry self-defense move from the US is laughable.
> only ever heard of WeChat and what I heard was mostly negative

WeChat is pretty lit and contains a whole internet, sort of akin to how Facebook Pages might contain the only information or updates about many businesses and municipalities.

Yes, a state agency will censor some things, just like a corporation will censor some things. Yes, they collect your data and share it with third parties including the government, just like a series of corporation do on every other network. You're not Chinese, you're not going to disappear, its rare they experience anything more than a message disappearing too, its the same user experience. I don't find the reality to be different enough to warrant the perception of reality.
Insider account of what GPT-4 was like before they aligned it [video]
You can't claim by that stat that 90% of the fentanyl is brought in by American citizens through regulated ports of entry. By the very nature of illegal smuggling via illegal border crossings, you can't even know what percentage of fentanyl smugglers or fentanyl supply is captured.
Jacob Collier is a legit next level musician. He does a lot of overdubbing of himself but he does other styles also. His recordings like Moon River and Flintstones are incredible both in terms of arrangement and performance. In a very different style, his Piano Ballads record is great, Let it Be is great on that one.

Totally understand if none if it is your style!
Or maybe Americans are overwhelmingly trying to smuggle across border crossings because traditionally Americans get less inspection than non-americans, whereas non nationals choose other methods(tunnels, drones, boats, other non-border zone crossings, mail/parcels, etc).

Maybe, and perhaps you'd want to emphasize your team lead experience, outcomes, processes, etc.

The basic takeaway is that 10+ years of experience is valued for management roles, and it's not for IC roles. Most IC job descriptions / ads will want 3 years, 5 years (maybe 7 years max...) of experience with <insert hot new thing> here, and they want people who are minimally qualified for those roles. Extra experience isn't necessarily regarded as a good thing, and can count against you in terms of perceived compensation expectations, or being "damaged goods" that didn't get promoted / on a good career track at their last place.

I wouldn't recommend audio monitors for casual listening. That's not what they're designed for: they're for production. It would be like lighting your living room with shop floor lighting. Yes, it will fully illuminate every square inch of the room so that you can see every speck of dust on the carpet, but that doesn't mean it will make it look good.
Bedrock has had IAPs for many years. It's fine for a private server and they offer Windows and Linux versions of it (client side it supports pretty much every platform except Mac/Linux, including oddities like ChromeOS). Just don't go running it expecting to set up what you would on a Java server - it's two different environments. World update distance default is lower in Realms but can be configured on a private server or client hosted session. It's not really related to raytracing, simulation range has little to do with that.

Both clients/servers have their ups and downs. I do wish they'd release the Bedrock client for Mac/Linux though. Then all platforms would have an official way to interop.
I can’t speak for if it is better or not in YC land, but I can vouch for a truly amazing amount of scammers that salivate when they hear startup. It’s mind boggling.

There is a strong connection between the incandescent lightbulbs and the sun because the sun is almost a blackbody emitter too. Studying incandescent lightbulbs allowed researchers to discover the blackbody spectrum and Kirchhoff's law of thermal radiation, which was then applied to the Sun to discover its apparent temperature. The spectral lines in the Sun's spectrum (the frequencies where it deviates from the blackbody spectrum) then allowed researchers to study elements present in the Sun's photosphere.
OpenAI at least can track the hashes of all content it's ever output, and filter that content out of future training data. Of course they won't be able to do this for the output of other LLMs, but maybe we'll see something like a federated bloom index or something.

Agreed there is no perfect solution though, and it will definitely be a problem finding high quality training data in the future.
"There is nothing machines can't do"

Perhaps. But at this point that is pure conjecture, although I'm increasingly open-minded given recent advances. Still, it's important that we don't get too ahead of ourselves with our proclamations of where we're at with all this.
Because for a lot of people, monotonous labor is all they’re capable of. I know that sounds crazy when you’re surrounded by people in the top 10% of IQ, but not everyone can be a neurosurgeon. Dangerous labor should absolutely be 100% automated whenever possible.
There is a difference between a computer and a human and we tried them already differently in copyright law. For example copying a program from disk into memory is typically already considered a copy on a computer (hence many licences grant you the licence to do this copy), no such licence is required for a human.
I guess, 90% of the contracts I can find on any UK job site is Inside IR35.

Considering that for every contract job there are 10 full time employment offers, real contractor work (i.e. outside IR35) is basically 10% of 10% = 1% of the entire job market. It is abysmal.

Thank you for your suggestion - is it mainly the FAQ answer which you find a bit puzzling or anything else we should improve on the website?

Regarding forecasts.cloud - this website will focus on our applied modelling (renewable generation etc.) and will serve as an offer of models for specialised industries, not weather API. It is not fully operational yet (the English version will be launched later this year) - I am impressed you have been able to find it :)
Of course they don't.

I've been a cigar hobbyist since the early 90s. Cuban cigars have been mostly to completely illegal in the US for the entire time, but with the advent of the widespread use of web pages, we started to get better and better access to the Cuban supply via overseas retailers.

These retailers know full good and well that these cigars are contraband here in the states. But some of them were extremely lazy and would just ship entire pallets of merchandise. I'd guess that about 70-80% of the product bought overseas and shipped here actually got to the buyer. The rest were virtually all on these pallets where you'd have to be a complete idiot not to spot them.

> Want to talk to people who have seen hundreds of companies deal with what you’re dealing? YC is great for that.

The way I read your post, saying you "can get" very valuable advice immediately followed by saying some advice was wrong undermines that "can" pretty solidly. I'm not just looking at that sentence in isolation.

Could we get an estimate of how much of the advice was right, weighted by how non-obvious each thing was and how much of an impact it would have to follow or not follow?
> It does have it's drawbacks. The MOC heavily penalizes build times, and build caching tools like ccache don't work out of the box with it. So not only does the MOC worsens builds, it also prevents basic optimizations from mitigating it.

You have to compare those drawbacks directly to the alternatives, though. I don't have numbers to cite, but I think the attempts at replacing the moc with newer C++ lang features also usually didn't exactly hit the compiler fast paths.

Yes, perhaps optimizing the compilers would be nicer.

> You have to compare those drawbacks to the alternatives, though. I don't have numbers to cite, but I think the attempts at replacing the moc with newer C++ lang features also usually didn't exactly hit the compiler fast paths.

Maybe so, but this is not what my comment is about. What I'm saying is that MS has made much more invasive changes to C++ as a language than Qt has in its platforms or frameworks, e.g. compiler-backed extended and different behavior. Or look at C++/CX (since phased out, thankfully).

There's a lot of "If you're using Qt you're not using C++!!1" FUD to confuse newbies, while it's much easier to inadvertently write non-portable C++ with many other frameworks. Yes, it's a whatboutism (which I hope to have compensated for with many other detailed comments in the thread), but this double standard tends to irk me.
My back of the napkin math says there should be a 40 byte overhead for wireguard around tailscale 1280 byte packets. That's only about a 3% overhead on the direct wire. What is your testing methodology so I can attempt to replicate it in the lab?

Crazy to think we are all here because of that first multi cellular organism splitting over and over and over.

Mind boggling to me.
I thought it said Tailscale Flannel is now available and I was so excited. Still cool. But damn.
Well, now we see each other’s bias. I am in the USA and see what my country does all over the world and see our propaganda. You are in a Baltic country and were actually a part of the movement to join NATO.

Each of us has biases. Yours is that you didn’t really experience much the opinions of 40% of Russian speakers in your country who are also citizens. If you were in Western Ukraine, you’d also be very frustrated with Eastern Ukrainians who like Russia despite all the horrors of past decades.

Not being in USA or Turkey or China, you are unaware of similar things done by them to their neighbors. Many Christian neighbors of Turkey remember genocides and genocidal rapes for instance. In regard to USA, neighbors remember stuff like this: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_occupation_of_...

However, there are still many in the country that want to maintain ties with the imperialidt country despite this, who have family in that country, etc. In fact, they are breathing a sigh of relief that things got better and do not want to join a hostile alliance for fear that their relations with their neighbor will deteriorate badly and they’ll get invaded again. Cuba was in fact invaded, for instance (bay of pigs invasion) and then called for USSR to help. This led to an escalation and standoff and it is GOOD that it got deescalated. That is what I keep saying.

The factors you bring up are neither exhaustive nor determinative. They are just that — factors among other factors.

Your experience is certainly valuable but it is the experience of many nationalist groups in the world, whether they have their own state or are aspiring to get one (Kurds in Iraq, for instance, or Catalonians). The outcome of NATO expansion was predicted by tons of experts and they were right. Regardless of how much you keep repeating a one sided narrative, Russia’s invasion was not “unprovoked”.

I have tried to address every point of yours directly and show you the larger picture, whereas you’ve IGNORED almost every single one of my points in my posts. You’re welcome to reply to the post right above the one I’m replying to, point by point for once, without again dodging.
Right, but they had intercepted and notified her by mail of seizing kilograms of controlled substances on several previous occasions. She had even written back to acknowledge at least one of the notices and formally abandon her ownership interest in the package.
Why wouldn't github count forks? I have several repos forked with my own local changes. (I also have some repos forked without changes.) They should absolutely count forks with commits on them at the very least.
Definitely agree on there being a lot of value in the napkin sketch on steroids approach, and that's where we're starting.

Creating real designs and shipping to production within a constrained environment (e.g. https://medium.com/airbnb-engineering/a-deep-dive-into-airbn...) can be super high leverage, so that's ultimately where we want to go. Right now every company that wants to do this has to build it themselves. We didn't use an off-the-shelf solution like Webflow at Airbnb (afaik) because there was no realistic way to integrate it into our stack. I'm not sure if Noya's code export will be what people end up using for this - maybe some kind of JSON-config or something else will be the more useful artifact.

As an analogy, Retool makes it easy to create internal tools, and is usable by more than just eng. But somebody on the eng team needs to first configure it a bit (e.g. plug in the company's data sources) before making real tools becomes possible/efficient. Noya will require a similar level of configuration to become usable in these more advanced scenarios, but we think the value it delivers will be worth the effort.
Yeah but it already failed... Popularity peaked and it's in a straight dive down.
I'm not sure you understand how mechanically complex MC modding gets.

... and that is just one mod. There are mods for interplanetary space travel, mods for modular portals and matter-energy conversion, mods for full z height terrain gen and massive premade structures, mods for virtual NPCs and towns, "backend" mods that overhaul the render, light engine, chunk loading and such. You cant get that with simple block APIs (which Java and Bedrock have to a limited extent).

And we do have modding APIs, like Fabric and Forge. They are just unofficial.

That being said, there is a better middle ground between the current extremely limited official APIs and the very permissive unofficial modding APIs, but it will never happen because it would interfere with Bedrock's MTX, and Java's development is too conservative.
Is there something different about smart bulbs? My oldest hue is at least 6 years old, but probably older (as I can't find the order confirmation for the bridge, so I'm guessing I bought it offline), no flickering, no getting darker.

Logically, I'm thinking that the pure LED components are a much smaller part of the price, and that maybe there is less skimping?
