It's interesting that the outputs still vaguely resemble the subjects of the prompts. It implies to me that there's still a little bit of the characters in the dataset, but not very much.

If you look up "Pikachu" in Adobe Stock [1] there actually are a lot of results. They're mostly figurines, pokemon cards, quokka, and Machu Pichu. Very few direct illustrations. And of course there might be filtering used on the dataset before it was used to train the model, a lot of the images that have Pokemon imagery are marked "Editorial use only".

Currently, I am working on a website where people can post their code and ask for feedback. (Something http://pullrequest.com/)

Note that these are mostly side projects. Unless you are very good, they will be side projects for now :)
I get the feeling that remote employees do less work in general, except for the few who really make an effort to stay connected and on top of stuff despite WFH. I've been guilty of this at times, and when I got back into gear, I noticed how slowly everyone else responded to stuff. It's not just a few people going AWOL and ruining it for everyone.
Virtual wall: how the US plans to boost surveillance at the southern border
From what I’ve both read and experienced on a brief trip to Shanghai, it seems there are two main factions - the Beijing faction and Shanghai faction. The latter is more capitalist and chill, the former more authoritarian. It’s probably more complicated though, with multiple sub factions around different leaders in the CCP. Maybe someone with deeper knowledge can elaborate.
People get excited because "it's open source". Except it's really not as only the instruction set is "open source" and even that doesn't really mean much as interfaces have dubious copyright protection. Still, it promises a cheaper alternative to ARM because of the theoretical reduced licensing costs from the trademark name.

The other salient is political: ARM, x86, etc are Western aligned while RISC-V is attractively nonaligned. ARM's government mandated Chinese subsidiary went rogue against ARM itself which endangers the use of ARM chips in China. RISC-V hedges against this risk for China.
Ok, it all works the same on public roads too, and isn't as good as a 911 there either?

I realize there is a valid point here that actual handling doesn't matter other than "the steering feels fun to me for whatever reason" and sure, the Tesla does that decently. So does a Mazda CX-50 crossover for some reason. (I dunno why but they gave it the sportiest steering feel ever)

Well as other have said here, the Macs are a bit pricey outside of the US. My story is I was going to replace my M1 Macbook Pro with a new M2 Air, however it's coming in a £1949, that's for 1TB hard drive and 16GB of memory, which is simply out of my budget, I need to hang on for the next cycle and get an M3 or M4 Macbook Air I think.

That's the key: they still trudge through it. I fully agree that those people are indeed amazing. In my experience, though, many complainers toss out every objection possible hoping to make the new project seem so difficult that it isn't worth doing (so everyone will just drop it). Those complainers are toxic and can kill progress. But yes, the ones who verbalize issues just to make sure everyone has a full understanding of a project and the challenges in completing it... but still have every intention to conquer those challenges and stick with it to the end... yes, give me those types of 'complainers' ANY day :)

> as trivial as staplers.

I used to be over by the window, and I could see the squirrels, and they were merry, but then, they switched from the Swingline to the Boston stapler, but I kept my Swingline stapler because it didn't bind up as much, and I kept the staples for the Swingline stapler and it's not okay because if they take my stapler then I'll set the building on fire...
And there were/are some differences between AMD and Intel 64-bit x86 once you get into the details (and indeed between various extensions on a given microarchitecture). x86_64 (or x86-64), ugly as it is, is probably the best way to refer to specifically 64-bit x86 at a non-vendor-specific level. Just x86 works for a lot of purposes too.

Maybe someone wants to try to get this to work in a VM (or Wine even), report back (and email the author of the article if successful)?
The common one is the lack of a rain sensor for the automatic wipers. It relies on image recognition, and it’s very bad. They could perhaps train the model a bit better, to perhaps not start the wipers at full speed when it’s a blue sky with a dry road. But the cameras are on top of the windshield, and it can’t easily water at the bottom.
It seems these days that using Jira is primarily about making work legible in large orgs.
I think the reason people are paying attention to Yudkowski are because 1. he’s a well known figure in the ‘rationalist’ community and 2. his recommendations on what to do with AI are the most ‘out-there’ that anyone has made, so naturally the clickbait media is spreading the message far and wide.

RE the backlash prediction, I’m basing it off pure conjecture. However I’d bet $500 that I’ll be right on this one. Artists, musicians, writers, etc are already not happy with the CURRENT tools and I think they’re gonna have a lot more professions joining their ranks soon.
Just yesterday I learned something about the translations of this book:

Note, there are two translations of Solaris. The bad one is from 1970, which was translated from Polish to French and then from French into English. All physical print versions of Solaris in English use this translation.
In 2011, the first direct translation of Solaris into English was published in audiobook and ebook. It's only available digitally, but this is the one you want to read.

https://www.reddit.com/r/printSF/comments/12932gh/my_review_...

I wonder if this is why, among all of the Lem books I have devoured, Solaris was one of my least favorites. I'm going to have to give it another shot.
Probably someone else has the distribution rights
Yes, I did. Unfortunately, that playbook only supports single master.

> With birds eye view, parking sensors aren't really needed anymore, so they didn't place an order for new sensors.

Is OP saying that the proximity beeping would be done by the cameras (some sort of computational videography like an iPhone?) rather than the old sensor type or that the only answer would be visual? If the latter, that’s crazy - my truck has amazing cameras but if I am trying to back up with the sun low in the sky behind me, or the camera covered in dirt or snow, it is useless.
I get what you mean, but I'm the type that would rather read middle grade fluff than stick my finger in the wound...
Basically, all the same arguments you've heard in favor of open source in general.

Today, board developers have to pay if they want to license ARM. And with recent developments coming out of ARM, the price to pay is going up by a lot, very soon. If RISC-V can develop to the point of more or less parity with ARM, then that will enable cheaper products that are just as good, equally priced products that are better, or equivalently positioned products that return a better profit to their manufacturers (which is good for you even if only indirectly—better profitability means easier entry for competition, better financial stability behind whatever ecosystem you're buying into, lower chances of companies crashing and leaving behind unmaintainable e-waste, etc).

IMO, reduced rent-seeking is good for everybody no matter what sector. I want more collaboration and less human effort/ingenuity/resource dissipating to waste heat. Open source makes Moloch cry.
>I did get 2 or 3 of those brake slamming moments though (they keep it...interesting?).

Yeah no. Free food != superflous staplers. Hard disagree on that one
If you enjoyed the movie, I absolutely recommend reading the novel by Lem. It is less mystical and much more analytical/philosophical than the Tarkovsky movie. (And the ending actually makes sense, which I found to be somewhat of a weak point of the Tarkovsky adoption.)

But be sure that you read the new English ebook translation by Bill Johnston! The old Kilmartin/Cox translation was a retranslation from a French translation, and it's not good.
If this is true Google/Alphabet has really spiraled downward. Such a boneheaded move.

Surely I can't be the only HN reader that thought, "I can't remember the last time I touched a stapler." Frankly, I think the headline writer threw staplers in there just for the sizzle. If I might so boldly suggest reading TFA, staplers are just one example of other things that made a lot of sense. Yoga classes on a Friday afternoon when a lot of folks WFH (or not at all on a Friday afternoon)? Handing out multi-core full-blown laptops to non-technical roles that could just as easily get by with a Chromebook? Buses running with one passenger? Get a company Google's size, and that stuff starts to add up to real money.

So, yeah, Google is swirling the toilet because someone has to walk to the receptionist's desk once a year to get a piece of tape or borrow a stapler. I'd be more worried about a company that just hands out shit that no one uses, without ever once asking if anyone actually uses it.
I fail to see what works be inaccurate. That other car manufacturers are conservative has no bearing on it, it’s easily believable that Tesla would want a 360 view, and given their all in approach on vision would assume they would get rid of the seed for parking sensors (see: LiDAR). It’s also easily believable that they would go with that ahead of anything being ready because Tesla hubris and would end up where they got.
They took a chunk out of the left side of the "8", leaving "3". At least, that's how I've always interpreted it.
From the title, I thought this was about TempleOS and Terry A Davis.
I really like Pine64, this is really nice to see! The coolest part IMHO is they are including an PCIe x1 slot, right on the board.

I feel like RISC V has really started to pick up momentum over the last year or two, which is awesome to see. There have also been a bunch of tiny RISC V softcores for FPGAs too.
Entirely predictable train wreck in the making. The vision based transition from the start has been a complete mess for years now. Here is a short summary for those that don't understand.

- Mobile Eye dumps Tesla in AP1 days forcing them to develop their own vision based auto pilot aka AP2
https://arstechnica.com/cars/2016/09/tesla-dropped-by-mobile...
For those that aren't aware it took years for it to work nearly as well as AP1.
- Tesla removes rain senor in favor of vision based detection in AP2 cars as well. To this day vision based rain sensing is one of the worst features of the car. It is laughably bad in certain scenarios (night).
- Early 2021 Tesla removes radar in favor of vision based cruise control and Traffic aware cruise control. Again, the product was rushed out due to supply shortages in an unfinished state. Still to this day the speed limit and distance settings are not on parity with radar enable cars. Vision based cars still deal with frequent phantom braking (just google it). Surprise surprise this one was so bad radar is coming back in hardware 4.

I've AP1,2, and 3 cars now and we were forced to sell our 2021 Y over issue #3 the phantom braking in the vision based system. I've heard it has gotten better but this parking sensor business is just more of the same from Tesla. Another one that is flying under the radar with HW4, Tesla is removing the ambient outdoor temperature sensor. This is right up there with the rain sensor. I can't tell you how many times I've been traveling through a weather system or going up and down elevation it's nice to know the actual temperature, not something fed from an API.
Fun fact: when that movie came out, swingline actually didn't make a red stapler - the producers painted a black one red because it showed up better on camera. After the movie came out, demand for red swingline staplers was so high, they started producing them and it became their biggest seller for years.
I guess I shouldn't have lumped that purchase in with the others -- maybe IG should be separate indeed. I thought maybe it was similar to YouTube at the time of acquisition but rethinking it now it probably wasn't.

Ask HN: How to send a message to someone 20 years into the future?
Hey there, so I just found out that I'm gonna be a dad soon, and I had this idea to create an email account for my future kid. I wanna send them random stuff like thoughts, facts, and stories until they hit 20.

But now I'm stuck trying to decide which email provider to use, and also wondering if email will still be a thing by then.

Anyway, I thought I'd turn to you folks on Hacker News for some advice. What do you think?

im not trying to compare it with kubeadm (which is a more a setup script https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/setup-tools/kubeadm/ ) but with the fact that vanilla kubernetes comes with moving parts that have to be configured and maintained and also updated separately.

you can actually setup "kubernetes" which is often referred to as vanilla kubernetes without it too. See "Kubernetes the hard way" by kelsey hightower.

I can add a little bit of anecdata as well.

My wife has been using Macs for a long time now while I use both Macs and Dells with Linux and, occasionally, a Lenovo or an HP. We have gone through at least 10 Macs in total and none of them failed in less than 8 years. One got a puffy battery (replaced in warranty), one got chipped when it fell from the desk (a white MacBook, Apple replaced the bottom, keyboard, and palm rest for free, even though the machine was out of warranty, but was listed in a recall for the palm rest). Some HDs died and some flash got upgraded. While it's not a daily driver, even the white MacBook is still going strong (as is the Bondi Blue iMac, the eMac, and the dual G5, none of which get much uptime these days, but boot up just fine every month or so). Both our current Macs (a 13" Pro and an i5 Mini) are from 2014 and will be replaced by M2 ones because they can't get the newest OS (while I can get away with it, my wife won't for long due to professional compliance rules).

No consumer-grade PC laptop or desktop of mine lasted that long in active use (some x86 servers did, as all the Sun and IBM PPC/POWER stuff) without extensive overhauling. Even my Thinkpads got cracks after five years.

The thing that worries me the most with the newer Macs is the flash storage - when it dies, I don't expect them to be repairable. I hope Apple includes M.2 slots in the future, even if the laptops need to be bulkier because of that.
I wish HN had more complaints like this, and not the usual "whatever is the latest Chrome API of the day we need it in all browsers now!"

As a tangent. If it was Apple of, say, 5-10 years ago, I'd also root for them to get their head out of their ass and lead in https://open-ui.org/ (started, of all people, by devs from Microsoft). Alas, with the way they approach interfaces these days, I'd want them far away from leading :)
