This is especially hilarious as I, a person with ADHD, am basically on speed whenever I loose access to Adderall. I would strongly encourage you to gain a better understanding of ADHD and other neurodivergent forms before continuing to speak on the topic.
The only solution is multiple solutions. Commercial radio has a threshold of how small a market can be before it isn't worth it any longer, noncommercial radio (including NOAA weather radio stations) can fill in those gaps but require people to have the receivers handy, and more people carry cell phones than radios nowadays but cell service isn't absolutely everywhere. We can improve each of those individual technologies, but no single technology is going to become the only answer.
Or they're incredibly highly leveraged. They bought one home, fixed it up, rented it out, worked up to 20% equity and then immediately went out and got another mortgage and then another, etc. Many of them are one mistake or rate change away from the collapse of their "empire".

My goal is to self host to have syncing between devices. Version control is nice too because part of the journal is a knowledge base that changes often.

I want to keep it private forever that's why I'm considering self hosting.

I would choose github for this in normal circumstances but I am concerned one day they might use private repos for training data.
I would have said everywhere if I intended everywhere, I didn't, so the point you tried to make seems to be moot, it certainly didn't look separate with how you structured your response.

Everyone knows almost nothing happens everywhere. Its why the first thing they teach in argumentation, debate, and logic is to never use absolute language like 'all' and 'every' unless you know its absolute (and can't be misinterpreted).

Miscommunications happen, hopefully you understand how it happened now and will be more careful moving forward.
Vyvanse is AKA lisdexamphetamine which is a slow release form of dexamphetamine AKA dexadrine. The Astral Codex guy says patients prefer dexadrine and patient reports suggest it lacks some of the body affects.

All to say maybe try the cheaper dexadrine twice a day.

While that was the issue that the university took with him, the extra logos on his lab coat, why does the university care about him? Why is he valuable?

Numbers. He boosts numbers with bullshit. Numbers that are misinterpreted to indicate value.

And he’s gotten good at bullshit. He’s even incorporated ChatGPT into his workflow.

So good at it that entities paid him to try and sneak some extra logos on his lab coat. He’s smart. He likely found ways to never accept money and yet fully utilize it for his benefit.

This all matters.

Yikes. Containers are stacked as high as they can be to not crush the containers below. Applying additional downward force is going to cause cascading failures.

You've also just limited your deployment to routes that have double-stack container cranes, which AFAIK aren't that widely deployed.

I think this remains a usability problem for parquet: most of the tooling sucks. Starting to get better, but parquet has been out for so many years and there are still few tools that natively let someone interact with the format. For years, most of the utilities were exclusively JVM based.

My favorite way to explore parquet is to make a virtual link through DuckDB where you can seamlessly treat it like a SQL table. Even browse it in DBeaver.
How much they vary seems to be very patient specific (perhaps amplified or muted by their relative dosages? ie Vyvanse max of 70 is supposed to be comparable to Adderall max of 60). I personally experience just the same appetite suppression with both (severe, although if I actually put a bite of food in my face it can sometimes “break the spell”). But I know other people notice the difference more like you do. They’re definitely not interchangeable, but how much so might vary from deal breaker as it is for you, to basically indistinguishable as it is for me (at least on the appetite suppressant topic).

Not meant to argue, I just don’t want to unnecessarily dissuade people who might be having trouble filling Adderall and weighing the possibility of temporarily substituting so they have something to fill the gap.
> The old “school of strength and character” is gone. The nineteenth-century pattern of life that created it no longer exists. But the features of its social fabric demonstrate what an agentic society with a recognizably modern set of technologies and institutions looks like. This culture was upstream of organizations like the Sanitary Commission, making possible the agentic behaviors of those who founded them. Three features are especially prominent: the aspirational ideal of public brotherhood, a commitment to formality and discipline in self-government, and organizational structures that combined decentralization with hierarchy. These are the same patterns any future culture of high agency self-government will also have to cultivate in themselves and their neighbors.

From your description, it does sound like your Parrot has some understanding of meaning, much like dogs do. Not that they understand the grammar or can make out the individual words, but it seems like it can correlate <real world event> with <sounds>. <get back up> -> "Good boy"; <caught you right where I wanted you> -> "<snap> + Ah-ha!". Similarly, a dog may not understand that "sit" is an English word, but it can clearly understand "sit" -> <get that ass on the floor> (or whatever language you used to train them, they couldn't care less). That association is meaning, even if they are not fully acquainted with the works of Shakespeare.
I feel the only recognisable words we’d decode is a farewell and some kind of gratitude about food…

Would using a service like this for legal advice not be one of the more hazardous use cases?
I would too. The problem is, like the mini phones, there aren't enough of us, and the profit margin small enough (manufactures make more money on luxury vehicles), that automakers don't see a point. Add in a great number of safety regulations (eg mandatory backup cameras in the US since 2013, automated emergency braking (AEB) in the EU since 2022) which all bring up the price of cars, means that we're relegated to the pre-2017 used car market.
You can just say “no explain” and it won’t explain. Don’t waste tokens patronizing gpt lol
I dont understand why people are even interested in these fools. On how they want to share their vision on how to get rich, independent and other crap. I also think its a big fundamental flaw in our society. People should be interested in people who can actually do something useful for society. Follow those people amd see them as an example. 10 times more guaranteed success. And you feel a lot happier then all these jealously infected people.
> Even if this is unrelated to the actual story, I find it a tiny bit disturbing. Is this the new standard practice? Let some robot spew out paragraphs of text to convey the scientist research?

I wouldn't be surprised if that statement wasn't a bold face lie, and Raphael Luque was just stapling his name to papers and proceeded with a clickfarm-like business model, where he sells the impact that his publication metrics has on institutions who request his services.

The defiant tone in his reply is evocative of other corruption cases where the criminal is so confident in his clever scheme that he even taunts defiantly everyone to challenge it. Even the old "I don't have a cent in my bank account" bullshit excuse is as old as time. Next he might just say that he only has good, generous friends who give him some presents from time to time.
Those who can't but try and fail and those who never even try are generally forgotten. That leaves behind just those who are successful at doing and/or teaching as the subject of ... aphorisms.

With a ROM, you could at least make a claim that it was your backup copy. I have no such claims to Facebook’s model.
If the relative wind is mostly coming at you from the direction you're traveling, then the component of the relative wind in the direction of the ship is negative. So I'm having trouble figuring out how this actually works to convert that into a force going in the ship's direction. Do you have a quick primer for how the physics of it works? Like a small explainer of this claim: "standard sails can still produce forward thrust as long as the wind is at least 20 degrees off from directly in front of the vessel"

Thanks! But as for the two problems (bad APIs and bad firmware on SSDs), we should do both!

Personally I don't have influence over my solid state devices, but linux is opensource. We should absolutely fix linux to have better APIs here, even if the underlying devices lie sometimes.

It might even help with the firmware. The reason for SSDs to lie about flush commands is so they look better in benchmarks. If linux had a better API (with barriers, write groups, transactions, whatever), then benchmarks would probably depend less on fsync. Maybe, eventually, we can solve that problem too.
No, invalidated science fiction. The science being invalid. Meaning the vocal cords were the weak link. When it was not.
This is fascinating.

I selected Oracle 11g, and entered the following:

Select employee separation date, and convert the date to text so that it sorts the same as the original date. Do not use an order by clause.

Response:

SELECT
CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), separation_date, 101) AS separation_date_text
FROM
employees

Point 1:

Converting to date format 101 appears to be a SQL Server idiom, not Oracle.

Point 2:

Format 101 appears to be mm/dd/yyyy, while I hope it is clear to any human reader I was looking for a format along the lines of yyyy-mm-dd.

If I had selected SQL Server and if it had chosen format 102, I think that would've worked. So close!

Ask HN: Ethics on Interviewing as a Future Competitor?
Hi,

I've been job-searching for a few weeks now, since I don't think my start-up has legs. A recruiter from a company recently reached out to me, and I was interested in it both because (1) they'd built an open-source project I liked, and (2) I knew my company was building something very similar, and even did a product analysis of the other company.

I'm genuinely interested in joining the other company. But I don't have a clear sense of what I should be sharing with whom. My own company's product isn't out yet, so I don't feel comfortable sharing with the other company (which I would likely join instead of my own company) that we're building a competing product -- though I'm not on the team that's working on it.

I also don't feel fully comfortable asking probing questions about the business or engineering of the start-up, even though it's really important to do so to evaluate a company before joining -- it feels kind of wrong for me to be getting good information that I could potentially then use to help my own company's product.

Does anyone have advice on how to navigate this situation?

Thanks.
Somewhat OT, but I feel like this is such an underappreciated aspect of recent LLMs: Not just their ability to generate text - but their apparent effectiveness in making use of arbitrary tools to interact with their environment to achieve some goal. It seems like we're just at the beginning of this with the MRKL and ReAct papers, there will be a ton more awesomeness coming in this area I'm sure.

Ask HN: How Do I Advance in My Career?
Hello!

I'm an Iraqi citizen, working remotely for a US-based pre-seed startup, I found the job through my connections and it was my second ever job after getting my BSc in CS degree. My first job was a tutoring job not software engineering.

My current CV is not really interesting, I have 2 jobs under the experience section, one is not even related to software development! I don't have much side projects to being with, I lately started doing FrontendMentor challenges and sharing them on my GitHub account.

My long term goal is to get a job abroad in the EU, and I want to start building experience but I don't really know what to do!

Are certifications useful for software engineers? Should I get certified?

I am open for ideas.

Thanks!

How to elegantly organize async rust code?
Dumb question: What does it mean to "train" an LLM on something? I've used Llama Index to create an index based on a large dataset which I can then query. Is that what it means? Or is it something else?
>unrelated startups or making money

The thing about these courses, especially if they're about tech and advertised on twitter or reddit, is that they don't have to be directly about startups or making money. You simply have to reference money on your feed, and vaguely connect your course to this, and people buy. You can release a course just based on Rust, and people will still flock to it because your bio references making 50k a month or whatever the case may be.

Nothing will ever sell as much as the mere potential of the buyer becoming rich or attractive. There are entire billion dollar industries based on this. People have become NYT best sellers because of this pitch.

And so I'm not surprised at all your course has made substantially more than a serious startup product. While it's true, courses are perpetual, the ones with high quality content aren't really - they have to be rewritten and recorded over again with updated information. If this wasn't true, then MIT would have stopped posting newer courses online years ago. So these courses often have very little to do with content or sales channel, instead again it goes right back to this potential to become rich. It's a very very powerful motivator to spend. So powerful they spend, and never care about the content, hence being unwatched. They do it over and over again, making everyone else richer ironically.

So make sure you're well aware of that before making any crucial decisions about your startup, not all lessons are meant to be applied to it.
From the Github project readme

>Agent: (since 1.15) An Agent is a component that is powered by an LLM, such as GPT-3. It can decide on the next best course of action so as to get to the result of a query. It uses the Tools available to it to achieve this. While a pipeline has a clear start and end, an Agent is able to decide whether the query has resolved or not. It may also make use of a Pipeline as a Tool.

Emphasis mine. Having tinkered with LangChain I think the idea of a recursive and/or graph-oriented model is going to yield interesting phenomena in the overall feel of these language models. LangChain agents are already super impressive.

Oh, older. In the 1970s and 1980s there were ads in the back of Popular Mechanics and the like that advertised pamphlets that you could send away for from people who "made it big" and "wanted to share it with others" but asked for a small fee ($5 or $10, which was more than that is today) to show that you were "serious" about wanting to learn the secrets to become rich.

Yes technically, but I think you're unlikely to notice it in practice.

In the worst case, because of buffering, your Netflix video might take an extra 10 seconds to start and then you'd notice no interruptions (unless you're skipping back and forth). But even that worst case would be unlikely to really be an issue.

For example, are you ever interrupted by someone else in your household turning on another TV? It would be similar.

You wouldn't want to share with your neighbor if they are actively abusing this with torrents or some other constant high bandwidth activity, but ideally you'd pick a neighbor you already know well and can trust.
A Corolla is twice as efficient (or more) than a 4Runner but like the Model 3, it will get stuck going on a curb so it’s not really comparable.
If they used SMS to identify the customer, isn't it a form of authentification? Having the credit card/credit card info is the first factor and the second factor seems to only have been being able to receive the SMS to confirm it wasn't fraud.

I've experienced better banking apps which did use SMS at the initialization, but coupled it with other identifying factors (eg the phone IMEI or a code sent through postal services). If these app needed to be reinstalled the whole verification process would have to be redone.
Framework is selling Chromebooks and laptops pre-installed with Windows or BYO operating system. Windows and ChromeOS have a massive installed base.

System76 are still mostly selling rebadged generic laptops with their own custom linux distro (which I have no interest in). They do some good work but they are considerably more niche and don't really add much value to Framework which has the potential to grow much faster.

I have known of System76 and been interested in their products for almost 2 decades and I bought a generic laptop to match one of their models once because I didn't want to ship a rebadged machine from the other side of the planet and deal with the potential RMA/repair problems. I bought a Framework last year because they were happy to ship not just the product to me but any parts I needed to self repair. This ease of repair/ugrade could be just as appealing to a Windows/BSD user or anyone else. Months later Framework announce an AMD and battery upgrade option. This is something System76 can't do while they are slapping a badge on other companies designs.

The System76 collab with HP is a good example of what that company can do very well, bringing Linux customization experience to other manufacturers. Framework don't really need it and I would rather see them innovate on hardware than waste money on developing yet another Linux desktop environment.
