Who is "the industry"? My managers want me to succeed at the metrics. Research is too diverse for them to have real understanding of all of their underlings and their work so metrics become important. My peers (well, the ones I respect) know that the metrics are awful. The metrics seem to have the property that people who I consider successful do score well, but it's possible to score well entirely on the back of work with no scientific value too.
Nah, they'll run directly on your edge device. For 90% of tasks, there will be no market for paid or self-hosted inference.

Depends on your scenario, I guess. If we assume an engineer’s time is worth $75/hr and it would take an hour (much more or less depending on the size and complexity of the code base) to complete one of these tasks then this looks like a bargain, right?

>But couldn’t you argue the same thing is happening to Ukraine under a US sphere of influence? Isn’t that bad too?

I fully agree with you - NATO -is- the US Sphere of Influence made manifest. The difference (in my view, anyway) is that the US is a better master than Russia or China, at least at this moment in time. The US tries to keep appearances at least by treating its partners as, well, partners. And the NATO military officials do believe we're all peers, at least all the ones I've had personal dealings with. Russia does no such thing (see Belarus).

But an even bigger difference, and the most important one, is this: Ukraine seems to want the EU and NATO. Sure, there's the oft-used argument that Euromaidan had US hand in it, but the US does not by itself mobilize nearly one million people (by Russian sources - so they'd have reason to diminish those numbers). Besides, Ukraine has been moving towards the EU as a country (even if not accompanied by Russian-aligned politicians) for years before Euromaidan. There's the more realistic complication that Eastern Ukraine is far more Euro and NATO skeptical than Western Ukraine. But those are internal Ukrainian problems, and not something neither the US, the EU, nor the Russian Federation should meddle in except for calling for peace, negotiations, and compromise.
The kernel page cache already exists, and is used on read() too. The distinction is that instead of read() copying from the kernel page cache, mmap will map that page cache page directly into the user's memory address space.

It saves a copy on read, in exchange for a bit more overhead configuring the processes address space up front.

At this point, I'm moderately confident that their corruption has sold off the uranium (in most of their arsenal) to the power stations and many of the important aircraft parts to whoever wants them, while any tritium (or non-nuclear maintenance) involved has only been done on paper.

Also, if they used that, there wouldn't be a county left to take over. Look where Chernobyl is, and its fallout zone, and ask how many other similar would happen as a result of using nukes to try to win.
I disagree. Here’s some examples.

Given that NATO is a defensive alliance, I don't see how such a rule would make much sense. Can you spell that rule out, and link to the official document?
To me, one of the greatest feat of the EU and NATO is the integration of countries like Poland and Romania to the west. These two countries were economically and socially stunted by decades of communist mismanagement, failed socialism and outright theft and genocide from Russia.

It's been truly incredible to see them grow and prosper.
Meetings are a huge opportunity to either value-add or value-subtract and a little planning can go a long way. Some pointers:

* Have an agenda and circulate it along with the invite. Let people know what you want to discuss so they can prepare.
* Know what outcome you want from a meeting and let people know in the invite. Again, it lets them come prepared and even better, make pre-meeting suggestions.
* Think about who needs to be involved. Do you really need everyone, or just one or two people. Again, agenda lets folks know if they can contribute or if someone else needs to be pulled in.

It's not that meetings are bad, but bad meetings waste lots of people's time. Good meetings save time.

Oh, and write down meeting minutes and publish results. The person you're recording this for is usually yourself. :>

Hi HN!

Our team at Bitloops has just published a Todo app that we think you'll find very interesting as a reference implementation. It's designed to showcase some advanced software architecture concepts like Hexagonal Architecture, DDD, BDD, CQRS, and Event Driven Architecture.

We've used a variety of open source technologies, such as TypeScript, NestJS, gRPC, Jaeger, Prometheus, NATS JetSteam, Grafana, Mongo, Postgres, and more to build a clean and modular codebase that's as close to production-ready as possible.

We know that learning these concepts and technologies can be challenging, which is why we wanted to share with you this comprehensive example we wish we had available when we started learning these concepts.

Check it out https://github.com/bitloops/ddd-hexagonal-cqrs-es-eda and we would love to hear your feedback. Let us know what you think and if you like it please star!

I can, right now, have GPT 4 write me sonnets on any topic. We are already beyond mere parroting.

People say "it's just parroting what it's heard"! But did GPT4's training data really include a sonnet about Minecraft creepers?

So they're not parroting. They're parroting PLUS something else. Plus some kind of analysis and transformation.

Your claim is that this transformation is superficial and won't become deeper as the neural networks become deeper.

We'll see.
True, and of course if someone buys 3x more clothing, then their opinion literally matters 3x more to the manufacturers.
I've been noticing this pattern on HN where someone analogizes current generation LLMs to parrots while simultaneously claiming to know the future of LLMs without any justification. Am I a "techbro" because I don't believe that we know much about what the future of LLMs has in store for us, or because I find the parrot analogy to be utterly specious?
“Denazification and demilitarization” is a hell of a euphemism for a nationalist military invasion of a neighboring country.

> artificially being heightened.
I am not sure what's the confusion. There is propaganda, I guess to each on its own.
I think in this case it's being used as a measure of thermal performance at "100%" usage at a particular voltage.

See the Wikipedia page on this and you'll see in modern processors that TDP is configurable.

>TDP specifications for some processors may allow them to work under multiple different power levels, depending on the usage scenario, available cooling capacities and desired power consumption. Technologies that provide such variable TDPs include Intel's configurable TDP (cTDP) and scenario design power (SDP), and AMD's TDP power cap.
What about the 0.01x Engineer? Much easier to achieve I think: do as little as possible without getting caught.
You can use this on any code (or text files) that you want. I've used this for rails, and it's great. I think you'd run into issues with more niche languages where the model hasn't had much exposure.
>This sounds like an assumption based firmly in the American value system. This part is often missed:

>> 25 days annual leave (rising to 30 after 5 years), plus 8 public holidays and the King’s birthday

So best case scenario, you get 20 days more paid leave than in the US (which typically only has 2 weeks or 10 days). That works out to approximately 7.7% higher effective wage.

ChatGPT is not good when it needs to answer directly. If you let it lead itself to the right answer it's pretty good.

# Kira

I found this sequence: "0, done, 2, free, 4, hive"

Reason step-by-step about the pattern.

Consecutively continue the sequence with four more entries.

Consecutively reflect on your answer and fix mistakes in case you broke the pattern.

# ChatGPT4

After examining the given sequence, "0, done, 2, free, 4, hive", we can notice an interesting pattern. It appears that the sequence alternates between numbers and words that sound like numbers. Let's break down the pattern:

"0" is a number.
"done" sounds like the number "1" when spoken aloud.
"2" is a number.
"free" sounds like the number "3" when spoken aloud.
"4" is a number.
"hive" sounds like the number "5" when spoken aloud.
Given this pattern, we can continue the sequence with four more entries:

The next number in the sequence is "6".
The word that sounds like the number "7" is "heaven".
The next number in the sequence is "8".
The word that sounds like the number "9" is "nein", which is German for "no".

So, the continued sequence would be: "0, done, 2, free, 4, hive, 6, heaven, 8, nein".

Reflecting on the pattern and the answer provided, the continuation seems to be consistent with the established pattern. We alternated between numbers and words that phonetically resemble numbers, resulting in the sequence "6, heaven, 8, nein" for the next four entries.

Great ideas thank you!
That's grandstanding and dodging my argument, which is that you shouldn't be giving LLM-suitable tasks to juniors anyway. They should get first pass at the interesting, complex work -- first in digestible bites, then with greater scope and independence as they become less junior. Is years of practice required to achieve non-junior skill? Sure, but years of copy-pasta-ing boilerplate (or otherwise writing gruntwork code that could be generated by GPT) won't count toward that time & experience.

Give your juniors real, interesting work and keep the GPT-level tasks away from them, and they'll actually improve.

> Why put up with Russia expansion

Why put up with NATO expansion? Russia's expansion is also totally defensive! wink-wink

> It's funny how Russia always pretend to be a victim

It's ironic how Russia is always assumed to be a passive unresponsive corpse with no concerns or perspective and memory of its own.

I wonder if it's even hypothetically possible for people to try to fairly grasp that perspective, otherwise Europe (and yeah, that includes Russia) would be an "interesting" place to be in the upcoming years.

I have an "unorthodox" audio-oriented "KVM" setup that looks like this:

{PC; Work laptop; …} → HDMI switcher → HDMI digital sound extractor → {S/PDIF DAC → Speakers; Monitor}

The HDMI switcher is actually just for A/V; I use Barrier for the keyboard and the mouse (well actually not mouse, but a trackball).

Though now that I think of it, I wonder if I could cobble something together with CEC to pass keyboard and mouse inputs through HDMI. In theory, that should be possible by attaching a ESP32 or something like that to the CEC pin on the monitor side…?

I agree there's a lot of "Agile" like BS around MLOps, but this article doesn't really give the prior art enough attention IMO. Data Engineering is a large part of MLOps, but there are unique parts of production ML engineering so it makes sense that it is (slowly) evolving its own discipline.

There are some people who have expertise in building production infrastructure, writing production code, and managing production data, but they are few and far between. So finding a "system" that lets data experts work with code experts work with infrastructure experts is important.

Many people say it's "just software engineering" or "just DevOps", but I feel like they are either not respective enough of the challenges of whichever pillar they are ignoring, or they don't even know that those challenges exist.

Filtering out the BS and finding the smart people who are writing interesting things about MLOps is difficult as they use the same terminology (and if the smart people switched, the BS people would follow, so they may as well stand their ground) but the BS cover doesn't mean that there's nothing substantial underneath.
Oops, thanks, I missed the date on that piece.
I recently repurposed an 8th gen desktop as a home server. As a part of the commissioning process I clamped down PL1/PL2 to keep power usage low in its new 24x7 application. A critical part of that was undervolting the CPU to maintain acceptable performance.

I guess Intel’s preferred solution would be to swap the CPU (an 8700k) for something like a 35W 8600T. What a waste.
