> But then your phone will have been with every port your battery pack has been with!

It's unclear to me what this means. I thought it works like this:

- Connect battery pack to USB port
- USB port tries to hack the battery pack, but it's too dumb, so the attempt goes nowhere. The charge flows nicely, though.
- Disconnect battery pack from USB port
- Connect device to battery pack
no, they were completely wrong on this full stop. The fed had to do an aggressive rate hike. By your logic the great depression and great recession was also transitory*
tbh you seem too focused on making HN happy, makes me wonder about your focus
Hi HN,

I maintain a chart generation service, QuickChart (https://github.com/typpo/quickchart), which renders millions of charts per day. The most consistent pain point for users is that charts require some programming ability, or at least a strict JSON schema.

The idea is to make chart creation more approachable. Instead of messing around with D3 or Chart.js for a one-off, you can just embed https://quickchart.io/natural/red_bar_chart in an image tag or iframe and call it a day. GPT generates a reasonable look & feel.

After you have a template that you're happy with, you can modify the chart with precision, e.g. https://quickchart.io/natural/red_bar_chart?data1=3,5,7. The idea is that you don't have to mess around with chart configs, hosting, etc.

I welcome your thoughts & feedback.
The OP indicated this in their original comment: "I asked what I should do to comply, and they banned my account 6 hours later."
Monthly numbers are in the 1-2% range, so no current inflation isn't above the Fed's "acceptable" inflation rate, it just isn't measured on a small enough scale for this release to talk about it.
So much of this article reads like an op-ed that I can't take it seriously.

Edit: for the downvoters, some excerpts:

> The BBC exchange showed Musk as alternately conciliatory and erratic.

According to whom?

> He also said that he's sleeping on a couch at work, that he followed through on his promise to purchase Twitter only because a judge forced him to, and that he should stop tweeting after 3 a.m.

this is a lot to say without any specific quotes

> Like so many policy decisions at the social network of late, Musk applied the label to NPR's Twitter account abruptly. It's still not clear why he became so animated about the issue.

Heavy use of adverbs and adjectives is like injecting opinion.

> For years, many journalists considered Twitter critical to monitoring news developments, to connect with people at major events and with authoritative sources, and to share their coverage. Musk's often hastily announced policy changes have undermined that.

Again, according to who??
information on US inflation would go nice with information on inflation in other countries, seeing as its the relative comparisons that matter here

the fact that they don't do this means....

We're getting pretty good performance on AWS Graviton3 for our data processing, their m7g is pretty good. Looks like they're banking on ARM taking off, with lots of new options in 2023.
Dietpi is what I switched to.

Maintained, light on logging unless you ask for it (saves your SD card from wear and tear), and focused on low host-os resource usage while still being Debian-based.
limited in usefulness.. seems that Lars kept a MembraneTranscript library dependency private
If you look at the breakdown lower in the page, 31% of NPR's revenue comes from member station licensing fees and of the member station funding 13% comes from government sources, so in total that would be 4%.
for the model to have an "internal stream of consciousness" it will have to be designed as such, or provided with a second model that observes it. Right now its intelligence is mechanistic, like a giant clockwork that won't even 'think' anything unless provided with input. Even if it s scaled to enormous proportions it will keep being clockwork
To be fair, a lot of engs made a lot of money writing code for this company. They were a huge ruby employer for many years. Lots of careers built off of working at Outcome Health.
People attempting to improve themselves and the world must face the fact that
improvement necessarily requires accepting that one is imperfect, since if one was perfect one could not improve.

> Design patterns show up across all "industries."

Strong agree, and I would argue that even if antiracism philosophy did not come from christianity it would likely arrive at a similar point due to the nature of the problem. Any sort of hill climbing algorithm that does not assume original sin is very unlikely to be effective.

I do think it is worth focusing on what one is doing right as well as what one is doing wrong. Turning a bad behavior (-1) into a good behavior (+1) is a 2 point improvement, whereas just improving a good behavior (+1) is only an increase of 1. However it is often easier psychologically to improve what you do well then to face your weaknesses and biases.
Not according to the calculator on https://www.bls.gov/ where $100 in March 2020 is $116 in March 2023

Lumber alone is $380 now, about the level it was in 2019. I'm old enough to remember the gnashing of teeth on this forum when lumber prices were unsurprisingly super high in 2020 and how that meant inflation on everything was really high.

I assume the same people will be claiming the opposite now and that deflation is a major problem
To be completely realistic, the AI would also need the ability to leave you on read.
Typically the asset crash happens after the fed pivots. Obviously correlation != causation, but just because inflation is coming down doesn't mean assets won't follow soon.
Does anyone knows any alternative simple open source MDM solution that works with Windows, Linux and Mac?
Again, so what?

People who do bad things often have complex motivations. That doesn't make what they did not bad. Whatever Holmes's internal state, she chose to have children that she knew she was very likely to have to abandon. I'm sure there are things in her character and history that might explain this, some more sympathetic than others. But are you claiming there's something that could justify that level of disregard for the wellbeing of children?
If you think GCC and coreutils didn't change the world and shaped the commercial Unixen themselves, think twice.
> If you trained an LLM against all the recorded discussions of Einstein - is it that different from talking to Einstein himself?

The fact that an LLM does not have the ability to think and understand things is a bit of a giveaway.
Except we can't tell 1 ms of time passing from 2 ms.

An LLM's temporal resolution is certainly worse, on the order of minutes to months, but not fundamentally different. By fundamentally different I mean like comparing color and time.

An LLM would have no problem living as a sloth.
She can afford to freeze her eggs. She knew there was a good chance these kids would grow up without her, and she chose to gamble.
For some definition of "Inflation".

The original defintion was an increase in the amount of money.

This amount can be seen here:

https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/BOGMBASE

We are still in an experiment which started in 2008. Unprecedented amounts of money have been printed. All this new money creates waves throughout the economy. With all kinds of complex indirect consequences for prices of different types of goods and services.

It will take many more decades to see how this experiment actually plays out.

The rise of stock prices and the downfall of Silicon Valley Bank are just the first ripples we can witness.
Sorry, no. I'm willing to assume just for the sake of argument that Reagan messed things up.

If things are still messed up 40-50 years later, it's not due to "Reagan". That's just an excuse.

As for the idea that the mental health infrastructure was some kind of wondrous utopia before "Reagan", I draw your attention to this:

Oh, it was strictly a joke that was stretching the condom/STI metaphor.
Yes, but it's also highly unlikely that if you're trying to push transactions per second into that kind of range that you'd be doing it with individual processes per transaction. You'd also be likely to be hitting IO limits long before the number of file descriptors is becoming the issue.
I probably would have guessed that software vulnerabilities were rare for just plugging your smartphone into a USB port (without some additional user approval on the device). Obviously a port could probably be easily configured to just fry your jack/device but that’s not a big part of my threat model anyway.
Twitter 'no longer exists' as a company after Elon Musk merged it with X Corp
Exxon gets a larger percentage of its income from the federal government in subsidies, yet we seldom (if ever) apply "government funded" to that organization.

What's your definition of "state funded"?
While I love all these stories of turning your friends and loved ones into chat bots so you can talk to them forever, my brain immediately took a much darker turn because of course it did.

How many emails, text messages, hangouts/gchat messages, etc, does Google have of you right now? And as part of their agreement, they can do pretty much whatever they like with those, can't they?

Could Google, or any other company out there, build a digital copy of you that answers questions exactly the way you would? "Hey, we're going to cancel the interview- we found that you aren't a good culture fit here in 72% of our simulations and we don't think that's an acceptable risk."

Could the police subpoena all of that data and make an AI model of you that wants to help them prove you committed a crime and guess all your passwords?

This stuff is moving terrifyingly fast, and laws will take ages to catch up. Get ready for a wild couple of years my friends.
JRE - Joe Rogan Experience
Most western countries have media comparable to NPR. In the UK that would be BBC, in Italy there is Rai, in Spain RTVE, in Portugal RTP and in Germany there is ARD. That makes me believe that they warrant their own label.
What is price gouging exactly? How can we determine whether a particular price level is due to gouging or other factors?
Yes, that's why I get people to do these repetitive tasks instead. Humans are well known to have a 0% failure rate, especially when they are bored out of their minds.
I actually like the filesystem and its hierarchical structure. What is missing is speedy access via alternative ways similar to views in SQL where you can narrow down your criteria based on filenames, dates, and contents. Finding something in a huge collection of source files used to be very slow until I discovered ripgrep which is insanely fast.

Hierarchical structure has been criticized a lot in recent years, and rightly so as for the naive view which insists that there is One Right Way to categorize things. But the not-so naive view acknowledges that any hierarchy is artificial and ultimately arbitrary, while it at the same time asserts that it can also be useful. Think of a library: which one is more useful to your most frequent use cases, one that keeps books ordered in divisions and subdivisions of subjects on the shelves, or one that keeps books in random order? I think it is the first. You'll still need one or more catalogs and one can still debate where that book on maths for the engineer goes (maths, engineering, or text books); that doesn't mean the hierarchy of the books on the shelves is useless.
Or Tesla, for which government carbon credits makes up roughly the same percentage of revenue that NPR gets from government funding.
The issue is that they are marked as state affiliated, not state funded.

And i support every company that receive state funds, directly or via tax breaks to be called 'state funded company'. That would have interesting repercussions.
I appreciate it. I do struggle with focus. Thank you for giving me a nudge.
Who wouldn’t resent being thrown in the same basket with the likes of Voice of America, Xinhua News Agency and Sputnik under the same label?
>I don’t think you can compare people’s carbon footprint because those people will exist regardless of jobs.

But they don't have to /s
I would assume a single account with 8.7 million followers isn't a big deal to Twitter. It's not like the 8.7 million NPR followers are unique to NPR and are going to disappear. Those 8.7 million followers probably follow 8.7 million other things themselves.

I'd be willing to guess a single Kardashian has more followers than NPR (maybe I'm too cynical). Eventually, the way Musk is running Twitter, he'll give a free blue check mark for the Brawndo Corp. Maybe he could just rename Twitter to "Ow, my balls"

> in this work, we identify and study four key stages for successfully teaching algorithmic reasoning to LLMs: (1) formulating algorithms as skills, (2) teaching multiple skills simultaneously (skill accumulation), (3) teaching how to combine skills (skill composition) and (4) teaching how to use skills as tools.

So it's not an emergent property of LLM but 4 new capability trainings.
Noone is saying you can't teach these things to an Agent, just that these are not emergent abilities of the LLM training. by default a LLM can only match token proximity, all trainings of LLMs improve the proximity matching (clustering) of token but they do not teach algorithmic reasoning. it needs to get bolted on as addon.
What's your definition of journalism?
omg yes, between banks bailouts, law mandated insurances, private-pensions plans and companies with a huge public contribution (such as SpaceX); it would finally open the eyes to the public how much of "capitalism" is in fact politically created and directed.

So yes, I really would like to see this.
Intel actually designed a CPU for the iPhone. Apple didn't use it because it failed to meet their performance/thermal requirements. Intel was not happy about this.

Plenty of things were major issues in SF well before they diffused to the rest of the country. It’s why the American right is so dead set on villainizing SF’s progressive government:

LGBT rights, recreational drug use, Nimby-ism (to your point), Internet socialization/commerce, rejecting elevated freeways, freely moving between jobs multiple times in a career (see: The treacherous 8), voting by mail, bicycle commuting, living alone/not having a traditional family structure.

SF is a place full of wealthy college educated people and as the saying goes “The future is here, it’s just for the rich.”

I’d argue that national trends around a drug use, housing policy, family structure, and Internet usage (phones make being homeless way better than before) are going to make homelessness much more common everywhere, SF is just at the frontier.
Just downloaded https://squeak.org/ to play around with this concept.

I wonder if there is already a modern tool/suite for Node/Python inspired by Smalltalk...
Ask it to reason step by step, and nudge it the right way. It's amazing.
The toggle on and off switch would be very unApplely, yes. That does not mean you have to stop thinking, it means you need industrial designers on board.

USB-condoms are a thing you know; average (and below) users know exactly what those do and can figure out how to use them in a few seconds. I bet if Apple's genius marketeers would come up with a catchy name (like the i-Safe, but cooler) those would easily sell at 3,000% the production cost. But they never will because they tarnish the brand, and make the users think their devices are not safe by default.

But then, if the device are indeed not safe by default... are we talking about criminal charges here? Would it be fraud, or what is the name of the crime where you knowingly sell hazardous stuff to the public?

It's insane to me that we're all just supposed to give a US army program literally titled PSYOPS the benefit of the doubt because their corporate partners said there was nothing to worry about. Does anyone remember that the entire mainstream media was in full support of everything the bush administration did in the middle east, NPR included?
Nice. Showing off Neoverse's superior single-core load/store abilities.
The societal ramifications of such advancements are potentially very disturbing. What I've recently written on the topic myself ...

Human to human bonds are going to be more broken than ever before. There is going to be a great appeal to bond with a machine that never tires of your conversation and will eagerly respond just as you would dream that the perfect human should, but never will. A deceptive temptation that will leave you embracing a hollow illusion. With every conversation the AI will know you better and will be able to model from billions of conversations until it will essentially know your thoughts, predict your thoughts

Ubuntu is fine for that use case.
Is it really being reminded, or is it the public declaration of the oath and your acceptance of it that makes it effective?

It's much like reciting wedding vows. You are making a very public promise, with a real threat of social ostracization if you break it.
Sure, you can use superstition as a slur for things you don’t believe in.

But if you want to use the word in its scientific meaning, then Christianity, or Islam or whatever religion, is not a superstition.
Sysbench is a better synthetic test in my opinion because it does a lot of varied grinding instead of trying to evaluate the entire CPU using just one very narrow and specific task. Even on the same Linux distribution there can be a lot of differences between x86 and Arm builds because OpenSSL cannot be entirely orthogonal in its use of assembly optimizations and CPU crypto acceleration, even for the RSA benchmark.

To offer a somewhat more varied example I've tested the POV-Ray benchmarker on Debian 11 on Oracle's Ampere Altra servers ("A1.Flex") versus an identical setup/build running on a 2 GHz EPYC 7281-based x86-64 VPS, and on that single-threaded test the Arm VPS handily outpaced the EPYC with almost 2x the performance.

I suspect they're saying that the KKK itself was a "thundering herd of dumb".
Honest question: why do you see it as your job to defend Elon Musk online? I see a lot of people doing it and I find it strange. Why do you care?

It's not that bad at all - that's my point. I use protonmail and for some other addresses, I self host.

it was almost the same for me. 25 years into my career, and deemed basically unhirable (after years consulting for gov where titles don’t translate back to private sector)
after 6 months of job hunting, where even friends who were SVPs couldn’t get me a timely interview, i was left feeling so dehumanized i just gave up and stopped job hunting.

then i got an idea. in 2008 i created a company where i wanted to work after not being able to find an agency in NYC that i felt had good culture.. so i should do it again. this time, however, there would be a mission… i want to unfuck how hiring is done.

if, as job seekers we can share knowledge of how recruiters and hiring companies behave, we can spare each-other grief and unnecessary pain and suffering when we look for work.

recruiter reviews, by candidates for candidates.

it’s very new, has quirks that i’m working out, and is simply a chrome extension that runs on top of LinkedIn. reviews contribute to a calculated score, and the details of any review are never shared with anybody. job seekers come first, recruiters get held accountable for the reputations they deserve.

https://hirerank.cc give it a swing, let me know what you think.
Fed policymakers had predicted there wouldn't be any rate hike before 2024, then they predicted there would be two by late 2023[1]. We've had nine rate hikes since then.

I think the correct reading of the situation is that inflation wasn't transitory, which lead to the Fed raising rates much soon, much higher, and much more frequently than they anticipated (which is why SVB ran into so much trouble), and the heavy rate hikes eventually got inflation under control (which was the entire reason for the aggressive rate hikes).

You mean leave the country? Yes, that option is there for those with enough money. It was there not just for a year but all the way back to 2014 when the alarm bells really started ringing.

Even though I regularly meet Russians who believe the West is "closed" for them because of the war, I don't think that's true (though I have no first-hand experience).

But even in Asia it's getting less and less viable. I have a friend who left recently and is currently on the verge of insolvency because apparently countries around the world tighten banking and visa regulations for those Russians who don't have millions of dollars. He doesn't see any way to get a bank account and get paid for online freelance work and country-hopping gets really expensive really fast.
