First of all congrats on creating a project that people want to use. I hope to one day join your ranks!

First impressions from someone who's had a hand in many large scale consumer centric UI's.

- I have a decent grasp on hypermedia as a concept. Not sure why I should care

- The focus on hypermedia strikes me as dogmatic

- it brings me back to the holy wars of gatekeeping "restfulness"

- or the battle to strictly adhere to semantic web

- Nooo, style classes can't be used in markup! that's what selectors are for and I'll literally die on this hill

- In the middle of the restful holy wars at least everyone could agree allowing clients to query data was insanity. Insanity i say!

- ok maybe graphql makes a little sense

- The htmx value prop seems to be scattered

- people who value "hypermedia"

- devs who have "javascript fatigue"

- based on sentiment I've seen users tend to be the latter

- As far as the tech itself (again quick first impression)

- i feel like the "api" is somewhat over-abstracted

- seems like much of the functionality would be a jquery one-liner but with the syntactic sugar of using html

- this pattern taken to the extreme reminds me of coldfusion markup and I don't mean that disparagingly!

- jquery is popular bc the api strikes a great balance between over/under abstraction

- syntactic sugar, effective primitives, plugins for the rest

- to contrast htmx seems to emphasize high-level functionality

On the ideological grounds of "semantic web" having logic and tags sprinkled thru the UI feels questionable and challenging from a unit testing perspective.

- Given a code sample with the exact same syntax what benefit is there to template/interpolate on the server vs the client side? The downsides seem pretty big. Strings with "X time ago" become stale. More network round trips. Interpolated data has to be parsed to be queried locally, but I guess you could add another network request. Given the typical react/SSR setup I don't even have to think about server vs client side and benefit from both worlds. Anyways sorry for the ramble - I'll be following!
> People want more REALITY in their life, not less.

Agree with most of what you said. But my take is, people would LOVE virtual reality if it were done well enough. We just don't seem to have the technical capability to pull it off well enough yet. Uncanny valley and all that.
Where exactly does this video "surface"? A random person on the internet?

If it's someone you know, with a reputation that makes them believable, then that's basically a criminal act and depends heavily on that person's reputation. There should be enough deference even without that, beyond simple harassment (which is what you're saying, where you lose your job or relationships).

Otherwise I'm not sure why your spouse or boss would rather believe some video coming from barelycartwheel48292@gmail.com is more believable than the person themselves.

Anyway, I was talking about overt scams not the wider cultural/social implications. This is a large new burden that will be imposed on society. We will learn to adapt and society will manage.
Do they have servers in US ? Who would be the Hertzner equvelent in US when it comes to low cost dedicated hosting
Indeed, this is why states that have the death penalty for murder have no murder.

Oh wait...
NPR needs money and they need editorial freedom, they seem to have both. I really can't fault them for that, editorial independence is the yardstick by which media should be judged unless there is outright ownership.
It would be helpful to add some numbers to your comment. 31% of NPR revenues are from member stations, and 13% of that 31% is federal funding. So ~4% of NPR revenue is indirect federal funds. This is, to give one example, substantially less than the portion of grocery store revenues that come from SNAP. Do we consider all grocery chains to be government sponsored businesses? Is Y Combinator government sponsored, since so many of its investments received money from the SVB bailout?

My answer would be yes, government support is essential for most businesses, but that makes this label useless in theory and malicious in practice when only applied to a tiny subset of government-funded companies.

19 Random digits is not enough to uniquely identify all human beings
The same is largely true of bio weapons. The difficult but is R&D, but a small group with access to a decent collage lab could recreate some dangerous shit if the people using it knew what to do.
Probably assumed it was a some kind of trap or scam.

LOL, this is funny. I'm imagining some bushy tailed assistant finishing all the data entry and asking for another task and being told to prove the Collatz Conjecture.
> they receive only a tiny percentage of their funding from the government

There are at least two ways they get government funding:

- direct funding from the federal government

- payment from member stations (at least 31% of revenue) who are themselves supported by government funding

Without looking at the funding sources of each NPR member station, it's hard to come up with a good estimate, but it's probably a double digit percentage, which exceeds what I consider 'tiny'.

Well, this site is a big reason I got the insight to focus on account redundancy over disk redundancy. Lots of posts over the years of people locked out from all the big clouds in a panic trying to see if an employee will see their cry for help on HN.

I do NOT want to be making that post!
And this proves they're not government funded / affiliated how?

Didn't they tweet that their funding by the government was so minuscule that they shouldn't be labeled state-affiliated? You cannot simultaneously say that while also declaring you can't exist to your full capacity without government funding.
I'm not sure that SF does have more of a mental health or addiction problem. It certainly is visible in SF, but other cities have worse statistics depending on what specifically you're measuring.

eg: https://drexel.edu/uhc/resources/briefs/BCHC%20Drug%20Overdo...

I'd say the reason it is more visible in SF is due to a combination of the density, walkability, and policies that don't hide the problem as much behind locked doors.
Break even if you don’t count the fines. And employment lawsuits. And unpaid rent. And the rapidly diminishing user base. And the flight of advertisers.

It’ll be truly break even at zero. Getting to zero will be a challenge though. I think a lot of those things will follow the company through bankruptcy.
All people need is hearing about a single case of somebody being punished for self-defence (and not even necessarily with imprisonment if the judicial process is painful enough) to turn them off from sticking their neck out.
>The nRF54H20 boasts multiple Arm® Cortex®-M33 processors and multiple RISC-V coprocessors.

It is a start, but they have not let go of the legacy architecture yet.

They're taking their time to fully adopt the industry standard.
My guess is the landlord's invariably choose the cheapest models that check the box; or that everything out there just sucks for some reason.
> it's VERY toxic for newcomers who don't fit a specific mold.

I have not experienced that ... at all. Surely this is highly instance dependent.
> The current design for the crossing is a single-span suspension bridge with a length of 3,300 meters. That’s 60 percent longer than the Canakkale Bridge in Turkey, currently the world’s longest suspension bridge, which spans 2,023 meters. With pylons towering in at 380 meters (1,250 feet), the Messina Strait bridge would also be the world’s tallest by structural height, edging out the Millau Viaduct in France, which is 342 meters tall. It would be able to carry 6,000 road vehicles per hour and 200 trains per day, and since the span would be 65 meters above the water, naval traffic would be able to pass undisturbed beneath it.

That is crazy! I’d love to see this built, and super glad to see the design includes rail traffic.
Lets take an example from Demo of =GPT3() as a spreadsheet feature - https://twitter.com/shubroski/status/1587136794797244417 /// https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33411748

Consider the time it would take to do manual entry for each of those examples compared with the time it takes to verify that the generated content is correct.

"Are these the correct state and zip codes?" is much faster than typing it by hand. You just ask yourself "is MA the correct state code for Massachusetts? Yep, next" rather than "Massachusetts that's... (lookup) MA, type MA; next that one is MI, already a state code ..." and down the list.

I would be willing to content that GPT will do the list faster and with better accuracy than a human doing the same work (that would also need to be checked for correctness).
Ask HN: Have you ever looked at/bought anything from the AWS marketplace?
Our family has had this sort of 2 factor authentication for years. The rule is that when/if something goes sideways, we have a secret pass-phrase that must be used for the other party to be taken seriously. It's something that we won't say, as a general rule, but would make sense as part of a regular conversation if you didn't know what you're listening to.

We did this when an elderly relative got scammed by the 'your son has been arrested' type of scam. It became obvious to us that we needed something to verify that the person contacting us was legitimately the person we thought it was.

It's not hard to do and it doesn't require technology. Just like disaster planning and home inventories; it's just that most people don't think about this kind of thing until it's too late.
I agree to some extent, but when the federal government is funding similar organizations with a similar mission, they have a strong incentive to work together. Public radio stations are operated and listened to by the kind of people who like NPR programming.

It's more like a federal employee who works for NPR and believes in NPR's mission donating to NPR. Yes, it's not compulsory, but the money is flowing towards entities with closely related missions that have a strong incentive to cooperate.

But again, I agree with you that the voluntary nature of the cooperation makes it quite different from merely some kind of shell game.
Maybe that's the problem, I only ride 15,000km a year or so (used to ride more when I was racing, but life came in the way)

Very similar rules work in Europe.

> ARM is open

Qualcomm still has a 60-70%+ market share in the $300+ Android phone market and their gross profit margin was similar to Intel until last year so it's obviously doable. And XScale/Intel was probably the best positioned company to dominate the ARM SoC market back in the mid 2000s.
We do know of shady companies that sell "own this phone" USB devices to governments, but AFAIK they only sell to governments and the details aren't available to the public.

I have never heard about a non-government sponsored attacker doing that kind of thing. If this is relevant or not to you, it's a matter of your threat model. If I were a journalist, I would be very weary. Personally, I don't plug my phone on random outlets and don't plug random devices on my computers, but it's clearly an overreaction.
You could use the GPT-4 API to classify posts as likely to be about GPT/LLM/AI and filter them out.

Let me code a PoC and submit it to HN!
HSBC are fantastic, cannot recommend them enough (although they only have branches on the coasts).
I understand the hesitancy in some respects. Longtime Mastodon users fear a mass migration of the toxic elements of Twitter into what has been their private sphere. If Mastodon becomes Twitter 2.0 then we have solved nothing.
They don't. Just because you say you do doesn't make it so. When a big part of your funding comes from the people that can vote to cut it at any moment you do not have true independence.

This is as silly as the argument saying the 1st amendment isn't violated by social media when you have the government literally asking these companies for censorship.

Very few, fortunately! I don't use Google services for these things, nor do the vast majority of my friends and family.

Someone is missing a massive opportunity that won't present itself again.

As every big entity and celebrity quits twitter, have an exact clone ready, it almost doesn't matter what the name is.

They don't need to be exclusive on it, just have all those entities cross-post and slowly over the next few years it will build to critical mass.
Does the federal government assert editorial control over NPR?
You can easily apply AI to the generation of fake accounts used to amplify the message, this is a tried and true playbook that can now be enacted at lower cost and with much greater speed.

That you have seen little evidence of it doesn't mean that it isn't happening, it could also mean that (1) you're looking in the wrong places, (2) that it is so good that you don't detect it and probably other explanations besides those.
It depends on what it is.

If it is some exotic fashion brand that few people had heard about I would not be worried about fakes. If it was Nike however I would only buy online from the Nike store and certainly not Amazon.

What I found about online stores for high fashion brands is that your credit card gets stolen at a high rate, the first thing my son bought with his debit card was a pair of Beretta pants (same as the gun) and they had a breach.
Email stands as a notable counter-example.
If you've failed to pre-arrange, you could always just ask something personal.

"Sorry Sally I know you've been kidnapped, but before we continue, what was the name of our first dog?"
...It absolutely is a shortcoming. Python is the second-most popular language out there, despite its awful performance, largely because of its comprehensive stdlib. (First is JS, because web).

And I don't understand how you can't see the irony of praising a "lean" stdlib immediately after saying every "actual" developer has to add the bloat of importing lodash.
Are you feeding an army? I can't even imagine buying enough food at one time to even fill a small sedan
Stop spreading FUD. That's not how self defense laws work in California.

You absolutely have the right to brandish, and use, a gun to defend yourself and/or your family if your home is being invaded. Or even on the street.

Stand your ground laws are about the right to use violent or deadly force in a situation where you are not at home and could otherwise retreat and avoid harm. Also, California has the Castle Doctrine (Penal Code 198.5 PC, https://www.shouselaw.com/ca/blog/penal-code/does-california...).
That is a now incorrect, and I will get the team to correct it. The max is 64TB (the size of a EBS volume, https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/volume_c...)

Thank you for pointing it out
I've long thought that a service like Twitter is a public utility and should be run in a democratic way with government funding. The tragedy of Twitter only confirms that. I hope that a billionaire creates a Twitter clone and grants oversight to it to a democratically elected government body. I don't think it should have ads, because that would give advertisers influence. I think we should all fund it so we the public and have a public square for discussion that is neutral. We can all debate what kind of speech that we allow and vote on that
Shah was convicted of five counts of mail fraud, 10 counts of wire fraud, two counts of bank fraud, and two counts of money laundering. Agarwal was convicted of five counts of mail fraud, eight counts of wire fraud, and two counts of bank fraud. Purdy was convicted on five counts of mail fraud, five counts of wire fraud, two counts of bank fraud, and one count of false statements to a financial institution. The defendants face a maximum penalty of 30 years in prison for each count of bank fraud and 20 years in prison for each count of wire fraud and mail fraud. Purdy faces a maximum penalty of 30 years in prison for the count of false statements to a financial institution. Shah faces a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison for each count of money laundering. A sentencing hearing will be scheduled at a date to be determined. A federal district court judge will determine any sentence after considering the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors.

damn. they better hope Elon Musk invents life extension or something ..that is a loooong time. Excessive even.
I once worked at a place where the security team had a USB stick delivered to all the desktops with some digital brochure about not trusting strangers or some such. Not the cyber security team, but still.
Amazing.

Love databricks.
This is great - the caps on image size / mime type per bucket is super useful
It's way too early to tell. I'm betting that projects will be able to fine tune LLMs against their code bases and documentation, making it easier to adopt new open source projects because mini-GPTs will help new users get set up with their exact use case instead of having them dig through a bunch of semi-irrelevant examples.
This is likely as currently only elevenlabs has the publically available technology to do this and is SaaS only (and i presume requires law enforcement traceable usage after that first weekend and 4chan's fun with it)
Would be nice to have something like that in Canada
HBO Max to Be Renamed ‘Max’ with Addition of Discovery+ Content
I suppose a solution to this would be something like pre-war iron. We would have to rely on archived sources, like Wikipedia past edits, that come from before ChatGPT existed.
A long time ago. I’ve offered products there too.
These are just strawmen, you were the one that asserted things are a certain way now compared to the past, which is objectively not true, and was responded to accordingly. Now, after being called out for the lie, now you are asking "why can't we work towards a solution" - well, why didn't you say that in the first place?

Key quotes:

> Now China is positioning itself to command the next big innovation in rechargeable batteries: replacing lithium with sodium, a far cheaper and more abundant material.

> And sodium batteries come with a big advantage: They keep almost all of their charge when temperatures fall far below freezing, something lithium batteries typically do not do.

> Chinese battery executives said in interviews that they have figured out in the past year how to make sodium battery cells so similar to lithium ones that they can be made with the same equipment. Chinese giant CATL, the world’s largest manufacturer of electric car batteries, says it has discovered a way to use sodium cells and lithium cells in a single electric car’s battery pack, combining the low cost and weather resistance of sodium cells with the extended range of lithium cells. The company says it is now prepared to mass produce these mixed battery packs.

> The most immediately promising use for sodium batteries is for electric grids, the networks of wires and towers that transmit electricity... Sodium batteries need to be bigger than lithium ones to hold the same electrical charge. That is a problem for cars, which have limited space, but not for electricity grid storage.

> Unlike lithium batteries, the latest sodium batteries do not require scarce materials like cobalt, a mineral mined mainly in Africa under conditions that have alarmed human rights groups. The newest sodium batteries also do not require nickel, which comes mainly from mines in Indonesia, Russia and the Philippines.
That takes way too long though. Creating/training/testing an LLM can be automated. Why do the interviews at all, why pay a hiring manager at all, when you can just do everything virtually and have an AI spit out a list of names to send offers to and how much each offer should be?
Can someone recommend something like a Micron pen but with a chisel rather than round tip?

I greatly prefer chisel tips/nibs but I like the convenience of felt tip pens as well as waterproof ink that dries quickly and doesn't smear.

The closest thing I've found is a fine tip calligraphy marker, but they don't seem to last very long.

Alternately something like a Flair pen but with a chisel tip and waterproof ink.

I haven't tried the Pilot Parallel, but the finest nib is 1.5mm which seems too bold, and it's basically a fountain pen so is likely to have the same issues of messiness and running out of ink.

edit: the Staedtler Pigment Liner Marker has a 2mm chisel tip but I'd like something smaller.
> You really have to be a self starter and find something you like.

Too true. And sometimes you stumble upon the fun. For instance, a long, long time ago (circa 2008 or 9...) I thought Stealth Bombers sounded cool so I started to learn the skills, not realizing they were essentially useless.

Except that they could be used somewhat productively to fuck around deep in enemy territory and be a nuisance to their mining and logistics efforts. Was a I troll? Basically. Did I have any real impact on the war effort? I doubt it. But hey, I did blow up a few mining barges and annoy people.
Yes. That's why I specified "simple page loads". If your frameworkless website is slow then the fault doesn't lie with the nature of http or the intrinsic overhead of full page loads. You've got a shitty backend framework, database or network.
I'm aware that under the status quo a person can be denied banking, online payments, etc. without appropriate systems of redress.

In blockchain, redress is impossible. That's part of why it's so lucrative for fraudsters.

The failure modes in monetary systems are human, not technological -- and blockchains fuck humans. They make the problem worse.

The sales pitch for blockchains is a lie. The problem is real, but this isnt the solution. This solves only the needs of criminals in the strongest sense: people out to get other people.

Regulation will pop these schemes and nothing will be left -- it took 10-30 years to regulate credit cards. Hopefully regulators will step in sooner here.
Yes, and this gives their funders editorial control how?
Weird behavior to you.

Never underestimate how much some people hate onions, and no they won't start up a new dating site to find people like themselves :)

I don't think they "blew it" but it could have been better. I think it would be better if they have a blurb about how it is very much like email; you pick a provider and sign up then after that you can message anyone else via your "address" and provider. Also, they could be a LOT more clear about which instances are accepting new signups.
