This is an excellent point. If you review my comment history I think you’ll find some of my most downvoted comments being about how rolling out the biggest infringements upon civil liberties since WWII, and then creating a financing program that media companies rely upon to survive, was one of the most corrupt things I’d seen during my life time.
I have tried to help him with that software before. It's in a niche CNC manufacturing type industry. You can find people discussing problems in forums sometimes, but even that was always sparse. Honestly I don't think you could even find proper docs for that software. I even tried asking chatgpt where to get the documentation for what it was telling us and it basically just said the help file in the program, but we looked and it was nowhere near as helpful as chatgpt answers. I don't know where it pulled all that info to be honest.
But even if it was out there, the ease at which it gave great answers that fit exactly what we threw at it made it 10x more (or more) valuable than spam filled and loosely related google results.
It's all off topic, but I've thought that what does the question of free will have to do with sentencing? That's just too metaphysical. Punishments surely have a function that's independent of free will.
I swear this kind of stuff is only going to get worse as people come to use and rely on ChatGPT and its ilk more broadly.

Dystopia? Idiocracy? I don't know, but I don't like it.
> I then push them on this until they realize that any implementation of the dictionary lookup function of a string would be o(n) at best, and as such the total runtime of the solution is O(n²).

Is n the length of the word or the length of the dictionary? And if it's the length of the word (<< the length of the dictionary), why does it matter if it's linear or quadratic?
I could name more, but let me clarify something. I’m not a fan of the SSPL, but I get why it was necessary.

It was rough seeing huge cloud providers profit off open source projects without giving anything back. When they offered competing hosting services with no value added (well, past “integrated billing”), no contributions or innovation, and drove their new customers to the documentation and libraries of the companies backing these projects, they crossed a huge line.

And it’s not just MongoDB. Or Elastic. Just look at all the “services” AWS offers, and note how many AWS actually invented or even contributed to…

Monopolistic practices forced a lot of companies to either shut down, or find a way to survive. I’m glad MongoDB decided to use the SSPL instead of shut down like so many others. I’m glad they’ve continued to thrive.

Changing to the SSPL isn’t ideal, but it only impacts people who want to sell hosted versions of the software (not users, self-hosted or otherwise). For those infinitesimal few selling hosted versions of the software, it doesn’t even stop them from doing what they want — it just stopped the monopolies from destroying something a lot of people dedicated a lot of effort to... That seems like a pretty amazing feat to me, given the reality...

I wish the OSI wasn’t so successful painting users of the SSPL as somehow betraying the open source community. And I wish the SSPL wasn’t necessary. But until there a better option, I’m ok with the SSPL…

Again, I say this with all due respect, and this is just my opinion. Corrections and new perspectives welcome!
Looks like they have the integration half of the equation. But also they need to plugin the summarization/synthesis utility to fully realize the value. There have been enterprise search apps in the past and they usually have failed because of A) too much data and no clear way to prioritize and B) keeping up with all the new systems that arise all the time.

If some kind of GPT pipeline could solve A above - and identify the relevant synthesis of data into a coherent answer it would be supremely useful. I usually can do a search in 3-5 systems manually - just getting the results while akward isn't the problem. The problem is knowing which nugget of info in 80 pages of slack search results is relevant to my problem.

I tried enabling this recently and I immediately noticed that websites started appearing in light mode instead of copying my system settings and displaying in dark mode. It seems like in it's efforts to make my fingerprint the same as everyone else's Firefox stops telling websites about my display settings. The issue immediately went away when I changed the setting back to privacy.resistFingerprinting = false.
This is surprising to me! I/my team do use such a linter rule (non-strict equals errors for all cases except directly comparing to null), and I don’t even notice it while reading code because the linter is satisfied, and because it reads as (obviously, to me) correct.

It never occurred to me that it could be so noticeable to others as to add any cognitive overhead. I’m not discounting that at all, to be clear, only that it’s not something I’d ever considered before now.
Err... as much I'd like to have a VR headset and use it, I simply can't.

I don't have time to immerse myself in the environment where I don't see the reality that surrounds me (as in, people which share my public transport, cars that stop at the traffic lights next to me, my kids running around me, people I work with, etc.). It's not that I need the reality, but I can't disconnect safely. Facebook is easy. Just reach the pocket, get the phone, a few swipes and you are using it. Be it in the office, around your kids, in the waiting room, ...

I don't see how VR can provide you a FB scale of users.
Nah, you're not. I often find myself wanting more data and stats when I read the interviewing.io blog as well.
This is nice to see, but it worth pointing out that it is years overdue. Mozilla dragged its feet for years about Tracking Protection and cookies in general, coming up with halfway measures while continuing to serve the needs of advertisers that had a lot of influence on the company. The end state of Total Cookie Protection was clear from the beginning. It is of course not easy to change the advertising based model, but it's not like Firefox is really more than an influencer of Google and Apple, its market share has all but disappeared. No, the motivation to take seven years to get to TCP was all about money, including big salaries and bonuses for Mozilla executives.
Lovely post on a great capability. Very direct intro. Love the commit quote. Showing the explain plan concludes nicely with impact. Love the density of useful information here.
I was just explaining why people like me don't like using pip as a system package manager, I'm not trying to turn this into a feature request :)

I have my solution and I think many others have their own. In my opinion it's perfectly fine to just state "platforms that don't have the necessary packages in their system package manager aren't supported, use at your own peril" so niche distributions making up the long tail of your users don't end up taking unreasonable amount of support and development time.
I'd love to see a link to where you can get the hardware.
We learned why you don't give anti-Semites the benefit of the doubt many decades ago. "It's just a joke" up until it isn't, and by then it's far too late.

The NZ mosque shooter's manifesto was almost literally one long 4chan meme thread. There were pages and pages of images and charts and memes that were (and still are) posted to 4chan every day. He openly stated he wasn't always racist and that /pol/ significantly changed his mind on the matter.

We take it serious because innocent people being murdered is serious.

Ask HN: How to switch to a new language and land a job?
I am a Python backend engineer seeking career advice from experienced professionals. I recently quit my job to address some health issues and now have time to contemplate my next career steps. With roughly six years of professional backend development experience with Python, I have only utilized Python for production development throughout my career. I am uncertain about whether I should continue with Python or switch to something else.

Python has served me well for the tasks I performed at work, primarily developing REST or GraphQL monolith APIs. However, I am getting bored using the same technology repeatedly, and I would like to learn a new language and secure a job in it. I am considering Golang or Elixir, in particular. However, I don't see a clear path to achieving this because my production experience is only in Python, and every Golang job, for instance, necessitates prior Golang experience.

Can you provide any advice on how a software engineer can switch to a new language and secure a job in it?
It used to be common here in the US too, to have a cap on the amount an insurance policy would pay out.

My first “adult”/non-parental healthcare insurance policy had a yearly maximum and a lifetime maximum. This was pre-Affordable Care Act.
Oh is not-Expert GPT3.5 and Expert just GPT4?
I don't think the reaction times would work.

Where it could add possible value is to dream up use cases.

give me some unusual and/or weird uses cases a driver or autonomous vehicle might come across while driving( on the high way, at a cross walk) etc.
I don't care. 4chan is one of the few large forums remaining on the internet where there's no downvoting, no flagging, and no dang-esque tone policers. I would be much more sad to see it go away than this place.
I think it's more natural than you might think. For example, my company laid off a lot of people to try to be profitable, and now they pay me more but I have a smaller team with tighter deadlines. I have no choice but to use gpt for a lot of my analysis, design, and code- which I've gotten pretty used to over the past year in my hobby time

The way I see it, if you code without it, you won't compete with the speed and value.

And they are not going to back fill those roles
No where close as aggressive. Windows 98 never interrupted your boot a few days after install "to complete the setup experience" asking you to subscribe to MSN or order a copy of Office 97.
Oh, look, instead of looking for actual evidence, you double down on trying to justify the choice of a known transphobic activist. Google a bit deeper. Of course, given your growing number of comments in this thread flagged for your own transphobic responses it's not surprising.
The civil rights movement was ~60 years ago, this is absurd even on its own terms.
Total Cookie Protection partitions all cookie-like data ("state") between the websites you visit, not just cookies. For a technical discussion, see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Privacy/State_P...

You can see which browsers partition state (and which don't) in the State Partitioning section of https://privacytests.org. Firefox passes nearly all of those tests because Total Cookie Protection is enabled by default.
I saw this: https://github.com/jankais3r/LLaMA_MPS

it runs slightly slower on the GPU than under llama.cpp but uses much less power doing so

I would guess the slowness is due to immaturity of the PyTorch MPS backend, the asitop graphs show it doing a bunch of cpu along with the gpu, so it might be inefficiently falling back to cpu for some ops and swapping layers back and forth (I have no idea, just guessing)
I do think you should account for the “out”, and not just the “up”.
Someone might say the same thing about trans people. Should I be extremely uncomfortable talking to a trans person? Of course not. Many people think I should though.

As for white nationalists, when engaging in discussion with someone you disagree with you have the opportunity to change their mind.

A public email for Twitter individuals
To be direct:

I build a tool that solves this problem:

Consider the following scenario-

Imagine an individual whose business relies on sending cold emails, a practice common across many industries. However, this person may blindly send out emails without much effectiveness.

That's where this tool comes in.

It leverages the enormous user base of Twitter, with over 450 million monthly active users, to make the process more effective. By targeting Twitter users based on their posts or connections, businesses or individuals can send more relevant messages, increasing the likelihood of a successful outcome.

In summary, this tool provides a more effective solution for individuals and industries that rely on cold email by leveraging the power of Twitter's vast user base.

It's an enterprise solution.

NOTE: You don't need email to this as long as a person holds a twitter account. Simply type out twitter username and email message and you are done.
Nothing to do with twitter DM's

I would love to discuss this opportunity further, to bring it to market with you and explore how this tool can disrupt the email landscape.

If you're interested, please let me know, and we can schedule a time to speak.

Thank you!
No more boring scripted dialogue. Now you get boring, procedurally generated dialog. About things that don’t matter, don’t make sense, or veer wayyyy off topic.

You fundamentally cannot make a random npc interesting because they are not supposed to be interesting. Ideally they say very little.
I want to say "I have a bridge in Brooklyn I'm selling, why not buy that too!"

But in software, so often there's no significant cost to lifetime subscriptions. Then it's just bastardy to revoke them.
Did I claim that those handful of examples, out of the countless other actions he's taken during his tenure at Twitter, were examples of him trolling? Was it not obvious that the latter part of that sentence, about fundamentally changing the way Twitter operates, could be considered separate from some of the "lighter weight" trolling he's done?

Is it possible that you're too heated for this discussion for you to be able to think about this subject objectively?
I'm guessing they trained it on most if not all of those datasets.
I always have it OpenToWork. Don’t see any meaningful downside.
It’s totally the opposite. John absolutely did care what the others thought, that’s exactly why he brought her there. He knew it would bother them, and that’s exactly what he intended and cared to do. He wasn’t unconcerned whether they would feel one way or another. He was entirely aware he was pushing boundaries, and he was doing it to see where he stood with the other band members, and how bad they wanted/needed him. Once again, I think your perspective reflects a lack of emotional development w/r/t how you imagine Yoko and John i.e. that they are simply just self-obsessed and oblivious to anything besides their own desires. It’s clearly the opposite, John knew exactly what he was doing, and why he was doing it and the risks it brought.

Your other point also reflects emotional immaturity. If my bandmate brought his gf to practice, I wouldn’t sit there and seethe at her (and it’s funny you describe it this way when the obvious takeaway from get back is how much her being there was a non-issue despite the visual and conceptual absurdity of her sitting there reading a book about the Beatles), I would bring it up with my bandmate. Like I pointed out before, and in Yoko’s case, she’s trying to do the right thing by her life partner, her lover, her husband, future father of her children, someone she was deeply into a heroin addiction with, which to her, supersedes anything she would owe to Paul or any other Beatle. It's pretty absurd for you to have suggested I was the one taking away her agency or infantilizing her, while you reject basic human emotions. You act like John passively asked her "Hey, wanna come to band practice?" wherein what he actually did was tell her that he needed her there in order to actually do it in the first place. This is all post-white album.

That’s why you seem especially emotionally immature, if not outright just selfish. You (a) project it onto Yoko and John in order to eschew any other reasonable explanation, and (b) think that your bandmate’s partner owes you more than she owes your bandmate and that to do otherwise would just reflect not caring or being “dense”. I’d like to think you’d be a better partner to a potential better half of yours, but hey, clearly you don’t care! I hope they don’t either!
That's intentional.

Uncommon settings being exposed to websites makes fingerprinting much more reliable.
Holy shit it's amazing you can hear up to 18k!
This seems to happen a bit too often tbh on all things Databricks.
GPT-4 thinks it's "The Quantum Thief" by Hannu Rajaniemi or "Glasshouse" by Charles Stross.

Correct ?
Emphasis on "a few". I can count the number of recruiters I've found worth keeping in my network in the long-term on one hand.
Isn't there a reasonable OpenGL shim on top of Vulkan?
> 100% accuracy up to about 13 digit addition

The graphs you just posted do not support that, they'd support at most 100% accuracy up to 4 digits.
How much do you need to commit to a subscription though?

If it's a few weeks just to watch Ozark, then fine. Just be careful to abandon your account and never renew if you wanna watch just one show.

I don't have insider data, but I guess many people only watch Netflix merely because they are paying for it. It's this psychological mechanism that has people watching just because they pay for a sub.

Once you research the best shows to watch, you can watch them all in succession, then destroy your account and carry on with other duties.

You have that choice.
That explains why there are more ads, but they still have incentive to improve their search results. They've been using AI for this for years and are even more motivated now.

The problem seems to be that the web itself is getting worse due to SEO. Maybe more AI improvements will overcome that?
Its basically a tool that lets you manage all of the js tracking scripts (tags) that advertisers, affiliates, etc have you paste into a website.

So instead of having a million js snippets on your page, you have one google tag manager snippet and then your marketing team can inject 400mb of javascript into the site without bothering dev.
Spoiler, he's just down on comments:

There's no reason WebMentions have to actually be made public BTW.
Thanks, I did not know it was literally called the "Anti-Rightist" campaign and I see I misunderstood the comment and implications you originally made. Sorry for that.
I wonder, why single Lisp out for a winter? If solving computational problems moves away from writing programs and toward writing GPT prompts, then wouldn't that forecast a winter for every programming language?
You’re basically describing Basic Attention Token, or BAT.
Bitcoin is very much protected by math. Transactions require cryptographic signatures. That's math!

Obviously not talking about the Nash equilibrium but still relevant.

The important distinction is who (or what) is being trusted. It's always possible that a compromised bank employee commits fraud against me, or a capricious treasury secretary causes runaway inflation with stupid monetary policy (this was actually one of the main motivations behind bitcoin, as immortalized in the Genesis block "The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks"). These vulnerabilities aren't really possible with Bitcoin, because you place your trust in a massive community rather than a few key individuals.
>If your doctor tells you “this pill helps many people with your condition ”, they’ll be telling the truth.

That's actually a really good wording.
I'm a big fan of trie-based interview questions because if an individual can call them out immediately, they know their data structures -- awesome.

If they only know simple data structures, going from a hash to a hash of hashes is one of those "eureka" moments that can really shows how a candidate is willing to collaborate on a problem and react to new ideas.

Heaps are an interesting data structure to use for interviewing, but I do find they can be a little less intuitive, and their use cases translate less directly to business logic and are more of an optimization task. It depends on what talents you're looking for on your team!
I think you have the wrong person. My comment is a slight against SV, not one in support of it.
I think the idea is to improve the sustainability of a city by reducing people's need to travel by car, which uses energy, and to improve its livability by ensuring easy access to most (or all) of life's amenities.

That doesn't mean it should be impossible to travel beyond the 15-minute limit. Other forms of long-form transit, like trains and cars, will always have a place, but not everyone thinks that they should be required to simply live.
Work on your reading comprehension or stop using strawman arguments.
Well, not quite what you are asking but, it has been shown that asking some demographic questions prior to testing can alter some outcomes (specifically Black students' math scores) [0] although other papers find no difference when looking at other factors such as asking about gender prior to physics tests [1], this is known collectively as "Stereotype Threat."

So given that "Stereotype Threat" is a thing, I would absolutely believe that you can apply the placebo effect to learning as well.

In the end, it all leads back to Konqueror. Pretty sad to see that piece of software go, considering its historical significance
It'll probably be a little bit like life before the web. You'd hear something and have no immediate way to verify the veracity of the claim. It's one of the reasons teachers pushed students to go to the library and use encyclopedias for citations when writing research papers.

Our species has obviously managed to make it pretty far without facts for the longest time. But we've comfortably lived with easily verified facts for 20-30 years and are now faced with a return to uncertainty.

If I had to guess, we'll see stricter controls on institutions such as Wikipedia that rely on credentialism and frequent auditing as a means to counter the new at-volume information creation capacity. But I don't really have the faintest idea of how this will turn out yet. It's wild to think about how much things are changing.
