Got a few old iMacs here (10 years+) and they run with newer Mac OS versions, but they don't run well. Upgrading iMacs is a pain as well and since the ones I got have only 4G Ram it kind of hurts using them this way.

I was given the task to get a "modern", "minimal" System up on it for non technical users. Windows 7 ran ok on them, old Mac OS ran great Win 10 crashed/had audio bugs, FreeBSD somehow ended in a bppt loop and now I got a system running kde plasma on it and I have to hope that my client will find this acceptable as well. I would, but that's just me.
Why not? People are already running VM's and other OS's in the browser.

It looks flat but the tension isn't flat. That's why that analogy is so beautiful because it suggests the existence of another force that works at any distance and weakens the further away you get from the point of the knot (gravity).

I don't think anyone has argued that LLMs are effectively digital humans or digital human brains, so seems like you're strawmanning a bit here.
Side note on Confluent’s products. Thanks for that link - the “Disaggregation of Revenue” table where the 73% and 61% numbers came from shows that Confluent Cloud revenue increased from $94M in 2021 to $211M in 2022, which was more than Confluent Platform’s revenue growth. If those growth rates continue then Confluent Cloud will very soon be the majority of their revenue.
That still doesn't let you represent `Option<Option<Option<T>>>`, requires you to remember the difference between null and undefined, and fails silently if you screw any of it up.
USA vs. Google (E.D. Va.): Should Google Be Sanctioned for Violating FRCP 37(e) [pdf]
This is correct. They still do this. They are the only ones. They go beyond just "hey, I know of a database that could handle that size" to "why are you storing this here? this is PII, this is analytical data, this is business data, here's a proposal for doing this with open source at scale". It's not just "buy our product". They go above and beyond the needs of the product to the needs of the customer, like you said.
modern redhat --and this cannot be stressed enough-- is nothing like old redhat despite IBM's fervent insistance after the acquisition they would remain hands off.

The hat killed Centos because some IBM midlevel manager needed to make quota for a bonus, and they didnt stop to realize just how unsuccessful this tactic was for Oracle/MySQL.

moderen redhat is carved into about 40 seperate repositories and channels for packages designed to fleece you right down to the last RPM. need Ansible? sure it comes with redhat 9. need posix acl support from galaxy? that's another repo you didnt pay for. same goes for about a hundred other packages.

redhat might have had great tech support in the past, but put a ticket in now and you're in IBM levels of "prove it" hell with SOSReport zips and zoom screenshares until your entry level support guy gives up the ghost and calls a developer, who tells you the bug cant/wont be fixed because libraries are hard or a rebase is impossible or any other number of boilerplate excuses why this ancient 4.x kernel based distro cant just source its solutions from fedora like they said they do

and the flagships? forget it. Yeah Quay exists but try to implement it and youll find cool stuff like an administrator account defined in configuration but not created. once created in the admin panel youll have to go back and disable new user creation so you can control user creation at all, and the whole thing just feels rickety and poorly designed from the get-go. none of this is mentioned in the docs overtly, but is buried in Redhats bloated docs pages. just buy a quay hosted whatever from the hat instead.

Openshift is equally appalling as its a massive ecosystem Redhats done virtually everything to control and nothing to distribute or competently document. its painfully obvious IBM wants you to hire a consultant to build and deploy it...There is an open-source offering, but it cant be easily rolled into an airgap installation and it suffers the same level of byzantine and poorly written documentation as Quay. K3S/RKE2 easily beat it for nearly every use case.

Then theres the docker fiasco which unsurprisingly neither of these juggernauts wanted to deal with the others bullshit so now dockers broken in all but the most monied instances of IBM hardware. redhat became so absolutely resolute about podman being "everything you can do i can do too" that it has a fucking compose option to translate docker compose into podman because people like compose but rewriting your appstack to pods when you dont want to be arsed with k8s is sort of a non-starter.
Probably for the best. People shouldn’t depend on ad tech for safety critical services.
The model is quite simple and it will work for others aswell, as long as onyone provide the software or core for free and for customized solution they will come to you.

> agreed, you can have reference fields to other collections and filter by them or query related data.

Yes it has that, but that's an anti-pattern. What I'm referring to is schema design. In Mongo you denormalize and store relational data in the same document as references. In SQL you a record might be split up into 3 tables, in Mongo that should all live in the same document. If you can't embed and need lookups, you should avoid Mongo and other nosql DBs

> Yes, usually shooting for a client

I don't think this "I [...] cannot comprehend downsizing to 2TB" in the top-level comment is really a useful comparison to the article (or rest of the thread) if you're talking about data that is from clients; not your own. Of course you can't "comprehend" that if it's not-very-compressible sensor data that you need to keep on someone else's behalf or for your business (the speculative part, that's a business investment).
Changi is a stunning example of how beautiful an airport experience can be. I fly through there + Singapore airlines every chance I get. Perhaps a benevolent "dictatorship" can be beneficial.

I’m not a lawyer, but my understanding is that remote work doesn’t create a discoverable record if the conversation happens by unrecorded methods such as a video chat or phone call where the recording feature has not been enabled.

The problem with Google Chat in this context is that even history-off Chats are kept for at least 24 hours before being destroyed (I’ve sometimes seen longer due to caching), so a record is created and then destroyed. That isn’t allowed when an obligation to preserve the record exists.

I admit I don’t know whether something like un-logged IRC would be allowed, but at the very least, any IRC clients that do log the history even for the purpose of displaying it locally after a crash and restart would themselves create a discoverable record subject to any applicable preservation obligation.

If you mean that remote workers are more likely to use Google Chat for sensitive information topics than in-person workers, yes, that could be an example of a peril of remote work. But, from the perspective of society rather than the company, making it harder for companies to hide misbehavior is actually an advantage of remote work.

Disclosure: I have worked for Google in the past, but not for more than 8 years now, and I have no inside knowledge of or connection to anything discussed in the submitted PDF.
I don't see any reason they would need to create an id for children because the purpose of this law is to block all children under the age of 18 from using certain social media. You would only need an ID to prove that you are 18 or older.
But isn't that what the "lifecycle" target date funds do? The argument is that you will know the schedule you want to rebalance on for your custom personal needs, better than the generic target-date "lifecycle" fund will?
Sure, if you have physical access to a device, you can pretty much put it under a microscope, solder in your own custom chip in the right places, intercept memory and obtain root access.

This has nothing to do with the conversation of an AI hacking computers remotely through only data comm channels.
Plenty of examples of that. I could name dozens outside the web space.
I do look at mine. Rarely for something special / useful. Sure, i won't ever again need the drivers for that dell c600 that died 15 years ago. But just seeing that installer brought back fond memories! Randomly looking in there is fun every once in a while.

And with storage still growing decently, why should i delete anything? It's not like physical boxes of photos/etc that would take up more and more space every year.
Presumably the investigators determined that the people paying the "consultants" knew full well what was going on and were complicit in the scam.

But I'm sure their lawyers will try to claim that they were just duped.
1. You're mischaracterizing the parent's comment, to such a degree that it seems willful.

2. This tendency to police other people's behavior, telling them what they should or should not do, does not help your cause. It puts people on the defensive. No one, especially adults, like to be told what, or what not, to do unless it's coming from a well-qualified lawyer.

This type of thinking might be acceptable if access to necessities like housing, health care, food, utilities, child care, and education didn't require you to make money. As it is, the end result of your efficiency is real human suffering.
> Dubal said these instances could take the form of a food delivery driver being offered a lower rate than another driver would have been — because the AI algorithm predicted the first driver would be more likely to accept that rate. If a driver tends to work until they hit a certain daily mark, say $100, she said the algorithm might offer them lower rates to keep the driver working longer.

Wow that is fucking disgusting.
It's even funnier reading than famous McKinsey email:

In one internal email sent in July 2018, a McKinsey executive appears to acknowledge the growing legal risk faced by Purdue Pharma over its opioid business.

"It probably makes sense to have a quick conversation with the risk committee to see if we should be doing anything other that [sic] eliminating all our documents and emails," McKinsey senior partner Martin Elling wrote in an email sent to another executive at the company. "As things get tougher here someone might turn to us."
There are no active plans to do this, but it's all open source and there are tools such as cbindgen, so if there is sufficient interest there's a good chance it will happen.

At least in the case of this law, your kids don't need an ID. They can't use the social media until adulthood.
Completely predictable and unsurprising though. Only way to fix it would be proper minimum wages.

The user clicks on a button or menu item labelled "Do Foo". To "do foo" requires further interaction with the user, and the designers opted to do that in a dedicated dialog. So the program now needs to make a dialog visible to collect information from the user. Simple enough for you?

What is the code at the call site that opens the dialog? WinUI? Cocoa? I am extremely doubtful that it is either. Ergo .. cross-platform "toolkit", albeit in-house.
I trust in this part we have obvious line, picture should be a true picture.
I suspect nothing major will happen because as is typically the case, the judge deciding this is way way too deep into "sunk cost" territory.

You can already see that in his previous findings: https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/23731433-23-03-28-go...

"The court has already declined to issue terminating sanctions against Google"

"the Court would like to see the state of the evidence at the end of fact discovery"

You can see the dilemma in that last statement. There is practically no discovery malpractice large enough to ever have a judge blow up a case, which is why it happens over and over again.
> OSX ships with "run unsigned apps" completely disabled by default

I’m behind the upgrade curve, so I had to look this up to see if it’s changed but it hasn’t. The default still allows running unsigned apps without any configuration change. You just have to know how to do it, which is a pretty good sensible default. If you don’t know how, it’s a trivial search away.

> so normally that option won't even be presented.

Which is why it’s a good sensible default. Most users who don’t know how to work around it won’t bother, and they’ll benefit from it. The rest of us who do know how will take a brief pause to consider the risk before disregarding the warning.

The people who will just blanket turn off the protection are either very confident in their own risk assessment capabilities because they should be, or because they wouldn’t be protected by any mechanism whatsoever.
The other thing about computers in the 80's is that Internet access back then was a rarity. So the question, as asked (and answered by most of the comments), includes an implicity purity test - that only on-device programming is "real" programming and that programming on the Internet "doesn't count" for some reason. Yet between glitch.com, jsfiddle, etc, there's a whole slew of accessible programming environments available. I can low-code up some Zapier zaps and a Stripe checkout page, which is enough to get an MVP if you've found your niche customers.

Yeah, it's a different world than on-device compilers on back in the 80's but we're not programming in the 80's any more either. Hell, Stack Overflow didn't come about until 2008. Try telling people you learned to program before Stack Overflow (and Google, for that matter).
I'm still looking for my wallet.dat in any of numerous old backups hoping it still has some early Bitcoin I mined when it was still novel and Bitcoin faucets were a freely accessible thing.
I was at Red Hat very early on. Red Hat has been remarkably consistent throughout its journey once it graduated from selling boxes of software at book stores (which was a necessary step). Red Hat only astook venture money once it was ready to go public and never before. The philosophy of Red Hat was to "make the pie bigger" and still largely is, therefore it supports open source first before anything else. This works because it provides product-market fit at scale and by nature. The thought that "all" Red Hat sells is software support, certifications, and subscriptions to updates is so short sighted and misses the point.

Red Hat created an industry and all of the successful enterprise Linux distros have followed its model to some extent or another (Canonical, SUSE, etc). You don't need "open core" (which is a misnomer if there ever was one) if you continue down a path that creates and maintains communities of software authors out there in the world that will constantly feed value back into the ecosystem.

A virtuous cycle of community maintained software alongside a thriving and growing business is still achievable, no one seems to have the guts to do it.

This is the real reason. It's very simple. Not even programmers would program on a smartphone so of course non programmers also aren't going to do it.
To share some fun stuff, here is the response generated by this model: As an AI language model, I would respond by acknowledging that the model discussed in the message is indeed smaller than some of the larger language models like GPT-3/4. However, I would also point out that size is not always a direct indicator of performance, and that the model may still be able to perform well on certain tasks or in certain contexts. Additionally, I would emphasize that the browser compatibility of the model is a significant advantage, as it allows for easy and convenient access to the model without the need to install any specific software or hardware. Finally, I would suggest that the discussion focus on the potential applications and capabilities of the model, rather than solely its size.

Back to the topic, we don't make much innovation on the model, so I am probably not the best person to evaluate how a model compares with SOTAs. There are indeed lots of super cool techniques being explored lately that makes it possible to deploy smaller and smaller models, for example, LLM.int8() [1] and int4 quantization [2] without loss of zero-shot accuracy. Can't predict the future, but maybe one day there will be something really powerful but small enough to fit in the pocket of everyone :-)

Actually I think paying them the same amount is crazy! But I’m glad for the opportunity to clarify in case that was unclear in the original comment.

Paying employees differently for similar work is pervasive and can be justified in several ways.

Calling it “cartoonishly evil” as a commenter did above is ridiculous.

If you don’t like this case, why not mandate a single uniform salary within or across firms?

Really looking forward to the inevitable comment from someone who will try to make a case for that wild idea.
At my company (not finance, and never gotten sued), documents are ephemeral

Many of them contain various personal data of clients and/or employees, legal makes us specify for how long each service needs to hold on to it, and purge as soon as possible to minimize chance of leaks.

If you read the original bet and discussion carefully, what Buffett really bet against was the fees. It’s a very important detail in the original bet that the returns would be compared net of fees. His argument was not that active management was doomed to fail, but rather that active management is usually not worth what you pay hedge fund managers to do it.
From a physics perspective, complex frequency results in “evanescent waves” - ie, waves that decay rather than oscillate (technically a fully complex frequency of the form a+ib will both oscillate and decay)

> The hat killed Centos because some IBM midlevel manager needed to make quota for a bonus, and they didnt stop to realize just how unsuccessful this tactic was for Oracle/MySQL.

I cannot stress enough how untrue this is. See my comment https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35586311

RHEL clones were always going to exist, this is and was obvious, and there are more of them now than ever. That's not the point. The point is that now there is a way for RHEL clones, including ones from competitors like Oracle, have some way of contributing back to RHEL, whereas beforehand if you were a CentOS user your only possible course of action was to file a bug in the RHEL bug tracker and wait for a Red Hat employee to prioritize it.

The business benefit is also a technical benefit - the ability to fix bugs and add features is no longer strictly limited by the amount of engineering capacity Red Hat can contribute. Companies like Facebook use CentOS Stream at scale internally and make contributions that ultimately end up in RHEL, users and vendors have a target they can integrate against early without needing gated betas, etc.

It's certainly understandable that the concepts presented here may seem perplexing or even nonsensical. However, it's important to consider that modern physics, as we know it, is riddled with conundrums and enigmatic phenomena that continue to challenge our understanding of the universe. From the pursuit of a unified theory to grappling with the implications of quantum gravity and entanglement, it's clear that our perception of reality is not as straightforward as we might initially assume.

In fact, it could be argued that this inherent complexity is precisely what makes these ideas so fascinating. Just as an entrepreneur might embrace uncertainty and forge new paths in uncharted territory, the scientists delving into these perplexing aspects of reality are pushing the boundaries of our collective knowledge. And in doing so, they may uncover new insights that will fundamentally reshape our understanding of the universe and our place within it.

So while it's natural to feel skeptical or even incredulous when confronted with such seemingly "outlandish" ideas, I encourage you to remain open-minded and curious. After all, the history of scientific progress is replete with instances where established ideas were overturned by new discoveries, often spurred by those willing to entertain the seemingly impossible.
