> If someone said “for the sake of progress we just REALLY need to use this GPL’d code in our proprietary closed source app”, I don’t think that would fly around here.

Arguably that's because putting GPL code in a proprietary app is making a free thing closed. FWIW, I don't like proprietary AI models either, but I think open-source ones shouldn't be hampered by the copyright mafia.

This is also a bad argument. You probably know very well that if a cryptographer can force you to employ infinite monkeys on typewriters to guess their key, they'll declare victory. You need a mechanism that searches and focuses the space of possible chemistry, that forces life into being. If you look at the timeline for the emergence of life, I don't think it's one that supports an infinite monkey type of mechanism. It was too fast.

He has just admitted that O̶p̶e̶n̶AI.com has partially trained GPT-5 and is already planning to test the 'so-called' useless guardrails around it.

There is no 'revolution' around this. Just 'evolution' with more data and more excessive waste of compute to create another so-called AI black-box sophist with Sam Altman selling both the poison (GPT-4) and the antidote (Worldcoin).

At some point, with their tremendous lock-in strategy, O̶p̶e̶n̶AI.com and Microsoft will eventually use the lock-in to upsell and compete against their partners.
Thanks for the advise, we do have some full screen ads, but use it conservatively. It is always more satisfying getting revenues through in app purchases since it’s a sign that people value what I’ve created

> So I think, to compare a human listening to an album, and a trained AI system listening to an album, yes, those two things might be reasonably analogous.

This still relies on the implicit assumption that AI and human mind work the same way. While AI and humans may generate similar-looking results, and need a similar amount of data fed into them, is that really enough evidence that they work the same way, and should therefore be treated the same way?

Additionally, this analogy is ignoring the fact that human mind cannot be replicated, scaled and automated, while an AI can. Isn't that aspect highly relevant in case of producing content?

I am a clinical psychologist and did research related to empathy and compassion.

Often in clinical work I have seen almost the exact opposite distinction between empathy and sympathy with empathy being understanding and sympathy being shared feeling.

In the research, definitions are muddy and one of the main problems with empathy research (IMO) is that each research group seems to use their own definition and these definitions are often incompatible. My own preferred definition defines cognitive and affective empathy, with cognitive being the understanding and affective being sharing in the emotion.

I personally don’t care for the way the article defines these things. It seems to contrast sharply with more or less all scientific and clinical uses of the terms AND the everyday use of sympathy which does NOT commonly mean understanding but usually something like pity or just “feeling for”.

It almost seems like the author accidentally switched empathy and sympathy throughout the article.
> Police were unreliable out here (metro Atlanta) long before BLM

go look at where rich people live in Atlanta, I bet you'll see police everywhere

this is where people from Manhattan move to, they have more than enough money to buy into the best neighborhoods wherever they go

the neighborhoods they end up in are often gated, their kids go to private schools...frankly low taxes are actually a real draw for these people

no different than Dallas, Houston, Austin in Texas...where the rich folks live, there are police to spare

Dauphin DTR-1: The 486 Touchscreen PC from 1992 [video]
The mainstream liberal interpretation is that gender is a social construct separate from sexual identity/preference, and you can’t constrain the expression of either to the historical Western norms, because that’s an attack on Constitutionally-protected individual rights. There’s a more extreme leftist interpretation that says both are fixed identities practically from birth, but it ends up with the same conclusion: let people be and do what they want, even if it doesn’t fit into heteronormative expectations about gender or sex.

My entire point is that’s the morally and legally correct framework, because we shouldn’t be using scientific determinism to make decisions about how individuals with free will and rights can express themselves. The article is correct to have the disclaimer, in this light.

The ZPU may be smaller than you're crediting. 440 LUTs is very little space.

The reported synthesis results ("440 LUTs") are on old Spartan-3 fabric. These are LUT4s, and anything from Xilinx newer than about 2006 uses much more capable LUT6s. Hence, it's unfair to compare these figures directly. (Comparing against ICE40 fabric is better.)

However it's being handled though I think the gesture is pretty nice in general. A ton of WeVPN customers were about to lose their money and for some people in restricted countries losing VPN access can be a hell of a blow.

When in Shanghai for example being able to jump across like this would have been pretty handy. As opposed when one that I used went down I had massive issues trying to get back online as other VPNs were being super restricted.

> Bring this back to the real world then, how can this happen? If it's possible then someone who doesn't care about profit would create this already.

I'm doing it. I'm that "someone who doesn't care about profit". I literally went to start a normal corporation, saw this "non-profit mutual-benefit" corporate form, and realized that it aligned better with what I wanted to build, so I incorporated as that.

The idea is to acquire some land, lay in a kind of ecologically harmonious high-tech neighborhood combined with a 3D printing shop and other facilities (electric, ISP, food forest, etc.) and rent-to-own or something to members. It's a kind of economic time travel to a Star Trek-style techno-utopia (to the extent that such a thing is even possible, given human nature, eh? But that's not my problem. I'm just trying to keep from messing up the environment and/or becoming a peasant, you know?)

Check out https://www.riverbed-ranch.com/ for something like what I'm talking about (this is not my thing, but it's got some similarities.) These folks are basically treating Utah like a fresh alien planet and building a nice modern eco-friendly town out there.
That's fair! Perhaps I should amend to say that "current" idiomatic (almost got autocorrected to idiotic on my phone) c++ code is allocation heavy. Probably there exist suitable libraries I don't know about that basically implement the STL using predefined arenas for storage.

Show HN: Wolebase – Desktop app to easily seed your database
Hi, HN community!

I’m Nicolas and I’m excited to share our recent project, Wolebase, a Desktop app designed to help developers easily seed databases, build relevant datasets for testing purposes, or overload databases. Wolebase is directly connected to your database to handle all its requirements.

Today, we need you! HN community to test Wolebase and give us feedback to improve the product.

I would also like to discuss in a comment how you generate data for development teams to test their code.
What's the difference? Why is it significant?
No one will be able to prove the source of the data - was it Disney content, or was it someone copying the animation style of Disney content?
You built Proxyman?! What a great project. This can't just be a side project though right?

I really really miss the multi-skinned website thing. Having multiple personalities for your site was such just a rip roaring cool thing. That whole idea of a site being an experience has gotten simmered away. In many cases that reduction of friction is due & appreciated, but there's something to be said for having a bit of an experience too, even if it is a kind of shallow/transactional bit.

My first webshack internship had a nice website with like 20+ very slick early web designs folks could switch between. So cool.

There's the Css Zen Garden, a set of html elements to practice your design chops on. That was so the spirit of web design, highlighted so powerfully how bodaciously rad having html structured information & css styling as separate entities was, rather than as almost all UI toolkit do having the two concerns more intermingled.

Without answering the rest "this level of investment in CS" is something always worth absorbing. You don't have to do it as a full time course. But having the passion for that learning and having those tools in your toolbox is always worthwhile IMO. You never know when the next problem you solve will have an answer in CS theory and algos etc.

Now do you need this particular set of books to get you to that goal? Like many others who have never even to touched these master pieces - Hell yeah (if you can afford it). It's like the War and Peace of cs books - may be just much less dry!

I started Hacker Newsletter [1] almost 14 years ago and sent out the 647th issue today [2] to 58k folks. It took over a year to break 1k subscribers and a few more years to get to that type of revenue.

big diff between profit/trend driven design and philosophical/practical design.
Why should I respect silicon? It's just a tool, like a screwdriver.
Seems reasonable.

It's a product that should, and perhaps could in a more bullish market, have grown their subscriber base while adding value to their core product.

Clearly they didn't get the numbers they wanted/needed and if everyone else is cutting right now, this is something that seems reasonable to cut from their expenses.

The concept of the game sounds cool though as a customer of the company itself however I didn't know about it.

Also I wouldn't put it past them to push features of the game directly into the Spotify app in the future. (Maybe they already have, I don't know).
This actually made me happy, considering all the bad news lately:

I have no idea how AWS defines it, but to my mind it's about two things: intent and impact.

Intent: What is the connection's purpose? To use a service, to map a topology, to identify potentially vulnerable targets, to consume resources?

Impact: How does the act of connecting (once or many times) affect the remote end of the connection? Is a critical resource being exhausted (network connections, cpu, memory, etc)? Is the remote end's service still available for its intended purpose?

There's no magic spot on the scales but the further you get away from "to use the service" on the Intent scale and "no detectable impact" on the Impact scale, the more trouble you're likely to run into.
Sure. Maybe that analogy is in fact not even fair. The main point I was getting at is, an AI system has already used a huge quantity of data before we could even try to compare it with what a human does.

But even at that point, I would agree, the analogy still may have holes in it.
> These irrelevant industries need to stop holding us all back and just disappear already.

Like artists, sculptors, writers, photographers, narrators, musicians, composers, and so forth? The very same industries AI requires to exist for training?

They will disappear. And we will be poorer for that.
Wouldn't this mean that you're bandwidth constrained by the data plan associated with the SIM from the mobile carrier?
Core language design? Definitely elegant in my opinion. F-expressions, clever "formula" syntax, everything is an array, great C/C++/Fortran interop.

Standard library? Absolute chaos. Some elegant subsets, but mostly a mess that you learn to live with.
Note that you can't compare LUT4 results (ZPU @ 440 LUTs) against LUT6 results (PicoRV32 @ 750 LUTs). The ZPU is remarkably small, and it's a bigger gap than a direct comparison shows.

SERV is a fair comparison, since it's architected for 4LUTs and I suspect the synthesis results come from iCE40 tools.

I have a contender in the "very small" space, too [1], although I don't claim it's as mature or complete as SERV. (If Minimax was excluded from your post on the basis of insanity, I'm OK with that.)

Entity-Based Reinforcement Learning
Virginia Norwood, ‘Mother’ of Satellite Imaging Systems, Dies at 96
In the world of nonviolent communication where empathy is one of the central concept, empathy occurs when a person feels felt.

When empathy occurs, the person who is experiencing the feelings, and now feels felt and understood on the level of the feeling, has the resources to digest / process, understand, and move forward / shift.

Learning how to give empathy to others and self is one of the most important outcomes of the training.

What makes it difficult to teach is that it is less of an intellectual process, it is closer to a felt presence experience, and very simple.

I have an roleplay exercise called “not empathy” going through the standard cultural approaches like telling a similar story, or telling the feeling person that whoever wronged them is the bad guy/gal, or reminding them how valuable their experience is as learning or that soon they’ll be laughing from the distance of time. None of these is empathy and none provides the space needed for the shift.
It's disgusting for them to say their site should be fine for a healthy individual and that's enough. Not everyone is healthy! And if you're unhealthy and visit a doctor you often won't be instantly cured.

Interesting, but I have questions. The OP shows how SafeRate improves plain-vanilla Adam, but almost no one uses that anymore. The most commonly used optimizer nowadays is probably AdamW. Does SafeRate improve AdamW to the same extent, or at all? How does using SafeRate compare with Bayesian hyperparameter search? How does it compare with rule-of-thumb hyperparameter selection methods? Many people seem to get a lot of mileage with AdamW and sensible defaults (e.g., a "one cycle" schedule with a max lr of 3e-4, momentum peaking at 0.95, and some weight decay)?
