For the record I don't use Arch, I use Fedora, but I know Linux reasonably well. That being said, I would greatly enjoy the chance to learn it better.

I also want to learn Rust, Zig, Nim, D, Go, GLSL, Lobster looks interesting, some game frameworks (Bevy, Monogame, Raylib and Pyglet come to mind), Supercollider, Flutter, LLM's, Ruby on Rails, and a bunch of other stuff I can't even remember.

Learning linux simply has to wait its line in the queue, and unless I happen to master it naturally using Fedora, with that queue ever growing, I'm not sure its time will ever come. Maybe, but then I want to say that for all the above too.
I feel like both have their place. I want to browse every option and read 100 reviews when I’m ordering a sofa or enrolling my kid in a school. But if I just want to make sure I have dishwasher detergent, size 4 diapers, and espresso beans waiting for me when I get home tonight, what I wouldn’t give for an AI agent which would — with just that prompt — do its best to make it happen, even if it had to deviate from brands or stores I would normally patronize in order to actually ensure that I got what I needed. Like a human assistant would. What I’m saying is, at least a third of my needs I’d be fine summarizing briefly like that and letting AI make an educated guess if it didn’t have enough history to rely on yet.

I’m just waiting with bated breath to see how this obvious desire to plug “AI” into things to create utility (optimistically assuming security gets sorted) collides with our present world where nobody from Expedia to retailers to governments provide any open APIs, only presenting (usually terrible) human UIs. Will the agents that eventually get made, just be emulating a browser and using computer vision and figuring out how to use these sites the way people do? Or will businesses open up and see API access to bots as a way to bring in more business?
The same tooic properly treated by none other than John Cleese. This talk for me was life changing.

We were talking about web browsers, the server-to-server protocol has nothing to do with browsers.
Yeah I understand charging for convenience... kinda. Markup is too big IMO. Should be like 10-20% more not 3x. And then they should make up the difference in volume because why would you not choose the more convenient platform if they provide the same great hosting but managed or easier to use.
lisp the concept and lisp the implementation happened quite a while apart, and algol was somewhere in the middle (if i get my programming language genealogy right)
If the DRAM is powered on at the time of seizure, recovering the key is eminently possible. If this is an issue for you, completely power off the laptop when transiting customs.

US train companies are allergic to capital investment. Essentially no electrification, limited double tracking, passing sidings too short for the 2 mile+ freight trains, and essentially no alignment upgrades to increase running speed. Then we put a precision scheduled railway (PSR) operational model on top of it which incorporates none of these words => basically freight trains move ad-hoc when they are ready. This is why Amtrak service in the west can be 18 hours+ behind schedule.

In Russia, the entire Trans-Siberian Railroad is electrified and almost entirely double tracked.
Triggered much by the word Truth?

Seriously how can a normal person react like you and many others here on HN, with so much hate, to an initiative that pursues truth.

I bet your reaction to Snopes' "fact-checking" was the polar opposite.
I feel like i discovered a deep truth today. People say we need to ground language models but it turns that they're already being grounded. Text-only (before the multimodality) GPT-4's visual and spatial reasoning make so much more sense now.
> which is technically still in beta, but that just seems to be the maintainer being very conservative about a major release

There hasn't been a new beta in a long time. Last release about a year ago and then the 1 before that about 3 years ago. Not a very convincing beta.
open source your impl then, its a good basis for a lot of other tooling :)
For a day trip to LA? I usually arrive 60-90 minutes before my flight.
There used to be a profession called "typist" where a skilled person would type up your dictation quickly and without wasting sheets of paper from typewriter error. Now it's all software

There used to be mailrooms filled with people sorting and delivering physical envelopes. Now it's all software.
expect(me).to.barf.when(i.see(shit.like(this)));
So much whining about the insecurity. If someone offers you triple your current salary, but more insecure, take the job and live on 33% of the new job wages while paying down debt and saving/investing the rest. You can find an equivent crappy job again in the future, but you may also conquer a new job market for yourself.
It changes what is considered a deductible expense.

Profits = Revenue net Costs

Taxes are a cost. Taxes are defined as some rate t, tax = t * (Revenue net Deductible Expenses)

So Profits = Revenue - t * (Revenue - Deductible Expense) - Non-deductible Expense

Percent of t is small relative to the value of 100% applied to non-deductible expense. What this has done is to take salary, deployment infra, everything, from Deductible to Non-deductible expense, leaving 20% of what was there before. That is very large.
> I don't really understand why software engineers keep dunking on each other like this.

I'm not dunking on anyone, I'm explaining my day-to-day job with a very small number of senior engineers.

We run a highly complex system. There's no way we could handle millions of calls with five-nines otherwise.

I won't get further into the details because I don't want to reveal too much PII.

I fully understand how much "behind the scenes" work goes on at a place like Facebook. I'm not sitting here imagining rooms of graphic designers thinking what the CSS button radius should be (although I'm sure with 85,000 employees, those happen also).

But note that Musk walked into Twitter, fired en-masse, and it still seems the same to me.

Yes, there are senior engineers who keep the core functionality working.

That is still far less than 85,000 employees.

In our case, it's 3 of us handling all software development. And we write a lot of mission critical code.
he would have easily hit the token limit

That was my first question. Do all these tasks fit within a 4K or 8K buffer?

Wouldn't be surprised, though, if it works in a 32K GPT4 token limit. Amazing things are possible.
A strange game. The only winning move is to write scripts in powershell.
Gaming on Linux is really good these days.

Install Heroic Launcher and Steam and you're basically in a better place than most Windows users. Proton rarely struggles with anything.
I don't know why you're saying "of course you don't" when it's been that way every year until now.

People are freaking out because it's a gigantic change that there wasn't any awareness around.
> They have a lot less sleepers than they did 30 or 40 years ago though,

I could be wrong, but I think you meant to write "they only have 1 sleeper" (Euston -> Fort William/Dundee)

[ EDIT: ah, two routes. There's the one to Penzance as well ]

It does not behave in the way previously described (at least, it did not when I took it in 2019).
In a reasonable world where you can depreciate your assets over their expected lifespans rather than a fixed 5 or 15 years, video game dev would probably actually be fine with capitalization. A SaaS startup that fails fast still gets really screwed in that more reasonable world.
For most questions, please look through the tutorial videos and documentation that I created! :)

thats not what a firsthand source is - I would have to trust that two anonymous people were telling the truth.

Also, not trusting everything you're told without evidence of some kind isn't sealioning, and nobody is required to trust randoms when they make sourceless claims.

Maybe keep your outrage to yourself because you becoming toxic when people don't accept sourceless claims doesn't do anything but show the world you're having trouble being civil in response to...a request for some kind of evidence of a claim by anonymous people. Just relax and move on instead of being outraged.
Yet shutting down the government for sport wasn’t a thing.
I used to live there and there were plenty of tourists coming through to visit the Marine Corps memorial or Arlington Cemetery. I agree though that the neighborhood itself is extremely boring.
I find that mode of operation extremely disruptive. Part of the point of sleeping on train is sleeping on a moving train, and to sense at 03:00 or whatever that the train has stopped, permanently, destroys my ability to sleep.
There really needs to be some kind of addition to the law that says "Should the user have GDPR_COOKIE_CONSENT=REJECTALL, the site should act as if the user manually rejected and objected all." The fact that third party vendors are having to produce workarounds for this reeks of the kind of American tax system that insists on taxpayers manually filling out their taxes.
I have an iPad I use for reading books (1 app). Every time I wake it up on I have to click through 4 login promts (that interrupt each other, so I have to watch the animation of them appearing and disappearing twice).

Maybe the desktop doesn't do this _yet_?
You say nothing about the alleged crime and instead ask for an attorney.

Remember this important advice—shut the fuck up. https://youtu.be/sgWHrkDX35o
To fellow HN'ers: If you find yourself repulsed, triggered even, by the word Truth, then may I suggest that it's time for some introspection.
The Caledonian still runs London -> Edinburgh.
“Hey this guy just updated his linked-in for the first time in two years!”
How well would this mix with something like fastapi?
Personally I'd like to see the response it gave, not just a tweet saying it passed the test without showing the results of the test.
Pedantically, if there's an HSM/similar hardware in play, the CPU only asks for material to be encrypted/decrypted and doesn't have the key in system RAM to be able to do so itself.

MacOS machines with a T2 chip keep the encryption key in the T2 chip so it isn't in system RAM.
US College Campuses Look a Lot Like 1970s Detroit
Yes, this is super valuable. You’re biased because your mental filter as a techie has already taken out all of the choices people actually have.

You didn’t include geo sat, starlink, 4g tethering, microwave stuff, and whatever other WISP miscellaneous things each area has going on.

To you they aren’t “high speed choices”, but that’s just because you’re picky. If someone just wants to be able watch Netflix there are many options. If someone just wants to email pictures and pay their bills, there are many different options there too.

Getting this will give all of the non-power users a way to see what’s available and pick something when they don’t need 1gbps 20ms latency.
Nobody who professionally designs and writes software AND has used LLM code generation tools sees this as a drop-in replacement for developers, generally, anytime soon. That stance is for overeager, credulous enthusiasts and doomsdayers jumping to conclusions.

Similarly, nobody who professionally designs and creates complex art products sees this as a drop-in replacement for commercial artists anytime soon. That stance is for people dazzled by their new image-generation superpower who don't know how little they know about professional creative work.

I doubt the markets for utility-grade code work (e.g. customizing existing WordPress themes) or low-effort, high-volume creative assets (template-based logos, lightly customized game sprites) will survive. They're still real people with lives and families and medical bills and mortgages and we really ought to get serious about worker protections in this country. Seriously.
It's certainly legal to get you to accept advertising, or buy the service.

What they can't do is say "no tracking, no service".
How did that become your idea of truth?
Nope. CFOs are beholden to law as are others.
Notwithstanding the comments here refuting the vulnerability, this is an informative and potentially useful article. I learned some stuff.

FWIW, my fresh install of Fedora 38 uses argon2id as the KDF.
Having more ads and monetizing the API aren't mutually exclusive. Look at the avatar/award system for example, which evolved in tandem with dark patterns that push the user to the app where they can serve unblockable ads.
A lot of folks that are hired for security are not all that suited for the job. The reality is there probably aren’t enough people out there that really are, so what you get is a lot of off the shelf security products stacked on top of one another to create security theater, but mostly just slow systems and processes down without actually doing much of anything. At the same time real vulnerabilities are left open because it would require some actual thought to fix.
You have to fill in some gaps (and occasional paranthesis) but it’s pretty darn good at writing elisp for improving your config. I find it’s helpful enough that you can take on medium hanging fruit that you wouldn’t attempt otherwise.

For example, I wrote a minor mode for centering text, an org-export backend for Notion, and some plumbing for chatgpt-shell.

The time spent on the prompt and the really not sophisticated outcome don’t balance each other out, in my opinion.
Switch to Kubuntu for a really great Linux experience. Plasma Desktop is fantastic.

Gaming? Install Heroid Launcher and Steam - you'll have a better experience than on Windows.

Wine is crazy good these days as well for all the other corpo crapware we all rely on.

Enjoy not having to reboot daily for stupid updates.

The more people switching means MS will have to get their act together and Linux will get better support from big companies. Win win.
No. The media and democrats hated him. He was an amazing president that ended the Cold War. Ended inflation and kick started 20 years of economic growth.

People forget how quickly Carter screwed up the economy.
Oh phooey. It's a longstanding joke that the "Don't Walk" lights don't change to "Walk" any sooner if you press the button. Just like the "close door" button in elevators doesn't make the doors close any sooner than they normally would.
I could have been more cynical. I could have said it's often a means of collusion to allow certain regions of the population to elevate their status within the wider group and take advantage of those who are not as well connected. Or simply for people to turn their surroundings into an echo chamber.
Yeah I should be clear, I meant this question purely as a curiosity, not a recommendation.
Still not good enough to resolve Axon terminals (0.25 microns vs their scanner at 5 microns per voxel length). But very impressive still.
If they fit this profile, they absolutely did not move to Austin.
Don’t we have a problem with trains derailing all the time in the US?
I wish it included average uptime.
I subnet advertise my entire home network, which I consume from my phone and laptop on the go. Primarily to access home assistant, plex and SSH without advertising any of those to the internet - people can and do get hacked both via plex and SSH :)

When travelling internationally, I use the exit node functionality to optionally switch on and off sending all my traffic back home to either work around geo-blocks for my home streaming services or as a pseudo-vpn replacement for particularly dodgy networks.
This is old. It's also the only reporting period graphed poorly, other years are generally correct.

The current reporting period (21-22) is just fine:

Bringup-Bench: benchmarks for bringing up CPUs, accelerators, compilers, OSes
The author didn't request ADA accomodations.

They requested the airline prevent passengers from getting upset if they see the author take medication.

Controlling the mental state of other passengers is not an airline responsibility.

The airline only needs a to step in if other passengers are preventing the author from medicating.
Haha no, I think you misunderstood. I meant the underlying reason for human to have a preferred "side" is probably the same reason that life has a preferred "side" for chemicals. Both humans and enzymes can be chiral, i.e. asymmetrical so I think they might be connected.

Don't worry, I am not an atom-ist or a chiral-ist. All sides are equal! (except the ambidextrous master race :D )
Contractor expenses to develop software are also R&D. As would cloud expenses for your test environment, probably. More likely, companies will engage in activities that are arguably not "software development," including things like maintaining existing software.
Yeah, but you know what they say about ... washing machines, right?
Seems quite useless.

For starters, the Internet is best effort, and thus download and upload speeds will depend on the whole path at a given moment, irrespective of how good the connection is. Also applies to latency.

Information about what the link speed is, and how much bandwidth is guaranteed to be allocated to your link would be much more useful.

There's also information on IP address allocation in IPv4 (fixed? dynamic? only a CGNAT?) or IPv6 (dynamic? CIDR size?), or whether you get an appropriate endpoint you can attach your router to, vs being locked into an ISP provided box (the FCC should probably do something about this).

No information about SLAs either.
What could've been done differently with a "competent" CFO?
Many people sadly have this mindset that if something is not explicitly and comprehensively spelt out then anything goes, therefore any complaints for bad implementations is purely on the regulations for not being explicit and comprehensive enough. Now, obviously, there's SOME truth to this, but too often people think in black and white.
I’m also skeptical any time someone mentions 5 nines uptime at a small scale. For one, it takes a lot of engineering to be able to actually monitor and detect that with precision (that is, how do you know you are 99.999 and not 99.995?) and with so few people there may be holes in what’s monitored (there are so many places you can drop requests/whatever and lose availability). There’s also tail risks like datacenter incidents (if your servers are on three racks in two data centers) or dependencies like power outages that you may be getting lucky on avoiding due to small scale, rather than amortizing over a huge fleet - that is to say, if there is a 1% risk per year that one of your racks goes down and takes you 3 9s when that happens, you are really at slightly under 4 9s, but with only a few racks it doesn’t happen most years.

That last one is I suspect what makes it so small scale operators can achieve “5 9s” with a fraction of the engineering of larger operators. You can get a lot of 9s most years because you dodge infrequent risks.
I agree, except when we were younger, these were also greater technical feats.

Back when VRML was trying to be a thing, I suggested "they" stop wasting their time on uber nerdy games with arcane controller patterns, and just produce a 3D window manager with really nice transitions to use for ordinary desktop things.
Night trains with amtrak are really expensive in USA. Can anyone point me in to some cheaper options? Either Canada or europe?
I searched for a specific string I copied out of a log file.

Google returned only one result and under it where it usually says what parts of your query it ignored to allow this result through it just had my entire query in full.

So basically I said "find me this" and Google went "I can't find that, here's something completely random from the internet that has nothing to do with anything"
Musical Intervals on an Oscilloscope
Finite of Sense and Infinite of Thought: Computation, Logic and Algebra
I was under the assumption OP's redis instance was running on a separate machine and they wanted to be and to achieve a setup that "felt like" it was distributed (container isolation, etc) but without the network hops adding in latency.

My question was more around whether you could use K8's to effectively simulate that, but on a single beefy machine to remove the network hops.

It was also a curiosity "is this possible" type of question, not an "I'm saying this is a good idea" type of question.
>How is ChatGPT going to infer connections here without supervision? Are you saying the process is to paste every medical record into the context window and then prompt GPT to “find common patterns in the above?”

It'll be more implicit than that. For a toy example, paste some fake but detailed stats about certain treatments. then try to ask gpt to recommend a particular procedure for a certain patient. Those stats will undoubtedly influence gpt's recommendations...and in ways that make sense.

Searching documents is powerful here because searching documents influences GPT's response in much the same way it would an equivalent human.
The sleeper train from Lisbon to Madrid takes 11 hours.
It would be funny if this was actually orchestrated by a foreign power as a way of collecting real intel.

But Google itself had and still is free. It's a service they provide to you without charge that, were it not to exist, your life would be almost immeasurably more difficult (as with any search engine). And most of the time it doesn't "take" from website owners; if anything, it generates more traffic for them.

When a model trains over Reddit, it may still provide a service that is free. But the way it's going, companies are charging money for access to those models and aren't generating traffic for the underlying training data/sites.
Uptime of what? The ont? The border router? A random route to somewhere?
Yeah I should be clear, I meant this question purely as a curiosity, not a recommendation.

I'm a PM, trying to properly understand K8's, definitely not providing recommendations hahaha.
Part of it is consuming extremes from both sides and figuring out the Venn diagram of the truth based on what both parties are acknowledging. You can also look at a variety of commenters who are reasonably middle-ground in their analysis. On YT, for me, I consume Perun (pro-Ukraine but largely factual analysis), WillyOAM, Military History Visualized, and History Legends (comes across kinda pro-Russia). I also like the ( https://old.reddit.com/r/UkraineRussiaReport/ ) subreddit, which has Russian-leaning mods, oddly making it perhaps the least-biased subreddit on the war (everywhere else is a DEEP pro-Ukraine echo chamber, including r/combatfootage). For general reasonably-non-biased news, avoid r/worldnews and visit...... r/anime_titties (note the underscore). Seriously, that's a news aggregator subreddit.
Yeah, I mispoke with Dundee. The Caledonian runs to Fort William as its furthest extent, but also splits somewhere in Borders to get some carriages to Edinburgh.
I'm not sure whether you mean "not very convincing" in the sense of "not reassuring that it works" or something else, but judging from users' comments on this issue about the release plans, it seems to work just fine: https://github.com/expressjs/express/issues/4920

The maintainer said this three months ago in a comment on that issue:

> Express 5 is pretty much completed at this point, and we're just finishing up the last code merges in upstream modules in order to bump the dependencies finally in the 5.0 branch.
Ah, gotcha. Confusing that even on that link, it shows that there's a newer version (which is triple the cost and is from 1969!).
What if an LLM generates absolute crap that then gets upvoted by bots?
