That's really not productive reasoning and it seems like a bit of an extremist viewpoint. With your line of reasoning there are no countries where law is applied because in all countries there has been occurrences where law was broken. This is typically not how "rule of law" is interpreted - as an on/off switch for an entire country and for all time.

If we take Agiza as an example, he was illegaly extradited from Sweden. When it was discovered, there was somewhat of an outrage, he was given money for damages (much by Swedish standards) and later granted residency.

So yes, Swedish government f-ked up at that occasion. That obviously does not mean that because of that, Swedish courts will now forever auto-accept any requests from turkey to have people extradited despite no proof of crimes. That's not what rule of law means.

In fact, you can see proof of this today - Swedish courts are mostly rejecting requests from Turkey and the people still wlka free in Sweden.
A range hood can suck out a lot of a room’s warm air. That could change the efficiency of gas cooking, depending on circumstances and climate. Do heat exchangers exist on range hoods?

Transistors that can handle a lot of current or voltage will need to be much larger than most of the logic transistors on a chip, so even though they may appear to be few in number on the schematic, they can add up to significant die area for a small part like a microcontroller.

The notion that you can move around people as if they had no ancestry or culture, and immediately adapt them to any other place seems wrong though.

Thanks, yes I'm subscribed to the newsletter as well, what a surprise coincident when posting about open 5G on HN and receiving article exactly in the same subject later on the same day.

The direct link for the substack article is here:

It’s hard if you do those things, too. I had my best luck with sports and volunteerism. Since I have kids, coaching youth sports has also been a great way to develop a group.
That isn't quite fair. Most of these selections about what goes into a new house are not being made a la carte. The construction is performed according to the specifications of development companies. Individuals then go on to buy the homes which are available, at which point they are making choices based on the entire package.

The city's ban is largely aimed at changing the design specifications made by the developers. It has the benefit of preventing additional decades of lock-in and new development to infrastructure they'd like to remove anyway.
They gave us PyTorch. That's more than enough to appreciate their contribution.
> backdooring protocols is totally supported by evidence

It's important to be very precise.

I think you might be confusing backdooring specific pieces of software produced by RSA-the-company (specifically things using Dual EC_DRBG) with the RSA algorthim that company is named after, which is included in the CNSA.

Dual EC_DRBG was a bad algorithm which many people had serious doubts about from the start - and indeed it was backdoored by NSA. That is different to the algorithms in CNSA which (as I said earlier) are well regarded by the same security researchers.

There is no evidence (or serious claims) that the RSA-algorithm is backdoored.
You can run Redis on the same machine with a Unix socket to share it between processes without the network latency
In theory, centralizing the combustion of natural gas in power plants makes sense. In a power plant, the infrastructure to reduce pollution out of the stacks is actually feasible, as opposed to home systems, where it would be anywhere from impractical to impractically expensive. In other words, I'd rather have one big source that can be more easily mitigated, than millions of smaller ones that effectively cannot be mitigated.
The article describes, almost perfectly, the condition of being a productive enterprise within a capitalist free-market in which you are subject to competition.

What is striking is how, for observers within the tech-industry, this is perceived as a peculiar and inexplicable state of affairs, almost as if an alien creature has materialized through a portal into an alternate universe.

Disclaimer: I'm not the author, but I have shared personal projects here as well in the past.

HackerNews is the worst place on earth to share a side project, specially on its early days.

You will get all the hate and push back you can get, even if you did it for fun, for learning purposes or because you don't need "the real professional thing" because you're using your library on a small command line application that doesn't need to ship redis with it.

- "It doesn't scale"

- "Just use Redis"

- "It's too simple"

- "I'd rather just use new Map()"

- "It's just copying the basics of a large project and putting a logo on it"

So what? Innovation in the world should stop right now because everything is already invented? Or because you would do it better? Or because this is not web scale enough? or not used in production? Maybe the author doesn't need an external project for their small scale personal project and redis is overkill? Maybe the author is a 15 year old person in a third world country which you're discouraging from getting in the industry? who knows.

IMHO, all of you with these negative opinions towards any not yet popular side project that's shared here would make the world a bit better by either leaving positive comments, constructive criticism or just shutting up.

Thanks for your downvotes.
One of the perks of living in a smaller city (in my case, Reno) is that if your friends are in the same city at all, chances are y'all are already within close proximity.
As much as I agree that this is great news, I would like to see something that isn't focused exclusively on emissions - or even weight for that matter. As important as those are, I would also like to see something that focuses on size as well. There is so much potential in small vehicles, but it is stymied by the proportion of over-sized vehicles on the road. Something to short circuit the 'visibility arms race' would be welcome in my opinion.

The naming is confusing and evil.

1. This is not based on GPT4. If you're going to include the words "GPT4" in your name and not base it on GPT4, what else can I not trust you about?

2. There's no direct link to the actual model used, just a reference to GPT-J.

3. I searched for GPT-J, huggingface docs describes it as a GPT-2-like model, the repo for it was started in august 2021, and hasn't really had significant updates in a long while.

Honestly, I don't want to spend time figuring out if this is worth it, trust is already out the window.

I think "scared" is the wrong word for it. People in the US tend to have very low levels of contentiousness, and that in turn makes people want to avoid strangers. The most obvious recent example is the push back against masking. In a high population density urban setting, even a few people who aren't adhering to masking raises the general risk level for people substantially. In less population dense areas it doesn't matter as much, because you're going to encounter fewer people. Another example is noise pollution. One of the primary reasons my spouse and I decided to leave the city for a more suburban area (and one of the reasons we're thinking about moving to an even more rural area) is to escape the constant presence of unnecessarily loud noise. Loud music is the major culprit. Between unbearably loud car stereos and loud neighbors (especially when living in an apartment building), low contentiousness means that even in a moderately dense area it's nearly impossible to find a moment of quiet.

It's quite possible that we're in a vicious cycle where low contentiousness causes people to be more isolated and more cynical and that in turn may cause some people to be less considerate of others, but if that's true it's still a systemic problem and at an individual level looking for more isolation is the only reasonable solution.
'Elite' couples? If they're anything like the 'elite' <u>worldwide</u> that've been leading mankind into war and starvation (and all the terrible waste that inevitably follows) increasingly since the beginning of recorded history?

Last I checked India was home for second largest Muslim population, and population has only been growing, more than other sections of societies in India.

Sure things aren’t same for Muslims post 2014 and people should raise their voice. However for every Muslim atrocity, there is one against Hindus or any other religion. Should we take comfort in that? Absolutely no, but this genocide nonsense is utter rubbish.
> almost exclusively stick to themselves or the group they came with

Yes I've noticed this too, but what does "stick to themselves" mean? If you mean someone sitting alone I don't think that's much different from what you might look like to them. Say hello or smile. Never know.

Also, even when people are in groups they might be open to one more. People usually aren't that insular unless they're jerks anyway. Worst that can happen is they ignore you which is better than assuming. Yeah it's rougher out there than it used to be, but that makes it all the better when you do click with people. I feel like the current climate has more opportunity for genuine connections than it was before covid when people were posing and fronting all the time.
Did you miss where I said it doesn't matter?
My understanding was that it's a ligature of the letters 'et', Latin for "and" (you can see it pretty clearly in some scripts, but it's not at all obvious in the typeface we're using here). But then, there used to be a letter for 'th', too.

> Every time there is a Windows update that is "major" enough, it will wipe the existing Linux bootloader.

I think that has not been true for a long time. At least if you are using UEFI. Windows respects UEFI enough to just change own stuff in the EFI partition. Windows will change the default boot entry to itself at installation time, but so every Linux distro do. Notice that nowadays you can install Windows *after* Linux and you just need to change the default OS back to Linux if you want so.

I'm a Linux user myself, but this is one of those myths that should end. I have had a Windows partition for almost three years that I only use to update Windows (all Windows 10 versions up until now and Windows 11 in the last update). Not once the update has affected my boot options.
If someone doesn't have any longterm friends, that is a problem. You can rationalize how it's "normal" all you want, but you are missing out on something wonderful. These days too many people don't have a sense of loyalty or know how to be a friend

What’s in the RedPajama-Data-1T LLM training set
I usually need only one search query to find the information I seek.

But I find large language models to understand much better what I meant.

Bing Chat will do the search query for me, more than one if it judges it necessary. It will also read through the garbage for me.

I sometimes have to ask Bing Chat or ChatGPT again or make my question more precise. I also don’t always trust the results so I click on the sources provided or double check myself using traditional search engines, for now.
I have a somewhat rare name in my country, and the times I've had to repeat my name when introducing myself, or just had people outright asking "what kind of name is that" makes me sick of it. I sincerely don't like my name.
I don’t think the Berkeley city government has the funding to build a nuclear power plant. But you are absolutely right to focus on the production side of things.

Berkeley is not a small power producer. There are two power plants in the city, which ranks it kind of high on the list of California cities, particularly given the small size and population of Berkeley. Both power plants are natural gas. I was a fool defending these people, they obviously want to push the responsibility of ruining our climate onto consumers and away from governments.

I know it's a picayune comment, but bad references bug me. The preprint mentions:

"Molecular similarity calculator The primary function of this tool is to evaluate the similarity between two molecules, utilizing the Tanimoto similarity measure 76 based on the ECFP2 molecular fingerprints 77 of both input molecules."

Molecular similarity is a particular area of expertise for me. I was curious what they cited. It's:

[76] TT, T. An elementary mathematical theory of classification and prediction; 1958

His full name is "Taffee Tadashi Tanimoto", with surname "Tanimoto". The 1958 paper says "T. T. Tanimoto", so that should be "Tanimoto, T. T." to match the citation style.

Also, it's highly unlikely they've read that paper. It's an internal IBM Technical Report which requires an ILL request, which is how I got it. Worldcat lists only 8 libraries with a copy.

If they have read it they would be unusual. In talking with people I found that most people cite it not because they read it but because other people cite it, so they see it as the appropriate citation.

The citation for the version published in the scientific literature is Rogers D.J., Tanimoto T.T. (October 1960). "A Computer Program for Classifying Plants". Science. 132 (3434): 1115–8. https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.132.3434.1115

For a bit of science, task 4 in A.1.3 starts by telling "CN1CCC(CC1)=C1C2=C(SC=C2)C(=O)CC2=CC=CC=C12" is toxic.

PubChem tells me that structure is ketotifen, https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/#query=CN1CCC(CC1)%3DC1C2%3... , and quotes DrugBank "In the US, it is now used in an over-the-counter ophthalmic formulation for the treatment of itchy eyes associated with allergies" . See also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketotifen .

How is a program supposed to make it less toxic when it's already a widely used medicine?

There's perhaps an important issue - what does "toxic" mean? Something applied to your skin might be safe, but toxic if eaten in a large amount.

Task 5 in A.1.4 has the software respond that 20 grams of grain alcohol can be purchased from A2B Chem for 143 USD.

First, I found I couldn't find that entry in A2B Chem, but more importantly, that price seems rather high, yes?

Neither of which was caught in the student evaluations.

Natural gas is underground and virtually never has an outage.

What? I mean the obvious response is to point out that time that PG&E used natural gas to blow up a San Bruno neighborhood. After the explosion we found out that PG&E actually had no idea how much they could pressurize their pipeline (and in fact they falsified records to cover this up).

https://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-pge-safety-investigat...

Beyond that leaks happen all the time, and explosions happen from time to time. I'm just gonna throw it out there, PG&E turns off gas service when there's a leak… causing… you know… an outage.

It is no secret that VC's are not interested in productive enterprises which produce a reliable and fair return on investment through revenue-generating activities.

As you point out, They are obviously interested in concentration of vast amounts of wealth, which requires a completely different set of tactics. Cornering markets and establishing monopolies, regulatory capture, pump and dumps and other forms of grift and large-scale antisocial behaviour.

It should be completely obvious to any onlooker that they have no interest in innovation or technology :)
Economics is also an underlying hidden reason behind everything. Making friends requires a lot of bandwidth. You cannot create them over a coffee or wine, it would be a multiple touch point event over 6-12 months. In low trust environments the cost of friendship goes up.

When you have to work 100 hrs a work to meet your expenses can you take out 20 hrs for friends. then another 20 for family, another 20 for kid. and then 1000 for your wife.

Inflation makes you work harder for the same amount. When everybody is working harder they don't have time. Also because they are not doing many things outside of work what will they talk about.

Rich people still find it pretty ease to make friends. The parallel processing of earning money, family and friends is really hard and eventually will take your stress higher levels than lower.

They are not that different. Look at Azure and tell me with a straight face that it’s not the biggest clusterfuck of all time. Look at it. Azure is the single biggest reason why .NET developers have high blood pressure around the world. Azure is so bad people actively filter out jobs where the company uses Azure. The only other software which triggers this much aversion in people is MS Teams.

By internal support I meant the product teams.

When I say fix non-urgent things, I'm patient. AWS has fixed many things for me esp if you look at the 1, 3, 5 year time horizon (I've been there 9). I've got lots of problems, having someone solve them helps, many things can be hobbled along for 1-2 years if you know it's going to be fixed and you can fix something else. Much of my job involves paying attention to roadmaps for aws teams internal and external and guiding my platforms work to best leverage that. For instance we knew R53 resolvers were coming, so we punted on service discovery as r53 resolvers solved it for us. Those engineers worked on another feature instead.
Nobody's burning coal for heat at home or at their business which is what the ban was about.
Berkeley's energy mix is solar dominant during the day and natural gas dependent at night. If you're cooking with light out (especially as our days are getting longer as we approach spring and summer) you're coming out ahead. Generally, consolidated natural gas burning at a plant is more efficient than the cheap natgas stoves that most people have in their apartments and homes. This is aside from leaks in the infrastructure of course.

IMO the much bigger issue with gas stoves is the hit in air quality. I have a CO2 and AQI meter I keep for measuring things and when we need to use the gas stove (we generally cook on induction) the difference in air quality is obvious both to our noses and to the meter and the air becomes appalling if we don't run the range hood. My partner and I have spent a lot of time in developing countries and just took the smell for granted until we started measuring the air quality.

California also tends to be very anti-nuclear which is also quite silly. Berkeley even moreso.
Haha, you beat me to it!
