What's stopping from people from sharing accounts?

Scalper creates "Scalper Account#1234". Scalper uses Account#1234 to buy the NFT, then sells the account in it entirety to Alice. Alice then enters the show.

There's no way to prove that Account#1234 was legitimately purchased, or if it was from a "scalper". Honestly, it looks like you're just playing games with 1990s-era verification methods, none of which worked.

The "solution" today is to install a rootkit of some kind onto people's phones and/or PCs, to stop this kind of behavior. (Anti-cheat software for video games). Leading to TPM and so forth. But at no point is NFTs actually solving the problem (and many people online consider the TPM stuff immoral anyway, because it forces the ticketmaster to control your computer/devices).

----------

Perhaps this can all be solved with long-lived accounts. Its easier to trust a 10-year-old account with a long purchase history rather than a fresh 2-month old account. But there's ways around that too (see Reddit accounts: some dude in a 3rd world country owns an account for 2-years+ with basic posts and then sells the account to a reputation manager).

So its not like you can trust long-term accounts anyway, not as long as 3rd world countries are willing to sell legitimate long-lived accounts for $$$$.

-------

At no point am I seeing this "scalper problem" solved. Nor do I see how NFTs even help at all.

Sorry, it was not for rent. It was for bills and grocery costs. Internet, electricity, gas, and my grocery store bills.

However, $400 a week for a month would be almost 3x the costs of the above, so some of that would go to rent.
You're not fully describing the Monty Hall problem - as you've described it, the answer is indeed 50%.

In the Monty Hall problem:

1. You pick one of three doors.

2. The host opens one of the two doors you didn't pick to reveal a goat

3. You are given the opportunity to keep your original choice, or pick the other unopened door

In this situation, there is a 1/3 chance that the prize is behind the original door, and a 2/3 chance it's behind the remaining unopened door.

Oh no, they definitively lobby, as listed in the sibling comment

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35687508

I'm just not sure that "rich person lobbies government" is the jackpot that republicans think it is. The day that Biden, Trump. Obama, Bush II, Clinton, Bush I and before don't get lobbying on a regular basis from major donors then I'll consider it one.

Indeed I'd rather Charlie spend an hour a week lobbying Sunak as it takes an hour of lobbying away from anyone else.
They also have quite a lot of assets though. The shareholder equity is around $190B (for Tesla it's around $45B).
It means “verified” but only to the extent of “verified a phone number”, per the info provided when clicking on Blue checkmark account.

Of course, in addition to being meaningless, that’s also false in the case of the involuntary Blue accounts. But the absence of verification is a bigger deal with the involuntary gold checks.
Depending on what one understands by “new passes through the model” it may not be.

The other problem here is that it doesn't account for differences between industrial sectors. Different industrial sectors have different amounts of consolidation. This lends itself to higher valuations. Certainly European engineering as a sector is worth far more than luxury fashion. But engineering has more resistance to consolidation. Some of this even comes down to how the different sectors are differently regulated. Consolidation in many sectors will face more intense scrutiny than in others. Lastly, we have to account for how global a sector is able to become. Certain sectors like construction, in large struggle to sell their services in a global market this limiting their size. Fashion, like movies is exactly the kind business you would expect to attain a global reach.

I will agree on one point though. As an export, LV demonstrates a grossly uncraftsman-like aptitude. My wife rebuilds and repairs designer bags. Late LV is some of the cheapest and most shoddily made shit she works on. The older bags are great. But since the 90s, the bags have declined tremendously. The same is true of Gucci. I think this is pretty clearly the product of those two brands absolute explosion in demand over the same period. Most other designer brands are tiny in comparison to these two. Except Hermes, which my wife rarely gets hold of so I'm not sure if they've suffered the same decline with scale.

But no joke, if you're looking for quality, Michael Kors is a far better bag.

Precisely. The percentages are fairly similar, I’d guess. But we’d need actual objective data to show that.

> Disputes between two developers on a team,

The way I've seen it: you should aim to be the developer avoiding disputes at all cost. If you are responsible for a dispute whatsoever, you're the problem child and will be dealt with (by management)

> disputes between two teams,

At my last job, managers were proxies to teams. Engineers were basically encouraged not to talk to other engineers because it would "distract them from whatever they were working on" and any ask you had for them needed to get approved by their manager/other management anyway.

> disputes between a developer and a team,

Again, teams didn't talk to each other. You tell your manager, they go talk to that team's manager. And that team's manager's main job is to say "no, we have no capacity for that", shielding the team at all costs, unless upper management says something/asks something. All initiatives had to come from above, not below.

> a bunch of teams dogpiling on another team, etc...

You get the idea. Team manager -> team manager
I have often thought that the EU is the sleeping giant of world politics if only they could manage to get behind a shared identity as Western Europeans. Unfortunately it seems like you need major galvanizing trauma like a major war to drive disparate tribes of people together like that, and it only seems to last as long as it takes for the population a few generations later to forget that bonding event and revert to typical tribal squabbling (see American politics).
I think they mean Google/Facebook.

> They do this because if your server code makes a mistake

This is neither good or best practice.

My take:

- Know that there are simple-mistake panics, and internal-state-just-went-bonkers panics. For the latter, you can guess the boundary of impact (one request, one connection, one job, one userID, one process, ...) but exit(1) is much more reliable than guessing.

- Tests can easily catch simple mistakes like accessing a nil pointer.

- Know that the kind of programmer who does not care about simple tests, will also not care about concurrency bugs which introduce the more dangerous types of state corruption. This corruption would likely be not limited to a single request.

Good luck to frameworks who assume that nothing bad would happen if they ignore a panic and continue serving more requests.
It seems pretty transparent, as I think you might be implying in part, that attempting to leap-frog without directly copying training data or model weights is a temporary optimization for “bootstrapping” teams.

I see this pretty directly in stablelm releasing both a base model, and a tuned model… which is not based on the base ;)

There is a goldrush to get training sets worth using, and if something 90% quality gets your models on the map quickly, it’s an attractive option. As they say, attention is all you need.

Training in the 7B range is a lot cheaper than I expected. Fine-tuning almost negligible—if you have clean data, which has always been the expensive part.

Most humans expect more than $0.000003 per token as compensation for _your_ dataset collection.

Ok, so it's more or less what I'm used to. WPMs are indeed not expected to contribute and a tech lead for a team of 5 is what I would expect.

I was more surprised by the idea that you could both be a tech lead and deal with all the issues surrounding budgeting, hiring, company goals alignment and career development issues I associate with being a manager. It seems to me like that means having a lot of people to train and have to keep in the loop.

This is the only true security. "You're on your own, asshole (TM)" has been the bank motto since 2008... Company security and longevity is oh so valued during interviews but only when you're coming into the club, not when you're leaving the club.

I'm a fan of LWN.net's[0] business model. (Enough that it's the only news source I actually subscribe to).

Links to external news articles are free for anyone to read, and for all account owners (paid or not) to comment on.

Featured articles by LWN's paid contributors are available for paid subscribers to read and comment on immediately, and for everyone else to read and for unpaid account owners to comment on between 7-14 days after first publication.[1] If you want to check out their past article quality, or just read interesting previous articles, you don't even need an account.

No pop-ups. No generic nag screens. If you're not a paid subscriber and you go to view an article you can't view yet, it tells you it's currently for subscribers only and how to get a subscription if you want one, but also tells you the date that the article will become free to read without a subscription.

Yes, I lurked for a few years before I became a paid member. Because I was able to read everything for free, the site built its reputation for me to the point where I was happy to subscribe to get those featured articles just a bit sooner. (And be able to participate in the comments in a timely fashion.)

Name one company which has an product as popular as ChatGPT-4?
I can't think of a single major cutting edge tech company in Europe besides Spotify. I know there are money makers like SAP but I don't see them as innovative or cutting edge. I think Europe needs to look long and hard in the mirror and realize that most of its policies are not working. You have sky high cost of living, a failed covid-19 vaccine rollout(due to the EU bureaucracy trying to nickel and dime vaccine makers), one of the biggest falling birth rates in the developed world, a welfare state that will fail in a generation or two due to not enough workers to support it(and too many non working retirees). I know the US and other Asian countries have these issues with birthrates as well but they do have economies that are innovative and build companies and products the world uses, the EU has barely any of these things expect a passion to push useless regulation on people actually doing work across the pond(thanks GDPR and putting out these annoying pop-ups on every site I visit).

Prediction: by 2040 Europe will be in really bad shape, its main industries like automotive will be woefully behind Tesla and a slew of Asian automakers. Its non-existent AI efforts will mean it will be a backwater of technical innovation clinging on to the coattails of US and Chinese technology. Its welfare state will have become insolvent due to too many retirees and not enough workers. I don't see it surviving in its current form for another 20-30 years.
Most Tesla and Apple products aren’t in the luxury market. They have good value in their (high end) segments and many people can afford them and justify the cost.

Strange take. First of all, since we have this huge wealth disparity in the world, it is not surprising that a company that targets the very rich can make huge profits. Second, what does the most valuable company say about all less valuable companies? Nothing! It is like saying no energy innovation happens at planet Earth because the sun produces so much more energy.

FIRE is obviously nice. I do think "bank the extra" is significantly more attainable, while providing a lot of extra security.

1. He doesn't have to change his spending habits at all. He just needs to direct the extra income into a saving account, maybe check on it one a month/quarter/year and move it someplace like CDs, Bonds, or ETFs.

2. His goal is to continue to work. Having a healthy savings account can keep you secure while looking for another job.
Michael Morell News Blackout in Effect
We basically do your idea at my current company. All the engineers have to be within traveling distance of London and we are all expected to be in the office together on the the same day every month. One day per month, that's it. Some are in more frequently but that's the baseline.

You can live wherever you want but you have to travel to London once a month and if that takes several hours and costs £100s, that's your problem.

It works really well. We do our retros and other group sessions in person, eat lunch together, chat with other functions, go for a beer or play a board game after work, etc.

Public or government managed positions are a bit of an exception. For the sake of illustration, I'll make an attempt. Of course this is strictly hypothetical.

The increased public safety from your experienced relative could create other opportunities in the city, such as a thriving retail sector. Whereas without that standard of public safety, shoplifting or other petty criminal activity might drive retailers away.

You can claim that the overall demand for police officers would be one less in this scenario. However the demand for retail employment and the demand for those goods sold by retail shops might increase. Therefore, the overall size of the pie has increased. We can extrapolate a few levels from this point. A growing retail sector might necessitate further public or private security roles.

Of course as with any example, there are probably several approaches to produce gotcha counter arguments. This is only meant to illustrate the larger point and not argue the specifics of the example.
Some HDMI splitters commonly sold online are reportedly capable of stripping HDCP protection. I could never verify that, so I cannot point to a specific model, but a simple search seems to confirm that.
I got frustrated with the time and effort required to code and maintain custom web scrapers, so me and my friends built a generic LLM-based solution for data extraction from websites. AI should automate tedious and un-creative work, and web scraping definitely fits this description.

We're leveraging LLMs to semantically understand websites and generate the DOM selectors for it. Using GPT for every data extraction, as most comparable tools do, would be way too expensive and very slow, but using LLMs to generate the scraper code and subsequently adapt it to website modifications is highly efficient.

Try it out for free on our playground https://kadoa.com/playground and let me know what you think! And please don't bankrupt me :)

Here are a few examples:

- Product Listings (Specialized Bikes)

- Real Estate (Realtor)

- Financial Data (Yahoo Finance)

There is still a lot of work ahead of us. Extracting a few data records from a single page with GPT is quite easy. Reliably extracting 100k records from 10 different websites on a daily basis is a whole different beast:

Ensuring data accuracy (verifying that the data is on the website, adapting to website changes, etc.)

- Handling large data volumes

- Managing proxy infrastructure

- Elements of RPA to automate scraping tasks like pagination, login, and form-filling

We are spending a lot of effort solving each of these points with custom engineering and fine-tuned LLM steps.

It is sad that all the big tech companies have basically become advertising companies. That said, I do think those tech companies are still more interesting than a company that makes luxury bags.

So I figured I'd check what the other largest European companies are. In order: LVMH, Novo Nordisk, L'Oréal, ASML.

#4, ASML, is of course the pride of the Dutch tech industry. That's a company that's innovative on tech and making its profits entirely by making the best chip manufacturing machines.

#3 L'Oréal is primarily known for shampoo and cosmetics and that sort of stuff.

#2 I hadn't heard of. Apparently they mostly provide diabetes care. That's awfully specific for such a big company. No idea if they're big because they're incredibly innovative in that field, or that they're monopolising healthcare.

LVMH's name suggests it's not a company that grew this big naturally, but it rather the result of several mergers. An artificially inflated moloch.

I think most people here would be happier with ASML in the top spot.
