The answer to that question is a little like people arguing in court "it depends on what your definition of 'is' is."

Since this is a Show HN, here's my immediate feedback from your homepage. The copy that ends with this sentence: 'Say goodbye to subpar AI-generated content and hello to prompt perfection with PromptPerfect!' feels overdone and like it's written by a prompt rather than a human.

Since you claim in that copy to be able to optimize a prompt for a better output it felt like an odd dissonance to read that copy and have that reaction since your product claims to do the opposite. Hope this helps!

> How in the world does a submarine going at < 40 mph not detect that it's running into a mountain?

Seamounts don’t give off active emissions (except maybe if they are erupting), and subs usually use passive hydrophones (which rely on the active emissions of targets), not active sensors when operating underwater to avoid detection.

Navigation is done by charts using inertial navigation alongside dead reckoning. Hitting a mountain is generally because the mountain wasn't on the chart being used, though in principle in could also be due to an error in positioning (with inertial navigation, that should be much rarer than with dead recknoning alone, but its not impossible.) (In the case of the San Francisco, for instance, other charts had a notation of "discolored water" which suggested a probable seamount, which the investigation noted should have been transferred to the chart in use, but was not.)

> Are light, radar, and sonar still not enough to detect obstacles that big?

Radar is useless underwater, light would also be useless for spotting anything in time to react at speed, and sonar isn’t routinely used because it compromises stealth.
The thing missing from your conclusion is simply combined cycle gas plants. Take an airplane engine, benifiting from that huge industry and add a tiny steam side and you have something way smaller, cheaper and more efficient than any coal plant.

Nuclear is a super complicated coal plant regarding how the thermal engine works. Pure steam plants have simply been obsolete the last 30 years, and renewables are making it even worse by outcompeting gas plants.
That’s a good point. I hadn’t considered that before.

Just because something was done in a particular time and place doesn't mean that the same thing can be achieved again, or even that we would want it. We have different people in different positions of power, completely different technological capabilities, completely different regulations. I haven't heard anyone suggest that we should get rid of ALARA that works in the field. And I certainly don't know anybody who works in the field who would ever want to build the same designs from the past.

We have new and better tech, different costs of labor, everything is different. We need to operate on our best knowledge and tech today, not that from 50-60 years ago. You'll never convince me that's a sane way to make massive capital allocations.

I associate co-things with things that happen in parallel (e.g. collaboration) and it feels like that's closer to the intended meaning based on a cursory read of the abstract (i.e. it looks like the focus is on iterating on two data structures at the same time when they have different structural properties?).

Don't they usually store a hash of it? And doesn't it therefore for the most part work exactly the way you say it ideally should?

Of course leaking the hash of my password might make it easier to crack, to some extent, but if they've done a good job then this is much better than it being something the bank can trivially lose.
> I am surprised there is nk mention of quarter tones here

There is some debate about 22 śrutis[1][2]. I subscribe to this paragraph from the second link:

> Further, there seems to be no point in trying to interpret these positions in precise mathematical terms. Such measured values do not in anyway contribute to the understanding of music.

In addition to the above, the gamakas I mentioned are a good abstraction over quarter-tones. For most practising musicians, 12 notes + gamakas are enough to describe Indian classical music. I understand Western classical music is a little stricter with its theory, but Indian music is less so, given a stronger aural-oral tradition in India rather than the written word.

Finally, mine was an already-long comment on a Hacker News thread meant to give a rough overview of Carnatic music to a (possibly untrained) Western audience, and not a detailed, thought-out blog post or article about comparative music theory and musicology.

Sure, it's easy to write out the steps like that, but the devil is in the details. It's not super difficult for a human eye to figure out where the original pixels aught to go, but you just can't take a photograph of a photograph of a screen that was half-toned and printed with an offset printer or whatever they used and grab a clean original pixel matrix out of it with color accurate to even other parts of the image. The closer you get, the mushier it gets. Reducing the resolution using a nearest neighbor or bicubic algorithm would give you a cleaner pixel representation, but it still require a lot of cleanup to get the kind of accuracy he was going for, and inaccuracies would be a lot harder to spot in that context. I've worked on image-processing software for some big digital archival projects, I'm a long-time digital artist, and was a graphic designer having worked in print media. I would set myself a good long chunk of time to get that right and doing it for one single image rather than a necessarily reproducible process would not be close to worth it.

A point I don't see mentioned is that regulation isn't just slow and bureaucratic, and it isn't necessarily imposed on unwilling capitalists. It's often, as Stigler put it, "purchased by the industry". In other words, you regulate competitors out of business, or put up barriers to them even coming into existence.

Always, ask what is the economics of things.

Full time teaching faculty teach 3 courses every semester, for it to make financial sense to pay them for full time salaried role. Trying to teach a course well takes at least 12-15 hours of work every week, if not more. That's already more than 40 hours per week. Add a few hours of service requirements to this as well.

Where is the time or the mental energy to learn new stuff? At best they will supervise an undergraduate thesis or two every year, where perhaps the students will teach them some new stuff.

It's only the gifted, who are able to keep up. The average faculty member just falls further and further behind.

You seem educated on some matters, so please reply here. My physics education stopped at modern physics (optics, general relativity) so I'm missing the core mathematics of quantum mechanics and deeper dives into particle physics.

In the actual summation, does the calculation of vacuum energy take into account a cross section of neutrinos and extended "particles". I've always found the concept of vacuum energy lacking in that most(even physicists) do not fundamentally conceptualize a permanent neutrino and elementary particle flux in all but the most astoundingly shielded vacuum.

If there is a medium in which to effect the refractive index, then isnt this an interaction of the molecular structures therein?
You've already bought it, so the game studio got their money, despite having a "bloated" install. So the incentives aren't quite there to reduce the size.

Gpt is really bad at optimizing prompts this way because there is no way it has the ability to simulate the effects, way too complex. Tools like this need to log and a/b test.

gpt can be layered and made into an agent etc. To do the AB testing or to make prompts longer by adding more end cases as time goes by. But the effects of one single word change are far too complex for gpt base output to understand anything about.

> We just can’t accept that we might solve ourselves.

To solve ourselves is to know ourselves completely, and to know ourselves completely is to be honest in who and why we are what we are simultaneously across all persons. It assumes perfect knowledge.

There is no statistical approximation nor computational power which can do this.

> People are understandably desperate to understand their experiences as more than an encoding of a thing that might be explained.

Another way to frame this is, "some people are nihilists and do not see life as more than an encoding of a thing that might be explained."
When enjoying good and insightful articles, I always assume that biases are deeply ingrained before an article was written. Author's educational background and affiliation plays a large role in how they write. Some of the biases are easy to spot and we can just laugh it out, but some of these are also unconscious bias. I would more likely to have an "AI" that identifies biases by analyzing the history of the authors, agencies, and related historical articles. It seems impossible to me as this is very aggressive on people who are working in the industry and a disrespect of their personhood.

On the other hand, knowing what's happening in the world in a few sentenses is another thing, having GPT to check the bias and do some cross-ref checks is really sweet, after all I don't really care about most of the news.

But they're already dead, so future events do not affect them, as they are no longer in the iterated game of life.

Actually you can reprocess fuel rods. Typical rods are ~5% U235 at start with the rest U238, and over time most of the U235 gets burned up and turned into fission products. But you still often end up with ~1% U235 and some other stuff like plutonium or other actinides that could get burned up if it weren't for the fission products poisoning the reactor.

Japan and France reprocess the fuel, stripping out all the fission products but keeping the actinides (U235 and U238 and other fertile/fissile isotopes) then adding back in U235 and U238 to fill it out to ~5% fissile and 95% fertile material again. Then you put the rod back in a reactor.

This isn't as efficient a use of natural uranium as a breeder but it does make it the case that the only actual radioactive material you have to deal with waste-wise is the fission products. Everything else keeps going back into a reactor until it's burned up, or is U238 which is harmless (it's 99.3% of what we pull out of the ground and so could just get put back into the ground).

The fission products are nasty but that also means they decay very fast and become totally harmless (ie less radioactive than the original uranium ore) in ~300 years. We can embed them in a glass block, which renders them inert chemically and pretty impervious to leaching if exposed to water, etc. It's then easy to manage them until they're harmless (you can do whatever you want with them; the volume of material is not very high, and it's quite easy to shield against it).

France, for instance, can store the fission products from 1 tonne of spent fuel in 110L of glass, (see https://inis.iaea.org/collection/NCLCollectionStore/_Public/...) which corresponds in modern reactors (45GWd/tonne of spent fuel) to ~10GWh of thermal energy produced per liter of vitrified glass. By comparison, gasoline has an energy density of ~8.5kWh/L, so ~1.2 million times higher for the glass waste than unburned gasoline (coal etc is similar).

If the US ran 100% on nuclear for all energy (needing maybe 3TWe, 10TWh-th) and reprocessed our spent fuel, we'd produce around 24m^3 of vitrified glass per day, and its maximal volume would be ~2.7e6 m^3, or roughly 1 square mile one meter deep, to run the entirety of the US forever with nuclear power (that's 300 years of production, by the end of which the fission products are less radioactive than the original ore, so we can just dump any 300-year-old glass in the ocean or something and it's totally fine, can't harm anything).

Is that a lot of waste? I guess. But we burn that much gasoline in the US every 2 days, and the products of that just get dumped straight into the air. This stuff is solid and just sits there not doing much of anything except make some heat, then becomes harmless glass we can dump wherever. Pretty good deal imo.
The Sudan crisis and the Sahel gold rush
Minimize meetings, status reports, etc., recognize performance, reward commitment, e.g. extra time off, bonuses, etc., don’t punish success, e.g. don’t assign more work to fast finishers, engage the team in project selection and planning, remove/block obstacles, for example poor performers, nagging PMs, other managers. I’ve always found that such practices yield very good teams. It is a problem at companies that still do top ranking style performance reviews. If the manager is doing their job, the team’s performance is not normally distributed and performance review practices can torpedo everything you’re striving to build.

Run two processes.

Process #0 is on HardwareThread#0 through HardwareThread#15 inclusive. These will run faster because of L3 cache (96MB IIRC).

Process #1 is on HardwareThread#16 through HardwareThread#31. These will run slower because they don't have the cache (only 32MB).

Load balancer checks queue-depth of Process#0 vs Process#1 and distributes as appropriate. Done. You probably should be doing this under NUMA-conditions anyway (which will have different memory-access speeds and different PCIe access speeds / asymmetries. NUMA#0 will talk to PCI#0 faster, and if PCI#0 is Ethernet, then NUMA#1/#2/#3 will be penalized), but its no different for asymmetric cores.
Then does this mean these volcanoes will slowly shrink the size of the ocean which might contribute to raising sea levels on top of melting glaciers?
