It isn't a driver of the decision. Who gets fired is a detail that gets worked out after the fact.

Leadership, based on their understanding and information make the decision to cut 500 and create a mandate to make it so. Then management is forced to decide who gets the axe.

It would basically be impossible to drive the decision the other way. You can't asses every individual for necessity. What would the threshold even be? The threshold depends on the number of people you want to fire.

There is no super computer that can calculate the outcome from firing \ 499 workers vs 500

> I'm surprised there are more Apple TV users than Apple watch users

Anecdotal but everyone in my proximity that uses apple products have an apple tv. My mother, my father, etc. Very few have an apple watch. That’s like me and my developer friends or friends who are more nerdy about workout.
Ah, a rainy day in the cloud.

Yes, if your mixpanel event contains your user's stripe customer id then definitely yes. Its possible to use metering.ai to calculate the aggregated usage from the CSV exported with mixpanel and publish that aggregated usage data in Stripe.
See, at least Siri usually is ready to take your input the moment you press the button, even if it then casually discards your input because it can’t reach apple’s servers or whatever.

Google Maps: I swear, about half the time I try to activate voice search, it sits and spins before even accepting any voice input at all. Why can’t it just start reading the microphone right when I activate it, and then submit the saved audio whenever it’s done getting set up? It’s so abysmally poor that it’s usually faster to scroll through recent destinations or literally grab the phone, unlock, and put in a destination.

This is just a market begging to be disrupted. I want to see a startup combine Whisper, GPT, and a competent TTS model into a killer voice UI!
Is there actually anything ssh-specific here? Seems like quic support is something that could fit something like socat pretty well?
Hi! Could you please share details of how yours works?
You're correct: justices' opinions do not swing in they wind. They are cemented at the moment they were nominated, and remain the same for decades.

I don't believe Thomas was bought by bribery. I don't think any reasonable observer does. Rather, I think that he was friends with a very wealthy person, who appreciates that Thomas is ideologically inclined to give him what he wants.

Nor is that illegal. The illegal part is failing to disclose it. Nobody can say why he failed to disclose it. He has no reason to be embarrassed by it. It's widely interpreted as contempt for the law -- an uncomfortable thing to believe about the highest court in the land.

I know that a lot of lawyers (of all ideologies) have a lot of respect for the work of the Supreme Court. As a non-lawyer, my lack of respect should mean less than theirs. But when a decision comes down to ideology, they can be relied on to vote with their decades-old beliefs, and the entire charade of presenting a case seems unnecessary. The decision could have been written without pretending that they were actually deciding anything.

As you day, democracy is about losing gracefully. But as of now, I'm practically guaranteed to lose for the rest of my life any time it comes down to an ideological issue. That's not corruption; it's the fact that there are at least five justices who I don't believe will even consider it. The fact that one of them doesn't consider a law relevant is an indicator that something is badly aligned, upsetting the balance under which I'm expected to be a good loser.
This hits home, it is a big ask to keep data in sync for yet another store. We already balance MS SQL and Algolia and all the plumbing required to catch updates, deletes, etc. adding another feels like a bridge too far. Hopefully MS will get on this train at some point and catch up to postgres.
And if you're bad like me, it's frustration and burnout.
I have terrible luck with Spotify and Siri. These kinds of specific requests fail.

I tried it with your prompt and Spotify started playing the whole album. Which is better than my usual outcome. Of course, it took three tries. The first two times Siri said it was going to play and nothing happened.

Usually I don't even get the same artist or album I ask for. Admittedly, I stopped trying a few months ago, so maybe they've improved things a bit lately, or maybe I just got lucky.
I think you're mixing up quite a lot of things here. For one, apart from the impreciseness of your statement of the decision problem, it wouldn't be a decision problem for ECDLP but rather for the more general discrete logarithm problem (DLP). ECDLP is assumed to be in a higher complexity class than DLP.

With that said, even if the decision problem for ECDLP is in NP and P = NP, that does not mean that a solution to ECDLP is in P.
Glad there are more options for search tools. Seems pretty good!

Tech Surge Sends Valuations to Extremes, but Traders Don’t Care
Maybe not. It understands data sheets, and seems to be able to connect the dots based on probabilities around connecting components together. If you don't ask it to do large-scale design tasks, it's okay at narrowly scoped tasks like this.

If it's wrong, you can determine that during simulation. You could also assert that in the background, I suppose — prune the bunk suggestions by the language model before presenting them.

In my own experiments I find GPT can succeed in complex tasks if you prompt it multiple times at different steps of the task, and have some level of recursive validation and re-prompting to keep it in line. In a case like this I have a feeling it would do a great job, and would be especially useful for the discovery/exploration phase of a new project.
> Arthur de Gobineau, a French aristocrat and one-time secretary to Tocqueville, is considered one of the fathers of scientific racism. When Tocqueville became aware of Gobineau’s theories of inherent racial inequality, he responded fiercely, calling them “false” and “pernicious”

Maybe I read a different book, but in tome 1 there's some pretty racist chapters about the differences between white & black in America, and how they'll never get along or something.

It's possible he disagreed with "scientific racism" but he appeared pretty confident in some other racist views in that chapter in the first tome... (note his visit was before abolition of slavery)
Well, I guess decimating the farming, fishing and car industries is one way to remove any negative externalities that might have arisen from the trade they generated.

It doesn't seem like a particularly good way to ensure trade works well for everyone though!

I suspect the drug trade will not be massively affected either way by Brexit.
Huh?

Unless you or your family were the ones that fought, it is privilege. Privilege isn’t a “bad word,” either - it’s okay to have privilege. But acknowledging it’s existence goes a long way toward building humility and understanding the situation of others who don’t have it.

Fails my personal benchmark, unfortunately:

haskell megaparsec operators -> should return [0] somewhere high in the result set. Found it on the third page of Brave Search. For comparison, it's the very first result on Google, second page for Bing, and the third page for DuckDuckGo.

Sure, it's a bit obscure, and I don't even write that much Haskell these days. But it's calibrated to determine whether I can rely on the search engine to quickly surface what I need to be productive, and whether I can trust its 'negative results' (I don't see what I want on the results page -> I need to refine my query or take a different approach). The version number returned in the URL also shows how well the engine handles keeping up with versioned documentation pages and aggregating 'link juice' between them.

I try this on every search engine alternative that pops up on HN. Very, very few pass. I find it often works like an adversarial example, yielding completely nonsensical results.

I'd live like this if I could. I did it for a good 5 years, and then my hands just stopped working. I tried coding by voice for a while, that lasted for a year, then I lost my voice. Now I code for at most an hour a day, until the pain sets in and my fingers become too weak to press the keys, and I spend the rest of my hours on other things. I wish I had diversified my hobbies more when I was younger. But I'd also rather spend 8 hours a day coding for a lifetime, than 16 hours a day for just a few years, and then it's over. I have so many projects in my backlog that will never get built. Not sure why I'm even saying all this. Take care of your health.

Relevant quote: must show significant “human authorship.”
I’d love to see a survey of people’s hit/miss rate with Siri, but with the extra dimension of what accent they have and how thick it is. IME, Siri’s speech recognition is actually quite fantastic (I almost never have an issue with a dictated text message saying the wrong thing), but:

- I have a very standard midwest american accent

- I talk to siri like I’m a pilot talking to ATC: As clearly and succinctly as possible, never saying “umm”, “uh”, or having to correct myself, etc (this is actually an acquired skill that takes time)

- I generally know what things Siri can do well and what it can’t (I try to phrase things in ways I know is less likely for Siri to misinterpret)

My theory is that most people who have a bad experience either have a thick accent (and importantly don’t set the Siri language to something that matches their accent! there are multiple “English” settings in the Siri language, pick one that matches your accent!), don’t speak clearly/mumble, have a lot of noise in the environment, or some combination of the above.

> [...] he adored America.

Just another American holding up a book they've never read and screaming lines they've been fed by a think-tank about it.

"Some years ago several pious individuals undertook to meliorate the condition of the prisons. The public was excited by the statements which they put forward, and the regeneration of criminals became a very popular undertaking. New prisons were built; and for the first time, the idea of reforming as well as of punishing the delinquent, formed a part of prison discipline. But this happy alteration, in which the public had taken so hearty an interest, and which the exertions of the citizens had irresistibly accelerated, could not be completed in a moment. While the new penitentiaries were being erected (and it was the pleasure of the majority they should be terminated with all possible celerity), the old prisons existed, which still contained a great number of offenders. These jails became more unwholesome and more corrupt in proportion as the new establishments were beautified and improved, forming a contrast which may readily be understood. The majority was so eagerly employed in founding the new prisons, that those which already existed, were forgotten; and as the general attention was diverted to a novel object, the care which had hitherto been bestowed upon the others ceased. The salutary regulations of discipline were first relaxed, and afterward broken; so that in the immediate neighbourhood of a prison, which bore witness to the mild and enlightened spirit of our time, dungeons might be met with, which reminded the visiter of the barbarity of the middle ages."

Tocqueville, unlike the newly minted class of college-educated illiterates who would come to throw him back and forth at each other while throwing in English words they learned upon encountering their foreign equivalents on Duolingo, each smearing a little bit more of their unwiped fecality from fingernail to spine of the $38 Barnes-and-Noble hardcover reprint of a public domain translation, was complicated, and the phenomenon he described, Democracy in America, remains complicated.

Water isn't oil though, the former is biologically necessary and the latter is socially necessary. It also wasn't really what I'm talking about but I'll bite none the less.

I'm not really saying we get rid of it fully but we don't need anywhere near the oil and gas industry we have. About 67% [0] of extracted oil used in the US goes into the transportation sector in one form or another and an additional 6% goes into power generation.

We could eliminate a lot of that consumption through building things like nuclear plants and various green energy sources and by reducing the reliance on cars in the US. Unfortunately that latter option is going to be fighting against decades of culture and choices built into our cities, but we could also shift away from gas cars as well and it fortunately seems like we are at least headed that way though I'm betting we'll encounter a plateau in electric car adoption well before they outnumber gas vehicles.

Even if we only shifted most consumer vehicles over to some gas alternative we could probably eliminate at least a third of all oil products consumed in the US. More if electric trucks pan out though that's a trickier proposition just due to how they're used. Those two changes don't even really require large changes to how we operate our world today just shifting the energy demand away from fossil fuel onto electric.

Having used Bluesky, I'm really amazed at how they are able to suggest people for me to follow ... it seems like they have access to my Twitter profile somehow. They seem to know who I follow on Twitter and find the same users for me on Bluesky. That alone has made Bluesky more useful to me than Mastodon.

Also, the AT protocol is much better designed than Mastodon. The ability to leave with both my identity and data and go to a new provider is pretty amazing.
Yep. I was one of those people who thought I was immune to being human.

I had various friends who were a little older who told me to cool my jets. I didn’t listen, because YOU DON’T KNOW ME!

I did burn out and became extremely depressed.

My priorities have now shifted so that I care more about spending time with my friends and family. I realized I’m probably just as productive, if not more than I used to be. Maybe it’s because I was spending more cycles percolating on the problem instead of trying to bludgeon my way through.

I don’t know if OP will heed this advice. I know if I went back in time a decade and told my younger self to slow down, my younger self wouldn’t listen. It might just be something you have to experience and learn the hard way :(
Maaan, don't you see? This was a controlled move: hook up people to a social network, pretend to clumsily ban it (while also testing and upgrading ISP abilities to do it), control reaction, pretend to unban it (oh, we do what peoples asked! we care! we not baddies! we cool!)

While in the same reality aggressively fight TOR, block VPNs, enforce passport registration, etc. etc. There's even a man jailed for running a tor node!

PCB Designer on the team:

Holy cow this is awesome! The integration of project context with an LLM enabled more than the sum of its parts when it comes to information access.

When designing circuits for fast iterations, you're constantly managing risk and time expenditure; this leads to copying a lot of "flight heritage" circuits so to speak.

With the LLM, I'm able to get highly condensed starting points for better circuits when it comes to simplicity, understandability, or performance. As of right now, all I have to do is fact check the solution which is much easier than synthesizing one myself.
I'm citing the example where I got it to design me a viable high gain analog frontend that meets my gain, bandwidth, noise, and biasing requirements.

Show HN: AutoGPT-Social, an autonomous Instagram bot
https://github.com/WillReynolds5/AutoGPT-Social

I'm excited to share with you a project I've been working on called AutoGPT-Social! It's an Instagram bot that automatically generates and posts engaging content for your Instagram account using ChatGPT API. The bot gets real-world feedback in the form of likes and comments and uses the data to optimize captions, hashtags, and posting times. The bot's goal is to get as many likes, comments, and followers as possible.

Features:

Automatically selects images and generates captions w/ hashtags for Instagram posts

Gets real-time feedback (number of likes, comments) to optimize posting schedule, captions, and hashtags for maximum views, likes, comments, and follows

Set the number of posts per day

Automatically finds 100s of relevant hashtags and figures out which are best

I hope you find this project useful!
Happy posting!

I wouldn't mind to have been born a giant, but here we are.

I get that some folks feel bad about human's impact on the earth, but you're going down a very concerning road here. I'm glad I was born, and I'm glad my child was born. I would love for us to move quicker towards a world that isn't trashing the earth like we are now.

I do however get a little concerned about the opinions of those who wished humans existed in far fewer numbers, especially when that involves a wish for a mass die-off (or cull!). You (or whomever) are free to hold whatever opinions you like, but when people start talking about advocating for allowing or promoting the death of large numbers of people, that's when I ask you to politely fuck off.
