This reinforces a cheeky theory I have, that AI is basically an alien intelligence that doesn't quite know what humans are and what they do, but it tries to remember and describe roughly what it saw. So you're getting these handwavy images that feel close to something familiar, but lack the grounding that we'd expect.

SQLite 3.42.0 DRAFT release notes
The main things in this release seem to be JSON5 support, and a new 'secure-delete()' function for FTS5.

The rough ETA for the 3.42.0 release is ~15th May.
I found this post about MMT nicely written, maybe others will enjoy reading it as well: https://stephaniekelton.substack.com/p/magical-thinking-mone...

> They didn't actually go that far

Yes, they did. This is literally from the third paragraph of the article:

> It’s actually a weirdly optimistic thing: that a language with so many glaring deficiencies stands far above everything else.
>Yes, there's been a substantial decline in the use of the dollar, but that's not because some other currency is shooting up to take its place. It looks like countries are diversifying their portfolios, not fleeing the dollar for another currency.

The bulk of the "diversifying their portfolios" is being done by China. The de-dollarization happening in other countries is a rounding error.

Generally it is misleading to talk about the rise of "BRICS" and the "Global South". In most contexts it is only China that is relevant and the other countries are rounding errors.

Being a landlord is a full-time job, and very risky.

Just building housing for sale is also a full-time job, and not exactly easy to do. You can't just give a pile of cash to a general contractor and expect a perfect, turn-key house as a result.

There's a reason that companies specialize in the things you suggest here. Of course, you could just invest in those companies, but that's no different than investing in any stock.
Whether or not something is constitutional is fundamentally a political question decided by judges appointed by the senate who get to interpret what the centuries old text says and what that actually means in a modern context. And that text only means something when you get judges to act on that. Until they decide something is unconstitutional, nothing happens. And often they decide something is fine after all. That's why the political color of judges on the supreme court is so important. Because what they do is super political. And all of that is constitutional.

Sorry, but this is hysterical BS.

Reddit has some serious flaws to be sure, and some really shitty subs, but the "genuine, peer-to-peer information" is found there in the weird little niche subs. PR organizations don't care about modified IBM Model M keyboards from 1985, but there's probably a subreddit out there dedicated to just that one thing, with a bunch of genuine information from genuine people who like to modify that keyboard. I could probably find another subreddit dedicated to restoring electronics from the 1940s, something else I'm sure no "PR organization" cares about. There's countless other examples just like this. In fact, if Reddit were confined to extremely narrow special-interest hobby groups like this, it wouldn't have the bad reputation it has now.
Yes, the housing being too expensive because too many people have too much money is a major problem to solve. You’d think people fleeing to Texas would lead to lower housing prices, but that isn’t really occurring. I guess that’s the difference between fleeing due to “it’s too crowded, so everyone is leaving” (ie San Francisco) in contrast to fleeing due to a lack of economic opportunities (ie Detroit).
Yes, this is exactly how it worked. It sounded good in theory, but in practice wasn't that great IMO. By only giving a few random users the ability to mod up/down posts, for a limited time, and ONLY in threads they didn't post in, there just wasn't much incentive to moderate. Personally, I frequently got mod points, used them, and then wanted to respond to something somewhere else in that thread, and so making my post would undo all my moderations. It was a choice between my speech being stifled, or being able to do my civic duty of moderating, and I chose to exercise my speech most times, so I probably was not a very effective moderator. Perhaps if they had made it more fine-grained it could have worked better (so you can't mod in a subthread you post in).

HTTP/3-only will not be a thing in the foreseeable future. One major reason is that clients actually need knowledge that a website supports HTTP/3. And how do they obtain that knowledge? It's over a HTTP/1.1 or HTTP/2 request which returns the Alt-Svc: h3 header. It will probably take decades until Alt-Svc over DNS (DNS-SVB) is fully specified and universally supported - and only after that websites can drop HTTP/x over TLS support. HTTP/3 is also just 50% as CPU efficient as TCP based HTTP versions, so using it doesn't make sense for every use-case.

Also even if HTTPS is forced, it doesn't mean HTTP is dead. HTTP is still the protocol we are running over a TLS connection, so it's here to stay.

The truth is, there is no public common knowledge about who did this. So unless you are leaking confidential information here, you are just speculating.
The reason isn't technical, it's because the author thinks a plugin shouldn't be able to modify itself on the fly.

I think he has a point. But besides, the modules included in Cardinal cover an incredible range; it's unlikely there's something one can't do with what's there.

The entirety of Surge XT has been pprted to VCV and is included in Cardinal for instance.

Maybe I'm jaded, but most articles like these are often just a bait-and-switch for something someone is selling. When I got to the end, there it was: the sales pitch. It never fails to disappoint.

The sales pitch negates the entire write-up. The program's not even ready so you're just collecting e-mails at this point.

This is anxiety we're talking about. Offering "early bird pricing" and some "free goodies" ? What the hell.

I think a way of avoiding hallucinations is using the same LLM with different values of the temperature parameter. Hallucinations, by their own nature, are prone to have great variance, so a change in temperature implies a big change in the story of facts inferred by the LLM, so it seems a main way of fighting hallucinations is checking coherence of the LLM using different values of temperature. So the probability of hallucinations is just the d(story)/d(temperature). This suggest to investigate how the embedding distance of small episodes change with temperature.
I'm not an expert on interest rate securities, but with e.g., physical goods the bag holder has physical goods or contracts for supply that allows them to meet their obligations.

Is something similar not possible with interest rates? I imagine for instance someone with lots of cash and little desire for risk could lend their money to the banks at overnight rates, collect the interest, and then offer swaps against that steam, no? Of course, no one's going to get their 10th mansion off of this. A little riskier, someone holding variable payment debts could do the same, as long as the loans are diverse the risk could stay low. In this way, the risk at least shifts from "we're screwed if interest rates change" to "we're screwed if interest rates change and many diverse loans start to fail to make payments" in which case you're probably screwed regardless.
Reducing Information Overload in Your Organization
I have stumbled upon your repository a week ago and I have to say, great work and great ideas!

Another thing I thought about is integrating formatting for fields using a similar system. ISO-8601 dates comes immediately to mind but also number and currency formatting are other examples.

Probabilistic enums is another thing that I can think of that might be useful for fallback values, I am pretty sure there's a lot of work that can be done in this area, also for other parser kinds

related and highly recommended resource is https://github.com/mkuchnik/relm and https://arxiv.org/abs/2211.15458. It is a similar system used to validate LLMs using regexes, however built for completely different use cases. I imagine integrating regex checks to the output fields can also have a lot of use cases.

If you're willing to forgo Linux, but want to be Linux adjacent, maybe look at getting the Linux hda drivers running on FreeBSD linuxkpi; HDMI audio on at least intel would work better with coordination between the audio driver and the video driver; FreeBSD uses Linux drivers for video, but not for audio and the coordination is missed, so the audio driver doesn't know when the video driver has reprogrammed the clocks for a different resolution and you get mistimed audio :(. Alternatively, figure out how to use the coordination hooks in the Linux video driver with the FreeBSD audio driver.

But really, to answer your question; the best thing is to find something that you actually want your computer to do that's feasible, but not possible because there's no kernel module. Then you'll be incentivized to keep going with the project, not just a resume/interview material project.
YouTube frequently need to update their anti scraping and anti piracy tech. There could be valid reasons why they don't inform Microsoft of the changes.

I use HTTPS Only mode in Firefox. For a site like this, what I would expect is it to not accept connections on port 443, then my browser would issue a “Secure Site Not Available” error page, and I’d have to click the “Continue to HTTP Site” button to allow it to connect over HTTP for the rest of the session.

What happens is it just gets served over HTTPS—the one attempted HTTPS-on-apex-to-HTTP-on-subdomain redirect being translated to HTTPS-on-subdomain and the server shrugging and talking HTTPS on the subdomain without complaint—obviously undermining the whole point of the site.

To my knowledge, no browser configuration flat-out blocks cleartext HTTP; they’re all willing to compromise, and if you’re using neverssl.com you obviously intend to use that compromise. That’s why I say that both the action and the explanation make no sense to me; I cannot comprehend any way in which they actually help the site’s purpose, and the absurdity of it makes the site a laughing-stock.
PINPal tool for helping memorize random passwords
You can debug it because the telnet tool and the kernels TCP stack reassemble a lot of binary TCP and IP frames for you. If they wouldn't, you would have a much harder time looking at it.

A QUIC library (or proxy) which reassembles all streams and just sends presents you the stream contents would allow you to run HTTP/1.1 over a QUIC and you have the same visbility. Just replace netcat with a hypothetical quiccat. Now obviously this would bring you not that much value for a real world deployment, since browsers and other tools don't do HTTP/1.1 over QUIC but prefer binary HTTP/3 over QUIC. But the comment about "use a tool that gives you a readable representation" still applies. You can use curl to get a readable request/response, browser dev tools. And if you need more insight, qvis (https://qvis.quictools.info) is pretty awesome.
> I think I can say with at least some minimum authority that the evidence that he existed is scant at best.

I'm not a historian. There is a consensus among the vast majority of historians that Jesus existed, right? I suppose there could be consensus without evidence, is that the case?

> Anyway, your comment is also missing the whole point of my comment

Yes, that's why I asked you to explain: I was missing the point of your comment.

> The idea of Jesus is powerful; it almost doesn't matter what his exact existence entailed.

Sure.
I'm interested in Neon and considering migrating to it. A few questions that I couldn't find a quick answer to:

1. When scaling to zero, what is the cold start for a request (including the time needed to make the connection)? Do you have benchmarks on this you could share?

2. Does Neon run a pgbouncer service or are customers expected to run their own? Is it better for AWS lambda functions to leave a connection open for the duration of the container lifecycle or open/close on each request?

3. Does Neon support HTTP for doing queries like serverless Aurora v1 does with its Data API? The use-case I have is direct AppSync GraphQL resolvers, not V8 isolate runtimes.
Yes, because saliva spills and "aerosol" are two different things...

Aerosol is when water and liquid particles remains in suspension in the air, just like moisture, mist, a perfume or fragrance.

And that's what spreads the virus. COVID transmission is with aerosol.

Face masks, including those in hospitals, don't block aerosol
There is also a lot of money sloshing around in real estate due to previous sustained low interest rates and QE. The problem is that some people can afford the current high prices (and will bid up anything they want), just everyone else can’t. Increasing money supply went into real estate for far too long.

I do, actually.

First, forcing children to solo-sleep was invented by the aristocracy. It doesn't come naturally (as evidenced by archaeological record, anthropological studies of primitive societies, and primate studies).

Second, none of the so-called benefits of child solo-sleep are supported by solid evidence.

Just because it became the "norm" in modern society is not sufficient reason to give it credence. We also used to push formula on infants because it was supposed to be better for them (my immigrant grandmother had a fit when she discovered that the hospital was feeding her drugs as a matter of course to stop her lactating). This policy was pushed by doctors and hospitals and public health officials for decades, with no evidence to support it (this is not a rant against medical personnel, but rather against procedural inertia without evidence - the very reason why we have the scientific method).

It's right up there with the bizarre America-wide policy of washing the protective film off eggs so that they now need to be refrigerated to prevent spoilage (and of course, every American "knows" that you must refrigerate eggs).

If you wish to push for something artificially induced only recently, the onus is upon you to provide extraordinary evidence to support it.

Doral Bank failed in 2015, so 8 years? Not quite 10. The GFC was 2008 which was 15 years ago though but people still remember that one.

Even though the FDIC chose to make depositors whole for SVB, Signature, and FRC, there's no written legal guarantee that they'll keep doing this, so in the face of that, I don't think people are forgetting the $250k FDIC limit.

Anyway, my point is no one's walking up and down Main St with their $10 million and opening 40 different bank accounts by hand because the finance industry invented a product (prior to SVB, even) so no one has to do that.

Just today we were being lectured by our pediatrician that our two year old needs to sleep in her own bed, in her own room. When we asked why, she went on a tangent that parents also need their own sleep and that she did it with her own kids when they were a few months old, and that she couldn't imagine getting much sleep with her kids etc etc. Basically, she didn't have any scientific arguments why it was better for her to sleep separately, other than "that's how things always have been done" and projecting her own preferences onto us.
Very cynical take: if there would’ve been a change in laws to increase ventilation, it would drastically reduce any illness, like flu, the common cold and other airborne viruses. This would lead to a decrease of taking vaccines for those, which would upset the big pharma.

Nearly any blanket-like measure was blocked by those. E.g. Vitamin-D supplementation, of which we know almost every indoor worker has a deficit of in western countries. Never ever was this prompted by govs even though there’s a clear correlation between deficit and deaths (not causation) and it has even antiviral properties (I suggest you to look into MedCram YouTube channel on videos around the first year of COVID where they go over many case studies on potential treatments)
That’s not something a webpage can access.
Very true. Actually HTTP now also just refers to the semantics. HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 are still HTTP. They all support requests, responses, verbs, status codes, headers, caching semantics, etc.

The only thing that might become less common is "HTTP/1.1 over TCP". But I get that this is much more verbose to write than "RIP HTTP".
That video feels like an AI saying: "this is what you look like to me". Of course it's really not quite getting things right, so the uncanny valley effect kicks in.

My first year University course advisor suggested I do the brand new Pascal programming course in ‘79.

They enrolled a couple of hundred students but only had 5 card punch machines and one reader. One month of 24/7 programming by trial and error, which the lecturers wanted to avoid, only two machines survived, one had a broken ‘b’ key.
