And yeah, for sure the only reason people outside of bluesky cannot see the content is because they're still figuring out how to actually serve image bytes over HTTP, which turned out to be a technically difficult problem that there is no prior research about.
Once it makes economic sense to design car models specifically for robotaxi use, small light one-passenger electric models may well become the most common type. In the graph I linked from my other reply, a one-person E.V. like this beat all of the transit systems and came in second only to an electric scooter/trike.
Yea, this is something I find annoying… I wonder what the solution is? Increasing the height of the bottom menu? Moving it a little higher and just wasting some of that vertical space?
Be that as it may, why would corporations that are tenants rather than landlords make decisions on that basis? Remote work saves companies a lot of money on office space.

Lotus Notes is criminally underrated. I don't think folks gave credit to the replication engine.
I was so stoked when Ray O was going to MS and thought he'd just kill it there, and I prayed bring Lotus like replication to sharepoint. I was not a huge notes fan early on as the UI was off-putting (I didn't know the UI was written to be cross platform - now it makes sense). But the functionality it provided and the millions of notes DBs written, is truly amazing and it has a huge place of respect in my book. Ray is tops in my book.
There is no “potentially revolutionary medical treatment” that would be held up at Neuralink by holding them to standard animal testing practices. In fact, they would be sped up since the extremely sloppy processes at Neuralink actually slow down the development of medically useful and safe procedures.

For instance there is no medical research benefit to inserting the wrong implant into 25 different pigs. It just requires duplicated work and calls into question the validity of any results they might have as they might be erroneous.

Another reason is that human testing is a critical part of developing a actually useful implant and demands the utmost concern for safety. Having a culture of slapdash, reckless disregard for their animal test subjects means they will be grossly unqualified to operate on human subjects. In fact, we have already seen evidence of this by the fact that the FDA has rejected their applications to begin human clinical testing citing safety concerns.

Causing extra animal suffering while not only getting no benefit from it, but actually causing net harm is the definition of needless. Even McDonald’s is better than that; at least they provide some people something of positive value.

So actually React does not address your precious Optimistic UI, you as a developer rely on an separate 3rd party library to handle it. We all know that React, a decade old by now, has a wider ecosystem. If that's your argument, then I guess every developer using emerging or niche languages, libraries and frameworks is wrong in your eyes. However, you're a guy who relies on "State of JS" to decide what to use, as opposed to thinking for yourself.

Hah, yeah. Classic Freudian slip. The best endorsement for remote work right there.
I worked 40% remote from 2002 until the pandemic, when I (like all my colleagues) went to 100% wfh. Now we don't even have an office anymore. I've never been more productive, or happier with my work. In my experience, Sam Altman is just wrong.
I also find a corner office, high floor, prime aspect with a view over a major metropolis to be beneficial to my productivity. 500sq ft++, with private bathroom should do it. Also outdoor roof space, optional but it really is the difference between 5x and 10x for me.
Couldn't you also buy GPUs in person with cash and mine with them?

Nah, I'm good. I have been much more productive at home than I've ever been in the office. Happier too; I'm saving 2 hours of travel time per day, that I now get to spend on my hobbies. Not going back.

Waymo and Jaguar announced in 2018 plans to build up to 20,000 vehicles in the first two years of production [0]

Cheap shots, I know (they did say "up to" 20,000 vehicles, after all). Waymo have been making great progress lately, and it's nice to see the AV industry has transitioned from wild claims to steady progress.

How can I run some inference with this model locally? Do I have to make a huggingface account?
It is still going on. It was definitely four or five years ago, but it was also definitely happening at about the same rate ever since.

Nobody but a shill would reasonably say otherwise.
That looks great on desktop, how would you make it responsive?
I think it is possible for a non-profit, non-commercial (and probably open source) social network platform to produce an 'algorithmic feed' that is some degree of 'good'. As you allude to, existing companies are incentivised to drive engagement by sucking you into some kind of drama to pump ad impressions.

I believe that a platform which doesn't have such financial incentives could produce a different spin on an algorithmic feed which isn't as unhealthy.

I also believe it should always be optional, and transparent. I probably wouldn't want to use it - I'm only interested in what the people i explicitly follow have to say.
I can't help but feel that Sam Altman's statement dismissing remote work as the "worst mistake of the tech industry" is not only greedy but also shortsighted.

Personally, remote work has given me the flexibility to balance my work and personal life, while also allowing me to collaborate with talented individuals from around the globe. It has broken down barriers and enabled us to build a more diverse and inclusive workforce.

By brushing off remote work, we are ignoring the countless benefits it has brought to both employees and employers. I've seen my own commute times reduced, experienced better work-life balance, and enjoyed improved mental health, all thanks to remote work. Additionally, businesses can save on operational costs due to decreased office space requirements.

The environmental impact of remote work should not be understated either. As someone who used to commute daily, I've come to appreciate how reduced commutes can lead to a significant decrease in greenhouse gas emissions and contribute to a cleaner, more sustainable planet.

Living in a world where technology enables us to collaborate and communicate seamlessly from anywhere, why should we restrict ourselves to the confines of a physical office? Remote work has the power to create better solutions, foster innovation, and improve the overall quality of life for everyone involved.
You conveniently skipped over the "your account is frozen" and "your transactions are flagged and reversed" parts, and you are splitting hairs now. If you're not concerned by the problems addressed by cryptocurrency, nobody is forcing you to use it.

“4 door” pickup trucks are the most popular but many of those don’t actually fit 5 full sized adults. Some don’t even have 3 seatbelts on the second row because people really need to sit sideways.

The breakdown is somewhat vague but Regular, Extended, Crew, Quad are noticeably different cab sizes.

At the other end 3rd row pickups are coming…
Agree with the other comments about adding more to your landing page. There are tons of notes apps out there but yours is actually a very cool take. If it wasn't for the YouTube videos linked from this thread, I wouldn't have understood what you have built at all. I imagine any of the following would be quite helpful.

> So is the problem just that politicians don't relate or understand something like a medical study as well as they do driving, and don't understand the tradeoffs and burden required to try to make sure nothing went wrong, ever? If anything, I'd expect that to result in industry lobbyists pushing deregulation to have a much easier go of it than they have. So I don't get it.

Yes, it's that politicians and importantly members of the public don't relate. Driving is so ubiquitous in the US that almost everyone does it. Almost everyone with the ability to decide things in America or who has the time to lobby for something has been a driver and can empathize with a driver who was doing their best but encountered something unexpected on the road and ended up in a crash (note my usage of passive language, specifically to build up this frame-of-mind, even though in reality it isn't like this.)

The average American doesn't see themselves as the creators of new drugs nor do they see themselves as airline pilots. Even if the harms American perpetuate via driving are actually worse than the harms of the other two, without the ability to empathize as the creator of a drug or a commercial airline pilot, they're much more likely to favor heavy censure for wrongdoing for something they see as being done by someone else. It's a case of "Look grandma was trying her best when she accidentally crashed into the kid" vs "Those elites at Johns Hopkins trying to pull the wool over our eyes." The less likely the average American is to work a job, the more likely the average American is at heavily regulating that job.

It's a big problem with American regulations because everyday harms are swept under the rug while rare harms perpetrated by a minority are dealt with harshly.

As someone who doesn't seem to be a deep into the specifications (ActivityPub nor AT Protocol) as you are, how does ActivityPub handle people moving across servers without loosing old content and interactions? Like if I use server A but want to move to server B, how does that work in practice? How does server C who used to communicate with server A get notified that they now have to communicate with server B instead?

It's difficult to distinguish this from neo-Luddism. Maybe there is nothing productive for those people to do. If so, we can address it then. But the history of technological revolutions–from the agrarian to the internet–suggests the opposite. (We are, after all, discussing jobs which first arose around a century ago.)
I think being open and honest about the problems the electorate and elected leaders have caused is the first step in the direction of fixing them.

> In response to an inquiry from Reuters, the USDA said it had found no conflicts of interest on Neuralink’s board when the department inspected its animal-research operations during 10 inspections since 2020. The company has passed all inspections with no citations, according to public records and a person with knowledge of the examinations.

I'm not going to get too worked up by a private company doing something that has received no complaints from the federal agency in charge of overseeing it. If you think the USDA's regulations are too lax, that's something that we the people can potentially change.

Just like masking and locking down 4 year olds, Everyone is singing the same tune again. Who is their puppeteer.
Yeah. As someone that’s quite bearish on JS altogether, and as someone that’s worked on a few old-school multi-step forms recently, we can’t pretend that this was and still is anything other than a code and UX disaster. And…I’m not an idiot, I understand different HTTP request types and how browsers handle going back through history. I know that there’s not something obvious I’m missing. I’ve put the work in. The reality is that non-JS web technologies aren’t very good at some things that are quite common and that many people expect in anything more than a brochure site.

I’m just so miffed that it can end up necessitating roping in so much BS. Mind you, not necessarily in this example. Things like HTMX excite me. And, on the other side, things like Next.js and Remix that IMO are a breath of fresh air, even if they might not ultimately be heading in the right direction (I genuinely have no idea).
Success is mostly luck and finding opportunities from people who will give them to you. Fancy lottery with ceremony.
Ask HN: Suing Facebook in small claims?
Hello dear HN. I am looking for advise,
I have a Facebook account that has been suspended for unknown reasons, other than I somehow 'broke' the community standards.
It is unclear to me which ones however. When I try to re-log in I am stopped by an endless AI bot, and cannot get a hold of a real person.

I am still paying monthly for Facebook Ads for my small business. However, I cannot log in to cancel these Ads. I tried contacting my credit card company, but FB uses a different vendor account for each bill posted, making it difficult for the credit card company to stop these transactions.

I attempted emailing FB several time to legal@facebook.com.
And I wrote a letter twice, and sent in the mail via postage, with tracking, which was delivered, to cancel my Ad services and provide a refund. No response however.

Should I proceed to small claims court to recover about $300 of lost Ad revenue, for a service which I can no longer use? I am still being billed to.
Does anybody have any experience with this?

The C-suite of the company I worked for during lockdown fretted a lot about the lack of usage of the office space. The problem they had was that they had a long-term lease on the building. They couldn't get out of it, and it burned a lot of money.

They had a political problem with investors (why are you wasting all this money of office space that nobody is going to?) and getting people back into the office was the easiest way to take that heat off of them.

They did eventually force everyone back in the office, but I had moved on shortly before that happened.

I agree with this. You need SOME time in person, especially with an early stage startup.
Does anyone else prefer the Ruby typed parameter syntax over the Python one even though the author says it would likely be rejected by Rubyists? Here's an example from the post:

# Python's current type hints

def readlines(name: str, chomp: bool = False):

vs

# Ruby's potentially valid type hints that don't exist today

def readlines(String name, Boolean chomp: false)

I know with Ruby you often want to put more important things first, because it deserves to be the center of attention but in the above case I think the 2nd one is so much more readable at a glance. There's less syntactic noise with the Ruby example because it avoids the equals sign and excess colons. You could also make a case when calling a function both the type and name of the param itself are really important. If you think of this as a user experience exercise, someone calling your function is the user. As a user I very much like the idea of knowing what I need to pass in and "what I need to pass in" is a combination of a descriptive name and potential type.

At a fundamental level, imperative or partially imperative languages are nice because you can typically build upon what you know to do new things in incremental steps.

For example if you know how to make a variable and a loop you can combine your knowledge to make a nested loop and mutate a variable without learning any new concepts.

The Ruby example feels like you're incrementally adding something new. I don't really need to learn anything new to understand I'm adding types. It's also very clean looking. The Python one looks like a different language. I mean, I know both Python and Ruby and use them regularly but `chomp: bool = False` just looks icky to me. It's like some weird hybrid Python / Ruby combo and takes a few seconds to understand.

I'd just guess that all of Cisco's customers are organizations that can do one-off negotiations (e.g., complain to sales rep, have lawyer write nastygram), and normally don't want to get involved in addressing the problem for everyone (by, e.g., complaining to government officials, raising a fuss on social media)?

Presumably less demand for space will reduce cost of that space allowing for smaller, newer, experimental businesses to be able to buy into that space.

Commercial space can become less about being a place to work or to store a bunch of products to sell, to places where people meet and hangout, to train and collaborate, and to build synergies between businesses that benefit from sharing resources.
