Not sure if this is exactly what you're describing but I noticed the open-source Diablo engine DevilitionX has Zerotier built in to allow online multiplayer sessions.

I thought it was interesting way for an open-source game to provide a way to find other players without relying on paid dedicated servers.

Of course, in patent US11556786B2, Google finally mopped up the decoder-only idea. https://patents.google.com/patent/US11556786B2/en

"1. A method of generating an output sequence comprising a plurality of output tokens from an input sequence comprising a plurality of input tokens, the method comprising, at each of a plurality of generation time steps:
generating a combined sequence for the generation time step that includes the input sequence followed by the output tokens that have already been generated as of the generation time step; processing the combined sequence using a self-attention decoder neural network, wherein the self-attention decoder neural network comprises a plurality of neural network layers that include a plurality of masked self-attention neural network layers, and wherein the self-attention decoder neural network is configured to process the combined sequence through the plurality of neural network layers to generate a time step output that defines a score distribution over a set of possible output tokens; and selecting, using the time step output, an output token from the set of possible output tokens as the next output token in the output sequence."
In my experience browser based apps are sooooo slow compared to native ones.

Also no offline support at all.

And they have access to all of my data because I have to upload it.

I just want to use lightroom to edit my vacation photos, I don't want to upload all of my photos over my slow internet connection just to edit them in a high-latency browser app. Also I'm likely traveling in a vehicle without stable internet.

Ask HN: How long till I can watch videos in any language?
How long will it actually be until I can watch videos in my language but in the voice of the original speaker?

The AI tools should be able to do that soon:

I'm assuming both that you're arguing in good faith, and that your ability to use search engines must be seriously impaired. So here goes:

1875 - US v Cruikshank. Held that states have the ability to regulate firearms independent of the Federal government.

1939 - US v Miller. Held that the "obvious purpose" of the 2nd Amendment was insuring effective state militias. Specifically insisting that only those guns usable in militia service and held for the purpose of militia service were protected by the Second Amendment.

Until DC v Heller in 2008, this was all settled law.

Until 1977, the NRA was focused mostly on firearms safety education, recreational shooting/hunting, and marksmanship/sportsmanship. A group of right-wingers took over at the 1977 annual convention and by 1980 was solely focused on expanding the 2nd Amendment and more importantly, financing candidates who would oppose any gun control. Reagan was the first president ever endorsed by the organization, and within a decade the NRA had tremendous influence on the Republican Party. And they funded an incredible amount of legal "scholarship" attempting to shore up the sandy foundations of their 2nd Amendment interpretation.

Er, I like GDPR, and it was EU-wide, but each member still would have to write its own framework into its legal system to implement GDPR as it saw fit. Those frameworks are all different in their detail.

E.g. Germany has the BDSG, and the UK has (had?) the DPA.

Patent lingo is necessarily more generic than the lingo used within the machine learning space. For example, within patents, they will talk about using computers to do things, which is obvious outside of the patent world. But when writing a patent, you have to actually mention that you're going to use a computer to implement a neural network.
Speed, responsiveness, uncluttered UI.

I AM AMAZED that the average Pascal program of the day compiled faster on my old 386 than the average program compiles today in the latest and greatest workstation. Also don't get me started on cloud remote desktops. Go compare the immediacy of this garbage vs an old DOS computer in most applications.

About the UI... Dozens of flashing buttons, toasts and pings vs a Zen interface where you can, well, just focus on work.

This reminds me of the lessons from the book "Ishmael" by Daniel Quinn. One of the main characters is teaching another lessons throughout the book using a Montessori approach. One of the big lessons is to only take what you need, and to appreciate these things we take for granted. I highly recommend it if you haven't read it already.
For anyone interested in the historical context, I strongly recommend this blogpost on it:

It's worth trying to work out. People love exchanging money for goods and services. The more you can do for them aside from actually reading the book for them, the better. When other people take care of things, one can relax and enjoy oneself.

Even if you can only do it for 50% of members because of whatever logistical problem, it's worth it. Although it seems it'd be simple enough to email publishers and offer to buy X number of copies of an ebook in the context of a book club.

And what if that bleeding is from numerous sources internal and external, from a long succession of rough situations? You might not even die from blood loss, you might just have such anemia that mustering your strength to gather the resources needed to survive becomes harder and harder until you perish from exhaustion and lack of sustenance.

I find that often the end of things comes down not just to a single definable cause, but when a few events that might have been weathered successfully in isolation happen in an overlapping manner, and may cause additional problems otherwise.
They’ll probably do something similar to Xcode and have a version download stored somewhere.
Google's patent for decoder-only transformers
HN recently discussed the encoder-decoder transformer patent (https://patents.google.com/patent/US10452978B2/en). Perhaps it's more important to talk about the decoder-only patent they also filed.
and I was sure i was the inventor. great idea!
I honestly believe that companies which dont support linux are made of inexperienced people, be it management or engineers. It’s such a basic requirement that your app whatever it may be should be cross platform.
Segment anything and Stable Diffusion showcase app
Sharing our reference application that we built using Stable Diffusion and Segment Anything.

Stable Diffusion + Segment Anything - https://www.editanything.ai/ (try out the app!)

We believe chaining different models can lead to impressive user experiences and as an AI product owner you can really differentiate yourself from others if you use several models in creative ways.

https://github.com/fal-ai/edit-anything-app

In the example there is python code to do the model inference as well as the javascript code to build the application. I believe this would be a great reference implementation for people trying to build their own AI apps.

Made a short video explaining the application: https://youtu.be/ob_WOogJn_A

If there is interest would love to do a walkthrough of the codebase with a video as well!

I contacted ecobee to get clarification on one of their wire diagrams and they were able to provide customer support. I buy zooz smart devices which are much cheaper than a nest and they have given me detailed wiring instructions based on photos I sent them. It is possible to be profitable and provide customer support. Most customers aren't contacting support every time they buy a product. Building a good reputation helps sell more product.
> I found it interesting that I had to discover this cure on my own.

This is sadly true for so many things in medicine. The doctor may or may not care, but either way they only have 10 minutes for you and are highly incentivized to push some very expensive pills to make you go away instead of being able to analyze the issue in any depth.

I used to suffer greatly from gout, to the level of being bedridden for a month+ unable to move from the pain. All the doctors could offer were some pills that helped a little but didn't cure it and had somewhat nasty side effects. And I'd have to take them for life, almost guaranteeing liver problems later in life.

With so much time unable to move, I spent it doing all the research I could and one day randomly happened upon research on childhood diabetes that noted that increased fructose intake leads to higher uric acid (which causes gout). So it wasn't even a case where the research didn't exist, it's just that it lived under the folder "childhood diabetes" instead of in the folder "non-diabetic adult with gout", so no doctor made the connection.

I cut as much fructose off my diet as possible and within a month my blood uric acid was lower than ever and the gout completely cured, no need for any pills. That was over a decade ago, still doing great.
Heya, I'm new to this platform would like to discuss topics with students of my age in high school :)
Sorry, just seeing this now

Try to picture you flying a plane in a game. You're over a lake and your plane is occluding a mountain in the distance.

With SSR, those bits of the mountain your plane is blocking won't be rendered in the reflection.

Same with a fishing rod. They're tall and block a lot of things in the distance, thus breaking SSR.

Pay attention to the reflection in the water here when Sonic casts the rod (time-stamped): https://youtube.com/watch?v=IaPMkpDOFng&t=42s

Since it doesn't make sense to have a hole in a reflection when there's not actually a hole in the object, the reflection just stops when something occludes the object being reflected.

This obviously depends substantially on the implementation, but (especially for standalone devices) there tends to be metadata access associated with translating a given LBA to a physical page. This brings cache locality of reference into the picture, and any workload that is "random enough" such that the metadata working set exceeds the cache will suffer...
There are pros and cons. I prefer chopsticks in cases where tongs aren't needed, because they are easy to clean and don't scratch the surface. They also pivot to other uses like stirring, light beating, turning (e.g. a cutlet) . chopsticks can keep me from soiling 2-3 other hard-to-clean utensils
That's true(ish) but it has nothing to do with sequential access patterns in LBA space.

I guess they want to have "universal experience" and I don't blame them. Though, in case of Android they are going to rebrand k9-mail AFAIK.
This is not a good take. Yes there is a lot more going on in brains than just neuronal activity, we don’t understand most of it. But understanding neurons and their connections is necessary (but not sufficient) to understanding what we consider intelligence.
Also, 250k is a lot of neurons! Individual ants, as well as fruit flies which have even fewer neurons, show behavior we may consider intelligent.

Yes, I didn't disagree with that. All I'm saying if you're already using JWTs, you're not locked out completely from implementing these features. It just comes with a drawback that might be worth it, depending on your customerbase and team size.

I agree that it is a cultural issue. When cheating is rampant in a class, it is often because an instructor either does not properly motivate the work, or assigns too much work, or both.

I work hard to motivate my students. The first point, that I think virtually every student would agree with, is that we all do not want to pay a lot of money to waste our time, right? Cheating is a waste of time and money.

I occasionally hear from students that they think a given class is merely an obstacle on their career path. E.g., “if I get a bad grade in this algorithms class then I can’t get that prestigious job.” I try to remind them that they will be expected to do certain things at prestigious jobs.

I think the second, and more important point about cheating is that it devalues yourself. We only live once. We should do it excellently, because by doing things excellently, we find the value in our lives. And, in case it isn’t clear, by “excellent” I do not mean “A+ work.” I mean, simply, striving to do our best. I have a lot of respect for a student who takes a challenging course and earns a low grade than one who prefers not to challenge themselves at all.

Still, I am not always successful, and students cheat in my class. I understand many of the reasons (time pressure, family pressure, etc), but it is my sincere wish that we could find a way past all of that. College can be—-and is for some—-an opportunity to elevate oneself. If you’ve ever had that before, it’s an experience that you hope others will be able to share.
Universal all-purpose Borges recommendation:

"You should read Jorge Luis Borges's short story 'Pierre Menard, Author of the Quixote'. It’s only six pages long, and you'll be wanting to drop me a postcard to thank me for pointing it out to you." - Douglas Adams
To be honest, this description is leaning heavily on the associations we have with individual words used. Ant "architecture" isn't like our architecture. Ant "plumbing" and "ventilation" have little in common with the kind of plumbing and ventilation we use in buildings. "Nurseries", "rearing the young", that's just stretching the analogy to the point of breaking. "Agriculture", "animal husbandry" - I don't even know how to comment on that. "Social stratification" is literally a chemical feedback loop - ant larvae can be influenced by certain pheromones to develop into different types of ants, which happen to emit pheromones suppressing development of larvae into more ants of that type. Etc.

I could go on and on. Point being, analogies are fun and sometimes illuminating, but they're just that. There's a vast difference in complexity between what ants do, and what humans do.
it's more about pivoting between work and eating . like using a keyboard while eating cheetos.

a whole town, depending on how things are done would look a bit different, but would handle different too.

First, assuming that people are growing all sorts of things, and not trying to monoculture, you will get an explosion in different kinds of insects and their predators.

Second, you should get an explosion of colour

fourthly, and possibly more importantly, much higher water retention.

I agree messaging to workers about this kind of thing is always disrespectful (like telling them it will free up their time for more important things). But I also think it's disrespectful to keep someone employed at a task that could be easily automated. That said, I don't think customer service is easily automated. It's more attempts to train the customer to accept being treated like shit.
Possibly we're meaning different things! I was meaning we have brains to understand what we should avoid (over)eating and willpower to choose to act on that knowledge.

I sync about two hundred thousands of files without any problems, especially if your aren't changing them all the time. The only issue I can imagine is initial sync with so many files might take a while, even if total size isn't huge.
As for several terabytes, for me it's a bit less than a terabyte in total for all synced folders, but also can't see why it wouldn't scale up. I guess similar, initial hashing might take some time, but otherwise it should handle it well.
There are many things that we accept in the US that have both beneficial and harmful uses: guns, cars, knives, alcohol, Tylenol. Many of those kinds of things disproportionately impact one sex (or category) of people, but that their overall utility outweighs the risks and downsides. Our solution is to ban the abuses (murder, assault, stalking) but not the product itself. I don’t see why this one needs special treatment.

The WASPs of a generation ago didn't need to cheat; as long as they could graduate they were almost assured of a good job. Now with more students going to college and employers being more selective in hiring the stakes seem higher. Cheating is never right, but I understand why more students are doing it.

As for changing the culture, one necessary step would be that employers would have to stop looking at GPA.
