I've had crazy bad problems dealing with them. I ordered a part ($20 ish + shipping) and long story short, their fraud system went crazy and decided it was a scam order or something and cancelled the order. No email notification, nothing. I only found out after calling and calling and eventual some higher up explained why the order was cancelled. I was waiting two weeks and it wasn't even processed!

This happened a second time with the same item, and then eventually they _finally_ shipped it on try #3. Go with someone else until they prioritize customer service.
hobbyists would likely use something like gambas, where they don't need the 100% vb6 compatibility. this seems more targeted to businesses who want actual vb6 code to run.
Friend, I’m Aussie as well and listing mining and geophysics as having anything to agriculture weakens your appeal to authority, making the subsequent snark even less appropriate for HN.

My Sennheiser HD8s and their propietary cable begs to differ. And also keep in mind you are favoring Bose, the multi-million dollar company that didn't bat an eye when they decided to introduce spyware on their app.

Apple has done the wrong thing many times, but audio is not one of them. They offered a legitimate better product, to the point the only headphones I would rather use are IEMs that cost 8 times as much.
Yeah people haven’t used GPT enough if they think it can do all these things. Same with AutoGPT - it’s a total joke that got hyped up to high heavens. Go try to make it actually do anything of value and watch it struggle to parse Google results and get stuck in an infinite loop every time. LangChain has the right idea because you must break down the task to small parts and program the thing to do the correct thing after each step

Any money i could give to google is a drop in their ocean of ad revenue, that's why. Google is being disingenuous af, nothing new. Also Youtube has become so important it should be much more regulated.
Are you a user of this particular product though?

I personally don't play video games anymore because single-player is largely an afterthought, and they no longer come in a box costing $20-50. That was my mental model of the games business, but the industry has moved on to DLCs, microtransactions, subscriptions etc. And seeing as how gaming is bigger than ever, the majority appears to have accepted the pricing changes that I did not.

Similarly, those that pay for porn have likely had to adjust to the changing realities of that industry.

orthogonality is almost perfectly wrong; ethics&planning ability is highly correlated with intelligence

I'm guessing you're a very nice person. There have been a lot of smart people in history who gained power and did very, very nasty things. If you're nice, being smarter means being better at being nice. If you're not, it means being better at doing whatever not-nice things you want to do.

And we're just talking about humans vs humans here. From the point of view of, say, chickens, I don't think they'd rate the smarter people who invented factory farming as nicer than the simple farmers who used to raise 10 birds in a coop.

I mean, if you exclude AGI, there are some ways that humans can wipe ourselves out, but I feel like we're identifying the big existential risks early enough to handle them. Intelligence that isn't human is the real danger.

Go loops define pointers for scope-defined variables at the loop, rather than iteration, level, so there's a common "gotcha" where you intern a pointer to access it outside of the loop (such as pushing it onto an array), and then discover that its value is clobbered by subsequent runs of the loop. There is a proposal to change this, since it's a source of confusion and bugs, particularly when `range`ing over pointers.

What the code snippet demonstrates is that, for a contrived scenario, the proposal in question also creates an unexpected result when you expect pointers to remain stable between loop iterations. To be honest, I can't think of any time where this would be an issue for me (as opposed to writing `foo := foo`); Go has quite a bit of cognitive friction in its loop semantics, so anything to reduce unexpected behavior is welcome to my mind.
Thank you! If you had tried to use it before, it probably would have broken pretty quickly. Now it will still break, but not so quickly as to not be useful, hopefully.

External contributions are mostly blocked on me right now to improve both user and developer docs (improve = write the first draft in this case).
Very nice!

I've been wanting to move to something like Graphene or e/OS but they seem set on only supporting most of their security features on Pixel hardware.

I don't want a Pixel because I don't want anything Google. This seems like a fantastic alternative, and eventually Graphene will support it - in the meanwhile there is DivestOS.

I barely use my phone for making calls via the cellular network anyway, and I'm always in a big city with good reception, so not too worried about some of the issues people are talking about. Everything's a compromise anyway.
Any word on battery life for these devices?
The role that digestive systems potentially play for our behavior is via neurotransmitters, so in the end it is the neurons, that are responsible.

Well on a serious note, there was a story that made the rounds recently about a study that showed children in families with pets had reduced allergies/sensitivities to allergens.
They never figured out how to diversify away from targeted ads. All that AI prowess was mainly to figure out how to manipulate people to click on the steadily increasing number of ads.

Meanwhile they gamified display ads to the point that the web slowly turned into pure clickbait so there’s nothing even left to search for - 99% of content from the last decade is dogshit.

With ChatGPT my web searches are down by at least 50% and more than 80% of the ones I still do are on DuckDuckGo.

Those businesses are already viable, without App Store, as evidenced by Twitch and OnlyFans.

App Store deserves plenty of criticism, Youtube's failure to produce a viable ecosystem for accepting tips for videos is not Apple's fault.

There are really wonky arguments here trying to justify rent seeking in the App Store, walled gardens, and completely closed ecosystems. And I'm not sure why anyone would be supportive of any of those things outside of being pro-Apple. No other company seems to get that type of pass.

There was a thread the other day where some people seemed pretty miffed that Google requires a Pixel to connect to the internet before you can unlock it's bootloader.

Then you go into a thread about third party app stores on iPhones and you see people saying that being blocked from installing software that Apple hasn't blessed is actually a feature.

Different people and all that. But the general sentiment on HN is definitely more forgiving of Apple than others.
Not that that would, by definition, affect anyone possessing a near-perfect model of the universe.

i think the belief is rather that the compiler needs to reliably distinguish between -0 and +0 except where it explicitly invokes arithmetic comparison, and so the semantics of both =:= and unification should change to distinguish -0 from +0

i don't know what it would mean to not unify cases where the ieee floating point number had the same representation, assuming that by 'unify' you mean 'paattern-match) (erlang doesn't have full bidirectional unification where run-time data can contain variables which could be instantiated with constants from a pattern). what would the semantics of unification be then? no pattern could ever match a term containing a floating point number?

or perhaps you aren't aware that 'unify' means 'pattern-match' (prolog style) and we are discussing a pattern-matching bug, and by 'unify cases' you just mean 'remove one of two cases'. i think it's very likely that the compiler needs to remove redundant cases that fall out of its optimizer in order to get decent performance, and if the user puts them in their code it's probably a bug
If those libraries were set up correctly, this would cause typechecking to fail.
> In addition, there will be a great crowding out effect. If websites and apps are so easy to create now, there will be a deluge of junk to come. Every mediocre idea will be put forth.

Perhaps it will be the opposite. There's a lot of domain experts out there that might be able to turn their idea into reality.
There's probably some selection bias there. Many people with ADHD aren't so proud as to announce to people that they're on medication. It wouldn't surprise me if the engineers who told you they're on meds are just brogrammers who just take the stimulants for performance rather than to just feel normal.

After having spent over a decade in the field, I benefit a lot from taking medication. I've been diagnosed with ADHD twice independently, and was initially opposed to medication. At this point in my life, I simply can't recapture the drive I once had that helped me overcome my dysregulated attention. My meds have helped me to not burn out.
We used to use this sort of locking in (frequently running) system cron jobs and the like. Then these jobs started getting killed off by Linux OOM on some systems and we ran into the downsides of locks that don't automatically clear if something goes wrong, and switched to flock(1) based locks (fortunately on the local system, so we're not affected by NFS issues there).

No, because they are designed for developers and privacy nuts first, not average customers. Devices like this will never achieve a level of polish necessary for general uptake. Heck, the Moko and N900 died precisely because they were too niche to justify the price.

I think it isn't a "too focused" effect so much as an "any focus" effect. It's just a matter of degree.

And that darkness, that wraparound blind spot. It doesn't exist. You know what I mean? It, in all likelihood, is not accounted for at all in your reality.

I mean, you don't say to yourself, "gosh, I'm blind to all this stuff". No. the stuff just doesn't exist.

And add habit to the mix, that subconscious robot. Habit that governs this universe-dividing attention.

Titanic feats of reality-conditioning could be happening right under your nose, constantly. And you'd never even know it.
That IP is sold overseas, so the USA has pushed very very hard to have copyright extended on other countries, presumably because it is a huge financial benefit to the USA (and indirectly to its citizens). Copyright extension is a non-negotiable item in a number of international agreements.

> Aren't Pixels some of the longest-supported phones, security update wise?

Apple's $399 original iPhone SE from 2016 got six years of OS updates and received another security update last month.

> It's horrible but no more horrible than the rest of the child exploitation globally to make the stuff we want which is not possible without....child labor.

It is most certainly possible without child labor. It's not like adult labor in the DRC is particularly expensive. The per capita value of all the cobalt America uses per year is less than $1. If it were lying on the sidewalk, you probably wouldn't bother to bend over to pick up the amount of money you save by having child labor in those mines. The idea that we need child labor is asinine.
> It appears to be the first time Apple has used the method to catch a source of internal leaks.

>It's not clear alignment of a super-intelligence is even a solvable problem.

More to the point it's clear from watching the activity in the open source community at least that many of them don't want aligned models. They're clambering to get all the uncensored versions out as fast as they can. They aren't that powerful yet, but they sure ain't getting any weaker.

I think Paul Christiano has a significantly more well calibrated view on how things are likely to unfold. Though I think Eliezer is right about the premise that it at least ends badly, but likely wrong on most of the details. I suspect his gut instinct is that he realizes on a base level that not only do you have to align all AGI systems, but you have to align all humans too such that they only build and use aligned AGI systems if you even knew how to do it, which you don't.

Studying the failure modes of humanity has been my hobby for the last 15 or so years. I feel like I'm watching the drift into failure in real-time.

If you really don't want to be able to sleep tonight watch Ben Goertzel laugh flippantly at how rough he thinks it's going to be after describing that his big fear if his team succeeds in building AGI is that someone will come and try to take it for themselves, so spent a non-trivial amount of effort (I think he said a year?) working on decentralized AGI infrastructure, so that it can be deployed globally and ,"no one can person can shut it down and stop the singularity".

> Final Cut Pro is a thing people already use in their workflow, becoming more convenient for them. People have depended on this as part of their production-ready workflow for over 20+ years now, and FCP-folks seem to have a lot of trust in the application and related tooling, that Apple isn't going to leave or abandon Final Cut anytime soon.

All of that may be well and good, and yet I can't remotely get excited by an announcement that it's being ported from PC/laptop to iPad. Are professionals really going to be using iPads for this use case en masse? Was there a lot of people upset that they had to use a PC/laptop for this, and a lot of pent-up demand for an even more portable version?

It's hard to think of any platform port that would be amazing exciting news, let alone this one!

Do an Internet search for “Quartex Pascal”, and/or its creator, Jon Aasenden. He has a blog on WordPress, and a Facebook group. His crazy Quartex project is apparently nearing completion. It's an Object Pascal compiler and IDE — kind of a Delphi / Lazarus clone, if you will — that compiles to JavaScript, for the end product to be run in the browser. I think that's as close to “Visual Basic for the web” as one can get.
She knowingly made false and fraudulent claims about what she was doing, how she was doing it. She knowingly gave false medical test results to people causing significant harm (not something that she has been penalized for). She destroyed the lives of anyone who reported negatively about her or theranos.

You can claim all you like that she thought she could do what she claimed that she was doing.

But that doesn't matter.

She knew for a fact that they were not doing what she was claiming, and she knowingly lied about that.

She is a fraudster. She is a criminal. That amount people bend over to support her - and other similar "founders" - is bizarre.

It does not matter if they thought what they was saying was possible, if they know for a fact that that is not what they are doing.
Personally I don't like the "write to disk" approach; I think it kind of just punts the state problem somewhere else (i.e. from memory to disk). Writing to a database and adding versioning is better, but that's a lot of machinery to expect a notebook user to adopt (though maybe better tooling could help). Also a lot of Python objects are not out-of-the-box pickleable (e.g. generators). Also pickle is a mess.
The problem now is the harbor freight ones are too good and basically will never break; so if you don't know what you're missing, you never find out.
