Which requires a trademark registration for your logomark to be accepted if I understand it correctly.

Since DMARC and SPF exist and are both also supported, all this checkmark does is indicate that the sender has trademarked their logo which, in this context, doesn't say very much at all.

I feel like this solves a problem that didn't exist, at the cost of invoking a false sense of trustworthiness in the sender. Not dissimilar to Twitter's new checkmark system but then for affluent businesses.
That's an odd choice as WordPress, which is by far the most popular CMS, uses ?s= as a search query.

While this is clearly a pathetic lawsuit, I do think it highlights that OpenAI’s status as a non profit is a sham.

Likely they adopted the non profit status as a recruiting tool and they should drop it and join the ranks of for profit companies.

Matomo is decent, but my main issue with it is the performance when run at any sort of scale. It's PHP/MySQL, which is nice for ease of self-hosting, but it means a lot of things need to be pre-calculated.

FWIW, I’m not a huge fan of current wireless charging because of how inefficient the tech is. So much energy is wasted bridging the space between the coils.

The evidence? The heat generated by the coils, which you can easily feel, especially with the higher wattage chargers.

To me, that waste matters, since it’s something so easily eliminated with very little effort.
Not really. It lacks the insight and the attention to small changes and under the hood improvements of the Siracusa's reviews, in my opinion.

A quarter of my output over the last 12 years has ended up this way. But most of those projects were built as MVPs to prove a concept by installing a demo system in situ and we learned a ton from it. And some of those projects I finished for 1/100 the cost of our competitors POC systems in the same market.

A lot of what makes my job enjoyable or not is in whether there’s a business case for what I’m doing. If some VP is asking me to fiddle around with something that’s never going anywhere I’ll be miserable. But if I’m fiddling around to build something that drives more revenue or makes people happy with our product then I’m there.

I have to port an app I've written in Rust to Elixir. [1] It is Sunday and I have to force myself not to open Emacs today.

That's the best of both worlds: a reimplementation of an existing project. You have all the freedom of a greenfield project, and you don't suffer from the "blank page syndrome" or writer's block the author talks about. Port the tests over, then rewrite everything, this time with a better architecture. [2]

1: Since someone is bound to ask, I am incorporating a Rust standalone app into a larger Elixir monolith. Because while static typing is nice, turning a Rust app into a highly-concurrent and highly resilient with native OS primitive (threads & co.) or, yikes, async, is masochistic when I have the power of the BEAM at my disposal.

You must be young & not remember the huge mess that charging was in the early 2000s. Every single brand had a proprietary charging port/connector - same with their data connectors. These days it’s bliss in comparison. They more often than not were also hard wired into the electrical plug, making matters even worse (and power bricks weren’t solid state, they were cooper transformers, which were heavy!).
You should try MagSafe. I haven’t felt my phone feel hot once since I changed my charging from a pad to a MagSafe charger. They are also much more efficient, since not much heat is being generated.
You should probably stop saying it because it makes no sense

> Of course, that's because there are only a relative handful of people on it today.

This is the key point here. Every social media service and community is friendly when it's new, there aren't many people using it and (especially) if it's invite only and filled with people that are significantly more thoughtful than the norm.

It's like the internet in general before Eternal September, or every other major service before it truly took off.

The real question is whether that quality can be maintained with an audience of millions, to which my experience says "probably not".
Here is a quick summary:

They are calling fraud because OAI was mixing nonprofit and capped profit to avoid taxes and the likes. They also made claims about unfair representations coming from ChatGPT and the executive composition of OAI, which apparently looks like insider trading and information manipulation. They alleged that OAI participated in election interference during 2020. They also said OAI was recklessly making advances in disruptive tech faster than legislators can make laws for them.

Basically, a prime example of a vulture coming in to sue anything that looks like it can give them some money. This is part of the reason why every company need a team of lawyers to deal with this perversion of justice.

Questionable statistics aside, it's unbelievable to me that the US hasn't been able to greatly reduce phone and SMS scams.

Because it has 280 pages of newspaper articles and white papers about OpenAI, ChatGPT, and other startups attached to it as exhibits, many of which are only tangentially related to the case.
It's not "clearly unethical", there is much more nuance than a "black or white" morality. It's also paramount to proper preservation of works. We can't trust rightsholders to be the stewards of their own preservation, as we have historically seen them destroy works because they don't want to store the archive. Given that copyright's end game is the public domain, I don't believe a rightsholder should even have the right to destroy a work. They owe that work to the public in the long term. If you believe that is "entitlement", then you argue against the core reason for copyright's existence, according to the copyright law of the US (which has also permeated the rest of the world in effect).

Some pirates may just want free shit, yes. But some pirates, especially modern ones, really are working more on a preservationist angle and intending to ensure that works aren't lost or destroyed. Rightsholders aren't forced to ensure that the public actually has access to a work once copyright expires, so the public must ensure that for themselves.
Wow, that's the most useful ChatGPT summary I've ever come across.

I've never found it particularly useful for most articles which are easy enough to read/skim (the first and last 2 paragraphs will usually tell you what you need), but long complicated legal documents are a whole other matter. This is great.
Ask HN: Did anyone here manage to get approved for 8 GPUs on AWS?
Hi, I have about 10K$ in startup credits on AWS, I have 1 year left to burn through them

I've been trying to get 8 A100 GPUs to run some of the largest LLMs for a while now, but so far all my requests have been denied, I have a quotas of 2x16 vCPUS for P instances, so just enough for 1 or 2 GPUs(and I'm not even sure you can even get one A100 with that...)

Did anyone here manage to get a quota increase approved? (especially with startup credits)

How did you do it?

Thanks
There is a theory that the reason those glyphs (in most languages, whether characters or ideograms) tend to have a similar, conservative aspect ratio is that they use a part of the early visual system that was useful in finding/tracking footprints (evidence of prey or threats)

In the case of characters, especially hanzi/kanji, ones that are hard to recognize/distinguish either evolve (simplify and/or develop disambiguating features) or fall into disuse. Clearly “hard to recognize” is driven by physiological structures that are by definition “natural”

Been listening to these songs for quite a while now - amazing songwriting. A mysterious, tragic tale, too.

On Spotify there is an album called “Connie’s Piano Songs” that purport to be through-composed (as in, pen to paper notated music) art songs. I’ve unsuccessfully tried to find more info about them and there don’t seem to be any scores are available. I’d be interested if anyone has any more information about them or has the scores. Part of me wonders if they are actually songs about Connnie Converse and not composed by her…

Russia did not see any important integration with Europe countries even before 2014. Yes there were hydrocarbon pipelines but that's that. Amenities such as visa waiver travel, student exchange programmes, cultural exchange and economic integration were practically nonexistent.

It does sound strange if you claim to want to avoid a new war in Europe but systemically exclude the largest country in Europe from that equation. Meanwhile trying to integrate their direct neighbours into your sphere of influence.

I've found it to work well for smaller, contained problems or one off scripts where the alternative would have been to do it manually or not at all. Getting there 80% allows me to start them in the first place.

Another random example: Recently I needed a script to transfer some secrets from one k8s cluster to several others. It took about 3 minutes with GPT 4 and solved the problem within one iteration. There is probably a one liner in bash to do it but I don't know it of the top of my head;)

That behavior definitely applicable here, but 25% of the market doesn't sound too exclusive even if they managed to pick in each and every domain the top journals. I mean, the sector is definitely very peculiar with a lot of baggage. The publish-or-perish environment was not inflicted by publishers, its something that emerged in the science communities. The obsessive impact ranking, citations etc reflects ultimately the difficulty of judging academic worth (on which careers and funding rely) at such industrial scales.

But when you see fat margins (and if it bothers you, as it seems to be the case with those walkouts) always look for the reasons nobody can undercut them. Most of the time the "moat" (as they like to say here on HN) is some cozy arrangement.

> This is the first foray into threatening people with under grad and graduate degrees.

That's not true either. Journalism, for example, has been devastated by the internet. It and many of its related professions require degrees. A lot of commercial art has been severely impacted as well. There have been many bumps in publishing too, making those jobs more precarious.

> The very threat of this, realistic or not, is what all of the handwringing is about.

Sure. And I think what has changed here is not that it's coming for white-collar jobs. It's that groups who previously benefited from technological change or were at least insulated from it, now can see themselves as under threat as well. So although I expect the harms will still fall disproportionately on the less privileged groups, what has changed is that some of the previously privileged groups are now under threat.

Rhetoric that pollutes the whole argument. The whole of art is there for an augmentation inside the public. We do not need to ask Flaubert to be inspired by Flaubert, and change ourselves and our ways after the inspiration - that is a basis of the cultural game. Copyright infringement is a very different thing.

I haven't claimed anywhere that all the EU does is regulating USB-C, why do you think that? I gave several other examples of micromanagement.

> You are also free to believe that EU officials do things that no one cares or wants and keep getting elected.

The EU officials who create regulations are the Commissioners, who are not elected. That isn't an alternative fact, it's just a fact. I continue to be amazed at how EU supporters keep pretending this isn't the case. Can't tell if it's ignorance about their own political system or just too embarrassing to admit.
Unfortunately not very much engineering goes into software these days.

What you describe is a very common pitfall that is completely avoidable using well established frameworks.

In systems engineering one of the key principles is that you build a system to meet requirements. This means that prior to making architecture diagrams or picking your database, you instead meet with all of the stakeholders and enumerate a list of what is required of the system or service you are building.

Once you have requirements, you simply look at the normal trade offs (operational ease of use, cost, license model, performance, etc…) and make decisions accordingly.

There is still some room for decision making, but if you apply a tried and true framework it’s helps cut down on the decision making a lot.

Worth noting that Lightning is also limited to USB 2.0 speeds (480 mbps), as it does not have enough pins to do USB 3 while still being bidirectional.
> Somehow software people have forgotten that physical things last a long time, and people want them to keep working and stay the same as long as possible

Maybe a little. But I think a big part of it is businesses realizing they can make a lot more money, at least in the short term, if people have to replace their products more often.

The cycle of seven shapes. Sounds super fancy but those are all tiny. I literally learned that pattern for the major modes in all positions on the neck in a day and was fluent less than a week later. When you put those small pieces together you make one of the two or three patterns that I mentioned. for example take the three note groups tone tone (cross) tone tone (cross) semitone tone tone (cross) tone semitone if you want to play a two octave major scale starting on the first finger on either of the two lower strings. That pattern is just swapped around if you want to start on the second finger. So you just play tone (cross) semitone tone (cross) to play the first octave to the seventh degree and then either slide up a fret and do the first pattern I mentioned or continue across.

And if you play those patterns then all the modes of the major scale just kind of fall out of that.

Not boasting - it’s just not a complicated thing at all.
I don't know how many are genuine, but the examples I've seen of different responses to prompts with either Trump or Biden as the subject have been pretty wild.

I've personally seen a few blind spots / biases in non-political topics as well, but had previously written them off as merely incomplete training data. Lately, though, I've been pondering how many accidental biases have crept in and to what extent that will shape how people work when they're assuming they are getting an unbiased answer.
You can copy/paste part of the summary of the complaint. 4k tokens is a lot to work with.
Sure. And I think that's because previously many comfortable people thought that they meant the harms of tech would fall, as usual, on people they saw as lesser. They've realized now that this time what happened to others might happen to them.
Doesn't this require a huge amount of voice data before it would even sound remotely believable to maybe an elderly person with hearing/processing issues? I thought this was only possible for YouTubers,news presenters, etc as they have many hours of voice data to use.

First the bureaucrats would need to care. That’s a pretty big hump - people don’t like change. Instead of people going “yay, we’ll all finally be on the same connector” you’re going to have people going “no, I already have all of these cables and USB-C is good enough!”

You’ll also need the various players on the other side to invest in development for something new with absolutely no guarantee that the EU will approve it. Honestly, if they wanted to mandate this they should have at least just said it’s in effect for ___ number of years and no longer.
