It seems like you have a clear definition of the solution, but not a clear definition of the problem. You had an idea, and try to fit a problem around it. You're approaching things backwards.

Your questions are too vague to answer meaningfully, but I'll try.

Personally, I have pretty much stopped using planning tools. I keep a regular to-do list for immediate tasks that I committed to complete, and that's it. Everything beyond that is just a wishlist.

Making detailed plans with tools and everything makes you feel productive without bringing you any closer to your goal. Future you is the one who actually has to fit your tidy plan into his messy reality, and do all the actual work.

Instead, I value individuals over processes and tools, and responding to change over following a plan. Do these words sound familiar?
> ChatGPT takes that to an entirely new level.

ChatGPT is a mirror. GPT-4 more so than GPT-3.5, but in both cases: you get out what you put in. You may need to learn how to manage the conversation on a meta level (e.g. asking it to use a different style, as by default, it's overly polite and is padding its answers like it was writing a lifestyle magazine for an easily distracted audience), but if you want to go deep instead of wide, you can easily do that.

(At least as long as you avoid the topics where OpenAI lobotomized ChatGPT through RLHF and whatever other hacks they use to short-circuit the conversation. In those cases, I'm sure Postman would recognize the broader mechanism at play and its implications, from various socio-political transformations around the world in his youth and adult life.)
Can someone explain more?
LG Prada predates iPhone and the form factor we have in phones is almost an inevitable outcome. The iPhone was a great execution and ahead of it's time, if you think it is the reason we have smartphones then you couldn't be more wrong.
sure taken separately that looks more elegant. but, provided your whole program is complex enough, i think if you take a step back your language of choice is gonna look like a pigs sty compared to the same thing written in common lisp.

i think the amazing thing about common lisp as a high level language is that it can be a low language also. imo it is an unmatched balance of a high/low level language
This doesn't need to happen. Having such a function in KeePassXC is important so that there's a sufficient user base not attested by big groups.
VirtualLink isn't that exotic, just another USB-C Alt mode that has 4xDP lanes with USB3 signaling pushed over the USB2 pins. There's likely plenty of ICs on the market that could do it, just few products that implement the feature because there's zero demand.

Given someone gets the PSVR2 working on PC there would be incentive among enthusiasts to create hobbyist-grade hardware at least.
Do you have any prompt tips for this sort of task? I’ve tried it a bit ago and didn’t manage to get very good results even with a lot of iteration. Could have been the niche subject matter though
I don't think many actually use the STL besides app dev's. Most systems dev's are targeting WIN32, RTL, UEFI, POSIX, BOOST, UNREAL, or something else. Not only this, but STL also breaks alot of things by what it puts in, Kernel, Unreal, and results in alot of usecases to not use the STL.

The only time in my entire career i've ever used the STL was in college. Since most C++ jobs are not Appdevs. All those have moved to C#, Go, or some other higher level language. Or again, just rely on the built in suite like RTL, Posix, Unreal
There's also (probably) detailed logs from the collision avoidance sensors, as well as GPS. Even the relatively small Mini 3 Pro has six cameras and a downward-facing IR distance meter, the larger ones (Mavic 3) have even more cameras and ultrasonic short-distance sensors. At least from Reddit reports, the amount of data that these flight logs gather is more than enough for the customer support to determine a warranty case without sending the drone in (if that's even possible because the drone crashed into water and got lost).

On top of that come RTK and ADS-B receiver data, and the really large ones (Matrice, Agras) add more engines, payload status (weight, flow rate), multi-battery health, RF quality and other data channels.

To be honest, it's amazing just how many features modern drones carry while still allowing sometimes well over half an hour of flight duration.
I know some people living in villages in Eastern Poland who regularly dig up historical coins and such on their land. They promptly hide or destroy them due to fear/unwillingness to deal with authorities.

I used to be annoyed/bewildered at it, but ever since the time sitting on a bench in the park got criminalised, I get it. There is no common good in a low trust society.
If you were using webauthn as a second factor, I believe the passkey changes implemented by Apple and others means your device bound webauthn keys are now synchronized to their cloud services.

That hurts and my enterprise had to halt their rollout of webauthn for MFA while we figure it out.
Don't worry chat gpt is just showing us all who has antisocial personalities and lacks understanding or empathy for the human condition. Nothing you say matters to them. It's their way of trying to prove to themselves that only they matter and other human beings aren't worth their time.
Pocketverse: A WebGL-powered procedurally generated universe
> Because Keep was released FIVE years before Task.

Tasks in GMail (and IIRC also Calendar) existed long before Google Keep. You are talking about the standalone application of Googles task-system which came with version 3(?). If anything, Google Keep is the problem here. Why was it duplicating features which were already existing in the Google-verse? Instead of integrating with the existing systems and improving them.

There is nothing wrong with spreading out your interfaces and workflows, as long as they all work on the same data. No interface is perfect, so having specialized interfaces for specific jobs is beneficial. But Google is not doing this with Keep, instead maintains another parallel system again.
Its really only with modern cross-compiling tool chains that "high level" languages like C or Pascal are close to competitive with writing in assembler for old 8-bit systems. Part of this is the machine target is so constrained. The 6502 (motivating and original target of the TRSE compiler) is particularly difficult.

While the 6502 has a machine call stack, it is only 256 bytes and does not allow any stack-pointer-relative operations. This is unsuitable for local variable storage of "stack frames" for recursive function calls.

Also the 6502 is a pure 8 bit processor (all registers and operations are single byte) except for the program counter, which is 16 bits. There are no registers usable as pointers, and limited hardware support for "indirect" operations thru a memory-stored pointer.

Projects like TRSE are quite amazing for opening up a lot more possibilities for what can be done in a higher level language but with near-assembler-level performance.
I've been using it a lot to think through development builds. I'll tell it the architecture that i'm thinking, the tech stack, and go back and forth with it. It saves a lot of time and helps me think through my process. That's my main use case (with copilot to finish the deal). The token limits are a pain for full code generation.

I'm working on a site right now where I use the API to generate me full summaries of AI sites. Features, excerpts, descriptions. It works really nice. I find it works best when you split the prompts up.
I didn't bring it up. You brought it up when you talked about "taking away rights" from a corporation.
How do you write this and only have 4 pictures, 3 from the subject of the article?
Their graves?
Yeah I've tried all the web clients and this is the only one that seems to be somewhat working at all https://exo.nickhowell.com

I wonder if it's the API being completely overloaded or the clients being terrible.
Any geoengineering efforts we undertake will also be a blip on cosmic timescales. Particles we put into the stratosphere will decay and either escape to space or fall back to earth. Structures we put in orbit will succumb to drag and eventually burn up in the atmosphere. If our civilization collapses in the next 200 years, the most notable thing we will have left behind is earth's sixth mass extinction event (the one we call the Holocene extinction, but ofc that name will be long forgotten in a million years).

Reducing the impact of the extinction event we are causing doesn't seem like hubris to me.
Okay, originally I just had to read 1984, to comment on an hn thread, now I need a 4 year linguistics degree. Increasing appeals to authority, when the previous one fails you.

You seem to be arguing that descriptivism is just what linguistics "does", therefore it does not inherently contradict prescriptivism? Because they have two separate roles. And if descriptivists stayed in their lane, and allowed prescription where obviously necessary (like when teaching a language) then we wouldn't be having this argument in the first place.

But if descriptivists turn around and say "therefore thou shalt not prescribe"، then we do have a problem, and descriptivists are indeed naive, they are the real prescribers of an ill-conceived political program.
Except that describes a fantasy reality and not our reality where the user has no say and even if you are lucky enough to be able to run the software that you want it won't have access to the keys demanded by third parties like the media industry. The mere existence of "trusted comuting" is a threat to free computing.
Maybe the situation has changed recently, but as I understand there is no scholarly consensus on when plate tectonics started and it is the topic of active debate. For example Onset of Plate Tectonics (2011) https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.1208766 says:

> The further back we look into the geological past, the more obscured the view, masked by an increasingly fragmentary geological record. This has resulted in a controversy on whether plate tectonics operated the same way, or even at all, during early Earth history.
I can't see; could you explain pls.
This is the same for Huawei and their phones aren't even that cheap!
lololol. i think this opportunity gets bigger post $10m seed round. they'll likely double down and expand footprint vs the inverse.

For example a border officer could demand a bribe to let you into the country. In that case they are threatening not to let you in unless you pay them. But not letting you in is in fact illegal, since they have an obligation to their employer (the government) to let people in or not based on whatever criteria the government set, rather than their own interest.

So they are in fact threatening you with something illegal, unlike blackmail where they have the legal right to reveal embarrassing information about you.
At least to me it is. I don’t want to install Windows in a VM on my Mac to run one piece of software. Nothing else that I use regularly needs Windows, and I do not enjoy using Windows and do not want to use Windows.

But most of the world does of course run Windows. So I’m not in the main group of people this software was for. That’s fine.
> Because HN doesn't have opinions on things.

HN is actually one of the most homogeneous public communities I've seen.

And judging by how few downmodded posts are around, self censoring.
New cars, once part of the American Dream, now out of reach for many
Apparently the radeon RX6xxx series has them, and nvidia 2xxx cards with USB-C ports. Though yes, it seems unlikely there will be continued support.
Beautiful example of the limits of AI - it simply reiterates the comment in a seemingly informative way, but it doesn't actually understand it, so it really just states the same thing but more verbosely. Knowing nothing about Passkeys, it's also subtly wrong.

What exactly is your point?
Attestation certificates include detailed information about the device that signed them. Nothing is stopping services from limiting accepted devices to only those approved by the passkey gang (MSFT,AAPL,GOOGL).

Suddenly things that many so readily dismiss as being FUD such as retail Pixel devices' bootloader requiring an internet connection to unlock[1] become much more more relevant.

Cormorants as well. Very cool birds.

I assume Anhingas are the same, but cormorants are less buoyant than most waterfowl because they need to dive deep from the water's surface. When they're just floating, you don't see much of their back and they look like a tiny periscope sticking out of the water.
Makes me wonder how hard it would be to flash a different firmware.

For other people's benefit, from the FLIR website:

In general, thermal cameras operating at 60 fps and/or 30 fps (NTSC) or 50 / 25 fps (PAL) video rates are export-controlled by the U.S. government.

The FLIR OEM camera modules - including Tau2 640 (both 60 and 30 fps), Tau2 336 — are classified as dual-use items and require export licenses from the U.S. Department of Commerce.

The FLIR Vue and Vue Pro (640 and 336) are also dual-use.

Boson 640 (60/30 fps) and Boson 320, are controlled to the ITAR, and require export licenses from the U.S. Department of State prior to delivery outside of the U.S. or Canada.

The U.S. government allows thermal cameras with frame rates less that 9 fps to be exported without a license. This is why FLIR offers thermal cameras with "fast video" and "slow video" options.
Agreed. I'd also throw in that you should stick to one language for a while. It can get tempting to want to play with a lot of different things. That can hurt you. I'd stick to something like javascript/python and focus on fundamentals.
"that's what she said"...
Was good to avoid the fear of users so that they switched but then big tech don't have to really do it and follow their word once it becomes common.

Just look at the Google authenticator that is very simple but did not have the feature for years, until recently when they were afraid that bad communication about that will jeopardize their passkey initiative!
I don't remember, maybe check closed issues in their repository. But I think we all know why you're really saying this. To cast doubt on what I'm saying. That's okay, gotta get that $$$ or something.
The irony is my newer iPhone has at least half of the same issues:

Keyboard doesn’t open randomly, sometimes browsers lock/hangs (both Safari & Brave), apps will crash for seemingly no reason, random OS crashes (rare but at least monthly), phone will think its being held to ear even on a level surface mid-call.

Linux phones are definitely still a ways away, but its funny how similar the problems are, they’re just less severe.
Yes. Unfortunately there exists no democracy on this planet.
In case anyone is interested in writing eBPF programs in Rust
https://github.com/vishpat/oxidize-ebpf
Sure that's how people are forced to use TCP, but for performance reasons that's not how they want to use it.

IMO something like SCTP would have been better. You generally want multiple independent streams (to avoid head of line blocking), message and stream transmission, and optional reliability on a per-stream/message basis.

This sort of thing is very very common in real time games (e.g. enet). Actually enet is built on UDP, but if you compile it to WASM then the Emscripten UDP implementation uses the WebRTC data channel which uses SCTP!
I'm curious as to why you think this particular question is relevant to this particular discussion. I hope there is more to it than the presence of 'victimless' in the title.
The "paradox" stems from the fact that the victim is really a victim of the gossip. But gossiping is actually legal. So they are not really a victim of that. So what are they a victim of? From the offer to not gossip? But that offer is actually beneficial to them: it provides a way to prevent the gossip. So it's hard to say they are a victim of that. etc.

I can't say I have thought a lot about this but I wouldn't dismiss the author's point that quickly.
maybe it's not written by a 'person' as this seems to be a common experience when dealing with ML generated texts.
I love the name. What’s wrong with it?
Side note: I'm a bit envious at just how relaxed drone flight rules are in non-European countries. No way the flight in the last screenshot of the page was done under VLOS conditions.
There is also https://www.phantomhelp.com/logviewer/upload/ and https://airdata.com/ - that's just links, not a recommendation.
> Americans are very uncritically accepting of their system of government in general. It gets taught as this "wow, our system of checks and balances, isn't it amazing!?" and by and large is never criticized or substantially analyzed as to whether it's a system that produces good outcomes.

Is this really different anywhere else? Pretty much all school I have been trhough (none of it in the US) has been 90% about deferring to authority if you really think about it.
If you reread this comment thread under the guise of "hm how is the Julia community?". I think you'd find it very enlightening. Maybe even find things you could improve. If only that was the goal.
Ask HN: Will Web3 ever become mainstream?
Yeah, GPU manufacturers seem to have given up on supporting VR headsets.
> And, there is a good reason people shy away from PHP

I agree, I also strongly dislike Angular and MySQL in addition to PHP. But I also think a much better indicator for success is discipline. Angular, PHP and MySQL, to their credit, aren’t crazy Turing tarpits, you can write good, successful software with them.

I’ve never seen a dysfunctional project where any of the inherent flaws of those technologies even registered on the same scale as the sheer malpractice of everyone working on the product. And this is also the problem with trendy and flashy stacks, developers not learning the stacks properly and using them as intended. Probably due to commercial pressure to push prototypes to production instead of rebuilding properly after learning the stack. I think that should be the takeaway from the original comment, that CTOs need to either budget for building it twice, or stick to a stack everyone knows inside and out.
Yes, we do it as well - we have local monolith workspace package that combines all services and simulators in single node process. We don't use it on any environments, just for local development and ci. It works very well (very fast, very little resources and with simulators for external services you can work even on a plane without internet if you want and system behaves very much like real one in production).

And yes, non-microservices doesn't imply monolith. We have many services. But they're not microservices because they don't have their own data store and distinct versioning/deployment - they're part of monorepo.

As per the current circumstances, no! If the circumstances change in the future, maybe.
With the sad state of PGP on Android, I hope someone picks up development on a viable alternative or ressurrects OpenKeychain. Currently, I cannot use my PGP keys because they're too new on Android.
Ah yes, of course. Too late for me to correct now.
The task of the Scrum Master is to make themselves redundant. They just make sure the team follows the structure they agreed on + runs interference for external issues.

After the team is mature enough, one of them can take the SM duties in addition to other tasks because the actual process runs without extra management.
Top Cat Names by State
That and the fact that the PSVR2 uses camera-based SLAM tracking, similar to the Oculus Quest, and reimplementing that from scratch is non-trivial to say the least.
I should clarify: while it's automated from the Motorola side, it's still a bunch of manual steps for the device owner. You have to create an account and have a desktop PC involved, and if I remember right Motorola, gives you a bunch of nonsense about avoiding the warranty. It's strictly worse than Google's process.

I think OnePlus is the only one that might be better than Google. But they've been disappointing me in other aspects recently.
Brownian motion is for brown-nosers
Don't confuse basic manners with homogeneity. Just because the rest of the Internet is a dumpster fire, doesn't mean people posting here have limited range of views.
Not just verbosely, but with the implied contempt!
I'd pay good money for an AdBlock + UI cleaner as a Chrome extension. But I'm pretty sure it'd get nuked very quickly.
I hear that the big tech vendors (Apple at least) aren't going to do attestable keys.

Pen Programming Language
Is it a GPT?
fwiw ... you might be "successful" doing what you're proposing (if you choose a tiny feature set, and discard everything else everyone asks you for)

...but the reason "out-of-the-box solutions" exist is because other folks have already spent the millions of developer hours, user feedback, etc to get it working :)

Several years ago I worked for a company (filled with seasoned, smart, great devs) that tried to in-house their own reporting tool

They quit and migrated to Crystal Reports because integrating an existing tool was worlds cheaper/faster than trying to do it all themselves

Later they migrated to BIRT because of CR limitations

And did another migration a couple years after that (I forget now to what tool)

The only drawback from a end-user perspective of those migrations were that reports couldn't be automigrated between reporting platforms
I think that you may even be legally bound to reveal certain true information that you've come across, regardless of whether that would be humiliating for someone (say, information about a corrupt politician taking bribes).
There's nothing to support, the VirtualLink consortium was dissolved and it's now a zombie standard with nobody at the wheel. The VR headset makers that originally backed it aren't supporting it anymore either, Valve announced and then cancelled a VirtualLink cable for the Index, and HTC/Oculus/Microsoft never made it as far as announcing any products.
This is more a large human organisations thing.

The author makes it clickbaitier by not counting meetings and pointless work as "work".

Once you add those back in then it's basically repeating Dilbert from decades ago.

Agile itself was introduced because large million dollar projects were stalling out and getting cancelled before deploying (or even writing) a single line of code.
Your comment implies that we’re in some age of AGI, but we’re not there yet. Some argue that we’re not even close, but who knows, that’s all speculation.

> it simply LEARNS from it as a human coder would learn from it.

The LLM doesn’t learn, the authors of the LLM are encoding copyright protected content into a model using gradient decent and other techniques.

Now as far as I understand the law, that’s OK. The problems arise when distribution of the model comes into play.

I’m curious, are you a programmer yourself? Don’t take this the wrong way, but I want to understand the background of people who coming to the kind of conclusion you seemed to arrive at about how LLMs work.
Depends what you mean by mainstream, I guess. The sheer volume of scams, ponzis and bad actors sets it back every time it gains popularity.
If you actually care about FLOSS on your phone, you might be interested in trying a GNU/Linux phone (Librem 5 or Pinephone). Those have no restrictions on mounting or alternative operating systems.
