I'm not going to miss it. AM radio was essential to the rise of the right wing media in the US, and essential in turning politics into the festering cancer that it currently is.

I used to work for the division of GM that made radios, teaching mechanics how to diagnose & repair electrical (and radio) problems. Later, I worked at a radio shop, repairing and installing radios. If your car radio broke while under warranty in South Florida, you (or your radio) were sent to our repair facility. There were 2 main groups of AM radio listeners: sports fans who listened to live sports and obnoxious "dittoheads".
Challenging the premise of the article based on reading only title while not really understanding the language the title is written on is not actually something praise worthy. If he is a.) not reading article and b.) not understanding normal and common English idiom, then pointing out he should stay away from the discussion is valid.

And that is assuming it is genuine misunderstanding and not, like, typical nerdy "I refuse to actual engage with those idiots from other fields, better just make up something".
A CS degree is meant to teach computer science, not just programming. Algorithms and data structures are the most fundamental concepts in computer science.
Yeah, because if you had the name you'd have no further questions.

There's just no way to condense enough important information into the headline, and the chemical name would mean nothing for 99% of people.

I don't know what this means about my personal (in-)ability but I've been developing for years (15+) and I feel like all of the other developers I have to deal with are constantly turning to weird, convoluted solutions to problems. I have also never been able to get past the first step in the google interview process so I have this deep, frustrated insecurity. And people constantly like to point out how simple my stuff is in a tone that suggests that is a bad thing.

My hatred of the complex solutions is so deep that I just suffer through all of the commentary silently.
Please congress, stop all those open source innovators that use things like LoRA to cheaply create LLMs that match AIs in our multi billion $ business model!
From an attacker perspective:

If I can get access to these tracking systems full of recorded conversations and video, can I use this information to advance my attack?

Maybe I can even set queries on the collected data, like "mark all conversations about domain admins" or "mark all videos containing a clear view of somebody typing in a password on a terminal".

This also opens up a new trove of espionage. Imagine getting inside info on big investement.
Although I think that AI could be quite dangerous, I'm skeptical that "licensing" will do anything more than guarantee the existing big players (<cough>OpenAI</cough>) an entrenchment.

The baddies have never let licenses ("Badges? We doan' need no steenkin' badges!") stop them.
> It seems like there's a lot of people in the Java community who still think OO is a great idea

If you're coding in Java, you've better think OO is a great idea. It's an object oriented language. And despite having loosely bolted on FP paradigms, that's not really going to change.

Although I feel most of the criticism against OO is actually more like a critique of the FactoryBuilderFactoryImpl-style application of design patterns, which is something else and really unfashionable today in Java.
Surprisingly, no. All a "wallet" has to do is compute a signature using a private key. Then the resulting transaction has to be sent to a "mining" node (or the "mempool" of a group of nodes) and wait until one of them incorporates it into a transaction, computes fourty trillion hashes and then throws all but one of them away, and broadcasts the resulting signed block to the network.

Because there is no confirmation on sending bitcoin "into" a wallet, no action is required at all to receive and store it. It's only cashing out where it gets difficult. It also makes it possible to send to inaccessible or nonexistant wallets.

I’ve been using 5 minute journal for about 8? years.

I think the gratitude journaling has helped a lot. I started while working as a VC and basically needing to send rejections to about 800 companies a year. I noticed that I started to look for errors automatically, including when I got home from work. Gratitude in the morning and things that went well before bed seems to have helped my brain optimize for looking for good, instead of finding mistakes.

I recently started using penzu to actually journal. I mostly use it when I’m upset. It does help me calm down and also organize my thoughts before an argument (usually with my wife).

The article, in its entirety, only mentions an open source model one time.

That one time only states they are unlikely to release an open source model.

I should definitely not such a little thing annoy me at all but this is just dumb. We’ve got enough spam so we really need to make more?

> May 15 (Reuters) - OpenAI is preparing to release a new open-source language model to the public, The Information reported on Monday, citing a person with knowledge of the plan.

OpenAI's ChatGPT, known for producing prose or poetry on command, has gained widespread attention in Silicon Valley as investors see generative AI as the next big growth area for tech companies.

In January, Microsoft Corp (MSFT.O) announced a multi-billion dollar investment in OpenAI, deepening its ties with the startup and setting the stage for more competition with rival Alphabet Inc's (GOOGL.O) Google.

Meta Platforms Inc (META.O) is now rushing to join competitors Microsoft and Google in releasing generative AI products capable of creating human-like writing, art and other content.

OpenAI is unlikely to release a model that is competitive with GPT, the report said.

The company did not immediately respond to Reuters' request for a comment.

I’ve always been curious what the true boundaries of Citrix are when WFH. Can an employer see what other apps are doing outside the Citrix view if running on one’s own hardware? Could they monitor web browser usage?
In the US currently industrial and smaller scale farms use heavy amounts of effectively slave labor / indentured servants with fake/stolen papers, bussed to unknown remote locations, company housing and company towns with local sheriff in kahoots with the owners, routine ICE raids to force compliance and break up organizing. We’re quite far from kindness to labor. Many modern liberal countries like SKorea, Italy have similar. Our most democratic nation states run on slave labor.
It’s not only about old CPUs. Intel Atom still doesn’t support AVX. Atoms are quite common on industrial controllers. For example, Tensorflow crashes with an obscure error on Atom CPUs. If you don’t support AVX at least output an error message.
Free market is the reason you need the subsidies, otherwise import tariffs.

European production costs around labour, regulations etc would be drastically undercut by foreign low cost markets and you would lose food sovereignty due to foreign imports.

Of course subsidies do introduce distortion but they are often simpler globally than tic for tat tariffs.
All the other native species (insects, birds, etc.), which are dependent upon the native plants for food & shelter, also tend to die off.

Overall, it's about as good as a (Star Trek reference) Cardassian occupation. And invasive species are not intelligent, to set up a decent "New Order" in any sort of reasonable or tolerable time frame.

You might be missing the point the parent is making. The point is not to address the problem, but to appease the regulator by having a tool that makes it reasonable to argue that you are compliant with regulations. FWIW, SEC did issue some fines, one could argue it is a reaction to it to some extent.
You don't. You can specify this in a single line.

Unless the question was, why do I have to mark targets as PHONY more generally.

In which case the answer is, you don't. You only do this when you want the recipe to always run when invoked, as opposed to the standard mode where invocation is conditional on the file being out-of-date.
I read science.org, I’m pretty average, and I don’t know what it is.
Maybe this is the way forward: build a Rust SDK which does all the high-performance heavy lifting. On top of it you create bindings (using uniffi) to your favourite front-end language. And you create a frontend focusing just on the front-end stuff.

This was presented at FOSDEM 2023 by Matthew Hodgson on building Matrix 2.0. 15 minutes into the video Matthew explains the redesign of the Matrix clients for mobile. His conclusion: maybe this is ultimate stack to build mobile applications.

Oh yeah, definitely. We had strict regulations about what we could talk about, where we could talk about it and how we were supposed to. There was always the looming threat of FCA regulation. But tracking and other privacy-breaching forms of surveillance and tracking were definitely not bothered with - in fact, a number of firms would have rather not tracked employee work hours because of all the conversation around junior level fatigue at the time. Most of the tight-lipped tracking of email and other communication came from compliance largely because of regulations against insider trading and the like.

Edit:- we all had personal phones that we could use out of work, which compliance did not track. But it was strictly enforced to not communicate to any business connection using that. They would just fire us if we were caught and shun liability that way.
> Here in Northern Europe 100% of manure from housed animals is used,

That's the wrong statistics to look it - 100% of waste coffee is used. They already have it, good management will figure out a way to use it.

But you cannot make an argument that we have to keep drinking coffee because fertiliser industry will collapse without waste coffee.

There are thousands of studies about impacts of intensive animal faming on landscape, economy, health and society in general, they are all negative. This was settled like 40 years ago.
> Why to build big and costly tech around simple things that sane humans are doing all the time subconsciously within seconds?

Cynical take: because if it works, then they'll be able to fire all the low-to-mid-level managers, and replace them with WADU and ChatGPT.
it hasn't. but i think that has to do with how little i tend to read em. the couple times i have read some journals it has provided some useful insight. but that's it.

When our company hired HR, a lot improved. They were not my friends, but they did a much better administrative job then the chaos previously.
On the one hand sure.

But if we're going to critique Java honestly, can't we stick to the language the way it looks today and not the way it looked nearly ten years ago?

Modern Java is quite pleasant to work with. One by one the papercuts and footguns have been fixed.
Well one problem is that "Some of the most populated zones of" everywhere are superfund sites. Another, I learned long ago in the real estate business, is that superfund sites are just the sites they've taken the trouble to bother "cleaning up". As the article alludes to, it's not the documented TCE sites we need to worry about, it's the undocumented TCE sites that will likely get the average person. This same rule applies to real estate development.

One of the dirty secrets of development is that we really have just poisoned a lot of our environment. Now you can work around that in real estate dev because there are creative ways to interpret disclosure regulations. But Mother Nature doesn't care about such tricks. She has a set of, (in this case chemical), rules and if they're broken, she'll happily punish you without a second thought.

I'm not sure how we solve the issue of toxins in our environment? It gets complex not only because of the competing interests, but also because research like this will continue to come out, and something we didn't think was a problem, will turn out to have been a problem. So you're in a situation where you know a lot. You even learn more everyday. But you don't know what you don't know.
> Should have been the first thing they mention, though, to avoid looking sensationalist.

There isn't a whole lot they can do if you don't actually read the article. I always try to read the article before I pass judgement on whether it's sensationalized or not.
> And I ain't your son. Jackass.

Well that got nasty pretty quickly! Especially for fully-unruffled jimmies and wholly raveled world view hahaha

It's a term of endearment, son! I'm older than you. 40.

But of course your jimmies will remain unruffled and your worldview unmoved, son, if you work so hard to protect it from new info as you are doing!

About everything else--nope, it's your hubris to pretend blindness to 1000s of observations. Hahahaha!

> ... and as expected you have nothing.

The nothing is your doing, as you ignore everything, right? I have everything, but if you won't see it...you cannot blame me for your own failure to see: that's not my problem it's yours.

Pretending otherwise is not only jackass, it's abusive when you then feign superiority and make the topic a pretext to take out your pent up rage on others who don't deserve it at all.

Which is the whole issue: your failure of sight and interpretation: you hallucinate son as something bad, you hallucinate 1000s of observations as being invisible.

At least if you're going to do that, don't take it too far, and pretend those people who differ from you are idiots. That's abusive. Isn't it more stupid to close your eyes and pretend you're in touch with the truth, than open them and talk about what you see?

But this is not your failure, unique to you. It's a whole class of people scared of the stigma and unknown--and some like you get abusive and want to create that stigma for others--you're a member of that wilfully ignorant, but sadly abusive, class. I don't know why you act so proud of that?

You'll be doing some learnin' son, today, by jimminy!

> Your premise ... tech civ on it.

Blah. Science's frontier is ignorance. That's how it should be!

> and all people like yourself have is faith, and faith isn't science.

Again you're hallucinating: mis-seeing and mis-saying my knowledge of evidence as faith! My son, you have zero idea what I have, about anything. But in this topic, I can tell you, what I do have is curiosity! :) ;p xx ;p

Closing your eyes and blaming the people who dare to look, hahaha-- and you claim familiarity with science.

> find it hilarious

It's funny because you don't sound hilarious. You sound desperate to find the weakest version of this topic and: pretend you're triumphing; pretend others are idiots; preserve your worldview; which one of those is it? Or all of them? :P ;) xx ;p

Have you watched that video yet? Even at 4x speed you're not going to get through the 60minutes plus in the 10 minutes it took you to beat out that evil reply! :P ;) xx hahaha

I hope you can be better than your username next time, sincerely son, that's why I have spent this time to educate you by this careful and thought out reply. I only seek the cessation of your abusive ignorance! :P ;) xx;p
Yes, I don't think consciousness can exist without feedback and delay. You can still experience a motionless room, but that's because the previous "frames" are still bouncing around in your brain. If you remove the historical replay (delayed feedback), it's something else.
To add on to this: see if you can offer to walk someones dog sometime. I swear it's like walking around with a big "talk to me!" banner.
The make manual was one of the more useful and enjoyable technical reads I've done in a while (really!).

I suspect that people going "bleh make" below have simply not read the manual.

make is incredible and super-useful. much of what is used instead of make is simply reinventing the wheel. (badly).

Is that the only data sets they looked at? Comparing only two locations means that there could be any number of site differences that account for the difference in the rate of Parkinson’s disease, other than the studied chemical.
I tried that app expecting responsive app, but the viewport lags significantly, and when rendering, the whole UI lags.
I have a keycard for work, so that means I'm tracked. Every time I go through the campus gate. Every building I enter. Cafeteria scans. Active Directory signons. Computer unlocks/wakes. Someone, or something, is crunching those numbers. Just waiting to flag a discrepancy in my timecard, a missing entry/exit...

Part of it is the under the guise of safety, they want to know where people are in case of an emergency, but the information will be used for whatever they deem necessary. In bad economic times, that data has been used to find people in violation of policies in order to let them go.

Ironically, I bet the physical sign-in books get archived and never processed anywhere.
Show HN: Dyrector.io: API and UI for Kubernetes and Docker Deployments
Hi HN! dyrector.io is an open-source container management platform with config & release management capabilities to your cloud, on-prem or hybrid infrastructure. You install the platform's agent to your infrastructure, add the registry you wanna deploy images from, and deploy them.

We made the platform to allow people who don't know anything about containers to set them up in dozens or hundreds of deployment targets. We thought it would be an interesting use case to engineers, too, who are uninterested or don't have the time to manage deployments and container maintenance in terminals.

Hope you find the platform useful and let us know if you have any feedback!

Predicting the future is filled with people looking like arses due to their predictions. But there's a few things that have been generally true when there's been reasonably disruptive technologies.

First, a bunch of job types will disappear or diminish substantially. If a company relies on making money from those job types, and doesn't pivot sufficiently quickly, then they'll likely go under.

But it doesn't follow that that will imply fewer jobs or fewer companies in general. It doesn't even imply fewer in the disrupted industry. It does, usually, mean that there'll be different demands for different skills and that will, likely, make space for different opportunities.

Of course, this time it could be different from all the others. But I can't say I see any evidence of that. I could end up looking like an arse of course.
If I already know TCE is dangerous and need to be avoided I might not need to read the article or I could if I need further information.

But if I need to click to get the basic information it's clickbait.
>"But in the 20th century, TCE was used for many purposes, including making decaffeinated coffee" ...

This is exactly the reason I never touched decaf coffee until I found Swiss water process (SWP) decaf. It never made sense to me to use hydrocarbon solvents in a food application
I'm squarely in the "stochastic parrot" camp (I know it's not a simple markov model, but still, ChatGPT doesn't think), and it's clearly possible to interpret this as a grifting, but your argumentation is too simple.

You're leaving out the essentials. These models do more than fitting the data given. They can output it in a variety of ways, and through their approximation, can synthesize data as well. They can output things that weren't in the original data, tailored to a specific request in the tiniest of fractions of the time it would take a normal person to look up and understand that information.

Your argument is almost like saying "give me your RSA keys, because it's just two prime numbers, and I know how to list them."
Agreed. It's also evident in the types of propaganda that appear, at least on my FYP. I guess they are running out of fresh spins on the old psyops wheel of manipulation.
People constantly overestimate the benefits and underestimate the harms on projects like this. Where I live we made it a point to dam up a lot of rivers to get hydroelectric power, but the dams prevented fish in the area from returning home to spawn, weakening our fisheries. And in the end the dams don’t produce that much power.
Why is it so hard to hear this perspective? Like, genuinely curious. This is the first I hear of someone cogently putting this thought out there, but it seems rather painfully obvious -- even if perhaps incorrect, but certainly a perspective that is very easy to comprehend and one that merits a lot of discussion. Why is it almost nonexistent? I remember even in the hay day of crypto fever you'd still have A LOT of folks to provide counterarguments/differing perspectives, but with AI these seem to be rather extremely muted.
Where in the world is this magically efficient market based economy that you speak of? I’ve read of this beast in econ books, but I have never seen it in the wild.
In the ideal world police wouldn't even be needed.

In the real world, the actual outcome is they'll only do anything if they're 100% certain it can't blowback on them.
Had me in tears lol
100% this, I don't get how even on this website people are so clueless.

Give them a semi human sounding puppet and they think skynet is coming tomorrow.

If we learned anything from the past few months is how gullible people are, wishful thinking is a hell of a drug
> Invasive plants are still invasive.

Name a plant that wasn’t at some point “invasive”. You can’t. We call plants invasive when we see their spread, and native otherwise. But whether a human observed a particular organism spreading matters precisely not at all.
