Ask HN: Do banks/startups use NACHA to transfer money?
I work at this company that uses NACHA - "Nacha governs the ACH Network, the payment system that drives Direct Deposits and Direct Payments with the capability to reach all U.S. bank and credit union accounts".

So to use NACHA, you need to process transactions in to a text file in the NACHA format. Do you know any software that helps with this?
It’s not trivial at all. Do you work in the space at all?
It's very clear that a strong AI/AGI would vastly surpass all humans combined. We've already seen shades of this with Chess AIs(all humans combined still can't beat a 3000 elo chess engine e.g.), hell even Kasparov vs the world showed showed us that the rest of the world combined can't even match a single high end human.

>I think going forward we're going to need much more clarity about what "superintelligence" really means.

This was already well defined by Bostrom in 1997: "An intellect that is much smarter than the best human brains in practically every field, including scientific creativity, general wisdom and social skills"

>Currently it seems like AI is essentially mimicking collective human intelligence, which means it is probably constrained at that level, as that level is the source.

There are no indications at all that it is constrained to that level.
Sorry I use the default launcher. I don’t see ads but that’s probably because I have pihole installed on the network.
That is irrelevant?
Haven't you heard? The credit belongs to the who is actually in the arena. And other such corporate platitudes.
Ngl, article made my day. Hilarious and adorable.
I did not edit my comment. I appended to it, to draw attention to some very important verbiage that you apparently could not digest
Looks fantastic! A question re. benchmarks: the "realtime multiple" means "how many times faster the model is processing the audio compared to real time" here? (I.e. the opposite of "real-time factor" sometimes used in speech recognition contexts?)

Also bigger beam sizes give better quality I guess?

Tnx!
It's a great use case for economics textbooks describing human-market behavior with modern technologies to help add fuel to the fire. It will replace tulip mania for a more recent experience. However the cost of that use-case was way to expensive for its net benefit.
My parents just sold their fairly nice large house for something like $170k. Of course it's not in a cool city. Living in a high cost of living area with expensive houses is voluntary consumption. If that's what you voluntarily want to spend your money on then fine, but you get just as much sympathy as the people complaining about how expensive brand new BMWs are.
> You can argue that very large cars have no place in a city, but thats a nuanced discussion, not doing away with all cars altogether.

i am telling you that owning a car is not a sustainable option for all of humanity.

you are arguing for "c'mon, just a little bit longer"
But the person being interviewed isn't actually "in tech". She graduated with a degree in strategic communication. She just limited her search initially to tech companies which is odd. Clickbait article makes it sound like actual tech graduates are going to Wall Street which I'd be more interested in knowing about.
Lord gawd almighty.

Let me tell you a story. If you go off road just about anywhere in Mexico that's dry enough and interesting enough, and it's possible to go slow enough to have enough clearance, you will find cheap 2WD rear drive cars that are already there. I have seen some amazing accomplishments from these vehicles that almost no US driver would dream of taking off road. Still, I wouldn't trade my 23 yo lifted 4wd truck for them at all. Over time, I'm going to come out ahead, there's simple no dispute.

I don't doubt that you could caramelize onions on the shittiest stoves possible, probably you could do it, with enough patience and care, with a magnifying glass on a hot summer day. But the OP was emphasizing that it's really no big deal, you don't even have to pay attention. I at least have great equipment, but I've stayed in dozens of AirBnBs that didn't have great equipment, same with friends and family. Got to pay attention then.

The idea that there is no difference is completely ridiculous.
Sure, but we need to keep in mind that when hearing hooves we should think horses not zebras.
Here's a repo with all "built-in" scripts for MIDI controllers decompiled.
https://github.com/gluon/AbletonLive10.1_MIDIRemoteScripts/

Have a look at pushbase and Push2 to look at Push source code.

A starter kit I use when bootstrapping projects:
https://github.com/R9295/ableton-live-control-surface-starte...

To the best of my knowledge, this is as far as it goes. The blogs and articles I found are mostly out of date as Ableton has two versions of it's API and blogs mostly use v1. I wouldn't work on anything serious using v1 of the API

Many controllers, including Push use v2 as it's allegedly simpler and more featured. I talked to a person working at Native Instruments and they also told me that their experience with the API was a nightmare.
Really? Our induction stove very clearly has two concentric circles of different radii that get hot, and nothing else. If you use cast iron and vary the power slowly you won't notice, but it's very obvious with thinner pots and when you control heat quickly (which is a delight to be able to do in the first place -- yay induction.)
I don’t think it’s a compromise of your moral beliefs to play a fun multiplayer game

Thank you for the comment! I am aware of this issue, and am working to address in v1.1.0. The context you provide here is very helpful for me. I've opened an issue on github for this: https://github.com/ChrisCavs/aimless.js/issues/2
I've heard a lot of complaints from a lot of different people working in lab science (in my case, my interest was in bio & chem) and none of them were about "tightly walled journals" (working academic researchers generally have institutional access, and when the logins are annoying to manage they just sci-hub like everyone else) or IRBs.

Rather, it was very basic stuff, like being told to come in at 5:30AM to feed a cell line only to have the PI show up at 2PM, throw the experiment in the garbage, threaten the student's livelihood, and then demand they stay until 11:30PM redoing the experiment. Over and over again, at random intervals.

I asked around about this stuff because a family member now works in the field and had some startling experiences, only to find that this is apparently almost universal, and that what I'm describing is on the lighter end of it. There are stories about labs at elite universities where the grad students have set up secluded spaces to go hide from their PIs and cry. It's everything you've heard about working as a developer at a video game company, dialed up to 11.
It's a reasonable expectation that any and all institutions handling your money might be gangs of thieves run by charlatans. This is why any deviations from regulation should be viewed with extreme suspicion, since that's the only thing that mostly succeeds keeping these thieves and charlatans in check and protecting customers.

Silicon Valley Bank is a great positive example, where the depositors were protected even despite the fact that the thieves and charlatans wanted to take on unacceptable risk by successfully managing in 2018 to lobby exemptions to the Dodd-Frank regulations that would have prevented the thieves and charlatans from doing so. So any financial institution that tries to circumvent even slight parts of regulations should be treated with extreme suspicion (as thieves and charlatans who want to take your money), and any financial process which tries to stay outside regulations as such (e.g. Monero) needs no suspicion at all, as this means that they're explicitly publicly acknowledging that yes, our gang of thieves and charlatans want to re-enable the ways of taking your money which were limited for the other gangs of thieves and charlatans.
You mean the clown institute that pretends Taiwan isn't a country because the big bully would get mad? Pretty sure they don't actually have a say on whether countries exist.
That's certainly true about some markets. Not sure how much that can be generalized.
Google has tons of legal resources for their current business. But that doesn’t mean they can spin up the legal docs and relationships needed to run an Uber-like business at the drop of a hat. The type of risk that Google’s lawyers are used to mitigating are simply not the same, and their lawyers are for the most part not the type of lawyers that you’d want to set up a transportation company with international operations. There are some relevant lawyers there, but the vast majority are specialized in software/cloud, not wheels-on-the-ground.

Of course, it would be easier to put together the necessary legal structure now that Uber and Lyft have already both done so. It’s easier to be a follower than a leader. But it would still be much harder for Google than building a mobile app like Uber, which would be right up Google’s alley.
Seconded. My daughter plays piano, and we have one of these. The YDP line of pianos from Yamaha are very good value, obviously not the same as a grand piano but very very good for a digital piano, and has midi out.
Not enough profit is the main reason to shut down a business, unless you have a good and realistic plan on how to reverse that. All that effort and all that risk can be put into more lucrative ventures.
> Nvidia has a "superchip" coming out this they are advertising as 10 times faster than the previous generation (I assume H100 or something).

Just a nitpick on this point, can you elaborate?

Are you talking about Grace? (Which is a Hopper H100 with an ARM CPU glued to it)
It'd be more interesting if you and someone else enter a Twitter Race to a goal of 100 followers, but you currently have about 100k followers.

> I did the smart thing and quit. When you select for people who don't do the smart thing and want to be exploited in exchange for prestige they get exploited.

I've also been told this is a prime driver for gender disparity in STEM academia: the women with the talent to succeed in a Ph. D. instead go earn their MD.
Yep, no.
I think the last point is really important... how many people really want to work at a tech company? There are many other jobs that frankly provide significantly more meaning and personal gratification to the person doing them. Doctor? Teacher? Nurse? Public defender? Chef? The list goes on. I hope the tech bubble deflates permanently and allows salaries across professions to normalize so that there is more balance in society.
Imo its this type of self replicating AI that is likely to cause the first global AI catastrophe. A worm-like AI, even if not close to human level intelligence, could if autonomous and sufficiently good enough at hacking, infiltrate a huge amount of vulnerable devices, and paralyze all of our computer infrastructure in the process. The fallout could be massive, especially if's disruptive enough to take out our power infrastructure by say overburdening our power control systems.

Superintelligence is not necessary for rogue AIs to cause big trouble
Avatar has done well despite its very tiring messaging. It feels like other Disney ventures are simply drowning in incompetence and irrelevance.

Maybe you can imagine it like an analogy. Imagine you saw a very big thing. Now later you see that the thing is still big, but it's a little bit less big. Someone might even say that it has become smaller. But this is a paradox because even though it is big how can you say that it is smaller, when the word 'smaller' itself contains the word 'small' which is the opposite of 'big'?
wow, sounds like they sold off Giphy for pennies on the dollar, potentially at a loss?
Rogue AI doesn't worry me, because the good guys will have non-rogue AI that seeks out and destroys rogue AI.

There are far more good guys in the world than bad guys. Look at email for an example. 99% of people use it for it's intended purpose, but maybe 1% of people want to use it for spam and other nefarious ends. The good guys have created a system that is constantly besting the bad actors.

Yes, the effort is asymmetrical, but the good guys outnumber the bad guys by so much that it isn't an issue.
in the typical scenario taxi/ride-share drivers are only driving paid miles for a small fraction of the time they are on the clock.

with autonomous/remote vehicles you have a fleet of driver-less vehicles that are capable of fully-autonomous operation in some circumstances but are remotely monitored/controlled for situations they can't handle.

this means that you can have a remote driver who is continually switching between driving different vehicles and only driving in the situations where actually needed and profitable.

with driver based transportation when you get into low utilization hours then drivers and cars have to be pulled of the street, the drivers who are working spend more time sitting unprofitably, and they have to driver further to pick up rides.

in a remote scenario you can keep all of your driver-less cars on the street (parked) and your remote driving staff takes control of the car closest to each ride request to pick up and deliver that ride so they spend much more time driving with much less mileage waste.
Come now. Clickbait would be “You will never believe what the Buddha did when…”

This is just a title. “Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy” turned out to just be a book about a rather boring Englishman and his friend, not actually a pan galactic travel guide. Titles are allowed to be compelling as long as they aren’t outright BS. No one really thinks there’s a Buddhist university with degrees and graduation ceremonies and the promise of enlightenment with every degree. When I clicked on it I expected to see pretty much what I got.
The question isn't whether or not the USD can fail. Of course it can. The question to ask is whether Monero or any other given cryptocurrency will fare better than the USD in the event that it does collapse. That seems much less clear at this point in time.
Come on man you can't just throw this out there and not give us a link. You've piqued my interest, now give me some content!
Just for disambiguation: ECDSA is a signing algorithm, not a protocol or toolkit like PGP. PGP can produce ECDSA signatures through an extension RFC, but it's not a core part of OpenPGP.

There is no immediate replacement, because the overwhelming majority of packages never bothered to sign with PGP (and all evidence points to the overwhelming majority of signatures never being verified). In other words, this is much closer to removing "dead" code than to killing an active feature.

Longer term, the plan is to integrate Sigstore[1]-based signatures.

This is false.

It's been shown through computer modeling that road congestion emerges as a function of both vehicles/road segment/time unit and human driving behavior.

Remove the humans from the driver's seat, and your effective road capacity goes up significantly without doing anything else.

Very cool! For anyone wondering, before 2003 Excel only supported 65,536 rows. It now has a hard limit 1,048,576 rows.

Google sheets is a bit harder to figure out -- it doesn't have an explicit row limit, but does have a cell limit of 10M cells - so depending on your number of columns you can back out to the max rows.

If you want to see some practical effects of these row limits, check out the time that England misreported thousands of covid cases - because their Excel file ran out of space silently [1]. Oops.

This looks like a pretty sweet engineering effort! Anything cool you learned while building this that you can share here that helped you achieve this performance? What language did you use to build this application?

I'm asking for interest and for selfish reasons -- fellow spreadsheet builder of Mito [2] - which is pretty much just a UI wrapper for Pandas dataframes (and so can support 10M+ rows as well).

If the QDOS/86DOS angle interests you check out a talk that Tim Paterson, of Seattle Computer Products and later Microsoft, gave at VCF West 2019. He describes the history of 86-DOS (licensed to become PC-DOS and MS-DOS). API compatibility with CP/M, was the intention but no code was taken from CP/M.

CP/M was an Intel 8080-based OS. The 8086 was mostly source compatible (but not binary compatible) with the 8080 (i.e. 8080 assembler programs could be assembled targeting the 8086 with only minor changes) and QDOS/86DOS supporting CP/M APIs was to help it fit into this re-assembly workflow.

Are you of this? I have seen examples to the contrary even though most of this activity is very secretive since they are not allowed to disclose activity to third parties per the five eyes agreements. The agreements are about sharing of information. The patriot act explicitly allows spying on foreigners' communications and the five eyes agreements allow sharing by default. If you can share where in the five eyes agreements that spying on people in the five or nine eyes jurisdictions is not permitted, I would really like to see.
The game theory isn't really winner take all. In a two-sided market like Uber (drivers and passengers) it's nearly impossible to bootstrap competition, but with autonomous fleets it's just a matter of capital. You can dump 100 vehicles into a market and be a local player pretty quickly, and the between-city efficiencies aren't super important.

Developing the tech is getting cheaper too (sensing hardware improvements, ML improvements) so the first-mover advantage likely won't lead to stable moats. Competition will be more like Apple/Android where constant improvement (probably on cost) is necessary to maintain a lead.

9/11 is what people point to but it's really just modern national security ops. We live in a time of peace for those lucky enough to be in developed nations with democracies, but war is always one button press away. When WW3 happens any and all information will be an asset for maintaining stability and enabling attacks in wartime operations, particularly with how the next world war will be fought by causing direct harm to the economy and companies of foreign nations via cyber attacks and stealing information.
This makes so much sense - and why they'd team up with Uber. Google/Waymo don't care about non-coverage human-driver rideshare. However the users definitely do. So this partnership makes a ton of sense - if you're in a Waymo area, you could have a separate app, but having a single app for both types of rides is definitely a win for both.
I've used WiFi FTP server on android. The main advantage is that is totally cross platform, and very fast (far from USB speeds but easily you can get a few tens of MB/s). On the other hand, OneDrive is very good at uploading and keeping a sane folder structure, so there is also that.
Indeed if you Google for articles from around a decade ago, Nintendo after it's failed Wii U was especially feeling the heat from the ascendent mobile games industry. Dedicated handhelds game consoles were a dying industry. It was in such an environment that it looked to expand into mobile games, which it stopped further expanding after the success of Switch especially during covid.
