People are literally doing this for free. You said that there is no individuals, and no non-profits, that can do this. Which is laughable. They're doing it right now: https://arxiv.org/abs/2305.11206

It may even be the case that all of that RLHF training that OpenAI does simply lessens the quality of generations, as suggested by one of their own papers and the paper above.

Emacs was heavily inspired by the Lisp machine and is still widely used today.

However, I tried to start using it several times and gave up in frustration, it just won't fit me. Various vi-compatible modes make it even worse. And I love Lisp but without Emacs I feel like second class citizen.

> I looked into what Xilinx Vivado was really doing and found a log indicating that it was re-running a Verilog read on the changed file several thousand times, each time taking a second or so.

Just reading that made me nauseous, to think this forced so many trillions of CPU cycles to be spent on nothing, and nobody at Xilinx corrected it until some time later.

Money in this construction is a means of allocating scarce items. Post scarcity means money is less relevant. But, as we need little bits of paper to give meaning, universal basic income speaks directly at monetary velocity. By giving everyone money, everyone participates in the economy at some basic level. But it really depends on whether we can get over the industriousness is godliness meme.
The technical bits need a hook - for things like "details on how the C compiler is actually a devil" the hook is already present for many people on HN, they know what C is, they know the compiler, they're primed to be interested.

For something more offbeat the technical part isn't going to sell it (unless you write a blog from the language viewpoint: "How I used Rust to beat an LLM into submission" or something).

You might want to get someone else to read up and play with it and write the post for you, as coming in from the out side.

And even then, doing everything right, you likely will languish in the new queue unless the lightning strikes and everything lines up.
Speaking personally, absolutely yes.
Years ago at the house we were renting our cable Internet would have intermittently go down. It would only last a couple of minutes and only happened in the mornings when the sun was coming up.

I was convinced that somehow the line from our house to the pole in the alley was bad and when the sun was warming it up it caused the issues. The cable company refused to fix it since they never saw a problem on their end by the time I would reach customer support.

My solution was to upgrade to business cable Internet, which was about the same price we were already paying, just required signing a 1 year contract.

First day the new service was active, called business support and 2 days later they came out and replaced the line. No issues after that.

+1 to all of these, especially #1.

A lot of companies will have a career doc that lists expectations for each role. Take a look at the manager version and make sure it is actually something you want to do and then start doing some of those things. For example - lead a small group on a project, mentor someone who needs help, implement a change that will improve team health, reduce chaos on a project, align stakeholders, etc.

Tell your manager you’d like to explore that career path and frequently ask them what they need help with. If you don’t have a good relationship with your current manager, you may consider finding a new one who will help you grow. Look for a manager that is ambitious and looking to develop someone they can delegate to and you can ride their wave.

Everywhere I’ve worked in the last 20 years has needed strong managers, including startups and FAANGS. If you’re slightly patient and show some signal of readiness an opportunity will arise.
I think it's one thing to push back on repeated requests for your input/opinion outside of your role in a way that makes you a "de facto" leader. But I think it's wholly another if you're the person with the best insight, and there is need for your knowledge to be shared. Coders are knowledge workers, not widget makers - they're paid for what they know and can do with that knowledge. This doesn't need to mean you become a manager, join committees, get added to ever-increasing cross-functional project teams.

I don't follow. They're saying you can't just take them off the returns pile. As with printer cartridges, you can buy them direct and do anything you like with them... but if you got them in a milk delivery, they're still the dairy's and the dairy will want them back.
I find the opposite to be true, Tokio is a fine library but it makes the whole program very complex.

Perhaps it's because I generally don't write code for many short lived workloads, but I find using real threads to be a lot easier to work with (plus it saves time during compilation). Tokio is great at what it does, but I have to wonder how relevant these types of threads are when "fearless concurrency" is one of the token advantages of the language.

I think this article would've been a lot better if it did some actual calculations in the spawned threads, rather than simply waiting. A smart enough compiler would see that the results of the wait calls, which usually don't come with any other side effects, are never used and optimize them out entirely.
I was wondering about this too, thank you for the insight!
It's obviously not astroturfing since it's a statement from Apple themselves. Astroturfing, if we were talking politics, would be if Apple secretly funded swift user groups across the world to make it appear that people liked the language.

Obviously they don't have to do that, since people love it.

Fwir, BigQuery doesn't yet support lateral joins, though they do use the same concept in their UNNEST and array expansion features.

It would be nice to have this feature; its a handy hammer for the right type of nail.
The way people work will certainly change. AI tools can or will soon be able to produce pretty good art, music, texts (both original and translations), etc. I think there will still be people working with these tools (to select, touch up, set the tasks, etc.), as well as more people producing such tools, but unquestionably the efficiencies created by these new technologies will result in a shrinking of headcounts in traditional areas.
No, OP paid for a fraction of the ink they received. If you don’t finish paying for your house or car, you don’t get to keep them. HP is simply not asking for OP to return the fraction of the ink he’s deciding not to buy, presumably because it’s not worth the hassle to them.

Added: I, for one, am pleased that HP has sent me hundreds of dollars worth of consumables (paper and ink) and lets me then pay for it over time, at a discounted rate and no interest.
Aren't there already thousands of robots doing rote manual labor jobs?
Either way, in socal the metrolink trains operate at grade going pretty fast up
to 80mph and you don't see so many accidents. I'd blame some other factor over
the fact the train runs on the surface behind a gate.

Such as? Brightline has the worst record in the country. In the Bay Area Caltrain runs similar speeds, for a similar length of track, and still manages half the annual deaths. And, yes, Caltrain deals with people on the tracks fairly regularly. And, yes, I know nothing's perfect – someone just managed to drive right into a BART train last Monday. Regardless, Brightline is doing a worse job than any other rail company and they're resistant to any obvious (and relatively low cost) improvements. Caltrain, while already having a better safety record, is moving towards grade separated crossings to safely facilitate higher speeds. Grade separation is way more expensive than the shit that Brightline is refusing to do.

> People used to say that the robots are going to destroy skilled labor.

Who was saying that? It was established (and has come to fruition) that robots would replace a lot of manual workers in unskilled jobs in places like factories. Much of this has been automated or outsourced. But we have millions of factory workers today that are working with robots and/or doing more complex manufacturing than in years past.

I also think there's a real 80/20 problem with LLMs right now. Having worked with them for a few months they are undoubtedly helpful, especially for simple things. And people will build useful and productive tools with them. But, in my experience, they only get you at best 80% of the way there - the remaining 20% just isn't there. Not yet anyways.
I would be more willing to "Sign in with Google" if OP provided any kind of gentle nudge or onboarding a la https://www.keybr.com/. It's too blatant and in-your-face as it is.
Yeah, half that list was movies that I'd consider some of the most highly rated and still talked about sci-fi of the 70's.
PSA: When you sign up for a subscription service you're telling the company they should keep doing what they're doing. What they're doing is repeatedly taking (often small) steps to degrade your rights and give themselves more power over you & your wallet. If you give them an inch, they'll take the piss.

(I am not suggesting that OP or anyone else getting screwed on a subscription thing are in the wrong.)
Oh please, are you going to complain that the ink also isn’t magically teleported to your door? It is called “Instant Ink” after all. It’s the product’s name, so clearly it must be a factual description of what it does.

The subscription is more than clear. Please show me where it claims in any way shape or form that you are buying a cartridge of ink that you can keep using after your subscription. I’m waiting.

Thanks! Under the "Sign In" button you can tap "Alternative method", it opens a webview and you can auto-fill you credentials from the keychain. It's a few more taps, because you have to choose from the list of saved credentials, but otherwise that would be a security risk, Apple wouldn't allow that.
>"Abusing your position as a desirable market"

Sounds like something that the US does routinely.

>"Especially while the US provides Europe with its extremely expensive military support blanket"

1) I think it is more than compensating by Europe agreeing to use USD as the reserve currency. The US gets enormous benefits as the result.

2) Angry bear seems not to be able to win over a single country. Beside the US does it for self serving reasons. It is not a charity. And if it did not I think the Europe is quite capable to create and maintain their own army and weapons.

The SR-71 has a special place in so many hearts. I don't know why but I always imagined the SR-71 as a pretty large plane. I saw one IRL finally a few years ago at a museum in Tucson AZ and was surprised how small it was. It looked about the size of an F-15.
Or because it's not really medicine and person specific? I've taken LSD several times in varying doses and it's never been anything more than "a really really fun time". Nothing profound, but damn fun times, the same effect as any fun memorable party

Perhaps if you are looking for something profound or want a change of mindset, psychedelics might be able to help you reach it - similar to how shamans used psychedelics to talk to their gods or whatever - but if you're just looking to have fun that's what you'll get
Would be interesting to hear what problems was hit trying to run 100k threads. I remember testing out a million threads on an by now older desktop and just had to do a couple of sysctl setting changes that were easy to find.

Also would be good to specify how the memory as measured (eg to be able to verify they are actually measuring physical memory usage).
Wow, that's depressing. So that seems to suggest that assuming I am smart (which I'd like to think I am), I should have already ditched software engineering and gone into a different field altogether.

It's got some interesting points. I'd love to hear more about their assertion of how someone who is a fast learner benefits from a more stable field. It sort of makes sense as they wrote it but I'd like to read more about it.

Here I thought I was always going to do software in some capacity as long as I was working professionally, but maybe I really shouldn't. No idea what that would be though. Just going into management isn't it, at least not for me.

If it’s a popular enough topic (and the flamewar detectors doesn’t hit) it will stay. I’ve seen tabloids make it to and stay on the front page.
Easiest way to become a manager is to work somewhere that is growing rapidly. If you do a good job and lead projects, as well as work with your manager closely on it as a goal and please key stakeholders, then you should be able to take a new EM role when it opens up. It’s even easier if the team you’re working on as an IC grows enough to split (usually ~8 eng).

Just make sure you’re very explicit about this goal when interviewing / in your 1:1s. The reality is that the ratio of eng to manager means there are just less positions available. So you want to make sure you’re not wasting your time interviewing / working somewhere that just isn’t going to have the opportunity for you.

This narrative does not jive with my memory. There were extremely vocal critics of the invasion of Iraq, long before troops were on the ground. Some of the U.S. closest allies refused to participate. Much of the international community was opposed to the invasion, even with the U.S. doing whatever it could to push for a coalition.

Comparing the invasion of Iraq with the current situation in Ukraine is like comparing apples with hand grenades.

I've driven Megane E-tech for the last 3 months, and I wouldn't recommend it for long road trips either. It's a pleasant city car, the traditional car bits in it are very nice, but the EV tech in it is meh.

In practice it charges at ~60kW most of the time (Renault advertises peak speed twice as that, but that peak is very brief). I only got 2.6mi/kWh on highways in the UK weather. This is significantly worse than 150kW+ charging and 3.3mi/kWh efficiency I'm getting in Ioniq 5. Tesla can be even more efficient with similarly high charging speeds.

Road trip capabilities of BEVs on the market vary wildly from near-ICE performance to getting stranded.

For one thing, I question the europeans and their lackluster response to what is occurring on their continent. Why is the US taxpayer so much more invested in this contrasted to a French or German taxpayer?

Personally looking at things at home we have higher priorities than this. Other nations seem to be making a similar choice given their lack of financial commitment.
