It's probably a lot easier to quit carbs than fat. Most people just don't know that fat is a (healthy) option.

Though, as you said, happily that is changing.

(Edit to say, speaking as a certified ketobro, I don't think you should do keto all the time, forever. A break day or two every few weeks, and stretches of healthy mixed-diet eating, in my experience, gets you the same benefits)
Looks like Open AI is reporting high error levels
I feel this issue is most likely a reflection of the way your workplace measures and conveys performance. If in the back of your mind you feel your sustenance is at stake due to criticism, you'll never be able to take it lightly.

Ultimately looking at your overall performance (rather than individual bumps up and down in a short period of time) is the way to put employees at ease.

You can't fix how your employer measures and enforces performance but you can learn to evaluate your own work in stretches of 3-, 6-, 12-months rather than at the granularity of a single PR or a single mistake
Basically the same as a standard Windows app. I only have Win 10 on my work PC, but if I compile the examples PLUS a manifest (or the #pragma to do this) it is comparable to the Microsoft apps:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PennRobotics/permalink/mai...

Since the same UUID in the manifest applies to Windows 11 and Windows 10, I'm willing to bet this would look a lot like the Windows 11 version of notepad.exe when compiled on a Windows 11 machine.
TIL there's a karma leaderboard on hacker news!
I disagree. Whenever I need to get locked in and focus on complex tasks I eat foods high in nitrates and run (need carbs for that).

Here's a study on the affects of nitrate's improving brain performance in older adults.

Ketosis has had the opposite effect for me and I've never been able to balance the keto-flu with my normal day-to-day activities. I feel like garbage.
I am manually managing a Mesh network but as the number of nodes get larger copying config entries is getting a tad tedious. And its sending of 'you are probably doing it wrong' signals. How do you/others manage a WG only (no thirdparty) mesh network? Have you written any config scripts (bash/Powershell/python) to add entries to some master config?
A lot of business data will be encrypted by policy before it gets anywhere near the (perhaps offsite) backup system. That means any compression the tape drive offers will be useless.
He knows perfectly well that the EU is able to pass regulation that will sting whereas the American federal government is never going to pass any meaningful tech regulations. We've seen it with social media. The EU has GDPR, California has CCPA, Montana has banned TikTok yet after two decades there's still not even a national privacy framework in the US.
37k karma. I keep posting because at 50k points you get to hang out with Tom Cruise at the Y Combinator Celebrity Center.

What’s that? Wrong cult? Now you tell me…

I don’t submit much, so the karma is from comments. Most of the time I manage to refrain from poor jokes like the one above because they do result in downvotes. In that sense karma seems to be serving its purpose as a soft content regulation mechanism.

I mostly type comments on the phone in idle moments — the typical usage scenario for an online social network. The iOS Screen Time feature suggests that I’ve spent an average of 40 min / day on this site for the past week, which sounds right.

Social networks tend to be addictive, but at least HN is benign because it doesn’t have an endless feed nor algorithmically boosted emotionally provocative viral content. I’ve certainly got much more pleasure and utility out of HN than I ever did with Twitter, for example.
This ironically might be a boon for the open source models. The problem seems to be privacy related so companies will be forced to run their own models instead of OpenAI, Google and Microsoft owning all the AI apis.
It’s probably economies of scale - not a lot of tape drives being manufactured these days and most are for enterprise usage, not cost-sensitive end users.
What matters is not whether they are inside or outside the city, it's that they are always far away from the center (where people actually want to go) so taking the actual location of the airport isn't a proper way to represent the real travel
I generally like the approach, but you can implement sorting of fixed number of items in a Boolean circuit(combinatorial logic, a bunch of ANDs and ORs stringed together). There is no need for recurrence or memory at all to sort a fixed number or items. There are a handful of abstractions possible in Boolean logic than n-gram statistics and there are a lot of Boolean circuits that can be very useful. But I’d like to see neural networks to be able to figure out algorithm that require at least a finite state machine(FSM), but preferably something harder. The challenge is to find a size difference for a problem between FSM and combinatorial logic.
I arrive at something like 25% of global nominal GDP according to Wikipedia, but I just quickly added up the numbers in my head, might be wrong. The Facebook ad numbers are probably not too relevant of a comparison though, since Microsoft and OpenAI have a different business model. I'd suspect the share of potential global revenue must be something in the >20% range.

But even if the EU was only 10% of the potential revenue - taking a 10% hit is not something large corporations do particularly willingly. I bet as long as they can find a way to make more money in the EU than they spend, they will. It's a business decision. Doesn't mean there won't be any whining.
Very important to keep in mind that a large part of European regulations are meant to encourage competition within the EU. I'm not clear on the results but the goals are very often clear. There are also moral and ecological stances, but still trying to impose them in a way that doesn't stiffle competition within the EU.
Is it up to car manufacturers to lobby legislators to regulate cars' top speed though?
Every thread about GDPR have people (I assume from US, especially given it being HN) whining how "hard" it is to implement (just don't store user data by default, how hard is that?) and how "overbearing" it is.

Then big surprise when another news about US spying on its citizens harder than people thought drops...
They're expensive because they aren't made for home users. Tape drives are made in far smaller volumes than say hard drives, yet have most of the same R&D costs.

Slightly related: I love how in the restaurant of the Lego museum in Billund you order by putting some bricks together in a special format (each dish had it own brick configuration IIRC - maybe it also had something to do with the colors) and then you ordered by having your mini-build scanned by a machine.

>>always either green or unreachable. Anything else would be bad press.

And thas is a great example of companies run by marketing ot finance people are untrustworthy.

They'll make decisions on the narrow interests of short-term gain or loss-avoidance without consideration of building inherently great products and services and an organization you can trust.

In this example the Status page always looks good, and maybe isn't "technically" dishonest, but it is fundamentally dishonest and in reality, useless.
The criticism can be useful even if it does not have good intentions. Usually those who want to hurt you, know just what to say to hurt you. If the criticism is completely baseless, it often does not make you angry, as you can trivially say why it is baseless. So it often such criticism also has an element of truth.

If you are angry, it is difficult to discern what are the truths. So it is useful to approach criticism both from good and bad intentions both in the same way. In other words, by default, if you get angry, try to figure out what in the criticism makes you angry.

So they are exporting gold, but what currency are they receiving in this exchange? The UAE dirham is pegged to the USD.
Can you be more specific, with examples? Who did what?
A very basic one: organized crime does in fact exist (contra to claims of bogeymen) and law enforcement benefits from clandestine investigations.

It is a trade-off. The downsides have been enumerated ad nauseam on hacker forums for decades and compared to the reality of organized crime comprise just a small percentage of the ill effects experienced in a relatively low corruption society like the United States.
This is a nonsensical statement. All markets, and thus all goods sold on a market are regulated. You can’t have markets without regulations.

The knack is in detachment from your own views.

Numbing to me implies not caring, while detachment from your views can be born from caring about improving.

If you want to improve, this likely involves shedding some convictions you hold too close.

… no regulation unless actual harm has been shown first.

What?

It is the duty of politics to protect the citizens and environment - also proactively. From reckless CEOs, greedy shareholders and lawyers which claim that it wasn’t strictly forbidden to cause harm.

Politics isn’t doing always right. The Cookie-Directive tried to make misuse of Cookies illegal. Actually it made web browsing horrible and created further questionable businesses like “cookie cloud storage providers aggregating cookies of several websites”.

On the other hand this people require ABS and ESP in cars. Banned Teslas “Autopilot” and had smart ideas like type certification for aircraft’s. And then they forbid stuff which can cause cancer…that was smart! What comes next? Acting against monopolies and oligopolies like Microsoft and Apple?
That is against their ToS though if you use your new LLM commercially.
Yeah I wish we got to see both instead of just the current balance. You'll notice your comments do better at first and then drop later, I suspect because some interests have google alerts or the like set up. I started getting muted a lot less often when I started keeping a list of "sacred cows" that will quickly get you flagged for a divergent opinion.
> i.e. they want to attribute any perceived problem with your work as it meaning you are a bad programmer. Not taking that personally is far tougher.

I know enough that I can tell if it's preference (say, linting style) or misguided (for example there's some wrong advice floating around that multiple returns are inherently bad) or something I actually missed, and in that last case usually how much of an issue it actually is and whether it's a new topic to learn or something I forgot or something I deliberately didn't bother with.
I assumed (incorrectly, it seems) the former. Otherwise the side it’s written on is wholly irrelevant. Fooled me!

Even though we live in a world where it seems everyone shares opinions freely, that’s mostly just the internet. IRL most people won’t look at you in the eyes and tell you what you think. A healthy workplace is the opposite, where your manager and peers will proactively comment on the quality of your work and your behavior. This might be annoying at times, but you have to look at it like a gift. Most people aren’t at functional workplaces and go through life without ever being seriously chided for unproductive behavior. Or they think their work is higher quality than it could be. Learn to take feedback and you’ll be the best version of yourself.
Solving the SBOM crisis with WebAssembly components
To try to make this concrete, if you have a program A that does bubble sort, and a program B that does selection sort:

1. VBB would be making it so you can't glean information about A or B by running VBB(A) or VBB(B) or examining them, for various definitions of "information".

You can't tell A is a bubble sort at all, and you can't tell B is a selection sort at all.

VBB is, as mentioned, impossible in the general case.

2. IO would be making it so if you are holding IO(A) and IO(B), you can't tell them apart, and can't tell if the original was A or B.

So you can have functionally identical programs, and when you run them through IO, you can't tell whether the original was A or B.

In traditional European fashion the EU is again likely to crush any emerging European AI venture with overburdening regulation while companies in the US flourish. For decades now the American approach of wait and see has proven superior (with few exceptions for sectors like pharmaceuticals). When the government waits with regulation until more clarity has been established to what the actual business models are going to be like then you give companies a chance to establish themselves versus the old ones. The European approach just scares new companies off and they'll try out their new ventures in different jurisdictions.

Tonga Volcano eruption put holes in the atmosphere, sent plasma bubbles to space
If you have a bubble sort and selection sort, and run them through IO, for either result, you can't tell if the original was bubble sort or selection sort.

Roughly: VBB is the ability to take any program and make it indistinguishable from random.

IO is the ability to take two programs that compute the same function and make them indistinguishable from each other.
It is getting traction for everyone targeting the Windows Store, and long term, as discussed at Blue Hat IL 2023, Windows will be locked down by default.

So, he wants regulation unless it hurts OpenAI's bottom line?

So he doesn't really want any regulation at all.
I tried keto (to the extend it was possible without sacrificing every social event) and found that it ruined my cognitive ability. This is known as the "keto flu" and it made me sluggish, tired and gave me headaches. I just wasn't able to function properly. Naturally I am not condoning high carbohydrates diets, but I a variated diet with slight deviations based on personal preferences (and seasonality). I do tend to avoid to many carbohydrates and eat more green, fruit, meat and dairy products.
Throwback to ten years ago and libraries like Mercury: https://www.npmjs.com/package/mercury

This is what we were doing before React and Babel came along. No dependencies, no transpiling, light weight, no IDE setup, were all a given and not special features.
So it's subjective right? The balance.

Since a company is usually harmed by increased regulation their opinion is biased.

But there's no oppposite to this. Governments don't benefit if companies leave and in fact they lose out. This also includes the population (jobs etc) that means the opinion of the government isn't biased.

Keep in mind there is no complete feature parity with NPM. This only allows you to use packages not present in Deno's ecosystem, but it does not guarantee it will work flawlessly (and in practice it can be a pain to use some packages).

The best way to use Deno and take advantage of its benefits is to use Deno's packages. Allowing NPM packages is a good strategic move because on top of already being quite different from Node, there are not many packages, but it does not take away from how well it will work with Deno-native packages.

I hate Newark airport so much because of this. Even worse, as a non-American just visiting, I tend to not have mobile data stateside. The wifi is pretty shit in many spots, I've had to literally leave one place because I could not get a wifi signal to even order and the staff refused to help. All this nonsense while there is a tablet right in front of me! Stupid company that does this, stupid airport that allowed a company to do this.

Regulation without known harm is a case of we need to do something and this is something. The rules will be arbitrary and expensive to comply with and will most likely have no preventative effect on any negative effects.
There are apparently plans to add a deno-style permission system to Node (I think there is experimental support behind a flag in one of the recent builds) but I don't think it will become the default the way deno does it, at least not in the foreseeable future.

Can it compile native modules like serialport into an executable? or am I dreaming too much?
Then you're using "tinfoil hat" with a much different definition than the usage I've generally seen. I tend to see the term applied in cases where somebody is mistaken about matters of fact, not merely differences in value judgments about the facts. It's the difference between "Is there meat in this dish? I'm vegan." and "Is there meat in this dish? All meat dishes are made from dolphins.". The former is reaching a different conclusion based on the same facts, whereas the latter is reaching a different conclusion based on erroneous understanding of the world. Only the latter is "tinfoil hat".

By calling a difference in value judgment "tinfoil hat", you are stating that they are wrong about the facts, not merely that they care where you don't.
