Another big aspect of allowing to handle any event is integration with other JS libraries. See this basic example of interacting with Sortable JS [1]

Also, htmx has a response header called `HX-Trigger`[2] which lets server trigger custom events on the client and you can handle those events as well[3].
This is quite useful if you have interdependent data and you want to refresh regions on the page in response to user actions somewhere else (for which htmx allows multiple different patterns for different scenarios)[4]

I'm inclined to think taxing AI used to displace human labor is likely to be far more effective. But I'm not aware of any bills experimenting with this right now.
>So only new technology is technology?

"Technology" in the sense as Hacker News uses it? Yes.

Unless you want to argue that Windows 3.11 and Blackberry and 8086 today are tech as in the tech industry.
This program is mostly good, because there isn’t a better way to detect and therefore deter corporate crimes.

However, over time the program has also been suborned by former members of the SEC

> The Wall Street Journal estimated that of more than 52,000 tips submitted to the agency in the decade to September 2021, just 0.5% resulted in awards. Critics grumble that the sec is less than transparent about the way it sorts tips and awards informants

> Perhaps the gravest concern, however, is over a secondary business that is growing up alongside the sec process. In a forthcoming study Alexander Platt of the University of Kansas’s law school suggests that a handful of law firms, often staffed by former employees of the sec, are responsible for winning an outsize share of whistleblower awards. Those firms, in turn, often charge their whistleblower clients high legal fees, perhaps more than a third of the value of the eventual award. But informants who want their tips investigated may do well to hire them. Using data from 2012 to 2020, Mr Platt found that former sec regulators were involved in about one-third of cases where whistleblowers used attorneys. He reckons that about a quarter of all the money dispersed by the sec scheme has gone to recipients represented by law firms that have hired former staff from the agency. And that share appears to be growing: from 2021 to the middle of 2022, what he calls “revolving-door firms” raked in more than 40% of the funds awarded. One implication, finds Mr Platt, is that the arrangement risks looking unhealthily close.

I've been downvoted here many times for voicing this same opinion for a long time. Consider switching to Orion (a fork of Safari WebKit, Mac only, still beta though) - https://browser.kagi.com/ - or PaleMoon (a hard fork of Firefox) - http://www.palemoon.org/, as they are the only browsers that respect your zero-telemetry wish, when you toggle the right settings. Tor Browser (stripped of Tor) - https://www.torproject.org/download/ - is also a very good privacy-hardened Firefox soft fork (though it is yet to fix a bug that still phones Mozilla) but using it generates a lot of Captchas from CloudFlare, and to a lesser extent Google, both seem to hate this browser with a vengeance. Vivaldi browser (a Chromium fork with better privacy options) is another a good option but a distant second because it insists on phoning home every time you use the browser, and Vivaldi has publicly said they will not turn that off as turning off those analytics impairs their monetizing options. (A good application firewall can block those though, and Vivaldi is a decent company).
From skimming the article, it seems to be due to decreased coal burning and increased renewables. So good news indeed! However, the trajectory of progress at the moment is just stagnating emissions, not decreasing so a lot of work remains to be done.

It's still bad for my use case though. My use case being: (1) figuring out rails magic, and (2) coming up with ways to twist the Rust borrow checker into submission.
The difference is that one type of work is something you do of your own choosing, and the other type of work is enforced and you have no control over it.

Not offering an opinion on whether it's good or bad that it's enforced, but that's the difference between the two.

The parent was complaining about needing "either [...] a mobile phone [...] or some custom device", which is not true. And sure, Authy is a third-party; but it's not the only option, and you can implement your own (TOTP is not that complicated).

And TOTP has much better user experience than raw keys, especially for beginners who might mix the public/private parts, and experts who want hardware protection.

Does TOTP rely on some external service though or can it be done fully locally? AFAIK a benefit of private+public key signatures is that it can all be done without reliance on 3rd parties.
Fuzzy logic always seemed misguided to me. You're just calculating values with real arithmetic instead of booleans. It's not a whole different kind of mathematics.

When I'm drawing on screen and placing a widget not on the left or the right, but at x=f*width, is that already fuzzy logic? The classical examples of Japanese washing machines determining detergent dose are not much more complicated.
Well, that is your right as an owner of the packages.

The fact that it's an accident doesn't remove the liability.

If a human driver fail to brake somehow (like they have a bad reflex and push the wrong pedal), they might have followed all the rules and regulations, it might be "an accident", but they will still be liable for dammages they cause.

I'm not sure why it should be any different for a software bug in the autopilot for example.
I think some new scenarios between RCP 8.5 and RCP 6 would be useful. There's the old IS92B which would be closest. I found an old presentation from 1992 [1] where it was 2.7 C by 2100. A large effect.

If we don't have more specific information people can get the incorrect idea that "crisis is averted".

I would think about different aspects of the problem a lot. How they manifest themselves, which of them I could possibly tackle and which are beyond my comprehension at the moment. Eventually I get enough resolve to approach and make an attempt on those that seem reachable. This almost inevitably clears up just a bit of the nature of other aspects, so that after another period of contemplation you can in turn tackle on them.

So basically, look hard at the problem, chisel it a bit and back off for a moment. If you can't solve it right away it's a substantial task that has to be treated with respect. Naturally this process is poorly suited for meeting deadlines.
Two things that seem in contention can be true at the same time. They made a sled for the EV, like ie common for EVs. They built the top of it to match the F150. Both true. I’d say it’s a full fledged EV design and an F150.

Just wish we had the battery breakthrough needed to give these vehicles some real range.
Not really? Relu and softmax look a bit like the components of a fuzzy associative map if you squint a bit, but the lineage is distinct.
Although fuzzy logic was developed by Lotfi Zadeh in the USA, it never gained the level of interest and respectability here that it did in Japan and Eastern Europe. I remember American engineers saying that fuzzy techniques were things they already understood and were doing under different names. They saw no benefit in adopting a new conceptual system.

Among the more philosophically inclined, there was controversy other whether fuzzy logic was really something new or just a repackaging of old ideas with a misleading vocabulary. There was a book on how this debate played out in journal articles, but I can't think of the title now.
Thank you so much, dear sir!
What exactly is missing/broken in jq right now which warrants a fork? I've been using jq daily for years, and I can't remember the last time I hit a bug (must have been many years ago) and I can't recall any features I felt been missing for the years I've been using it.

For me it's kind of done. It could be faster, but then I tend to program a solution myself instead, otherwise I feel like it's Done Enough.

Not true, under the current EU emissions trading scheme you can actually earn money by selling the certificates for the CO2 you remove. If you check the price of it you can see that well defined markets can actually get the power of capitalism to work in your favour, with the price jumping from $30 to $90 within last year.

You are obviously correct, and I shouldn’t post when I should be sleeping.

> Unlike fuzzy logic, probabilistic logic is not truth functional.

Its been a long time since I had much engagement with fuzzy logic, but I distinctly remember it being constructed as a class such that Bayesian probability was a fuzzy logic, though the others of interest were much simpler. But that may be as wrong as the other part of that post...

Langport-A self-hosted LLM serving platform that provides OpenAI-compatible APIs
I'm excited to share with you a new open-source project called langport, which aims to provide a lightning-fast large language model serving platform.

Inspired by lmsys/fastchat, we've built a distributed LLM serving system. Our focus on performance means we use batch inference to get higher throughput on the serving platform.
Langport offers a range of core features, including streaming API interface support, batch inference for higher throughput, and OpenAI-Compatible RESTful APIs.
There is another kind of question that sometimes gets an XYP answer even though it wasn't an XYP: Thats where the asker is trying to get help doing something abusive or anti-social.

"How can I conceal the nuclear waste I put in the trash so the garbage men will take it?"

"Have you considered using a hazardous waste drop off site instead?"

It's possible that the asker hasn't considered that their approach is abusive or that they weren't aware of better alternatives... and even if they fully know that they are asking for help in being a jerk it's often preferable to the respondent avoid the confrontation (and escalation) of calling it out. If the asker really is just confused, responding by suggesting solving a different problem is the right answer. If they're really just a jerk no great harm is done to anyone by giving the benefit of doubt.

In this case if they're not confused about what they're asking they may well be confused about the kinds of activities the supporters are willing to aid and abet.

I've seen this most often online in people looking for help spamming, password cracking, hacking computers, deploying censorship, and committing financial fraud.

Maybe the asker is a sociopath or is simply getting paid enough to discount the harm their actions cause others -- but the same won't apply to the people answering their questions.
Fuzzy logic uses very different rules.

It is common to saysthat the 'truthiness' of (a and b), is the minimum truthiness of a and b. Or becomes a maximum, not becomes 1 - truthiness.
Then normal predicate logic works by combining these rules the usual way. E.g. (a implies b) becomes b or not a, which is max(b, 1-a).

Basyan probability is much more sophisticated, but also more difficult to calculate.
From what I remember, basically everything that isn't a phone or computer is on older process nodes that once were cutting edge. Some of these are so old that it doesn't make economic sense anymore to scale up capacity, or it might not even be possible anymore to easily do so.

As a result you have production lines that were reasonably well suited for demand pre-covid, now having to deal with everyone stocking up on way more parts than they need because they don't want to deal with shortages again.
Generally I agree with you but this is dangerous:

> Nations have started legislating laws against falsehoods after all.

Unfortunately, this is just a tool in quite a large government's drawer for suppressing any kind of dissent. "My" government and their political party are the biggest spreaders of misinformation and blatant lies, but don't even for a second think this will be used against them or any lying corporation.
This is squarely aimed at the political opposition, and even more so at anyone daring to upset the status quo.

One might think that tool morality is a result on how it’s used, bit I would rather not have it because it’s ripe for abuse.

As far as books are concerend:
- Database Internals

- Designing Data Intensive Applications

- Disk-Based Algorithms for Big Data

- Database Systems by Ullman et al (http://infolab.stanford.edu/~ullman/pub/dscbtoc.txt) Part IV covers implementation details of a database system.
One of the resources that has helped me the most to understand this issue is https://www.monashfodmap.com/ by Monash University.
It's never come to full blows though.
Sure, but still, if you ask GPT/person "What are the best books about teaching dogs to sit?" you'd still look up each book individually, read reviews and figure out if they really are worth the time reading, before starting to purchasing the books. And you'd find out if the book exists or not as soon as you search.

So even if the "quality" is different, the way to verify the information is the same.
All it requires is the initial setup key and a somewhat accurate (~30s) time source.

Give https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-based_one-time_password#A... a read, it's extremely simple.
Huh, why?

First, for already closed source programs the obfuscation results don't make a difference at all. They remain just as obscure before as they are now. (Unless you routinely try to de-compile all closed source programs?)

The obfuscation result in the submitted article really only makes a difference to open source programs.

But: thanks to advances in mathematics and cryptography, a vendor can prove to you that their program does what it's supposed to, without having to reveal the source code or anything else about the program.
Bing chat? You mean having to use Edge, aka Chromium without any extensions? I'd sooner go to Firefox.

GPT 4 with browsing isn't quite there yet either, usually takes at least two or three attempts to not have it fail somewhere in between. Should be pretty good once they iron it out though.
Cool. And Coal plant exhaust is like downtown-chicago-tier air. almost like I'm purposely comparing something noted in the article, to the coal thing I compared it to. wonder why one would do that.

now, to be clear, the radioactive meltdown part of the nuclear plant, I was not comparing to the coal exhaust. just the water part was compared to the coal exhaust. the meltdown part making an area uninhabitable for ten thousand years, that doesn't have a thing for comparison. that's just a bonus that stands on its own.

now - did you read my comment, like I read the article, before replying to the comment to which you replied? confused? you should be. so long, and thanks for all the fish.

Actually my main concern is the reliance on 3rd parties - requiring a mobile phone is an implicit reliance on a lot of 3rd parties that IMO should not have any business where/how i authenticate myself.

I don't know about TOTP but if it can be completely independent from 3rd parties and can be used locally like private+public key signatures can then i guess it is fine.
I had to double check to make sure PyPI isn't implementing phone-number based 2FA. I then breathed a sigh of relief.

https://nakedsecurity.sophos.com/2017/07/11/two-factor-via-y...
Vim is not Vi. It's a project that initially emulated its behaviour and then extended it. So I would say that Vim is from 1991.
PyPI has never supported 2FA via SMS.
Korea (now North Korea) was/is an ally of China and requested them there. The push up to Pyongyang was 100% USA taking territory from China. Just as Taliban taking territory in Afghanistan was taking territory from USA.

There was also the Vietnam war where China also supplied arms and soldiers.

I’m not saying China are good, or USA are bad. I’m refuting your claim the USA never did anything to China.

The constant harassment of Chinas border within the taiwan straight is another example. The building of satellite states (south Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Phillipines) surrounding China is another example.

The formation of the quad is another example.

Are you reading the same history as me?
It's bounded by the size of the object, eg. the struct. You know this because it was either allocated with malloc or on the stack. There's a paper at the link (one of the most referenced on this topic) which explains everything in detail.
A fun exercise is to write a series of sat solvers: brute force, DPLL and CDCL you really get an immediate feel for the strength of the algorithms and none of these implementations need to go much beyond 50-100 lines in a modern language.

You can then of course spend months tuning and optimizing the hell out of your code to squeeze a further 10x performance.

If you're really crazy like Sarek, you can also formally verify these implementations: https://sarsko.github.io/_pages/SarekSkot%C3%A5m_thesis.pdf
This is interesting. I signed up and will give the API a try.

Just so you know, you being "free while in beta" is concerning to me as a business customer. I would be much more enthusiastic and reassured if I could sign up on a pay-as-you-go basis right now.

The fact that it's free and you intend to monetize sometime in the future sends the signal that there's a large chance this service will be gone in a few weeks/months, which is scarier than being charged now, so we have to hedge our bet and try out competitor APIs too, just in case.

I'd rather support your startup and be on a paid plan right away.
> And in general the math, the homology groups at play in surface codes are trivial because everything is a simplicial complex.

I wouldn't sign that. Sure, you can define homology groups for simplicial complexes pretty easily, and it makes stuff computable, which is great. Here is why I still think this doesn't make anything trivial:

1. Computations can be damn hard, and if you do them using a computer, you might miss out on a lot of insight and geometric intuition.
2. More crucially, if you have a topological space and represent it as two different simplicial complexes. How do you prove that the homology groups are the same? I don't know if that is approachable from the simplicial point of view, and I guess it would contain pretty terrible book keeping. Very far from trivial I guess. This is where singular homology really shines: You prove that simplicial homology is isomorphic to singular homology and don't have to worry about that ever again. Also functoriality only works if you have maps which preserve the simplicial structure, whereas singular homology has no such restriction.
