I don't believe this for a second. When you play a game, you know what performance target it should be hitting, because you can visually see it.

There's no meaningful performance target for websites. Instant would be great, and so for matters of debate, let's say that's the next vsync poll and go with the most common poll rate that exists today, ~16ms for 60hz monitors. Is that going to happen? No.

Since you don't know what the up/down speed is for any random given website, there's no way to know if what you're experiencing is just the server with a low upload speed to to your client, or the protocol itself.

And the Internet connection of the website itself, the language the web server is written in, the performance of the software in question, and other factors are going to have dramatically more impact than the protocol version in question.
Was this in the past week? We had much worse latency this past week compared to the rest (in addition to model unavailability errors), which we attributed to the Microsoft Build conference. One of our customers that uses it a lot is always at the token limit and their average latency was ~5 seconds, but that was closer to 10 second last week.

...also why we can't wait for other vendors to get SOC I/II clearance, and I guess eventually fine-tuning our own model, so we're not stuck with situations like this.
Reminds me of the famous “you have to be this tall to write multithreaded code” poster :)
It's one of his most accessible movie, and usually resonates with tech people for obvious reasons. His best movies imo are Mirror, Ivan's Childhood, Andrei Rublev, Stalker and then Solaris, Nostalgia and Sacrifice.

Now Solaris book by Lem is far superior to Tarkovsky's rendition.
The original Solaris novel had a different ending, a disillusioned reflection by Kelvin, which I found much better. It was probably not dramatic enough for a movie, too analytical.
Because you had journalists and documentarians like Greenwald and Poitras doing an amazing job of getting the story out there.
Exactly. LLMs are incredible at information processing, and ok-to-terrible at information retrieval. All LLM applications that rely on accurate information are either infeasible or kick the entire can to the retrieval component.
Seems like a good idea, you communicate a complaint in order for it to get fixed not for shaming the messenger or the company.

The solution if any can still be written down. If you don't formulate the reason there you would be unable to address any complaints.
Looking forward to the first lawsuits over this stuff.

Any evidence that the sat formulation helps over the choice of not python? My hunch is it was also somewhat naive python?
Thanks, I missed that because I saw several previous versions of this story that left that out.
If you're cringing to the description "achingly beautiful" by cringing, you're saying you find their description beautiful..
Right, but, the word "server" is often used to refer not to the physical machine, or even a virtual machine, but to the "web-server" meaning a running instance of Apache nginx or IIS. etc.

Not saying such a feature is needed just wondering could it be useful for some purpose.
I think this is the wrong post
Could you explain how storing prompts was a disaster?
Right now, you have two main options:

Use a GET, and squeeze all the parameters you need in the URL or headers somewhere
Use a POST, and have the request considered as unsafe & uncacheable

Third option: you POST or PUT to a resource representing the search, then you’re free to redirect and subsequently GETs of this resource can be cached.

Wanting a special method for search hurts the conceptual integrity of HTTP, where resource representation is the core idea to build on top, it isn’t supposed to be just a request/response protocol.
Fidonet in 2023
Is Fidonet still running in 2023? I never actually got to use fido net in the early 90s but have read a lot about it recently. Is sounded really awesome at a time when the internet was only really available to a select minority of people. If it is still running please post a link.

Thank you.
Forward thinking for him to try out ChatGPT for his work. Nothing wrong with experimenting with a potential helpful tool.

But just as I review and correct code snippets it produces, he should have verified the results because nothing indicated to him that they are any good (besides the fact that they were well written).

I'm pretty sure plenty of other lawyers are experimenting with ways to use ChatGPT without being quite as naive.

This is 100% on this guys uncritical thinking.
I think any meaningful improvements that could have arrived by improvements to the Hypertext Transfer Protocol itself will have and can have been eaten up by all the stupidity of modern web development.

So no, I don't think anything meaningful has arrived in terms of performance, otherwise we'd all be singing its praises.

Rest In Peace, HTTP/2 Server Push.
When I'm conversing with family or friends by phone using my VoIP, and the connection starts getting bad, I always volunteer that the problem is not on my end, since my connection is wired.
I imagine most individual projects are still low enough in dependencies that you still have to try for that to be the slow part.
While you *can* do the same with a GET (include data in the body), it's not spec-compliant for servers to parse and interpret this data.

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/978061/http-get-with-req...

When designing an API, and if spec compliance is not key, I wonder if client-compliance would become the issue (clients refusing to emit a GET body).
Exactly. They talk about how he ruined their ability to spy on bad guys, but never mention how they were missing that ability to spy on citizens and friendly foreign governments. Maybe if they had stuck to spying on bad guys, Snowden would still be using his intellect today to help them.
> Microsoft is especially cooperative, even as going so far to make sure their systems are compatible with surveillance systems.

I don't doubt you but a reference would help folks know what to make of this.
So, ChatGPT actually generates Python code, runs it and outputs the results?

This means that the "only" addition is an API that ChatGPT can sometimes "decide" to use to run some Python code?
I've seen more errors lately I think, but no the latency has been an issue for months. I think it has grown some over the last few months, but not a dramatic change.
Sounds nice. Rich ones will get panels and batteries, poor ones... Well, the usual.

I wasn't thinking of "error-codes' but rather "status codes". An ID of a resource, running on the web could unify it uniquely, not really the physical machine but the server-application we are talking to. But maybe it's enough that we have URIs?

Estonia (just south of Finland) just dropped to negative too a week ago.
When comparing December and April, the reason it actually costs <0 is that all the solar panels in the country are producing more than we can consume on weekends, inside the week it's often 0 when there's sunshine. In December we were paying through our nose for electricity and there was even a slight panic about it. I appreciate nuclear power, but I'm not sure it's the primary factor in Finland.
Sure, I don't actually think that my arguments would actually hold up in court, but that's kind of my point; the law is written very poorly, which means that the _actual_ legal effect is not nearly as clear to a lay person as the original comment I was responding to was arguing. I alluded to this in my second paragraph in my comment, but I guess I could have been more explicit.

YouTube, for example. I haven’t done a rigorous test and looked at the timings. But I disabled HTTP/3 in my Safari settings just now and browsed around YouTube in Private mode. Then I did the same with HTTP/3 enabled. It was at least 3x faster at initial page draws with HTTP/3. I did this test just now on weak WiFi.

MeetWiv: A Social Network for Business Travelers
Hi everyone,

I'm excited to introduce MeetWiv, a new social network specifically designed for business travelers. Whether you're on a layover, attending a conference, or just in town for meetings, MeetWiv makes it easy for you to connect with other professionals in your industry.

With MeetWiv, you can:

* See a live feed of other professionals' business trips, so you can easily find people who are in the same city as you.

* Share your business travel experiences with others.

* Search for flights by date range, free text, or industry.

* Create events like leisure, sports, or whatever the user wants to mingle with others.

* Use AI matchmaking to match users with other users who are coming to your city or country, or who are flying to the same destination as you and might be of interest to you.

MeetWiv is still in alpha.

I'd love to hear your feedback on MeetWiv. What do you think of the idea? What features would you like to see?

I'm talking about WebXR, which is for some reason the name of the standard developed by W3C.

"As such it may seem like WebXR and OpenXR have a relationship like WebGL and OpenGL, where the web API is a near 1:1 mapping of the native API. This is not the case with WebXR and OpenXR, as they are distinct APIs being developed by different standards bodies."

from https://github.com/immersive-web/webxr/blob/master/explainer...
A lot of people expect a stateful firewall blocking incoming connections on their local network. Applying the same NAT system that is used for IPv4 to IPv6 is probably the best way to get this layer of security.

Now in theory most devices should be safe to connect to the internet. But how many Internet of Shit devices are there in the average household that probably shouldn't be trusted? Crappy security cameras with 10 year old firmware written by the lowest bidder as well as "smart" thermostats that probably aren't much better.

So maybe keeping the stateful firewall by default is the best option.
In Sweden, Norway and Finland, information about every individual's income is publicly accessible. I kinda wish Denmark would do the same (where I’m located).
2004, far less Internet connectivity to sustain awareness and outrage, and less impact.

Our lives weren't nearly as completely mediated by online services.

"Total Information Awareness" made a splash in the news around 2004 also, but then faded.

Also, Bush's team was busy outraging everyone so many other ways, like blowing up Iraq for oil money, and making up nonsense legal defenses for kidnapping and physical torture of civilians.
Actually you achieve a kind of financial stability in the above example if each older generation relinquishes their accumulated wealth to the younger generation as a 2 to 1 rate.

i.e. 2 Boomers give up their wealth to 1 Millennial for services rendered.

The "haves" just don't like how the supply and demand equation is swinging back in favor of the "have not but can still work".

As for the services rendered in return, well, supply side constraints dictate you settle for what's available ... that's all there is.
> November 22, 1963. [3]. And it's difficult to imagine why anybody might not think everything wasn't on the up and up there. I mean it's only been 60 years, and only 3% of the records remain classified.

Not bad, but the Jack The Ripper files, from 1888, are still sealed 135 years later. Conspiracy theorists might have a field day with that, but it's done only to protect the identities of informants.
Well poop, hope that gets resolved fast. I guess OpenAI can't hire compute platform engineers fast enough!
That's exactly what we do: submitting a search/filter form through a POST request which creates a record in the database representing the search/filter criteria and then redirects to the same endpoint with the ID of that record. The endpoint looks for the ID in the query, attempts to load the same record, and if found, executes and returns the search results.

It works very well, is completely transparent to the end user, has automatic query logging, and provides a clean URL that can be easily shared.
I use Makefiles for managing multiple venvs for various jobs. For example running test and running in production have different requirements (no testing libraries). Or an environment for static analysis tools.
Of course not, the error-codes should remain the same standard ones as always. I'm saying there are more numbers than those, which could be used for some as yet unidentified purpose.

Perhaps a unique status-code of a server could identify things like the version of content served by it.

Well, if you have idiotic parents who are either greedy, emotionally crippled or compensating something broken in their lives to stream their lives from A to Z, you are in a world of pain and this is one way it can manifest.

Don’t get the Tesla power wall, it’s more locked down than anything else in the market. Get a system you control with an API you can access, not proprietary crap.

Like locked down OSes and hardware, locked down distributed energy resources will be the next place where you’ll lose your access to your devices due to corporate greed. The data and API access for DERs are like GOLD today. If you don’t control them, someone else will, and poorly. No company I’ve seen today is competent enough to scale to what’s going to be needed in the future. They’re all focused on cloud stuff, but at the scale energy works at and the compute necessary to efficiently use future energy systems, we’re going to need to switch to a distributed system on the edge, at the generation and load sites.

Edit: I’m in HN slow mode for some reason, likely that the fascists aren’t my fan today and have been flagging all my comments, so here’s my reply:

Sorry, no, but I mostly deal with commercial products. I know of the power wall only because my friend got them and they kinda suck. Tesla sometimes fucks up control, too, draining the battery for their own use to make money on their VPP. I suggest asking directly to the sales people if you will have full, free access to your telemetry in bulk to download and that you have API access to the whole system. Those are the two most important factors.
Azure and AWS have so much money coming in from the government that I doubt either company is going to find anything but jelly in their backbones when it comes to government demands for data.
I assume that cars are not seen as a taxable benefit in Belgium?
Yes, this exactly. That's why we didn't go with chat for our UX here, and for future product areas we likely won't either. We already have good UX for our kind of product and haven't seen much feedback or convinced via some other means that adding chat would help more than it would hurt.
Extreme heat events tend to go hand in hand with great solar yields. So actually building some solar power plants would be a sensible thing to do.

But that would probably need some involvement from public sector and US public sector has been systematically dismantled since Reagan at least.

I am not saying it's not happening elsewhere, but I sure am glad that it's not going to be me and my family who's gonna eventually reclaim the public sector at the cost of watering the democracy tree.

Sorry for the irony. Have a nice day from EU.
This sounds promising as a lot of use cases are shoe horned into the current verbs.
A bit surprised EVALUATE isn't discussed as a name since it would make sense both for search queries and other "get using body" scenarios.
Just by looking at the map there might be some correlation with vaccination rate.
I think because one day everyone woke up and heard about PRISM, including a lot of the tech companies, which had to go into damage control to deny their involvement. It was big news with brands that every American was familiar with.

This is just continuing to move the question into new language that's not any less obtuse; if the game comes on a cartridge and I need to copy it onto a computer to put in an emulator, and the game's loading screen tells me not to, how is this not "a process" that doesn't have "the authority of the copyright owner" even if it's not encrypted in any way? Even more preposterously, if the game tells me I can only play on Tuesdays, and when it boots up it gives me a prompt saying "press A to continue if it's Tuesday, but if it's not, shut down the console and wait until Tuesday", and I ignore that and press A on Wednesday, how am I not performing a process (pressing A) without the authority of the copyright owner (who only gave me permission on Tuesdays)?
Can you give some examples?

From my quick skim of the site, it was unclear to me the timing of the queue. Do projects sit in there for 90 days or three years before approval?

Once approved, the project still has to be built, correct? Is there a resource that lists plants which are actively expanding? That seems like a more useful short term metric to understand new capacity, because items in the queue may never be constructed.
Yes he is guaranteed to have access to some case library software.

Why he didn't verify the existence of these cases spit out by a tool he used for the first time is beyond me. It would have taken him a few minutes at most to discover the fake ones and skimming the bogus references (assuming some legal competence)

I watched a random segment from Stalker, the embedded movie, and at 15:10 the woman gets in the car and the subtitles say "Come with me", while the character clearly says "Go!". Very confusing. The auto-generated subtitles got this one word right but have other gaps. So warning if you're gonna watch these that the subtitles might not be perfect.
I commented because you reminded me of a similar experience I had.

Repeating from another subthread: if the game tells me I can only play on Tuesdays, and when it boots up it gives me a prompt saying "press A to continue if it's Tuesday, but if it's not, shut down the console and wait until Tuesday", and I ignore that and press A on Wednesday, how am I not bypassing a technical measure (requiring an input electronically to the console) without the authority of the copyright owner (who only gave me permission do to so on Tuesdays)?
Microsoft is also responsible for the Orwellian (and as far as I know still secret/closed source) PhotoDNA, which is an incredible tool for censorship and surveillance.

Disclaimer : I didn't try Ocaml (weird numeric operators turned me off of it a decade ago) but I did use F# which is supposedly similar.

But I don't know what you mean by imperative - for loops and stuff ? Most languages these days support functional programming concepts. Unless you're coming from C it shouldn't be that groundbreaking.

Note that Ocaml isn't lazy by default like Haskell - now that makes things... interesting I guess.
