You’ll have hook it up to the network at some point. And then you’ll want to add IO.

If page render takes 100ms you’d better have some pretty complex animations. Data and bandwidth should be at least 80% of your web app speed, and you should work on optimizing the other 15% that is server side CPU bound.

I think one of the biggest problems with Jira is that it's taken the approach of so many other "Enterprise" products made by talentless teams: they just add all functionality into the app that anyone ever asks for.

The result is that for some of the companies I've worked for, each team's tickets have different but very similar "workflows" using custom state labels. In some projects when I go to close a ticket, it offers me approximately 30 different semantics which which to close the ticket. These include things like both "Done", and "Completed". What the fuck is the difference between "Done" and "Completed"? I do not know or care whether it is Jira that has populated this dropdown with such embarrassingly unintelligent crap or my company: if the latter then Jira should have neither encouraged nor even made it possible.
It's a source of truth about what code has been written.
I see a lot of people recommending specific forms of dance. I’m gonna be a bit more broad and say “social dancing” overall. Specific dance recommendations can lead people to give up quickly when running into base issues.

Swing dancing will most likely appeal to the typical HN reader but there are a variety of dances out there. Dances like salsa and bachata are vastly larger than most other social dances but they have no appeal to me. (Machismo, Latin culture, somewhat exclusionary as a whole, not much actual socializing) Same for Argentine Tango. (Old people mostly, very snobby, tends to be expensive, feels like the nimby wine snobs dance due to the typical goer) There’s lots of other dances - not gonna bother describing each. But my point is - each has a distinct culture and community (or lack thereof) associated with them. If one doesn’t hit your fancy - I’d recommend exploring others. It might not be that dancing ain’t your thing - it might be that particular dance ain’t your thing.

Social dance overall is quite popular with the white collar crowd and especially so with people in tech. That is - it’s popular with the men. There’s more variance on the other side. Don’t expect to meet your future wife at a social dance either - the ratios are quite lopsided when it comes to single men:women. It’s usually relatively even men:women but it’s heavily single men and many women in relationships. Many women go purely for the love of dance (and attention) but very few men go for purely the love of the dance.
To me, it feels like it's started giving superficial responses and encouraging follow-up elsewhere -- I wouldn't be surprized if its prompt has changed to something to that effect.

Before, if I had an issue with a library or debugging issue, it would try to be helpful and walk me through potential issues, and ask me to 'let it know' if it worked or not. Now it will try to superficially diagnose the problem and then ask me to check the online community for help or continuously refer me to the maintainers rather than trying to figure it out.

Similarly, I had been using it to help me think through problems and issues from different perspectives (both business and personal) and it would take me in-depth through these. Now, again, it gives superficial answers and encourages going to external sources.

I think if you keep pressing in the right ways it'll eventually give in and help you as it did before, but I guess this will take quite a bit of prompting.

F# always struck me as one of the most terribly underrated languages. I'm a lover of MLs in general, but F# lands on one of the sweet spots in PL space with ample expressive power without being prone to floating off into abstraction orbit ("pragmatic functional" is the term I believe). It is basically feature complete to boot.
Right, so perhaps the answer to that is not to make your software "Enterprise". There are a lot of idiots in management; do not give them what they ask for if you want your product to retain any vestiges of quality.

> We found a way: nuclear fission reactors.

Nope. I'm talking about efficient methods in training, inferencing and fine-tuning these AI models that doesn't require lots of data centers, TPUs, GPUs, etc. You're talking about something else.

Petrol and diesel cars are already burning the planet, but the main difference is, that there are efficient alternatives available today like electric cars to use instead.

AI (Deep learning) however, does not have any viable and efficient methods in training, fine-turning these AI models, at all [0] [1] and wastes a tremendous amount of resources, all to keep up with scalability.

So that problem is still NOT solved after a decade of using GPUs, the wastage is getting worse.

This is a pretty common topic now on the GPTPro subreddit.

I feel the same way. It feels…lazy now.
In my head the way I differentiate "supercomputers" (national labs) and "warehouse-scale computers" (google/amazon/azure) is:

1. workload
for national labs this is mostly sparse fp64 in my understanding, for warehouse-scale computing is lots of integer work, highly branchy, lots of pointer chasing, stuff like that.

2. latency/reliability vs throughput
warehouse-scale computing jobs often run at awful utilization, in the 5-20% range depending on how you measure, in order to respond to shocks of various kinds and provide nice abstractions for developers. fundamentally these systems are used live by humans and human time is very valuable so making sure it stays up always and returns quickly is paramount. In my understanding supercomputing workloads are much more throughput-oriented, where you need to do an enormous amount of computation to get some answer but it doesn't much matter whether the answer comes in one week or two weeks.

3. interconnect
warehouse-scale computing workloads are mostly fairly separable and the place where different requests become intertangled is in the database. In the supercomputing world, in my understanding, there are often significant interconnect needs all the time, so extremely high performance networking is emphasized.
That requires a lot more infrastructure than a hole in the ground.
Asking facts from a generative AI is folly.
More specifically it’s WHIP publishing support, not full WebRTC.

WHIP stands for WebRTC-HTTP Ingestion Protocol. It’s “a simple HTTP-based protocol that will allow WebRTC-based ingestion of content into streaming services and/or CDNs.”
I updated the comment to reflect that. Certainly the signal is stronger because you’re amortizing away the surprise factor of the change, and at least it’s a consistent UX, but the UX tradeoff in the worst case is that experiment-group users get a broken product with no notice or escape hatch. Unless you’re being very careful, meticulous, and transparent it’s just not acceptable if you’re a paying customer.
The universe is big, but we're only observing a miniscule fraction of it, especially at the level of individual star systems.

> Even if you dislike crypto, is this comparison really helpful?

AFAICT the comparison is only made because, faced with a decade and a bit of failure to deliver, cryptocurrency and blockchain proponents need an argument as to why it's still going to be HUGE, and is still a case of "just you wait, you'll see", rather than admitting it's not looking very hopeful.
Though I didn’t become a system engineer I was a part system admin earlier when I was about to start my professional career. The job was typical stuff, installing and maintaining DNS service, mail service, ensuring backups are done, and couple of times doing recovery etc. Along side I would troubleshoot issues like machine not being able to get onto LAN.

It was really fantastic learning wise. I really got to see how things are implemented. I use those learnings even to this day. When a junior full stack developer runs into system level issues I often times see them go completely blank and I then gleefully roll up my sleeves and put on my susadmin hat, it’s quite fun.

I thought SK Hynix was the big producer of HBM? But that could be out of date.
Sure. I recommend reading superintelligence by Nick Bostrom.

But I think the key failure here, in your thinking, is that you can't conceive of something, and that therefore something can't happen, and you're doing that in the context of things that are smarter than you. You being able to conceive of it is simply not required for it to happen.

Also, Colossus: The Forbin Project was a great movie from 1970 on this subject. Spoilers: an AI takes control of the nuclear arsenal and then threatens humans with extinction if they do not serve it. The humans do serve it, of course, because the humans in charge don't want to die, and are entirely fine with enslaving the rest of us.

The book superintelligence by Nick Bostrom gets into the fine details of all the different ways an AI would escape, why it would escape, and why it wouldn't take a chance with a species that murders its own kind for fun and profit.
I tried setting this up on my homelab via docker. Not only did it take ages to build, I found it really difficult to run it behind an already configured nginx instance, it seemed set on running its own one. There's an open ticket on the repo to improved the docker setup experience, I'll definitely be checking this out in a few months once its all be streamlined.
One does not need to be have super-human capabilities to foresee potential risks of the technology one is an expert in.

Yes, the current version of AI is not capable of large scale harm by itself yet, but the plausible trajectory is worth warning about. Gordon Moore did make fairly accurate predictions after all.
It’s go-to tactic now if I ask it to go over any piece of code is to give a generic overview. Earlier, it would section out the code into chunks and go through each one individually.

You realize every single thing that dynamically-typed languages can do with data types, statically-typed languages can do too? Except when it matters, they can also choose to do things dynamically-typed languages can't.

Lots of people assume static typing means creating domain types for the semantics of every single thing, and then complain that those types contain far more information than they need. Well, stop doing that. Create types that actually contain the information you need. Or use the existing ones. If you're deserializing JSON data, it turns out that the deserialization library already has a type for arbitrary JSON. Just use it, if all you're doing is translating that data to another format. Saying "this data is JSON I didn't bother to understand the internal content of" is a perfectly fine level to work at.

Stop inventing work for yourself.

That's the saddest part about people who moved to SF for tech. They moved here, interacted with their coworkers, who are tech workers, they found roommates through their company, so their roommates are also tech workers, and so all their friends are also tech workers, all the people at parties they go to are tech workers. So it's no surprise all they know of San Francisco is tech. There's more to San Francisco than tech, but if that's all someone ever sees of the city, it's no wonder they drew those conclusions!

Just like I'm glad the people who hated the city left because Covid finally gave them an excuse, I'm also glad the people that failed to see the beautiful wonderful city underneath the moneied veneer of tech are gone as well. It saddens me that the two cities didn't mange to meet and melt in America's mixing pot, but, ah, that's just the way the cookie crumbles.

I would love for Rust to take over C/C++, but in embedded it's still got a while to go, and it's not even really Rust's fault per se. It's the tooling and third party driver problem that's the real issue. It's getting there, sure, but it's getting there by rebuilding the world, which is... like I said, it's a while away, IMO.
Semantics of how this works aside, take a moment to appreciate how easy it is to remap the variable “zombie” to “human” in a prompt without the model altering its behavior. It instantly makes you realize the immensity of the AI safety & alignment problem.
I run a decently large zfs setup (in the single digit petabyte range) and I have never actually had a spinning disk trigger a zfs checksum issue that wasn't shortly followed up by the disk failing completely in the next week or so. And this is multiple years of this pattern.

While it has to happen occasionally, it does seem to be a pretty rare event in my experience. Drive actually failing are way more likely to happen it seems.

I'm not convinced by your 1st citation. How does a private sale create a new obligation for Nikon, who was not involved in the transaction? And suppose the sale was intra-EU - am I to believe it is simply illegal to sell used goods in the EU if one is unable to provide warranty for them? Since every sale creates a new 1-year warranty obligation.

Or conversely, that each subsequent sale creates a new 1-year warranty obligation for the manufacturer, that was not involved with the sale, regardless of how old the item is?

And why would it be any of the manufacturer's business whether 2nd-hand sellers don't provide warranty? Since when are they in the business of privately enforcing consumer protections? Or legally compelled to do so.

As for the trademark exhaustion, presumably it refers to my claim that the transaction is "perfectly legitimate", even over the trademark-holder's objection. I stand by "legitimate", but concede that it may not be "legal". However, it is hard for me to express how vile and disgusting such a law is, effectively allowing trade between countries only for corporations, and using trademarks to isolate consumers. As another comment stated, they want to take advantage of price differences for manufacturing, but then prevent consumers from using those differences when buying. Legal, but not remotely legitimate, and a clear sign of the capture of the legislature by corporate interests.

And none of what you cited shows any kind of liability for a company arising from not policing their consumers.

>No.

Ok but why?

>You don't. You keep going straight, space is deformed by gravity.

Yeah, and if gravity weren't deforming the space, objects otherwise in orbit would move differently. That's just changing the mechanics (presumably in an attempt to appear more knowledgeable?) to avoid the question of why two wildly different scenarios (no forces vs. offsetting forces) are the exact same.

>But even if you look at it like in classical mechanics, the effect is applied uniformly to every particle of your body, so it makes no difference.

Again, my question is why in your model is the uniform application of a force the same as no application of a force?

>Ask yourself this: how do you feel gravity right now?

You don't have a sense for your own weight? I do and I don't know how to describe that feeling beyond that.

If I were in a true extremely low gravity situation (like deep space) I would feel differently.
Perf/$ where $ is what it cost _them_ , not $ they're ready to sell to others as a product. Cloud margins in the high two-digit percents are typical, and I'd imagine even higher for very specialized products in high-demand from deep-pocketed customers.
I assume you're talking about ChatGPT and not GPT-4? You can craft your own prompt when calling GPT4 over API. Don't blame you though, the OP is also not clear if they are comparing Chat GPT powered by GPT3.5 or 4, or the models themselves.
> One of the key factors to Silicon Valley's success has been a lack of non-competes.

Yes and I think that was a big factor when tech was made by "hackers" who had an open disdain for the rules. I think that lately even an unenforceable noncompete is enough to scare people away from competing directly with a former employer. And let's not forget the infamous Meta/Oculus fiasco (trade secrets issue, but close enough).
FWIW, I do think they might have changed things very recently--but only for some legal argument (maybe as a result of Corellium...) as opposed to any technical one--but they really did just leave every single variant of every single update on their server... I even made a tool for jailbroken iOS devices that would get the original update files from Apple's servers and implemented exactly this idea: it would checksum every file against the copy from the bill of materials in the update and was able to download only the files that were different (by carving them out of the remote zip file using HTTP Range requests).

There's no doubt that it's gotten a lot worse on coding, I've been using this benchmark on each new version of GPT-4 "Write a tiptap extension that toggles classes" and so far it's gotten it right every time, but not any more, now it hallucinates a simplified solution that don't even use the tiptap api any more. It's also 200% more verbose in explaining it's reasoning, even if that reasoning makes no sense whatsoever - it's like it's gotten more apologetic and generic.

The answer is the same on GPT plus and API with GPT-4, even with "developer" role.
> Hey don't be mad at me, I'm not the one who makes these rules.

Which rules? There is no law forcing Nikon to act this way. They do it purely for profit. Suggestions that they'd be somehow liable if they don't police their consumers are beyond tenuous.
I wonder where at Stanford this was worked on? Certainly not the Computer Science Department (source: me).
