Yup, it was solid but not as good as AWS out of the box. IIRC preprocessing the image did help, but I didn't have enough time to spend on fleshing that out for an MVP. (I gave up on the project when I realised that recently introduced protection of personal information laws in my country would have made this project too risky to continue work on. The intention was to automatically extract spending habits from receipts to improve personal finance management.)
Yes, the potential for abuse is quite a lot... from the rather harmless Torrent user up to running C&C servers for botnets.

Designed gigabit Ethernet board and one with FPGA+DDR3 using KiCad 5 and it was ok. Don’t see benefit in OrCAD or Altium here. Maybe for 60 GHz there might be some benefit. Bet that’s not my working frequency range.
I don't even think that this person should be disagreeing with the Dawkins quote, because to the extent that I can find a thesis, Dawkins' blind robot vehicles support it.

If you realize that "we" are observers of our thoughts, and not necessarily thinkers, it's weird to overvalue the worth of introspection. Introspection is a liar. It seems like the beginning of this thing is proposing some sort of therapeutic dualism, where you can have a thought that you object to (why do you object to it?), and assign that thought to your body through another thought (the realization that the thought is not me), and peacefully live thought-free. Now it's not a mind-body dualism, but a thought-metathought dualism that is even less likely.

The reason these people were and are great thinkers is because of their comfort in abstraction and objectivity, and their disdain for introspection. You can't transcend thinking by thinking harder.

Leaded gasoline and asbestos weren't studied before introduction. This has been.
I have a 3-story house in the US Northeast. The AC that cools the 2nd and 3rd floor broke. instead of paying to replace it, I'm trying to use passive cooling techniques. The house was built in 1870, before ACs. I suspect the original residents had techniques for keeping it cool. For example, I suspect they had awnings on every window. They kept the windows open on the top floor to create cross winds that pushes the accumulated hot air out of the house. And I suspect they had large trees on the property to create shade and cool the air.

I'm slowly replicating these techniques plus some fans to help push hot air out, including a gabel fan in the attic. I started getting awnings, but not yet on every window, they definitely help. Started planting trees around the property and around the house to create shade. I did get two window ACs, one on 2 ND and one on the 3rd floor, to help when it gets to high 80's and above. I want to see how far I can take this. I'm definitely going with the approach of having more air flow vs. other passive techniques that lock in the air, e.g. closed attics.
Good game, but I found it a bit unforgiving when slightly off line.

ShutterEncoder: Open-Source Video Editor for Linux/Mac/Windows
I was looking for a GUI for FFMPEG that'd let me cut videos easily, and this came up. IMO This is exceptional software, it's very easy to use for novices and has a lot of useful features.

It's open source: https://github.com/paulpacifico/shutter-encoder
> In my opinion, that also invalidates their claim that Altium is the most commonly used PCB design software, because there likely are 100x more hobbyists using KiCad than people able to spend $10k on a hobby.

I guess that depends whether you look at per-user or per-PCB basis
I think there is a very important distinction to be made. An individual doctor-patient relationship may not be concerned with systemic issues, but that doesn’t mean the overall healthcare system ignores systemic issues. If a patient goes in for care, they deserve to have their symptoms and underlying disease treated, irrespective of the physicians ability to make systemic change.

However, I will say some healthcare systems do try to get to the root causes. Once upon a time, I worked for a healthcare system in a “process engineer” role, for a lack of a better term. There was a team of us, and the whole point was to take a systemic look at healthcare outcomes so we could mitigate root causes that led to less than optimal patient outcomes/quality of care.
Using your analogy, it's more like saying that we know water above 40 degrees will be progressively more likely to cause a burn, so the limit of average heating of a cellphone is 20 degrees.

No, Godwin's. Whenever I end up reading YouTube comments I'm shocked at how quickly seemingly well intentioned replies end up in 50+ comment flame wars.
All that is true, but also besides the point.

The point is, that since we cannot use any kind of known finetuning to _eliminate_ even this obvious security problem (making it somewhat less likely is not a solution), in my opinion fine tuning is not markedly improving the AIs capabilities in the sense of "improvement" that AI doomsday scenarios would require.
Not to mention there's a lot of money behind the real causes

After the big UI change that put everything in one window instead of million small ones I don't really have problems with GIMP UI.
In C++ projects you see the verbose version a lot, because it's much faster to set a breakpoint on a statement than on a conditional expression. It's really annoying to repeatedly stop debugging, add the redundant return statements, and sit through a recompile cycle just because `return expr` looks nicer than `if (expr) return true else return false`.
"AGI" is such a ridiculous use of language.

AGI is just the old "strong AI" that is just the old "AI", all that we never bothered to precisely define.

I just can't understand how we can talk about language models all day without understanding the most basic idea of Wittgenstein in that sloppy use of language leads to philosophical problems and misunderstandings. chatGPT can easily teach people this too:

"Philosophical problems often arise when words are taken from one language game and used in another without an understanding of how the change in context alters their meaning. For example, words like "mind," "knowledge," "belief," and "truth" are used in everyday language games with certain meanings, but when they are transplanted into philosophical discussions without adjusting for the change in context, misunderstandings and confusions occur.

Thank you for clarifying, yes I should have mentioned that the multiplayer / vs AI is free, but there's paid content as well (single player campaigns, unit/building skins, etc).

To me the writing of the Single Player campaigns was grating ("bout time we kick this revolution into overdrive", rawr!) but the gameplay was good, so no hard complains. I liked the unit variety on the Protoss and Zerg campaigns compared to the WoL "buy upgrades and mercenaries" approach.

Thanks for considering!
I agree that compiling to machine code is super satisfying, but there's a lot of upfront work you have to do before you can run your first "hello world": architectures, calling conventions, object file formats, linking.

That's why I no longer object to compiler tutorials stopping at assembly or even C, as long as the phases not present in interpreter tutorials like Bob Nystrom's brilliant one are non-trivial: type checking, optimizations, lowering.

Show HN: Prototyping Games and Experiences with ChatGPT
Hey everyone,

ChatGPT recently added a very small but powerful feature - the ability to share your chats!

I think it’s a great way to create prototypes and share them, here are a couple of examples:

First, [a small talk simulator](https://chat.openai.com/share/1329d8ec-5141-45f9-a2c2-842d4bad7bcc) a game to help you improve your social skills.

Second, [a shark tank simulator](https://chat.openai.com/share/48155efe-101b-4662-b41e-c13aa909f017), see if your idea and pitch can get a deal on ABCs hit show! [Here’s my pitch](https://chat.openai.com/share/ded77bd3-f21c-41c9-a0af-118145fd6599) if you want to see an example of how it plays out.

I’m hoping to see more stuff like this very soon, less prompt guides, and more interactive shared chat sessions!

I always question how long an article should be, but then I reliase... Even if 30 mins is too much, if it saves you much more time googling around, it is worth it.

I want my articles to be used as future references, to be comprehensive and self-contained. I want them to be useful both to the complete beginner and to the person who already know most of the stuff.

After gathering some feedback I am now considering extending it to include the difference between structural recursion and generative recursion and differences between memoization and Dynamic Programming.
The big problem is the peaky-ness of the current renewables.

I noticed this with tutorials. “Omg I’ve been struggling forever with this and this is the best explanation”. Then turns out to be a very shallow overview of the topic that doesn’t actually explain anything and it’s not even a tutorial.
I love your comment. 71 years is less than the age of my mother. I for one expect the world to change a lot more in the coming 30 years than in the last 30 years. In fact, I expect that the speed of change will be so high that it will lead to widespread social unrest, even (or particularly) in the West. But there are incredibly good things coming, if we are prepared and push for them a little bit.

Ah, and our metaphysics, social workings and culture are completely screwed for what is coming, and they are going to screw us good in turn.
Yes I’m thinking in terms of different frames of reference.

Imagine that you’re a tiny ant that lives on the large circle. When you push the small circle around the large circle you will see it make four rotations before you get back to the starting point. This is the local frame of reference.

Now imagine you’re a giant living in the space with the circles. You see the small circle do five full rotations. Four are the same that the ant sees but you also see the ant itself do one rotation simultaneously as it walks along the large circle making five in total.

It would be more accurate to say that you have 4 local rotations and that the local frame rotates one full turn in the global frame.

Does this make sense to someone with a high-school level of geometry knowledge? Not as I wrote it I initially (but there was no such goal). The analogy with the giant and the ant together with some nice illustrations maybe?

I'm not sure it was wise, but "cheapened out" doesn't seem right either. The C64 disk drives have their own 1MHZ 6502 CPU inside them, so they have roughly the same amount of CPU as the C64 itself.
Ask HN: What are the most reliable tech sites in east and south Asia?
Almost all of my tech news comes via HN, SubStack, Twitter and Reddit, but they only occasionally cite blogs or reports from China, Japan, South Korea or India - countries where a significant proportion of technology is built, designed, or supported from.

While there is a lot of tech news related to what is going on in those countries (often for the wrong reasons), it’s hard to gage what the tech ecosystem is up to without knowing where to look.

Language barriers aside (which are becoming less of an issue anyway), where would one go for reliable and direct news around semiconductor developments in Taiwan, or the weird products that emerge out of Shenzhen through AliExpress?

Is there an HN of India? Or Indonesia?

> By and large, the reason our customers are on campus is to credibly show, or “signal,” their intelligence, work ethic, and sheer conformity.

Ugh. This sentence stopped me dead in my tracks. The corporatization of education is killing any unique purpose it used to have. In particular, thinking of students as customers gives them a sense of entitlement that they should be able to "talk to the manager" if they don't get the outcome they want. It doesn't help that tuition has reached such heights that it's hard to argue that they're wrong.

I think you're really missing the forest for the trees.

Schools aren't the solution to the problem you're describing (children with bad homes) and was a problem before COVID.

Bigger picture is that it is better to keep a larger portion of the population from dying or developing long term complications than slightly (very) protect a few children that are already being abused.

If you're really going to stand by your position then I suggest a reasonable compromise and that is expanding access to licensed professional social workers and community health programs that are there to help parents and children succeed in life.
Since we are talking about cloning, a good example is the clone brush / stamp. In Photoshop it’s it’s own tool. In Krita (and perhaps GIMP?), it’s just another brush you have to dig for and find, and adjusting the clone settings is very annoying.

This is a common occurrence, where you will google for “where is X in Krita / GIMP”, where X is a very regular tool that for some opaque reason has been stuffed away in a very strange place. Photoshop stores their glassware in the cupboard? We better keep it in the fridge!

I hope that at some point Krita or GIMP or maybe even a unified Paint.net+Pinta gets a Blender moment, where a few bigger companies are tired of paying gobs of money to (mainly) Adobe and start to pay for development.
