Until we normalize working for a company until we’re ready to retire, I don’t even see that as an option. What am I gonna do 3-4 years later? That’s why I won’t leave the city, because I know when it’s time to look again there are plenty of jobs close by and I won’t have to uproot the whole family.
Real-Time ML Models with Serverless AWS
I wrote the blog post above based on the learnings I had when creating a MLOps solution using AWS Lambda for machine learning model deployment.

Tl;dr: The post shows how to deploy a scikit-learn model pickle using Lambda and how to create a POST endpoint with API gateway.

Any feedback is welcome!
Hello, Benedikt from Cloudflare and the Turnstile Team here.
Thanks you so much for the report. We looked into this report and identified that there was some false positive and cleared the signal. We have investigated this report and the issue should be fixed. Please reach out to me benedikt@cloudflare.com or at our Cloudflare Turnstile Discord, if you are still encountering problems.
I see that the CERT-Poland's blocklist was used to test the resolvers. I wonder what kind of results you'd see if you used other, more popular datasets such as Phishtank, OpenPhish, and abuse.ch lists.
Because this is a free land. If you're proposing to take something that is currently legal, and make it illegal, the burden of proof is on you. It's not on us to prove why it should still be legal.

> Wouldn't most people be better off if they must buy a condo/house instead?

1) Some would; some wouldn't. Let's say I know I'm going to move in a year. Great, I sign a one year lease; when it's over I just walk away. But if I have to buy instead, I have to sell at the end of the year, which takes more time and effort (and an unpredictable amount of time), and which costs me 6% of the price of the house.

2) "They'd be better off" (economically) is not grounds to force them, even if true.

If he's outside the US and the country he is in had an extradition treaty with the US, but has no comparable law in the books, wouldn't that impede extradition?
Dude, there are whole countries where the Goverment just stopped everyone from getting their money out of the Bank. Greek for example, just a few years ago. It's not something very rare nor do you have to be in a third world country.

“Cryptocurrencies can work, we’ve just never had a properly decentralized system yet” is becoming the “Communism can work, we just haven’t really tried it yet”.

This is yet another example of the crypto boom going bust, which has been a series of unregulated and utterly opaque exchanges collapsing. Over and over again, the entire ecosystem has been snake oil salesmen, who are selling snake oil to other snake oil salesmen.

And the crypto purists will cry “oh, but Bitcoin, it would work if we all held dear to the purity of the concept and kept our relevant info in lockboxes in our panic rooms!” And the cynical, but also correct, among us will mutter “well that’s cool, but no normal human is going to do that, and the valuation of whole thing is based on mass uptake, and that’s contingent on having middlemen do a lot of the ugly gruntwork, because otherwise it’s far too difficult for normal users to ever bother with.” And those middlemen are, again, invariably, snake oil salemen who will cut and run.
The more ChatGPT is just a remembering of its content, the better it is. In this case it had clearly remembered just that API (obscure educational API) -- with weird parameter key dictionaries etc. that arent in anyway some Intelligent Generalisation (oh wow! everyone fund this!!11!)

Insofar as it isn't just a regurgitation of "the better ebooks, blogs and docs", the worse it is.

This is why, when prompting ChatGPT, i'm more often aiming to have it use examples (etc.) that have a high likelyhood of exact data in its training set.

Consider eg., the prompt, "write tic-tac-toe in javascript using html and canvas" to "write duck hunt in javascript using html and canvas"

The latter is extremely hard to get out of it, with many prompts -- the former, immediate and perfect.

Why? because there's many examples of tic-tac-toe.
Your product looks neat but I think you're a few years too late, for most folks the Kubernetes platform is kind of a done deal. Couple of questions:

- Who is your target customer?

- How does it compare to OpenShift?

- Can you bring your own Kubernetes provider?

- You have nothing on your page that would make me trust you enough to give you the level of access you need to deploy. Are you pursuing any kind of partnerships with AWS or security audits?

Ask HN: Documented remote startup success story?
Hi,

My question: is there an available documented success story where their founders were remotely located, not physically cloistered on their way to "success?"

Context: Paul Graham is known for reflecting on ycomb funding success stories, whether they go public or on an important anniversary. In many cases, pictures are shared where people are cloistered physically together, for example, AirBnb went IPO (cannot find the thread, sorry). This feels like a common occurrence in literature, where pictures of simple togetherness/grit are shared when the final "release" occurs.

I m looking for any shared remote example - partially or moderately successful (revenue, engagement, etc.). I assume that it has yet to happen at an IPO scale like Airbnb (yet).
I've had pretty good experiences with https://yacht.sh/, which only does docker containers.
Ehh, subs aren't equal, and there are a notable amount of top 1% subs here that will have much bigger effect than others.
with Oauth2, the API credentials don't give you access to other users' accounts or data or anything of that sort - so the only problem with the client id/secret being in the client is malicious people pulling it and abusing the service while using those API credentials. In general this hasn't been a problem, but once it costs (for example) Apollo $x per million API calls, it could be a money drain, and it could cause headache for the service that now has to try to do abuse prevention via IP reputation / other tracking techniques.

And proxying api calls isn't an end-all solution. This introduces a large burden for the developer to not just run a scalable proxy for the API calls, but also must introduce and manage some abuse prevention system, maybe with their own user account system with reputation ratings based on number of times they've hit a rate limit or how many different subreddits they try to access every day.

It also is generally not good for users to have to deal with a proxy like this, since it means the app developer has the ability to log all of their users' usage, and could be compelled by law enforcement / courts to hand over user PII or activity logs.
Oh c'mon... you know what I'm talking about, I'm not talking about theory and more theory, I'm talking about actual research done on top of an LLM, giving it the apparent freedom to go rogue and see what tries to do then. Specifically on top of OpenAI's GPT, as they the ones carrying this message along the world. This is the type of research I'm talking about. I saw Altman's presentation to the US congress and not a word, about any study, was said.

"Moderation" is a terrible excuse used by the corporate types as a reason to stick in their safe walled gardens.

We had moderation on Usenet. It was simple, but damn, did it work. We had plonka lists (client selected ignored users), keyword scoring, server level scoring, some anti-spam. There was EARLY work in Bayesian filters built in to clients, but was too late for the "big event". (When ISP's everywhere killed Usenet servers, for what is pretty surely assumed as anti-piracy.)

But lets look corporate moderation. It's done in secret, with vague rules that may or may not be stated, and by content moderation farms that use and abuse people. https://www.wired.co.uk/article/facebook-content-moderators-... . Or worse yet, you fool people in faux-ownership (reddit) and get them to do your moderation for you. Well, that is unless you do a bad job and get your subreddit banned for "low/no moderation".

I'd much rather see everything, and craft my own blocklists as I see fit. You know, just like Mastodon. Sure, there's some fediblocks at admin-level over pervasive content from a single server. But aside admin tasks, its pretty damn sweet. And it's loads better than the shit that happens over on Twitter, Reddit, or Facebook.
Telling people to stop using unsafe is much easier than telling people to not have undefined behaviour.

C developers like telling themselves that only people with bounded rationality make security critical mistakes. All the skilled C developers have ascended beyond the mortal realm and would never let themselves be chained up with crutches for the weak like affine types or overflow/bounds checking.
And on top of that, a human can create "bad" content. So the means by which it's created is a bit irrelevant.

And if we want to talk about "disinformation" -- how about all of the disinformation created by governments themselves to suit their specific agenda? And beyond the actual government -- the disinformation from political candidates is an art form.
The last I remember was them saying that they thought things would be in good shape by the end of 2023. I'm pretty sure I heard that about 6 months ago.

This announcement seems to be consistent with that. Not only that, but I'm seeing more availability now than earlier this year.

I see no need to call them liars.

- Competitors have caught up and now the market for animated family movies is utterly saturated. Old formulas are not enough to stand out.

- They overproduce. They used to make roughly 2 movies over 3 years; now they often release more than one movie per year.

- John Lasseter was "metoo'd" in 2017. They've not had any real success since - the last bonanzas were two sequels in 2018 and 2019.
I have heard all of these sounds, and I totally understand what they mean in this article.

I'm pretty sure it depends on cats though, but I know exactly what they mean by a cat deploying "an insistent chainsaw-like purr that bears some phonetic resemblance to a human baby's cry". I have known cats that did that.

The language creator has preferred to work on the development of the language largely in private, for the last couple of years. He’s explained why he’s chosen to do this and why he thinks it is beneficial. But, understandably, some people haven’t take too well to the lack of updates.

I think whether you view that as benevolent or not (I would, because I agree with lots of de facto development standards being detrimental to language quality, but I understand that that is my opinion and not hard fact) is in the eye of the beholder.
I cannot seem to locate the first paper you mentioned. Only seem to come up with stuff published in the last 5 years.

One thing they didn't mention was color vision. The immediate ancestors of the domestic cat were diurnal hunters with color vision. In domestic cats they not only hunt mainly at dusk or night, but the entire section of the brain related to color vision is much smaller.
Parse user input with NLP libraries and reject any inputs which are not well formed interrogative sentences? I think all jailbreaks thus far require imperatives. Users shouldn't be allowed to use the full extent of natural language if you want security.

But why couldn't you just use 1.2, is the question?

I've been bit by this style thing plenty of times. Just recently, I started a python project and used 3.11, only to realize I was targeting AWS Lambda and at the time 3.9 was the best they offered. I could have tried maintaining two versions and worked around that, or I could change completely to 3.9. (Now 3.10)

Did I lose on some things? Yeah, the switch stuff, in particular. That said, it was far preferable to a complicated build chain that tried to support both.

The idea of a strike being 'legal' or not is an unfortunate yoke that labor movements have allowed to be fitted to them. It's a silly idea and should be addressed as such. Labor has power. The collective masses have power over the few who oppress them. It doesn't matter if those people decide to call certain labor actions legal or illegal, they should happen (and must happen) all the same to keep the balance of power equitable.
What you are calling free speech is boring to the audience. Usenet died because the endless unfiltered spam and shit posting was boring compared to slashdot and then reddit and then here.
I also read Japanese (novels) a lot. If you don't mind using an extension, I recommend Sider [1], so that you can select texts and use the Sider popup to translate it. Custom prompt for translation is also supported. Cons would be that Sider does not support translation history, so you need copy&paste to save it (you can also login instead; I've never done that though).

This is a civil complaint. Nobody is demanding extradition as no crimes are alleged. If Zhao is dumb enough to blow off the courts, the DoJ will get involved.
Yeah it sounds like tenuous pseudoscience to me, but that might just be the T. Gondii speaking.
The "= delete;" thing was added, and move constructors are a big deal, but I agree.
in fact ALL the examples use the system prompt. one gets the impression that the completion api is softly being discontinued. this has been alarming for capabilities researchers who just want next token generation without the constraints of roles
It's always making things up. It's fundamentally a coincidence when it gets it right.

That's the nature of associative statistics -- and why this talk of "hallucination" is more marketing PR.

We hallucinate in that our reconstructions of our environment can be caused by internal states (eg., dreaming) -- whereas veridical perceptual states are usually caused directly by the environment.

Here, it's states (ie., the statistical averaging process over its training data) is NEVER caused veridically -- ie., its prompts are never caused by the environment.
I would say that the Citibank loan payment fiasco was mostly due to bad software design - which yes is mostly due to bad management priorities and validation. I don’t think most people look at that and say “that was pure user error, the software is fine”

On the other side of the spectrum there’s pure user error aka pebkac.

Where does this instance sit on the spectrum, I.e. even although it is possible to do a lot of things in excel, it’s often not a good idea to do many of things in it for a variety of deficiencies.
The Luca and Turning Red numbers are very disappointing, it seems, because they didn't receive any theatrical release in the US. Comparing them to Coco's numbers, it seems from the countries they did receive a theatrical numbers, they'd post several hundred million in revenue in non-COVID times. Onward snuck in just before the COVID lockdowns, so it does represent a "real" box office bomb compared to Luca/Turning Red.
I guess that's more for airplane simulators then. But I'd also think any physics engine where things can rotate arbitrarily need to work correctly here.

I also think, despite various sources on the internet saying "quaternions are the solution to gimbal lock", that classical 3D vectors and 3D matrices without quaternions also perfectly solve it.
Really sorry to hear about that experience — we need to do better here. If you want to shoot me an email (wmegson [at] stripe [dot] com) I can take a closer look at those specific charges. We are identifying those charges and are going to automatically refund any impacted transactions and waive the fees for those payments. We'll also waive the dispute fee (if a payment has been disputed).

The team is digging into why the risk score is low. In general, the types of signals you describe weigh pretty heavily in Radar’s risk assessment, and should result in higher risk scores. In this particular attack, fraudulent actors are using some pretty sophisticated scripts to try and obtain lower risk scores. We’re iterating quickly to address and stop these types of attacks and score them correctly going forward.
Microeconomics, back in college. It's the stuff you've always thought of, but have never been able to express in a succinct way. At least for me :)
> I've used it to get shit done and make a company money, everything else is fluff.

I find it so frustrating how hard this is to sell in an interview. I understand how important it is to avoid bad hires, but I'm a self-taught web developer so I just flat out don't know a lot of CS "basics". I've been a professional SWE for 5 years, have made all of my teams very happy, have accomplished some very good work, and have dug into the docs enough to get the most out of the many tools/libraries I've had to use.

But, sometimes there's a coding challenge on a topic I've just never seen before, and I'm dropped. As unrealistic as it is, I wish interviews had options for demonstrating my ability to learn a new tool quickly and make use of it. I'd spend a work day taking on a mock ticket for some new security procedure I've never touched before if it showed them that I can actually get the job done.
"in the US" is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that sentence. The entire rest of the world thinks Fox News is grotesque. Twitter becoming something that's a laughing stock to most of the planet is probably not "positive".

C'mon don't be disingenous.
DDG has become ridiculous. They seem to be merging "local", geoIP based results no matter what country I select on the region list (or I disable it). Very often completely unrelated stuff (but local) appears on the 5th or 6th result, midway the first page.

Most egregiously I will search for something very rare (e.g. about programming) and DDG will return me results regarding my city's tourist/visitor info. It's as if it just keeps ignoring words from the search prompt that return no results until it runs out of keywords then it's just the geoIP results.
> Imagine if in the early days of Photoshop a law had been passed to require notification that an image was edited. Every image we encounter today would have to contain that warning text.

Maybe pictures of anorexic models would have been less appealing back then, and therefore fashion would have evolved differently? Maybe young folks today would feel less required to conform?

It's really hard to predict what an alternate reality would have been, if you don't rely on the hypothesis that any divergence would be extremely limited in scope, or similar to another case where wildly different forces and goals apply.
ok, "what can you tell me about the copy constructor?"
Given they backslid on the feed given how badly it went down, and given they had sold the feed to artists (literally, giving them better promotion in exchange for lower royalties was defacto selling advertising space on the screens of "ad free users) which they will now have to unpick probably at a material effect on cost projections, I suspect the product management team are probably not considered high performers at present.

Like, checked in secret keys to a public repo?

Or bad-mouthed a co-worker? Or used degrading descriptions?

Or added code which, given a directory with a space, caused the wrong files/directories to removed?

Or checked in code in violation of copyright or patent law?

Or included comments which, when dug up by the opposing party's forensic expert, aided in making discovery requests your company would rather not have answered?

No, never. None of these.

This is only a tenable position to hold if you _also_ accept educational requirements to exercise other rights. E.g., the right to vote.

The Supreme Court has held that such requirements to exercise a fundamental right are inherently unconstitutional and discriminatory.

Because rights are held to the standard of scrutiny, the only way to diminish the protections afforded by the second amendment is to lower the standard of scrutiny, which opens the door to two scenarios: either the 2nd amendment is deemed unpopular enough of a right that it warrants diminished protections, which yields the prospect of any right becoming unpopular and protections similarly diminished, or none of the enumerated rights deserve the robust protections that the second amendment provides, which imperils protections on rights we may care more about, like voting (which is not even constitutionally enumerated,) speech, etc.
