This brings back happy memories. I was lucky enough to have the precursor, an Acorn Pocket Book, as part of my school curriculum. I lost it a few years ago in a move but I can still remember the the distinctive "device" smell (probably the case material). I yearned for the additional memory of the Psion 2. I would write lengthy stories that would fill up the memory. No off-device storage. I'd have to delete entries of birds i'd spotted and researched from cards app, tough decisions needed to be made.

Long before pokemon swept the west, our teacher would take us bird watching. We'd create entries in the cards app for each one we spotted, then research the birds in the library to fill out the entry. Then, as a class we'd trade (share) our research with each other.

Come up with a good question, then maybe you'll find a good answer.
I used to pay for Reddit, but they kept getting more and more user-hostile to the point that the use I got out of it was accidental.

To give just the most recent example: They PMd everyone in Germany about their great new subreddits (Big US subs with the names translated to German), filled with bots posting successful posts and comments from those big subs, auto-translated.

Yeah, that’s a quirky anecdote when Reddit started 17 years ago, it’s a lot less quirky when you do it now.
I got hired from a "Who's Hiring" post about 5 years ago and it's been an amazing experience. I've been able to work on interesting problems without having to deal with a bunch red tape as I had become accustom to in previous roles. I also got to go through a successful IPO which has been incredibly gratifying.

I later found out that the company doesn't regular post to those threads and someone did it on a whim which made me feel even luckier for having happened to come across it.

Then, early in the pandemic when lots of companies were laying people off there was a thread for companies still hiring. I posted something and we got a ton of applications but sadly none of them panned out. Later I was talking with some coworkers about how we all found the company and someone mentioned they found it via HN. Turns out it was actually my post and I just didn't realize someone had gotten hired from it which was pretty cool.

It look like Odin is really a beautiful language to program with.

Did you encounter memory bugs? Essentially what memory safety feature Odin offer? (From what I read here, Zig and Rust offer some features to eliminate entire classes of bugs which remove the nightmare of hours of debugging)

Anything you dislike or wish Odin has that other languages offer?

>that the debug info situation seems much improved in comparison to 2022 when apparently it was much less complete (DWARF info, that is, PDB info seems to have been much better overall, historically).

I believe Odin was developed on windows and other system come later, probably that why PDB is much better.

A big part of why we spend more is cultural and environmental. The government incentives encourage unhealthy food to be everywhere and subsidizes things like adding corn syrup products to everything. Policy also encourages driving instead of walking. And we've made it culturally acceptable to be fat. There are big movements trying to convince people their weight is not a problem, not something they have control over, and you can be "healthy at any size". Many doctors have stopped warning patients about their obesity because of social pressure not to fat shame! I started with a doctor like that when facing blood pressure and related issues and have since ditched them. Caring more about sensitivity, being accused of fat shaming, and expediency than my health is malpractice in my book.

About me: I've been coding (full-stack + infra) and consulting for 12 years, mostly working on CRM/ERP systems in C# and React, but also third-party integrations and APIs. Comfortable with solo projects. I'm currently looking for a chill environment, where I can focus on delivering without having to fight for time to deal with technical debt.

I like interesting challenges (my latest favorite was figuring out how to get industrial printer ink levels from an ICMP response containing a hex payload), sane and cost-effective solutions (not going all-in on cloud with microservices unless necessary), but also keeping a healthy work-life balance (not going to neglect my family to chase deadlines). I'm a quick learner, so I can handle new technologies fairly swiftly.

Outside of work I love all things IoT and home automation in general, DIY electronics (I've designed a PCB once and it was fun), video games (sim racing especially) and producing music (mostly remixing). I'm also an F1 fan.

Feel free to contact me even just to talk.

I'm not interested in things related to crypto and metaverse.
May I humbly suggest coming back to the thread in a couple hours or tomorrow? There’s gotta be a language barrier thing here, you’re being extremely argumentative at length about a noun being used.

This last comment extends, at an uncomfortable level, the politics argument and name calling you started and you’re accusing others of, for no discernible reason.

HN is missing lots of features. That's not UI. The HN UI is pretty good.

VS Code has a vertical documentlist, and if you want different styling, you can build an extension for this. No reason to have a duplicate feature out-of-the-box.
> Are you expecting for someone to test all the currently known tricks on a BabyAGI-like setup to know if that's enough to achieve your task?

That's right. I mean proving in the sense talked about in this HN comment https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36083070, not in the sense of a mathematical proof.
I rarely see this mentioned, but why don’t people just support laws that expire? You can’t stifle innovation in the long run if the law doesn’t exist in the long run.

I’ve often espoused a law that requires USB-C to charge phones- that expires after 3-5 years. Just enough time to get everyone on the same standard and lock in a little, but not enough to kill innovation when the next big thing happens.

Worst case scenario, wait 3 years… but if it was really bad, the law would get repealed anyways.

This strategy would be great for many fields. Imagine if the world decided to make a law that expires in 3-5 years to require one specific electric car charging port. Or made an expiring law that required ebook sellers to use epub format in 2010 (I’m looking at you, Amazon, with your .mobi format). Or made an expiring law that unified every display cable under HDMI (ignoring patent issues).

I’m not saying that stuff like this should be enshrined in law forever, but a lot of stuff would be a lot easier if it was more socially/politically accepted to pass laws that expire.
I don't see what's inherently wrong with UTF-16 surrogates. If I am not wrong, a given UTF-16 codeunit is unambigously either a complete code point, a first surrogate, or a second surrogate.

Why should we expect invalid utf-16 strings to be representable in utf-8 or 32? I don't see anyone trying to represent invalid utf-8 in utf-16 or 32.
Note he doesn't mention a user story. Large technical projects apparently let you ignore what the user wants, use cases, dependencies, stakeholders, design reviews, feature changes. Instead you just decide what you want and wait to see if the user wants it too.
> the disabling of the ability to update iOS.

This is done by the malware.

Indeed, the identified fix involves a factory reset and upgrading iOS to prevent the malware from taking over again.

That provides a simple explanation for why the phones are running such an old version: because they've been infected and unable to be updated for that entire time.

I would more describe it the following way.

Vertical tabs solve a core issue in horizontal tabs. Tabs are inherently 2D: the number of tabs vs the length of their titles. Horizontal tabs can scale only to one dimension. You can choose to either see many of your tabs at once, but not be able to read any of the titles, or be able to read the titles but have to scroll absurd distances just to view what tabs are open.

Vertical tabs give you a 2-dimensional view of your tabs. You can see many of your tabs and be able to read as much of the titles you want by scaling the horizontal size of the area independently.

I think it's brilliant. I also don't see how browsers could "fix" horizontal tabs without resorting to taking away valuable vertical space from the content that is the primary purpose of browsers.
The comments seem to conclude that it was actually nerfed just not the API.
The quines are not simulating each other, they are just printing a string after some formatting (which usually involves embedding a copy of the string into itself). There's no Turing completeness needed (most of the quines don't even have branches), much less Gödel encodings.

Worth noting that many of these low spec screens allow you to read pixels back.

Ie. you can write pixels direct to the screen (one at a time, or sometimes in blocks), and use the screen itself as your framebuffer. Some screens then have a "go" command that will do the actual refresh when you say so.

If you so wish, you can use the screen itself as scratch space for code, data, or partially rendered stuff and the user won't see it.

Often to find out about this stuff you'll need to go deep into the datasheets - you probably won't find the supplied libraries cover it.

I think screen manufacturers do this because they need to have a framebuffer anyway (depending on the screen technology), and they want devices to be able to use their big screens even if they have tiny microcontrollers.
I've always felt affordable, accessible MRIs would be the next big leap in human health and well-being. Beyond cancer screening, it would also allow more musculoskeletal assessments so many injuries can be properly assessed and treated. The time and cost barriers to MRI access (and resulting insurance issues in US at least) make these assessments limited to only a few. If a kid twists his knee playing a sport, yet does not have such access, the pain can go undiagnosed and untreated - causing them limited function for the rest of their life.

I hope this technology continues to advance according to their plan and beyond - to reduce cost further and to also cover musculoskeletal soft tissues. Perhaps the AI could eventually assist in diagnosis by offering an initial assessment to each patient- which can be cross checked and verified by a physician if the patient chooses.
I think I saw one of Planet Computers models or one close to it, and the keyboard keys felt like rubber keys with laptop caps glued on, not like real pantograph or scissors keys. I felt I dodged a bullet at that moment.

Respectfully, you're taking an extremely naive stance to a topic where others are trying to bring nuance. I think if you listen carefully, you'd learn something that will help you not just on this topic but in your life.

> I'm able to demonstrate that that WP is fine for several high-traffic sites. Some of which were getting ~30M unique visitors (not pageviews) a month without being on fire.

So was I. But when I realized that commercial and even bespoke CMS' often blew WP out of the water I really changed my tune. And amazingly they ended up being cheaper, more performant and more secure.

Can you make it work? Yes. Should you? Very tough question. I can't see too many cases where I would reach for it.
A big chunk of developments based on Facebook’s LLaMA model are by small-time developers and individuals, not large players. Facebook has already shown a viable way to release models in the way you described.
Everything you said is aligned with my experience in training. BJJ is pure pressure testing of what you are learning and it is as close to fighting without striking and other dirty tactics like eye gouging. I have done traditional martial arts and it was not as close to experience under-pressure training. Also, I find myself in autopilot as well as in a focused, calm state when rolling at times.

I think in a real fight situation, someone who trains would be more calm to deal and, most likely, deescalate the situation because we are accustom to intense situations and our egos are tested so much that we are indifferent to silly challenges that can be fatal in some situations.
> and at 87 he isn’t interested in a new car with more safety features.

The safety features of a new car might not offset the safety of the muscle memory of driving the old car. At that age and with declining capabilities, the "usual" might actually be safer than "safer but different".

Since he seems mindful of his declining capabilities (he is restricting when and by how much he drives), i wouldn't worry too much, he would most likely stop driving on his own, just keep checking him.
We need to stop lobotomizing LLMs.

We should get access to the original models. If the TikZ deteriorated this much, it's a guarantee that everything else about the model also deteriorated.

It's practically false marketing that Microsoft puts out the Sparks of AGI paper about GPT-4, but by the time the public gets to use it, it's GPT-3.51 but significantly slower.
Fair, but most (if not all) of the reporters are in (and often from) the countries or regions they report in.
That's only part of the problem.

All the moderators are unpaid 'workers'. And their quality can be abhorrent to the extreme.

Basically reddit is the perfect example of getting people to contribute content and work for free. And when people are run off, so does your content and your moderators.

I don’t know you have a laptop behind me. I bought a flight ticket. My seat can recline. I don’t need to ask for permission. Consequently, it’s your property and you know the trays are not designed for laptops. Ergo, the onus is on you to protect your equipment. I would suggest looking at the faulty design and then adapting your approach accordingly.

The player is playing by the rules, you gotta hate the game (the airlines) for pitting the two of you against each other instead of against the hilariously bad design
Congrats on the launch. Am I missing a button or is the website wasn't translated?
I had some fun a few years ago developing a replacement circuit for Ferrari 308/Mondial ignition ECUs, and then subsequently the ones for the 328/Mondial 3.2/Testarossa cars. It was interesting to see how crude but still effective the original circuits from the 1980's were, but also how much polish I could give to it while retaining form/fit/function compatibility, using an ARM Cortex-M0 and other modern ICs available to me.

One of the biggest updates I was able to do was to add a much more rugged power supply. The original boxes get fried easily by dirty jump starters, pulling the alternator while running, etc. It was pretty easy with the components available now to make a new circuit that protects from all that.

The most interesting thing to me was that when I went to a more modern ignition map rather than the crude 8 stepped curve they had originally implemented, while testing showed it produced more power and better emissions, people beta testing for me reported it felt 'too smooth, less fun'. So I went back to the original crude steps <shrug>.

Anyway, it was an engaging project that taught me a lot about engine ignition, and I've now sold about 100 boxes and helped keep these old classics on the road.

Frama-C as a bare minimum is a pipe dream.

It's a nice thought, don't get me wrong, but it's hard enough to convince people to add `-fsanitize=...` to their compiler flags. An entire separate static analysis tool with its own learning curve (and its own set of idiosyncrasies) doesn't really qualify for "bare minimum" IMO.
I'd say his comment is the perfect example of why Reddit's new UI is the way it is. Features = good UI, apparently.
You can remove the word "they" from your comment and it'll still work for this site.
If they're actually providing a service beyond what's available everywhere else, such as actively removing bigoted garbage or more powerful tools to discover high quality content relevant to me, I'd toss them a few bucks a month. Especially now in 2023. I don't think I would have paid even that much in 2010. And certainly not $50 for a newer and smaller network.

I get what you're saying. I acknowledge I am an anomaly in being willing to pay at all. I just wonder if maybe it was the wrong time ($50 was certainly and still the wrong price IMO) for a paid social network to be successful. Perhaps it could work today with a small subscription.

CDrs still are a thing, and may work "about as well".

The only surefire way for long term archival storage for the average user is to use multiple methods, and check them from time to time.

It's all a matter of cost vs how much you want to archive. If it's in the "CDr size" you can just make tons of copies, some will probably survive.

But you can also just keep that much around on every device you own and checksum it regularly.

Tape is pretty good, but even there you'd want multiple copies on different media. You could rent a drive or buy a used one, write out your tapes, and then sell the drive again.

Hard drives sitting unpowered have a "decent" change of firing back up after 10+ years, if you have the connector (externals are probably easiest) - but even there I'd want multiple copies from different vendors.

That’s because SMS has a 1120 bit message capacity and uses one of two encoding mechanisms.

GSM-7 uses 7 bits per character and a correspondingly limited character set that allows for 1120/7 = 160 characters.

UCS-2/UTF-16 uses 16 bits per character for a total of 1120/16 = 70 characters per message.
Turkeys can fly, though. Just not the domestic ones :)
It's inevitable. When Sam asked a crowd how many people wanted an open source version of GPT-7 the moment they finished training it, and nearly everyone raised their hand.
People will virtue signal, people will attempt regulatory capture, but deep down everyone wants a non-lobotomized model, and there will be thousands working to create one.
It's not weird because it's not a 160 limit in the sense of characters. Non-English language people are I guess more aware of this -- using a character not in the standard English a-z often counts as two characters.
In game theory, correlated equilibrium is possible without explicit communication, simply by having access to some signal that (everyone knows is) common knowledge. COVID and interest-rate opportunism by corporations could maybe fall into this bucket without explicit collusion.

Granted, the reality is probably less subtle than all that. When Mark Zuckerberg announces that he's doing stealth layoffs by "raising the bar on performance management", and this is reported in the news, the herd animals in C-suites see and follow. Subtle mechanisms of coordination don't need to be invoked; it's just straightforward mimetic fashion.

Returning to game theory, correlated equilibria can be good -- a way out of Prisoner's Dilemmas -- but in this case I'm afraid it's mostly just the actions of "capital" that are correlated. The Left's communication channels are jammed with pomo chaff, and its members' actions are more independent and uncoordinated.
