Is there anything other than THC in those gummies? Many of the effects might depend on non-THC cannabinoids. Also, for some reason, some effects happen upon smoking or vaping but not through edibles. There are various theories about why, but it's all very complicated.
no less, because there is now less profit to make from it because now most people have a ticket

This user stole another user's code, closed his PR, and opened a new one where she started using words like "my work," "I'm the author," "author here," etc., and trying to cozy up to the project lead.

Gerganov figured out what was happening and actually banned her from all further contributions. The user whose code was stolen, Slaren, is still contributing.
Not that I know of - that comment of mine was a bit vague. I'm actually not sure if it's in this exact release, but I've heard that (a) Apple is going to allow you to publish an app outside of the app store, and (b) they don't make you pay the $100 dev fee unless you actually want to publish your app. Both of those are really positive changes for the developer experience.
Have you consider making the "handbook" available as a single file, i.e. a PDF containing the site contents?

Some folk find it easier to scroll through that way (it can still support header links, etc.), rather than having to click through sections of the site as required :)
Could you explain what you mean here?

I'm pretty reliant on my kettle for making coffee in the morning, it's not really a big deal to become adjusted to having a certain standard of living.

Do you mean that I might move home to somewhere where the car is more of a necessity and then feel it a burden that I can't walk to places?

At this stage of my life I probably wouldn't move to a place that didn't have public transport, unless car use is heavily restricted in London (I'd rather have both, but if I had to choose, the car is far superior to public transport in my everyday life).
unpopular opinion (which I hold, so I wish it were more popular): anything that makes driving awful is good because the worse it is to drive the more pressure there is for people to move to any other form of transportation, and everything else is better for the world (except maybe flying, depending on the details)
I'm tracking cloud-hypervisor and kata containers closely. I'm convinced there is a unicorn opportunity here for the SME/private-cloud world. An easily managed cluster of lightweight, live-migratable, hardware isolated VMs running containers (as opposed to just herding containers) solves problems people actually have, as opposed to the problems k8s solves. k8s is fine for the scale of enterprise for which it is actually intended and the problem space it was designed to address. It's not fine for everything else.
"Our SAAS cloud hosting platform is making the world a better place by providing the masses with a managed solution to administrating your intelligent killbots."
Yeah, but then don't expect people to show much compassion when the same thing happens the other way around and the US immediately cries wolf.
I think you are over-identifying with your own logical, rational, reasoning capabilities. Most of what makes people people is not that.

I agree with that and would not want to see braces and semicolons go because they are pretty conventional. In this case Python and Javascript/Typescript are the outliers.

It's the opposite for the double colon syntax which, apart from Rust, to the best of my knowledge only exists in C++ (for good reasons) and some functional languages for a completely different purpose.

Honestly curious question: What fallout would you see from replacing it with a dot in Rust. I immediately see no disambiguation issues, but I'm not a compiler writer.
You can, they showed the physical keyboard in the demo and mentioned the mouse/trackpad elsewhere I believe.
No, that doesn't exist anymore. (it also had gotten more expensive over the years, and only was for the full weekend until 2000 or so, only one day after that)

The closest is now the "Quer-durchs-Land" (~"across the country") ticket which is available for any day of the week and currently costs 44€ for the first person and 7€ each for up to 4 more people travelling on it.
I guess it makes sense that the only people dedicated and motivated enough to actually build their own stuff in the modern world are neo-nazis and tankies.
LLaMA weights are uploaded everywhere (including Huggingface, which Meta themselves regularly use) and I have not seen a single enforcement action. No one uses the access request forms or the XORs.

Seeing the comments here, I think HN is unaware of just how nonexistant Meta's policing of LLaMA is. They don't seem to care about their own license.

Hence my theory that Meta is having their cake and eating it. Clearly they don't mind LLaMA being widely used, but the restricted release and license gives them plausible deniability from displeased parties, especially those that have no idea what huggingface-hub even is.

Maybe this wasn't the initial intention, but it sure is an easy way forward.
It's definitely not a reasonable expectation. That doesn't stop the breathless hype from implying it is reasonable.
I'm suggesting that the baseline assumption that majority rule is some selection of "good" or "ideal" or "preferred" is at minimum misguided and at worst downright evil. Sprinkle in some geographic distinction and you edge much closer to the "evil" end of the scale.
> is it that some people define intelligence as >= human

I just want to say that this seems to be how many, if not most people define intelligence internally. If an LLM gets something wrong or doesn't know something, then it must be completely unintelligent. (as if humans never get anything wrong!)
I think the most prominent attempt at see-through AR was the Microsoft HoloLens. But if you've actually tried the HoloLens, the Field of View is atrociously, tragically small. The first HoloLens had a field of view of 30°*17.5°. The second HoloLens improved to 43°*29°, but it's still best described as "cramped." Couple that with almost all of the compute budget for the device going into vision processing and having very little compute left for actually running apps (the first HoloLens having a 1Ghz Intel Atom from 2015, the second a superior... Snapdragon 850).

The other problem, of course, is that nothing can be truly solidly-colored. Everything has some opacity - which, combined with the FOV issue, is why HoloLens was never marketed as having anything to do with VR.
There's an impulse to treat it like it actually understands, when it's really closer to an intern that's better at smiling, nodding, and telling you what you want to hear than competently doing the work.
I didn't know what a Korean steel container looked like, but Google gave me clarity and now I want some.
It isn't, yet it's used that way.
That's a ridiculous analogy. What about suger-free sodas, or sparkling water without even artificial sweeteners? What about people who drink soda, but still don't go over the daily recommended sugar intake, and otherwise have healthy lifestyles?

I'd be willing to make two assumptions:

1. A gaping wound in your leg is probably less healthy than a moderately-high sugar consumption.

2. People who are concerned about nanoplastic intake are probably also concerned about deleterious health effects of things like sugar intake.
The problem is that the choice of shipping a webapp has consistently and persistently eroded the platform’s value proposition for users.

You’re using a gish gallop style list of random claims. There is not one science article that pushes back on every one of your points.

The main thing to note is that fuel cell cars already exist. They already are cars that can be bought now and already drive like real cars. That alone debunks a vast number of supposedly unsolved problems.

Meanwhile, electrolysis approaches 100% efficiency: https://www.inceptivemind.com/hysatas-record-breaking-electr...

The most you can say is that BEVs are a solution for right now. Even then it's a pretty bad one since PHEVs exist and arguably far more practical. But hydrogen will displace it in the future.
> "double colons bad" is just an extremely subjective take that I don't really buy at all.

It is objectively worse to type shift+; two times than a single non-shifted period.

Opioids are no joke for sure. If you have good self discipline and can limit yourself to one every 2 to 3 days, it can be amazing and safe. But it makes you feel really good and many people don't have the self control required, so I recommend staying away. If you develop a physical dependence, it is not pleasant to say the least.
To be clear I think we need fewer laws. Specifically I think IP laws need to be abolished.

Software development, academic research, et cetera should be done in the open and public domain. Less monopoly profits for a few, better information and software for all.
The tests and masks aren't perfect yes, but they shouldn't be dismissed because they do help improve the odds of avoiding covid. And the cost is really minor, so why not still wear a mask and test? I'm at a massive work event and wearing an n95 the entire time has not been much of a hassle at all.
ok... I have to ask about the old name. It really sounds like it should be chock full of NSFW images. Is there some other way to read it?
It would be nice for web apps to have a setting users (not only the developers) can enable that will allow closing the app's window without quitting the app, like a lot of native desktop apps behave (eg, Safari).
Exactly. In the US they have a secret court where the government can get a secret warrant and issue it to a company demanding basically anything.

The whole concept of a "warrent canary" came from this.

How is this any different than a "god mode"?

Agreed. I already went on a camping trip to Jedediah Smith Redwoods park and re-installed an old but enjoyable game (to me) called Insurgency.

A global power grid is a far greater fantasy than building hydrogen storage, just FYI.
Thanks! I was writing a FastAPI/SQLAlchemy+SQLModel/Rocketry app this week and dreaded documenting my model relationships. That said, I see a few SQLAlchemy extensions and Pydantic→Mermaid projects that can probably be used in my case, and that was the route I was initially planning on going down despite none of them being aesthetically pleasing.

Many of these online tools reasonably rely on human input to place tables/nodes. Do any of these recommended tools do a decent job of smartly laying out the final diagram?

The standard of living of the poor in America went up all through the 19th century. Things like average height and longevity are strong markers of that. Also, average clothing sizes increased dramatically.

Go take a look at Fort Williams, and at the clothes in it they preserved. They look like kids' clothes. The same for Civil War uniforms. Larger than the FW clothes, but still looking like kid clothes.

I flipped through a high school history book a few years ago, and it insisted that the middle class in America didn't emerge until FDR. This is laughably wrong. It was there from the beginning.
I think where it falls, though, is that the claims were stronger for the water. People were literally getting ill and dying. With the air, there are much softer metrics being pushed that are more about seeing things are clean, but only if you have the measuring tools to see that they are dirty.
Citing examples of successful remote projects doesn't address the argument. They're just examples. I can also say that entire multi-billion dollar companies have been built on the foundation of offices and in-person collaboration. So what?

There are clearly preferences for both styles. Choose the style you want and work at a place that can accommodate. No need to force everything to be one way or another. Why is that such a hard concept?
Safari private browsing on iOS 17 uses Apple DNS server

Just because you don't personally encounter it, doesn't mean it's non-essential.

Viton is essential in modern engines. Basically anywhere you are in contact with gasoline, you need fluoroelastomer.

The entire chemicals industry - everything from medicine to energy to commodity chemicals - would collapse overnight if you took away teflon, viton, and PVDF. That's not hyperbole, it's used everywhere and there are no drop in alternatives. Silicone can fit the bill for some purposes, but it has nowhere the compatibility and longevity of viton. We have no real non-fluoronated alternative to teflon.
Agreed. I find "confabulating" more appropriate.
What you say would be the case if Nix uses Haskell or Guix uses some obscure purpouse made lisp

Any community that isn't massive and doesn't get shown on the front page is most likely doing what the community members want.

Question:

When I click in my Gmail android app on a link from a received E-Mail, the opened Firefox browser opens a google domain for a second and only after that the domain from the link opens... any idea what that is? Tracking?
this sort of tracking is illegal and not done. berlin had to cancel its rollout of smart cards and tapping some years ago due to leaking of personal information. you just wave the card when you get on the bus, or just not at all
In the US, I still end up sending and receiving checks a few times per year. My theater troupe gets paid by check, for example. We could probably set up some kind of direct transfer between their organization and mine, but I don't know how. Zelle, maybe?

Checks have the advantage of no overhead. I don't have to pay transaction costs. That's not enormous, and the checks themselves require handling that costs my time, but it means that in a lot of cases it's just easier to do the thing that we already know how to do.
Nice to meet you. I've actually concluded(through experience) that heavy cannabis use has mainly downsides with no upsides, but that sporadic use only has upsides. I have several friends who feel the same way. They smoke even less than me, maybe a couple times a year. I've met some people who completely swore it off too.

It's weird that reasoning through complex mathematical proofs is easier (for both me and GPT) than mentally evaluating a short snippet of code. I've done a BSCS, I've done those tests that ask you what the output of a poorly written and tricky loop is, that stuff hurts my brain. In comparison, a mathematical proof, once you're ready, feels good.
Such an excellent resource. Makes me wish there was an equivalent geared toward small business as opposed to startup operation
This is really interesting. It might draw a lot of tourism because it’s so easy to get around. It’s not even about the money. It’s about the stress-free way of traveling.
I tend to be a homebody but traveling to faraway places are on the bucket list for sure. I'm trying to conserve funds to extend my time off so I'll be taking more day trips near where I live here in Washington.
You didn't write that feature. Slaren did. You closed his PR and made minor changes, then gradually shifted from "our feature" to "my feature."

That's not the original PR. jart was working on a malloc() approach that didn't work and slaren wrote all the code actually doing mmap, which jart then rebased in a random new PR, changed to support an unnecessary version change, magic numbers, a conversion tool, and WIN32 support when that was already working in the draft PR. https://archive.ph/Uva8c

This is the original PR: https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/pull/586.

You didn't make whole the people you damaged or the project you attempted to harm with plagiarism and pathological levels of manipulation and lying.
Despite some validity to what you are saying, it has always been the case that the convention center is unusually crappy in terms of food options. It's surprising given where it is. So many other areas have better and more awesome options. I would never suggest the convention center area as the region to go to if wanting to explore great restaurants.

Also in the article "In December 2022, Apple introduced new security features, including Advanced Data Protection, which applies end-to-end encryption to several additional kinds of data. Apple calls this their “highest level of cloud data security”. Advanced Data Protection generates encryption keys on each of your iCloud-connected devices and encrypts eligible data before uploading it to iCloud. Apple does not have access to the keys required to decrypt that data."

My experience differs a lot: I go by train (in Germany) rather often and would say that it was more common to be checked than not (i.e. for me the probability of being checked was more than 1/2).

>so it's all around less effective.

Organizing and growing teams is a challenge no matter what the environment, especially for a group that trends introvert. It is hard, whether in office, hybrid, remote, or mixed.

It is hard enough that it seems to me that people pick a side and then stop thinking about how to make the other options work - because why would you? If you picked iOS, why would you waste your precious time thinking about how you'd do it on Android?

But if you're not thinking about how to solve the problems you perceive in remote work, it's not useful to announce your problems with it as if that is any kind of conclusive argument. You haven't solved the problem, but that doesn't mean the problem can't be solved.

Another problem is that many companies are doing hybrid, and that means 40% of the time spent remote. Do the juniors just not get help on those days? Do they just "talk themselves into trouble" without the talking? If we can answer these questions for the two remote days, we can answer them for five remote days.

>I used to have a couple of PMs from other teams who regularly came to me for help because their engineers weren't great at talking to non-technical people.

Great. You're one of these talky people. Lucky you! We're not all like that. Let's see if we can be friends rather than competitors/enemies.

Yes if your only connection is wi-fi with drivers that require nonfree firmware, which is missing from the official ISO. You're supposed to discuss nonfree software in some non-official place too. That's what been stopping me as well; the system seems technically superior to Nix and not nearly as chaotic, but hardcore FOSS idealism makes it impractical sometimes.
It's absolutely insane to pretend most software engineers need to do any of these things. We're making billions of dollars in aggregate without knowing this stuff. Most people aren't writing their own data compression algorithms, and we sure as shit aren't writing cryptographic algorithms because we're told to leave that one to the experts (i.e., mathematicians).

I'm guessing 80% don't even know bit-field flags and never have to use them, despite them being relatively simple. It would also take someone moderately capable at understanding math less than an hour to "learn." I learned them when I was 13 because I fucked around with MUD codebases, and I don't think I am special for it.
Convenient non-plastic solutions need to be developed. After learning about micro plastics and forever chemicals, I started to get paranoid of this stuff. Started cooking at home more and started removing plastic from my daily life. After my wife got pregnant, I keep telling her to avoid plastic, but she doesn't seem to take it seriously. She purchased plastic food containers, I tell her don't microwave food in it, but she does it anyway because the container is "microwave safe". She also wants to carry her own lunch but glass containers are heavy and she doesn't want to carry that. I keep reminding her that she shouldn't use it, especially while pregnant, but she says that I'm stressing her out with that. She said she's open to using non-plastic stuff but it needs to be as convenient as the plastic products she's using now. It's difficult to find proper replacements for stuff like plastic wraps, or lightweight glass food / beverage containers.
