I actually meant safest VS ai. But as other comments have pointed out it’s also a lot safer vs a shoot.

I’ve seen photo shoots costing hundreds of thousands of dollars not being used at all.

even multi million TV campaigns made and never run. Shooting is hard!

I wanted to try it in Hindi, but it was unavailable. Would love to play around w/ it in that language.

I love the idea though!
for example, matrix multiplication has all sorts of algorithms with exponent significantly less than 3, but they are nearly all curiosities. In practice, the straightforward N^3 algo is used nearly everywhere
Fair. I guess historians would also object against destroying phone books, if not right now, in a hundred years.

We recently told our daughter what a phone book was. She was flabbergasted.
Your argument about Madoff is old and stale and definitely not convincing.

The problem with trying this for scientific investigations are that funding is the fundamental bottleneck. Labor is the other bottleneck, and it's one that is fundamentally at odds with the entire concept (as scientifically trained laborers can't work on their own ideas, but must work on the ideas they are employed to work on).
> This is completely unphysical, and reveals that your knowledge goes no deeper than "fuel cells are electrochemical systems."

> In any proton exchange membrane you (by definition) lose 50% of the theoretical chemical energy as the proton crosses the membrane. Some fuel cells try to use this waste heat somehow, which is how they try to claim >50% efficiency.

You are suffering from Dunning-Kruger syndrome. It's already been proven that fuel cells can attain 100% efficiency. https://www.dynamictidalpower.eu/resources/Documenten/Maximu...

Not to mention that you're own claims are factually wrong since efficiencies exceeding 50% have already been obtain before any heat reuse.

> No, fuel cells are nothing more than a shiny distraction for legacy ICE makers to wave in front of regulators, in a desperate attempt to delay their disruption by EVs.

Fuel cells cars are literally EVs. This profound misunderstanding of the facts suggests that you are working entirely off of BEV propaganda. Your claims are pure gibberish and nonsensical.

Also, synfuels and hydrogen-ICE cars have been tested now. So it isn't even a motivation anymore, since ICE cars can also be zero emissions. In fact, pro-BEV bullshit is permanently stuck in the mid-2000s, not realizing that technology has long since moved on.

> If they could figure out how to make a long-lived fuel cell without platinum, maybe that would be true.

Platinum use is comparable to a catalytic convertor: https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/bosch-ev-fuel-cells-less-...

Neat idea, I'd worry that the tracking is worse than the benefit.

That said I routinely let long YouTube ads play while I go off to do something else. Personal best was circa 1.5hour ad!

The sorting seems cool but I am more interested in the varint decoder. Does anyone know where the source code of that landed, if it did?
Including things in the platform is a double-edged sword; the platform has different compatibility policy from windows, and old games typically do not get updated with mandated platform changes (such as a requirement for 64-bit).

Swift developer were upset by concurrency because the language’s deep integration with the platform meant the best features were (for a while) only accessible for apps targeting the latest platform versions exclusively.
Also sponsorblock, that blocks internal video ads.
Only a very tiny fraction of all VC investments make it to IPO, whereas all ICOs are offered to the general public from day #1, that's their whole reason for existence. Almost all crypto is a scam, almost none of the VC activity is a scam. Where VC and crypto coincide (such as with the author of TFA) it is pretty clearly a scam too.
It'd be funny if this were the thing that catalyzes everyone to unionize.
They are both the murder of your own child.

One day, abortion of an unborn child will be widely considered as shocking as child sacrifice is today.
And that's why we need unions.

Its not that unions are somehow pure wonderful organizations. They fail like any human-run org for the similar reasons.

The unions are required because only a union is "big enough" to stand up to a company, and to sit down at the big negotiating table. You, an individual, can easily just be told to go pound sand.

If an individual tries to go against this Farmers Insurance takesies-backsies of remote work, your recourses are to: follow their orders, quit, or refuse and make them fire you. As an individual, you have NO power.

At a union level, those choices are more numerous and back-breaking to the company. They can't just fire all workers. Minor sabotage in the forms of work stoppage and slowage can also significantly hurt a company engaged in this sort of crap. And the union is "big enough" to have a sit-down and negotiation to resolve this.

You're never going to get a honest sit-down and negotiation as an individual when the CEO wants something. But that union will.
Monocular cameras are a strange strawman. Is anyone seriously considering them?

Binocular cameras provide absolute depth information, and are an order of magnitude cheaper sensors than the other options.

Since this technology is clearly computationally limited, you should subtract the budget for the sensors from the budget for the computation.

According to the article, the non-camera sensors are in the $1000’s per car range, so the question becomes whether a camera system with an extra $2000 of custom asic / gpu / tpu compute is safer than a computationally-lighter system with a higher bandwidth sensor feed.

I’m guessing camera systems will be the safest economically-viable option, at least until the compute price drops to under a few hundred dollars.

So, assuming multi-camera setups really are first to market, the question then is whether the exotic sensors will ever be able to justify their cost (vs the safety win from adding more cameras and making the computer smarter).
I don't understand why this post is being downvoted. What is the point of more compute if everyone will get locked out of the "wealth pool" because they can no longer produce any value?
> DOM: Added support for ES Modules on DedicatedWorker and SharedWorker

I know a bunch of PWAs were waiting on that. As I recall Firefox workers were the last thing that didn't support ESM, so this feels like a time to celebrate that ESM is supported "everywhere".
I found it with "San Francisco tax incentives business physical space" https://sfstandard.com/business/mayor-breed-introduces-tax-b...

Looks like for SF it is beating back some of the taxes I mentioned earlier. If you don't have the people in the office, of course, you don't get the tax incentive but you don't get the tax in the first place.

In any case, this is actually good since we have an office here and we're all in-office and looking for a new one. That 0.45% might be good.

> Canada built 321,000 units of housing in 2021 but is in pace to have over 500,000 immigrants this year.

That sounds about right? Most housing units will house 2-3 people, and a lot will house quite a few more. Obv this excludes natural population growth, but Canada's fertility rate is lower than most of Europe, and one of the lowest in the Western world, so that's probably not a problem.
It's not just about market fit though. Pixar didn't announce a movie as soon as it was conceived, and neither should you. Announcing too early often sets you up for failure.

The first iPhone not only had GPS, it had Google Maps built in. Here's the timestamp of Jobs's 2007 presentation, showing the feature: https://youtu.be/vN4U5FqrOdQ?t=2207

Selfie camera was out by the following year. Flashlight was implemented as an app very early on after app store came out. The original version most definitely had gyroscope and compass.

Mass appeal was very much already there when iPhone launched. But it was hamstrung a bit by 2.5G and the exclusive deal with AT&T. Remember, mobile phones used to come with 2 year contracts with heavy cancellation penalties, and 3G took a while to roll out to the U.S. market. Still, it was a smashing success in its first year with 10 million units sold. Remember, back then the mobile market was very fragmented. Devices not only varied dramatically by manufacturer, but some devices could only be found with certain carriers (ie T-Mobile Sidekick). Any model that sold more than 1 million units in a year was considered to be a smashing success.

It was already very obvious what the killer features were or would be on the iPhone at launch.

Body language across a lot of samples and people can show patterns between this body language and lying. A single instance of someone displaying body language in a given context says virtually nothing. "Tells" vary wildly between people for a million different reasons as this study shows, and unless you study a specific individual very carefully in a scientific way, there is nothing you can gather from their body language.
> I think most people who run companies are sociopaths who don't care about their employees.

Another possibility: most people who run companies are actually aware of different types of jobs and employees where in-person interaction is needed, compared to loudest proponents of WFH on HN who may be projecting their unique situation (solo coder getting work done much more efficiently on small isolated projects).
It is like Quazel but, Quazel is better.
It sounds like you haven't used midjourney v5
Yes.

Also, Image decoders are part of the OS on Apple devices so likely all existing apps will support it automatically when iOS updates.
Dumb question -

Where are the machine learning de-compilers?

Given an executable program, give me human-readable code that generates the executable exactly. With machine learning guessed function, type, variable names...?

I get that it's a very hard problem. But... Does it just not work? Or have people not done it yet? Or have I missed it?
I agree it's something that needs to be dealt with, but can you name a plausible scenario in which this would actually happen and in which the desired behavior would be that you get silently some garbage filename written to your disk?

Let's say you get an EILSEQ on accessing the dirent with readdir and now have to debug how you got some corrupted filename you clearly didn't want in the first place, remount and fix it. How is that worse than having the corrupted filename and not knowing about it before something more insidious happens?

Great, and it has all the housing to support it! Right? ... Right?!
I'm not a scientist, just a dumb dude watching Youtube. But there is a problem in physics with tests not being avaialble for stuff they're theorizing about. From my limited understanding, string theory currently has zero path to empirical research to prove or disprove. So it might take a bit longer than a century or two for that reason.
Thanks, I did a quick search and found alot from whom should be considered the uber sources of information about Diablo development, David Brevik and Erich Shaeffer. I was just in the trenches for Diablo 2. One thing I remember about the crunch per David's piece on crunch, he neglected to mention that when he gave a speech announcing we would crunch until we finished, and if we finished in time for holiday release that year the entire studio would get a free trip to Las Vegas, or we would get fired. Kelly Johnson, a character artist was standing near me during the meeting and mumbled something under his breath but I don't think anyone thought we would generate the content required for that deadline, but I believe he had to give a speech about it I'm guessing for appearances' sake.
Sorry, I meant to say that he has not seen the evidence first-hand, which is pretty important IMO.
+1 on the working backwards process. I find it useful even for internal demos and scripts that I write. Thinking backwards helps me figure out what the point of the demo is. Why anyone would be interested in it.
It really isn't. They certainly have more insight into their subjective mental state than you, so basically you're just saying 'coincidence?!' about an unmeasurable phenomenon where the observer has qualia and you do not.

It'd be like if you said 'I had an idea yesterday...' and I responded with 'Did you though? Maybe you just overheard it and thought it was yours! Maybe you just thought of it now and incorrectly associated it with something you did yesterday!' It doesn't add any extra information while dismissing your own conscious experience completely.
this is not predictable directly
Hey, this is cool!

Is it possible something more than the speed throttle for beginners? Could the AI use simpler language for beginners and more complex for advanced users?
Marketing is a branch that employs hundred of thousands of people to devise the best images to manipulate you. Billions are spent on research in this domain.

thinking oneself impervious to ads, let alone blind, is in my view a bit presomptuous. I am convinced you are influenced by ads, you just don't notice it (and that's the point of ads, you shouldn't notice)
What's the point of knowing where you are if you don't look cool while you're there? /s
On the other hand, I do appreciate the efficiency of serving the PR mission and the testing mission with the same boat.
Even if what you say is true (and I am very doubtful), that only covers rather specific sorts of jobs. It says nothing about the wider impact across all industries.

Even if dev's jobs are "safe", if even 20% of everyone else can't earn a living, devs will suffer the consequences just the same as the rest of the world.
It's not some secret when more kids know this happens than parents. It's been full speed ahead for quite some time.
Can you ELI5 how this works?
What if we're thinking about inflation all right?

Huge stimulus programs over the past five years absolutely overcooked the economy and fueled high inflation. Fiscal policy, hands bound by the rise of populism, is doing nothing to help, while central banks, free from the constraints of worrying about electability, are using the only tool they have to try stop the bleeding.

The solution, of course, is to tighten fiscal policy in the way of reducing spending or increasing taxes. But that's political suicide.

words that classify something to be better, I assume that they really are substandard and are using words like above to make it appear as it is the case.
Pride and Prejudice and Zombies is certainly entertaining, and I’m happy that some people enjoyed coming up with it and others enjoyed watching or reading it, but if it replaced Pride and Prejudice, the world would be worse off.
> red flag for me of this sort of remedy ... are their absolute guarantees and promises of immediate results

This doesn't even cover the half of it. The problem with adding more central authority to any situation is the increased opportunities for confused deputies. In other words, abusers adapt their behavior - both conforming their behavior to the system's rules of what is considered acceptable, and leveraging those rules (and thus the power of the central authority) against their victim.
This may be true of many corporate platforms, but this article describes what was done with a Mastodon instance. Mastodon instances are generally commercial/advertising free. This and my social media instances are not trying to harvest any data or identify people. The main intent of the email verification is to allow password sets and resets, but it provides some small impediment for spammers. Little is foolproof to stopping spammers, but we can mitigate.
Yeah I agree with this take, too. I don't think they're mutually exclusive.
That is true and I never really understood this 'babysitting' approach to language education (as in: language classes too often feel like they're designed to keep kids busy, while the goal should be to use the language.) Talking to a mirror would work better than a lot of language class activities I can think of.

Will try to build on this positive, thank you!
This is cool but why does the output even show the code? Most people asking to reverse the word “lollipop” have no idea what Python is.
I suspect all the people voting for restrict housing are going to be surprised when young/poor people eventually revolt :)
It's not unethical to talk about anyone publicly. It IS unethical to keep secrets that could help people, to talk about someone behind their back, or to speak dishonestly about someone, or to criticize someone from an anon account.

The OP is doing none of those things. He his both offering FREE highly thoughtful feedback to Rui (which I'm guessing is exactly what Rui was looking for by posting something publicly), and offering all of us who care about open source business models another perspective.
It also applies to all victims of hackers, irrespective of whether the victims themselves are supposedly criminals or not. So if you get hacked, then suddenly the government can hack you too.

No amount of hypothetical "it could also be used against criminals" balances out the bonkers overreach this represents.
Ask HN: Is there an ML model that can go from an audio song to sheet music?
Trying to learn some foreign music where the sheet music is not exactly available (old folk music type stuff) so I was wondering if there is a model or an app that can go from an audio file to sheet music or notation.
I also had difficulty getting it to understand me. Theres a couple solutions I can think of that may make this more usable:

1) Speech to text into an input field, allow the user to modify

2) I presume this is uses an LLM to generate the responses, submit the new text and give it the entire convo as context but initially ask it to "correct" the text to what would make sense in context based on similar sounding words.

Edit: Hah oh it's not too great right now at all. Tried it again and it ended up writing Cyrillic as my response despite me speaking Spanish.
Don’t forget about all those lazy old people who aren’t contributing and just taking up space… usually too much space (an old couple in a 3 bedroom house)
Maybe Apple has set their sights on Nvidia's AI market.
Replication is always very important. But for me the "gold standard study" is mechanistical, not statistical. It explains how a process putatively works, not that an effect was seen.

For this to work, either (1) the network has to be reliable, and all cars have to be trustworthy (both from a security and fault tolerance perspective), or (2) the cars have to be safe even when disconnected from the network, such as during an evacuation.

We already know for sure that we can’t solve (1), which means we have to solve (2). Therefore, car-to-car communication is, at best, a value add, not the enabling technology.

> Taxes are, of course, more complicated than that, especially if your job happens to be based in one of seven convenience of the employer, or “convenience rule,” states — Arkansas, Connecticut, Delaware, Nebraska, New York, Pennsylvania and, since the pandemic, Massachusetts — while you’re living and working elsewhere.

Affordable housing is needed for poor people. Poor people stay in expensive areas because that's where jobs and social benefits are. If you don't need office towers, it is mostly because you don't have a big number of jobs there anymore. And with that, you don't have a big number of secondary jobs which affordable housing clients work (food industry, janitors, etc). You also lose the tax base (lower property tax, lower sales tax) and poof goes the revenue which funds social programs most utilized by those who need affordable housing.

In short, if a city finds itself not needing office towers, most probably it won't be able to afford affordable housing neither.
