Yeah, I'm not gonna run out and buy a new Macbook just to wipe it. But these M1 machines are going to be things you just have lying around sometime soon. If my wife upgrades, for example, I know exactly what I'm doing with her M1 Air. :D

Same here. Instead, I get to pay for ChatGPT and have people tell me it’s inferior.
More specifically, Steve Jobs founded NeXT after Apple pushed him out in the late 80s.

A decade or so later, Apple was on the tail end of a long, slow, downward slide. The team wasn't happy with the current state of their Mac operating system, and bought out NeXT to use their software as the basis of its replacement (Mac OS X).

Jobs, as CEO of NeXT, came back to Apple as a consultant, but was CEO again in a matter of years.
Theft is the taking of property without consent. I argue that engaging in theft gives implicit consent to be stolen from, after all if you felt theft is bad you wouldn't of engaged in it. Therefore stealing from a thief isn't really stealing.

Same goes for violence, if you had a problem with violence you wouldn't have engaged in violence, now that you have, let's be violent together.
And there we go. The promise of a form of cash outside of USA government control is terrifying to the USA government. And well, most other governments too.

It is pretty obvious that when the USA government goes after crypto exchanges, what matters is to get the exchange shut down. The actual justification for doing so is an afterthought.

I'm torn on the issue of whether dematerialized privacy-preserving cash (and yeah, I know crypto exchanges had very little to do with that) is even a good thing to begin with. To me the strongest argument for it is that the crimes that would be facilitated by that are already trivial, as long as you're rich enough. You don't need Monero when you can "sell" a Monet in exchange for services instead. It is incredibly hypocritical of governments to complain that privacy-preserving currencies enable criminals when they have done literally nothing to stop the numerous convenient ways to launder money that are accessible only to rich and powerful people.
Go and take a look at the long term price of bitcoin. How anyone can lose money in that market is beyond me.
> maybe more surprising is the increase on a Sunday

I don't think that seems surprising. People working office jobs through the week go out and drink more on a Friday and Saturday night, and those of a more sporty bent will often push their bodies more at the weekend because that is when they can find the time for longer or multiple training sessions, and it is where you find organised events (the highest proportion of runs are on a Sunday, with the second highest being Saturday).

I think it is my duty to speak out against the terror and genocide of the Soviet Union, lest it becomes forgotten. Millions were executed or sent to concentration camps for speaking out, so I guess getting silenced on HN is a cheap price to pay. My own people were genocided in Stalins Soviet Union, how could I be silent?

Right, but she could reject or ignore my request.
I noticed. Was wondering if it was recorded before the controversy began or if it was shoehorned in there to give 'em some support.
And how many units have they brought, in total?
A question where answering easily implies past behavior is very different from one that does not. "Do you think it is ok to beat your spouse?" better not get any slow rolled answer, and is more comparable here.

Hell, I'd be fine with a hedged answer of "it can be." That would make a ton of sense and would make sense. Akin to asking "is it speeding to drive your car at 40?" The answer would be "in certain situations, certainly. Can be too fast and it can be too slow." So an answer of "I can't answer without more context" would be fine.

None of that is what I saw.
You might not be taking crazy pills - but your list of complaints is a very individual one. Headsets may give you personally headaches, nausea, eye strain, neck pain, and acne. But they don't for me, and they don't for any of my friends, or many of my colleagues. And I get motion sickness trying to play many video games.

The only thing stopping me from working for extended periods inside one of the headsets I currently own is the fact that the resolution they run at is too low for me to put enough text on the screen. I can absolutely believe that a headset with a higher resolution would make that use case viable for me.

It seems more likely to me that the reviewers who are hopeful about the product after their 30 minutes of use of the headset (some of whom are indeed very experienced users of AR/VR hardware) simply don't struggle with the individual issues that you have.
They are expensive but 10X certainly seems like a stretch. Show me comparably specd hardware only 10% the price of an Apple machine?

Very good points. People often go a long way to argue against the Howey test. The best example is Howey Co case.
If someone is a lawyer dealing in securities and acting as an advisor I would have expected them to be familiar with the law. Coinbase issuing public statements to SEC “tell us what is a security” were basically a ploy or the lawyers involved were extremely inexperienced.

> The problem is that for AMD it's not a good business decision.

The PS5 and XboxX have an AMD APU (CPU+IGPU) with a wide memory interface. Seems like a fine decision. What surprises me is they haven't brought it to low/medium range desktops, until Strix Halo in 2024.
I agree, it's a complicated mess and you'll always have to battle around the reality that is human nature. I think this and yesterday's news do highlight that the SEC are capable of making the right decisions though.
I assume the audience is the Disneys/Pixars of the world, and the people making ads, etc in 8K. They presumably need that I/O. For them the absurdly expensive monitor is a rounding error, and the extra local disk is worth it over running over a SAN. Perhaps also some computationally adjacent applications like CFD or weather prediction.

I struggle to think of anyone else with such an application. There are applications that could benefit from the features but it wouldn’t be cost effective (e.g. something more systolic where it’s better to rent cloud service, even if it were nominally slower, because once you’re done you don’t have the hardware lying around).

Does an Apple Watch actually tell you if you are?
So implement it in chromium, and the conversation can move to "why is Chrome not adopting this feature that is already compatible with the codebase?"
But what on earth is a digital commodity? I think the whole concept of digital commodity is nonsensical.

A commodity is a product. Products are either consumed or used as raw materials. A digital commodity is not a product. It can't be consumed or used, because it's entirely imaginary.

I think a better term is "abstract unit of account".
Yep, it will be interesting to see – Apple Watch can already monitor for atrial fibrillation: https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT212214. Though, it looks like the patient must already have a diagnosis from a doctor. So rather than diagnosing, it's sort of an AF tracker - which is useful as AF can come and go.

The problem obviously with heart attacks is the implications of false negatives and positives are huge, and the tracing from a watch would be less reliable than the gold-standard ECG / EKG.
You can create a reddit account without giving out email but when payments come into picture you are not anonymous anymore.This will limit anonymous or throwaway accounts to official apps which again have tons of tracking.

I hope they also figure out a way to use apps while preserving the anonymity like revenue sharing or ads etc.
>they should have two formats anyway

Good thing JXL has the best progressive support of any image format available! [0, 1] Something which you can only find partially with incremental decoding in WebP and doesn't really exist in AVIF (just one of the many limitations of being bolted onto a video codec). You might often reconsider having both versions of a file with this capability. (which wasn't exploited much or at all with "dumber" and heavier progressive JPEGs)

Every employee at Open AI gets their current comp for the next seven years. The idea is to turn this into an open library or model in its entirety so that anyone can run it on their own harwdware and so that training costs go down more.
This is the best overview I've ever read on these experiments.

> But some of the dropout rats did something different. Instead of carrying dirt out bit by bit, they packed it all into a ball and rolled it out the tunnel in one trip. An enthused Calhoun compared this innovation to humankind inventing the wheel. And it happened only because the rats were isolated from the main group and didn’t learn the dominant method of digging. By normal rat standards, this was deviant behavior. It was also a creative breakthrough. Overall, then, Calhoun argued that social strife can sometimes push creatures to become smarter, not dumber.

> Calhoun’s big takeaway involved status. Again, the males who lost the fights for dominance couldn’t leave to start over elsewhere. As he saw it, they were stuck in pathetic, humiliating roles and lacked a meaningful place in society. The same went for females when they couldn’t nurse or raise pups properly. Both groups became depressed and angry, and began lashing out. In other words, because mice are social animals, they need meaningful social roles to feel fulfilled.

Perhaps to generalize, animals (including people) need meaningful niches, whether social or not. If you force animals to be social then these roles must be social roles, but if they are not in a forced social situation then these roles need to be personally fulfilling in a non-social manner.

Let me rewrite this to be a bit more explicit:

For every cranky guy warning against "apparently theoretical problem which is not immediately affecfting our daily life", society will contain some other people who criticize the idea for being wasteful, or anticipating problems that won't occur, or won't have nearly the impact claimed, and will push back.

For some subset of the warnings, they are legitimate and represent rational response to rare, but impactful events. Identifying and planning for existential threats is something that successful societies do. Only extremely unlucky societies that fail to plan survive while those that do plan are statistically more likely to survive.

I don't think we exist in a time and place where if you say "we should multi-home humanity to solve the meteor problem" will lead to people spending trillions on mars bases, though.
The important consideration here is that these people are on the cusp of death already, and this is typically just the straw that broke the camel's back. You don't get a heart attack from one bad night of sleep, of course, unless there are significant underlying conditions.

That's frustrating. Having a royalty free, high quality, video codec is great. But it shouldn't prevent us having a significantly better still image format.

Curious: is "bitcoin" being used by the SEC as a general term to mean "all cryptos that fundamentally employ a work-based consensus algorithm", or "pure" cryptos or whatever? Or is it not yet clear to the SEC that there are more instances of Nakamoto consensus networks out there and not everything other than BTC is a security?

I agree that staked projects and derivative projects are securities since they are fundamentally a representation of or proxy for the actual thing of value, BTC, XCH, formerly ETH, etc.
They need to do more than try to get things more legalized. They have to succeed. Or they get sued for breaking the law. If people don't agree that it should be legal, then oh well. That's the risk.

> Why not be feature complete?

Because this code will be exposed on every single webpage you load, and historically these kind of parsers have had a number of security problems.

Something something memory safety, but this is the situation that currently exists.

"All the image parsers" would be a very bad idea. Years ago there was a bug in some Linux setups where all gstreamer codecs were exposed in Firefox, and it was a huge problem (similar: https://lwn.net/Articles/708196/ – although the one I remember is much older, around 2010 or so).

It's not really comparable to all the old terminfo entries from decades ago: the vendor controls those terminfo entries, not $random_websites. Maybe the ncurses terminfo parser actually does have some buffer overflow (there's an entire mini-programming language in terminfo), but if it does it's not really a huge acute problem.

This is an article about darknet markets, and when I hear "darknet markets" I think of drugs. The impression I get from Bruce Schneier's blog is that other shady stuff like stealing credit cards or murder-for-hire sites (which are all fake) mostly happens on the clearnet. So it was odd to see someone make the casual jump from darknet markets to theft/murder.

> Global usage data

> Local usage data

Okay, I'm gonna stop right here:

Firstly, this would require re-training and tuning the model CONSTANTLY. Which is computationally expensive, on top of the already expensive running of the trained model. So this isn't happening, least of all in a local context.

Secondly, regarding global data, that would also require IMMENSE data cleanup, otherwise it would run the risk of training the model on less than desirable input. https://mashable.com/article/meta-facebook-ai-chatbot-racism...

Thirdly, we haven't even talked about the legal implications of using global usage data for training the next generation of models. I would love seeing corporations trying to explain that to, say, the EU regulators, with regards to the GDPR.

> Alas, OSS devs tend to get bored on 'non-sexy' subjects.

I have already given an example for an OSS software product in the generative AI space with superb UX. I can produce countless other examples across all realms of software. Take a look at Krita. The Dolphin file browser. The entire KDE deskop environment. Libreoffice. Firefox. Blender.

And btw. there are also countless commercial products with horrible UX.

> SD is way more in tune, subject is way more popular with devs I guess.

SD benefits from having a base model that already meets or exceeds the performance of closed source models. I see no reason why devs wouldn't be equally motivated when a sufficiently advanced LLM base model comes along.

> Deploying an app requires more friction.

Why? App stores exist.
Features == potential bugs. That's why. You're increasing your attack surface for critical infrastructure for many - you better be doing a cost/benefit analysis.
Occam's Razor suggests the former. Here is a perfunctory "I don't know you" - nothing below may be applicable.

There are power-hungry mods, no doubt. They can be politically oriented in either direction, or sometimes just like to be the monarch. But I've been around reddit for over 15 years now, and in my view if you're regularly being accused of being toxic, I'm inclined to believe that you're the cause. And it may not be due to the factual nature of your posts, but the manner in which you share them.

Again, I don't know you, and my experience certainly can't generalize to everyone else. I was a mod for about six months, hated it, but that gave me all the insight I need into how dishonest (or possibly not at all self-aware) people can be when recounting how they were "wronged."
I feel it gives me about a 30% lift on mechanical tasks and a 60% lift on learning / unblocking in areas of ambiguity. I use GPT for the mechanical tasks and ChatGPT for the learning tasks. An example of the learning would be “explain to me the use of Box::pin in the context of rust futures” or some such, but also sometimes some common idiom I’m brain farting on. Searching Kagi will yield the answers, just more slowly and deeply embedded in some document or stackoverflow answer vomit requiring lot of wasted effort that fully distracts me from my flow. The fact I can ask follow up questions on areas of ambiguity is useful. When it hallucinates it generally means I’m in an area that’s either undefined as of yet, or is really niche. The nice thing about programming is hallucination feedback is basically instant so I then pull out Kagi and research a bit, and maybe 90% of the time it’s just not possible.

There has been some work done on generating code in a feedback cycle to winnow out hallucinations and it seems to work fairly well [1]- I think 99% of the challenges LLM face are primarily related to a lack of constraint, optimization, agency, and solver feedback. As they get integrated into a system with the ability to inform and constrain and guide using classic AI techniques their true value will be attainable. But they’re pretty useful even today.

N.b., I’m a 32 year veteran distinguished engineer level at FAANG and adjacent firms that programs daily.

Judging by their writings, longtermists take the point of view that it's acceptable to basically ignore the real problems of today in order to address fantasy problems in the distant future.

That seems like a poor idea to me.
To say that climate change is not an "existential risk" is not the same as saying that it's not a massive problem, or that we should not address it, right?
This gets mentioned basically every time. The gist is that:

- OpenGL is a much easier target to support, in terms of having a functional desktop. Remember, hardware-accelerated apps have been runnable on Asahi for months now, while Vulkan support is still a while away.
- Most of the work being done is common to OpenGL and Vulkan, so it's not exactly a ton of wasted effort.
Ask HN: How do you measure and report SLA to customers?
I'm curious to know how you all measure and report SLA metrics to customers. We run a SMS gateway for critical services (2FA, OTP and the like) and we measure our SLA metrics with a bunch of scripts in python and bash. Reporting to customers is just sending them an email with an excel attachment with the computed SLA for a given period (usually monthly)

Is there any frameworks or tools you use to measure and report SLA performance to customers ? Some kind of SLA dashboard.

Note that we use site24x7 for monitoring our services. They do have some SLA reports and dashboard, but I am thinking in specific tools just to ingest metrics and compute SLAs

Any insights you can provide will be greatly appreciated!
