My actual choices are: Debian for servers and tinkering hardware (including derivatives such as Armbian on non x86 embedded boards), Alpine on small servers and very small/older hardware and Manjaro on my laptops and PCs that I convert to Linux for other people, relatives etc. So far I've been very happy with these three choices, and Manjaro helped a lot to introduce Linux to non tech people.

Several comments have mentioned that culling cats in response to covid didn't happen but I had reason to walk the streets of London in the relevant years and I have only just begun seeing mostly very young domestic cats around the town in recent months. Like pretty much everything Boris Johnson claimed he has said, I have a very strong suspicion the culling of domestic cats did happen in London England. That, or COVID-22 is lethal to all living things. I'm going with both those statements being true on the evidence I've seen.

Edit : red: " covid lethal to all living things " the insect population of the city of London vanished towards the end of the official pandemic measures. Maybe the job was considered done because only this January the most lethal covid variant was culling infants and young children in Japan killing in under two weeks through multiple organ failure and the day after NKK broke the story Rishi Sunak the prime minister of the UK ordered air routes to and from Japan to be fully opened up from lockdown rules completely without any review.

It's an alpha, but I think what matters is what the problems are and how realistic Tesla's approach to them & the design process is. Basically are they going to actually fix enough of these important structural issues before production, or will the first batch be problem prone whilst they work out the remaining issues?

Tesla's issue is that it's delivery time line claims have often proved to be ridiculous and potentially disingenuous. Cybertruck production was meant to have started 1.5 years ago, instead they were only at alpha. Current production estimate is sometime 2024, maybe, who knows? Does Tesla actually admit to themselves and also investors what the realistic timeline is?

Tesla has deviated substantially from the classic car manufacturing processes, which reintroduces problems long ago solved by the classic car manufacturers. So when a long time engineer says "These are classic mechanical automotive engineering challenges that you have in pretty much any vehicle. I'm blown away that they would be struggling so much with the basics." I'm not too surprised. Get a car to market from design to prototype takes roughly 5+/-1 years, Tesla should be expected to take more time to reinvent the proverbial wheel, regardless of their CEO who consistently expects Tesla to be quicker than traditional manufacturers.
Yes, thank you. That's definitely a better option. And less hassle (and smalle risk of possible blowback) than making media (MSM or social) storm.

If you want to look at mappings for individual tokens, sure, but if you actually want to tokenize text that contains more than 1 token, the process is very non trivial. I've been writing my own JavaScript LLaMA tokenizer for several days now (just the encode and decode functions, not training). I hope to release it this weekend.

It's one of many.

I really don't know why you are so willing to limit yourself at this stage to the best possible forecast for one of the least developed possibilities, while dismissing the ones which have both a large install base and long-term growth trends to extrapolate from.

I'm not going to put all my eggs (investments, small though they are) into one basket, regarding which I expect to "win". Nothing you said caused that, because it's usually me defending H2 from people who think it "can't ever lead" when the evidence is "hasn't been leading recently". You're making just as significant error but by dismissing everything except H2.

I'm reminded of the late 90s, when headlines proclaimed Wicca was the fastest growing religion, and my dad pointed out to me that going from 1 to 2 is a 100% growth rate.

So you want structural typing, but for native?

Funny, the fact that typescript is "only" structurally typed is one of my main pain points with the language. (Of course it's tons better than vanilla JS)
My take on this is that nobody sees themself as being responsible for developing or cultivating a "manager" as such. Company culture is usually something like "we build widgets, not managers. Let's focus on making everyone the best widget builder possible." Take my field as an example. The executive public defender absolutely does manage managers: her direct reports are supervising attorneys or bureau chiefs or whatever. But she sees her job as managing public defenders.

For that reason, training for public defender managers is usually legal training and subject-matter-specific leadership training. For example, we get a lot of training time on how to support lawyers through burnout. It is almost unheard of that we would get training on abstract or generalist management practices. Executives see it as off-mission and managers think it's a waste of time.

This problem is exacerbated by being a correct strategy at a certain (small) organizational scale, but the paradigm falls out of alignment as the organization grows. It's hard to build an intentional culture of management in an already-existing organization.
Just damage control at this point.

Indoor air is heated but not humidified. Relative humidity outside is high, but the temperature is very cold, so the absolute amount of water in the air is very low. Bring that same air indoors, heat it up by ~150 degrees Fahrenheit, and the resulting relative humidity is very low.

Hard to measure at such low numbers. I have a handful of cheap consumer-grade sensors with me, and they all report "0%" or "lower limit" or equivalent. I can't share readings from official NSF-owned equipment.

Static buildup is a real issue. It's muscle memory now for me to ground myself before touching any electronics. There's makeshift grounding points (metal tape, metal frames, etc) everywhere. I'm still not used to the little shocks every time.

I humidify my bedroom at night using portable humidifiers. This takes ~1.5 gallons of water per night, which is deemed an acceptable use of water. Most people do this. I can get my room up to ~15% humidity with a reasonable amount of effort. The difference in sleep quality is noticeable.

Frost buildup is a real issue in humidified spaces, given the temperature gradient to the outside, even with triple-pane windows. The greenhouse has no exterior windows, so this isn't a problem.

The greenhouse is kept at ~25% relative humidity. It's the only place on station with infrastructure in place to provide humidity directly through the HVAC system.
Yeah, they're probably somewhat bloated like Twitter was, just like Twitter they don't deliver nearly as many new features to justify the large employee count, they don't do much of their own moderation either.

A large portion of those might be for checking reports etc, since reddit at least does seem to do a slightly better job trying to keep humans in the loop there.

I didn't realize Reddit API development was "forced".

Whether they enjoy it or not is beside the point.

Moderators are providing value to Reddit. If all mods quit, and no one stepped up to take their place, what would happen? Now who deserves to take profit monetarily for that value?

As far as Reddit "development" they should have stopped a long time ago, the site is horrible to use and has been for a long time.

Your argument is essentially that scientists, especially early career scientists, have very little room for failure. I would argue a central problem is that many grants for early career researchers have award rates below 10%. This is problematic because at some point why would you blow away a month of work to write a proposal that you gave a tiny chance of receiving. If the award rates were 20-30%, then you have more room for failure in the interim between grant awards.

> People said the same about the first iPhone.

That must have been an extremely tiny minority of people who wrote off the first iPhone.

Apple solved an actual problem in an actually existing huge market, i.e. how to maximize screen space while having a full keyboard in a tiny phone-size device. Everyone and their mother already had a cellphone, and then they switched to iPhone, or Android when they made the switch to all screen smartphones. Everyone switched! People with clamshells switched. People with Blackberries switched. People with Nokia Communicators switched. People with simple featurephones switched. Big screen + an app store was leaps and bounds better for everyone, regardless of how they used their phones.

There is no huge VR headset market. Everyone does not have a VR headset. Everyone isn't already using a VR headset for stuff, but are annoyed at how sucky the existing ones are, and are waiting for Apple to "fix" the market. If you own an Oculus right now, why would you switch?

There's simply no way you can make the case that Apple Vision is as disruptive as the iPhone was, and that therefore all the naysayers are wrong. It's just as gimmicky as all the other VR headsets, the use cases are just as convoluted as the others, there's nothing setting it apart from the competition, except the price and some tech specs. The iPhone introduced a new paradigm. What does Apple Vision introduce?
I brought up the percentage of subreddits, which does matter, because it determines how many subreddits remain to fall back to. The activity level of the subreddits who are blacking out, however, doesn’t matter for that, and it was pb7 who brought that up, not me.
You still need a way of normalizing expressions that is consistent with your runtime. To say that types ((x: bool) => F<true && x>) and ((x: bool) => F<false || x>) are the same, wrt judgemental equality, requires normalizing both to ((x: bool) => F<x>).
I have a 3060 (the smallest from the series, I believe, but still expensive enough) but I only bought it because my old card did have some errors. I don't play that much anymore, but I use it most extensively for image synthesis. I put hours into that...

The small series still have at least some resemblance of a decent price/performance deal. Wouldn't mind some VT100 model, but the prices are just way out of line.

The decline might just indicate that the pricing is wrong. The new cards also have less vram for some reason. I got mine with 12gb and most 4xxx cards only have 8. That would suck for image synthesis again.
Yes exactly. Doing SWE as a 'contractor' type as a tradesman, very difficult because you have to find customers, and most customers have software teams and aren't just calling up SWE to work a few days. Trades have easier time being expert at X, and people can call them up and get them immediately to do X.

I just deleted my account of 9+ years with a good number of comments.

The reason is simple: I don't know of any other way for me as a user to actually do anything against Reddit, aside from not using it. But I hate the idea of a company doing a successful rug-pull while profiting off my thoughts and ideas. Sure, it's a bummer that the info is lost - but I feel that every small bit of success they have now will increase the likelihood of something like this happening again in the future.
Does bimetallic strip have some kind of passive hysteresis? Because what I observed with my shredder is that, if the overheat protection kicks in, it won't turn on for the next 20-30 minutes. You can flip the switch, or even unplug it from mains, doesn't make a difference - it won't turn on for almost half an hour.

Now, that could be explained by e.g. the engine itself having enough thermal capacity to keep the shutoff switch active for a while, except... if you are careful and do small pauses between shreddings, you can keep going indefinitely - and those pauses don't feel enough to let the engine cool if that was the only thing that mattered.

Like, you shred something for 3 minutes straight and get 30 minutes cutoff, vs. shredding something for 1 minute, then 30 seconds break, then 1 minute, then 30 seconds break, ... and you can keep going like that for hours.

Hi, I am currently looking for a job in some creative industry which has a positive impact on the society. Not interested in adtech, fintech or cryptotech, I am sorry.

Location: Slovakia
Remote: Yes
Willing to relocate: Possibly
Technologies: primarily Python (and Django), some TypeScript (mostly Node.js backend), little Go
Résumé/CV: https://pbasista.gitlab.io/website/cv.pdf
Email: pbasista@gmail.com

My background is in theoretical computer science. I have ~10 YoE working as a software developer. Mostly in backend roles and mostly in Python. So far I have worked mainly in the fintech industry and I am looking for a change. I am very willing to learn anything new I am missing.

I would like working e.g. on some low-level code optimizations, with closer-to-hardware languages, possibly with embedded devices. I am primarily looking for a job that I would like and where I would be happy to get involved in deeper and help make the product better.
HN is /r/all.

If not in the content-mix sense, then in the sense that there is one and only one homepage, and that it's everything posted to the site.

Though in truth: there are some alternate views. "Pool", "Invited", and "Best" are subsets of submissions. You can also do a blank search on Algolia and set a time window to view the best items of the past day, week, month, year, or other arbitrary interval.

The title is essentially clickbait. From the article:

> Google is the latest company to tighten its return-to-work policies to get workers to commute more often. In an internal email, the company said it could make office attendance an element of an employee’s performance review if they did not comply with the three-day minimum for in-office work, reports the Wall Street Journal.

Why, yes: if you don't come to the office as often as your employer wants you to, you'll get in trouble.
You are almost correct, though it doesn't happen at character level, it happens at byte level. Most characters are in LLaMA tokenizer's vocabulary, but all characters aren't. So if you use a character that was uncommon in the training material, it will fall back to byte-level tokens. In most cases 1 character can be represented as 1 byte (and thus 1 byte-level token). However, some characters require more than 1 byte in UTF-8; those characters might end up with as much as 4 tokens.

Yeah, I think "types that generateS" is either a typo or sloppy English; it should be "types that generate".

I often wonder why it's so common for programmers with an acute awareness and mastery of syntax and grammar in programming languages to just throw all that precision and attention to detail out the window when it comes to natural language.
It should be fine to use colors for elements on the light theme, as far as accessibility is concerned. Colored text is not a very good idea, but everything else is up to your artistic vision.

On the topic of the theme and colors, I think the trick for keeping elements distinct despite low contrast, is to have fewer "levels" of elements. Modern "flat" designs keep very low contrast between the actual page background and any organization elements (containers, panels etc) and only give high contrast to the "main" elements, such as the primary text content and whatever element is currently selected. For example, on a page with a "download" button it's a good idea to give that one button a high contrast scheme, instead of all buttons on the page. Contrast can be done between light and dark, between gray and color, or between color and a different color.

Another thought I had about light/dark theme, is that dark theme is often modeled after a colorful console terminal, where technicolor colors are used to draw attention to different types of messages, or as blinking LEDs on a device front panel, so that gives extremely high contrast between the (basically invisible) bg and the object. Light mode, otoh, is often modeled after a book or a newspaper, or some other physical medium, where there is one basic color for text and the background does the heavy lifting - bright for bulk text, colored for special notices or announements, pale for uninteresting stuff, etc.

Don't leave us hanging like that. Would you mind sharing an example?
Easy: because TypeScript or Python are way easier to learn than C. Learning C is a long, arduous, uphill battle against arcane error messages and undefined behaviour.

Unless you have a background in C/C++ already, most people can probably get up and running with something like this way, way faster.
