Why can't the engines support both at the same time? One is syntactic sugar over the other.

I see libraries providing dist files for both and node refusing to run if you don't name your file one way or the other and it seems like a fight over something without distinction.

As ridiculous as having to decide if you can only use while loops or for loops. Support both.
E.U. Parliament approves landmark AI Act, challenging tech giants’ power

thats a very big deal for a lot of the content you find on reddit which users might want to get answers from from an AI.
haha, it makes sense this is on a site with “consulting” in the name—its unrealistic and pointless. the M. Night Shyamalan twist is that the whole thing is the “horror” portion.

in the story our protagonist has no knowledge of the service she is on call for and displays no ability to troubleshoot, reason about, or understand the issue she’s responding to.

instead, she clicks a series of buttons in a runbook to resolve the most basic and most happy-path production issue you’ll ever see.

aaaaand this is about devops how?
What you're looking at is pretty much concurrent programming.

I would like to be compensated for the digital oil I've produced.
Yeah, the documentation aspect is something that I started thinking about recently. That's why, currently, Vrite is more optimized for programming/developer marketing blogs rather than documentations. I'm working on proper API docs (Swagger is pretty much a better-than-nothing placeholder), these wouldn't be served by Vrite.

In basically all technical marketing teams I've worked in, things weren't as automated as you might think. Kanban was only there to manage content production stages, while the actual content was to be written in the Dropbox Paper, Notion, GDocs, etc. just to be able to collaborate and go through the review process. In the end the content had to be copy-pasted to WordPress, Ghost, etc. in an entirely manual process with many formatting issues happening in the process.

In environment you're describing Vrite would indeed be a much "harder sell". Making users move to new tool is difficult in general. That said, with proper integrations and import tools, Vrite could be an "incrementally-adoptable" CMS, that you can transition to at your own pace.
I am responding to your comment above:

I've worked in this space and I've heard all of the argument

> [require] is a magic function with untold side effects

Sure, how about making it standard with a new directive? "use require" or something like that. Now require is special. You can't redefine it etc
> Who's next? Apple? Microsoft?

I genuinely can't tell if this is a shitpost or not, because yes absolutely we should target Apple and M$ as well.
I have nod idea, it was a random business as an example haha.
Do you have any citations to back up “SF is just as bad as X city?” I travel a lot as work out of a SF office. It really is a lot worse than say Los Angeles which is a high bar to cross. I think the biggest difference between SF and other cities is that SF supports criminals. Car break ins are not investigated. Shoplifting is legal. Drug use is effectively legal. Physical assault/robbery is effectively legal for some cohorts. Criminals come to SF for these reasons. It’s lawlessness supported by the city council. And they’re currently talking about giving every black resident $6M dollars because of the California slave trade, mind you slavery was never in CA. But this is what the city council is interested in. These people are interested in exacerbating the problem, not fixing it. I keep thinking there’s some threshold, but there isn’t, SF seems destined to become like Detroit.
The appeal is that now regular search engines are so bad at giving you useful content that using a LLM is now the equivalent of "google-dorking" to find relevant information.

Show HN: YABin – Yet another pastebin that's simple but feature-rich
I've been self-hosting https://privatebin.net for a long time now but there were some annoying issues: no way to turn off encryption, API is complicated, no raw support on the page directly and worst of all: no keyboard shortcuts. I've looked at a bunch of other OSS solutions and all of them (atleast the ones I could find) didn't really have all the features that I needed.

So I made this. Optional E2E encryption with optional password protection, keyboard shortcuts (kinda a WIP), simple-ish REST-ish API for making CLIs, direct raw file display & download (with optional server-side decryption if it is encrypted), etc. It was built with SvelteKit so it can be deployed on server-less platforms too.

I'd love if you could provide feedback on which features are necessary (should I add support for files?) and which ones are useless. I'm not a cybersec guy so I'm not sure if I'm doing the encryption properly, so if you can please review this file: https://github.com/Yureien/YABin/blob/main/src/lib/crypto.ts. The initialization vector gets stored on the DB to result in a shorter URL and ensure it's unique, is that a good approach?

Product management isn’t (or shouldn’t be) a people management position. It’s a cross between inbound marketing, product design, and high-level prioritization/planning.

Done well, it’s essential to creating products people love. Unfortunately, it’s easy to do poorly. Done poorly, it looks like bad project management: shuffling Gantt charts and micromanaging engineers.

Wow that may be the dumbest thing I’ve heard today
I’m not sure exactly what the moat would be here—the current data is already probably available, and future data OpenAI will have to pay for just like everyone else.

Ok, looking closer at the article I see

> The important piece is that it’s easiest for OpenAI to get the data (given that companies with co-investors help each other)

which seems like a pretty weak basis to form a moat (if Reddit IPOs as is their plan, sama’s influence will be not nearly as strong)
I like the approach you've taken here where it's more of the complete content production and publishing service.

Two things I couldn't really sort out from your docs or the site:

1. Is there support for uploading images? How is that handled?

2. Is there support for "table" data. An example: I'd like to have my headless CMS keep a list of conferences with fields for start_date, end_date and other attributes and then reference that in my site.

Thanks!
(I know it's a satire)

It's quite naive if someone think all the major tech big boys who have at least moderate ambitions about AI haven't already at least archived Wikipedia, Reddit and StackOverflow.
The problem lies in the radiators. Heat pumps can not "lift" the temperature more than 30-40 degrees Celsius without getting inefficient. So at -5°C outside, you can only warm water up to 35°C. At this temperature, your old radiator doesn't transfer enough energy from the 35°C warm water to the 20°C room. You would need to either heavily insulate your house or replace the radiators.
People who are traumatized by something should seek therapy and perhaps avoid places where they are exposed to that (although perhaps the opposite is better). Demanding others to adapt their culture to fit you is a good way to actually be hated.

It's funny that you mention recipes at the end because that's exactly what I like to use ChatGPT for. Every single recipe site has been so corrupted by SEO that you need to scroll past 12 paragraphs of nonsense to get to the actual recipe, and more often than not once you actually get to the recipe part you'll be bombarded with popups about newsletters and cookies or some late-loading ad will cause the view to shift past the step you're trying to look at.

ChatGPT is great for distilling that experience down to just a simple recipe for whatever it is I'm looking for.

Tangentially: props to AnyList for their amazing plugin that scrapes recipes off of sites like this and stores them in an easy-to-use format.
> Since when does Reddit block links to broken websites, though?

Looks like they're going full Twitter now, first they go after the API users, then they remove links to their fediverse alternative. What's the next step then?
Why would you want to scroll horizontally? Or are you referring to the code samples? It's only a code "sample" (i.e. non-working just to show off the platform), so fingerprint would likely come from something like https://github.com/denisbrodbeck/machineid.

I doubt the source and its interpretation. LAION, one major open source developer, just didnt complain about the AI Act and they would be one affected by the law.
people won’t care about Reddit’s internal governance policy when researching mattress toppers, but they will care about finding relevant, recent information. The gamble Reddit is taking is “do we think we can provide a competitive user experience and ecosystem without 3rd party developers?”. If the answer is yes, people will keep using and contributing to Reddit and it will remain a valuable source of information regardless of the lack of 3rd party apps. It could pay off, but if the Googles and Metas of the world just start offering AI training data as a product, it wouldn’t really benefit OpenAI if Reddit in particular locked down some older data at the expense of it’s user base.

Time will tell if the move will work out for Reddit in the long term.
Because at the end of the day its whether your shipping something worthwhile that matters. Not how much you code, nor the brain farts of execs.

Paying for someone who can increase the efficiency of a bunch of other highly paid people is a sound investment. Not that this happens often in reality! A shit show is a shit show even with a paid cat-herder. But it can work very well given the right circumstances.
>When you produce your HTML on the server side, on the other hand, the developer creating that HTML can have full access to the data store and take advantage of, for example, joins and aggregation functions in SQL stores.

This article is surreal. It feels like I just woke up in the year 2003. Why are we actively promoting old architectures that were abandoned for very good reasons?

If your use case requires SSR for some reason, then sure. But the vast majority of SPAs are an order of magnitude more efficient to work on than the old paradigm of PHP/JSP/ASP/Whatever server pages (i.e. what things like htmx are reinventing, but this time in JavaScript!).
Looks like they do offer now I just checked and you can register a .la domain.
Neither is Google. If Google said they're going to disappear in 30 days, the world will move on and every single one of their services will be replaced.

That's basically the idea. Currently most useful when you're running a technical/developer marketing blog.
> I have read the book, and it is about sticking to your morals no matter how evil the world will become.

What morals? They stole other peoples stuff. They abandoned the poor people in the basement to die at the hands of the cannibals. They "helped" the guy they met on the road but that was due to childish naivety of the son. It was superficial and meaningless help. The book was entirely about amoral animalistic survival than morality. Notice how it was mostly the son who wanted to be "moral". If anything, the book is saying being moral is childish in an amoral world.

If anything, it showed the inability to stick morals. The most important "moral" of the story was the father's promise to the son and his wife, not to let the son fall into the hands of the cannibals. Throughout the book the father promises to kill them both if it came to that. In the end, the father couldn't bring himself to kill the son and left him to the cannibals who were hunting him.

In your response, you say we don't know whether the "good guys" got him or the "bad guys" did. It's obvious the "bad guys" got him. On your first reading, it isn't clear, but after subsequent readings, it is obvious there are no good guys left and the cannibals who were hunting ( or possibly other cannibals ) them got him.

> That is the message of the book.

If that was the message, the book showed how stupid and pointless it was. Not that it was a good thing. If there was a "message", it was that the mother was right and the father was wrong. But that isn't the message either.

Rather than taking the book for it is, people are trying to find a positive message to make themselves feel better. That's a childish notion. Not everything is a disney movie. Not everything has to have a happy ending or a positive message. You don't have to be uplifted or find morality in a book.
Yeah, it was mostly just a slow-burn misery-fest. Now that I think about it, I'm not sure I'd put it in the "good, but also horrible" category, exactly. Like, I don't think there's actually much to it other than the misery. Not like a Funny Games, say, that's thoroughly miserable but also doing some other, interesting things that both justify and require the misery.
It's an easy way of getting paid more while doing less actual work. Obviously most senior people want to become product managers since they know they will have more to say and get compensated for it.

Your feedback will be hugely helpful.
You should check out the thread, lots of people throwing themselves in front of the firing line because I guess they think that messing with Google will somehow translate to messing with their own startups or whatever.
I agree with you but not in entirety. This comment from spez[0] about blaming the API price changes on LLM's is too far fetched.

A lot of commenters here on HN have already pointed that out already too. Unless they build a literal brick wall (paywall) around the site, that data can and will get scraped if the intention is to use for a model.

You could get it down to a science where you only scrape any new data whenever you train the next model.

This has predominantly been my experience over the years. A great a PM is worth their weight in gold though!
I like HackerNews because the conversations are mostly intelligent and polite. Not always, but it’s far better than my experience with Twitter and Reddit.
This post is wrong on several aspects the other commenters have already pointed out, but it raises this tangential point which I'm curious about

"They could buy out more 3rd party clients, which would somewhat appease the community. This would be a terrible move IPO-wise."

Why would this be a terrible move IPO wise? If Reddit has two major apps, one for casual users and one for power-users, and it has enough control to eventually put (tasteful) ads in both, how is that bad for their IPO? I don't think it's likely, given how much goodwill they've already burned with the community, but from a pure IPO perspective it seems like a solid go forward strategy

PMs are such a hit or miss. I have not seen an average PM in my career. They either are incredibly talented and they can move mountains out of the way of making a great product, or they are a complete black hole of resources focusing on gantt charts and project updates.
I don't think you're the minority. I want to actually read the thread and see what random individuals thought about a thing (with their different views intact), rather than getting an aggregate summary. Often the overlooked, 1 point comment (because he answered the question a month after the question was raised), is the one you're looking for.
The big takeaway here for me is to make liberal use of the phrase "Shoo, little people! Out of my way!" when they don't approve my code reviews.
Thanks. That shader doesn't seem to play nicely with some GPUs and I'm still working on edge cases. If possible, could you look at your console logs and email me your specs? They should be logged. Email is in bio. It should be doing automatic categorization of the GPU to determine render quality, but maybe something's still incorrect there.
Markdown is a format. Vrite is a headless CMS with many different features. On a side-note, the editor supports Markdown shortcuts and Markdown data exports.
The appeal is that AI answers your question. Maybe a wrong answer. Maybe from questionable sources.

Search, on the other hand, doesn't answer your question.
Just wanted to point this out in case you really didn’t see it:

> I long ago stopped using Reddit [except for volunteering to moderate free content for the platform], [consuming the main page content], and [using content from the platform in internet searches].

That’s a lot of usage for someone that stopped using it.

Also:

> Reddit as a platform means nothing to me, [except that it is the home of a niche hobby and we have no alternatives, or aren’t willing to relocate as a community].

Reading these statements really makes it seem like you contribute, use and rely on Reddit infrastructure, technology and platform as a whole.
> They could extend the June 30th deadline, which I think is likely. This would get rid of 3rd party apps while, perhaps, keeping most of the community intact.

I don't get what the author is trying to say here.

If the deadline was extended, why would it "get rid of 3rd party apps"? I assume because some (Apollo, RIF) said they're going to close anyway even if the deadline was extended? If so, the community will not be "intact".

If the author think the death of 3rd party won't affect the community, then Reddit don't need to extend the deadline.

> What is the term for when there's a worker strike and instead of engaging with organizers/union representatives, the company approaches some individual workers [...] to start an inner conflict between the workers and have the strike collapse on itself?

Standard operating procedure/business as usual.

That might be it. I’m not sure about devcontainers (I don’t use them) but as a data point I dual boot into kubuntu on an 7 year old i7 with 8 gigs of RAM and there are no responsive issues.

Honestly this sounds like a shower-thought post. With even basic research, Internet Archive and The Eye have Reddit historical data freely available. My desktop PC has all comments and posts from 2007-early 2023, in a convenient jsonl zst. It's only 3TB.
Simple: get the search results, have LLM read and evaluate them.
