That's how rich people stay rich. I've many a personal anecdote where I've been part of the staff working events for 1%ers where they are squabbling over prices just for the kicks of convincing someone else to take less money or the sense of getting something someone else wouldn't get. Then they joke about it with the friends. This is not unique to Elon by any stretch. He just does it in a much more public manner than I have ever seen. Even more blatant than Trump which is infamous for this business tactic.
It is the equivalent of TURTLE PISS!
I expect that AI will increase the need for human moderation. LLMs are better at producing passable spam than identifying it, so any gains in AI moderation will be more than offset. I actually worry that AI spam will become too powerful for even good human+AI moderation and we'll see the death of high quality open discussions online.
It already does too. Just remove the `type` bit and you have an alias for a union, which has been supported since typing was added (though the `|` syntax was only added in 3.10). And AFAIK the type checkers do handle completeness on unions.
Isn't that effectively what they are doing? The HTML-based API is apparently going to remain free, but makes no guarantees about structure consistency. If you want an API with certain structure stability guarantees then you have to pay up.

Is it possible that sales reps were using the publication of negative reviews by others as a tip-off of which businesses would then be more likely to purchase the service by which negative reviews could be removed? If so, the timing of those sales pitches along with negative reviews could make it seem like this is what was happening.
I have been using gpt4 to translate natural language to JSON already. And on v4 ( not v3) it hasn't returned any malformed JSON iirc
True story: one of my neighbors went to University of Chicago High School ("Uni High" as it's called). It was (and probably still is) a school for the extremely gifted. (I suppose they have some Reverse Imposters there, too, but I wouldn't know /s )

My dad was against my going there; I wouldn't be able to talk to ordinary people if I was only ever around those "gifted" kids.

I suppose there's something to that; I cited this article:

https://theamericanscholar.org/the-disadvantages-of-an-elite...

by a guy who didn't know what to say to the plumber standing in his kitchen, whereas I'd much rather be around people like that than the Reverse Imposters.
I haven't written Elixir professionally the last couple of years, but I was an early user of LiveView when it was first demoed at a conference.

As someone who currently writes applications using React Server Components, I am interested to see how concepts like LiveView evolve over time. We are now shipping significantly more HTML than before, and a lot less Javascript, as more has been moved to the server.

Makes me wish LiveView was portable to every other platform I work on, rather than having to convince companies to write more Elixir (although that isn't a bad thing).
> which I’m sure not only gets people to take them down but also discourages people from writing them in the first place.

I leave negative reviews for places that deserve them, and there's nothing they could ever do to get me to take it down, or discourage me from doing it. I doubt they could ever do anything that would make most people feel differently from me about that. In fact, I'd be pissed and just start leaving more negative reviews if they even thought of getting aggressive.
TIL Bud Light used to be America's top selling beer.

But I guess this is sort of like the long tail of beer (microbrews) being more popular than the old mass produced stuff?
The textbook I read to study for my provincial Engineering Law and Ethics exam had a section on non-competes. It straight up said the vast majority of non-competes are not enforceable but warned that the more specific the circumstances described by the non-compete the greater the chance that a court would enforce it.

The example they used for something that would most likely be enforced was a geologist working for company A doing a mining survey in a area under a 6 month non-compete cause would definitely not legally be allowed to take a job for company B to do a survey in the same area until the non-compete expired.
How'd you get the 15k for OpenAI?? Would love to apply for the same credits
"Trivial" is misleading. From OpenAI's docs and demos, the full ReAct workflow is an order of magnitude more difficult than typical ChatGPT API usage with a new set of constaints (e.g. schema definitions)

Even OpenAI's notebook demo has error handling workflows which was actually necessary since ChatGPT returned incorrect formatted output.

Zig is still rather new, but it would be a good alternative to C, C++, Rust and Go.
Yeah I'm also having trouble finding anything concrete, not sure where I initially heard about it. Could've just been some rumor.
They could go remote except that Elon now apparently believes this is "immoral."
One old adage I live by when it comes to people I work for... "Fuck you, pay me."

There's an implied contract at play, companies exist to make money and I work for them to get paid (what I'm worth). If either of these proves false, either party is free to terminate the implied contract at any time. It sounds like they're reneging on their end to pay you what you're worth, so I'd start looking for new work buddy!
Music Companies Sue Twitter for Alleged Copyright Violations
You don't have to. You can self report and if you incorrectly report it is a crime. As simple as that. This is also exactly how the definition of very large online platforms (which is a site from 45+million montly active Users) in the EUs new Digital Services Act works [1].
Some companies (primarily porn) are believed to have misreported, and are being investigated for that[2]. If they are found guilty they will have to adhere to the regulation for vlops, and pay a fine of up to 6% of their annual EU revenue... (Obviously not the full sum for a first time offence)

Ask HN: How to take back control of my music?
Like many of you, I used to maintain a big book of CDs, which then got replaced by a massive MP3 collection, and finally succumbed to the convenience of Spotify.

Are there any decent third party Spotify clients or other solutions that would allow me to start migrating my collection back into something I own and curate without giving up the ability to discover music in the same app?

How are you handling this?
> I’ve seen entire comment chains on a repost that were re-created verbatim from an older post.

I have seen this happen on one of those (former) small niche cozy subs, where it is small enough that people notice their content being recycled. No idea what the goal might be, so I wonder if it is a platform feature to pump-up engagement by automatically reposting content.
Yet another brand gone to shit in the name of "exponential growth" or some other term investors want to hear. No one considers whether their business should fit a model that prioritizes sustainability.
Btw, the study looked at both human and mice brains.
Combining Swagger (OpenAPI) with Markdown prose was what prompted us to build Doctave [0]. Jekyll does a good job, but breaks down once you need more bells and whistles, such as search and versioning.

You forgot:

- million dollars mansions tours

- asking strangers in the street how much is their rent or what's their salary

- asking strangers in the street to do X for money (e.g. do 10 pull ups for $100)

- tourism videos in "dangerous" places such as South America, Africa, Middle Orient, East Europe, Asia (i.e. everywhere not in NA and West Europe)

- silent walking/driving 4K videos in Japan/China/South Korea

- "one day in the life of a programmer/student/[whatever] at [prestigious company/college name]" videos, showing a person waking up, taking a shower, eating breakfast, etc.
I'm sure they were not because they know too much.

Apple loves keeping the "magic" on their products as long as they can. Once they are in consumers hands they can't stop teardowns and detailed comparisons but right now they won't want some wise guy ascertaining the FoV, PPD, distortion figures etc.

They want their marketing to be viewed as a class of their own, without direct specs to compare to their competitors. Once you bring it down to technical fact territory, that "magic" they're going for is lost.

Right now they're only showing it to their most loyal followers that are bound to go "wow" but don't pick up too many technical details.

What's unsaid here, is that such construct could be optimized way more for speed than data classes because:

- it's immutable

- doesn't have methods so no overloaded operator or dynamic attribute/index accesss

- shape is known and is set in stone

That's why Mojo has them, and why they are the bread and butter in Rust.

It's one of the step in the direction of a faster Python.
A bit crude feedback here, but I very strongly advise against it. You are trying to solve the wrong problem. The problem is not that people should become better traders - the problem is that people should NOT trade at all. They should invest.

Trading as you describe it is not profitable - and it's almost by definition impossible for it to be profitable through some well known signals that one could share on a platform. So if your goal is to sell snake oil, then go for it.
But if you want to really help people, then make a platform to teach them how to invest.

When you have enough money, they do. There are two completely separate justice systems in this world.
Yeah the attempting-to-model first approach is great too for trying to avoid walking into "we thought this would take three weeks but it's gonna take 6 month" situations because the initial requirements were not all the way thought through around edge cases and such, and looping stakeholders in to just how nasty it may or may not be early-on.
I have to admit, even though the article read like background set-up in the start of a SF dystopia, reading it did make me morbidly curious as to where this could go.

I'll try reverting f31dcb152a3 and testing again later. Happy to test anything else if needed.
I mean this was basically clubhouse which people loved until it grew large enough that they had to build out moderation tooling besides "kick this motherfucker out of the bar" (like automatically enforcing "if anyone talking in this bar personally blocked you, you're not allowed to enter the bar. Fine for a local dive, disastrous for larger rooms, imagine being banned from a conference because one person blocked you - they didn't even have to want to ban you from the conference, you're just auto-kicked from any room they enter !)
Yes, I do agree with you that it is nowhere near as trivial as it is to just pop open ChatGPT and ask it something right now, and at the moment, that matters.

I'm looking more long term, like, a year out, five years out, and on that time frame I think it's very reasonable to expect to see ChatGPT-levels of quality being completely commoditized. OpenAI or whatever commercial entity may by then have the next level AI, but there's definitely a threshold where the combination of LLM + human ingenuity gets to the point where there are effectively no signals of humanity left.

Moreover, I'm running on the theory that detecting LLMs is in fact not an arms race, but clearly ends in a win for LLMs. Basically, there exists text that simply looks human. It doesn't matter what level of superhuman AI you throw at it, it simply is in the space of "texts that a human was likely to generate". Once that level is attained, it won't matter that there is something that can generate superhuman text quality or something.

(Or, put another way, if your clever "ride the AI wave" startup plan is "create a startup that can detect LLM usage", I advise you strongly to wargame out your 1 year and 5 year futures for that tech, especially in the face of deliberate attack. I would not be optimistic.)
Your description loudly shouts Streamlit to me.

I'm of the opinion that if it weren't for Bud / Miller / Coors controlling the relationship with so many sports / concert arenas then they would have disappeared off the map long ago anyway. Especially among the under-50 crowd, how many would choose one of these generic pilsners? Even if you like pilsner, these aren't great choices.
I worked for a Silicon Valley company who made a big deal about their family leave policy.

I was an employee and live and work in Minnesota. The policy did not apply to me : (
So then someone should make a basic product/feature that let's you "save" (encapsulate, and then push) a conversation to a public page.

Let's say I run a Discord community around some product/service, like a rendering engine like Octane. Two users have a meaningful conversation explaining how to increase light samples. Let's say that information is not documented online. There should be a nice way to summarize + post that onto a website that can be crawled.

You could even automate this with GPT. It could constantly scan Discord for back-and-forth context-specific conversations and push summaries from them to a website. Then users could upvote or downvote them into oblivion asynchronously.
DDG, although I think I'll be switching to Kagi in the future.

> for people who want to scan text and not watch a half hour youtube.

I never use YouTube videos for that sort of thing because I don't really learn well from videos. I'm a text kind of guy. But even for those sorts of things, I never have a problem finding good resources on the web, so I have no reason to have to go to reddit for them.

That's just me, though. It's not a criticism of reddit, just a preference. Reddit is just not my kind of place, so I like to avoid it when I can.
Advising against blind trust in non-experts' statements doesn't imply a recommendation to blindly trust experts' statements.
it's not uncommon. the company nextdoor to a place i used to work had a bit of chaos one morning when everyone showed up to work only to find the constable had chain locked the front door. none of the employees had a clue that the company was not paying rent. lots of pleading to be allowed in long enough to gather personal effects. i was only 20 at the time, and it was a big influence on me to not bring a lot of personal items to my work place.
"Let's all return to the office, but let's also avoid paying for office space". That seems to have been Musk's strategy. Seems it has some obvious flaws.
For people confused by the above notation:

How you use the platform, and the specific tools used to interact with it, are varied, so experiences for otherwise similar users can be radically different.

I like it very much, with restrictions: on the desktop I only use the old experience, and on mobile I only use(d) a third party app that jailed the noise and rabble so I could enjoy my subscribed subreddits almost exclusively. I care very much about interaction with communities and very little about using Reddit or any platform to be an end-all be-all comprehensive news source and efficient time killer.

It's that wide variability that explains (1) how opinion differs so much and (2) why people are up-in-arms about killing 3rd party apps.
Another way of saying what I’m trying to say is that at any given time, no matter how much they keep heaping on new heuristics, there will be some missed cases that should be obvious to a human observer.
Seeing corpses reduces the lifespan of flies
It's a bit perverse to watch how the US is eating itself from the inside. Is there anything that isn't a culture war? Are there any more third rails left in a time when white replacement theory is on primetime TV?

Show HN: rexipie – now we're cooking with ai
Like many of y'all, I've long been annoyed by recipe websites. This project attempts to fix a few main pain points:

- Cut out the fluff: whether you start form an existing recipe via URL, or let the GPT start fresh with some flavor text, there's no scrolling through pages of background story, instead the content is always front and center

- Inline where possible: I've never understood why ingredients and instructions are always listed separately. It results in constant scrolling back and forth between sections. Here, the amount of the ingredient is put right into the rest of the instructions.

- Built in timers: If a recipe is telling me to set a timer for 30 minutes, why should I need to go to another app to set it? This uses includes timers directly in the recipe and uses web push where possible to send you a notification when your steps are complete.
This is why Craigslist does great. They take a small fixed fee on volume and don't favor listings.

A good restaurant directory - some exist for restaurant niches, but none in general - could clean up with non-obtrusive ads if the focused on completeness and accuracy with a fairly minor feature set. It would just require having enough capital and time to establish social trust.

Curating reviews is just broken, just like SEO has turned out to be. It is unavoidably gameable. Yelp seems like a zombie site. They are free-riding on their prior reputation and gradually spending it away to acquire revenue. When the reputation is gone, the revenue will be, also.

Reconstructing Indoor Spaces with NeRF
This reads like a "I know it took us a while since our last announcement of AI advancements, but here are some general topics we are trying out". As in, this is a planned leak.

Why do I think this? Because we see on HN the following:

> "Some of the ideas that were pitched, such as a security-automation tool and an engineering app that can speedily answer questions related to Amazon Web Services’ cloud products, are reportedly already in testing phases."

(1) Amazon Code Guru (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36330579), posted about one hour ago.

> "Another leaked suggestion included in the document proposed implementing a ChatGPT-like search bar for Amazon shoppers where they can “can explain pros and cons between brands and cite and summarize user reviews,” according to Insider."

(2) Amazon using generative AI to summarize product reviews (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36317929), posted yesterday.

> "Other suggested time-savers included using ChatGPT to auto-generate software code and marketing materials, according to the report."

(3) Amazon CodeWhisperer (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35706467), posted about 2 months ago.

In my experience, PRFAQs are highjacked by managers to maintain and grow their own careers, at the expense of the actual author(s). This helps explain why execution routinely suffers at Amazon, because the people taking credit for the ideas are not the actual source.
The problem is that a lot of those databases will not exist to begin with. Also, data owners are much more protective of their data. 8 years ago I could just ask companies for anonymised data for academic purposes and they would give it or allow scraping. Now the answer is GDPR bla bla bla. On the other hand, I am not saying privacy efforts are bad.
You are going to be so tired, you won't even be able to sleep.
New York is also the financial hub of the country. Removing non-competes creates a culture where employees can readily jump ship from their companies and form their startups w/o recourse. Not sure if that Silicon Valley culture makes sense in the financial sector.

> There's a well-trodden path in NYC from HFT/Prop #1 -> Big Tech, for duration of a non-compete -> HFT/Prop #2, that can be shortened by one node.

I've seen some folks do HFT/Prop #1 -> HFT/Prop #2 in London/Singapore.
> How should I interpret this situation?

Have you considered sharing your specific concerns with your manager? If not, why? Seems like they should be the most knowledgeable with regards to the rationale behind the decision.
