Traditionalist catholics celebrate the mass as it always was. The new religion you are alluding to that would consecrate a triscuit is what is out of lines. You can't accuse a group that stays the same as creating a new religion while you consecrate snacks from the grocery store.

Nevertheless, there is no objection to using eastern rite leavening or wine made from grapes from elsewhere. The eastern rites are just doing what they've always done and the wine just has to be grape wine and fermented. This is not a novel rule. It's how it's always been done. You can read any older document on the matter to realize the so called traditionalists are not creating a new religion.
Sometimes it's the other way around, you have to have some battery power in excess of what the external supply can provide or the thing won't boot.
Virtual desktops in MacOS are still only partially implemented though.

Vastly better than Windows (unless 11 has decided to fix them), but grouping windows together in a new desktop involves swiping up, clicking the plus to create a new desktop, dragging both windows to the new desktop. Control left/right to move between the desktops, oh that terminal would be useful as well, and find that there is no native shortcut to move windows between desktops.

Great question. Considering all possible lines of work, maybe 99.5 %? But that's a little like saying I share 98 % of my DNA with chimpanzees -- maybe those last 2 % are the parts of interest.

Considering just the general area of IT, maybe 80 %? I get to do product development which is my interest, but there are also many things which I would like to be different, like purpose of product, organisational size, leadership philosophies, etc.

Now -- why do you ask?
Is there some reason why RNNs can’t be used as a trace at the end of the context window, as a ’medium-term’ memory of sorts?
The goal here is to save my files, change things, and get back to my old version if that ended up being a bad idea. That's a simple request. 20 to 30 hours of learning for a big undo is bullshit.
It’s just an over generalized UI since those POS terminals are used for all sorts of stuff. I’ll tip when it’s appropriate and don’t when it’s not. One of the times I don’t find appropriate is food trucks staffed solely by the owner. Even though food service tipping is generally appropriate, I draw the line at tipping an owner. Seems like a bit of double dipping to me.
Yes, I understand the content of the database is supposed to be on disk. But for the database to function and do its thing, it needs space in RAM. Like page swap and cache.
How do you measure cache line utilization with a flame graph? I'm not sure it's as simple as you're describing. Poor memory access patterns from heap allocations can kill performance via death from a thousand cuts. It's not about spending "X% of the time on allocation," it's about every computation spending unnecessary time reading and writing to the cache due to poor choice of allocation strategy. Custom allocators can ensure data layout fits the access pattern.

More specifically, arrays are about the fastest thing around, and handing out objects from within a preallocated array tends to give the best access performance by a large margin. From what I understand you basically have to sidestep the Rust borrow checker to achieve this. Which does raise some interesting questions.

I think the original poster was also saying that heap allocations are slow, which is true, but I agree it'd be easier to tell if your program is having trouble with that.
Nice try, ClosedAI. Then how do you explain this?

Totally fair, it deviate from grabber’s book.

I’m shoving my agenda that those jobs are useless overall. But maybe people doing them would beg to differ.

That just my perspective having lived elsewhere most of my life : those jobs don’t exists, and society goes on. But that’s a shitty metric.

Demo of Dark Mode Stylesheet for HN
I spent a pleasant couple of hours augmenting the Hacker News stylesheet to enable Dark Mode. There's a demo [here](https://github.com/rerdavies/hn_dark_mode/).

Obviously the changes don't do anything other than make a nice demo, unless somebody from Hacker News copies the modified stylesheet into HN production sources. So please upvote, in the hope that somebody from HN will notice.

No HTML has been modified in the production of this stylesheet (other than removing personal identification and auth tokens from the demo page).
I think it's reasonable to be skeptical. There's a similar lack of evidence that it works out better for people who quit their toxic jobs when those jobs are also how people pay for the necessities of life.

I'm expecting to quit my job within the next month to try to build my own company. I live pretty frugally (though in an expensive city/country) and have at most a year of savings, if I completely wipe out my government retirement savings accounts.

If it doesn't work out, I could very well end up homeless or dead. But if I stay at my job I could also end up dead (whether by heart attack, suicide, or the rest of my life flying by in an unfulfilling haze of work).

This article resonates with me, but I'm also not going to pretend I know definitively that leaving the job is the better option for me.

(In my case, I wouldn't even say my job is toxic, just taxing)
I'm guessing this is a ploy to get John Oliver to talk about the protests.
Then again, can we trust that person? It's not like they didn't have conflict of interest to make that claim.
>Or is Reddit's value purely that it has the most users?

Most users and now that SEO spam has corrupted search results, Reddit often has the most useful answers. This is why reddit also has a karma farming and astroturfing problem since the spammers are trying to inject themselves into search results from the platform as well.

I wouldn't be terribly surprised if there's not a reddit fork or mass exodus when a compelling replacement comes along. So far it's early days and much like mastodon vs Twitter, there's not a yet a critical mass on the replacement.
I did not say the GDPR conflicts with battery replacement, no.
They can, though I guess it depends on what the user is actually trying to do when they remove a program. I'd say the user wants to free up disk space and to not have the app start up on boot or run in the background consuming resources. Deleting the .app does this while on Windows, the uninstaller is the only way I know how this would be done.

The fact that the app might leave some documents and configs behind seems inconsequential. If you delete Word, you wouldn't want it to wipe out your documents with it for example. The fact that some configs remain in system dirs doesn't really matter when they take up no space.
A small cheap VPS won’t have the compute or RAM to run these. The best way (and the intent) is to run it locally. A fast box with at least 32GiB of RAM (or VRAM for a GPU) can run many of the models that work with llama.cpp. For this 40G model you will need more like 48GiB of RAM.

Apple Silicon is pretty good for local models due to the unified CPU/GPU memory but a gaming PC is probably the most cost effective option.

If you want to just play around and don’t have a box big enough then temporarily renting one at Hetzner or OVH is pretty cost effective.

If this gives us better fluid dynamic models and better designs, it could be huge. Better ship propellers and hulls, cars, trucks, airplanes, jet engines. Wind turbines and gas turbines. Also combustion and all kinds of chemical reactions that need mixing.
> Just don't use any shared state, bro

Thank you, Sherlock.

But for the rest of us: when you need shared state, lockfree atomic spinlocks are roughly 1000 times more performant than mutexes. (Not a scientific estimate, numbers taken from real-word experience.)

It's not that God cannot it's that the human church cannot say for certain whether God does.

For example, God can come back tomorrow riding in from heaven on a Ford mustang but the church isn't going to declare this as true and make everyone wait for it tomorrow.

If God tells you to do X so Y happens, then you should do X. You should not do Z and then expect Y to happen with certainty. It might. It might not. You cannot know.
Why does Debian care that it can't be used in a commercial setting?
> For which applications is that worth it?

Programming, primarily. Code takes many more tokens per kilobyte of text than written English. So even quite short blocks of code eat up a lot of tokens.

The current AIs can do trivial, generic things using popular libraries. None can really help make changes in a large proprietary codebase where the prerequisite knowledge is the structure, design, and APIs of the private code.

With 100K token windows, a model could be given entire database schemas, or reams of interface definitions, Rest API schemas, or whatever, and then make edits based on that context.

It wouldn't even matter if it was slower than human, as long as it was cheaper.

Look at it this way: An 8-GPU NVIDIA DGX server is what, $400K to purchase at retail pricing? That would be "good enough" to run really beefy LLMs. If you use that server for about 3 years, then even factoring in all ancillary costs, that's about $13/hour to run. Or about 30 cents per minute.

So even if it takes some huge 100K token super-smart model a full minute to run through a prompt like "given the following reams of context, find the bugs in the given code below", then that's almost certainly worth it to most dev shops. Bugs can cost thousands of dollars to find and fix.

Merely finding half of the bugs for mere cents per function could yield staggering savings.
I have been trying out Tildes and I absolutely love their UI/UX! It’s minimal, very easy to read, yet offers great functionality. I think it can also be used with JS disabled.

You don't need heap allocations in order to have an explicit owner. Data on the stack is owned, and references to stack-allocated data can be handed out just fine.
Well it is a mass. In the Latin rite, the only requirement for a thing to be a valid mass is for a priest to take bread and wine and say 'this is my body' and 'this is my blood'. That's it. If a priest does this with the intention to say a mass he does an illegal but otherwise valid Mass. There is no doubt to this.

RSS doesn't need to solve this problem. If you decide you care enough about a given community you can make an account on that instance and go do it the regular way.

The problem RSS solves is it prevents your whole world being captured by a particular community, instance, server, platform, company, whatever. Half the Internet is having an existential crisis over the Reddit implosion. RSS users aren't - we're kind of shrugging our shoulders and saying, well that's one of 10 places we get community, info, whatever, sure it's a big one but if it vanished overnight (which it sort of did) 85% of my feed would still be there.

Reddit, Lemmies, blogs, podcasts, Mastodon instances, weird alt Tube sites, the Chans, the Tildes, SDF, probably more - contrary to recent HN posts about how all the web feels "samey" now, it's a big 'net out there these days. It's merely a question of the company you keep. If you only ate at chain restaurants, you'd feel that food has gotten pretty lame too.
Median wage does not mean living wage. The living wage in other countries is quite a lot lower. Their money goes far further.

A typical server would be 8xA100 with a dual CPU (128 cores total), 2TB of RAM. I doubt you have something like this sitting around.
I worked on a thing many years ago that involved machine learning, which usually produced reasonable results but all users hated it nonetheless, because machine learning made it completely opaque. The correct predictions it made were mostly acceptable, but the incorrect predictions it made were hilariously bad, and in both cases nobody could explain why it generated those outputs.

Eventually we concluded that machine learning wasn't a good fit for our problem, and our users were very keen to maintain that conclusion.
What would be nicer is an interactive CLI interface for git. For example: "git switch <branch>", then if the branch doesn't exist, git asks you:

"Branch <branch> does not exist; create it? [y/n]"

To be fair, I've long used "checkout -b" and I don't think new branches need this, but it might be helpful in special situations like rebase/merge conflicts. I appreciate this sort of interactive CLI in other tools (apt, vite, etc.), versus having to look up the manual for the right options/switches. It's a different approach that might be more annoying to some power users, but is more friendly to most other users.

(This is also where GUIs are helpful, since they display most of the useful commands and options for you. Plus they can do things like see line history by commit and list your stashes for super-easy switching; GitLens/GitLess in VSCode do these.)
It also suspicously starts to look like planned economics, once the mono-duo-poly stage is reached.

Rare goods, long queues, no choice, bad products and the leadership is off, chasing its own tail in some basebal metric detached from the world. It even features market-libertarians having to defend practices like shredding perfectly fine goods in ware houses.

The moment the ussr was gone, the race horse finally could binge and become something very similar to the ussr economy, but instead of obsessing on tanks & steel, it focused on excel sheet virtual wealth wankery, disguising the slide back into the gilded age feudalism.
Not "forcing", no, in fact maybe the very opposite in those with the right bacteria.

> Experiments in mice and rats suggest that certain microbes living in your body as part of the gut microbiome have ways of letting the brain know when they've received enough nutrients to reach their goal—creating a billion more of their kind. Those signals seem to turn hunger on and off in their hosts.

> Many studies suggest that our gut produces hormones that tell our brain to either grab some more grub or stop eating. Fetissov thinks that E. coli may be hijacking this molecular pathway to produce the signals that make animals feel full, and that doing so may be a way for the bacteria to self-regulate their populations.
Absolutely.

You don't need a priest for a wedding. In the Latin rite, a couple marries themselves. In the medieval times, the church allowed couples to marry in secret without a priest (and without any witnesses). The only sacramental requirement for a marriage is a man and woman make a solemn commitment to live together as husband and wife with full understanding and full freedom to enter into the agreement.

However as you can imagine this became an administrative nightmare as couples sought to divorce after such a secret marriage and no one could say whether the marriage was valid.

So the church required marriage vows to be made public and in front of witnesses in order to be legal.

However, the couple is the minister not the priest. During a Catholic marriage, the couple is seated on the sanctuary along with the priest . One of the few times laypeople can do that.
How so? Seems counterintuitive

I'm no Alphabet fan, but their sprinkling through this article seems out of place. There are so many good examples (like Uber), that picking on Google and Microsoft, or even Facebook seems unnecessary.

The bottom line us that these 3 businesses make money. Billions per quarter. It's coming in so fast they quite literally dont know what to do with it all.

The market is fine with billions lost on the metaverse because its a drop in the bucket. An EU fine doesn't move the needle.

Yes, Google and Facebook are ad companies, and yes they'd like to be more diverse than that, but the fact remains that ads on Google and Facebook work. People keep spending money there because it works. There's real value in efficient advertising and Google and Facebook have provided that real value.

MS already has a diverse business, from OS to Office, from Azure to Xbox, from Teams to Flight Simulator. Bing can afford to be a long-play and seems to be gaining traction.

I also cannot help but think that if this article was written in 2006 Amazon would have been the (legitimate) poster child for the point he's making. Billions spent, never profitable. But look at them now.

Of course there are failures. Of course most of the money is wasted [1]. This is not a secret , its not even a bug, its baked into the VC model. It's been obvious since forever.

The VC model is but one kind of business model, designed for a specific kind of business. And as a model it is applied to a vanishingly small number of actual businesses overall.

[1] money is not "wasted" in the sense that water can be wasted by leaving a tap on. It is spent. Salaries, infrastructure, rent, cars, food, whatever - its all "trickling down" to people or actual profitable companies. Selling shovels, and jeans, is more profitable than digging for gold, and less risky, but that one gold digger who strikes it rich keeps hope up for all the others.

which one conflicts with this proposed replaceable battery legislation?
I think are some differences here:

1. In a coffee shop almost no-one comes to me uninvited to ask a question about my work or our product that will create a 30 minute interruption

2. The background noise in a coffee shop has not relation to the product/company I work for this it becomes much more similar with the wind or rain - our brains can really adapt and ignore it

While in open office the flow can be interrupted by a friendly face passing by and waving, by someone speaking out loud about a project related to what you are working on or by someone drawing a diagram of something you know. In a sense all these are picking your attention as they are related to your interest.

But more important is that in a coffee place 99% of time you pick your interruption: ordering something or chatting with someone while in an open office the distraction comes at random times.

I'm thinking of a very complex logistics system I wrote, that had to trace millions of possible paths to optimize a route. Even when the range of choices is too extensive to present to the user directly, and you need to resort to a list of best choices, it's indispensable to show somehow how the logic was arrived at and present ways of disabling portions of what went into the deductive process. That's something machine learning simply isn't geared towards, because the reasoning doesn't rest on reproducible sets of hierarchical rules.
