Well so one issue w both GPUs n CPUs which make them bad platforms for this algorithm is that, in both, FLOPS are such an important metric for sales that multiplication is highly subsidized in both those chip types. So huge amounts of area is dedicated to floating point multiplication, meaning the advantage of fgemm (the name of the algorithm is the same as the name of the company) is purely one of energy.

Which is great because if it were software it would be impossible to protect the IP. USPTO is very clear in that sense, i believe in both in re Bilski and in the Alice Corp. case which reached SCOTUS, that algorithms need to be implemented physically, typically meaning in a chip, to be patentable. So because it needs a chip to work, it is good business, if it did not it would be bad business. A chip provides every form of IP protection, all four forms, trade secret, copyright, patent, n even trademark. No other medium has that to my knowledge.

So if you have a CPU or a GPU n want it to do more work in the same amount of time, this paper promises nothing, n it keeps that promise. Nonetheless i'm advancing rapidly to the point of creating the hardware that can cut off 70% of the cost of GEMM. I considered 50% off, same thing at half the price, but it wouldn't be fair to the consumer w my economics. You see 50% discounts all the time, who cares? 70% off, you don't see that all the time. On something you actually want? Especially on a commodity, n it's still good business for me as the lowest-cost producer.
File an LLC for yourself. Give it a normal name. Add it to your resume if you ever need one again (and maybe you won't!). Gives whatever time you spent doing or not doing something more authenticity.

So you would not defend yourself in such mortal encounters because it hasn't been codified in law that you could or should?

Are you suggesting lethal force ("find out") should be the very first intervention at the suspicion of a threat ("fuck around")?

And if using lethal force were so liberalized, the city would assuredly be safer and there's no risk it would be more dangerous?

Would it be safer for everyone? Is it OK if it isn't?

It's not difficult to understand, but it isn't obvious that your ideas are good ones.
Your example is literally reviewed in the article:

"If you were to say to me, 'Let's go out for dinner tonight, and I'll meet you at this restaurant at this time,' and I send you a thumbs[-up] emoji, what does that mean?" Lee said.

"It means I'm going to meet you at the restaurant at that time."

Hell, you even sound like you agree with this take:

> People thumbs up a message to go to dinner with friends, knowing full well they can cancel

You can't cancel on plans you haven't agreed to. If you reply with a thumbs-up to go to dinner (per your example!), then the assumption is that you're going to dinner (and thus have the option to cancel).

Difference is, in this case, the agreement was to a contract, not dinner. The latter is typically much easier to back out of.

Yeah, it can split weights. Whatever fraction of the weights that don't fit into vram will be computed on the CPU (with reasonable speed).

Additionally, prompt processing will work with large models even with low vram GPUs.
I'd say you need to start again. Make sure your content is solid first, then your layout, then your color scheme.

Only play around with JS and animating once you're sure it's absolutely needed. Most animated reveals are wishful attempts to look high tech that just irritate the visitor. If you're in doubt, just follow how a major company like stripe.com does it.
kinda. not really. but I think this is an important point about the gpl. it hinges on this notion of 'linkage' which is a specific technical implementation which is partially on its way out.

but I don't see why it would be a concern here? you're saying to develop a non-gel application on top a gpl-d genera? I guess so.
What does the SV crowd have to do with it? A lot of people seem to assume tech is to blame but I don't see why.

What are you talking about? Literally everything you are complaining about is false.

> being invisible

They are not invisible. There are riots with extreme violence when one of their criminals is shot by police, even though the cop is facing a murder trial. In contrast, Muslims in France committed multiple attacks against ethnic French people and there were zero riots. If the Muslims in France are invisible, how come a death of one of their criminals causes such indignation to result in a violent riot? But multiple terrorist attacks / targeted assassinations / stabbing / shootings / murders perpetrated by Muslim in France against the ethnic French population don't cause enough indignation to result in a riot?

Tell me, what rights do ethnic French people have that Muslim French citizens don't?

> allowed to work and get a tiny fraction of the value your work represents

You must not be familiar with the French welfare state. I guarantee that the Muslim immigrants and their children receive MUCH more from the government than the work they produce.

> until someone just murders you

And is prosecuted for it!

> I would burn things down, too

Consider you don't know what is happening in France before you proclaim support for riots and violence.
If you want to avoid Java just for those naming styles, while the ecosystem is actually great (doc, tooling and lib maturity) you’re doing it wrong.

Java works. Its effectiveness is high, and it’s quite uncommon to hit rough edges since it’s so well tested. A smooth ride forbackend when compared to languages like Python or Javascript.
I’ve honestly had great luck through LinkedIn and directly on company websites.
Definitely. And at a slightly higher level, open mindedness is paramount to this. Engaging with other perspectives in good faith not only expands ur worldview but also pushes you to reconsider why you believe/do a thing a certain way.

And like you mention, when a problem arises and you query ur mental rolodex, there’s many more solutions/ideas to iterate over and consider
That’s exactly what stuck in my head. I’m 99.9% sure the answer is no. That little tickle in my brain is the interesting part to think about.
> What's kinda sad is how bad most were at building shelters.

Seems expected when you consider that most people have never built a shelter, and those that have aren't often doing it on a regular basis using whatever happens to be lying around. Same for fishers and hunters who are highly skilled in the environments they regularly work in. You can only expect them to struggle when placed in new environments with new added restrictions. You'd just hope they'd struggle a bit less than an novice would in that situation.
I think it's unimpressive engineering wise (minus all that Meta does for scale, which we already knew about). I think the business execution and marketing is what's impressive.

Piling on to #2, get rid of the fancy animations and fade ins. For a developer audience especially this is meaningless posturing that's impressing no one.
Since this is essentially a victimless crime, and also as innocuous as you say, I believe that this is the tip of the iceberg of pranks/aggression against SDCs. I've seen that stickers have also been plastered over sensors. I believe that attackers will often take advantage of the unattended nature of SDCs in order to confuse and disable them, and the manufacturers will have little recourse but to basically wage an arms race, cat-and-mouse, to continually mitigate each situation as it manifests.
For me on mobile it was scrolled halfway down the page when it loaded. Agree with the other commenters that the slow-loading content is really annoying and caused me to lose interest very quickly.
What kind of algo is it that summarizes your coding session as "carnival tent emoji"?

Or does roulette imply (pseudo?) random?
Hey!

I like that it's relatively clean. No huge images or animations. It has a bit of Google feel to it with focus on central text field and limited distraction.

Being that simple, it should be blazingly fast. It appears it uses code to... make things slower? That's going to divide audience, to those who like cute effects and those who just want to get to it. Who's more likely to be your buyers?

It was not at ALL obvious to me that I should scroll down. Again, it evokes google, there's a search box, and four sections / buttons / numbers at bottom that seemed to indicate end of content/page.

Your pricing/faq structure is confusing to me. Pricing goes to FAQ, FAQ goes to pricing#FAQ. There's no pricing either way :D

I don't know if there's enough description right up front, or an easy enough link, to understand what it does / what's your sales pitch / why this is worth the time. But I like that you can try it right away with minimal hassle. Goes back to my first point though - if your audience are no-nonsense techies, reconsider the value of intentionally slowing / fading things in :)

FAQ letters are either somewhat low contrast/hard to read if cursor is not on them, or very hard / extremely low contrast to read if cursor is on them (which it typically would be if you click on it). Likely to be another pet peeve of the HN audience :)

I feel it is not expected behaviour for "Products" button to not do anything, only open your choice of specific product lines. My expectation would be that I can hit "Products" root button to see overview and comparison of your products. I don't want to chase them one by one - I don't have the information to make informed choice yet. Edit: Clicking those two links just scrolls me on the front page which is somewhat unexpected behaviour (it's structured to make me feel it's a separate page), but more importantly it's strangely slow. It pauses then scrolls then fades in. It feels like the automatic gearbox in older cars - nothing, nothing, oh wait did you press gas? Hmm should I do something about it? Oh! Yes! I'm a transmission! I should downshift! Yes! Here you go! ==* :->

With that in mind, the more I use the site, the more little delays accumulate. I feel like in 1998, netscape could instantly go to anchor inside the page. I feel like in 2023 on my Fibre gigabit, I'd expect clicking a button that does the same thing should be... like, faster than instantaneous :->

That being said, I cannot evaluate how good your product is - I did not interpret that to be the gist of your question, just the website itself.

Yes, the point is that you wait until the subject is sufficiently competent to be able to make those medical decisions for themselves, which in most jurisdictions is 14 to 16. The entire point of puberty blockers is to delay permanent sexual changes until the subject can make their own decisions.

> The personal trainer type to me sounds a bit like a regimented-thinking military type. Every marine, or soldier of any kind is taught and tries to live the “look straight ahead” way.

nah, it's because looking straight ahead (or, when doing squats, slightly vertically above straight ahead) keeps the neck and upper back arched and supportive. looking down rounds it over.
Just remove the name and make it a Function<String, Function<Context, Function<String, Context>>> and then use lambdas throughout and your PL fans will love you for not making it something.
I kindly disagree. Python tooling, documentation and lib maturity is nowadays comparable to Java IMHO. Which one is better suited for your problem is a matter of perception.

Javascript (on the backend) is obviously a different story.
Appears to be something that will make my APIs better, presumably by load testing them.

>If B wants to forward it to C, they can strip off their own (B's) encryption, leaving A's (optional) private key signature, and send that to C.

That could work. The PGP format is pretty modular. You could just strip out the content packet and signature packet. People don't do it because it would be confusing. Things like encrypted email list servers would be more likely to retain signatures.

Believe it or not, the possibility is actually something people have complained about in the past:

It is similar to a presentation deck, with plenty of empty whitespace, tiny low-contrast text, some Pioneer plaque-like graphics, and in the end the punchline is "Request a demo".

Just set a price, don't ask people to request a demo because they won't.

Some what I would suggest is:

- More contrast between the text and the background

- Less text

- Put the most meaningful text earlier

- Create "plans": basic, pro, enterprise. Keep the "Contact sales" button only for enterprise.
Early adopter, yeah, but hardly the same kind of “1.0” an early Tesla was. I’ve had my R1T for over a year and it is without a shadow of doubt my favorite car I’ve ever owned, and that’s coming from a die hard V8-loving car dork. It’s just SO good at everything. They really hit it out of the park.
I wasn't shocked, indeed because still stumbled on known issues (like giving
false answer on otherwise right context).
Intentionally saying something rude when there are better way to convey the same meaning is a kind of personal attack.
Clearly the Threads main ingredient is a whole lot if cringe.

It's pretty funny to watch Musk criticize and mock US politicians and governments while he simultaneously bows and scraps before China.

But Musk is an authoritarian at heart. His natural affinity is for authoritarian regimes so this outcome is not that surprising.

This is why React won: No template language to learn. No prescriptions for managing your app. No piles of abstractions to do basic things. It's just a UI lib. Import it, declare what to paint on-screen, done.

Oh, you want routing? "Not my business", says React. Go add a routing library. You want a framework for managing global state? Go find one. Want a kitchen sink frontend solution which bundles all of these commonplace features together? Use Create React App, or Next.js, or whatever fits your use case.

That's why I love React. The complexity of the solution matches the complexity of the problem.

Hello world:

const App = () => <div>Hello world!</div>
root.render(<App />);

Basic reactivity (output click event to console):

const App = () => <button onClick={console.log}></button>

Composition & enumeration (dynamic bullet list!):

const OneTwoThree = () => [1, 2, 3].map(i => <li>{i}</li>)

const App = () => (
<ul>
<OneTwoThree />
</ul>
)

Set UI output data and CSS style based on asynchronous query results:

const App = () => {
const [isGoogleUp, setIsGoogleUp] = useState(true);

const checkGoogleStatus = () =>
fetch('http://google.com')
.then((response) => setIsGoogleUp(response.ok))
.catch((err) => setIsgoogleUp(false));

useEffect(() => {
checkGoogleStatus();
}, []);

return isGoogleUp
? (<span style={{ color: 'green' }}>Google is up!</span>)
: (<span style={{ color: 'red' }}>Can't reach Google.</span>);
};

I can't imagine things being much simpler than this. No extra CSS files. No `Controller` classes. No janky, bespoke HTML "attributes" to make array loops or conditionals work. Just pure JavaScript (JSX optional) painting what you declare. That's my jam. I can't endure the agony of learning another damn template language or SomeCompany's (leaky) abstractions.
> I've learned to avoid software tools that proclaim they are "opinionated" which usually means it's their way or the highway.

What is a good example where software is described by its maker as opinionated and where it results in "their way or the highway"?

I'm asking because all software need defaults and no software can do anything that all users would want, so the software maker has to make choices of what they offer (i.e. reflecting the maker's opinion).

I'd add that I don't feel like neuroticism is an inherently negative thing, but when you're getting into the territory of ruminating about how people will perceive the fairly obvious path you're taking, it does strike me as unhealthy. If I needed to get divorced, would it be healthy to think about the hypothetical impression others would have of that to the point where I wouldn't get divorced?

But there was a period when Java paid the bills, so I got proficient at it. Jumped ship as soon as I was able to.

I still don't know if there's any other language with that amount of "ceremonial syntax" out there.

Most people who take trigonometry (or "precalculus" as they usually call it today) couldn't tell you anything about limits let alone derivatives, integrals, and the fundamental theorem of calculus.

And to those people, the calculator is a magic “black box” that spits out cosines. My original point stands: if you are using a tool professionally you should understand how it works, at least on a basic level. For a calculator, that means calculus, Taylor series, Newton’s method, etc.

I lived in San Francisco for the summer of '92. I couldn't get friends/family to visit from Modesto; everyone said basically the same thing as today: too expensive (even to visit), too much crime, too many "crazy people" (90s for "homeless"), and so on.

I honestly don't think San Francisco is any worse than it was 30 years ago; I just think perceptions and narratives have changed.

The Linux kernel shows that you can have GPL symbols and non-GPL symbols.

Perhaps more relevantly, here is an example of a GPL-ed Lisp implementation which has special provisions that allow proprietary programs to be redistributed which use it:

https://clisp.sourceforge.io/impnotes/faq.html#faq-licensing

One notable rule is that applications that access symbols non-portable internal packages (considered to be CLISP extensions) must comply with the GPL.

FFI is one of those packages. So this probably means that a proprietary application that extends CLISP via FFI (e.g. to call its own proprietary library) must split off that piece away from the application and make it GPL. I'm guessing that the rest of the code, which depends on the CLISP+extension, doesn't have to be GPL.
