> What stung before was that people were forced to use Windows because of lock-ins, software compatibility, etc. That doesn’t really exist any more.

That's a funny conclusion to make. In the business world that still exists and even my kids are forced into the Microsoft eco-system by their school because the software they insist you run (for which perfectly good web alternatives exist) only runs on windows.
Thanks for the summary. Are there paid CAs that provide tooling like certbot (or work with it)? I don't particularly care about LE or it being free but I like the tools and people using old devices who are easily scared by warnings should be able to use my website...
Trusted networks are a flawed concept, unless you mean a software-backed tunnel. And I'm glad the slightly-less-mad TLS won over IPSEC with some certificate extension.
There's a middleground between fully useable and brick though.

Not being able to remove or use the main account and having location history always on would go a long way.

People can be trained not to buy a device where the main account can't be removed or the device can't be factory reset, and having the location unable to be disabled would deter a lot of thieves.
The thing is when you build a private network you want it to be private.

The thing is when you are securing a network you are building things with powerful tools.

Thing is using powerful tools can backfire badly.
I'm currently spending a lot of time in La-La-Laplacian Land, so maybe my sense of humour is currently a bit warped. A bit like my filter responses, really.
It's not just loss in performance, it's also loss of your data and control over that data.
Google Lens is in the Google app for iOS.
My problem is I don't know how to simulate without concrete PDK data and get useful numbers. My prototype design will be lost, unguided.

DM to where?
which also brings back the old insight that harvesting greens kills a lot more animals than producing steak does. Though I guess with symbiotic species living inside organisms, that may become debatable? In any case, there is no food consumption without death involved.

Though ultimately, that's not even the point. The larger point is that individual consumer choice does not actually shift the food industry structure, which, again, is neatly exemplified by this entire debate that kicked off these threads: humans don't -choose- bugs. This is a system change. Though of course the change involves better mass production capability and higher rates of profit on the industry side, not "care for nature". Industry doesn't care for anything but profit.
SmolOS Puts a Tiny Posix-Like Environment on Your ESP8266
Android itself (I.e. Google) maintain thier own list; they manage it well IMHO but made a catastrofically bad desision to never update it outside OS versions (they have fixed this in the next release).
> Especially if it's an iPhone.

That was my exact problem, an why I learnt this.

It is easy to install and easy to remove from an iOS device.
The Google app does have a share sheet extension, I just used it.
>They don't use a BSD licensed kernel in many such places (e.g., Android) because Linux is more advanced.

More advanced in what sense? There are lots of devices using BSD, so that's entirely possible.
99% of that is the high dynamic range and presence of a proper subwoofer. Surround adds maybe 1% to the experience. Try it.

They aren't winning either. After weeks of "counteroffensive"[1], the situation on the ground has hardly changed. Even the Institute for the Study of War (which seems to be one of the few sources for unadulterated Western reporting) had to give a little pep talk the other day about "interdiction" in the face of a lack of results.

Considering there has been no negotiations, I don't see how Russia's position can be resolutely that they are going to keep all the land they've occupied.

Consider the fact that in 2008, Russia overran Georgia in a matter of days. Today Georgia is a sovereign and independent state with no Russian troops present (discounting Abkhazia which was previously occupied and complicated).

Russia must want something other than simply conquering its neighbors?

[1] This operation cannot be considered a counteroffensive because the Russians had been conducting a defense for months. However, Ukraine conducting an offensive is quite bad for PR because it makes them sound like the aggressor, which obviously is not the case.
I mean yes that's a weird take, why would MacOS be considered first?

I have a Mac provided by my company. None of my development tools are available there, profiling, debugging is a hassle.

The only way I can work on it is by booting up linux VM, or connecting to my servers to compile there.

Mac is just terrible for development. It's barely better than Windows.
Updated copyright notice, probably. The site recently turned 25. Also I distinctly remember accessing it over a dialup connection long ago.
Yes, the hard part about Linux is finding well supported hardware, I chose a Lenovo laptop that supposedly worked well with Linux, and it mostly did.
Tbf the coca-cola recipe is a more sustainable trade secret, since the product is “perfected”.

GPT4 is a work in progress so a competitor can be objectively better.

I’m hoping for open source models to start incorporating some of these ideas.
Sure they do. Let the modern experts tell us the proper diet we've been apparently doing wrong for tens if not hundreds of thousands of years. A little note: pretty sure all of those were not only rolled back but found that 'modern' diets are harmful: what a surprise.

I invite you to eat the bugs and stop bothering other people what to eat. Likewise, the "food pyramid" popularized from the 1990s has been factually wrong and even harmful to males especially, and only recent studies which have been analyzing the problem for 5-10+ years have been able to 'uncover' this.

People are kidding themselves if they don't understand that >most< of the 'eat the bugs' and 'stop animal suffering' aren't schemes and attempts (make no mistake, of the rich and the 'elite') to transition industries because we(as in the west) have been losing the industry apparatus, especially the food one. Does not mean there are no 'legitimate' movements or people who actually care, but most of them don't, they're just made to believe they do. Same goes for the green push, oh but here come the downvotes...
Great app. I use with cloudron for a while now.
> No cryptographic scheme remains unbreakable forever. If what you want is permanent protection, cryptography is not the solution.

Whilst this has historically been true, it's very plausible that AES-256 means that (for this limited problem, symmetric encryption) we're done.

The "obvious" attack (some type of brute force) on AES-256, even assuming you have a quantum computer (which we don't) and it's actually more affordable than our current computers (which it won't be) is not practical in our universe.
Putting things in a list is not automatically equivalence. Lists can serve many purposes. In this case, they're enumerating a set of different things because the inclusion of one is not obvious based on the inclusion of the others!
That's like trying to advertise tractors to people that want a sport car.
Here are some general tips from someone who is 51.

Give. I give away about a tenth of my income to my church and other projects.

Save. Put some money in stocks and shares monthly (I use a fund)

If money is tight during the month use cash, not cards.

Don't check your finances too often. Establish a fixed routine and stick to it. Mine is monthly.
2.1 or 2.2 is sufficient for nearly all music, but for almost no modern cinema.

The primary mix for movies is basically mono, with sound effects sprinkled around you. If you want a chance to make sense of the dialogue, you really need a good center channel aligned with the center of the screen. The stereo downmixes almost universally suck because they don't boost the center channel enough before splitting it to the left and right speakers.
Of course for Wikipedia specifically you'd use `!wiki query` instead.
I don't know what to tell you.

People were paid to protect someone's stuff, those people were called guards, but they weren't enforcing law. Some people were given ownership of a place and the people in that place, they were called lords or knights, but they weren't enforcing laws, they were enforcing their will.

Some communities had expectations and rules, and the community was self policing - if you did theft, the mob would come punish you. They weren't enforcing laws and certainly weren't paid. Their justice was uneven and often brutal.

Sometimes soldiers would be pressed into enforcing laws, but they were being paid to be soldiers.

Eventually we got to some folks who were paid to enforce laws. Some of the earliest were "Shire Reeves" (from which we derive the word sheriff). A shire reeve was a single man who was charged with keeping order in a shire. That's not exactly enforcing laws, but it's close enough in spirit. A reeve would hire temporary folks in a posse if needed to achieve a temporary goal, but did not have a police department.

Temporary posses were not uniformed, and were typically paid for short term labor - arrest this guy or get that property back. A reeve may have guards for his safety or to intimidate local folks, but those guards weren't really law enforcement.

Around the fourteenth century, governments started relying on formal roles known as justices of peace, or conservators of peace, who were explicitly charged with binding people to laws and enforcing laws. They were relatively large in number and the practice continued through to the industrial revolution. Except JPs weren't paid, they were typically gentry who enjoyed the social status it granted them.

The history of US police is really fascinating, and not something most people really every dive into. They believe it was always this way, but it very much wasn't. Police as a concept like we know them is very, very modern.

This is not how mixture of experts works at all. The experts are chosen on each layer, not for the whole network, and attention is shared between all of them.
I'd argue it is more inertia and lock in, and the fact that the vast majority of desktop PCs come pre-installed with Windows.

Honestly, I spend less time maintaining my Linux desktops than I do fixing the Windows boxes in my house. Had to reinstall Windows completely several times to fix issues with updates not applying and other things that just don't work properly. And don't get me started on the endlessly nested configuration UI in Windows, some bits are modern, some bits seem to date back to XP, nothing is in one place.
Your tinfoil hat is on far too tight.
It's not a simple file sync service.

It has object and face detection. Metadata indexing / searching and multi user support.
Without the need to agree or disagree with the ruling itself (which I cannot read about, as the article is behind a paywall, and I expect that the ruling is more nuanced than what the clickbait title suggests), the fact that a person was condemned for saying something for some reason (provocation to hate I would assume) does not mean that a mastodon server would be liable for relaying the information. Actually, politicians get condemned on a regular basis for diffamation or hate speech, but I never heard of any TV channel or newspaper being sued for having reported on the discourse of said politicians.

I have to say that I expected a bit more, as you mentioned "most content on the internet".
I don't agree, I have an iPad Mini4 from 2015, and that's still good for most day to day tasks (although it feels slower than in the beginning thanks to iOS updates being less optimized).

Same with my mid-2014 13" MBP. While my M1 MBP is a lot faster for things like building complex C++ code bases, for stuff like web browsing the old Intel Mac doesn't feel much different.

Compared to the incredible hardware progress between 1995 and 2005 (where a 2x increase per year was quite normal) it definitely feels like we're on a plateau since around 2010.
They refer to Google translate, couldn't something like that already be used?

I'm not entirely clear what AI brings to the table except risk that it hallucinates.

I use buckets https://www.budgetwithbuckets.com/

I track my balances across various sources, updating once a month. I also set my outgoings.

Funnily enough I don't really use the buckets feature too much, simply the graph over time of savings, and ability to set goals / monthly costs for review is enough.
It's turtles^W GPT all the way down, I guess.
It would be cool if, given a handful of test cases, you could send those off to the LLM to generate even more test cases.

My first thought when looking over this tool was "Why do I have to do all the work?", the ideal scenario is that I give the high level description and the LLM does the hard work to create the best prompt.

These are for ec2 instances. Nowhere close to what low powered servers consime. Also, this is setup for a family.
So many companies shoot themselves in the foot chasing Google/Meta/Netflix backend architectures. If your developer count is in the 10s, you are committing professional negligence chasing a microservices architecture.
The point is that it's infinitely better in not being there "just to take your jobs and make a few VCs richer". Nobody even claimed it's more performant. It's like the difference getting nothing, but keeping your land, and getting glass pearls, losing your land. You have to completely ignore the meat of the argument to even pretend there is a contest.

And this is without considering what happened if we stopped feeding hostile actors and supported ourselves, instead of keeping to do the reverse. Not just here and there, but consistently for decades.
I interpreted openAIs regulatory capture bid as more of an attempt to create competition-hostile regulation than an attempt to reduce regulation to cut costs.

So literally everything other than normal users having a polished out PC OS.
That's an illussion big CAs want to sell. It's not true. Plenty of businesses use Let's Encrypt certificates.

From a technical point of view there is no reason a business cannot use Let's Encrypt. The certificates provide exactly the same security. There is really no difference in the encryption you need for a "personal/hobbyist" site or a business site.

Yeah, CAs still successfully convince some businesses to pay a premium, because they don't understand how TLS works. That mostly works because in "business terms" the price is still low.
The project is under very active development. Expect bugs and changes. Do not use it as the only way to store your photos and videos!

That desktop mode is very inconvenient to use in handheld mode so the vast majority of users use it only to apply fixes to specific games, install emulators and the like and then switch back to the Steam GUI asap.
they produce papers that contain (sometimes) useful ideas. They don't produce code (other than proof of concept) and they certainly can't afford to train a large model
Well, a desktop OS like Windows is not meant to run industrial processes. It's better to not try to hammer nails with the torque wrench.
What's bewildering is that you made this comment after going through the website. Did you even click the link? It's hardly a simple file sync service
As someone who visited countless doctors because none of them could diagnose me, I welcome AI for patient care. I ended up self-diagnosing myself, got a doctor to perform some tests, and confirmed it. I wonder how much my life would have changed if I didn't waste 15 years with misdiagnosis after misdiagnosis.

I think doctors should heavily use AI to help diagnose patients but at the same time, they should know the limits of AI.
What's even the point of having sports separated into women's and “men's” if anyone can just choose where to participate?
It really doesn't. 10 to the 50 is an unimaginably huge number. If you could take this chance, once per second, for your whole lifetime, you've essentially no meaningful chance to succeed - you should do something else.
And yet, in those 250 million years, it's very likely that the genome was completely rewritten. The phenotype of the organism is more stable than its genome. Not a shred of Wikipedia would be left after such a time scale.
Google Classroom, teenager's essays, written by humans, for learning what it means to be human, and graded by humans, is a richer dataset than anything else I can think of that anyone else couldn't get their hands on.

I think Apple will disagree with that “almost has feature parity” claim.

I have not used or even seen neither product, so I wouldn’t know whether they’re right, but do not rule that out, either. For example, the video resolution on Apple’s product is so much higher that it may cross a threshold w.r.t. user experience.

Also, if they did come out with a Quest-based simulator, I think it would be very bad for their marketing.

I would expect ‘the internet’ to say “it’s a Quest, but with a much higher price tag”. How would they go on from there to selling these devices?
If your work does not involve physical work then walk 3 miles a day.

I haven't read the article at all, but what you said just reminded me that I've been using ChatGPT to create Dungeons & Dragons campaigns / adventures / worlds (it's crazy good at that) and one trick i've started doing at the end of a fruitful conversation is to ask it to summarize the discussion so far _in a format to be used as a prompt_. it works more or less.
I think Twitter's engagement metrics are falling so Elon is tweeting like a troll in order to try to boost attention to the site/app.

I think the initial wave of engagement from all the attention created by the sale and layoffs are gone. A lot of people realized that Twitter is worse now than before, so they've stopped using it. That's my guess.

I visit Twitter occasionally and all I see are far-right groups, crypto bros and grifters, and some AI is taking over the world tweets here and there.

It's not all necessarily new, but for example on every update I seem to get 'Operation not permitted' somewhere new.

Then why can't I change the spaces animation (turn it off)? Windows snapping without leaving a gap on the edge of the screen? Etc, etc.

And are they now doing scans for copyright-infringing media and so on - I wouldn't be surprised.

I'm an adult. It's my computer. Let me do what I want with it.
Temporarily store or permanently? What happens when fungi dies? It gets released back into atmosphere through breathing of whatever ate that fungi. Since total mass of fungi is constant, they hold some amount of carbon permanently and regularly capture and release certain amount of carbon but overall amount of captured carbon is constant right?

The only way to permanently store carbon is in ocean floor sediments or in some anoxic environment.
Great, let's call it that then and say it clearly.

Something like: This new "Atmos" is a breakthrough for music because unlike previous 3D immersive sound (using headphones which /will/ be better than speakers) this has the feature of keeping the sound stationary when you turn your head. I mean clearly, other things being equal, that is better, right?

Whether that is an incremental improvement on a scale that Brian flipping Eno needed to do 3D audio on one of more of his albums and whether it's what someone needs to listen to it is something that it really doesn't matter what I think, does it? And whatever anyone thinks of that, 3D audio remains as a thing that is not new.

But yeah I think you mis-wrote 'perfect substitute' in your opening sentence and the degree of imperfection is something that probably needs to be both described and supported.

>people don't listen with their head strapped in place ...

Relative to the sound source, when wearing headphones, they absolutely do.
It's not "just" syntax, so it couldn't "just" be a new edition, but I suppose it's conceivable that a hack could be invented and then the old behaviour grandfathered into prior editions as was done for impl IntoIterator for [T; N] in 2021 Edition.

That's a heavy lift though, you may need to carry this special code around in every compiler, forever, and I haven't even figured out what such code should look like, it might be really hard to even write it.

But usually these other devices can also update their software, it is quite unique for the android operating system to run old and unupdatable software.

Or they should if they are web facing. For security reasons at least.
Yeah they have the internet from before LLMs were used for anything, so the data is not poisoned. Not unlike carbon dating becoming useless for estimating age of anything made after nuclear atmospheric tests, or low-background steel.
It worked fine for me on Android to sync my camera folder, but to my knowledge it is not possible to use it for syncing photos on iOS.
Ask HN: Are you using Code Interpreter on ChatGPT Plus?
I’ve been experimenting with Code Interpreter on ChatGPT Plus for the past three days. To me, it seems like an significant step forward, as I can use it to solve problems and accomplish tasks that would be difficult or impossible for me on my own. But there hasn’t been much discussion of it on HN yet. Are other people here using it? If so, what are your thoughts?

Some recent articles about it:

Since the initial setup has a losing move (lasering your own king), it would be nice if a suicidal (not draw) move was prevented by the UI. The games are quick, but there should be some kind of other draw condition. For example, if there are only 2 kings on the table, it's a boring stalemate unless a player makes a losing move.
