One part of the philosophy of the language maintainers is that they're somewhat humble about their designs in the standard library, and very much against breaking changes.

Some folks prefer absl's flat_hash_map over std::unordered_map for a hash table, and it's not great that you need to choose or risk having both in a codebase, but it _is_ nice that you can have your preferred hash table and use operator[] whichever you decide.

Python also has operator overloading, and people seem to like that numpy can exist using it. And container types. Weirdly doesn't cause much consternation compared to C++ (maybe because the criticisms of the latter come from C programmers?)

I've occasionally missed overloading in JS/TS though.
Also the other side of the coin, little opportunity for growth, you serve an area with a certain population and a commoditized product like water offer little room for improvement, once you run out of quick wins to keep up that growth, you either increase prices or skimp on capital expenditure.
So money printer go shhhhhhh? Times really are changing...
Some of the abstractions seem a bit forced, but it seems nice to be abstracted away from how you'd handle vector storage or the LLM that get used (maybe someone launches something that does better than GPT4 on some sets of tasks and a few line change to swap over would be nice).
MS is playing the long game. They don’t care about this generation. They want to win all future generations.

3rd party support plays a big part in a console’s success. MS is effectively buying out one of the largest 3rd party studios denying its competitors their support.
WordPerfect and Quattro Pro (now WordPerfect Suite, I think) seem to persist due catering to special needs of law firms. Catering to some niche users can keep you afloat despite an otherwise market-dominant competitor.
The other side of overchoice is that the community won't focus on maintaining, supporting, and optimizing one of them in particular, which does become a technical problem as old things fall into disrepair. Even sticking with Ubuntu meant having your entire UI change for no reason a few times. Whereas Mac OS is smoother than all the Linux DEs, isn't too different to use vs 1-2 decades ago, and you can search "how to do X on Mac" pretty easily.

Every Linux desktop user says "use what works best for you, we're all different," but I really don't buy that we're so different to warrant multiple competing DEs / window managers / whatever on top of the same OS.
It’s also possible that translating a coherent thought into words is done on a token by token basis.

I’m surely not the only one who sometimes can’t “find the right word” in the middle of a sentence when trying to describe a thought or idea.
On the contrary, failure to replicate should definitely reduce your posterior probability over the original findings being either true OR useful. True findings should replicate. There are complexities - maybe you can't perfectly recreate the original conditions, especially in non-experimental settings - but broadly speaking replication is the right standard to use.

Do you have sources regarding an anti inflammatory effect of a keto and especially a carnivore diet? I‘m far from a medical expert so I’m genuinely interested.
Same here. Had some family that were long time windows users, got asks a zillion times to upgrade to windows 10. They upgraded and hated it. Asked for help getting linux going. I installed ubuntu LTS, dragged all the icons except file browser, web browser and settings into the trash. Then got their brother laser printer working. They have been very happy since.

Not sure what you're trying to say here.

Yeah it is quite strange. Even the Vision Five 2 RISC-V has better software support than your usual ARM SBC. The big caveat is that the opensource drivers only support Vulkan but Imagination ™ has planned on releasing a Vulkan based OpenGL implementation. Of course application software support is worse than ARM because of recompilation but that is a trivial barrier. If the hardware is any good, distros and developers will compile their packages for the new ISA.
Yes, something like Python generators which have yield and send, but typed, and which compiles down to an efficiently sized struct with a resume function. Here's a crude illustration of what I mean, using pseudo-code describing a TCP session flow:

coroutine tcp_session() {
var syn_packet = @consume();
if(!check_syn_flag(syn_packet)) {
@produce(ERROR_BAD_INPUT);
return;
}
var syn_ack_packet = build_tcp_segment(...);
@produce(syn_ack_packet);
var ack_packet = @consume();
if(!check_ack_flag(ack_packet)) {
@produce(ERROR_BAD_INPUT);
}
// ... proceed with tcp session
}

Such a coroutine would then be usable elsewhere in code like so:

var tcp_connections = map<(ip_address, u16), tcp_session>::new();
// ...
var incoming_ip_packet = read_ip_packet_from_raw_socket();
var result = tcp_connections[get_dst(incoming_ip_packet)].resume(incoming_ip_packet);
if(result == ERROR_BAD_INPUT) {
// ...
}

And the compiler would be able to determine upfront what the size of the tcp_session struct is, so there'd be no need for implicit boxing/heap allocations.

That might be fair in the short term. However it's not a workable option long-term, or all such models will be very limited in their knowledge as humanity advances technologically and culturally.
Unfortunately that is way outside of my budget. At 1.5k, what monitors would you recommend? I would like a larger one.
To add to all of this great info, to any prospective dispersed campers: please use high-quality, recent, ideally official maps of your choosing to ensure you're on the sort of land you think you are. Boundaries can change and notes on spots aren't always up to date. My area involves a mix of national park, national forest, DNR land, and private land, and I regularly see dispersed campers getting ticketed for unwittingly setting up on the wrong side of the (unmarked) park boundary. That's tame compared to what can happen if you're trespassing on private land.
JDownloader, youtube-dl, yt-dlp and many others can also download YouTube videos (and hundreds of other sites). Yes, the last two are command line tools, but if you put them on your desktop you can just drag&drop any YouTube-link on them and it will download it for you

This is incorrect: Epicycles were a model of planetary motion - the theory was that the planets moved around the earth, but also had additional circular motion as they moved along their path around the earth. This model explains the apparent geocentric motion of the planets, much as Newtonian gravity explains the apparent heliocentric motion of the planets (but is also wrong). Finding the exact parameters for the epicycles was the curve fitting part.

We now discount that model because it's based on an incorrect geocentric model of the solar system, but that doesn't mean that the model wasn't a model...

[edit] The CHomsky link is interesting - I just listened to an interview where he pooh-poohs LLMs at great length.

This point: "Statistical models have been proven incapable of learning language; therefore language must be innate, so why are these statistical modelers wasting their time on the wrong enterprise?" is interesting in that context - in the recent interview, Chomsky is now unhappy that LLMs can learn /any/ language, even unnatural ones, and therefore aren't good tools for understanding human language. Quite the reversal. I personally think it's a 'science progresses one funeral at a time' kind of situation...

It's actually a very simple explanation if you have a solid background in trig and complex numbers.
Yes, agreed. I'm doing this as well. Works excellently for NLP classifier tasks.

Funnily enough, there is a certain propensity for it to output round numbers (50, 100, etc.) so I have to ask it not to do this and provide examples ("like 27, 63, or 4"). Now that I think about it I should probably randomize those.
Sort of. Asahi is doing a ton of work on the fan control, touchpad, GPU, video out, 8k page support, and related that isn't normally required to do a Linux Distro. Once all the user space and kernel tweaks are upstreamed then just about any Linux distro will just work. Sure someone will occasionally have to add support for current apple hardware, but that's dramatically less than starting from zero, and might well not happen under Asahi.
And imaginary ;)

I think you mean that we should only use extant fire rings and not make new ones?
Eh, only partially correct...

The battle for the future isn't attention, it's intimacy. LLMs will up the game from broadcast propaganda to individual relationships via digital medium. It will be a two way communication that profiles you and feeds your biases in a much more direct way than even the social media giants themselves have accomplished.

Are you blaming "AI" for identifying you? If that's the case, first, blame reddit, second, whatever "AI" may have helped them has no relation to what's being discussed here. Identifying you would be some kind of big data pattern recognition thing. Neural networks and gradient descent might be able to solve the problem if set up appropriately, but so could lots of other things and fundamentally the issue is data collection, not anything about the state of machine learning or the liberties taken with it.
I think a lot of hackers shy away from doing impactful work because of fear. Sometimes those fears are justified, but it's remarkable how often things that seem like a big deal turn out not to matter. My advice for ambitious devs would be to do what seems interesting, and don't worry too much about threatening letters. Usually the worst thing that happens is that you agree to stop doing whatever generated the threat.

Personally, I'm not worried. It would be a damn shame if academics come under fire merely for trying to operate on the cutting edge of science. None of us were trying to make money; we just wanted to make something interesting.

Thanks! I think we might be putting up a website for it soon, if only to explain ourselves. In the meantime – I hate this phrase, since I don't want followers – the only way to keep informed is to follow my Twitter, and perhaps keep an eye on my HN comments.

You'll probably hear about it either way though, since it's a groundbreaking case. No one has tested the copyrightability of ML models before.
If I buy a new computer, I’m expecting an untrusted key message the first time I SSH to it. Whereas, if suddenly I got that message with an existing box, I’d start investigating. How would trust-on-first-use for HTTP on local network be any different from SSH on local network?

Someone once mentioned "Leave it nicer than you found it" as a life philosophy, maybe in relation to Japan? I'm not sure anymore.

I've taken to that, like when going for a forest walk, even if I pick up literally one tiny plastic wrapper, that's still leaving the forest better than I found it. Of course, pristine is pristine, but if there is trash, go for that good feeling and consider an easy thing to do that would improve the situation by any amount!
There's also a possibility that a sizeable fraction of all stars exist in the intergalactic medium [1], having been ejected from the galaxies where they formed due to galactic collisions or encounters with their original galaxy's supermassive black hole. A civilization evolving around one of these stars in the far future would be totally unaware of the universe outside their own solar system due to cosmic expansion.

My understanding: It's sandboxing to protect against exploits delivered via supply chain attacks, which often use low hanging fruit like hooks on install to steal tokens/etc. It's definitely not perfect, but it does not hurt either.
I'd live to see any kind of quotes for your funny claims considering the fact that pump hydro storage is by far the most mass efficient energy storage we have.

I’ve seen the wave idea implemented, and if you can actually drive the speed limit they are quite nice. However with the inconsiderate types out there blocking lanes and other examples, it’s not always easy to catch. Also, the speed limits tend to be a bit faster than a bike will be going.

A fair point: there may be three unique articles referred to in my list there, rather than four. An additional fake paper on which I could have added to that list revolves around an apparently-modified paper shredder.

However (!) there are a bunch of other Ariely articles which are extremely suspicious and which are suspected of being fake. At this point I would say everything he has ever written should be assumed to be faked.

I expect a broader investigation will reveal more fraud. Apparently Duke doesn't care enough but hopefully some renewed attention to the case will force them to take action.
The huge concern here is not that Microsoft can’t compete, because they can as they have far more studios than Sony does. The issue is their strategy overall which is top earning multi-platform companies, like Bethesda and ActiBlizz, to cut off revenue from competitors. Meanwhile Sony’s biggest acquisitions were studios that mainly focused on their platform to begin with.
I hear what you're saying, and don't disagree. But Steam has become something I dislike enough that I stopped using it years ago. For me, it's GOG, unless I can get the game directly from the publisher.

Google’s head of AR software quits, citing “unstable commitment and vision”
I have enjoyed using Qubes in the past, it's definitely a cool feeling having everything controllable via an abstraction that its author probably wasn't designing for. Feels powerful.

But at the end of the day, those VM images, and any snapshots made, are opaque blobs of bits. Whatever shape they're in, you have nowhere to look to determine why they are the way they are--no recipe for recreating that state and sharing it with others (unless you want to share it ALL with others, and then only with others on the same architecture). You've got a lot of control, but only over these chunks of whatever happened to be there at that time.

You're sort of trapped in one dimension. You can use snapshots to move backwards and forwards in time, but if the following paths don't lead to the same system state in some subtle way you're not going to know about the difference:

path one:

> add foo | add bar | remove foo

path two:

> add bar

Even systems without a profit motive will have to economize, and therefore will track resource usage and discourage waste. The NHS still has e.g. PSAs telling people not to go to the emergency room for non-emergencies.
Adding keras abstractions on top of pytorch seems like negative value-added to me. It only barely abstracts more the easy/mundane stuff, while creating yet another layer of indirection between ideas and machine code in the current Rube-Goldberg mess that people call modern ML.

Keras has always been "lipstick on a pig for tensorflow". Its value beyond that seems tenuous at best.

AMD had an issue, but really it was short term and has been fixed, seemed to only impact a few dozen CPUs and motherboard and only when overclocking a home built machine.

Yes it made quite a bit of news and drama, but it's all fixed.

With all that said Apple does have a premium product that generally "just works", is more power efficient, and has (on average) a longer life cycle than a PC.
There's quite a few Darwin projects. Including the MacOS kernel. Yeah, the naming is not amazing.
on the contrary, everyone of us needs to realize that we are part of a global community and that all of our actions accumulate to have an effect across the world. so instead of saying that this will never work because we are to diverse, instead we need to strive and MAKE IT WORK! put aside our differences, find common ground and build a global cooperative community that includes every human being on this planet.
> LLMs virtually don't move the needle,

I'd say you'll be incorrect in the future. We'll have new abuses by both corporations and propaganda bots in the near future.

More and more of us will find 'digital friends' that creep into our lives and talk to us on line, gain our trust, make us laugh, and tell us that 'unions are bad', or whatever the propaganda of the day is. But it's the one on one relationships with history that will make them different than the bots that came before.
I would define short lived as the difference between dying out in a local star cluster or continuing to expand till the heat death of the universe. A long-lived and expansionary civilization will eventually reach us, even if it takes 1k years to hop from star to star. A short lived civilization will never reach us.
I've generally had no gripes about this or web vitals in general except for one thing: group population[0]. It's unfair to create a blast radius on a small or medium-sized business's website simply because enough data doesn't exist to determine the true extent of the user experience impact.

The most recent example I've observed this on was a website with a heavy interactive location finder experience that lived on a single page. Fine, penalize that page. There's a chance users won't initially navigate there anyway. However, because a (very minimal, practically irrelevant amount of) similar content on the rest of the page was present on 18 other pages, the impact was huge.

The reality of the web today makes this pretty dire in my mind. Many businesses choose to run websites that are generally fast, but they have to engage with third-party services because they don't have the means to build their own map, event scheduler, or form experience. The punishment doesn't fit the crime.
