100%. In fact, I've usually found in my career that serialization/deserialization is the largest latency contributor, except when the API call makes remote database requests or something equally expensive. For the critical path of, say, game state updates, it's best to keep as much as you can in-memory on-box, so ridiculously expensive operations like json deserialization really stand out by comparison. Even for enterprise web crud calls, it's quite important when you're part of a giant ensemble of web calls, some of which may be serially dependent, to worry about things like this.
Betting on user's laziness is usually a good path! I mentioned it in another comment but I think the way we log activities is something that will evolve a lot with good connectors and LLMs. And once you have the right data logged you can think about suggesting the next tasks, performing actions on behalf of the user, etc.

I've followed you on Twitter!
As a fun side note regarding rigorous anatomical study:

It was always very clear to me from my basic anatomical knowledge that the "delts" are obviously divided in three section: anterior, middle and posterior.

Very easy to spot on muscular bodies with lower body fat or verifiable through palpation.

So understandably I was pretty shocked to find out that the deltoid actually has 7 (!) distinct segments ... like with all the anatomical details: tendons, insertions and function; not some weird artifact of dissecting the muscles, but real anatomic structures[0].

And thanks to super-physiological levels of steroids and testosterone it is even visually verifiable on extremely low-fat bodybuilders[1], once you know what to search for.

Rapid: Build blazingly fast web apps – a new framework for Rust
I had to get a notary to sign my I-9 form for a new remote job. The process of identity verification involved a seemingly 19 year old dude looking at my ID and then signing a piece of paper.

A website sending you an email and tracking your IP and keeping a log... seems to be about the same level of trust to be honest.
It can make a pretty big difference if you have lots of money though.

Decisions lightly made can be lightly reversed. It's not exactly hell freezes over situation to see jxl reintroduced to Chrome
First instinct is:

Duh! Of course going from a verbose text format like JSON to _any_ kind of binary format will lead to decreased everything.

Second instinct was:

Wait, were they using HTTP/2, HTTP/3? What JSON parser were they using? One of the fast ones, or one of the slow ones?

Third instinct was:

There is not enough information in the article to conclude "60%" of anything. It's not an apples to apples comparison. It's just an attention-seeking headline.

Then again, if it wasn't an attention seeking headline, it probably wouldn't have made it to HN. ;)
I think there's a difference between the concept of journalism and content creation / copywriting. Both come from the same school programs in a way, but while the latter is pretty trivially replaced by AI, the former is a combination of curiosity, multi-step investigation, physical ferreting of information and sensations, and emotionally charged writing to get a point across in a way that is recognizable as art when well done. Journalism is safe from AI for now, but was not safe from cost-cutting and (infotainementization?) cultural debasement.

A potential upside is: lowering the marginal cost of page filling drivel so much in conjunction with declining advertisement revenue, the whole industry collapses in on itself, taking opinion pieces with it. The baseline for getting out of journalism school would be "write better than an AI", and the reporter jobs themselves become high status / high difficulty again.

A potential downside is: nothing written ever matters again, all information is a rehashed AP cutting with prompt engineering, and AP / Reuters become a set of controlled bottlenecks.

The scary thing is: this will be decided by whether the paying customer wants to be informed, or feel the warm glow of confirmation bias?
Those people are gone from the labor pool. They were a momentary artifact of class mobility that was present up to the early 90s but is no longer a thing
Legality is not the issue here. Not everything that is legal can be published on Steam. The people who make it a legal argument after this article are missing the point.
Yes, I agree that “interpretation is all we have” is the point they are trying to make. I also agree that there is an important point there. Memories are often not what we think they are.

However, in the story, the author did NOT have a memory of breaking a woman’s back. He had a memory of getting in an accident. He interpreted it as his fault. He was told that he broke her back. Not his interpretation. It was a belief about events that he wasn’t present to (what happened in the woman’s car and inside the woman’s body) not really any different than anything else we’re told but don’t witness firsthand. It sounds like it may even have been a lie the police told him to scare him.

Your story is different because you did have an actual experience and misinterpreted it’s meaning (man in red suit = real Santa Claus).
You can do that easily today with medicat (and ventoy).

Yet another wonderful gift given to the world by cigarette smokers, as if the butts/trash everywhere and toxic second-hand smoke wasn't enough.

For those unaware, smokers would get drunk and pass out with lit cigarettes that would set their couch on fire and burn their house down. This lead to a push to cover everything in "flame retardants" which are more accurately called "human retardants", as they do little to actually prevent combustion from an effective source and are tied to everything from cancer to developmental issues.

> you know when you’re trying to use a decorative stud to hold up part of your house

"You" might know it in "your" creations, but in my career I am much more often working and reworking in other people's creations.

I think the point of the article is not that you should avoid using decorative studs as load-bearing elements, but that you should be aware that others may have done so before you came along.

This is an even more conservative position than the default Chesterton's Fence reading, which is itself dismissed by a lot of people as pedantically restrictive.

For me, the parent article resonates. I have definitely had ceilings come crashing down on my head when I removed a piece of "ornamental" trim (programmatically speaking)
This is really great. Love the movie.
Real journalists investigate and discover facts and create new content: "news". But many people working as "journalists" just re-write what other people have reported. The first category can never be replaced by a machine, because the machine can only repeat material it has been fed, or make up lies. The second category should be replaced by machines.

There's unlimited ventures for investigation for anybody who wants to be a journalist, but it takes much more work than rewrites. I read a lot of newspapers, and the news part consist of about 50% rewrites from other sources, 40% mindlessly repeating press releases from companies and government, and at most 10% investigating and actually reporting new knowledge. Even without machines we already have enough tech that re-writes shouldn't be needed.
Email means there's a paper trail. I've had conversations drastically change tone when the medium changed (eg, from text messages to phone call, or from video meeting to email thread).

Some people don't want to be held accountable for what they say.
If your advice to someone struggling to stay organized is "be organized", you probably don't have much experience with ADHD or disorganization problems.
I’ve been on the waitlist to try this for close to 5 years and never once received an email. Now, it is available for everyone to try…so I just installed it. Looks nice enough, but it is too similar to Notion for my taste and since I don’t like using Notion I don’t think I would like using this. I’ll stick with Obsidian because I value the flexibility it gives me (running my own code, customizing everything, etc.)

Arm expands open-source partnerships
w3schools is a for-profit company that survives on its schooling business. Its incentives are mis-aligned with mine: When I search for information on something web-dev related, I want it to be short & to the point. For w3schools, to maximize paid lesson uptake, it needs to only superficially explain what I want to know, enough to leave me confused and willing to pay for lessons.

That is even assuming w3schools has accurate information, which historically they did not, and there is no reason why they will not lapse in this regard in the future.

MDN has better aligned incentives on other hand, if I can find the information I need quickly, then I can developer faster and higher quality websites, which in turn in the aggregate will benefit the participants in MDN who are incentivized to increase their respective browser penetration (etc., I don't want to get into a whole discussion here).

At some point you come to a level where approximately 0% of the w3schools pages contain the information you need, but 100% of the MDN pages. So.. why have the overhead of w3schools results? Also, why develop bad habits early on?
TSMC makes commercial off the shelf chips fore everything, and the DoD happens to make use of some of those off the shelf parts as well, like the FPGAs in the article, but they aren't bespoke designs made to order from the DoD like the ones made on the fabs specific for that.
It's amazing how insanely slow OSes can be too install, even without providing some of these things. I feel like getting a new Debian docker image to apt update takes forever now compared to 1995.

In some instances, there was this "reverse" chauvinism going on. The shape of the human liver was thought to be different for the longest time, I think, because Galen had been dissecting pigs.

So while I wouldn't rule out chauvinism entirely, it's anything but a given.
> How many humans do you want employed as butter churners?

This gets said about every wave of technological driven job loss and it ignores that it is quite difficult for people to change careers in their mid life. Laid off auto workers in the 80s and 90s didn't switch to other manufacturing jobs or "learn to code". They fell down the ladder into service work and became destitute. And the difference with LLMs is that they threaten essentially every human not working in manual labour with the same fate.

> I imagine that the new AI-enabled jobs are going to have so much more autonomy and that we'll see a switch from capital intensive businesses employing lots of people (eg. Hollywood studios) to lots of tiny indie houses with fewer than a dozen folks, building exactly what they want with freedom.

I'm sorry but I can't reconcile this with my view of what is actually going on. The entire point of LLMs being introduced in the film industry is to remove humans from the equation to increase profit margins and avoid having to pay actor/writer residuals. That is where all of the investment money is going, not some utopia where the investment money is being split between AI studios churning out "content" and some small human, indie studios making "art".

Also, one of the ways the indie film scene has survived is as a proving ground for up and coming actors/actresses (it being part of the career ladder for the acting profession provides a supply of actors/actresses despite low pay) who can then go on to more mainstream films and make their living. If we cede the mainstream to AI then that career progression breaks down and indie films become wholly personal passion projects by folks with enough money to have an extremely expensive hobby.
Filming police performing their duties is a constitutionally protected activity affirmed by many circuit courts and strongly alluded to by the SCOTUS.

>On July 1, an Indiana law went into effect making it a crime to come within 25 feet of an on-duty police officer if ordered to stay back. Legislators in Florida, Louisiana, and New York have produced similar laws.

25 feet isn't very far. In the other states mentioned I believe it's 10 feet, which is reasonable. It's been this way for a long time. Sounds like the articles objective is to peddle anger.

>What stops an officer from walking up to someone filming them and then arresting them for being "too close" since they're now <10 feet from officer in question?

It's the incident, not the officer. I'm sure one will try, but it the charges would hopefully be dropped. The government machine does protect itself though.

>Does the 10 foot rule apply if you are the one being spoken to by the police? E.g. if you are recording a traffic stop.

It would not, but one will probably try to say it does. The law is for people who have nothing directly to do with the stop.
The article is pretty light on details as to what makes it "Bayesian". We know that all biological lifeforms can sense and process information to inform their behavior. What makes this computation Bayesian vs Frequentist?

Is it something unique to owls or do all lifeforms perform Bayesian analysis to some extent?

Arc is nice to use but I feel bad using it because it’s Chromium-based, which furthers the growing Chromium monopoly. It bugged me enough that I switched back to Safari and Firefox as my main browser (depending on platform), keeping Arc around only for situations where a Chromelike is required.

Signing documents online is not a technical problem but a business and legal problem. DocuSign and other commercial companies have a business not necessarily because they have any unique technology or the best user experience (they often do), but because they handle all the complex stuff around signing documents.

A reality many people don't see is that many commercial companies really have the expertise in certain areas and have the resources to handle the non technical side of things, at least much better than open source communities. Similar to "open source tax filing software", I'm afraid this is another example of people thinking open source solves every problem. I for one don't see myself using any of such tools unless they are actually reliable, competitive and trusted by many corporations and individuals.
What if you kept the envelope "inflated" using an electric field? Make it out of something conducting, insulate the outside, then charge it up. Self-repulsion will stop it collapsing. I leave the calculations as an exercise for the reader.
> It's also a good way to not really grasp anything deeply.

Having recently done a screenshare with a fresh CS grad as they developed a simple program and seen how much Copilot was doing for them, I was both impressed and appalled. Yes, it's able to do a ton of that simple stuff, but this new grad has no idea _why_ it's doing what it's doing. They are more concerned with getting it done quickly due to not working on the problem early enough (that's a whole other issue).

It genuinely concerns me for the next generation of CS grads and how well they are going to understand the systems they are building. They are already coming out of school unprepared for the professional development world, this is just going to highly exacerbate the problems.
The "Doni Tondo" example in the article isn't a great one imho - the woman is muscular, but not massively built like the other examples in the article. I've seen ladies build biceps like that just carrying a baby around all day.
Do you know what DocuSign is doing on the backend, what logs they're keeping and data they're tracking?
>The funny part is Walmart in Canada fully allows contactless… almost as if they don’t care they aren’t getting that customer data up there.

No it's because our banking system is dramatically different in Canada and the expectations of the average shopper and the POS options available to them here are all working to force that issue.

Canada had chip and pin and contactless LONG LONG before the US did - and it's easier for us to make these pivots and changes due to fewer banks and pre-defined co-operation agreements.
Not in my experience. Notion is faster than Jira. But we don't have super massive wikis, hundreds of pages at most.
I don't think so, it is my understanding that's basically how pulsars already work.

I'm curious about a binary system though. Could it, through tidal locking have the stability to produce the longer duration signal?

You could add these styles to get closer to the CRT look:

Add these to the body style:

text-shadow: 1px 1px 6px #8aff00;
filter: blur(0.3px);
background-image: repeating-linear-gradient( to bottom, rgb(0 0 0), rgb(0 255 76 / 7%) 3px, rgb(100 100 100 / 23%) 7px );

Also bump the font-size to 18px, it looks a bit better imho.

That still leaves us with the second part - "...or negligent". I find it a bit hard to believe that in all those cases the cyclists were at fault? Unless you consider that they were already acting recklessly because they tried to use a bicycle on a public street (I know a lot of people subscribe to this opinion, but I don't).

Right now we have a push-based ad model with a low signal to noise ratio. People are force-fed garbage in the off chance that in a moment of weakness they might accidentally make a purchase not in their best interests. The mutually beneficial aspect of what you're describing (informing people of goods and services at some Pareto optimum which they would actually benefit from) could just as easily be satisfied with a pull-based model, and the low SNR is an artifact of letting de facto scammers pay for the privilege of scamming people.
Painful to import things from Logseq or Obsidian. It imports one md at a time, and the 'zip' thing does not click me.

It seem to focus too much on individual collections and pages and investing time upfront thinking about how to organize and navigate.

Awesome replacement for some things I had in OneNote, thou. Like an easy personal wiki.

But logseq (and as a second choice obsidian) is taking my heart because the activation energy cost is really low to just start writing notes, the flow seems more natural.

It's really an alternative to notion and maybe onenote, but not to whom just want to write more freely and easily finding things later then reorganizing what it's still important with some plugins and keyboard shortcuts (auto/semiauto moving blocks from one md to another).

For instance, daily notes: I don't want to put a title. Just give me the current date, and ability to see previous days in a few keystrokes, some tags for the blocks I'm taking note, that will help me find the related blocks and pages later.

The P2P sync is what made me try the first place. It's working fine, nice!

I did a similar thing with logseq + syncthing, and all my notes are plain files. I can't find the format anytype is using. The local working folder just looks like a standard chrome/electron folder with everything inside. Unusable for my own backup purposes.

Nice to know about in general, ty!
> Does any developer here on HN really believe that JSON parsing (plus schema validation) is what adds the most latency to a request? It just doesn't add up that just switching to PB would deliver that speedup.

50k API endpoints means that probably a lot of them are pretty simple. The simpler the API, the higher percentage of it's time is spent in call overhead, which with JSON is parsing the entire input.
