I agree with the sentiment on lettuce. It should effectively be grown in-store. I'd say that a few other leafy greens fit the bill -- cilantro, basil, spinach, kale. There was a startup operating in my area doing just that, that recently went under. They were focused on higher-price herbs, and I think a major mistake in their model was in using valuable retail space for the hydroponic setups. A couple of stacked containers in the parking lot should be much cheaper, and produce enough volume to be competitive on lower $/kg crops like lettuce and spinach.
The numbers in this article were manipulative to make it sound like the bill was unworkable. But the numbers, removed from weasel words like "up to X" bear out that it's a marginal increase.

He says 1/2 of the cost to produce asparagus is labor. I won't argue with that, it could be although he late complains about the high prices of other things. Later he "cannot raise prices by 50% because the labor costs shot up." If he paid the overtime, his labor costs would have gone up this year by 15%[0]. His total costs by 8%[1]. After the phase in period, his cost of producing asparagus would go up by 10%.

10% is far less than 50%.

Later he claims that "skilled workers make $30/hr". Clearly, the implication is that he pays those workers $30/hr. But he doesn't! For his best paid workers he pays 2/3 of that at $20.XX/hour.[2] That means the overtime rate is what he thinks skilled workers should get paid the entire time!

Edit: I forgot to check, but legal minimum wage is $15.74/hr at his farm. That means he's paying a ~25% premium over what they could make at any other job. That's not much. Especially when he didn't pay overtime over 40 hrs/week.

[0] They worked 70 hrs/week. Everything after 48 is 1.5x time. So that's 22 hours at time and a half, or an extra 11 hours of pay on top of 70 hours already.

[1] Rounding numbers make 15% and 8%

[2] Some made "over $1400/week" @ 70 hours/week and everyone makes "under $1000/week" @ 48 hours/week

Idle fees and parking fees are a solution. Say $1/min after charging has finished. Feel free to eat elsewhere while your vehicle racks up huge parking fees.

By the way, I think with how fast DCFC is becoming, we are currently in a weird situation where there's still time for people to have a meal. In the near future, charging would be so fast that you basically have to stay with the vehicle.
I did update my program, now it measures the ratio.
Amazon thought that the person had already shouted a slur at the driver. They were wrong, but if they had been right blocking further deliveries to protect the drivers would have been reasonable (if it was just that)

With global warming hitting hard, many countries can no longer afford to export food for various reasons.

This is true given the US’s case where we still export animal feed that was grown in the desert.
It's hard to think of something I wish I knew earlier tbh. Svelte (and SvelteKit) are just so simple and approachable that I feel like whenever I need to do something new I can just try what feels most intuitive and it just works. I've heard the same thing from a lot of other people too. If anything I would just keep an eye on reactive statements; I wouldn't trade them for the world but they can be dangerous if you don't keep an eye on them.
Single-AZ i not single-host though, and while a single AZ can go down for major events, it doesn't break because a single piece of hardware failed.
Manure produced by pasture-raised livestock is great! When the herd moves across the grasslands, it is similar to how the vast bison herds contribute back to the grasslands. That manure gets trampled back down into the grassland, where it helps restore the soil. When the grassy area is eaten to a certain point, you move the herd to a new area and let the old one rest.

The problem with feedlots is that the manure accumulates. The ground is eaten until it is nothing (because you have the feed), and then the grass dies. Then the soil gets compacted. Meanwhile, since there is nowhere for the manure to go, and it is not being consumed by the grasses, it ends up become sludge, a source of health problems.

> Everyone is arguing for the industrial meat industry at large. Free range meat will not produce anywhere near the same amount as the industrial industry.

If the meat supply is reduced then so be it. And remember, the higher the quality of the meat, the less of it you need in your diet. But that's far different from a policy stance of zero-tolerance for meat, anywhere and everywhere.

Never forget that 20% of Americans reject the concept of evolution outright, up to and including admitting they believe the earth to be less than 10k years old

https://ncse.ngo/just-how-many-young-earth-creationists-are-...

American christianity refuses to acknowledged reality, so of course they don't care that scientists say the earth is warming because all of science is a Devil's plot to make them stop believing in God.

Seriously, it's that simple. As many as 20% of Americans simply have no fucking clue how the earth works and refuse to accept anything from any "expert" because they legitimately believe it to be a test of their religion. No evidence will ever convince them because they abandoned reality and evidence from the very beginning!
I'm the author of the article. I actually shared a prototype towards the end of the article, of the idea implemented in CDK. I agree that you can do a lot of this already in CDK, CDKTF, and Pulumi. I just don't think most people are actually doing it (yet).

I've been using CDK since early beta, and have actively contributed to the project. But most people that I'm seeing using it today are just wrapping up new higher abstractions with a simpler but limited API. I think that is an okay start, but I want to encourage people to think more about the infrastructure as being made up of traits/classes/adjectives that are mixed together to form the final product. The same way we have class inheritance in object oriented programming, or CSS classes in HTML.

Eventually the dream is to be able to provide a library of standard infrastructure as code mix-ins that can be applied to your cloud architecture. For example imagine if you could apply a generic "Graviton" trait to a CloudFormation or Terraform or Pulumi or CDK stack and it would automatically configure the appropriate properties on your EC2 instances, and your RDS database, and your Fargate tasks, and all your other compute. With CDK's built-in container and image builds it could even run your Dockerfile based build inside of the matching architecture as well, all based on a single trait that you add to your stack.

There are a wide variety of these types of "traits" that you might be able to build and add.
Yeah but people are out here paying $39,000/yr to do the same thing they could do for free with a tool like Nango. Makes no sense fr
what? if a computer control is installed to a physical anything, you can always add cutoffs to the control at the physical point so that even if the computer is telling it to do something the physical thing no longer receives those controls/signals. designing it without those safety precautions would be 100% asinine. it'd be like allowing openai to design everything with no controls. even Musk allows the drivers to take control away when FSD is engaged.

you're bonkers if you think we can't make manual overrides like this.

Maybe a bit off topic, but my first thought was wondering whether the OSINT community would get any further with figuring out who it was, but I then realised, the OSINT community often look successful because they publish, but we don't know if "closed source" intelligence knows the same things or is even more successful, but just doesn't publish.

Does anyone have any evidence one way or another? Are OSINT thinking outside the box and doing something materially different, or are they just visible? Are traditional intelligence communities still doing this but just being understandable secretive about methods?

This is not to down play the importance of the OSINT community in any way, I believe publishing does materially change things by increasing accountability to the public.
If they are nor copyrightable, that'll be the end of publicly-released weights by for-profit companies. All subsequent models will be served behind an API.
In case anyone didn't know: most charger manufacturers are terrible. Terrible software, terrible hardware. Like, we hired a kid out of high school and he's googling what HTTP is bad. Basic features of common standards just unimplemented. Seems like they have no tests at all. Gas station pumps are more advanced. You buy a charger and try to get them on the phone to get technical specs, and they literally ignore you. Rolling out new charging infrastructure is being delayed for months and months because they can't get some basic features implemented.
I hope at least some republican lawmakers aren't too senile to recognise the threat this poses. AI will play a huge role in our futures, and if OpenAI, Google et al. get their way, it'll essentially be illegal to have an AI capable of expressing conservative political views.
"mandate to be x every y of z" means it will be financed with taxes, debt and subsidies, which leads to inflation and lower growth.

That means, again, that poor people and those without ev cars will finance those who have.

The article quotes the OP saying they hope it gets picked up by bot-driven news sites. While it’s possible, I don’t think a human would include that bit.
I think deaths from malnutrition are shameful regardless of age, but I think that's far more an issue of how we distribute resources than our actual ability to produce calories from the land. Aside from simple inequality, both food waste and meat production are huge sources of inefficiency.

In recent decades, actual deaths from malnutrition have declined meaningfully though we still have a ways to go. And IIRC the absolute numbers of people suffering from malnutrition, though a couple orders of magnitude larger than those that are actually killed by it, has also declined in absolute terms, even as the population has grown.

If you're actually concerned about children starving to death, rather than make comments against people trying to avoid species destruction, you might do more good by giving up meat, aggressively reducing food waste, and making periodic donations to an organization like Direct Relief International.

I mentioned bad faith not out of disagreement but because it seemed like you were dodging the points brought up. This thread began by stating the war was begun by malicious American entities, in its entirety.

They aren't mutually exclusive, but again, the occupation of gas fields, and now the embargo of grain, is about depriving the Ukrainian government. not domestic shortages. That is the thing that makes me mention bad faith. I have researched these agendas, and I recheck the records and rumors frequently. The zeihen doomerism is disenguine hawking of his trade and book, but what makes you think that this war is all an American diplomatic failure brought at the behest of western billionaires? A war is complicated, and simplifying it isn't helpful.
I'd love to read a write-up once you're done :)
The problem is as old as agriculture itself and we've known the solution too for millinea: Store surpluses that can be used in lean years.

But in India procurement, storage and sale of agricultural produce are all wrapped up in a maze of Byzantine laws. As a result, availability of financing and infrastructure is abysmal. The first modern rice silos in the country are only expected to start operations in the next month or so.

Does it matter which it is? They agreed to do the job for the compensation that was offered because it was better than something else. This nation was built by immigrants that came here with nothing and worked their asses off to improve their family circumstance. How many generations ago did your family move here? How did the first US generation of your family work and live? Where is your family now? That path has to remain open. Labor laws handed down from on high have been progressively making it more difficult to start from nothing and become something.

Like many in the country, my great grandparents moved to the US with essentially nothing, not speaking much, if any, English. They worked as farmers with lots of children to get the work done. Nobody in my family are currently farmers. Many in my current family generation work high paying jobs, many don't. I am not saying that farming is a bad job. It is necessary. Just illustrating that the possibility, not guarantee, of upward mobility is what makes this country great.
$0.80 per word is actually really decent money; I'd expect them to be paying a lot less.

I created a website that does the following:

- pick HN items with more than 400 votes

- gather their titles in a list

- ask the AI to filter out the ones that are not tech-related (bay-area topics, politics)

- scrape selected articles

- write summaries

- publish static website

other sources are reddit subreddits and rss feeds (official languages' blogs and github's releases page).
The AI is quite gullible. That can be avoided by giving it more context and having a review step where you make sure that you are enforcing your editorial rules.
Another thing that I've been wondering is having a cheaper model (gpt-turbo-3.5) write articles and then use a more sophisticated to review them (gpt4)

I speak of the word order. First me, then my sister.
Yours is a pretty common take I see among climate skeptics, and it's getting downvoted without serious rebuttals, so I'll try a serious rebuttal.

1. If you're not seeing how it's already happening, maybe you don't want to see it? Forest fires, extreme heat waves, coral bleaching, flooding, escalating storms, ... For sure there are denials of those things all over the internet ("it's always been this bad", "it's not actually that bad"), but those denials are wrong when you fact check them. And this is nothing really, we've barely had any consequences of global warming. If you go back and look at the IPCC predictions even from the 90's you'll find they were pretty accurate with where we are today. The current IPCC report is pretty much settled science, and the outlook is not good.

2. The BRIC countries definitely need to do their part, but "what about tommy" is not a defense in kindergarten and for sure is not one for grown up countries. Most of the carbon that's up there was put there by the west, and the west is still putting more up there year by year than ever before. The notion that the west already did its part is provably false. Western countries carry the largest responsibility because they're the ones that "spent" the carbon budget preventing others from industrializing in the same way. If and when they are doing their part, then and only then will they have the moral high ground to start demanding the same from other countries.

3. Greta Thunberg has a solid handle on climate science, a more solid grasp than most of her critics, and is mostly right about climate facts. She is also very extreme in her climate opinions, which has allowed others to dismiss her as a wacko. Usually her speeches when read in their entirety make a lot of sense, but the distortion that gets reported by popular press makes it easy to dismiss her. What I would suggest is to go straight to the source and read her climate book. It contains her actual views and the facts they are based on, and if nothing else it will allow you to empathize with her point of view, even if you don't end up agreeing with it. If you think she's a puppet or a wacko I feel confident in saying you know nothing about her at all, and have been forming your opinions based on misrepresentations of her in the media.

Indeed, Scrum looks nice in theory, and can be nice in practice (from my personal experience), because in theory it is about self-organizing of teams and collaboration with the product owner.

In practice however in so many companies it is totally twisted and used as a method of control, and applying pressure, as you said by e.g. making metrics bonus relevant.
No, because the premise of the hypothetical is that the weights aren't protected by copyright.

So, no matter what they TOS says, it's not an infringing work.

> Downstream users can't just integrate the derivative work into a product without abiding by the GPL terms

You absolutely could do this if the original work is not protected by copyright, or if you use it in a way that is transformative and fair use.

Thanks for saying this. It's really heartening to see people with this understanding.

So typically there's a lot of exposure, facilitation, and processing work FIRST. There's not really a route to forgiveness in my opinion until someone is pretty deeply in touch with all the feelings associated with how they were treated. I take a mindful self-compassion approach to experiencing and reprocessing memories and emotions drawing a lot from Paul Gilbert, a self-compassion researcher and advocate in the UK.

Once a lot of the feelings have been processed, including anger and resentment, we often get to a point where the anger doesn't seem to serve much purpose for the person anymore. It's not covering up something they didn't want to feel (guilt, shame, sadness, fear, etc) and it's not "punishing their parents" in a way that many people hold on to. More often than not, the client just spontaneously forgives at that point, and forgiveness looks like seeing the situation as a bad one that everyone involved was stuck in and no longer having a need for the perpetrator to suffer or take responsibility.

So acceptance and compassion then processing and reprocessing with self-compassion. Sometimes a discussion of blame and forgiveness and what they do and don't mean.
Hotels in the suburbs and rural areas will start offering charging though. A lot of people on those areas drive and as drivers switch to EVs they will discover chargers is something their customers look for.

Of course it will start with the expensive hotels and move down the price range. People who look for cheap budget hotels drive cheap used cars and so they have not yet reached the early adopter stage of EVs (the early adopters might have a 2011 leaf, but that isn't a road trip car) while people who stay at expensive hotels have already looked at a new EV (they probably haven't bought one yet, but they have seriously considered it)
FWIW as a current EV owner (and have been for some time w/ Tesla) trying to make sure to charge to 80% like that before returning the vehicle or face a fee would stress me out to the point I'd probably rent a gas-powered car just to avoid that.
Worrying about censorship and job losses is so myopic my eyes are cringing just thinking about it.

This is akin to a ship sinking while people are blocking the hallways and fretting about how their makeup looks and where they put their jewelry at. It's so maddeningly absurd there's no point in even discussion, shove them in the nearest cabin and out of the way so the serious people can get on with it.
I don't see how this would be enforceable in law without killing almost every AI company on the market today.

The whole legal premise of these models is that training on copyrighted material is fair use. If it's not, then... I mean is Facebook trying to claim that including copyrighted material in a dataset isn't fair use regardless of the author's wishes? Because I have bad news for LLaMA then.

"You need permission to train on this" is an interesting legal stance for any AI company to take.
> Rental car companies typically charge 3-4 times the street price per gallon to fill up your gas car.

Not my experience with Enterprise brands or Avis Budget brands in the last 15 years. It might be 10 cents or 20 cents more per gallon, but nothing extortionate. The convenience of not having to worry about filling up your gas while on vacation or business is well worth it to me for the small premium I might pay.
Haha, imagine what the AWS status page would look like if they had to update their global status page anytime a single host would go down in any region.

Fly.io messed up, they didn't want to be a Heroku clone, but their marketing and their polished user experience design made it seem like they would be one anyway.

And as a reward now they have to deal with bottom of the barrel Heroku users that manage to do major damage to their brand whenever a single host goes down. Who would have predicted that corporate risk?
