Absolutely - your browser should ideally handle it for you and offer to open any Mastodon link in the client of your choice. However, my comment was to indicate that this isn't an inherent issue with Mastodon or ActivityPub.

It's just a 'plumbing' issue, a matter of the rest of the Web ecosystem catching up with the rapid pace of the Fediverse's development.

Releasing the source is nice but they shouldn't use deceptive language.

That's fine but they should call it something else.
Here's where culture might play a role. Failing in Japan might not be as socially accepted as failing in the US (where it's even somewhat celebrated).
BSL is a heck of a lot closer to "open source" than to "closed source".

It's open source, except that you can't use it in a competing commercial product. So for 99% of uses, open source.

I am wrong.

What I was thinking of is the claimed "PFOA-free" on some new cookware is the same as "PFAS-free" which it clearly isn't.

Though PTFE is so inert, I don't think it faces the same problems as PFOA and other PFAS used in firefighting.
Most of what I've seen on HN about Asahi has been enthusiasm and admiration of their rapid progress. Curious what they're seeing.

The original article here also says "The largest proportion of people affected [by being a hikkikomori] were in their 40s or 50s and roughly equally divided between men and women."

The Center for Economic and Policy Research actually notes significantly more female than male NEETs, though the female NEETs were also more likely to be disabled or caretaking for dependants. [0]

I doubt this is misandry in any meaningful sense.

Have you used CapitalIQ, do you use it on the browser or in excel. If you use it on the browser, the experience using beatandraise.com is already better for some cases. For instance, try getting Apple's Rest of Asia Pacific revenues which apple has been highlighting is their main growth region this year, you can pull that out easily. https://imgur.com/a/rRnrB4u

It's not ironic. It's a reflection of the fact that "scientists" are not an homogeneous group, and we are currently living through a slow-moving revolution in which some scientists are, broadly, taking a stand against fraud and attempting to dismantle the power/incentive structures that make it possible to perpetuate. The system is imperfect, and the work is in progress.

"Trust the science" is a poorly-phrased attempt to counter the persistent conspiracy theories that various science disciplines, and the scientists that work therein, are part of this or that conspiracy to reduce your freedoms, mislead the public, etc. Or the related conspiracy theory that science broadly is bullshit and that the primary motivation of any scientific study is the continued justification of funding, rather than pursuit of knowledge.

The fact that scientists can be wrong, some studies are faked or their results are overstated, etc. has little or nothing to do with it.

> I refuse to be browbeaten by priests in lab coats or their acolytes. If you cite scientific papers in front of me trying to make a political case for a course of action, I will use my own judgment, informed by he paper as well as other factors like motivations and so forth.

And this is exactly the kind of attitude that I described above. It's the ACAB approach applied to scientists, where it makes no sense if you look at what scientists actually do and care about. A huge number of scientists are persistently and actively fighting against the "priest in lab coat" archetype.
I see this sort of person as an extremely rigid, unbending, dime a dozen type person even if they’re very intelligent. I’m in this business to succeed and build and create things, there is very much an “energetic” aspect and his energy is dead as fuck. It’s a very simple fact that some see it, and some don’t. He’s one who doesn’t, and all those that see it can see it so clearly. He’s most definitely not someone I would want on my team.

The amount of idiotic … implications of his statement is so excruciating it’s physically painful to me. But I encounter this unadaptive unawareness all the time with working with programmers from other teams, etc so I’m used to it.
> How about a web ring? A manifesto? A good name for it, or several?

Yup, doesn't work either: https://suboptimalism.neocities.org/writings/yesterweb
Kalman filters are used for changing entities. Say you have a moving object. You could measure (with some errors) its position every second and use that as an estimate of where it is. Or use your position measurements in combination with an estimation of the object's speed that you can get from previous measurements and estimate where the object is. The second method is the Kalman filter.
I'm sorry if I disappointed you. We are currently working hard on our first public alpha with examples and will soon release it to the public...

AIs are magic to me. The pattern recognition feature of human I've always thought pretty unique and hard to replicate. We use it when scanning the slop on websites to do some kind of data extraction.

So cool to see the CTO of Sentry here! This makes some sense to me - I'm actually following an issue with Sentry I had recently and although it's not being fixed anytime soon at least I know the status.

https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-python/issues/370

I'd love to believe that one day someone will crack the nut of "Sentry puts a bounty on this issue and YPCrumble decides to make a PR because it's something he's experiencing AND he'd get some experience working on the Sentry codebase which would be a learning opportunity, and he feels like he's getting paid for his time."
I've found it to be 100x

What I can get running in a weekend for my personal use would:

- take 20 days (10x) to turn into something that other teams in the same company can easily consume without much effort on their part

- take 200 days to turn into a public facing product that people would actually use instead of their current thing

IMO, this is why engineers so often look at products and think "Oh, I can build that in a weekend"

I've created plenty of toy languages and reactive UI libraries in a weekend. People may find inspiration and take some ideas from my 2 days of work but nobody is going to use those as a replacement for their current thing without the next 198 days of effort.

A small example: if you can create a "spreadsheet to website generator" in a few hours, it'll be a month before you've built it out enough to launch a product around it that will attract users.
Article author here. I carefully reviewed and tested the ChatGPT scripts before executing them. It helped me save a lot of time manually writing these scripts!

I wouldn't say I lack technical expertise in this area, I'm just trying to use my time as efficiently as possible.
Thing about Henry Ford is, he's dead. _Some_ people actually will be concerned with historical wrongdoing in their brands (remember the episode of Seinfeld where George's mother won't let his father buy a Mercedes, because it's German?) but people are far more likely to be concerned with bad _current_ behaviour. Ford's current CEO's wikipedia page is three paragraphs of very boring career details. That's the sort of wikipedia page you want for the CEO of a consumer products company, really.
Oh I understand how safe helps and all, just wanted to sing Rust’s praises as a less low level memory-focused language too.
Of course it increases sign ups. That doesn't mean the users like it. And those extra sign ups are almost certainly costing you trust from your users (and potential users). And most of those additional sign ups will probably never use your site again. So other than increasing a metric that isn't actually what matters, and maybe getting someone a bonus or promotion for increasing said metric it doesn't help the business, especially in the long term.
> I created a restricted key in Stripe with lowest possible permissions, and prompted ChatGPT to create a script to accept the chargebacks.

From my understanding, it also seems that the author submitted a Stripe API key alongside the prompt to create the scripts. This is pretty much a big security no no regardless of the permissions of the key.
how did you manage everything?
So regulation. I can get into that. Until such regulation exists, phone manufacturers have no incentive to maintain different SKUs.
> This shifted from owning to riding.

No, it's just sampling.

> and not something I'd personally accept as an owner for a few bucks.

Fine, that's you. But it's not a few bucks, it's probably going to add up to thousands of dollars if you do it regularly.

> Uber churns through 96% of their drivers per year

That has nothing to do with car condition and everything to do with people changing income sources.

> but a relatively insignificant portion of people will be willing to loan out their personal vehicle

You have no basis for saying it will be relatively insignificant. People tend to be incentivized by money, that's the whole basis of microeconomics. If people can make back a decent portion of the cost of their car by renting it out when they're not using it, of course it's going to become a significant proportion of people.

I don't see how you can argue against something that's such a no-brainer. You seem to have the luxury of allowing a fear of small amounts of wear-and-tear to override any monetary concerns; but for many people, the additional income is going to take priority because they need the money end-of-story.
I've never heard of memory synthesizers.

I'll cede the point that some of Rust's advantages are merely psychological. But I would argue that most of us are tired, frustrated, and working on teams where we have neither the energy nor authority nor teaching experience to make everyone learn the right tools. I've had to teach some coworkers how to use a profiler. And then remind them to use it.

Therefore mere psychological benefits still improve outcomes.

It's easier to memorize "cargo run" than to memorize the vocabulary quizzes for Python or Kotlin tooling. (A gradle is used to serve soup. A wheel is part of a car.) Rust produces one binary by default, and I don't even have to think about how to bundle a runtime. That means I also don't need to teach anyone what Docker is.

I have a hunch this actually matters. Everyone who's learning to program right now will be deep in their work in 20 years. So every software that's succeeded in my lifetime - JavaScript, Python, Unity 3D, etc., has succeeded by appealing to noobies and then lasting long enough that everyone likes it. In the very long term, a low barrier to entry might matter as much as a high skill ceiling.
Yes, personal/in-house use.
I never thought much about legalization of hard drugs. While for Marijuana there are direct benefits like drug tests, health checks so people don't wake a latent psychosis, for hard drugs it's more complicated. But the people who take those, don't they usually suffer from very serious problems anyway? Probably it's true, if systemic problems don't get solved then fully legalizing hard drugs might make things worse. But if things get legalized in a controlled way, that's actually an opportunity to create a social net for these people.
It's interesting how this site gets around the ``rel="noreferrer"`` added to the link from HN. The banner uses a :visited CSS attribute to selectively show/hide the banner client side if your browser has been to the URL https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36971867. With how many other browser history privacy leaks have been released lately using :visited hacks, I wonder how long it will be until browser vendors disable :visited support across domains entirely.
Damn I love this article, what a cool series of words to say.

And I wrote it, so you know it must be true!
I guess that's partially missing the point. The main benefit of a superconducting maglev is that it's cheaper to build than a on-rails high-speed train. Specially on problematic terrain (what I understand includes every possible East/West route on the US).

So what are these great rebuttals? "Why not provide high-level powerful primitives out of the box?" <- the browser is a 30 year effort to do that and has always failed at it. This thread is full of people complaining that the browser implementations of even basic widgets aren't usable, of course any higher level or more complex features are often missing, and that's with web tech relying heavily on patrons that have budgets the size of the Sun.

So in practice most devs bypasses them and write their own high level primitives anyway, relying on the browser only for low level APIs. That's the point the article is making. Hixie is merely observing that this situation exists, has always existed and probably always will, so browser makers may as well embrace it. And if you see the discussion thread, that's essentially what the Chrome WebUI PM says they plan to do: just talk to the authors of React and other frameworks, ask them what they need and do that i.e. give up on HTML tags like <section> and <progress>, refocus on obscure features that make framework devs happy. And then just tell web devs to adopt a high level framework that isn't HTML.

Building something beyond your ability to maintain it.

You made something overly complicated. But if you revisited later it’s going to be harder to maintain than if you did it less clever/simpler/hackier.

KF gives you the optimal estimate (in the sense of maximum likelihood) for a (multivariate) Gaussian model.

What KF would give you in your example depends on what exactly the model is. But even in the simplest scenario imaginable you'd have to specify what expected value you start with, in the same way that you would in Bayes.

Hey! Thank you for your note. Our project primarily focuses on cryptography verification and access control for data, while also encompassing areas such as zero-knowledge proofs, blockchain, and more. In short, the core of the project consists of a database and a special programming language with code verification. You can find more in our whitepaper and documentation:

- https://docs.adaptframework.solutions/release/0.1/
A lot of factors:

1) People definitely did get away with this, all the time. Historically, researchers had no obligation (at least that was practically enforced) to maintain and share their data and code. Peer review would check for specific methodological flaws and nothing deeper. If someone emailed you about your 1995 study in 2005, you'd say "I no longer have the code," or, more likely, simply never email them back.

2) In a highly competitive landscape where cheating is effective, the "winners" will be heavily selected for willingness to maximize the use of cheating. Even if only 1% of the population is willing to commit explicit fraud, that 1% is going to be heavily overrepresented in a world where explicit fraud gets you the top-tier publications that bring you to prominence.

3) Ariely and Gino both made millions of dollars from their fraud that they will not have to give back. It's worth emphasizing how poorly Ariely's fraud was executed -- he did the laziest possible fraud and easily converted it into money and prestige.

4) Related to the first point, it's hard to overstate how much the culture has shifted since the '08-'12 time period. The replication crisis was just kicking into gear, and only among people who were paying attention to that type of thing. Ariely didn't come up reading Andrew Gelman's blog. There's simply far more light on any paper today than there would've been 10 years ago -- statistical and methodological understanding have come a long way as cohorts of academics came up in the shadow of the replication crisis. Having established credible groups like Data Colada to centralize these analyses has also been a big deal; tenured profs can't bully Data Colada by threatening their career progression the same way they could if accused via email by a random grad student.

That study is much older, though. 2016. This recent government study was reported on in 2023. That 90% quote actually references an even older study, 2008! It could be possible that studies on NEET people were themselves biased in 2008 in a way that future surveys have resolved. Otherwise it might indicate there's a huge wave of women withdrawing from society over the past decade or so, which is a holy fuck situation.
Author here. GPT only got minimal context it needed to run the prompt. No customer data, no IDs, definitely no API keys were passed as a prompt.
there is little to no incentive for these companies to simply open source these applications. customers don’t care if the tool is open source or not, they just want a good simulation.

there is strong disincentive to open source these, because any competitive advantage your tool has with simulation is no longer a competitive advantage.

Ok, and it is completely irrelevant. Besides, guess what enables the training of those neural networks? I’m fairly sure gradient descent has a bit to do with mathematics’ closed-formulas.

Of course ML has use cases where traditional tools are less fit, my gripe is the hype-based anti intellectual nonsense that often surrounds it. They are no magic tools, the fundamental limits these giants of math/CS discovered still apply to them and we can save ourselves from a lot of pain if we don’t bother solving unsolvable problems.
