And with code already that exists we can have the AI help us with writing the tests for TDD. Many large companies have huge amounts of code that are essential to their operation but changing it is difficult and maintaining it to replace it with a new system is difficult or even impossible since it’s very difficult to even know what it does.
At the moment no, but on the road map.

Import: Nomadlist, Google Maps places, Airbnb stays, Foursquare/Swarm checkins and lists.

Export: Trips to excel.

Anything specific you’d like to see?
Neither did I get that impression. I was speaking only for myself. Maybe the inconsistency in the law is good from a utilitarian point of view.
But that is the entire point of the comparison. I get that you think an apples to apples comparison is the most honest way to portray this, but the whole point is to portray that this is an apples to oranges comparison. Linux has millions of lines of code running in ring 0, a micro kernel does not. They may end up having the same lines of code for comparable total system size, but that isn’t the point of the comparison.

Process isolation actually isn’t fundamentally hard…it’s just hard on a system that wasn’t designed for it. And SELinux doesn’t do what microkernels do. Even with a tightly locked down SELinux configuration, a driver vulnerability can lead to root access. SELinux can protect your userland the same way that microkernels do, but it can’t put your drivers in userland.
Schools should honestly have two parallel tracks of math (which students should take at the same time). There should be the standard "analysis" mathematics of algebra, geometry, trigonometry, calculus. But there should also be a track of (what I will shorthand to) Discrete mathematics, which focuses on proofs, combinatorics/ probability, number theory, graphs, etc. Discrete Mathematics used to very much be a niche mathematical field, who needs to know about number theory!? But computers has really made these other fields incredibly important to modern society. Plus writing proofs is a good exercise for anyone.

A similar comment was in a dialogue in the Expanse series. I forget which character said it, but the gist was the same. It's a good lesson.
My uncle had ALS and was slowly losing his ability to speak. I visited and in order to hear him, we had to gather around him closely. It was very fatiguing for him to project his voice.

I went to a few audio stores and jerryrigged a portable mic-speaker setup that could attach to his wheelchair. No software, just the right series of devices and adapters. It worked well and provided a huge relief for him and our family. Nothing impressive technically, but definitely the physical thing I'm most proud of making.

Awesome! Can you talk a bit about how you trained or fine-tuned MediSearch's LLM?
Ohio has a good implementation of safety messages in my opinion: http://zerodeaths.ohio.gov/create-your-message.aspx

Whoever they have picking messages is doing a really good job keeping things consistently corny.

Around here, the signs flip between time and distance to other highways or cities and a safety message. If there is an accident closing lanes, that's displayed instead of the safety message. The signs seem okay at night. Nothing like blinding billboards.
Not the coolest, but a thing I've shared publicly that's whimsical and was fun to make.

I love this.

Objects are created to better our lives. Not the other way around.

It's like Cameron's dad in Ferris Bueller's day off.
This is how process nodes have always been discussed. 3nm is the smallest feature size.

That said, no, most devices that are digital logic DO scale proportionally. And the A17 series, almost everything is digital logic, so I expect it will either be substantially smaller or more performant, or likely both.

TSMC claims the following (vs. 5nm):

* 25-30% power reduction (for same logic)

* 10-15% performance increase (for same logic)

* 1.7x reduction in area (for same logic) (i.e., -42% size)
True, but people have already been killed plenty of times through history from incorrect identification by human facial recognition.

So there are other systems and checks-and-balances that need improvement too.
You can certainly join teams and projects that work on "important issues" - whichever you feel these are. You don't need to solve them all by yourself.

You also don't need to do any of the technical work yourself. You can do HR, funding, art, management for that team.
I made a “pizza wrap” that had butter chicken with cheese on top. I’ve never topped it since.
It's not the IT admins, it's the CISO or equivalent. At their level they will be concerned with approving anything that's not widely popular and may be perceived as an "unsafe" choice. An extension of the age-old "nobody ever got fired for choosing IBM" line of thinking.

I guess we have very different definitions of "works perfectly". Sure, the page displays as intended, if that's what you mean. Tiny 3 pixel high links are neither accessible nor very usable.
Isn't the usual theory for this that they're pulling up the ladder? They get billions in funding which they can use to absorb regulatory overhead, then the regulations come which price out early stage competitors and make it harder for anyone else to raise the kind of funding they've already secured.
Nice game, I only went till 10.45 Billion.
Extreme wealth distributions also indicate a tiny, extremely wealthy elite who, from their multi-million pound London flats, are happy to sell everything about their home countries to anyone who will pay.
I think annoying and counterintuitive are exactly the right words for numeric types that don’t obey the associative property over addition.
You are misreading and misunderstanding this whole paragraph.

The purpose of 10.4 is to allow zoom to send your call to other services, like say YouTube for live streaming, or any of the dozens of other services that integrate with their APIs. Without 10.4, three quarters or more of Zooms use cases would no longer work.
Sorry about the relationship not working out. That art is a beautiful piece of work.
Interconnected old mainframe systems fwiw... In the end, a lot of these banking systems are connected back to mainframe systems with a LOT of legacy cruft that nobody has the nerve to actually update. It may not even be hashed or encrypted, which is part of why banks also add a second factor/cookie, though the implementation could/should be better.
Yes, we largely agree with you on that. The APIs are high-level enough that wrapping really doesn't add much value in many circumstances.

We chose to do this for our first module to take a stab at integrating RAG pipelines in a coherent manner, but we don't plan on following this pattern in all modules within our framework. There is possibly one exception here, which is that an interface that allows composable middleware for things like logging, error handling, or redirecting of requests may justify wrapping in some places.

The next steps for us involve lower-level functionality. One need we see again and again is more robust data extraction and processing. Most people we talk to who use other community projects (e.g., langchain or llama) find that data loading and chunking are among the most valuable parts of those libraries. We agree, but would like more robust functionality for these tasks, so this is one thing we're working towards next.

Beyond that, we're working on infrastructure. Easy model serving from Node (for OSS or proprietary models), monitoring, and pipelines for fine-tuning based on production inference results.
I think you're looking at it with malice in mind. I see it as more of a "Lets get work to remote countries that typically wouldn't and show people that they can be quality developers"
I'm not sure, but I believe I was on Windows 10 at the time. Shortly after this, I checked the appropriate boxes on my router (UDM-PRO) and my home network now supports IPv6. Passed all the tests on that website at least.
As a totally ignorant person to CPU architecture, I do wonder what was wrong with OpenSPARC.

I remember hearing about it back in college in the 2000s and thinking "wow, open source hardware! This is revolutionary!". I'm sure there is a good reason it didn't work/scale, but does anyone here know?
From a read perspective I would agree but from a write perspective if the partition is not available? (genuinely asking)
The article mentions that you can track the Temperature of surfaces with an "inexpensive infrared thermometer". Then you could calculate the "operative temperature" as the average of Mean radiant and the air temperature.

But yeah, if you want to fully automate it you'll need to figure out a way to gather those readings from the various surfaces.
There are easy workarounds on the income phase-out though. For example I would never have qualified for the EV rebate on my PHEV Honda Clarity, so instead I leased the car, Honda got the rebate, I got the lower price, and a month later I bought out the lease.
That's up to users to decide, isn't it?

Many people appreciate payments the state cannot arbitrarily censor. Blockchains are good at this.
I am anti-cruelty and suffering, but it is not always cruel to force someone to do something they don't want to do, and it is not always kind to give them what they want.

If the choice is between them getting back on their feet but having to put the dog up for adoption (which is what I meant, not executing the dog on the spot), vs being stuck indefinitely homeless, I know which one I'm picking.

And again, I don't think "dogs" are the main impediment to homeless rehabilitation, the whole discussion is a sideshow. It was an illustrative example about well meaning intentions gone awry.
Zoom's TOS Permit Training AI on User Content Without Opt-Out
A recent comment (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36286548) made me notice chroma contamination in low-BPP JPEG XL in this comparison. Since then, I have been leaning towards adopting AVIF for medium-low-quality pictures, especially of people. (People will be unhappy if their teeth are yellowed in post-production.) I am not so sure about AVIF and the sky. A reply to the comment I have linked shows an example where AVIF smooths out a complex sky texture at every tested quality setting, but JPEG XL does not: https://afontenot.github.io/image-formats-comparison/#reykja....

AVIF is missing JPEG XL's ability to re-encode JPEGs losslessly and reversibly with a reduction in file size. It may prove a serious advantage for JPEG XL. AVIF also lacks anything like https://jpegxl.info/art/. :-)
Can an AI physically go to the DMV and get a REAL-ID? If we reach the point where this seriously is a concern, then we will have other, much larger problems to deal with. WorldCoin feel like a scam. The crypto aspect and then paying people in Africa to gaze into metal orbs and get their irises scanned (with funding from A-Z and Vinod Khosla), ... it's not exactly a confidence builder.
The processor itself doesn't enforce W^X protection; even though writable pages are NX by convention, nothing inherently stops you from using (the equivalent of) mmap(PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE | PROT_EXEC) and copying the instructions in, or doing the same with existing pages using mprotect(), at which point you can hotpatch as much as you want. Of course, some OSes forbid this as a hardening measure, but allowing it remains very common.
Given that we'd have to all conspire to respect the UBI token while we replaced the government, I'd classify it as cryptocommunism, but I take your point.

I just have a hard time imagining a government that both:

- keeps the U in UBI

- is not under some kind if existential threat from its people

You need the latter to have the former. But if you're coordinated to achieve the latter then you don't really need the government to achieve the former anyway.
Back when I was at Pixar, I remember hearing a lot about the cloth sims for Brave (2012). The clothing was heavily layered, with each layer adding volume. Here's one public article:

https://pixartimes.com/2012/04/09/close-up-the-amazing-desig...

"To achieve the mass of Fergus' kilt, the drape going across his chest has eight layers of cloth folded over and interacting with each other and other garments. The left, right and back sides of the drape have six layers each."

A couple bad review cycles to firing is if you are significantly under-performing, not doing no work at all.

If you do absolutely no work, your manager will generally inquire about your state of motivation pretty quickly. You will be referred to internal or external resources to help you find your motivation, but if you refuse help or don't change course, you will be generally fired well before 2 review cycles. It's pretty rare for people to produce absolutely nothing though.
That key thing is really handy if you need to make use of it. For Reasons, my friends and I had a period with fewer cars than people who needed one, but one was a Tesla. We spent far less time coordinating the passing off of the key for the Tesla because we just didn't have to, as opposed to a whole rigamarole with having to pass around the keys to the other cars. It's enough that I want to retrofit my car with an electronic lock some how, but that doesn't seem to be a thing, so I'll have to settle for an ordinary combo lockbox hidden away, which feels much less secure.
I wouldn’t worry about maximizing learning at that age, it’s much more about physical and social development. Being “ahead” at age 3 is basically irrelevant long term

The biggest, most important problem to work on right now is any and every problem that's currently leading to the destruction of our planet's natural systems. Unchecked greed, rampant extreme inequality, resource abuse/waste, dis/misinformation, political extremism, all of the general stupidity that many (most?) of our richest, most powerful humans are guilty of encouraging/contributing to in the general populace of Planet Earth these days. If you can "increase user engagement" in anything that improves one of these critical areas, or anything related, you're doing humanity (and all life on Earth, really) a service.
I got really into Indian classical music at one point some years back. I was learning to play the tabla drums from a really skilled teacher that I got connected with through a friend. Was a great opportunity to learn an interesting skill and related to my overall musical interests.

Anyway, I got a basic set of tabla drums that came with a pair of supporting rings and covers. But the rings and covers weren't very good quality. So I went to hobby lobby and my hardware store and bought some piping, plywood, fabric, and lace and made a very nice set of rings and covers by hand. Was a really fun project and came out very nicely. My teacher couldn't believe I went to all the trouble.

Another honorable mention is that I did Ben Eater's 8-bit breadboard computer project. Took a long time and I learned a lot about EE.
Okay, $280M is a lot of money for most people, but even for Musk? I get it that most of his wealth isn't immediately liquid, but I would've thought that he won't go for other investors getting this money.
Because everyone knows that the trouble with people pretending dead people are still alive to collect their entitlements or obtaining access to other peoples accounts is lack of a VC backed startup that prints its own crypto tokens and scans people's eyeballs...

The actual problems here are both hard and not being solved by WorldCoin
When I was in school back home in India, my mom wouldn't buy a ping pong paddle for me to play with friends since it was expensive. So, I decided to cut down old notebook cardboard covers and I made one for myself by glueing 7-8 hard cardboard notebook covers.

I know, sounds lame but this is all I can remember. :D
This is amazing! It almost never hallucinates. How did you guys accomplish that?

I was just traveling recently and found a number of iris art shops set up in high traffic tourist areas. These IRis Art shops (places that scan your iris and enlarge it into a picture for you) seem to me to be capable of the same aim as world coin.

You parent however you want, but instead of looking for an AP daycare how about let them expand as a toddler and then a child? Must be your first, because I got news for you, no two year old is "ahead of his class", except maybe in how big they are, or how much they eat, sleep and shit.
> It is wild to me that Altman seems to really believe his company will have a God-On-Earth within the next decade and he still wants to put his name and time into some side hustle?

Promotional statements by corporate executives aren’t necessary reflective of their beliefs, but rather what they believe it is useful for other people to believe they believe, and Worldcoin isn’t a side hustle.
It's only a violation of personal freedom in the most obtuse sense where anything that dissuades or prevents you from doing anything you want (everybody's so creative) is an infringement on your personal freedoms. There's this saying that, if all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail; as for Americans, when all you care about is personal freedom, everything looks like an infringement.

Something that went largely ignored by the personal freedom crowd during the pandemic is one's right to life. The government is duty-bound to protect your right to life, or at least it should be. And so it's not much of a decision between requiring masks to enter certain spaces versus letting vast swaths of the population die. (There's a great book about this called Emergency State by Adam Wagner).

Here in the UK, the zeitgeist around the seatbelt wearing is different: there's not much, if any objection to seatbelt laws. And no doubt part of that is our socialised healthcare system: you not wearing a seatbelt is a direct burden on the taxpayer. You guys in America don't have socialised healthcare, or at least nowhere near to the same extent, but the question still remains the same... you still have insurance. Are you okay with your insurance premiums paying for stupid people inflicting themselves with entirely preventable injuries from taking an ideological stance against seatbelts? Your premiums will likely go up the more this happens. I remember one rather harrowing conversation with an American who said that, in such situations, the insurance company should be able to deny coverage... and I guess I'm just horrified at what kind of society that is that discards its citizens to die like that.

Another point is that you are infinitely less able to control a vehicle in an accident while flying through the windscreen, so not wearing a seatbelt is not only a deadly danger to yourself, but poses an inherent risk to other drivers and pedestrians. And depending on the accident, you becoming a projectile can and will kill other people in the car (eg: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=y3InF19dzlM). Does this not matter?
Also more open positions, at least in some market.
Yeah, my opinion is honestly that even though the Vision Pro is impressive on a technical level by virtue of probably being the best the XR industry can offer right now, it's still not nearly sufficient to reach the clarity of a 4K monitor that costs 50x less (if the $3,500 price estimate is at all accurate). It would drive me nuts trying to work with text on such a display, which is a problem based on how much code I write and how much time I spend chatting on platforms like Discord.

Does nobody here see the irony in bending over backwards to avoid spending money on software products when the entire purpose of your business is to sell a software product?

I could see if we were talking about a side project with no commercial intent. But this post is about an indie Saas founder...if a few hundred dollars a month is a barrier to success, then that's a pretty good sign your indie startup isn't starting up.

I find these threads endlessly amusing considering that, for hundreds of years, starting a business involved massive investments in real estate, physical equipment, etc. We're living the dream, yet somehow quibbling over spending $10/month on a piece of software. If it saves you just 2 hours, per year, then it's worth it.
It is quite different, and porting drivers from Linux would be very hard to do en masse. However, other open source kernels have drivers that are much easier to port. NetBSD, for example, has a whole host of drivers that can and are used almost unchanged in other microkernels.
I’ve always found this area of math a bit navel gazey but if you like it then you might like the book Surreal Numbers by Knuth
Did you go through the PR discussion though?

In this particular case there was technical discovery on a non-trivial approach to patch an npm package (which didn't work out)

But above aside, one can get a lot more milage out of GitStart if small fixes are bundled together. As that means all of them share the cost of QA (across devices), bundled code review and less context switch overhead.
Countries don't need wars to shoot people. You make laws and issue executive orders, and when they are violated, you send people to hit the violators with sticks until they comply, and if that doesn't work, to shoot them until they stop moving.

Any and all economic policy is ultimately backed by violence. That's what governments are for.

The word "will" isn't strictly future tense. It also conveys purpose or intent. e.g. "If you suggest a silly reading of a traffic sign, I will explain why you're being ridiculous."
Seems they're looking at the same areas across their analysis. That is, they always have signs. The question is whether the signs are specifically within the campaign period showing the crash number message.
> Can an AI physically go to the DMV and get a REAL-ID?

AI can just run the DMV and issue itself a REAL-ID.

Worldcoin doesn’t solve the problem, though, especially with Sam Altman involved.
