> with unpaid reviewers who have many other, more interesting things to do

It's kinda funny. A journal doesn't make the product it sells (the papers that it copywrites). It doesn't pay for the service it performs ("vetting" and editing). And both of these would be done regardless of their existence. I can understand distribution, but that hasn't been useful for over a decade now. What even do these things do anymore?

(btw, I've seen profs delegate to undergrads. And it is quite common for post-docs AND grad students to be reviewers. Trust me, I am one)
The idea of plausible is that you don't need a consent banner because it is privacy friendly.
They use GA because Plausible costs 9 Euros a month
Great list, but AWS bill will run pretty high when you'll finish your credits.
There have been companies working on this for decades and I'm yet to see one that works well. Earlier versions used mechanically inflatable and modifiable mannequins to capture clothes on a variety of bodies, modern ones try and do the same with digital simulations, but they all fall flat compared to the real thing. In addition, if you think getting a sign up popup is annoying when you want to use a web page, imagine a page asking you to scan your body, never mind the privacy concerns.
Yeah it's weird, very often a venue on a street is simply not visible unless zoomed in TO THE MAX. And then it's not any weird obscure thing, it's a restaurant or coffeeshop that's been there for years.
Did you do the scans yourself? (github profile and the kuula page both list Rotherdam as location). Did you use a special camera like an Insta360?
Consumer ultimately pays all costs.
There are workarounds for most restrictions like that, e.g. there is a shell company in New Caledonia that owns `rya.nc` on my behalf.
They must not be using Excel (and certain IDEs).
You can't transmit data through DisplayPort, so no.

The blog post I linked has a list of cables which you can plug into a DisplayPort host and a USB C monitor and it'll transmit the video data. Some might add power and even data from other USB source(s). But that doesn't make DP carry data, no.
I knew from the list that it will bring harsh criticism from HN crowd.
Ready an action could get really complicated from a design perspective, but I really miss the "dodge" action. It would've been easy to integrate and support offensive play. I use it in the tabletop often when I play tank characters to hold chokepoints. Interested in the reason why they don't have it, maybe some EA players involved in the feedback process know why?
I wrote a system that incorporates Google Maps.

It’s an open-source system that is used worldwide, by a few thousand loosely-organized nonprofits.

When Google Maps suddenly required associated credit cards, it caused a great deal of trouble. It still causes problems.

That’s because most of these entities are not 501(c)(3) orgs, with bank accounts and debit/credit cards. In fact, the organization enforces deliberate poverty, amongst its chapters.

Someone needs to add their personal card to the Google Maps API. Since the maintenance people are constantly rotating, this is an issue.

Also, the API has a dashboard like a Space Shuttle cockpit. Most regular schlubs have a difficult time with it.

>actually being a pleasant person.

That is actually a classic "nice guy" trope. Women want a guy who is confident in stating his attraction to them and who doesn't dwell too much before asking her out or after being rejected. Being "pleasant" only works if you naturally meet a lot of women and the woman asks you out. The reason for that is that platonic friendships physically take up time and limit the number of women you can meet. If you have five female friends, the likelyhood of one of them being attracted to you is practically zero, because the number is way too small. Nobody is going to have a hundred female friends so that one of them is going to ask you out. The economics of male dating just don't allow it to happen.

>Basically: your list entirely excludes the right of the other person to...be a person.

How exactly did you come up with this response? Honestly, it feels like you copy pasted it from somewhere else and are now responding out of context.

How does splitting the bill dehumanise "the other person"?
The search-along-route is more of a 'search-around-my-current position'. If you e.g. need fuel, it lists options for busy towns in the wrong direction rather than the easiest path along your current route. If you need a given RON or niche fuel, you just have to memorise which suppliers sell it & hope that it shows up in the list. The utopian vision that it could figure out the range of the car it's connected to and use this information to decide where would be most efficient to fill up is a pipe dream.

Using Maps while driving for anything other than A-B navigation is generally poor. It seems designed by people who are accustomed to every destination having plentiful dedicated parking. If you want to go to B, then find local parking, you need to invoke dark voodoo.

The worst part is that the Apple & Google duopoly in maps supported by Android Auto and Apple Carplay means there's no way for a superior alternative to succeed in the market. Google even contributed to this by buying Waze. So Maps only needs to be just good enough.
Both 1 and 2 versions are good enough in Russian even for some real use in production environments. But you should tolerate some crazy / weird typos and mis-wording they'll produce. Russian is complicated.
We should establish a base on 16 Psyche before we do anything else. This resource alone could propel us into the future as a species like no other project..

> There's also no consent banner, so this doesn't seem GDPR compliant

I'm not sure what you mean by "consent banner". If you're referring to an annoying "allow us to track everything you do" pop-up, that's probably because Plausible doesn't attempt to track everything you do.

They have plenty of privacy information on their site [1].

"It potentially allows things like one machine setting up file transfer between two servers. Not sure if this was done, but could be done."

Well I certainly recall doing it back in the 90s.

I vaguely recall it was sending PASV to one server, taking its response values, and providing them in a PORT command to the other server. Then sending the RETR and STOR commands respectively to the two servers.
Pretty cool. The actual sed file is surprisingly short https://github.com/chebykinn/sedmario/blob/master/mario.sed

Withought getting in the weeds this is generally the right approach. The most important thing is that devices should work without an internet connection.

According to the article the _alleged_ wafer price is rising dramatically, but they point out they have no way of confirming it. It could just aswell be a plan to hike prices together by announcing that your buddies are now paying more, even though their individual contract may not reflect it.

I wouldn't go as far as saying Nvidia is making less just because their net income is less, couldn't they still be huge but consumed by even greater investment into future?

> "how can I propose to reject? They are likely better than me"

Funny enough, I see exactly the opposite. I've seen this in both reviews I've done and reviews I've received. Just this week I reviewed and saw one of my fellow reviewers write in their justifications: I am not familiar with X, but I am skeptical that the method can scale to a more complex application. Their weaknesses section was extremely generic and it was very clear they didn't understand the work. They gave a weak reject. In fact, when I first started reviewing, I was explicitly told to _only_ accept if I was confident that the work was good. So in my experience, the bias goes the other way that you are proposing.

Btw, I've even seen undergrads acting as reviewers. I was asked to review in in my first year of grad school. I don't think I was qualified then, but I was always a junior reviewer rather than a full so idk.
Many cases the proprietary is just the closest FOSS lib with extra telemetry, data exfiltration, and other GDPR violations embedded.

CPU integrated GPU is what's killing the low end. You don't need any more than that for desktop/light gaming.

As in basically any web app development... mostly independently of the chosen implementation language. PHP hast lost its insecure beginnings (like injecting variables using GET arguments...) since long.

I could see a world where people turn to an LLM for a task where the hand-rolled solution could be a simple state machine or some nested switch statements.

The irony would be that the LLM could write you that code, but if you don’t know to ask…

I took a peek at the "Explorer" app code base. PHP + JS + jQuery, but surprisingly readable (but a lot of practices in there that are not exactly considered "best" today). Perhaps we have sunk too deep into the SPA/API rabbit hole that we can no longer appreciate simplicity.

> For those of us who are reactive to msg, the results can be absolutely debilitating. [...] Banning it would help millions of migraine sufferers and harm no consumer

Reaearch has consistently failed to verify the existence of MSG sensitivity; while it may exist in some small number of cases, its mostly a misattributed cause.

Also, its not true that it would have no consumer harm; its a lower-sodium palatability enhancer than table salt, and removing it from the set of options would have consumer harms.

> In fact, it could benefit the obesity epidemic by removing that overeating urge msg creates.

That's an effect of sugar, salt, and fat (separately, but even more in the right combination); MSG is mostly irrelevant to it (except that banning MSG probably means more salt.)
> In Mozilla's case, if it was a tax-exempt non-profit without a commercial sub-entity giving 100% of profits to its parent, it would not be able to take Google funding as a trade in exchange for making Google the default search engine without losing its tax-exempt status, and it might not be able to pay its software engineers a competitive market rate, even if it needs to do that to compete.

That doesn't sound like a bad thing. Googles funding is not a boon but a shackle that holds FF back. Same for developers that expect SV market rates - those will be developers that are used to user-hostile software developement practiced in other SV companies.

> It would be able to take donations (not as a trade in exchange for something, just as a donation), but that wouldn't be enough to develop a competitive browser.

How do you know? Individual donations are also far from the only possible way to fund a real charity.

Except that basically every velocar is vaporware atm.

Here in Germany regulations are unnecessarily complex and your best option is to get 10-20 year old Velomobiles that can legally be driven as S-Pedelecs (up to 45 km/h) because they were at some point certified for that speed.

But getting a new velomobile, that you can easily drive faster than 45 km/h by muscle power alone, certified to be powered electrically is apparently near impossible (i.e. not financially feasible).
Everything that runs inside this "desktop" environment is made for it. So it is definitely not competing with Citrix & co. which are made to run existing stuff under existing operating systems...

That would be awesome, but we've tried for decades and haven't gotten there with basic if/else. I do think it's pretty plausible that if you combine some very slimmed down models with strong heuristics you could get far though. At the moment I think expense doesn't really matter -- an hour of a knowledge worker's time is worth 416,000 tokens of GPT-4, the most expensive model out there. For llama-2 it's even less time. Unless you're processing truly epic numbers of tokens, by far the most important is whether we can use these things for real.
As far as research is concerned, the names you mentioned are not prestigious brands. Universities are organizations that provide facilities and services in exchange for their share of grant money. Publishers publish whatever people are willing to pay for. Prominent mentions of supposedly prestigious institutions are a red flag in science reporting. Very often, either the writer is trying to promote something, or they don't know what they are talking about.

There are two parallel academias. There is the reputable high-trust one, where it's easy to get away with fraud, because people generally don't commit it. And there is the scammy one that exists to help people to game the metrics. While the two overlap a bit, they are mostly disjoint.

If you are an academic, you get a steady stream of spam from the scammy side of the academia. You get calls to submit papers to a conference with "Proceedings by Springer" (but the scope of the conference is barely mentioned), you get invited to become an "ΕԀitоrial ΜҽmƄҽr" of a journal, and so on. Those are like Nigerian letters. They make it very explicit that they are scams, in order to avoid wasting people's time.

You guessed that nobody reads the journal you mentioned, and that's trivially true. Of course nobody reads journals, because their scopes are too wide. No matter what you are working on, most articles in the journals you publish in are irrelevant to you. People read only articles that look interesting or relevant. If nobody cares about an article, it doesn't get read.

While the rest of the world is based on top-down hierarchies, that's not a good model for understanding research. In general, the higher up in the hierarchy you go, the less relevant things become. The article is more relevant than the journal, and the journal is more relevant than the publisher. A rank-and-file professor is more relevant than a department chair. A department chair is more relevant than a dean. And a dean is more relevant than a chancellor/president/whatever.
Ready an action is only usable in combat, so RAW outside of combat readying actions to jump on people you lured with an illusion into a room is not possible. This is an ambush and would be dealt with stealth / surprise rules and THAT is in the game, so it is possible if you play it by the rules.

The ready action is designed to get used for delaying actions to bypass initiative order.
Try to use less cores. RAM bandwidth is real limiting factor there, so there always some sweet spot between CPU cores and RAM bandwidth for individual system.

For example, I use only 6 cores from 10 on my M1 Pro laptop.

There's no such thing as hard to find. Only "I don't want to pay what they ask". Which is weird for a hardware company since you don't need that many and you only write the driver once, but you sell it with millions of devices.
It's deeply concerning that the only alternative to Google Maps being terrible is to use Google's Waze. The only thing stopping another Inbox situation is the threat of anti-competition law.
As a counter argument, here in Sweden I've yet to run into a place where Google maps has failed me when it comes to driving, public transport or address/POI search. OSM on the other hand is missing half the buildings once you get more then 15 km out from major city centers and even in major cities, things like house numbers and addresses is often wrong. The only scenario OSM is better than Google Maps is pedestrian and hiking routes.
That doesn't make sense here. Mainland China and Taiwan economies are already extremely integrated and most of the richest Taiwanese are actually fairly close to the CCP. That's my grip with the coverage of the situation in the US. Most American don't understand the current situation very well and imagine that Taiwan is a lot more segregated from China that it actually is.

Plus, a significant minority of Taiwanese are actually favorable to China (around 10% of the population). China doesn't want to loot Taiwan. They want control of the island. I still agree with you that it probably wouldn't go well for part of the population as illustrated by the current situation in Hong Kong.

In the app, you also can't adjust your departure time to see if there's a better time to leave. You have to use the web UI which doesn't have a way to share this information (beyond a starting point and finishing point) with the app.

Show HN: LingoCoach – Practice Conversation with an AI Language Tutor
Hey all,

I wanted to share a project I've been quietly working on: Lingocoach.

I did notice a few similar projects popping up lately, but hopefully I was able to deliver a better experience and capabilities.

LingoCoach allows you to have voice conversations with different AI language tutors in 11 different languages.

Any feedback or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Let me know what you think!
Silly me... I forgot this is Google we're talking about. Thanks.

That's the usual naggers club you can meet all over the web today. And it's getting worse, not better. What these people say is an end in itself to make themselves important and does not help the matter. It undoubtedly has something to do with anonymity. Most people on these forums are anonymous, also the quoted people are obvious fantasy pseudonyms. Downvoting is even more anonymous; there is usually no record from who the downvotes come. If you're interested in the effects of anonymity to people, watch this part of Zimbardo's very interesting lecture: https://youtu.be/OsFEV35tWsg?t=959. The anonymity of the web, or the masses, gives these people a power that obviously overwhelms them. There were experiments which demonstrated how it can play out when ordinary people suddenly gain power (see e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanford_prison_experiment).
Yup. And to be honest there’s a bunch of additional complexity in Clojure transducers that I very much dislike (all the reducing function stuff which is almost never actually used and which is secondary to the purpose of creating a sequence transform via function composition). But it’s a tradeoff you make for additional functionality or speed. Or you move complexity to reduce cognitive overhead for certain use cases. There’s rarely a free lunch.
I'm confused. Do you mean what particular organization algorithm would I use to organize unorganizable data? Not just the type of visualization it would use (ie, 2d list vs 3d spatial)?

Oh, I know — I was trying to throw some shade on the state of JS frameworks rather than LLMs. With the pendulum now swinging back to vanilla DOM manipulation, it feels like the enormous effort spent on devising ways to wrap web UIs in endless variations of abstractions might have been somewhat of a waste.

This critique is mostly about the semantics. And I agree. For me it's mainly that things happening out of order introduces surprises for reasoning in the normal edit-debug cycle if you've forgotten to use the *v versions of functions. As for performance optimizations, there are some, such as chunking and locals clearing mentioned in the article.
I strongly recommend MAPS.ME as a great alternative to Google Maps. It comes with offline navigation and it's less cluttered than Gmaps. not sure if it's built around Gmaps API, I don't know much about that but it's nice to use.

I would have said d. XXX. My reasoning being that in sets 1 and 2, the third tile has an X in every space where the first or second tile has an X.

Anyway, it seems to me that you are holding AI to a higher standard than humans.

Abstract reasoning abilities do not imply the ability to solve every abstract reasoning problem. Even humans cannot do that. If there is even a single abstract reasoning problem ChatGPT can solve, that means it has abstract reasoning abilities.

Similarly, general intelligence does not imply the ability to solve any problem. It means problem-solving abilities that are not restricted to a specific task or domain. ChatGPT has general intelligence because it can handle situations that it was not explicitly programmed to handle in a wide variety of contexts.

Btw, when we talk of "functions" we mean a mapping between elements of two or more sets. A "system" is not a function. I don't know a formal definition of a system, but if you're talking about whatever the human brain is doing that's likely to be more easily modelled as a Turing machine.

And a Turing machine is not, in itself, a function. It is a computational device that can calculate the result of some set of calculable functions. You can model a Turing machine as a function, e.g. by mapping some set of programs to the set of inputs and outputs of those programs, or something scary like that, but once again this mapping will tell you nothing about the internal operation of any specific Turing machine.

If, by any chance, you think of the brain as a universal Turing machine (UTM), then I'd really like to see the function you come up with to represent its behaviour; and let's see how much this function tells you about the internal structure of the brain-UTM.
I can't recommend MAPS.ME enough. It's an iOS app based on OpenStreetMap. The amount of details is overwhelming, compared to Google Maps or Apple Maps.
