If by "highly standardized" you mean "you don't get a choice in what you can do or how it works", I agree.

Native mobile apps thrive despite this magical web browser working everywhere, because the web browser simply doesn't do what native apps do. You may enjoy that, but a million businesses and billions of users out there don't agree, because they use native apps. There were 255 billion native mobile app downloads in 2022, generating billions in revenue. That's not a mistake or accident; that's a market filling a need.

If we really want an application platform that works everywhere, then let's stop dicking around with these stupid document hypertext viewers and build a real app platform that works everywhere.
Easy to say don't use Chrome, harder to say don't use Cloudfare.

And if we're taking things to task for monopolizing a market and being a threat to the future of the open internet, I'd say Cloudfare is and will always be a bigger threat.

The moment the Cloudfare dictatorship becomes less benevolent, everyone is gonna feel it.
Fun story for the HN crowd: The research vessel Falkor (too), named after the luckdragon from the Neverending Story, was paid for by Eric and Wendy Schmidt, ex-Google CEO.
Lots of philanthropic funding in marine research vessels: another deep sea research vessel, DSSV Pressure Drop, was sold to Inkfish, which is owned by Gabe Newell of Valve/Steam-fame.

This is an interesting point. And perhaps worse yet, high quality doctors will have the freedom to move out of your state.

I'm an American living and Germany and sadly, my GP who is also a personal friend of mine, will be shutting down their practice at the end of the year because their small practice simply isn't financially sustainable. They will instead start treating the prison population, which apparently pays more / is more consistent.

So I can also imagine how doctors in your state would feel if suddenly their rates are dramatically capped by the state.

I'm not aware of any public health care systems where medical care services are as expensive as in the United States, but perhaps it's possible to maintain relatively similar doctor pay as currently exists AND provide socialized health care benefits. I really don't know enough about this topic and the financials of American (non-public) health insurance companies to comment accurately on whether that would be feasible.
This. Downfall affects CPUs released almost a decade ago. The argument of 'Intel caught a ton of these and downfall is the one that got away' doesn't add up. Surely Intel would find at least one issue during development of a new chip that has the property that it _also_ affects older chips. They can hardware-fix it before ever releasing their new chip, but unless they just decided to ignore the vulnerability in their older chips, they'd have starte work on a patch or at least on contacting OS vendors.

None of which is easy to do without the public at large figuring out what happend.

Conclusion: That is highly unlikely to have ever happened. Therefore, this isn't survivor bias and it really is bizarre that chip vendors (or, at least, Intel) doesn't look for this stuff or at least didn't find this.
What do you think is the future beyond interpolated key frames?
Oh absolutely. It sounds disingenuous from them to say they only store hash and also push to store the actual full capture.
Ask HN: Advice for a solo SaaS founder dealing with a customer?
I am a solo founder/developer of a SaaS product. I have many customers (enterprise, small, medium, etc). I have never had this issue before now...

I have a customer that agreed to pay in N-days which is common for enterprise sales. However, this customer used our subscription/plan and refuses to pay (ghosting me at this point).

I believe the next step is writing a demand letter before officially bringing this to court. Does anyone have advice for a situation like this?

I have spoken to lawyers and they don't want to help (not quite enough cash for them to care, but a bit too much for small claims court as well...).
I don't know if it's just me, but my thumb does not do fine control that well, and feels quite stiff doing it. It's great for gripping (obviously) and for 'thumping' a spacebar or whatever, but it seems unnatural if I try to drive my trackpad with my thumb, for example.

I see the point about wrist movement though, even on a trackpad there's a lot of lateral wrist movement.

One package management feature that not even the really good languages seem to have is synchronizing dependency versions across multiple packages, usually in the context of a monorepo.

Like if my codebase has webapp A, library A and library B rather than separately defining that they all use third party library foo v3.1.4, it would be really nice to have a single source of truth.
This is a religious belief, not an observation. Discounting all allegations of shenanigans, 45% of the Democratic Party primary voters supported him in 2016, and probably around or not much less than that in 2020. The man consistently polls as extremely popular (although that popularity took a hit after 2020), and is as old as dirt, along with a huge number of his voters.

Your views of the situation disregard your observations about the situation, if you're at any way aware of the data about Sanders' popularity over the last 10 years, the popularity of his policies, the fact that he was nearly President in 2016, and the fact that instead of him, a bunch of over-35s elected a wrestler game show host, it's nuts to still pretend that people generally mature into middle-of-the-road conservatism.
Finally.

Now I just hope they don't institute some dumb program where it only talks to Apple devices or some crap.

[Not same poster] I've dodged it so far, but I have no illusions that I'm anything beyond lucky. Such questions should really be phrased in terms of statistics.

Confirmed cases cover about ~10% of the global population [0], and it's reasonable to expect the true number is much higher, like ~44% a year ago. [1]

A personal anecdote. I run a (locally) popular online forum and many years ago I was approached by a company that bought a single-word domain name directly related to their core business. Our agreement was that I would use their API to load job listings in a dedicated sub-forum - our site is known around here for supporting the tech community when possible, so I didn't even charge for that.

So far, so good. One day, someone from this person's company registered on our site and posted a couple of spam messages full of keywords and links to this company's domain. Checking the user account, it did have that company's domain email (we validate registration emails), but the IP address was from a country very far away from here. The post was removed, and the account was banned per our rules.

I contacted the General Manager (GM) for that company and sure enough, there was an explanation: they had engaged a local SEO agency, and this agency outsourced some of the SEO work. Unknown to the GM the sub-contractor's link-building approach was "go around spamming comments and forums".

I told the GM that this was an unacceptable practice and that he was wasting money with that agency. Even more so because his domain name was so clear and related to their business that I considered that a waste of money.

His company didn't last long. The SEO agency is still around.
And, through the magic of cloud computing, they can multiply 72 by an arbitrarily large number without increasing their cost per captcha.

I get the impression this is mostly only useful against ddos attacks. They do start ramping up pow cost at 5000 requests per second.
This would definitely make some of our lives easier. Can I know the LLMs you referred to, did you use a pre-existing model or did you create your own?
How do you suppose we do this? It makes decisions based on numbers alone ?

Personally, I don't think there is a right decision, it was just a decision which had an outcome, for some people it was ab absolutely fucking devastating decision.

This is where I think we have blind spots when developing these systems, I don't think there is a "right" or best answer here. Just some answer.
> 1) If his models could predict useful room temperature superconductors, it seems we would have found one already.

How do you arrive at this?
All clients follow the rules if you enforce them. Break rate limit and get a timeout. Settle your payment before you send the product using bitcoin instead of Visa which is not able to do this.
They run on some really nasty shit too.
As discussed elsethread, it used the lower bits of the time value, so while there is is a fraction of the 2^32 space due to precision loss in the OS time calculations, it is not as simple as "between when this software was released and now, in seconds".
I don't recall Kubernetes ever allowing unauthenticated access to the api. I could be wrong tho since I never considered trying to run it sans auth.
Some do, maybe more with SRE title's. Better to put that in ajob description and filter for those with development backgrounds.
National security: very real.
Fixing Vulnerabilities with Speed
It's only true for integration, and not even all of it. Differentiation can be done mechanically, and killer app of calculus (finding maximum) only requires differentiation.
Client side captchas are obfuscated code, so the bar of “the user can debug the problem and fix it themselves” is pretty high.

Also, reCaptcha definitely engages in both hell-banning and allows incorrect answers to pass the test. I assume the logic for those things is mostly server side.
Postpartum depression is not a societal illness, it's a medical problem.

This comment is no different than telling a depressed person "you have no reason to be depressed, so cheer up". Plenty of women with strong support networks get postpartum depression.

I have to believe you're attempting (but failing) to gaslight me

you wrote: "it does seem to indicate that IPv6 is mostly pointless for human users for exactly this reason" (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37050359)

Feel free to continue to deny what you wrote, how he responded, and me repeatedly showing you where quotes your words if you want - no one stop you from ignoring your own words (eventhough they're right there on display for all) ...but he used your own words in response to your own comment :)
Do you have a source for this? I got the impression at the time that there was some commissioning of his services, but that they didn't like the report. But he publishes work, and released the report, which forced them to deal with it.

Every distributed tech fails when he test it, but the tenor and nature of the report for MongoDB was different. It basically said between the lines "do not use this product".

MongoDB has a history of really crappy persistence decisions and silently failed writes, and as soon as it gets publicized saying "we fixed it in the next release". The same thing happened here of course. I simply don't trust the software or the company.

Mysql has the same annoying pattern in its history, although I have more confidence in the software because of the sheer number of users.

Still, I would probably pick PostgreSQL for both relation and document stores.
That's not what they're saying at all.

That's exactly what they are saying. "If these women just had more support they wouldn't be depressed".

That's not how postpartum depression works at all.

Looking forward to seeing more.
Worse. 6 years, projecting even more pain, remorse, and hate amongst the developer populace.
If you think this is a risk, have a plan for it, and not just for her. For you as well. The knock on effects of trying to do everything for the newborn, manage your partner’s symptoms and help in their treatment, and try to sleep while furiously doing laundry, cooking, scrubbing bottles, etc… you need support. You need people staying with you 24/7, people that aren’t on some vacation with a couple photo ops with the new baby.

I’m in a week between family staying with me right now and I had to pull from savings to get a night nanny every other night to even have a chance for sleep.

Make a plan for help, don’t be afraid to cash in on help you’ve given your friends and family, and get treatment early.

edit: I’m a US Marine. I’m not scared of sleep deprivation, hard work, or suffering. How single moms do this without PPD, let alone with, while holding a job is something I can’t fathom. I thought I was tough. Incorrect.
Didn't the no surprises act change that for emergency issues? The insurer has to cover it as in plan.
I tend to agree with the sentiment here, but reading the output made me think of disorders like schizophrenia, which is to say sometimes humans enter this mode too.
Reading the fine details this comes across as a vindication of agressive social distancing, mask wearing, and vaccination in a single small relatively well funded US state that played things "as safe as reasonably possible" from the get go.

Two comparison periods:

Masking was required in classrooms during both periods; In both periods, available vaccines had high effectiveness in preventing transmission of circulating variants.

During F20/S21, mask use of both the index case and contact was associated with lower odds of school-associated transmission relative to mask nonuse. With both individuals masked, there was an 88% decrease in relative odds of in-school transmission.

During F21, classroom exposure and vaccination of the contact were associated with transmission. A fully vaccinated contact had a 96% decrease in relative odds of in-school transmission.

Studies have shown that schools with mask policies had fewer cases of SARS-CoV-2 during the 2020-2021 school year,

Interestingly, in F21, despite a more transmissible variant (Delta) and greater classroom density, mask use was no longer found to be associated with reduced transmission; instead, vaccination of the in-school contact was the most protective factor.

The big take home was that (surprise, surprise) well funded communities saw lower infection rates than disadvantaged communities.

this study is the first to our knowledge to show that students and staff exposed to SARS-CoV-2 at school were more likely to become infected if they lived in districts with greater social vulnerability, even when vaccination status, distance, and other factors of transmission risk were considered.

Schools with more resources may have had more ability to implement ventilatory improvements, a factor known to reduce transmission in schools.
Huh? They are not running on top of Raw ARM CPU but CUDA on Nvidia GPU. It makes little to no difference in what CPU they are using.
Back when I had some old rack mount servers (Ivy Bridge Xeons) I would disable the mitigations where possible/not update microcode/BIOS. The attack vectors being somewhat niche and me being the only user means the trade off for performance wasn’t worth it. I think it’s a fallacy to assume known vulnerabilities MUST be patched… but alas if that’s not an option for whatever reason, I hope the plan is to move to AMD eventually. They have occasional vulnerabilities too, but so far nothing as detrimental to performance as Spectre or I assume Downfall.
In my experience creating packages for an operating system package manager or Docker images, a DevOps or sysadmin mindset is more beneficial than a developer mindset. For those packages, the goal is to follow operating system or deployment best practices.

I’ve not created a Python or Rust package or something like that. If you’re creating that type of package, my guess is that it may help a lot to hire a developer who loves to think about the most “idiomatic” way to package your code.

Edit: if your package will be published and used by customers, then you might look for DevRel skill as a bonus.
Possibly. When I worked at a place that designed a "simple" chip that was just a more energy efficient and very parallel version of its FPGA, the fab that was contracted to make it insisted on validating it themselves. It consisted primarily of a lot of copy-paste of the primary logic to build as many paths as would fit on the die. They described it as "unusually dense" and, I heard they later said that they'd never seen a design that dense. The validation process was partly described as people manually driving a car through a 3D model, making sure there were no unexpected junctions or other divergences. This process took months longer than their initial estimate, allegedly due to the density.

I guess you could say this was "under the umbrella of the chip-maker", though we had little say in it aside from pressing them for progress as our final product's shipdates came and left. When we finally got the first samples, power consumption was, I think, an order of magnitude higher than expected. Our lead engineer struggled to get it down without going to a smaller process that we could barely afford (and given the delays already, could probably not have afforded to wait for). We thus thought we had working logic, but our case designs were scuttled. After enlarging the cases to accommodate extra cooling, our base unit was more than ten times taller, and our next size up, while the same height, was three times longer. Highest units had a water cooling system[1].

Our QA was able to find other sorts of flaws, like misprinted unpopulated circuit boards, software faults on the host, or when we received shoddy interlink cables that either melted under test[2] or other cables that scrambled communications[3].

All of which is to say, that many other pressing issues can interfere with doing what you feel you ought to be doing. At least at our scale. I can't speak for the likes of big guys like Intel or AMD, but it's possible that unfound faults or known unpatched flaws can ship because resources were committed elsewhere or fabrication leadtimes preclude waiting. This is not to say that shipping a security flaw is okay, but rather that sometimes you think you've done you're due diligence, or sometimes your choices seem to be "Ship, ship late, or never ship.". The answer you pick can be existential, so you hope you've picked the least bad option.

[1] Misbegotten, because "beauty of the promo images".

[2] Conductors much thinner than spec, not initially observed because both ends were fitted with moulded plugs.

[3] Longer than spec, initially recieved with enthusiasm by assembly staff, before an engineer investigating a difficulty saw them and exclaimed, "No-no-no! That's longer than I am tall! Stray capacitance alone will kill the communication.". (He uncharacteristic'ly exagerated here. While they were three times longer than expected, this was at most .40 times his height.)
GERD is shit, and can emerge for lots of reasons. Mine came from my hypertension meds and then uplift to nexium to deal with that. My partner's comes from a herniated oesophagus which required keyhole surgery.

I'm not saying it wasn't the vaccine, I am saying its got a mixture of root causes and you might want to not discount them

Also: Get this treated. Constant reflux can trigger Barrat's disease which requires surgery, its potentially cancerous.
It wouldn't be that hard to make free open-source software not subject to the same rules.
I have to disagree with the word "accidentally" in the title. No single person involved in this with half a wit didn't, or wouldn't, picture a spray of material resulting from the impact. Any suggestion otherwise is just absolutely ridiculous.
Its cause "Hello world!" is multiple tokens and "A " would be one token. Its probably just hitting the repeat penalty for the same token making it unable to continue the sequence.

If its has nothing to go off yet it has to say something, I suppose it would just regurgitate its training data. Similar to the situation with the reddit usernames.
Nice project idea. The Nordic chip in the Pinetime might be more efficient than this ESP-32 though, and there's been a lot of development effort into infinitive for it.
The FDA evaluated evidence that the same drug would help treat major depressive disorder and found it lacking;

https://www.fiercepharma.com/pharma/sage-biogens-postpartum-...

> Alongside Friday’s approval, the partners also received a rejection for Zurzuvae in adults with major depressive disorder (MDD). The FDA told the partners their application didn’t provide “substantial evidence of effectiveness” and that additional studies would be needed. Sage and Biogen said they are reviewing possible next steps.
The question is a bit short, so I'm inclined to say: no, the things they solve is only mildly related. But maybe you have a specific thing in mind that Docker solves, so feel free to share what you think so someone or me can say something more useful about this!
I admit I only skimmed the article, but it looks like the only implicit operators discussed are implicit conversions.

There are plenty of implicit conversions in most languages. The C# feature being discussed is the ability to define your own implicit conversions.

I was expecting something like the "x y" or "xy" mathematical notation that means "x*y" (or x×y if you prefer).

I know it's not ideal, but I am really rooting for Intel's effort for graphics. From launch nearly a year ago to today, the driver team has been knocking out driver issues and slowly but surely trying to achieve parity with AMD and Nvidia. From what I hear, the team really going for broke on trying to get ML workloads fully supported. When Intel shipped a 16GB card at that price point, you knew that they were really trying, it would be cool if Battlemage (the next gen.) shipped with 32GB for larger models.
