This is one game where MAD is the winning move to play. I'd like for Meta et al to block Canadian news. I'd also like for Canadian news to block Meta et al. Their endless funnels of garbage that predominantly serve to rile people up are something we could all do with less of. And that goes from both sides.
> Ask for more information.

very often this is part of the solution, asking for info isnt deflection in most cases. Usually the worst bugs are a result of some unknown unknown or excessive complexity in code. Discussion is often the best way out imo

Yeah apologies we're in a little bubble here together with Spacelift, Scale, Env0 and Atlantis so starting to assume everyone knows the niche terminology lol

Yeah so basically TACOS are ci-like tools / control planes for Terraform. The OG one being Terraform Cloud.

The term TACOS was coined by Piotr Zaniewski here: https://itnext.io/spice-up-your-infrastructure-as-code-with-...
> A community. And the friends that come with it.

You make it sound like a therapist doesn't do any work, they just get paid to sit there and socialize. There's a huge amount of emotional labor for therapists, like building trust with people whose stories they can't naturally empathize with. A lot of people need someone to just unload on (which, incidentally, is part of trauma recovery). If you do that to your friends, time after time, you lose your friends pretty quickly. That's (among other reasons) why therapists deserve to be paid for their work.

You're right that a community and friends (really, social connections) are key to good long-term mental health. But a lot of people get into a place where they no longer have that, or the community and friends they have are detrimental to their mental health (consider: LGBT people in ultra-conservative religious communities). No therapist can replace a community and friends, but they can be that "I'm not going to give up on you" (because payment) level of "friend" (airquotes because payment) to help you find those social connections.
pytype works by symbolic execution of compiled python bytecode, and the bytecode changed a fair bit between 3.10 and 3.11. we essentially have to implement some of the new features of the cpython interpreter first to simply execute 3.11 code, after which we need to handle new typing features. (we have to do this for every new version, but usually the bytecode doesn't change as much, it's typically new python features like pattern matching, and new typing features like variadic generics, that take time to implement in pytype)
To know if fish is meat we first need to know what is defined as meat.

For some it's simply the flesh of animal, for others it's only the flesh of mammals.
MIT, BSD, and GPL are all on both OSI’s list of Open Source licenses and the FSF’s list of Free Software licenses.

Yes, the FSF has a general preference that people use copyleft licenses like the GPL, but they recognize that permissive licenses meet the Free Software Definition.
> There is plenty of evidence that we have built our cities (and especially suburbs) to be socially atomizing, our culture has shifted toward extreme individualism (which, unsurprisingly, atomizes), our media is now hyper-personalized

...and all these things happened because of profit motives.
The ideas of dark matter and dark energy seems obviously made-up. If a junior dev came to you with that sort of theory for a weird effect they encountered in a system, you'd tell them to look harder instead of making up new fundamental interactions.

They may turn out to be right, but you have to admit they sound arbitrarily made-up for lack of a better understanding.
The issue isn't just the immediate area in front of firehouses or mapping them (the data is publicly available). One issue is routing quality degradation when you close off smaller streets, particularly for the lower speed cruise vehicles that can't use higher speed thoroughfares. Permanently closing 50 low speed streets would probably have a significant impact on their already questionable routing. A second issue is that there have also been incidents near active emergency scenes, which are not publicly available data.
> It is hypothesized that two massive R-Process events occurred in mid-air over
the Northern Plains of Mars. The R-Process is inferred to occur in astrophysical
events, but has been seen on Earth in thermonuclear explosions [10]. In a planetary environment a large R-process event above the planetary surface would
create powerful Tunguska-like explosions. Given the nitrogen and carbon dioxide components in the Mars atmosphere such fireballs would be expected generate large amounts of nitric acid. These hypothetical R-Process events caused
the 129Xe/132Xe and 40Ar/36Ar excesses and occurred during the epoch of warm dense atmosphere on Mars, and terminated that epoch.

This feels like calling someone a "moron" and then when they get offended saying "You shouldn't be offended, literally everyone is a moron because nobody is competent in everything".

What is the gain exactly in using language (like "embarrassing") that discourages mistakes and makes people feel worse about being wrong (even if they technically shouldn't). Plenty of better words exist.

Side note, I would definitely feel embarrassed if someone publicly called my code "embarrassing". Even if I shouldn't.
Ask HN: Who are my early adopters?
I'm working on an AI solution to summarize sales calls and create a follow-up email based on the call.

For which industry do you think this problem is most relevant? Who might be the best early adopter for this technology?
The point is judges should be in the habit of weighing perspectives and using nuance to reach a ruling instead of sticking to preconceived notions without bothering with the facts. Whether you think that's a fair criticism is another thing.
From the intro, explaining various puzzles that have come to light about Mars:

"It is the aim of this article to explain these salient puzzles with a new hypothesis: that Mars was the site of massive thermonuclear explosions, of unknown cause, in the recent geologic past. "
“The window can’t move”

I’d kill for your confidence
GPL gets hate because it’s a self-killing license. Sure, it’s great idealism, but it just creates an incentive for any corporate interests to create either a closed source offering or a better funded competing OSS offering that can be commercialized.

If some software provides value, it will eventually be monetized in some form. It makes no sense for a corporation, whose entire existence is predicated on monetization, to see GPL software and say “I guess I’ll just stop charging for our products!” Instead, the completely predictable response is “this is valuable, but I can’t use it, so I’m going to make something like it that I can actually use”.

Like it or not, you cannot “hide” value from capitalism. The machine will find and extract value wherever it can. GPL establishes unrealistic ideals for software that are inconsistent with the reality of how and where it is used.
> After all, if you think about it, all operations are branches

Isn't this definition the crux of it? If you redefine everything as a Branch™, even things that are not branches, then you can definitely precompute some Branch™es.

But the sort of non-Branch™ branch elimination is talking about actually branching computation routes in code due to an if/else statement or similar, is it not?

That would still be useful to do in your world of Branch™es, just only the Branch™es that try and compute the results of more than one future at the same time (i.e. branches).
One car per green: Why the lights on freeway onramps can’t end traffic jams
Canada is easier to understand when you realize that there is a strong current of oligopoly behind many of its large businesses, including the news.

A few out-of-touch boomer billionaire families who have the governance-as-a-service support package can put their thumb on the scale to create "consensus" around nonsense like this.

I hope Meta and Google never restores these news outlets. My feed has gotten significantly better already.
Russia shoots for the moon as space race against US heats up
Yes, but it does not necessarily have those two connotations in other languages (which is the issue here).

In Portuguese, if you want to say "fresh water" (as in, "low-salinity water"), you use the term "sweet water", rather than "fresh water" ("fresh water" can only be interpreted either as "cold water" or "non-stale water", but never as "low-salinity water").
ML is useful for many things, but not for predicting scientific replicability
This is a solved problem. The left lane is the passing lane, the right lane is the cruising lane. If you're not passing, you should be in the right lane. Highway traffic organizes itself if you do this.

US highways (and driving in general) will always be fucked as long as the only requirement for a driver's license is a pulse, and you never get ticketed for ignoring the rules of the road. Your average American driver is lazy, stupid, combative, uneducated, clumsy, or some combination of them, and they will never be inconvenienced by the behavior enough to change it.

The only way to fix this is to enforce the rules that already exist, which will never be done.
Mobile Firefox already had shit marketshare when they did the refresh and limited extensions. That wasn't what caused the shit marketshare.
Definitely engineering. It’s not entirely wrong to say that the two reasons it took us until 2022 to make a ChatGPT are 1) the computing power needed and 2) the size of the training corpus needed. The same goes for other generative AI – it took a corpus of a couple billion images to train a Stable Diffusion model.
Good writers simplify. Because the reader will be lost if they don't.
The entire 'rhetoric' you are dismissing by illogically implying bad motivations is crticising the US Supreme Court for being undemocratic. As someone who is not American, a court with judges, appointed by an undemocratic, lost-by-popular-vote twice-impeached former president, making rulings that are at odds with many polls out there, including a ruling that reverses protections from sexist laws, is incredibly undemocractic.

I honestly have no words for anyone looking at these facts and still think there need not change in the very flawed democracy of the USA.

Nice! Any plans for Japanese?
The best I can tell, meta is deliberately overapplying the law in an attempt to rally public sentiment against a law they don't like.

An example of this is where meta has basically "regionally suspended" some news accounts. Some Canadians (a/b testing) going to Instagram pages owned by a News Orgs see "sorry, blocked, bitch at the government." But the law doesn't say news orgs can't use social media unless Meta pays them.

It's not the first time Canada has seen this sort of bad behaviour from entitled companies. I've seen literally this overapplication strategy in other instances.

Perhaps the law should be tweaked. Perhaps it should not be. But this actively damages my view of Meta. maybe the fact they hate this so much is an indication the government is doing something right.

Maybe Canadians will be inspired to get their own news instead of consuming whatever viewpoint Meta deems acceptable (and yes I think actual domestic journalism is a better source than Meta).

Yeah that embed portion, I use terraform in a tool I maintain to make it easier to manage kubernetes deployments and with that embed clause that makes terraform DoA for me.

Alphabet doesn't generate revenue from Go.

Following your example, Alphabet should open source all the weights they use in their current search algorithm as well as the algorithm itself.

And extending that principle, they should also open source the machine translation model and weights Robert DeNero made for them when at Google Translate.

Both of these are dumb hypotheticals but serve to point out the fact that there are loss leaders and revenue generators at each company.
Pescatarians don't consider themselves vegetarians, though. They eat primarily vegetarian, and just limit their meat to only seafood.

I just don't see how the "is fish meat" question is even a little nebulous, at least in my culture. All but a very tiny percentage of people here, including pescatarians, say it is.

But I'm only talking about the culture I'm a part of. I'm not saying that others thing differently. My only point was that, around my neck of the woods, society does not tend to consider fish as not-meat.
That's ridiculous. Chicken are not mammals and yet everyone except trolls will say that chicken flesh is meat.
it's weird that this isn't the case for the Steam version... base1 doesn't hit the same without Operation Overlord.
Seconded that the main reason was probably avoiding a mod. But it's not because of the compiler, but the processor. Mod and division instructions are always more expensive than additions and multiplications. If this function was on the hot path (and looking at where it's called, it's at least called once per frame), that may have mattered a lot.
As many organizations considers that AGPL may affect anything connected to it by the network and have carpet ban for applications licensed under AGPL, it would kill the project.
therapists IMO is a paid "listening as a service". but many therapists won't have the necessary life similarity overlap to truly listen.

this is esp true for individuals who end up needing therapy b/c they think in ways that are not aligned with society.

so most therapists teach coping mechanisms to fit in more w/ society so that it becomes a source of support vs judgement. it's a nice and controlled "lobotomy" of the parts that "should" be excised.

vs the "integrate the shadow/subconscious" stance which believes that these parts cannot truly be excised and instead are suppressed instead of integrated.
> the winner they selected in a "responsible AI challenge" competition

How is hosting "responsible AI" competitions not something they're doing? Sounds like a huge waste and a distraction from what should be their core mission of protecting the web by making the best browser they possibly can. If they want to dip their toes into the AI space to stay trendy and relevant, they could at least do it in a way that constructively relates to creating a web browser. Their local translation extension is a good example of this, they did a great job with it. They could do more, like maybe experiment with AI-guided adblocking or something. But a competition to create responsible chatbots? How is that relevant to Firefox? Besides the winner of the competition being stupid, the whole competition was stupid. What did they even hope to accomplish with such a competition, to sway the development of commercial chatbots from the likes of OpenAI or Facebook? They gave out $100k to the top 3 winners and not one of them has anything to do with making a better browser. If I'm wrong, then please explain how any of this relates to making Firefox better. Don't copy-paste their vapid corporate rambling explanation to me, if you can't explain it in plain normal english then it's bullshit.
Adding, physical theories are predictive. The theory is constructed first and is more constrained than what it aims to predict. It’s not machine learning where you learn a model from data, we build the model and then verify its predictions.

We is used colloquially. I am not a physicist. I am a mathematician working as an SDE.
Why don’t you buy a business with ~100-150k ARR for a 2-3x multiple and grow it. That would save you the first (and hardest) part of finding at least some sort of product-market fit. There are places where people talk about their businesses like indiehackers, also HN has a regular thread.
Ollama does work on Linux, it's just that we haven't (yet) made it work with GPUs other than Metal. We'll get there soon, but we're a small team and wanted to make sure everything was working well before adding more platforms.

You can build it yourself with `go build .` if you've cloned the repository.
So far, I've used two good strategies:

- Spray PC into as many registers as possible, try to add those registers together as many times as possible, and store the sum at zero (or wherever the score ends up)

- Load an assembled instruction from an old value of PC as an int into a register, then do some subtraction to make it non-negative (since it's usually negative in my experience), then store in the score location

I'm curious what other strategies people have tried?
You're being downloaded because "boy" is diminutive in this context. Like real men can't wear small watches. Which is, of course, unnecessary cock sizing.
> They required every contributor to Terraform to sign a CLA that allowed this. Being legal does not make the move ethical or consistent with the ideals of open source software.

No, it was MPL-2.0, which is permissive, so anyone including HashiCorp can start a BSL, or all right reserved, or whatever fork. Nothing to do with CLA. Doing whatever they want with it is entirely consistent with the ideals of a permissive license. If you don’t want people to do whatever they want with your code contributions, don’t contribute to a permissive project.
I’m not sure if we are talking about PiHole here, but I just log into the web interface and whitelist or temporarily disable blocking. Not as trivial as a browser extension, but still quite easy and fast.
Meta should just block canada altogether. Nobody would notice or care.
Haha what? Since when does Safari not offer add-ons?
It's probably running several aggregated 60GHz links, or it's own private 5G millimeter wave deployment.
This one does. You can comment on any line in any file.
The difference is that a good SSD has a far lower AFR than a good hard drive, at least if Puget systems and backblaze are to be believed.
I lack data, so I cannot say anything broadly. But in the devs that I know, this is 100% a generational thing. It may be different in different circles.
Copyleft license that infects dependent or operational software
Candid Public License (CPL) is a modified version of the GNU Affero General Public License v3.0 (AGPL). It's intent is to encourage organizations to open source software that depends on or operates work covered by the CPL, or negotiate a separate license for the work.

The AGPL was originally created to help users of Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) receive the source code for modified works as the GNU General Public License (GPL) did not qualify network interaction as distribution.

The CPL builds upon the AGPL to create an infectious copyleft requirement for all software that depends upon the work or builds/operates the work. For organizations that are already source available, this change shouldn't impact them. For other organizations, they will need to release the source code for the dependent software. They may also negotiate a separate license to use the work.
CLA's are common on projects with corporate contributions because they prevent open source from being accused of stealing IP. You need to sign a CLA to contribute to linux for example, and there are separate CLA's for users and for companies.
I guess some lines of work are special like that! you could just say "a dude on a horse" instead of cossack, or a robber instead of a thug, but here we are...
It's great that your personal experience and of those you interact with on the regular can provide your entire society a level of finality in this decision.

Here in the US, we generally rely on our judicial system (ending at the Supreme Court) to determine these bounds.
You ain't wrong!

It's a major reason why I'd never release a core revenue generating feature of mine under a permissive Open Source License.

Unsrupulous implies some form of an ethical code, whereby you are judged by intent, not by action - which is an idealized view of the world but an unrealistic one at that.
- We initiated the development of this idea by recognizing that any current website, application, e-commerce, or corporate website is striving to find the simplest and most convenient way for their audience to interact with others within their community. The most evident proof of this is that nearly 8/10 startup projects have Discord servers or Facebook groups to support their users, and this number rises to 11/10 for web3 projects (the surplus 1 accounts for a web3 project with a community, albeit one geared more towards deception than authenticity).

- The topic of discussion has been effectively addressed by other social networking sites. However, we aim to tackle a distinct issue beyond link-based discussions. A clear illustration of this is evident on the homepage of Hacker News, where the majority of posts consist of a single link, and conversations revolve around the content of that link.

- Put simply, our extension, in the case of Hacker News for instance, enables you to read the content of a website while engaging in parallel discussions with others. This eliminates the need to click on the web link and then return to read the comments from the Hacker News community.

- The problem of spam and undesirable content is a pervasive issue across the internet, not specific to any one platform. The most effective moderation approach is to empower users themselves.

- Website owners will have the authority to hide or downvote content they deem harmful or unfair. However, this process must strike a balance between the interests of the community and the owners, particularly if the website's content is genuinely detrimental to users.

> "No way to find what other people are talking about unless you happen to have the extension and go to a specific website."

=> We provide an additional SDK that allows owners to directly embed Builder into their websites without requiring end users to install the extension.

- Concerning mobile users, the ultimate goal is to create a mobile browser version where people can both browse the web and connect with the community on websites of their interest. Importantly, they are safeguarded by this community through a feature that detects harmful links, contributed and reported by users.
> They aren't being disingenuous. You're putting words in their mouth, and then getting mad at them about those words they didn't say.

No, they say open source needs to evolve, the implication this is an evolution (not devolution) of open source.

Their announcement talks about how they spoke to OSS experts. That's not relevant: the experts would simply have said: that's not open source.

Hashicorp several times say the BSL is permissive. Permissive is a well established term in software licensing. No, the BSL is not. The BSD and MIT and Apache licenses are permissive.

Finally there is this claptrap from their FAQ:

> 17. Does HashiCorp still believe in open source?
>
> Yes. [...]
I am facing this issue in the recent versions of Android Firefox where if I switch apps and come back, or lock and unlock the phone instantly leads to the page refreshing and scrolling back to the point where I was reading.
This is quite frustrating as I have to keep the Firefox app always open or wait a frustrating amount of time for the page to completely load and scroll down. Some pages with progressive loading will take a huge amount of time for the page to completely re-download and if you scroll even slightly, the auto-scroll to where you last left is lost.

I can replicate it with just a single tab and I have excluded Firefox from all my battery saving and memory saving features.
