Thanks so much, really informative! I need to read up on economies of Warsaw bloc countries. For some reason I’ve never even heard about a Poland bankruptcy in 1980-81, and I’m from Ukraine (so I’m more than familiar with goods deficit, sadly).
I used a technique like this a few years back in a production product ... We had an integration partner (who we had permission to integrate with) that offered a different api for integration partners than was used for their website but which was horribly broken and regularly gave out the wrong data. The api was broken but the data displayed on their web page was fine so someone on the team wrote a browser automation (using ruby and selenium!) to drive the browser through the series of pages needed to retrieve all the information required. Needless to say, this broke all the time as the page/css changed etc.

At some point I got pulled in and ran screaming away from selenium to puppeteer -- and quickly discovered the joy that is scripting the browser via natively supported api's and the chrome debugger protocol.

The partners web page happened to be implemented with the apollo graphql client and I came across the puppeteer api for scanning the javascript heap -- I realized that if I could find the apollo client instance in memory (buried as a local variable inside some function closure referenced within the web app) -- I could just use it myself to get the data I needed ... coded it up in an hour or so and it just worked ... super fun and effective way to write a "scraper"!

OnDocumentReady -> scan the heap for the needed object -> use it directly to get the data you need

It’s NOT a Superconductor, Says Uni of Maryland’s Condensed Matter Theory Center
Tolkien was not a medieval historian himself, but he was the next best thing to it: he was a professional linguist. And lingistics require knowing and understanding historical context in which languages had developed. Add to this Tolkien's own experience in the First World War, and it is not very surprising that his world is very realistic and internally coherent.

GRRM was... a script writer. He manages to get some of the details correct, but once you scratch below the surface, his worldbuilding largely falls apart.
And ClojureScript.

I had an experiment where I asked GPT-3 whether it agrees that AI-generated content will constitute 20% of all content in 9.999 years from now. It agreed. Then I said that it is very likely that subsequently, AI generated content will constitute 99.999% of all content in exactly 10 years from now. It agreed also.

GPT-4 was able to realize that’s too steep of an increase and was skeptical.
I and many others have done it for years. HTTP codes were not designed for the web in 2023. They were for the 90s.

> as though everyone at HN becomes disinterested in discussing subjective viewpoints once disagreement occurs.

Except you didn't present your viewpoint as subjective, did you?

No, like many of the other folks participating in this thread, you delivered it as objective truth:

> “Unsmiling” is not “unprofessional”.

> Smiling isn’t about courtesy, respect, or professionalism

Now in fairness, I'm not sure you even realize that's just an opinion.

Unfortunately, if you can't see that difference, then conversation devolves into an argument about those supposed "truths" and that's a conversation that cannot go anywhere since they aren't truths at all.

A meaningful conversation about differing cultural norms, how they might've come to be that way, how they work today, etc?

Yeah, that's interesting!

But if the goal is to just sling insults at folks and call people "weird" for having different subjective values? Yeah, I'll pass.

> I've never embraced Gemini because the idea that the web is better with NO images is just absurd to me. I don't care how good of a writer, no textual description of something you've seen will come close to conveying what a photo can, and if you're trying to describe abstract art you're doomed to failure.

Gemini does not prevent anyone to put images. What it doesn't provide is the semantic separation between a link to an image and embedding that image into the page. The choice is up to the reader. Actually the default setting of the lagrange gemini browser is to download and show the images by default.
That’s interesting, GPT-4 is actually quite good at these types of reasoning problems. This was the big step change between 3/3.5 and 4.

Maybe, once you take out the rose colored glasses, the past internet wasn't so great?

I remember being a kid and having a blast on the 2000's internet, but it was really hard to bump into a really good site. Tbh most of them were kinda crappy.

Like with past friends and past games: I missed the good times, but if I tried to recreate today the same things like I did in the past, I realized that everything changed: Some friends stayed friends, but some others simply didn't. And some interests didn't interest me anymore.

I also realized that what I don't really miss the old internet. I miss being a kid, having all the time in the world in my hands, with total freedom to play with the most absurd activities with zero regards about productivity and being amazed with the most simple things.
Its happened a few times here too

It's worth noting that these pre-built blocks are both convenient and incredibly flexible. Before I started getting my hands dirty, it was hard to really see this. For example, here's a masked gather operation along the innermost dimension of an arbitrary rank tensor A:

I'd hate to have to express that in serial code and then pray a compiler could lift the correct vectorized version out of it.

This. Nothing in my skim of the spec prevents me from using your hacked machine as an attestation oracle. This does nothing but add additional value to compromising end user devices.
So what not? This is still incredibly impressive technology.
I didn't have time to read this, but it is a single author paper, the author is not affiliated with a research group, it is not peer reviewed, it was published on a preprint server that I have never heard of.

LLMs can definitely perform some kinds of reasoning. For example GSM8K is a dataset of grade school math problem requiring reasoning that LLMs are typically evaluated at. We talk about one method for this in our chain of thought paper [1]

I suppose it also has the benefit that the works are child-readable. Little me thought she was tortured by beating and such.
I'm not entirely convinced that is all there is to it. I had it write some code and associated unit tests, and then it came up with passing and failing examples. I also prompted for function results based on arbitrary input, and it would perform the calculations.

It has some emergent ability to evaluate code IMO. I do believe this ability has been drastically reduced in the last several months. It no longer executes complex code as reliably as it once did.
These pieces stuck out to me:

Find out what the problem is, use your 1:1s to understand what makes people tick, and build a system that helps empower those who thrive with autonomy while simultaneously developing strategies to help those who are still struggling.

Don’t punish everybody because of the missteps of few.

I don’t think I’ve ever had a manager that really gave a fuck enough to “understand what makes people tick” much less build a system that helps empower them… and it makes sense- the mid-level SWE who’s been stuck at mid-level for 10 years got “promoted” to manager… and you think that sort of person is going to perform that job with distinction???
> However, a word calculator is precisely the tool we were missing to be able to create AGI

This seems like the kind of step that the person above you was complaining about.

The "emergent" features of LLMs, or LLMs even being a step in the direction of AGI is entirely unproven so far. They are however powerful enough that they spark the imagination and hypothesis of tons of amateur futurists (and many financial backers of such proyects)

>I never heard a thing like Debian 12 being tied to one specific model of laptop etc

Purism does this, though not to a specific device. For the products they sell they have their own custom fork of Debian.

>if people can upgrade and install any software they want, that reduces incentive for them to buy a new phone every 3 years

You are going to be limited by the support of the BSP even if you can install any software you want. You will end up stuck on old software which may not be properly maintained especially if the OEM has moved on to supporting newer products.

>If phones were like laptops or desktops, you'd just install the Android 13 on your phone when Android 12 was outdated etc.

Google has been making efforts to make it easier to upgrades parts of Android without involving the OEM. Later versions of Android may not me compatible with older hardware as minimum specs change and architectures are dropped. For phones with unlocked bootloaders you can flash Android 13 on your phone if someone creates a compatible version of it.

>If I don't have root shell then I don't own the device. Simply. Its a useless brick and toy.

UNIX is not the only way operating systems can be designed. Considering everything that isn't UNIX as being useless is an ignorant mindset.

>As I said, its not Android the piece of software rather the manufacturers who hate users

Then what's the point of this argument if you agree AOSP is a fine way to have an OS with Linux on a phone.

>They don't provide drivers generically either as blobs or sources.

This same issue would exist if you wanted to use Linux with a different userspace.

>Why is it again, when you have two computers and you can generally install and update anything on one and can't do shit on the other?

I don't understand what you are getting at.

>is active malice where even rooting or providing you the bootloader is often cryptographically locked down.

The bootloader being locked down isn't malicious considering it lets the system prove that malware hasn't compromised the boot process. In computing if malware is running first there isn't much the system can do the detect it's existence. It will have the upper hand in the cat and mouse game. If a normal person buys a ACME brand phone, but a malicious actor unlocked the bootloader and installed malware into the OS, that user will never realize they were pwned until they encounter software that is a step ahead in the cat and mouse game and the malware isn't able to hide its existence. A user having root is also problematic because it compromises Androids security model. If a banking app saves an access taken to your phone it is relying on the security of Android that no one is able to steal this taken. If the a user is able to get root they could bypass this and steal the token and commit fraud.
It's also annoying how that check page ends up breaking page reload in Firefox. When Cloudflare redirects you back to the page it will happen via POST. This initial POST gets captured by Cloudflare, but if you reload the page that POST will go to page itself and there's pretty good chance it doesn't know what to do with that and just shows error.

The only fix is to navigate back to page somehow, either by going to address bar and pressing enter (to navigate there again instead of reloading) or finding some link that points you back to the page.

I wouldn't be surprised if those POSTs will end up banning you from some website since they "know" you shouldn't POSTing to that page so clearly you are evil bot trying to hack them.

I generally think of code review like static typing: many people think they don't need it but pretty much every serious large codebase uses it and needs it.

And just like coding with types: code review does not have to be a chore! With good processes and good tools it can be a superpower and a key element of developer productivity.
The description of the talk is "How the quest for mainline Linux on mobile phones is faring"

Mainline Linux has a very specific meaning. It refers to Linus Torvald's repository of the Linux kernel. Android using mainline Linux on a mobile phone is in scope for the talk.

You said "it's difficult to craft a compelling case for why safety is actually--versus theoretically--impeded". That apparently means you believe there is a world where these incidents happening 10 more frequently [1] will not impede safety. I would like to know what that world is.

But if you can't make a case for a world where there's zero safety impact, then it seems like it would be pretty easy to make a case for a world where there's some safety impact.

Personally, I'd say that a bunch of people whose whole job is public safety saying that public safety is impeded is a decent case that public safety is impeded. But since you apparently believe otherwise, I'm looking for your explanation of how there's zero safety impact.

It happened to me and a friend, who too is in the IT and we go to great length to be anonymous. If something is possible to such a degree, it ought to happen.

Tolkien was actually the master of fridge logic... and fridge horror. Martin describes everything in detail... with Tolkien, he only hints at things, but when you understand things he is hinting at... let's just say that Middle Earth has a lot in common with Cthulhu Mythos.
Older generation fabs are critical. They power most of the machines around us, and often pump out low priced but capable chips. I certainly am not contesting that.

I responded to someone who seems to believe this is the great AI equalizer. This fab has no relevance to AI. And FWIW, Europe already has a number of much more advanced fabs! Intel is currently upgrading Ireland to "Intel 4" spec (which in TSMC land would be 7nm), and is building other fabs, for instance.

Ultimately this story is "German automakers want more control over supply chain of vanilla automation chips", and not much more.

As an aside, it's always interesting that we talk about Taiwan's revered chip prowess (South Korea is up there as well)...when the Dutch company ASML is really the technology key. TSMC executes extraordinarily well, but they wouldn't be doing it without ASML.
Does AMD have similar tensor core stuff?
A significant fraction of ML-adjacent people think it can do more.

I'll say that it's more than just words. LLMs can learn patterns, and patterns of patterns, recursively to a degree. They can represent real knowledge about the real world to the degree that this is revealed through the text they train on. This means LLMs can make inferences based on similarities, sometimes similarities at a surprisingly abstract level. And reasoning at the basic logical step by step can of course be done, since that can be reduced to textual pattern matching and string substitution.

But LLMs have no computational space to, for example, read about the description of a novel computation, and then perform the computation without using generated text as a scratchpad, if the computation physically takes more steps than are available in its feedforward stack. It would need to call out to a subsystem in that case. And callable subsystems are ripe for abuse through confused deputy - LLMs are not reliable deputies.

There's a lot of people, text-oriented people, who mistake authorial voice for animus. To me this is like mistaking a CGI animation for a real person behind frosted glass. Text is a low bandwidth medium and it relies on the reader bringing their own mental model to the party. So a machine which produces convincing text has a high leverage tool to seem more capable than it is.
I had the same thing happen to me once while driving in very rural West Virginia on some mountain highway. Google Maps crashed or something and cleared out my route. This place was so desolate that I was concerned I wasn't going to find any gas station nearby to even ask for directions. I had just enough EDGE cell service to make a phone call but couldn't get any app to download data. I called up my friend, gave her my GPS position from a GPS Status app I had recently installed (Google maps wasn't giving me a lat and long), and wrote down the route. I downloaded a map covering the entire route home when I got to my destination and have been doing that ever since for long drives.

I almost miss the days of printing out MapQuest directions
