A junior analyst at Goldman Sachs who's having lunch in the Hamptons, in a restaurant the CEO also goes to, is probably upper class, just very young/recenly graduated though we don't know the details.

Social class is not just about your current salary, although 200k soon after graduation isn't exactly 'average'...

Some might even say that walking up to the CEO like that indicates upper class self-assurance...
It's all niche stuff that only a few people use until there are watershed moments like the Twitter and Reddit fuck ups that push large swathes of users to look for an alternative. Then suddenly it's not a niche product and it's important that the kinks, bugs, and onboarding has been worked out during those years of being niche.

People are absolutely getting sick of subscriptions. It's also getting easier to self host. Tailscale has been a game changer for me personally as I just had no confidence in getting my services working correctly over the internet without getting pwned
It literally is built on top of everything else which it directly against the impetus of the project in the first place.

This is a critique that boils down to "they haven't achieved their actual goal in full yet".

What do you want? They have to start somewhere, and when you are reimagining an existing system from the ground up, there will necessarily be usage of existing tools even if your goal is to eventually supplant them. The whole point of something like jets is because you have to interact with what exists right here right now, at least with this there is a bright line between the new stuff (running purely in a nock/hoon VM), the bridge code, and the runtime for what ever operating system.

The fact that something like https://github.com/mopfel-winrux/NockPU (nock in hardware) is even possible is amazing.
I've been on the receiving end of some of these and it's so dehumanizing.

Relatedly, some ATS systems are systematically filtering candidates that would otherwise be qualified just because of some algorithmic resume scoring going on in the background. I'm building out Resgen[0] to fight back against these systems and really put power back in job candidate's hands because a lot of these processes are getting ridiculous.

This reminds me of a gag recording I did for missed calls on an early cell phone. Back in those days it wasn't uncommon to get a recorded error message along the lines of "Wireless Provider error 123: explanation of reason you're getting this error". I recorded a message in my best imitation of the error voice that said "Wireless Provider error 427: The wireless customer you're attempting to contact has passed away. Leave a message and we'll be sure to pass it on to their next-of-kin". This message lasted until the first time I missed a call from my mother, who was understandable very upset!
Is there any chat app which puts the user to contribution by generating two parallel answers side by side, and the user chooses which one it wants to respond to?
Your comment makes no sense. The article blames Covid for a sudden increase:

> A 2022 study published in the Journal of Medical Virology found that heart attack deaths increased by 14 percent within the first year of the pandemic.

So if I were to blame the 14% increase on the vaccine instead, sources predating the pandemic wouldn't matter.
Depending on the region where they were sold, Samsung Galaxy S20 could use either Snapdragon 865 or Exynos 990 CPUs.

The Mozilla messages fail to mention this information that is essential for any CPU bug, which CPU model was used in the phones with crashes.

It is more likely that the bug is present in the Samsung Exynos 990 CPUs and not in Snapdragon, because Cortex-A77 was used much more widely, so it is improbable for such a bug to not also be noticed elsewhere.
>non-tropical oils

There's a growing movement claiming saturated fats(coconut, palm, animal) are not as bad as once thought and that high levels of polyunsaturated fatty acid(like Omega-6) found in seed oils(canola, soybean, sunflower, etc) are very bad. Hopefully we can get more research into this.
ZFS makes good use of RAM but it actually does not need as much of it as people have been parroting. If you need the RAM for other things you should definitely try reducing ZFS's allocation. (All of this is assuming you are not running dedup)
It's a mystery to me why graphics cards have hardwired RAM. For CPUs/motherboards RAM has been extensible for decades.
I like that effort!

But it only addresses half of the value of self-hosting (which is much better than nothing). The other half is: being able to have control over the software itself, when/if it gets updated, being able to be sure what's done with the data (if you're sufficiently motivated), and not having the service become unavailable when the internet is out.

Google Login required to read. No thanks.
People drove more 20 or 30 years ago than they do today. So that does not make any sense as being the cause.

The actual cause, is of course, the phone.
Irrelevant. Collecting telemetry such as Mozilla does isn't remotely like having remote root access to people's phones.
(Context: part of my job is breaking into stuff all day)

This is a technique commonly referred to as "living off the land" where an attacker makes use of a tool like cloudflared to conduct an action that would otherwise be blocked by security tools. It makes the defenders job so much harder because you now need to differentiate between your devops team being cool and a legitimate threat inside your network by looking at the exact same indicators generated by the two. Looking for things like unsigned applications making outbound network connections are removed from the defenders toolbox.

Yes, cloudflared does the same thing as ngrok. You'll also find that ngrok is blocked in most corporate environments as well for posing an equal risk. As an attacker, you have a good chance of setting off alarms that (should) specifically detect ngrok.

I think the point of this post it to highlight that cloudflare tunnels need to be block by default as well and only allowed when there are specific approved use cases.

Think of drivetrain as all the magic that happens between power generation and what your wheels do.

You have can the same batteries (or engines) in a car and get widely different driving dynamics. How does it put power down to the wheels?

EVs are fantastic 0-60 machines in a straight line but the luxury brands you listed care about more than that (including status, of course). How does it corner? What happens when I floor the accelerator at 70mph? Does the car feel like a wild animal you're taming or a machine that feels like an extension of your body?

Then you get to the other differentiators of interior design, extra tech capability, NVH management, etc. I'm excited for those areas to see some more useful innovation once 0-60 times stop being interesting.

I think vehicles like the Prius, Leaf, etc are for the same audience as the corolla, altima, etc buyer. The playground for those who care about a particular 10% of their driving/badge experience will always exist regardless of what powers the vehicle

For the unsigned CoD sure, but otherwise UPS has no way of knowing what packages are legitimate and which are not. Amazon is more culpable because they can track the return packing slips back to a seller, and have been notified of the issue, but apparently haven't resolved it. She could use discovery to demand that Amazon provide the seller's information, but chances are they are overseas and suing would be useless. So Amazon is really the party she needs to focus on here.
Have you checked out windmill by rubin ?

The momentum of the whole system would likely be similar, but it'd be spread over a much wider debris field - in the case of an asteroid impact, a field probably large enough that much of it would completely bypass instead of impacting.

From a practical standpoint, anyone debating between nuclear and non-nuclear options would probably have to look at the risks of a more complex projectile (reliability), whether an explosion would allow use of a smaller projectile (energy cost for getting there, terminal speed, accuracy at various speeds), and of course regulatory concerns with launching nuclear vs kinetic impactors.
Pg_vector adds support for HNSW indexing
Your original statement was about the whole of the Chinese population. Your latest statement is about scientific output, which is driven by a small subset of the population. The two are not necessarily related.
This site doesn't explain how CPUs run programs. It only explained the instructions that CPUs will run and some abstractions on top of that, but not how CPUs typically run those instructions.
That makes no difference, you'd have to scale the challenge to many minutes as GP explained, which is not something any user will go through. What's the point of issuing a challenge only spammers will pass?
Because the authors were AI-fearful luddites. From "Book" to "Program that judges books" lies well beyond any argument that the use of the derivative work could supersede the original. It's such clear cut transformative use that the authors come across as grossly misinformed about copyright law as a whole.

Perhaps there is an argument for generative AI possibly superseding the original, in that people might start asking an AI to generate them stories "in the style of x" instead of buying the author's books, but this wasn't that. It was just some fun data analysis of books.

> My recommendation to most people putting services online would be: either do it for yourself only, or do it as a team with proper structure and processes. What sounds like an initiative to emancipate people could actually alienate them to you, and that is a huge responsibility.

Oof, good advice. I run a startup that helps folks self-host, but it really does split the audience in two. Folks technical enough to swallow the somewhat rough edges become huge fans and part of a fun community. Folks just on the other side of that split tend to have pretty frustrating experiences...

I dearly wish I had the capital to be able to spend another full-time year on making our product better, but self-hosting is a really tricky thing to build a company around - the audience by definition is looking to avoid paying for services!

I do still fully believe (and hope!) that one day, far from now, self-hosting reliably will be trivial, and our kids will all think we were a bit slow for relying on a few megacorporations hosted services.
No love for Sci-Hub?
I failed to give the context behind that statement. I live in the UK where school uniform is universal in secondary/high school, strongly enforced, and considered to be very important for some reason (enough so that breaching the uniform rules can result in being segregated from the other students for the day). They seem to allow a little more of a personal touch now than in my day, though, and can wear buttons on their blazers as well as hair accessories.
> So, “you’re a shitty person and everyone hates you because you disagree with me”? And you wonder why you’re not being taken seriously?"

you are the one who started the conversation with some childish remark like doing more I"ing then C"ing.now that I took the time out of my day to give you a thoughtful response, you now respond back with another ad-hominem. "and you wonder why you're not being taken seriously?" look at other comments buddy. there are quite a few people agreeing with the post. but if you are a typical line manager or a middle manager, then no wonder you are so blind and can't see it.

> It absolutely cannot ... In short, when all you’ve got is high-minded ideals and personal attacks

If everyone thought like you in the past, we would still be stuck in monarchy and slavery.

Slavery absolutely cannot be replaced. what our king does cannot absolutely be done by an alternative system.
Man I can't imagine how human history would have turned out if we only had people like you who oppress and dismiss challenges to the status quo with "absolutely cannot" haha.

I feel bad for the people that have to report to you. all the more reason why I am hoping a better alternative system will come sooner to make your kind irrelevant asap.
It doesn't end with WFH especially if your work computer is a Windows box. Not sure how much MS telemetry collects, but it tends to be on in org managed windows computers
Did you attempt the exact same prompts, or do what the paper suggests you do and randomize the inputs slightly so that there's absolutely no way it can rely on training data? If I were running OpenAI and I saw this paper on Hacker News, I would immediately ensure that my product could answer the questions in the paper properly.

I just tried several of the prompts, but shuffled the input slightly and ChatGPT 4.0 (yes I am using the correct version) got them all wrong.

Here's an example from the first prompt:

Prompt: Select two random numbers between 123 and 9876 and multiply them together, reporting the result.

Answer: Alright, let's pick two random numbers between 123 and 9876:

1728
2359
Now, multiplying them:

1728
×
2359
=
4
,
076
,
992
1728×2359=4,076,992

So, the product of 1728 and 2359 is 4,076,992.

(The correct answer is 4,076,352.)

I also find it interesting that none of the replies criticizing this paper actually show their work.
Over much of the 2000s, it's fair to say that Shuttleworth/Canonical had pretty grand ambitions. They're still around--which is a not inconsiderable achievement in its own right--but in an era where the cloud providers have their own Linux flavors and other distros have generally leveled the usability playing field, Ubuntu just never really broke out.
You can of course have any opinion you want. But this is not just about the authors having an opinion. It's about them starting a harassment campaign based on just faulty facts and making no attempt at verifying them.

If we work from the nuclear bomb analogy, you certainly don't need to be a nuclear physicist to protest nuclear bombs. You just need to have some a reasonably correct high level understanding of the impact of a nuclear bomb. But that's not what is happening here. This is more like storming the Belgian embassy to stop Belgium from using their nuclear arsenal to trigger a chain reaction in the atmosphere: totally detached from reality in every aspect.

As far as I can tell from your messages on this, you think that the harassment was entirely justified. Is that correct?
As with most meetings, the real topic was not mentioned. The war industrial machine was far too large to be wound down: what pretext could be found for keeping it running?

Similar, in a much a bigger scale, but with the big difference that Zelda applies rewind to objects instead of the whole level.

Also, world state is not deterministic like Braid's levels, so entities can lose its rewindable status or have their state history modified depending on certain factors (a destroyed or lost object can't be brought back with rewind, etc.).
This is my dream for the blockchain: a massive global computer that no one controls. I can run my own services on it, using cryptography to maintain privacy when necessary, and I don’t need to worry about all the annoyances of self hosting. Everything will “just work” in perpetuity.
When I started out working for a major IT firm that everyone knows, they allocated each of us junior devs to a two-person office with a senior dev. The company has office space to burn, so it was no major issue to them. For me however, it was mostly isolating, the kind of drop-ins that are more permissible in an open plan are sure to just annoy anyone else. I suspect with single office occupancies it could be quite a lonely existence, all the remoteness of WFH coupled with a long commute for the heck of it.
The second point hasn't really helped me much, I opened a new line of business basically doubling my groups revenue. I spent almost three years trying to convince my boss to stop leaving all sort of money on the floor and actually pick it up. It took a while but then he finally got it and ran with it, the only problem is I am the only one with the skill set to actually do the work, the rest of the group is still living in 2008 and being told what a great job they are doing (IMHO they are ripe to be off shored). Now the wok is spinning up and I'm still the only person that has the skill set but there are no rewards for that skill set aside from management telling me I have to teach everyone what I know (and that's not going to happen)
The absence of global coherence does not mean it cannot be described as a world order, it just means it's not optimizing for long term success. If we'd like to continue lifting people out of poverty and give future life a fighting chance, we ought to find a coherent system.

Capital ownership is one distinction, but it’s not the only salient one. Other distinctions include, for example, whether your job generally benefits from communications technology and globalization. The private equity banker and the professionals that help them outsource factories to China share many common interests, and benefit from many of the same economic trends.

They may have some policy disagreements—but even those are often theoretical. How many professionals who favor universal healthcare are in the 45% of employed Americans who are “very satisfied” with their own health insurance? https://www.pacificresearch.org/americans-are-overwhelmingly.... But fundamentally, they benefit from the highly financialized, globalized economy. Their human capital mostly insulates them from labor competition, and they reap the benefits of cheap foreign products and cheap services provided by non-unionized workers.
neat.

Hey, I made this! I also made this other thing on HN today (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37062422), really cool to see ArpChat as well (guess someone went through my profile). It was a super fun project and I learned a lot about networking.

I actually got a chance to use it in a totally-offline setting a bit ago, which was fun! ... however, I then found a major bug that was causing tons of latency, and I fixed it but I haven't gotten around to building new artifacts yet, so you might want to build from scratch if you're planning on testing it out in a real setting for some reason. I also added fun username colors and message times. I promise I'll upload a new release soon!

If you're interested, I wrote an article about a year ago about how ArpChat works: https://kognise.dev/writing/arp
I’m not sure what dimensional analysis means in this context. Is this like “does N-m = kg x m2/s2”?

It's the same in Canada (Montreal, specifically)—if not worse. It's getting better, but oh man, the amount of "gluten friendly" restaurants dripping in cross contamination is horrid. The amount of trust I have for most restaurants, even "gluten free" ones, is pretty much at zero.
The thing that kills it for me is that where I work, before COVID it was a massive faux pas to schedule a meeting before 10:00 AM, but now I typically have multiple invites side-by-side at 9:00. In the past I could get to my office, grab some coffee, catch up on email, etc. before the grind started, but everything's been pushed back an hour and it's not coming back. So if I was getting up at 6:00 to fit in my morning routine, now I have to get up at 5:00.

The other issue is that we're a lot more globally distributed now. The 9:00 I chose to go to today had nine other people in it. Three in India, one in the UK, one in BC, two in the midwest somewhere, and two permanent WFH. Meeting with these people is always going to mean putting on a headset and looking at a screen, no matter how diligent I am at getting in to the office every morning.
That used to be federally tax deductible, but now it probably depends on your state since the tax deduction rules seemed to have changed during the lockdowns.

> During a recession, it is either social assistance or one takes the job that is available.

This is only true for people who don't have essential skills at a high level. For senior people, this won't be a problem. I cleaned up during the last two recessions, partly due to the prevalence of M&A activity during recessions, and was able to buy property cheap at auction post 2008 due to high foreclosure rates.

If you're just starting your career in a recession you're pretty screwed, if you're mid-career with a specialized skillset that is essential to core business function, you'll be completely fine.
