>I have to admit I have been pleasantly surprised by their hardline stance in defending WhatsApp's e2e encryption.

I appreciate their stance as well, but I don't think it should be surprising. There's a real cost to updating WhatsApp to meet those requirements, and I think Meta's belief is that MPs will cave instead of taking the heat for banning WhatsApp.
This is not true at all. The cost of storage scales very well for hydrogen, must better than any other alternative.
Transportation is context dependent. If you can build transmission lines, then do so. But hydrogen and synthetic fuels allow you to ship energy half way around the world. It is still the second best option even in that case.
It would be great if such "creative" works were simply impossible to monetize. I already don't pay for these and try to find unknown artists / writers who have a job and do stuff simply because they enjoy doing it.
I've had 1-1's with about 500 engineers between working with them or interviewing them. I honestly think you are being difficult under this described situation, yes. I mention the number only in case you'd trust that you are not alone in thinking this but:

A competent professional understands from context the amount of time available, the absolute requirements of the role (ie regulatory compliance, internal engineering practices, whatever), and their own sense of "would I put my name on this crap" and then says a number.

If you hire a plumber he doesn't ask you if you give him 2 days or 2 weeks or if he should use copper or plastic or if he should bring his good tools or his bad tools. He just gives you a reasonable estimate and does a reasonable job. If he is asked for better, he knows how to make it more robust by spending a little more time or using better materials, the same way you should know to make it scale up to more users or spend time refactoring into some better abstractions. But there is a bar that he won't go under and no amount of company policy or explicit bosses are gonna fix the fact that at the end of the day, it's a professional's job to predict how they are going to go about their work and how long they think it'll take.
I've said it before and I'll say it again. I think we'd screw up geoengineering; there will be some miscalculation or unforeseen variable. It's too big a system to account for all the details.

I think out time would be better spent dealing with what's coming our way and taking our foot off the accelerator than trying to slam on the breaks or put it in reverse.
I can't tell from your writing what kind of sins you are even accusing the parent of, but personally, I have read about it and still share the parent's desires. I'm not sure why one wouldn't.
I considered it clean when everything had a single file or directory in $HOME. Some things didn't play nice but they were the exception. Now it might be that, or there might be files scattered among one or more XDG directories.
My favorite distro, I use it exclusively for the last 4 year. I have Debian Testing on my laptop (T14), workstation, Pi4. Works great. Meanwhile I've been trying Arch, Gentoo, Slackware, FreeBSD, but Debian is the best.
Well there is always increased returns and a drop in overall purchases because you believe the rating is bullshit. Maybe they were already so bad on both, that this lifts overall sales long term.
One important part is missing in this article: RSS Feeds! The missing aggregation of news can be done easily with RSS.

This sounds great. I had a MOTU AVB setup for a while which does exactly this, but it’s locked to their hardware. A non vendor locked version or app would be insanely useful.
Serenity is basically the same. Haiku is too close for comfort, but it's simpler because it's essentially single-user at present.

You want a radical idea? May I try to explode your brain?

We have persistent memory now. You can put a few terabytes of nonvolatile storage in your DIMM slots, and it's cheaper than RAM.

If your computer's memory map is entirely directly-addressible storage, every byte of every file is right there in the address space, all the time...

Then you don't need indirectly-addressed storage any more. No drives of any kind. No files of any kind. It's all in RAM all the time. You can dispense with filesystems completely and just manage it via an in-memory database or something.

No more folders. No more 2-dimensional tree. Every block of data can be found in 26 different indices if you want. Individual blocks of data can be in multiple programs, or documents, at once.

All that '70s hard disk stuff can just go away now.

But we're too scared. All we know how to do are disk drives and files in folders.

Redis Enterprise 7.2 Brings Innovations That Operators Will Love
Why are people still using alkaline batteries?

I have a bunch of Enloops which I pop into everything. Mice, keyboards, game controllers, TV remotes, soap dispensers, etc etc. I also have a bunch sitting in chargers, so I can quickly swap an empty battery with a full one whenever I need to. As far as I can tell, the ones I first bought in ~2015 are still going strong.

I do explicitly seek out products which take AAs as opposed to using internal rechargeable batteries, because I can swap out my Enloops in less than a minute, versus plugging the product in and waiting hours for it to finish charging!
Motorcycling is probably the most diverse and welcoming the hobby has ever been, with women now the fastest growing demographic. Unless you specifically mean the Harley Bro subculture?

It can extract more flavor. The most fruity and sweet brews I've ever had were good espresso shots. The same beans in a pour over are still fantastic, but it's all amplified and more pronounced when made as an espresso shot. There's also a syrupy texture that you really can't get with any other brewing method.

All that said, every day I drink pour overs and aeropress brews--I don't want to drop the $1k+ on a proper home espresso setup.
I think only some parts of a CAPTCHA are challenging you (data is labeled sufficiently for mistakes to be considered a failed solve), and the other parts are still in the process of being labeled, which you are helping to accomplish, so those have no influence on the immediate outcome.

At least that's how the old "type these two words" CAPTCHAs worked. It was crowdsourced human OCR of whatever text the machine OCR couldn't make sense of. I'm not sure if "find the bus/motorcycle/crosswalk/light" is the same way, but perhaps, and it does seem to offer leeway when there's only a few pixels of that item in the frame.
That’s an interesting view into Intel marketing’s ideas about where CPU-bound customers are burning cycles at scale.

Artificial Intelligence A Modern Approach 4th Edition

About halfway through. Pretty enjoyable read. Didn’t know much about AI before starting but the book approaches it on a fundamental level with relevant history so I feel like I’m getting a comprehensive education.

117 looks ok to me. They're probably one of the most improved countries in the world in the last 10 years, although overall France's is likely still lower thanks to all their 1970s nuclear power plants - decarbonizing decades before anybody gave a damn about global warming.

For reference Poland is at like 650. They use an ungodly amount of coal. Environmentally Poland are an absolute a disaster compared to every country in Europe (even poorer ones), but, they didn't shut down a couple of aging nuclear power plants so they're on the good side of the American nuclear power lobby and get relatively little stick.
Previous attempts looked at the heaviest query in terms of processing time, IO, or execution count. Those certainly slowed the server down, but the really issue were application freezes of many seconds and even minutes. Fixing those unblocked the server. The heavy queries are still there, but no one cares.

More technically, before, people focused on individual queries with the hope of finding the one that is slowing down the server the most. When we instead focused on sessions, and which ones block others due to locks and DB transactions, we were able to fix the root causes.

I am simplifying a bit, but that is the jist.

I needed to unpack some experiences after doing data privacy work in public health units and a health ministry, so in trying to understand what I saw, I read: Eichmann in Jerusalem: A Report on the Banality of Evil, by Hannah Arendt, with a critical forward by Amos Elon.

I found her observations about the moral conditions behind people committing atrocities were made on behalf of humanity in general, but somewhat at the expense of a necessary respect for the (then) new nation Israel at the time. I understand the criticisms of her, but I think most of her conceits are worth forgiving to understand how important her observations were.

She did derive a formula by which these things occur, since as a philosopher, she was able to see the role of ideologies as objects and moral mechanisms, with the trial evidence and dozens of hours of his testimony and psychological interviews as the example. Much of what she describes resembles normal government bureaucracy abstractions and what we recognize as crowd behaviors today - but driven by the zeal of a nihilistic inevitability, a sense of privileged enlightenment ("a bearer of secrets"), and a base materialist ontology. His defense was that he was dutiful, everything was "legal," it was an "act of state," his victims actively cooperated, the killing was "a medical matter," and that this was a sufficient moral basis for orchestrating a genocide.

I've found that the evil is far upstream of action, it begins in the blunting and dulling of the human spirit with cliches and ideology, and the horrors are a downstream effect of what was set in motion much earlier. I've read her "origins" book as well, but I'd recommend this one as more directly illuminating.
Great point, agreed, viral re-activation seems suspect on causality.

I was suggesting to crossreference Valtrex effectiveness against the activated virii in the study I linked. If Valtrex is not effective against the reactivated cohorts, we need more falsification around antivirals <-> ME/CFS.

strange people flagging my comment - but we were all told
1) you dont get covid if you are injected
2) you stay out of hospitals if you are injected
3) you dont have long term effects from covid if you are injected

actually the opposite is true. Friends of mine are dead, some others with multiple heart attacks, some unable to work.

But people flag my comment because they dont want to hear how they were duped - rather than getting angry about it.
But I don't want them to exist, I want to find content that is created because people (who earn money different way) enjoy producing it.
I hate this term of 'green'. It's conflating so many different axes of environmental effects, which is sometimes what we care about but it removes any nuance immediately. I find usually it distracts from one of the primary issues: carbon dioxide going into the atmosphere.
If I read a story about a flood in Dubai on the NYTimes and then I write an email to my friend summarizing what I just read, it is not copyright infringement.

I am not sure why it would suddenly become infringement because an LLM is composing that email for me.

Did the FEA account for the weakness from the layer lines or did it pretend it was an injection molded part (I'm assuming the latter).
It's low level, but still readable and, if necessary, editable. The problem I had was converting my visual code into a topologically sorted directed acyclic graph, with just vertices and arcs, where the arcs into and out of vertices are unordered. I found a way of doing this (thereby getting homoiconicity for free) and now can just store the textual representation of the graph, with each vertex on a separate line. I'm in the process of replacing the earlier representation, where I just stored lists of objects in an ad-hoc fashion. This works for pure dataflow programs or anything else which is equivalent to a DAG, but would not for e.g. LabVIEW.
As somebody who's gone from: RedHat 5/6 -> Slackware -> Gentoo -> Debian -> Ubuntu -> Debian. Debian (and it's derivatives) is the best of breed and will always be my distro of choice. Great job yall!
Thanks for the feedback.

> .. is there's pretty much no such thing as dumbing down too much.

Yes, you're right. I think it's easy to forget what's basic to someone, is often very challenging to someone else.
I'm supposed to make a choice? To understand something and then decide for myself? Wtf? This must be some new millennials shit, they want to ruin our society :(
The whole premise of captchas falls apart in the AI age and i’m glad not having to see anymore google captchas & co in the near future
Yeah I hadn't for ages either but have been using RHEL at work for almost a year. It's very annoying because of occasionally missing packages (e.g. `z3`), and just having to figure out different names of packages etc.

However I would have to say that `dnf` (the new `yum`) is waaay better than apt. For a start it is much much faster to install things. I don't know why apt is so slow.

But also it comes with great features to help you deal with very common and tedious Linux admin tasks, like "what package do I install to get this file my program is demanding?" (`dnf provides`) and they have some very nice features like if you run a command and it isn't installed it will offer to install it for you and then run your original command. Someone actually thought about UX for once.

Or if you run a program and it can't find a shared library, it will tell you all the missing libraries, not just the first one. It would be amazing if it also offered to install the right packages but it doesn't quite yet.

So in conclusion I'd stick with Debian given the choice but I sure wish the Apt developers would spend some time using dnf.
They can train whereever they want, but if they want to make the service available in the US, then US law applies.
This isn't really a problem with Debian but just "desktop Linux" in general. Lots of little quality of life/usability things that just don't exist or don't work. I'm a pretty happy user of Ubuntu w/gnome but I'm not going to pretend that it's some kind of great desktop system. I just prefer to use it anyway.
Agreed.

Yet, I think the one code base approach gives better results on desktop (Windows/macOS/Linux) than mobile. VS Code for example is quite nice. Do you think this is because there are more OS and UI differences between Android and iOS than between Windows/macOS/Linux? Desktop is more "standardized"?
That's true.

Besides Blazor, the WebAssembly Go port[1] does this as well.

I'm definitely one of the latter but it's very common and huge segments of the modern "fitness market" are specifically tailored to different flavors of this. Rock climbing, boxing & BJJ, racket sports etc. There are tons of options for people to get moderate physical activity while doing other things, and have a reasonable level of fitness from it.

But if you want to achieve even serious amateur athlete-level fitness on any dimension there's going to be a solid amount of drudgery to overcome though, and I don't see how VR really addresses that.
You can find the Timemore C2 for 50 to 60 euros and it is a pretty decent manual burr grinder. And for around ~100 euros you can find decent burr grinder from more known brand. If you are going to spend more than 200USD, you might as well buy an electric one.
as someone who is never logged in, this was actually the case a week ago. However, it has since returned to the old ways (which means that I get suggestions that are based on my history).

The answer to those problems is more public transit (in the US, it's mostly working class - if we make it normal across the socio-economic spectrum, people will demand more of it), more bike lanes, and safer spaces for pedestrians.

If it took you ~10 minutes to get to the store, it's probably ~2 miles by car. Maybe a bit further. That's easily done on a bicycle (not for large boards, but easily doable for moderate grocery runs or other regular errands). Or, a bus/tram - might take a few minutes more waiting for it to arrive at each end, but still not an hour (if it runs regularly enough, which it obviously doesn't).
It's time to abolish copyright.

I also do not quite get the GP comment. I see it also logical to block content on application layer from the OSI perspective. If you cannot do on the source do it at the sink if do not want to break e2e encryption. The DNS blocks have been taking down half of cloudflare in the past, so would IP blocks in many casesm

How to make this technically effective so that you really need a bit of criminal energy to bypass it is however questionable. At least in Germany I can actually as a user disregard any copyright for books etc if someone in the world offers content without any effective protection or obviously illegal (also resharing like in the BitTorrent case get you into trouble). So what are the alternatives? Pushing DRM ?

I would like to see a bit more constructive approach from mozilla. If you are the French and you see a problem. How would you solve it?
This sort of comment is a complete joke. You get what you pay for buddy. And nobody cares about your personal preferences. Also, as a datapoint, I hate the default macOS/windows behaviour and prefer the key combos.
I don't know, but this point is already refuted:

> without having a programming language that is powerful enough

Historically there have been plenty of interesting powerful languages on the periphery, but most of the useful stuff is not written with them.

I don't find it at all absurd. Order-of-magnitude differences in quantity often become differences in quality.

It's legal in most places in the U.S. to own a semi-automatic weapon that fires x bullets/minute, but not a fully-automatic one that fires 10*x bullets/minute. It's legal for me to send water into my sewer by flushing the toilet, but not for me to pump the larger volume of water in my sump pump into that same sewer.

It's legal for a child to throw a handful of sand from the beach into the ocean. Do you think it should be legal for anyone to build and operate a sand throwing machine that methodically throws all of the sand on the beach into the ocean?
Show HN: AutoStartup, A Llama 2 Agent That Plans and Builds Your Startup Ideas
Hi HN!

Last night, I live streamed myself coding this Llama 2 Agent on a Single GPU (Colab). After 6 hours it actually has some good results.

How it works is it takes in your intuition (e.g. "I think x would be cool") and develops a business idea (with a name and branding colors) and a business plan. After the business plan is developed, it criticizes this plan recursively until the "Investor" prompt is satisfied with the plan. After all this it will generate the final MVP idea and pass it to a the React Engineer Agent I live coded 2 days ago (https://github.com/jawerty/10x-react-engineer). Finally once the code is generated you have an option to pivot.

As for the AI's memory, I have a small vector db for history of good intuition+idea examples to use as context (builds as you generate) and a simple backlog of business idea criticisms.

Overall, this experiment showed me that you definitely don't need OpenAI keys to have an effective LLM Agent for you. This is only using the Llama 13b parameter chat model and doing a wonderful job. I spend maybe 5 dollars of Colab compute building this for 6 hours which is way more than it would be to mess around with this.

One caveat is the final react code base often needs some modifications to the package.json/webpack setup. However, It's generating the components/folder surprisingly well starting from the entrypoint file. I addressed most of these concerns in this video but still going to fine tune a model that's way better in my next video or just move to a fine-tuned starcoder for this portion.

Let me know what you think and play around with the Colab if you can!

If you want to see me live code more let me know any ideas you'd like to see built. I've been streaming projects like these most days this past month and don't feel like stopping haha.
Who’s verifying it though? 3d rendering won’t fool humans but could be tuned to fool bots.
Unless you have a massive library of possible actions these can be pre-rendered too.
Congrats on the launch! We looked into barcode scanning with webassembly about 2 years ago, and the open source libraries weren't great. Really glad to see that webassembly can work well for this.
That's not how derivative works are defined. For example, translations to other languages or extensive summarizations (condensations) count as derivative works even though no words are directly copied.
