yeah but I was raised to be a good kid and do what the teacher or adult authority figures tell me to do. Even though I'm an adult now, when a fast talking recruiter demands to know some numbers I have a hard time not just folding and giving in! I would need to print out those words and paste them on the wall and like practice 10 times with a friend playing the role of sneaky recruiter.

Nvidia Revenue Rises 88% in Second Quarter

The link is a random Internet person's post from 2000 about a single 1995 Consumer Reports review.

> You have to understand their methodology because they may be ascribing “points” to things you don’t care about at all - especially if you’re looking for longevity.

Every review everywhere, unless I hire the reviewer personally, will examine factors I am more and factors I am less interested in. They can't simultaneously, precisely serve everyone's varied interests (ok, I guess they could try some social media feed-type algorithm).

> the “scientific method” has nothing to do with actually using the toilet to eliminate human waste.

That's confusing. The scientific method is to actually do it and report what happens, not talk theoretically or speculatively about it from our basements like the rest of the Internet. CR generally does that (the scientific method) in extensive labs, staffed with experienced scientists and engineers. If you read their toilet reviews, that's what they do - put something in and flush. CR's core product is science, applied to consumer products.

> especially if you’re looking for longevity.

CR looks at longevity for many products, including extensive surveys of product owners.

I think you are responding to this sentence read literally:

> I have something to tell you that will help you solve your problem, but you should sit down first, because it's probably going to make you sad...

but I'm almost 100% confident that it was meant with the sarcasm it deserves.
As a practical matter none of that stuff is actually useful to a middle-class person who wants to design and build an affordable, livable, code-compliant house in the real world. If you want to read it for entertainment as a piece of literature or philosophy then go ahead, but it's not going to help the OP at all.

I feel like it's pretty great that people /don't/ know about Andreas' YouTube channel nowadays. Shows how much the project grew.
As a 39 year old who's changed jobs a lot in his life, I highly encourage exploration and some soul searching. Take some community college classes, try some hobbies, go explore nature and give your mind some room to breathe. Maybe after a brief stint you'd decide you still like tech (or the money) the most. That's okay.

Also, I've done tech work for non tech companies my entire career. They tend to be way less toxic and full of diverse, interesting people, many of whom aren't tech bros. It makes for better working environments IMO, but you have to like people for that.

But whatever you do, IMO, don't do it right now. The market is really tough right now and you'd be competing with hordes of laid off FAANGers wherever you go. Maybe wait a bit unless you're super confident.
There's one thing that a company can do if they want to prove to their users that they'll always stay open. Ask their external contributors to sign a DCO (developer certificate of origin) instead of a CLA (contributor license agreement.) The latter transfers the copyright to your contribution to the company, the former is merely an assertion that you do own that copyright and are legally allowed to contribute.

This way, all external contributors own a small part of the copyright to the project. This makes changing the license almost impossible, as it would require either seeking permission from all those contributors or removing all of the code that they wrote.

Whether a company uses a DCO or CLA should be the litmus test of how they really feel about open source. I'd strongly reconsider making your business dependent on any products from the latter.
Thus, the question remains why "coffee grounds", which in this case should be the same as wood ash, add strength.
Example.com is certainly acceptable as well but it does have a somewhat negative side effect of being an actual running, pinging, sometimes-service-responding host which means if people paste the documentation verbatim it may either actual execute or take longer than normal to timeout (ssh would fall into the latter). ".example" is reserved for the same purpose but does not have any registered domains, on top of being a few characters shorter for when you need more than 1 name in your documentation.
When you partially update a table record, you need to determine which columns you want to update and prepare them as parameters, only including those that need to be changed. This is straightforward work for an ORM and/or query builder but not parameterized SQL. What does your implementation look like, as I can't follow your explanation.

I found that both the parameterized SQL and ORM/QB have an important role to play due to the partial updates and occasionally query building exercise. None is ideal for every situation.

Yev from Backblaze here -> we've had increases on the Computer Backup service in the past but this is the first one for B2 Cloud Storage since launching it in 2015, however we hope the added value for both outweighs in the increased cost.
If you're interviewing, you've getting lowballed.

Picture a board chairman discussing a CEO position with his or her top candidate. The chairman's courting the candidate, they're playing golf, they're dining together and he's trying to convince him CEO is a job worth taking.

The job's his, and so is any reasonable dollar figure he wants.

Now, if that fails then the chairman may have traditional interviews with his second or third choice candidates. But they're for sure getting paid nowhere what the first candidate would get.
Absolutely monster numbers. The aftermarket trading is up over 8% as of right now, roughly $41 USD to approximately $513 a share. Insane.

Anyone who is a lot more versed in company valuation methodology see this as being near peak value, or does Nvidia have a lot more room to run?
Typical Gartner Hype Cycle pattern, just faster than normal.
Whelp, I guess those September NVDA call options I sold are going to get exercised. Who woulda guessed after the crypto fallout that "AI" would come along and bump the price back up.

Record revenues, and a dividend of $0.04 on a $450 stock? That's not even worth the paperwork. For example, if you bought 100 shares, that's $45K. From that, around September $4 will show up in your account, which you have to pay taxes on. So $3 or so net on a $45,000 investment. Sure, there were stock buybacks, but why keep the token dividend around?
The interesting thing about the Vision Pro is how what hype there was has just flatlined.

Curiously I do not think Google and Samsung are terribly badly placed. One oddity of the AR and VR space is the web stack for it works surprisingly well, including in the Oculus browser on the Quest 2. Frankly as a third party dev you would have to be a bit nuts to go all in on platform specific APIs and it would be wiser to go either web or Unity.

This means I doubt we will see the emergence of another hyper sticky App Store type phenomenon, if the entire sector takes off at all.
That’s a personal decision of course, but the most dangerous cars have real world death rates over 200x that of the safest designs, and they are all legal[1]. Driving is incredibly dangerous on average, yet the risk can be almost entirely mitigated by choosing the right vehicle. I find it shocking how much difference there is.

Up more than 10% after hours compared to close yesterday. I really thought NVDA had hit its ceiling at $1+ trillion, apparently not. Really does feel like a huge opportunity for Intel to me. They have the fab capacity to pump out at least reasonably competitive GPUs if they can figure out the software side of things.

P/E still above 50 even after the AI craze 9x'd eps this quarter. Still hard for me to see that valuation ever makes sense but what do i know.

In my opinion it's likely mostly pull forward demand. Companies are racing to buy as many chips as possible and hoard them.

I already saw a few posts here on HN from companies that threw down insane amounts of $$ on H100s and are now looking to rent out their excess capacity. I'm guessing we'll be seeing a lot more posts like that soon.

These receipts foot with my own observations. Transphobia does tend to eventually get flagged, but often it only happens after the comments section has dropped off the front page, and all it takes is browsing with "showdead" to reveal things that range from obvious "groomer" and "mentally ill" dog-whistles to being downright scary.

In the meantime, anti-transphobic comments or people complaining about the lack of moderation of transphobic comments are usually downvoted or flagged, and all you have to do is look at the root comment of this thread for evidence of that.
> Salary negotiation is all about information asymmetry

Which is exactly why the whole article tells you to not reveal any information and to get as much as possible.
You agree with the article..
Nvidia is the pickaxe seller in a gold rush. Their valuation is very much tied to how big AI grows in the next several years, and how quickly competitors can arise. I could easily see them continuing to go up from here, especially if AI keeps on expanding utility instead of leveling off as some fear.
Pyrolysis isn't exactly burning stuff, it's carbonizing it by heating without access to air. So no, it's not the same as wood ash because it's not ash.
There's already a huge collection of open-source Anki decks, and I don't need to be logged in anywhere to use them. I'm not affiliated with the Anki project, i'm just telling you why I'm not seeing the advantage here.

Maybe if you put more information up front it would be a better proposition. You need more than a pitch going 'this product is the best!!!' for me to start investing time and giving out information.
Is it really? Maybe it depends on your market, but I've been able to do it... pretty much every time over the last 12 years. You apply to a bunch of places over ~2 weeks, then try to get the slow ones to speed up and/or the fast ones to slow down. If you've got an offer and are waiting to hear back from a few other companies, you can usually just say that and the first offer will wait a week or two.
Was writing a new compiler really that hard?

Or was it just the abstraction hell, and lack of documentation?
The thing is, as an employee you tend to look for a new job only if you start to feel unhappy. This puts you in a slightly needy position and does set the tone. I used to be self employed and learned to enjoy the negotiations. It is kind of crazy to have this binary situation of beeing either employee or contractor but i dont have a solution either.
From my recollection of my developmental psych courses, the studies on this subject generally control for "time available" by including cohorts of adults in full-time immersion programs, or even adults who move permanently to a new country. The results have always consistently shown that even with dedicated study and full time immersion, adults will never reach the same level of linguistic fluency as would a child within the critical period (generally < 11 years old) because they're incapable of acquiring the phonemes of a new language to the same degree as a child, due to fundamental limits of neuroplasticity in the regions of the brain responsible for language acquisition.

So yes, obviously if you don't have time as an adult to learn a language, you won't learn it as well as if you can dedicate the rest of your life to it. But the point of the results of "critical period" studies is that even if you dedicate the rest of your life to it, you'll still be at a disadvantage compared to a child, when it comes to attaining perfect phonetic and linguistic fluency.
I think its good, but they are poisoned chalice jobs and smacks of virtue signalling.

> This way, all external contributors own a small part of the copyright to the project.

People don't need to sign a DCO, or any other document, for that to be the case.
Intel doesn't seem to be able to execute. It's not just pumping out GPUs - for AI you need drivers, and the equivilent of CUDA and all the various libraries built on CUDA like cuDNN. They do have OneAPI but it hasn't caught on like CUDA in that space. It's kind of too bad since OneAPI is open and CUDA is not.
Mostly “training” to do abstract things, not really for survival or fun.

I could catch fish since a fairly early age, mostly because I enjoyed it.

At about age 12 I used to drive stolen cars around without any training at all except observation.

It too me decades to become a corporate robot though :)

I think training is a weird word, life is an experience, not just training. I think your comment demonstrated the limitations of language to describe things.

I don't know. Historically, it seems pretty easy to spot extreme overhype in the moment, without the need for years of hindsight. The most obvious sign that this was excessively overhyped was when people were seriously arguing about whether AGI is right around the corner.
That forgets the whole session when you close it. I meant a way to isolate websites for tracking purposes but also continue to use it over time rather than throwing away all cookies.
I've had some success by saying a ridiculously high number, and then quickly adding that "This is what it would take for me to accept an offer on the spot. As I learn more about the role and team and how well this would fit me, I expect that number to go down significantly."

Once they've responded to that I ask something along the lines of "By the way, what's the budgeted range for this role?" or "are you forbidden from sharing the range for this role" or something along those lines.

For some reason, recruiters seem more willing to share the range after I've anchored high – perhaps because they get insecure about whether they've misjudged my qualifications.
mDNS is the right way, the comment was directed towards the common mistake of thinking it's like .lan. or .home.arpa.
I love people pretending that psychology/psychiatry is a scientific field instead of a wasteland of fraud/studies that don't replicate. Everyone has their own psychological disability like an astrological sign and it is completely "backed up" by "research" ha ha.

> it would require either seeking permission from all those contributors or removing all of the code that they wrote.

I might be mistaken, but I believe this would only apply to copyleft licenses? Permissive licenses allow redistributing under a different license, as long as the attribution and original copyright disclaimer are retained.
This is not the news of Prigozhin's (apparent) death.

This is an interview with Bellingcat's Christo Grozev from earlier this month where he states, among other things, that he expects Prigozhin to either die or attempt another coup within the next 6 months.

It's a very interesting interview, and I thought especially so given recent news.
Oof, 20% increase in B2 pricing. I suppose a price increase was inevitable, but thats a pretty big jump.

Now that they are publicly traded, you can see their financials and they have been losing money every quarter. This price increase doesn't appear to be because it is more expensive to store data and provide their services on top of that - gross margins are roughly the same as a year ago.

Instead their increasing losses appear to be entirely due to an increase in staff costs, which are growing faster than their revenue. Last quarter, they spent $10M on R&D, $10M on sales and marketing, and $6M on general and administrative. These operating expenses were actually greater than their revenue, which means even if hard drives and the other associated costs of revenue were $0, they would still have lost money.
They drove the same (or likely worse!) in 1960 when cars went just as fast as today, but they didn't have either the drivers training or the safety features of a modern car.

Is this true when running non-MacOS? A lot of the things that make a system blow through battery are OS-related things. XP wasn't exactly designed with battery life in mind.

Hi Dylan -- new GPT-4 class LLMs have gotten good at writing correct SQL, but while the SQL they generate almost always executes correctly they often write SQL that generates incorrect answers to the question. Some reasons for this can be the business context or definition is not in the table schema, or if the correct query is complex and requires multiple joins.
What makes it a meme stock? It's printing money from an industry that is only starting. This isn't crypto nonsense.

> AI is the thinker

As an AI specialist, I strongly object that statement. There's usually very little surprise in what "AI has discovered", usually we spend months of hard work to make it discover that one thing. But all the credit goes to "AI" :)

PS: I'm yet to see an AI (in any area) that's the thinker.
Right but the market is saying that a dominant GPU business is worth more than a trillion dollars. Just hard for me to believe that they can't get the business off the ground with that kind money on the table. Can't they just hire all of nvidia's developers and pay them 5x as much?
Haha I will make no apologies.
> In democracies, politicians have to care about what the public thinks.

The US is not a democracy for 90% of Americans (Princeton study).

> Americans as a whole are extremely judgmental about moral issues, and any president that stands by and allows 25 million Taiwanese to be crushed under the boot of the CCP will go down in history as the biggest coward since Neville Chamberlain.

Sure. Except America will support “bad guys” and oppose “good guys” according to what suits them (like natural resources). Like how Saddam Hussein was an ally of the US until he went against their interests.

The American people protested Reagan's interference in Latin America. That made them stop doing it. Right? No. They just went clandestine.

> By and large yes, I do think democracies tend to operate (highly imperfectly) out of the goodness of their hearts (as they perceive it).

I feel like narcissism gained public attention when the media started making armchair diagnosis of a certain orange man.

I set out on a journey about 4 years ago to explore the trauma and abuse in my past, and a large number of resources for sufferers of C-PTSD deal with the fallout from narcissistic abuse. I eventually determined that my abusers are probably not narcissistic by any means, but I suppose it's good to raise awareness.
Sure, I get that.
