Interesting. What is the reason for doing that?
I'd expect that many folk clubs are pretty accepting these days. Unfortunately, many others aren't, and it's very difficult to know from the outside which is which.

I think they selling point is that you do not have to solder. Soldering is not for everyone: you need expensive equipment, soldering in an appartment without proper ventilation is quite harmful to your health, young kids should not solder.

I used breadboard to play with electronics during winter in my small appartment at that time. No troubles with fumes, no need to buy expensive soldering station, no need to safely get rid of tin with lead. This was a good way to start, now I own a soldering station but now I also know that I need it about 2 or 3 a month.
I think there is barely room to hate this type of website. It knows what it is.

Another comment described it as a “glossy magazine” vibe, which seems perfectly apt. Lots of us bemoan the fact that the internet isn’t a textbook or newspaper anymore. It is annoying when, like, NYT or something like that goes in a silly direction, but we’re not out here complaining that Mad Magazine and the backs of cereal boxes aren’t functional.
At first I asked myself: "Why would Google do something so idiotic?" But then I remembered: they don't care.
You do have a valid point that the LLM is closed aka OpenAI's API. We were thorn about it ourselves but decided to release with OpenAI because of it's ease of use for devs. We have already tested Llama-2 and seeing more and more pull for it, especially by enterprise who have can't use OpenAI because of privacy and IP issues. Thus, OSS LLMs are next on our roadmap :)

Rest of the stack is fully open-source and it's much more than a wrapper. Maybe the impression comes from the aspect that we've made getting started dead simple with the minimal Copilot example. The framework covers a lot of ground so you can build your copilot easily: backend, adding a knowledge base & dynamic data, front-end, monitoring & evaluation.

This is pretty much v0.1 release. What else would you love to see?
It's me, yes, are you Michael then ;)? Yeah, I love the Office.js platform, I believe it's the most versatile extension platform there is, it just came out during an unfortunate time (when people believed that you can't use JS without React anymore ;) Anyhow, the magic of Office.js is that you can use it like a JS framework with total freedom what you use on the backend (it's just a fetch call away), so whether that is .NET or Node or Python/R/Julia doesn't matter at all, it's just that the official docs don't really bother to explain that or show an example other than Node & C#. What's a game changer (and only available on Office.js) is the integrated authentication via SSO/Azure AD, which is the first thing any IT department in a corporation is interested in.

Similar concept but before these tokens, I remember (I think in 2014) when someone uploaded a word file to dropbox and got notified that it was open, and if I’m not mistaken it was also when they had E2E encryption, but not sure about the last part.
That would be nice, but the current funding level is already under political attack. There is absolutely no chance of increased funding when people are already incredibly pissed about the tax burden.
> but only a regulated utility can build a transmission line?

Yes. Transmission and delivery are still run by highly regulated utilities that still largely operate like traditional utilities. They require approvals to increase prices and generally require more paperwork to do anything, massively limiting their ability to move quickly. If their budgets for the next few years are already set in stone it's hard to convince them to spend another few billion expanding.

Pricing for delivery is highly regulated. Prices for energy to consumers is up to the Retail Electric Providers (REPs) which has much looser regulation. Those REPs can devise lots of different pricing strategies. Those are then separate from power producers which bid on production on day ahead and spot markets.
I've always loved websites with great photographs and videos. Other sites feel like over-engineered PowerPoints.

Could you elaborate? It may not be a replacement, but I can think of a few use cases where RAG could be avoided entirely by having the model be fine tuned on the right dataset.
> A fossil fuels company has deep incentive to minimize the harm of fossil fuels

You... you're aware that the actual, historically realized, attitude of fossil fuel companies has been to deny any harm exists, right? Deny it to the tune of 200 million dollars as recently of 2019, and for good reason! That spending bought them lots of political inaction since the science was settled in like 1990, you know: the days where keeping staying below 1.0 degrees warming was a realistic goal.
Perhaps the title should have said "morally reprehensible" instead of "wrong" answers. While morality certainly has some subjective aspects, all humans worthy of any right to exist would have no difficulty identifying slavery and genocide (two subjects addressed in the article) as immoral and, as such, are not engaged in "attempts to rewrite/erase history".
I think the idea is to change that pace.

Dependency hell may be an issue if you install arbitrary libraries into the container at runtime. Note that this feature isn't currently available in the preview.

The near loss of texts in the Nag Hammadi library and the fragmentary transmission of Parmenides (or Sappho, Thales, Manetho, and countless others, for that matter) is not about book burning. That's playing into ideologically-motivated narratives about knowledge vs. religion and ignores the reality of textual transmission prior to movable type printing making the production of books relatively inexpensive. We've lost most of the texts from the ancient world not because they've been suppressed or deliberately destroyed, but because tended to be written on organic materials that do not stand the test of time. In a few parts of the world like Egypt, the hot, dry climate preserves some of these ancient manuscripts to varying degrees. But for the most part, ancient texts survive because there was interest in those texts sufficient for scribes to expend considerable effort in making new copies by hand as older copies decayed or wore out. In the ancient world, texts died not from suppression, but from decay combined with lack of interest or neglect.

If you want to talk about early Christian texts, the Didache is instructive. It's orthodox and never was suppressed. It's earlier than much—if not all—of the canonical Greek scriptures. However, the canonical scriptures overshadowed it and it became obscure, to the point where the only known complete copy today is a single 11th century manuscript that was found behind a bookshelf in a monastery in the 19th century.
It takes me 15-20 minutes just to switch my mind from "alert problem solving" mode to meditative state in sync with body - and get my breathing right.

I guess everyone is different, for me the practice was looking for guidance and then finding what works for me - one of the first things I had to let go was rigid time schedules, "THIS IS MY 15 MINUTE WINDOW FOR MEDIATETION LET ME SET AN ALARM SO I CAN GET BACK TO WORK" is not a very constructive attitute to regeneration and healing.

I suspect me saying above "Get results after more than a month" instead of hearing "I need to stick to this for a while" people hear "I will definitly get results in 1 month, here let me mark it on my calander [GET RESULTS HERE]" where it doesn't work like that. Maybe you need more healing than I did, maybe you need less. Maybe breathing is important because of how it intertwines with your exercise schedule (or lack thereof), or maybe you need silence or darkness. Maybe you need music. Maybe you need white noise.

The only common thread is that meditation is a personal journey, so listen to your body, try to avoid any preconcieved notions and expectations of results, timeframes and experiement with a few different things until you find what works for you...
The personal computers start as toys and tools of the hackers. I couldn't find any other way to create it. It was definitely without much grand planning.

Great points, since it’s in the cloud it’s no longer self contained. We are already in some hybrid works with extra dependencies.

And if that’s the case, why can’t the .py files live in the cloud too? The need for an interpreter didn’t go away, Microsoft is just hosting it for you.
Mass-energy equivalence:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass%E2%80%93energy_equivalenc...

E=mc^2
E=(m)(c^2)
E=(0)(c^2)
E=0

But that's for at-rest inertia. Photons are only very rarely if ever "at rest".

(Are photons "at relative rest" in Lagrangian points, accretion discs, superfluids, 0 Kelvin, and/or when created from just n-body gravity, etc?)

Energy-Momentum relation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy%E2%80%93momentum_relati... :

> [Energy-Momentum relation] is the extension of mass–energy equivalence for bodies or systems with non-zero momentum. It can be written as the following equation:

E^2 = (p^2)(c^2)+(m^2)(c^4)
E^2 = ppcc+(0)(c^4)
E = sqrt(ppcc)
E = sqrt((p^2)(c^2))

c is the speed of light in a vacuum; without superfluidity (which occurs in helium in deep space for example); and without nonlocal entanglement; and without loophole-free solutions to spacetime (quantum teleportation).

Anyways, further from "Energy-Momentum relation":

> The Dirac sea model, which was used to predict the existence of antimatter, is closely related to the energy–momentum relation

From "Dirac Sea" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirac_sea :

> The Dirac sea interpretation and the modern QFT interpretation are related by what may be thought of as a very simple Bogoliubov transformation, an identification between the creation and annihilation operators of two different free field theories.

> [...] Dirac sea theory has been displaced by quantum field theory, though they are mathematically compatible

SQG Superfluid Quantum Gravity says there needn't be antimatter; there is pressure and there are phases of matter in a varyingly Superfluidic cosmos. The Dirac wikipedia article also mentions SQG.

And further from "Energy-Momentum relation":

> The quantities E, p, E′, p′ are all related by a Lorentz transformation. The relation allows one to sidestep Lorentz transformations when determining only the magnitudes of the energy and momenta by equating the relations in the different frames

From the newly-updated fine-tuning guide:

> To fine-tune a model, you are required to provide at least 10 examples. We typically see clear improvements from fine-tuning on 50 to 100 training examples with gpt-3.5-turbo but the right number varies greatly based on the exact use case.

> We recommend starting with 50 well-crafted demonstrations and seeing if the model shows signs of improvement after fine-tuning. In some cases that may be sufficient, but even if the model is not yet production quality, clear improvements are a good sign that providing more data will continue to improve the model. No improvement suggests that you may need to rethink how to set up the task for the model or restructure the data before scaling beyond a limited example set.
And also, you do have influence, as one of the citizens by whose consent the government governs. Not so much with countries you aren't citizen of.

The only conclusion I can draw is that "astronomically good web design" primarily concerns itself with ensuring that no more than eight words can appear onscreen simultaneously.
> One thing though you will need to make any future employer comfortable with is that you're ok taking direction from someone else

I wonder if they meant something different than embarrassing (I'm thinking emasculating but that's too strong). I work for myself, I wouldn't be embarrassed to work at a company but I think I'd hate it - not taking direction, you have to do that when you work for yourself, but all the other nonsense that destroys your agency. That's what is hard imo about going back to a "real" job.

Freelance doing something (development, design, copywriting, etc) that I can charge at least $75/hour for. If you only need $3k per month, you only need to sell 2 hours a day (Mon-Fri).

$3000 a month

= $750 per week

= $150 per day

= 2 hours per day (or a single 10 hour day per week) @ $75/hour.

As a bonus, $75/hour isn't particularly high for many fields.

I used to have a number of good ones added to my RSS reader, but they have slowly cease to update. I could google for inspiration sites like that, but I know google will only give me listicle SEO spam.
In my experience, Apple doesn't like any standards it
doesn't control with an iron fist

I mean, on one hand, the Metal/Vulkan/OpenGL situation is unfortunate and I don't understand Apple's motivation there.

On the other hand I'm sitting here typing on a Mac with nothing but USB-C ports that is connected to half a dozen peripherals and a big ol' monitor over those standard ports using standard protocols.

In general I feel that Apple prefers open standards when they actually suffice. USB2 couldn't do a lot of the things that Lightning did, so they invented that. Now that USB-C exists, they embraced it immediately on the Mac and iPad but are unfortunately dragging their feet w.r.t. the iPhone.
aside from squatting on the existing DID name, this smells an awful lot like the related AT protocol; how does your effort differ?

I am amused that since

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McLibel_case

McDonald's has been a leader in "Corporate Social Responsibility" since that court case forced them to rebut (or attempt to rebut) every single claim made in that pamphlet.

If you compare it with its competitors on many issues McDonalds is rarely the worst, for instance, portion sizes at other restaurants like Applebees are much more "supersized". McDonalds did keep with styrofoam packaging long after most competitors had gone to "wax" papers but now we know those are loaded with dangerous PFAS.

Not to defend McDonalds but their prominence does mean people are very aware of the issues they have and thus they feel a lot of need for PR.

My RSS reader YOShInOn keeps statistics on what things the HN community finds interesting and one that surprises me a little is that it seems I can never get an upvote on anything about advanced plastic recycling technology such as chemical recycling to the monomer, making alloys of two plastics, biobased plastics, etc.
> Back to the annoyance, I know two people who like to think they're not attached to their device and leave it at home when they're out. But then when I'm visiting and they're out running an errand or something, their phones ding and ding and ding and there's nothing to do about it (since I'm not going to silence their phone for them...). I have lots of stories like this.

This would heavily annoy me too and is absolutely deserving of criticism. However I think that is a very different problem than having a phone that vibrates in your pocket that somebody occasionally feels because they're sitting next to you or holding your phone (my kids sometimes take pictures for example). The two might seem somewhat similar at a high-level, but the fact that one includes the phone being on the person and the other does not, that seems like a huge difference to me.

Show HN: Scribble with AI – Create social media creatives with AI
I've been working on a project that will create social media creatives from prompts. This will let users create social media posts quickly.
Let me give an example.

Suppose I want to make a post on "Give me 8 health benefits of Ginger", it gives me 8 health benefits in the form of images that I can post on my social media. Here's the output -> https://scribblewithai.com/create/?q=Give+me+8+health+benefi...

If you'd like to try it out with your own prompts you can signup and give it a try. No credit cards is required to get started.

I would love to have your feedback about this product. I am also looking for someone who might be interested in this project and is open to mentoring, so that I can learn to market this product and build a business around it.

You can reach me out at scribblewithai@gmail.com

Thanks!
> We cannot ignore photosynthesis outside of a lab as it is a factor that exists.

I apologize if this wasn't clear. It's an expression about energy potentials, and as such it's not just useful in a lab, it's an essential piece of information about the substance.

For example in the original context of this comment thread, a person asked whether there was a danger of people exhausting our atmospheric CO2 because they got too greedy with this technology - a question that can in fact not be answered meaningfully without talking about energy deltas. The fact that CO2 cannot be practically processed in a way that releases energy is the only pertinent information when talking about this.

You build up a reputation for being a reliable borrower of debts or a good/clean societal record and someone steals that identity to abuse it and leave you with the baggage. You report "Identity Theft" to regain that identity and reputation, not on behalf of the money banks lost to fraudsters, hence the name.

There are plenty of things wrong with the current credit identity system, the name of identity theft is either not one of them at all or near the bottom of the list.
I think it makes sense for the library of Congress to archive the Internet, but I think that should be independent of the Internet Archive.

We really should go back to requiring items that want copyright protection to send a copy to the library of Congress. That would mean that those interested in copyright protection (which limits the ability of the public to share and retain copies for posterity) to actively act to ensure they are available due posterity.
