> Married heterosexual motherhood in America, especially in the past two years, is a game no one wins,” wrote Amy Shearn in one of many New York Times op-eds

The absolute state of the intelligentsia.
Agreed. In fact I wrote a (very) small library to help deal with it.

Dark matter cannot do anything one needs it to do.

There are very few assumptions in the cold dark matter paradigm (you can describe them all with just a few parameters). Meanwhile, there are many different observational probes of dark matter, and they all have to agree with the predictions of the theory.

There are many ways that one could seek to falsify the cold dark matter paradigm. The thing is, so far, the paradigm has passed all the tests people can think of.

> It's quite simply an Abrahamic religion based around following the teachings of Jesus Christ.

First off, that's not true.

Second, your argument is tautological: Daoism is a path based around following the tenets of the Dao; Confucianism is a path based around following the teachings of Confucius; Buddhism is a path based around following the teachings of Buddha.

Even if it were true, it wouldn't mean anything.

> There are plenty of different doctrines and interpretations but you can tell what is and isn't a Christian church.

Are Mormons Christian? Lots of Christians don't think so.

Are Catholics Christian? Lots of Christians don't think so (despite the Roman Catholic Church being the largest Christian church).

You're assuming agreement that does not exist.

> Same thing with Daoism. Daoism is both a religion and a philosophy with very specific teachings and traditions.

Christianity does _not_ have specific teachings and traditions.

Catholicism has very specific teachings and traditions. It's a huge church and they've got tons of groups and committees and panels to write books about what Real Christians™ must believe and how they must behave. And they kick out people who are vocal about disobeying.

But of course, non-Catholic churches have different teachings and traditions. Not that they agree, either. If you wander around the Southern US, you'll find tons of Christian churches that are each just a few dozen people, and their teachings and traditions can be unique.

So if Daoism is like Christianity, then there isn't agreement.

If Daoism has specific teachings and traditions, then how is that maintained? Who decides (or decided) what those teachings and traditions are?

Right. However those boys typically had Anatolian ancestry for the same aforementioned reasons - mine appears to have come via west Africa, and for a kid who’s neither us nor them, being a slave mercenary is a decent alternative.
Taiwan/China, for the first few decades of their respective existences, were considered internal resistance by both the PRC (China) and the ROC (Taiwan), with the US backing the ROC. While sentiments about that are obviously pretty different in Taiwan today (although not in China!), I also think that the US/Taiwan relationship is still meaningfully different from, say, the US/UK relationship, and I think it counts as "propping up" to a greater extent than simply being a NATO member.

}

func foo() error {

> For example, if one would want to use an LLM to answer questions regarding a large, private knowledge base, would it make sense to fine-tune a model on this knowledge base?

I initially also thought this would be one of the best use cases for fine-tuning (teaching the model new data), but I've seen quite a few people say fine-tuning should not be used to teach the model new data, but more like new formatting and style of response. This blog post seems to concur.

I do wonder how OpenAI does fine-tuning. I'm guessing it doesn't use Lora.
> important stuff, that a lot of people rely on, and for which there will be severe consequences if it is built wrong.

Sure, if you're working on medical devices or software controllers for devices in vehicles or nuclear reactors or whatever, but, as a fraction of the software industry, that's tiny. I don't have hard numbers on this, but you can look at popularity of programming languages as a proxy. Most software "engineers" do JavaScript or Python, two languages you would never ever use for such things.

Most software is a form of entertainment with a small amount of usefulness sprinkled in, or doing things that could, in principle, be done with paperwork.
It’s what annoys me of German darling test.de (Stiftung Warentest, they were set up as a trust by the government to avoid any kind of outside influence, customers pay for their data), their reviews are complete black boxes, no idea why anything was highly rated and there is no real background.

I far prefer ETM-Testmagazin.de, they are a for-profit company and also sell their tests, but they actually give you all their testing & measurement data while still giving recommendations and textual reviews. Maybe they are scummy, and I can’t tell, but considering that I find stiftung warentest mostly useless, they are still far superior.
If something has been around for 50 years and nothing has been able to displace it, that is usually because it's pretty good.

There was a pretty good open source development pipeline targeting the flash runtime in the later years. But the design tools and runtime were indeed always closed. Had adobe open sourced that runtime things might have turned out differently. It could have been the sqlite of animation.
I’m sure they appreciate the work but Apple has internal documentation on their chips. It’s not like they make a black box and forget how they designed them when it comes to writing software for them.
As long as we're arguing about words, let's discuss the word "should".

"Should" is often used as a way to express advice, as in: "if you are a programmer and want to make more money, you should call yourself an engineer".

The HN title seems to be using a different definition of "should", or is perhaps expressing advice to those among us who don't care about money.

New York to Paris in 90 Minutes. Can This Startup Make It Happen?
Yeah, the entire premise of the article is based on the idea that this seems obvious - yet it isn't really. What's your definition of criminal? You have to be pretty naive to believe that every rule the government has written is morally justified. Is it even possible to find a software developer who didn't pirate things at one point? Or try drugs?
Watching Australia (which I'm assuming you're talking about here) from afar just screw up over and over again... Was just sad to watch.

Those cruise ship issues were totally predictable and could have been prevented. But sadly NSW was run by corrupt idiots.

The only state to take it very seriously was also the state with the premiere that got the most abuse because of it. (VIC and Andrews)

I'm an Aussie living in Norway and we did a mostly fantastic job here. Up until the election, the government changed, and the new gov decided to just do the opposite of everything the previous one did, and open up. The cases spiked and for the first time since the start we had real problems. Vaccine rollouts changed, everything went backwards..

Interesting Sweden, who had one of the worst COVID responses, had a change of government too... They decided to start taking it seriously and we had this situation where prior to this, Sweden always had surging numbers, and Norway didn't.. to trading places.
The article says "high power motorcycle engines" but I've heard of this happening on pretty low power motors as well.
Our languages mostly do not have the syntax needed to express higher abstractions. You could create one via meta files or special comment notation perhaps, but it doesn't exist yet (outside of class diagram generators).

A big part of this problem is the "code-model gap".
Calling someone a "criminal" means he was found guilty, in a court of law, of violating a such-and-such law. What laws were violated here? If the claim is someone is a criminal, the burden of proof is on you to prove it because it's a significant claim. Simply finding someone disagreeable does not make him a criminal.

Furthermore, if you prefer judging software by who wrote them rather than what they are, then I have no confidence that your judgments will be valuable. I'm pretty sure there was a Latin phrase (or something similar) for this behaviour, judging a work by the merits of its creator rather than its own.

EDIT: Didn't realize this was presumably submitted by the author himself. Rephrasing as appropriate with that in mind.
Good start! As noted it is a little broken on iOS/safari, also test it in lighthouse for color accessibility.
> If I recall correctly - Go AI.

I see.

Well, that's too generic to even be searchable.

> They used a simple regular pattern and the system failed to beat the human. It didn't [learn] from this.

Anything written like that would struggle against an amateur.

The machine learning based Go AI don't do that, and do beat humans.

> All such systems use a set of rules (whether specific or pattern based or mathematically based - there is some form of logic involved, even when using probabilistic functions), you and I can make choices based on illogical decisions - irrational decisions if you like. No computational system is capable of irrational decisions, the decisions may be surprising but of you look at the code then that option was always there somewhere, It cannot take a path that does not exist.
We can create a completely new path not previously available.

Whatever standard I use for logical or illogical decisions, wherever I put that line, humans and AI seem to be on the same side.

We have electrical impulses flowing though messy networks, crossing tiny chemical barriers where they can be influenced by neurotransmitters; to me, that's not different enough from information flowing through an artificial neural network with weights and biases that have been automatically modified through feedback after winning and losing millions of games to say that the machine "isn't learning" — or that humans and machines aren't on the same side of "logical", at the fundamental lowest level we can't violate chemistry any more than transistors can violate physics, at the highest level the real logic of each can be random.

AI are inhuman, certainly, but still learning.

…

Just to check, you are aware that the weights and biases of an artificial neural network are basically never set by humans? That this process has to be automated?
> Traditional engineers are regulated, certified, and subject to apprenticeship and continuing education. Engineering claims an explicit responsibility to public safety and reliability, even if it doesn’t always deliver.

The author probably don't know that the Chinese government actually demands similar terms too: you are not allow to sell a piece of software unless the software passes a few certifications, and you must hire enough employees graduated for few government recognized majors/professions in order to start a tech company that's allowed to request those certifications. So I guess China could be a dream country for the author of the article. Welcome BTW.

Of course, the entire article was written by someone who has a half-knowledge on what's actually going on, resulted in a flamewere. The mentioning of data breaches can't cover the fact that most software (or digital control systems in general) worked very well, you don't hear from it because there are no people complaining.

It can be very problematic if one judges things only based on headlines, because the resulted reasoning might collapse as soon as someone else applies the same logic elsewhere. Say, why a well-engineered dam, built by fully certified engineers with their state-of-the-art disciplinary knowledge, meticulous calculation plus simulation and rigorous construction still failed and caused many lives? Are dam engineers not engineers?

The dam engineers would probably come out with some excuses such as real-world complexity, and they would be damn right. Handling a dynamic system is hard, and software engineering is full of it.
Why do you assume the Chinese goods on which the West is currently dependant are "e-waste"? This goes far beyond electronics. Walk into any supermarket in the world, and most non-food products -- from toothbrushes to the cheapest cooking utensils -- are made in China.
Anyone with an interesting example to share using these steps?
Spin Control lives on as part of Instruments, which can be configured to collect a tailspin whenever an app hangs.

Also, crime is whatever the law defines as such. Smoking weed is a crime, and data collection and processing is not.

But I’m pleasantly surprised the author puts the responsibility for abandoning the tech on users rather than governments.

> Background noise in general disappears this week because YouTube, Apple Music, and our Echo are all banned—as are Netflix, Spotify, and Hulu, because they rely on AWS and the Google Cloud to get their content to users.

Now, if you eliminate AWS, Azure and Google Cloud from your life, you could turn on the Airplane mode as well as the public cloud powers up a large part of today's web, either directly or as a dependency. But there is a ton of difference between using Google's services and visiting a website powered by GCP.
There's a difference between remembering, and moving on.

It's got nothing to do with "moral standing" it just perpetuates a victim mentality. People and countries need to move on.

That doesn't mean you need to forget. You need to remember, learn the lessons etc.

None of my examples have been forgotten, all have been moved on from.
While I appreciate the author's argument against being stalked, or giving information to criminals, they ignore the core culprit: information-as-a-service. Most importantly, the author presents a "No True Scotsman" argument around who should develop software and why.
'Mark' and his 'stalking' system may have optimized it, but he sure didn't invent it. The author conveniently forgets to mention that information is a two-way steet. Trust is a hard problem.

> Every reasonable person would act against stalkers like Mark and his cronies. Let’s apply this logic to the digital realm.

The author assumes that a digital persona matches their physical persona. This is not the case. Plenty of people curate content that does not match their personal beliefs, purely for economic benefit. Are they criminals?

>If you’re a criminal, I will not use any application you write.

Author probably has not considered that these writings may result in a defamation case against them, if someone views them as a valuable prospect. If the ruling works against them, does that make them a criminal immediately unworthy of their engineering contribution? If so, a number of reverse engineers who skirt these laws every day would like to have a word with the author.
I don't find such a review very informative. Especially if it's a popular product sold 10000s times. Even quality things sometimes break. Does it have stupid buttons that are hard to press? That's worse

> Instead of one row after the next, pixels in memory follow a spiral-like curve.

This is called a z-order curve[1, 2]. It makes texture mapping and mipmapping significantly more cache-friendly than the usual x-y ordering, because these operations are often performed in tiles of 2^n size.

I'd say it's more a fractal pattern than spiral-like, to be precise.

Fortnine recently recommended grabbing a used Sonim phone (https://www.sonimtech.com/) to use as a motorcycle mounted phone. They're designed for EMS workers, so they're waterproof and have mappable physical buttons so you can use key functions with gloves on.
until they give it a codename you have to go back to looking up anyway ;)
Try/catch/finally is in the language, its just called panic/defer/recover, where panic works like throw, every function works like try, defer works like a combination of a nonselective catch that rethrows by default and finally, and recover disables the rethrows-by-default behavior, while also being the only way to interrogate the panic to see if you should do that.
I think you probably don't know emacs if you think no one should find it useful.
I highly recommend you give it a go. It may not become your main IDE, but I can guarantee that you'll find it very useful for a multitude of tasks, like a lighter text editor, quick REPL, RSS feed reader, binary file reader, org mode (like an organizer of tasks/notes/literal programming etc), magit (the amazing git client), grepping and navigating easily between search result files... and so many other things.
What the hell is going on with data?
This is peak virtue signaling. It's a hysterical piece full of exaggeration. Its sole purpose is to make readers who agree feel good, and otherwise change nobody's mind. The strawman argument is "nobody who likes stalking would use big tech, right???", which is so laughably bad that it seems more likely that this piece was written by someone satirizing anti-big tech attitudes than an actual believer.
It's also the reflect on the value part which slows down things. It could be improved but it's hard to do that without breaking interface. It's so widely used that a major bump wouldn't that useful.
I would be curious how they could possibly estimate that, can you link to where they describe their methods for determining a criminal transaction?

Western Australia surely - full state border lockdown from the get go up until near 80% of the state population had two vaccinations.

W.Australia had near zero cases "in the wild" - the 'outbreaks' such as they were centred about border quarantine issues, ships, quarantine hotels etc and caused relatively (wrt the rest of the world) few hospitalisations and limited mask wearing curfews.

For the bulk of the two year period W.Australia was maskless and COVID free.

If you just change the first "curl" to also be localhost:8000, this will be cleared up.
