I think what you're missing is that a tiny minority of toxic users (as perceived from your viewpoint) can easily be perceived as a high concentration of harassment from those that are on the receiving end of abuse.

This asymmetry of harassment is a dynamic worth thinking about more broadly; for example, if only one in a thousand men cat-calls women, you might not even have any male friends that have ever cat-called, and yet that might mean a particularly attractive woman might pass a cat-caller many times per day. Small differences in the rate of cat-calling (1:1000 vs 1:2000) won't be detectable to you, but can represent a huge difference (once a day vs twice a day, say) to those sampling far more frequently from the distribution than you are.

More specifically to the thread here, the question is not whether HN is well moderated, or whether toxicity is quite low-frequency from your perspective. The relevant question is whether the base-rate of anti-trans harassment is higher than in the general population.

It's entirely possible (I think it's true) that people in this community are in general more civil to each other than on most of the internet, and I think the thoughtful moderation is a big part of that. But it's also possible (and I don't have any direct experience to claim whether it is or not, so this is just numbers to illustrate what's possible, not a claim of how things are) that at the tails of the distribution there's 10x more anti-trans harassment in the community too, and we'd simply not be in a good position to observe or measure it unless we were on the receiving end of it or auditing lots of comments very closely. Honestly, based on the tenor of responses when this specific topic comes up (quite different to the normal HN vibe IMO), that wouldn't surprise me either.

"stealing the nectar" is more like saying that you are stealing the webpages of websites.
Yeah, that's because they're designed to absorb the damage into internal stress and deformation to dissipate the force of the crash.

That force and momentum has to go somewhere and it's better to absorb it into the car seat and consider it a consumable than to transmit that force into the child it's meant to protect. The same thing applies for helmets. A motorcycle helmet is a consumable item and should be discarded after a crash as the internal foam structure will be deformed and could fail to properly absorb the impact forces in a subsequent crash.

Tangential: TIL (OK, I knew but had forgotten) that aerobic composting of organic material — e.g., kitchen food waste — produces significantly less methane (an especially-bad greenhouse gas) than just dumping the waste in a landfill where it degrades anaerobically and the lack of oxygen results in more methane. [0]

Which makes me feel better about scattering our daily coffee grounds onto the lawn and in the garden beds — the grounds will decompose aerobically and are reportedly good for the soil, and with the grounds scattered, the paper filters take up less space in our kitchen-counter composting bucket and bag. (Brewing coffee with a paper filter reduces the grounds' acidity, which can matter for some types of plant.) [1]

Relatedly: For $10 per month, residents of our little enclave city can have their kitchen food waste picked up curbside each week and taken to a local-ish composting facility. The pickup truck used to pick up the compost is gasoline-fueled, but it's a start, and it's far more convenient than DIY composting. We've been subscribing to that service for a couple of years and have found that we don't fill up trash bags to put out for curbside pickup as often, so there's a small win there as well. Maybe other locales will start to do likewise? [2]

I feel it's really problematic in a bureaucratic environment. AI won't have any compunction about making a false claim. But a bureaucrat has to stick their neck out to say, yeah no that's ridiculous.

Haven't listened, but I think I understand where Linden was coming from, even if it's unnecessarily harsh. The idea that "you can breathe this way and get this effect" can be true and can come from folk wisdom, but they ascribe wrong reasoning to it which makes it mysticism. The reasoning is what's "bullshit". It's like saying "I tie my shoes tight every morning to honor the shoe gods or else they'll untie my laces." Well actually, you're right to tie your laces tight, but only because that's how laces work on a physical level.

The chakras thing, or any other mystical model, is only a low-resolution model. It's useful to point you to a correct belief, but we have to be careful not to get too invested in wrong reasoning. Or else you end up with a system of beliefs which may be mostly wrong - ie, "If my X chakra does this for me, I am sure my Y chakra does that for me," - when what you may be looking for is a completely different phenomenon.

The thing that pisses me off about this guy and the normal folks that embrace the song is the lack of awareness and the down punching.

The first half of the song is more or less something that just about every working person can empathize with. We have to work harder for less and our representative government doesn’t represent us, let alone work for us. Brilliant, I agree.

Then it’s all downhill after that. Without missing a beat, it launches into the usual vicious demagoguery and tired North vs South rhetoric. The Rich Men Irrespective of Richmond _do not give a shit about you, me, or miners_ as long as the money flows. Here, we’re just peddling their usual indirection: it’s not the generations gross inequality of wealth and power or the exploitation, no it’s this welfare queen that’s holding you down. Despite, you know, said straw man having no power and being on the bottom end of a callous, engineered system that makes it almost impossible to crawl out from. Violently reacting to the symptoms while not looking at the cause.

As long we’re buying this trash, the dwindling middle class are shitting on the poor, our attention will be drawn from the folks that propagate this misery. Same as it’s been for the entirety of human civilization.

Every time a Republican celebrity or politician posts this song and a working class stiff likes or retweets it, a useful idiot is born.
Very interesting read, even for someone who has some exposure to these ideas as a beekeeper. A lot of it really comes down to personal theories and opinions.

I keep my bees as "treatment-free". I don't treat for mites. I haven't had anything like AFB, but that would require drastic measures. I leave on plenty of honey for the bees and try not to feed at all. I use foundationless frames. I want to have "survivor" stock, but that might take a few more years.

The average colony loss in the US is around 50% last time I looked. It seems most people have good years and bad years regardless of the management. I've had years when all, or nearly all, hives have survived. I've also had years where all, or nearly all, had died.

> In pop music we see sampling has increasingly become a major part of the art

As I understand it the reasons for the rise of sampling is exactly the opposite of what you argue here. Artists explicitly sample (with the legal paperwork) because it provides protection from claims that they copied portions of the song from elsewhere. Claims that you are much more likely to face if you instead try to create something on your own (and implicitly influenced by what you've heard and liked).

The easiest way to sidestep all of that is to explicitly focus on remixes, that and record every conversation and creative moment so that you can show it during discovery.

See for example the lawsuit over Ed Sheeran's Shape of You [0].

Your skepticism about the viability of enterprise-level applications built without heavy frontend frameworks reveals a narrow understanding of software history and architecture. Let's not forget that companies like Amazon, Google, and eBay built scalable, complex systems long before React or Angular were even conceived. Amazon's initial architecture was famously built on Perl, and Google's original frontend was simple HTML and JavaScript. eBay was initially built using Java Servlets and JSP, and it scaled to handle millions of transactions. These are not 'imaginary success stories'; they are well-documented cases that prove scalability is not solely the domain of modern frontend frameworks.

Your assertion that older frameworks 'became a mess at scale' is a sweeping generalization. Any technology can become a mess if not properly managed; that's not a failing of the technology but of the architecture and development practices. PHP, for instance, powers Wikipedia, one of the top-ten most visited websites in the world, and it handles this scale quite well.

The emergence of frontend frameworks was not solely because 'existing solutions did not scale'; it was also driven by the industry's evolving needs for richer user experiences and faster development cycles. These frameworks solve specific problems but come with their own trade-offs, including complexity and steep learning curves. To dismiss alternative approaches as unscalable without evidence is not just intellectually lazy; it's a disservice to the field of software engineering, which thrives on diverse solutions to complex problems.
Even that really requires some nuance. If most of your site is static with a small amount (in terms of data) dynamic content, it could easily be faster to split things up into 2 phases: load the static part and then do a single REST request to get the dynamic part for client side rendering. The first time the user ever visits your page, it will take a small hit compared to SSR, but in subsequent visits the browser can easily cache the static part so it only needs to query for cache coherence (which should be very cheap in terms of throughput) and obviously the REST query for the dynamic parts.

If you do SSR, the client is much more limited in terms of caching because the page contents is not constant. In my opinion, SSR is actually more for slow CPUs than for slow networks since you can make the network usage for client side rendering very efficient as well, but client side rendering will always be worse in terms of client CPU.
There are definitely annoyances, but there are workarounds too; you can add additional vdevs to expand the whole pool if you want, and data is striped across them; it even lets you mix and match different raids if you really want to for some reason.

There's some current work to add a disk to existing vdevs, and I think even a semi-working PR for it now: https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/pull/15022. Hopefully in theory that will make ZFS a little less frustrating.

> If a religious group is based on following the teachings of Jesus Christ, and claims to be Christian, I don't see how you could ever claim they're not without going full No-True-Scottsman.

"It depends on what the meaning of the word ¨is¨ is."

_Is_ the Catholic Church following the teachings of Jesus Christ? According to many Protestant churches, it is not.

(I'm ignoring for the moment that many Protestant churches don't define "Christian" as "following the teachings of Jesus Christ".)

Christianity isn't a membership club; individual churches usually are, but the religion as a whole is not. I can tell you who the Catholic Church recognizes as "Christian"; I can tell you who Protestant churches broadly recognize as "Christian"; I can tell you who the LDS and the Jehovah's Witnesses each recognize as "Christian"; they're not going to be the same.

And so I look at Daoism and I wonder, is there a chain of authorities all the way back to Laozi (Lao Tzu)? Is there a single, dominant sect with some/ many smaller sects? Are there multiple large, dominant sects? Who's defining what is and isn't Daoism?

Show HN: Frugal by NumexaHQ- Transparency, Control and Cost Optimisation
Hi HN! I am Marut, the co-founder of NumexaHQ (https://github.com/NumexaHQ/frugal). We are building an open source project for cost & resource optimisation for developers building application using LLMs, our goal is to build a platform agonstic AI powered tool.
Star us on Github - https://github.com/NumexaHQ/frugal
In the ever-steady realm of computing, where networking, storage, and compute have remained constant, a game-changing innovation has surfaced in recent years. These colossal models signify a monumental shift, offering developers the potential to unlock unprecedented functionalities within their applications. From generating diverse content to data classification and semantic connections, large AI models are opening up new horizons in software development.
However, there's a catch. Leveraging these models isn't a straightforward endeavour. Many developers lack expertise in machine learning engineering, and the scarcity of machine learning professionals compounds the challenge. For countless software engineers worldwide, obstacles abound, ranging from grappling with model hosting to handling unforeseen errors and adapting models as they evolve. The absence of user-friendly tools and clean abstractions for large models only adds another layer of complexity. The journey from concept to production-readiness can be frustratingly slow and intricate.
Equally crucial is the need for in-depth insights into our processes, particularly when things go awry. The entire procedure involves significant costs and resource drain. Identifying areas where optimisation is required becomes paramount in order to economise on both costs and resources. At Numexa, we're delving into extensive research papers focused on optimising costs and resources for Large Language Models (LLMOPs). Our team is committed to exploring innovative solutions, including the integration of vector databases and more. We're eager to engage in insightful and exciting discussions on this topic within our Discord community. Join us there for in-depth conversations! https://discord.gg/mVBMKVCv

Our work is an ongoing process, marked by continuous research and development. We eagerly anticipate receiving suggestions and feedback from the community to enhance and make it more user-friendly for everyone.
Unless you're doing AI, all your subsequent stock will be mutts anyways.
A recent popular science book I'd recommend is "Endless Forms: The Secret World of Wasps" by Seirian Sumner. It speaks to wasps' utility as pollinators, pest eaters and how bees and ants are descendants of wasps. After reading it I turned over a dirt dauber next and showed my kids the wasp larva with the separate chamber of immobilized but living spiders and other bugs the mother wasp had apportioned for the larva.

The fact that transformers were immediately applied to pretty successfully doing text to text with ChatGPT, Text to Image with Stable Diffusion, and audio to text with whisper. All blowing away any previous attempts in all of these modalities, and showing that you can pretty easily go between the modalities is proof to me that this is a big deal. I see how fast people are able to use LoRas to make the models do different things, I see how excited people are to use them and their sustained interest and experimentation, and I can not possibly over state how confident I am they will only grow in impactfulness as they are combined and tweaked and experimented with.

Yes but the point of this project is that it doesn't require you to share sensitive data with third parties.
We are experimenting in this area, as a way to provide a way for community managers to query their Discourse PG database using natural language.

Your product is very interesting. Maybe we can collaborate here, as Discourse is a standard Rails database schema on PostgreSQL and could be a good way to show your tool working in a real database.
Yes, this. I always nail this down before spending any real time or effort on the opportunity.

The same state TV where the war has been going great, mind you. Putin had to do this. But dramatizing it as anything but a weak leader having to consolidate control before being able--not willing, able--to retaliate is pure theatre.
