So many comments here are casual dismissals of the photographer’s style, and while I generally prefer a lighter touch in post-processing, there are some incredibly cool photos in here, some of which are products of interesting light and canopy effects.

I think the artistic decisions make some sense when you consider the purpose of a photo shoot like this. These photos are meant to communicate a story about a mysterious spy plane, and to appeal to a broad audience.

For better or worse, people absolutely eat up this art style, which is why I think many here have been conditioned to associate it with cheap digital filters so ubiquitous on social media. Photos of a famous spy plane can’t be seen as less cool than the latest movie franchise, and so I suspect that’s why the military chose to work with a photographer who works in this style.

Again, not my first choice, but there’s plenty to appreciate in the work, and some of those photos are not as manipulated as one might suspect, and are products of a camera capable of gathering a ton of light even at low exposures.
A mathematical assembly line, in a sense. How interesting.
Same discussion in Germany and I wouldn't say we have a strong (food) culture, surely not to the same level as France. This is simply protectionism by the food lobby, I know zero people who take offense at calling oat milk oat milk.
There's already turkey sausage, pork sausage, and "summer" sausage available at my local grocery. Why can't we add plant sausages?
Going to space still cannot outrun an exponential function. Extrapolating exponential growth always leads to catastrophe.

Imagine the sphere of a civilization expanding in space at some speed, in all directions. The volume of this sphere would equal time cubed (t^3) times some constant.

Now suppose this civilization has a magical power source that allows them to keep growing power consumption exponentially. So power consumption would equal 2^t (where time unit = one doubling time, 35 years in the case of 2% growth) times some constant.

2^t will always overtake t^3 no matter the constants, so power density of the sphere trends to infinity, so the civilization will cook itself in waste heat.
So how are people with mobility issues or medical quarantine situations supposed to get their food if there isn’t a way to reliably arrange for delivery people to bring it to (at least outside) their door? And yes, both of these circumstances have happened to me at times within the last few years, though fortunately not so far in a permanent way. Other people do have such limitations permanently.
Exactly. It's really fascinating that people view this as an ideological/religious thing. It might even seem that some treat RISC-V as some sort of a cult?

> CISC dogmatism

Besides the fact that your understanding of what CISC/RISC means seems to be stuck in the 90s and the distinction is pretty much irrelevant at this point, you do actually realize that ARM is a RISC architecture?

> blatantly refusing to accept simplicity has inherent value

For microcontrollers? Sure. For high-end/general purpose chips? RISC-V cores will have to implement many 'optional' extension to become competitive.
Ireland has a long, intereesting history in the tech space - before YC, there were a ton of startup incubation strategies occuring in silicon valley - and the irish national tech council or whatever they were called were luring tech companies to ireland... (recall Delorian Motor Cars)

Many FAANGS have built out there - and I can only assume that the laws re data in .ie are likely "bribable" and given its status in basically 5-eyes - I would assume ireland is a privacy nightmare when you get down to brass tacks.
I realize that they’re for a reason. But if I know it’s harder to lay someone off of the business climate changes, I’m going to be a lot less likely to hire a lot of people.

I would much rather get an offer for $250K a year, get laid off in two years than not be able to get a job or even get a job for $100K a year and have job security.

Agent of what? Information?
It's not what you need, it's what you want but just don't know it yet. Use Rust/WASM and you get a superior package manager in Cargo. Rust gets you a solid type system that's built in instead of an add-on like TypeScript or Flow, and there is no need for a complicated build pipeline with Babel and WebPack, just a single compile target. Overall, I find working with Rust/WASM to be a better developer experience the working with the NPM/Js ecosystem.
> Especially in languages like javascript you can do a lot with mocking frameworks and dependency orchestration hacking to make bad code work.

This is precisely why I do everything I can to block usage of Jest, and more generally, another reason we need to sunset CommonJS. People just abuse this stuff. There is a fine line in our craft where your tools need to hinder convenience, hence why we have much discussion around strongly-typed vs weakly-typed, why TypeScript has gained so much traction, etc.

Vast majority of 'business' stakeholders are going to exert downward pressure for the most convenient option, but the consequence isn't merely this or that quality of code design, but that subsequent generations of developer _have no chance_ of developing actual system design skills, evaluation of patterns, etc. And why should they? Use Jest to mock all the things, slap the 100% code coverage label on it, and start moving the next ticket to 'Done'.
Sounds like they should add a toggle in the app to get that extra service for extra payment.
According to the article, the "colors ... are, importantly, not added for dramatic effect — these photos and all aspects of them, are real."

What processing are you referring to?
No, three is just an arbitrary number for their example. The point is not the exact number of roles but the fact that the basic legal unit is the relationship, not the person. For instance a prince-bishop might in principle be subject to an archbishop as a bishop, subject to the Emperor as an imperial prince, subject to the King of Bohemia (who was in turn subject to the Emperor) as the holder of a secular fief, and part of the Polish nobility, all at once.
Yeah but that would be useful. Like being able to switch USB sockets on or off from software. Or lock them to a specific speed/bandwidth.
I just think that ไก่ is miles closer to Gai than Kai, that's all. Another hill would be that ปู is best written as bpuu/bpoo.

I don't really think it matters, no one is consistent, no transliteration covers all cases. Unless maybe ipa? (which no one uses to communicate anyway).
Yup that's the one. Also recommend checking out [dnd-kit](https://dndkit.com), which we may migrate to at a later date.

The fact that the GPUs quantity dropdown cannot go over 1,000 drives home the "GPU poor" point from the SemiAnalysis post. Meta alone has 16,000 GPUs. OpenAI's cluster from 2020 had 10,000 GPUs. If you're serious about foundation models development and research, you have to go work at one of these "GPU rich" companies.
It's more that this is close to the best design possible for this mission, it would take decades and lots of money to develop another aircraft that does the same thing that might not produce that much of an advantage. There are lots of designs that have been around for ages because they are effective and there is no reason to replace them. Even in the civilian world, there are lots of aircraft types that have been around for 50+ years because there is no real reason to get rid of them as long as they can be upgraded to the latest systems.

It's really only when an aircraft can no longer be upgraded or its mission no longer exists and can't be adapted easily for another one is when it's retired.

Funny how these brand words are used differently. On a bike tour I heard the Swiss contingent calling every sandwich cookie an 'Oreo'.
You could do that, but then you cut a whole mode of interaction between e.g. UK parents and their kids who study or live on the continent.

Either way this is a measure that (like many conservative talking points) sounds good on paper ("law and order"), but once it becomes reality it won't win you any prices, except negative ones.

Considering same person probably orders multiple times. You could just tell drivers to mark at their phone when they have for example parked. And then from there calculate average time it takes for them to be back at their cars. Intrusive to them, but could be fair metric.

Then it's probably a case for a complaint to your local consumer protection org. It's not about calling it "sausage" without a qualifier. To most people sausage only describes the shape and you need to read the ingredients anyway, but of course if it's "beef sausage" it shouldn't have pork and "vegan sausage" should indicate no animal products. I don't see how common sense should not prevail here?

Dark ages are a-coming. Seriously.

We are going to have an age of digital serfdom. You will use a device provided to you by some "benevolent" corporation. They will own every aspect of that device and you will only be allowed to drive it if you give them money (pay your access fee today!).

They will lock down most other avenues, general computing will be reserved for "corporate" use only, and while there will be a "free web", it will be fairly technical and user hostile, and the vast majority of marketplaces (ex: anything that touches money) will avoid it like the plague.

Yes. I understand your logic. But Truth and Facts are two different things.

We have no evidence that China has actual real capacity to mass produce those phones for mass demand.

As other comments say, it may well be chips that were manufactured before sanctions, or chips manufactured on low scale.

The second point is why Global Foundries dropped the chip race, and why TSMC is the global leader.

And under sanctions, I see no reason why China would suddenly become better at mass production than TSMC.

China has a long tradition of inneficiently throwing money at things, so their chips may also be on a very low yield wafers and heavily subsidized. That's not sustainable either
When I was a little boy, we didn't get food delivered to our cubes by Gammas. Instead, we could leave our cubes anytime we wanted. We'd go to places called "grocery stores" to buy food wasn't even cooked yet! Then we'd take our "groceries" back to our cube and cooked it ourself. Sometimes, we'd even invite the people in nearby cubes to eat it with us.
Fun fact: it's not allowed to call peanut butter "butter" for the same reason.

Has there ever been a public key sign-countersign encrypted tap method?

I.e. Authorized tap requestors have keys (law enforcement, intelligence) and sign a request (including timestamp), storing a copy for audit.

The approval system (courts, FISA) validates that request, countersigns if they approve (including timestamp), storing a copy for audit.

The system owners (messaging services, etc.) then validate both signatures and provide the requested tap information, creating a tap record (including content scope and timestamp), storing a copy for audit.

Ideally, then all audit logs get publicly published, albeit redacted as needed for case purposes.

Part of the central issue is deciding "Who should be responsible for security?" Imho, if governments want to mandate a scheme like this, it sure as shit shouldn't be the tech companies. The government should have to manage its own keys, or deal with consequences of leaking them (while allowing the tech companies to retain independent records of individual requests).

As much as it pains me to say this... this wouldn't be the worst use case for a blockchain...

Putting aside the obvious Goodhart's Law implication productivity isn't just based off of the "components" be they human or otherwise but also the fundamental goals which control the end product.

If I was an utterly mad billionaire who believed that I could hire top software talent and have them attempt to store physical objects in data. Not 'encode the schematics' or even 'encode the complete physical details' but such that it was possible to generate some hidden combination. Such an endevour would not be productive but the fault doesn't lie in the employees.
Or they are paid hourly or are regular employees, and taking longer won't affect their income at all. Maybe boss will yell a bit if they take too long.
i actually think fostering should have a higher barrier because foster kids usually come from difficult situations and eventually go back to their parents and they need to be raised and taken care of in a way that enables that. for adoption it should be more like: you are capable to be parents, here is your kid. off you go.

Some differences-

There's lots of times in my work when I will read minified JS code to debug a stack trace. Using the "Pretty Print" option it's not too bad. So I'm glad it's there.

Also transparency is not just about humans reading it, it's also about automatic scanning of the source, and in some cases automatic modification of the JS (for browser extensions or code analysis or etc). Those are useful things that are drastically harder using WASM.
Let's revisit this excerpt from the article, which would mitigate many of these comments about how "workers should take pride in their work" and "do their job" and similar. They are doing their jobs.

> "According to Rappi and iFood, which control over 90% of Brazil’s app delivery market, drivers do not need to make doorstep deliveries. On paper, representatives from both companies told Rest of World, their rules already require delivery workers to only go as far as a street-level point of contact, from which customers are asked to collect their meals."

> "A common worry among drivers is that their cycles, motorbikes, or bags might be stolen if left unattended. Most buildings don’t allow them to park inside, workers told Rest of World, forcing them to leave their vehicles and delivery bags on the street. The bags frequently contain two or three orders as the apps assign them multiple deliveries along the same route. To avoid having the other orders stolen, the bags must also go up with the drivers."
> 'The' flop is a misnomer because it's almost always the multiply-and-accumulate instruction: X = A + B * C. Which... Is two operations per instruction (per shader/SIMD lane). Eeehhh whatever. Who cares about these details?

If FMA is supported, it can either be counted as one or two operations, depending on the rule of the benchmark involved or the marketing of the processor. The marketing specification of a processor's theoretical peak performance sometimes counts a single-instruction FMA as two operations. On the other hand, for the purpose of code profiling, counting FMA as one operation is more realistic... As you said, who cares about these details?

The soft part of a fruit or a plant that you eat is also called flesh.

The soft part of a nut that you eat from inside the shell that you is called nutmeat.

Leaking national secrets needs to be punished to deter people from doing it. You can do it, but you must also be willing to defend your actions in a court. This seems necessary, as an organisation can't operate without keeping some secrets.

I think the punishment should depend on what was leaked. If the contents were a clear injustice, then there should be no negative consequences for the leaker. But they must still stand up for their decision in court. What is certainly not acceptable is trying to flee from consequences. This should merit a punishment, which is what happened here.
I thought most people in the US were proud of their firearm handling professionalism which of course includes not brandishing, threatening or murdering people.

Why did you think this?
A romanization that’s good for writing an entire language accurately is usually not going to come up with spellings that lead an English speaker to a good initial approximation for exactly this reason.

I would argue that since food names are usually pronounced by non-speakers who will be unfamiliar with the romanization (or often don’t even know which language it’s coming from), the latter sort of transliteration is more useful. Egg foo young, not egg fuyung, egg furong, or daan fuyung.

I don't use food delivery because there's nothing I would want that I could have delivered. But it takes me close to half an hour to drive out and pick something up. If I had good delivery options I would probably use them now and then.

(If I lived in a city though and had options within a 5 minute walk, I'd probably just pick up takeout myself.) Honestly, I usually have something in the freezer if I just want something quick but sometimes I don't feel like thinking about cooking even something simple.
Hey!

As many of you asked for, we've finally made the repository public and will continue developing it in public from now on.

This took us some time, but you can now read our announcement for more details[0].

Thanks everybody for the support so far, and I welcome you all to interact with the repo, join the discussion, or even contribute.

A possibly noteworthy detail as it's been discussed on HN here a bunch, we've settled with the DCO[1] for contributions.

Also, happy to answer any questions!

Of course you could use argo to do what I'm describing, but the overhead of checking in code is 1. clunky for dynamic environments (it would require constantly committing to some repo) and 2. not well suited for provisioning dynamically from a local machine.

So by virtue of the way argo works it encourages pets, because its setup is not very dynamic. Like you said, in environments when you want to be able to roll back, that is its strength. But my point I was making above is that really you want that for only one environment: prod when it all boils down to it. Every other environment not being a dynamic branch off of prod just creates maintenance and state issues down the line
Buying a low end Apple product is a terrible idea. They cannot be upgraded. So you'll just be stuck with 8GB of RAM and 256GB internal storage... meaning lots of problems with getting all the dozen dongles and external devices you have to attach to it staying working. And don't even think about trying to open Photoshop and a browser.

The only decent apple computers start at about $2k and up.

> Alright - what if I take Stable Diffusion and further train it on my own art, and then use that to generate things?

Operative word there: "further". If it's already trained on everyone else's input, then without that there wouldn't even be a Stable Diffusion for you to "further train on your own art", so YTF should you get sole ownership of the sum of it all?

What you're saying is like "Alright - what if I take Linux and add in my own code, and then sell that as closed source?" Nope, it's already GPLed, and so should AIs trained on public data be.
It isn't, but rewrites are always percieved as being more dangerous than incremental change. So you get systems with 50 years of incremental change on them.
