> 35% nuclear, 55% renewable and 15% fossil fuels

Clearly these numbers add up to 105% because if renewables become cheaper it will cause the total installed generating capacity to increase relative to the alternative and definitely not because I can't count to 100.

He's still on the same line - network operators will kill the innovation what-so-ever.
Speaking of the evils of internet-reliant devices and bad engineering: those MIT washing machines actually went down for two weeks. MIT changed the authentication configuration of their wireless network, the software couldn't re-connect, and all hell broke loose. They had to turn on some emergency operating mode that allowed students to use them for free, without any app.
That's actually an excellent explanation, now the comment I answered to starts to make sense.
Show HN: LiteLLM - Open source library A/B test LLMs in Production
Hello Hacker News,

Stop relying on benchmarks and easily test LLMs in production.
Try it here: https://admin.litellm.ai/

LiteLLM allows you to simplify calling any LLM as a drop in replacement for gpt-3.5-turbo

We're launching `completion_with_split_tests` to easily A/B test all LLMs.

Example usage - 1 function:
completion_with_split_tests(

models={
"claude-2": 0.4,
"gpt-3.5-turbo": 0.6
},

messages=messages,

temperature=temperature

)

For each completion call we allow you to:

- Control/Modify LLM configs (prompt, temperature, max_tokens etc without needing to edit code)

- Easily swap in/out 100+ LLMs without redeploying code

- View Input/Outputs for each LLM on our UI

- Retry requests with an alternate LLM

Happy completion()!
Order placed! Thanks for the reference.

Jobs was ahead of his time, and he pushed the vision of HTML5 and offline apps. He was resistant to app stores, I suspect, because he wanted maximum freedom for users in the future rather than the corporatized, schlock-filled, freedom restricting, walled garden the post-Jobs Apple brought.

You see his vision as a big miss. I see his vision as evidence of good taste and also an eventuality.

Absolutely, that contextualization can be so useful even if some deem it fluffy. Also no one is obligated to read every single word of a book, if you don't want the anecdotes and case studies, you can skip them! They are helpful for the rest of us.
Good to see others are thinking similar - I've implemented a lot of what this is discussing into DoctorGPT: https://github.com/FeatureBaseDB/DoctorGPT. FeatureBase is great for storing sets of things and vectors, and combining graphs/keyterms to filter the vector space.

We're close to releasing a hosted tool that will take plain text and convert it to semantic graphs and embeddings, which will allow users to use this basic approach for searching their document fragments, across many documents. Should be out in a few weeks.
"Didn't happen to me anecdotally so must be fake news" is not a compelling argument.

Also to say it couldn't happen at tech companies is pretty bold. There's nothing special about tech companies. They can hire incompetent managers just as well as other companies.
I find that ChatGPT 3.5 and Claude are worse writers than I am, so they’re on good for content suggestions and organization. On a sentence by sentence basis they tend to make things worse.
Well, when you engage in speculation about the future, you're bound to be wrong most of the time. We can have fun now at his lack of insight, but, it's been almost 17 years, so maybe he can be forgiven. We all make mistakes, but if we do it on the internet, it's going to be there forever, thanks to archive.org. So kids, let that be a lesson!
> The peaceful path would have been to leave Ukraine alone and keep talking to Putin.

Not necessarily leaving it alone, but making it into a buffer state where no superpower would be able to exert more influence than the other. If something like that becomes enshrined in their constitution, the legal framework for keeping the country safe and neutral would be in place and everyone would profit, including Ukrainians.

Now that ship has sailed and this became a no-win scenario. Russia will fight to the last Ukrainian for Crimea because it just can't afford losing Sevastopol.

Congratulations to all involved.
There was some fancy 6 inch or so Nokia PDA from around that time that was supposed to be amazing. It had all the good hacker features - it ran Linux, it had driver support, you could ssh from it, etc. I remember turning it on and seeing kernel printk logs scrolling, followed by the plain X cross-thatch, and then some home grown window manager where you had to use a stylus to move the mouse cursor to click on stuff. That kinda summed up Nokia for me, developing 80s tech in the 2000s.
India’s current development strategy is unsustainable. There is large scale migration to a handful of major cities while the interior of the country gets hollowed out. There are so many cities with millions of residents and their population is only increasing.

The worst part is that we don’t even know what the population distribution is like now because the census hasn’t taken place since 2011.

India needs far more cities and it needs to distribute its population across a wider geographical region.

<Ultimately the best way of measuring programmer productivity is by the assessments of the programmers on the team. >

Maybe ... Productivity itself is difficult to define. Different people will value aspects of the work differently

At one Internet Advertising company I worked for, the founder had written most of the original code. Written in the late 1990s, it was Perl, JavaScript, HTML, and SQL jumbled together. Completely ignoring the notion of 'separation of concerns'. Huge amount of code duplication. Source code control? Phhht! Nary a test in sight. Ran programs as root to work around permission problems. Self modifying code ... you betcha. He worked right on the production servers. He could and would push out a feature the same day a customer asked for it. VERY quick to make the customers happy. The company was being bought out at the time I came on board. Pocketed his millions, headed down the road, yay for him.

My own take is that the company would never have 'made it', if a software team had been hired to 'do it properly'.

After his departure, as we rewrote our code base to 'professional' standards, much time was spent refactoring that produced few or no new features. How productive was that? A very complex question.

As a digression, I sometimes found his original code easier to maintain that the stuff done 'the right way' because there WAS no 'separation of concerns'. I didn't have to hunt in a different part of the source tree for where something was done. It was all 'right there'. YMMV.

In the end, 'productivity' is way more subjective that we'd like.
What is the 1 day of overhead? That's sounds a lot per week.
Imagine a university publishing an article with the following phrase:

Blackness encourages blacks to reject policies designed to help ${some group} and ${some political target} because of animosity toward whites as well as being unaware that ${some group} include a great many black people.

That university would be burned at the stake for being racist neocolonialists.

What's good for the goose is good for the gander - any time an 'academic' starts about 'whiteness' she should be called out for being just the racist stereotype she claims to want to fight. She is a racist, pure and simple, and racists are not welcome. No matter how many circumreferential 'studies' she will cite, no matter how many other 'academics' she has on her side, let the facts speak for themselves.

where do you live (country)? I am in the USA and was able to get prescribed/diag in 1 meeting.
Just my take, but I think that if you care how you scored or what the scoring criteria are you are missing the point. This "quiz" is just a guided meditation on what LLMs are better and worse at and how that interacts with our expectations. I found it to be very thought-provoking and I learned a few things. I have no idea how I "scored".
> People have often indicated we would have consolidated on iPhone-like devices in Apple’s absence, but I’m not convinced.

Yeah, android was busy developing a platform, and they even had some vision (unusual for that industry) because of the Danger team. Yet they were shocked by the iPhone and basically restarted — luckily before having demoed anything publicly.
Because it turned out Lisp is the language that comes most natural to me and I'm most productive with.

For a deep technical dive into the architecture of Windows NT 3.1, I highly recommend the book "Inside Windows NT", the very first edition, by Helen Custer. She had extensive access to the development team, including key architects, during development, and the book was published at the same time as Windows NT 3.1 was released, if I remember correctly.

One of the most enjoyable books of its kind I've ever read.

"Nuclear waste" is only a problem because we don't build new reactor designs that use the "waste" of existing reactors as fuel. One of the best arguments for building new reactors is to get rid of it so nobody has to try to store it for thousands of years like a chump.

VMs were the (main) reason actually! I run Fedora on the host, but I write/maintain/package software for different distros and architectures, so having a VM for each target is really handy. I also like to have a VM dedicated to apps/tasks that I want to segregate from the main system, so I end up with quite a few VMs and several of which I want to have running concurrently.

Another reason was to enable me to hack with performance optimizations like mounting freqent read/write files into memory (tmpfs). Putting Chrome's cache there for example can be a noticeable increase in performance.

Another reason was just for the sheer badassness of having so much RAM

This entire thread was in response to police stealing in the US, and someone responded referencing communists. Given they context, they were clearly talking about Marxism. The guy you responded to explicitly mentioned that. And then you go off on some other interpretation of the same words, clearly misinterpreting what they posted to argue some other point.

> To get there, she said, farmland owners need to be taxed at a higher rate, and we need to do away with the American notion that people can do whatever they want on their private property:

Keep in mind that a lot of the history/explanation is flat out wrong or trying to take inspiration from the 1619 Project - farms get all sorts of regulatory carve-outs because a) they still control huge swaths of land and huge parts of the economy of most of the states b) and increases in food prices would be a political disaster for everyone else.

Yes, it's kind of a myth that farmers are numerous, poor, destitute, etc. But the article is literally begging the question of why don't we just impose more cost on farming, and the answer is so obvious without needing to delve into a fraught debunking.

Nice story. It's unfortunately really hard for higher management to see something like this. I guess it's on the middle manager to convince upper management of this.

Unfortunately in my current experience my manager is not at all like Tim.
Some Hyundai hybrids and PHEVs have this (I saw it in the original Ioniq). It's a button you press that temporarily charges the 12V battery through the high-voltage system rather than being always enabled, but it seems like a great idea.

You have to use gdb unless you are using windows unless there is another debugger for linux that I'm not aware of.

Watched the video and you pretty much have everything mentioned in it with just an lsp, compiler flags and a command that runs your program with a debugger. The only example that wasn't caught with just that was the p[3] example but that was caught by valgrind which is also something I have a command setup for.

Really the only thing I was actually jealous of was at the very end of the video and it wasn't the hot reloading stuff, that's easy if you split your programs from the platform its running on. The ONLY thing was that the vs debugger lets you explore variables with a visual interface instead of having to write commands to do it. I've used it on windows and even though its usually busted and variables do not always update they sometimes do. At the very least just viewing the hiearchy of the structure is useful so that you can easily add the value you want to the watch window which usually does work.

Gmerc, your comment is borderline abusive.

What is happening in other countries has no bearing on whether Singapore is a police state or not, it is what Singapore does that qualifies it. While the term “police state” might be too strong for Singapore, here is why it might apply:

1) Internal Security Act - The ability to detain anyone deemed as a “national security threat” indefinitely without trial. Lee Kuan Yew famously argued against it before independence. After independence, he retained it and went on use it against political opponents. (Who do you think are the new colonial overlords telling others how to behave, what to say or what to think?)
2) Lack of civil and political rights to act as check and balances against overreach by the state. Eg. Widespread and intrusive surveillance of much of the country, especially in the poorer areas; extensive power of the police to investigate with little oversight - TraceTogether data debacle; politically motivated persecution of dissidents and journalists etc.
3) Control and manipulation of the local media landscape in order to achieve/support their goals.

Top Russian rocket scientist dies from ‘mushroom poisoning’
Good to know, I thought it was deterministic, especially because of all the comments on other articles where people wrote that the author was crazy for getting a different answer to the same question.
The underlying concept here is that religious-like faith/belief has a utilitarian value regardless of the actual truth or verifiability of religious claims, and that this utilitarian value can be ported over the non-religious secular society by introducing 'faith in science' and in particular 'awe of science'.

I think this a profoundly misguided notion that is highly detrimental to the actual practice of scientific investigation and discovery, and it's a bit telling that none of the promoters of this concept, characteristic of the 'New Atheism' are working scientists in any active field.

The problem is that our scientific understanding of the world is continually evolving and developing as new discoveries are made and old concepts are overturned. Clearly, developing a sense of faith in some scientific paradigm as the basis of some utilitarian 'psychological benefits of belief' project will lead to grief if that scientific view is upset by new data. The notion that one's cherished views of reality may be overturned by new knowledge (particularly if that leads to things like a loss of funding in some field) is already hard enough for working scientists to come to grips with (e.g. plate tectonics etc.) without adding in the fact that psychological despair may be induced by such new revelations.

Furthermore, science has very little to say about morality or justice, other than providing factual forensic data which people may use in a legal context. For example, all science has to say about cannibalism is that eating brain tissue from one's own species may lead to degenerative prion diseases. Genocide of human populations, well, scientifically there's nothing wrong with that, it's just natural selection and competition for resources. Religion, regardless of the factual reality of it or not, is probably a somewhat better guide to the kinds of moral behavior, although in modern society it's all codified in legal structures.

I suppose the secular view is that science and law are the twin pillars of modern civilization, but the notion that 'faith' in such structures has some necessary psychological benefit smells of a manipulative controlling approach to human relations. If people really want something supportive to believe in, they're better off sticking to their favorite literary/religious texts, even if they're just products of human imagination.

I don't think I'm "dismissing" anything. I replied to a comment that made what I think is an incorrect point about how the product was received at release. It's too easy to take a successful product and mythologize its origins, when in fact history was complicated and in a lot of ways the early iPhone kinda sucked.

Again, there were existing app ecosystems on Symbian/Nokia and Windows, and none of that stuff, or anything like it, ran on an iPhone. You couldn't even get your email on the device outside of a handful of open source web clients (its inability to run the gmail client was a big hole, heavily reported at the time).
I liked Ballmer's "500 dollars for a phone" reaction the most. He looked scared enough to the point of having something warm and moist in his underwear.

Personally, I don't like iPhones very much but all I needed to know was observe other people. And many they were truly awed at the time. Even nvidia's APX 2500 looked like something wrapped in a hurry.
