The thing that annoys me is that you can ask it to do something specific but it does what it wants.

For example I had a massive sql query that was loads of statements unioned together, I said “for each statement remove this filter and add this filter” and it would go “certainly, here are the first four, I have used an example table name feel free to change it” then I’d say “can you do it for all the statements, not just the first four” and it would say “of course here you go” and just give me the first four but also makes them useless by changing the table name!

I’ve got great hopes that one day I can get it to help me shape the code in a way that the jetbrains ide’s can’t today - for those I have to choose from a set of available operations - I want to talk to it and get it to change the code in a set of operations that I choose!

One day maybe :)
Sure, but ideologically motivated reasoning will only provide "broken clock" predictions. What good forecasters would do with hard-to-predict events like the pandemic, the next recession or political revolution is to admit ignorance and revert to the base rate (e.g. once a century on average). Truly black swan events are things we don't even know we should try to predict.

An example of ideologically motivated reasoning would be "The US is about to collapse because Biden/Trump is president". Unfortunately many if not most people think like this, that's one reason why so few are good at forecasting according to the book.
An LLM can be trained to find relevant knowledge online. It doesn’t have to be trained on the entirety of all existing knowledge.
Yes, TVP is generally extremely biased and only presents the government's side of things. Similarly to TVN, another popular TV station in Poland, which is biased but interprets facts in favor of the opposition. It's just how things are in Poland, it's not too different from what you can find in the US.

However, TVP World (an branch of TVP publishing in English) is actually not too bad. It's still biased but not dumbed-down, I would say.

The management's way of thinking is: "Well, let's just pay for the peace of mind." Except that this famous peace of mind never comes, because the cloud gets more and more complex each year and it's hard to keep up. Heck, even Amazon can't keep up: for example, officially they depreciate bucket policies but internally they are using it for example in the Cloud Formation templates for the Control Tower. But now it's too late to go back as most of the internet is running on the three major public clouds. You need a lot of determination and a good plan to free oneself from vendor lock-in. In larger orgs it's practically impossible.

It's kind of unfortunate that Twitter has become so politicized that people will downvote you for pointing out that Twitter has bugs.

I suppose if it agrees with one's politics, it therefore cannot possibly have bugs, and if anyone reports a bug, that person is obviously just faking it for political points.
Can you define government intervention?

For example is it capitalist or socialist to have a national bank and currency? Should each private bank print their own currency?

When government provides employees protections against unfair dismissal we call that government intervention.

But we regularly prosecute and imprison employees for 'stealing intellectual property' at the taxpayer's expense, or enforse non-competes using the power of the state, and thats never called government intervention.

The way I see it, people who use term 'government intervention' are trying to have their cake and eat it.

If government should not intervene when Amazon pays no taxes and abuses its monopoly position, then it should also not expend taxpayer money to protect them from shoplifting.
Ability to filter out already watched entries would be a massive improvement.
We often have separate crimes for unsuccessful attempts to commit a crime ("inchoate offenses"), despite no direct harm having been done, which tend to result in less-severe punishments than for successful attempts. E.g. attempted murder is still sentenced pretty harshly, but only around half the length that an actual murder would get.

So I guess that the question is how much time successfully selling the secret would have gotten her.
In my case it was. Got an automatic flag on an work composed, performed, recorded, and released by the Air Force Band of the Pacific.

Turns out someone was re-selling it on media and the label had auto-filed all their holdings. So you'd get flagged on every usage.

The sergeant in charge of the correspondence for the band was annoyed but as YouTube is private there honestly wasn't anything they could do (other than write me a polite response to send on that I was correct). I did make them aware of it in the unlikely event someone else asks, though.

Annoyingly enough YouTube doesn't take down the automatic match even when it's a false claim from what I saw.

To my understanding, any kind of emulation layer or runtime can't leverage Rust's type system to achieve the cheap context switches and other benefits that define Theseus today. It seems to me that programs running on the emulation layer will essentially be conventional heavyweight processes. There are still benefits over conventional monolithic OSes, but not as significant.
Climate-change conversations feel like the most important topic on Hacker News. After reading all the comments I'm tempted to go back to the main page and look for something distracting, about emacs or Rust or some other vanishingly minor technology to divert my attention.

The biggest hacking challenge is shifting our collective behavior. How do we (let's just say we in the USA, because that's the culture(s) I know best, and we continue to do significant environmental harm) make changes so that we use far fewer resources per capita?

I call my political representatives now and then, and I do my small part (keeping the house temperature close to the outside temperature, as low as 59F or as high as 85F or so, anyway; I'm not the only occupant. Minimizing driving trips by maximizing appointments and errands, and living close to work. Minimizing travel- grudgingly flew to the Midwest from the PNW once for Christmas in the last three years, plus one family road trip in the same span, plus several shorter car trips- I consider these luxuries. Eating meat a few times a month. Not buying stuff for "retail therapy"- making do with what I have, and actively de-acquiring stuff & letting go of diverting hobbies so I can think more clearly and focus on what matters: the health of myself and my family, the growth and education of my child, and environmental health for all living beings. Volunteering with the local food shelf.), but I still feel like I could be doing more and I'm not sure how. So I look for answers, here on hn, in books, in the news, and in conversations.

I haven't slipped into doomerism or other denial; life is interesting, there is much out of my control, and to stay sane I try to operate within my control and not stress about the rest. I'm trying to expand my control to support the narrative I like: strong local communities thriving on the resources available to them, with some trade with cities but not dependency on trade, and plenty of land and sea that we're part of rather than in dominion over. Romantic? Sure, and I accept that life isn't easy and that I and every bleeding-edge-of-life thing will die. Why not go out with all my available senses full of a minimally-polluted world?

I grew up in a logged-off area in the Midwest. I live in a heavily logged area of the Pacific Northwest. In the forests nearby, forests only as old as me, there are massive stumps, reminders of what the forest use to be. Can we 8+ billion people have hundreds-year-old forests again?

If we are too numerous, how do we scale back our numbers without dystopia?

If some of us just use too much resources, how do we scale that back with just enough conflict, ideally without war?

How do we change our culture?
The magnetic material on both sides had a very practical reason to be workable in all kind of floppy drives.

For example the write/read-head in a C64 floppy was placed on the bottom, so the down side of the floppy got magnetized. But the head of the floppy drive from a Atari 800 was placed at the top, so the upper side got magnetized.

So basically, when a floppy was sold as 1S (single sided) this was pure marketing. :) At least for the most floppy drives.

There's also a second thing, the "index hole". On real 2S floppy there are 2, one for each side. But most of the drives didn't care about this index hole. So, this wasn't relevant for C64 users and such.
"Matters of fact" vs "matters of law" is a blurry distinction.

Amazon doesn't make their own AC units or generators, so it's still likely they would need external support for a case like this.

I remember it, I feel that focusing just on that portion of the quote is a cherry-picked view. There was more to the quote that showed a misunderstanding of the system, which, at least in my circles, caused a lot of the mockery:

Is this about concentrated synthetic vitamin C or about the natural form? From a chemistry perspective the same, but the natural one comes in a different "package" of other substances (vitamin C complex). I wonder if the effect is the same.
I'll accept that technicality
I agree with this, and suspect that if SiFive did get big enough they would start creating patented extensions as a defensive strategy.

Personally I'm more curious about RISC-V in tiny microcontrollers, and were I guiding semiconductor strategy I'd be way more concerned about ability to build embedded systems than GPU farms. The ecosystem to do the former can evolve into the latter, but skipping to the end is just a route to burn absolutely billions.

Chasing the Numbers: The Puzzle of AI Benchmarks
Older adults who regularly use the internet probably have more mental capacity.
It is possible to do either mindless or mentally stimulating things on the internet, and I doubt that just encouraging seniors to use the internet will reduce the risk of dementia. You could do a randomized-controlled trial where half of the subjects are given IPads or something similar and the other subjects are given the same amount of cash. I predict there will be no significant difference in outcomes.
Only a tiny fraction of people in my country even had a PC but somehow the Windows 95 launch was a MAJOR event, it was everywhere on the news. I don't think anybody managed to match that marketing campaign.
hey this nerd said in the license file I can't use his software in my bombs...welp better find some other software which supports my cause.

>They should have the right to restrict its use.

the reason why it's not recognized by FOSS is because the idea he's building is one on restrictions, one restriction will lead to another, to another and end up being discriminatory itself, then controlled by the same minded people on all topics.

I'd say more good than harm has been done by FOSS, and I'd rather go on the premise that my fellow humans will do good than harm, than sit around wasting time trying to fight the phantom user who will use it for the wrong purposes. (i wonder if this is written from his mac book pro)

>Many software licenses disallow use in a nuclear facility, for example.

why? nuclear power is a great asset! not that I'd hope nuclear facilities use some rando's open source code...but this is the start of the rabbit hole "restrictions" start to create

>I think many software developers would feel the same way.

hmm i doubt it! I don't care of my library is used to end the world, I hope its not... but if someone was going to make some world ending technology, i doubt my library is holding them back. So I won't waste precious seconds of my life thinking about it, nor will I be naive to think a license will stop them.

I feel like this is an activism akin to the people who sit in the middle of busy intersections about oil. The only people you will turn off are people who might have supported the cause.

>There are questions here about the rights of software authors

If I am so concerned about my rights being imposed on others, I would not use a FOSS license. These type of people so want to shoehorn their ideals onto FOSS that they are blinded by the fact that they can create their own thing... But they won't be cause it wont have the weight that FOSS does because "I think many software developers would feel the same way" is simply untrue. They are trying to leech on to the good work and good will of others for their own gain, becoming what they despise.
Nah, I'm doubting myself more here as time passes.

If it's meant for unattended booting, why/how is there a password?

This smells more and more like an extremely poorly thought out system that allowed a bug to compromise the system.
Why shouldn't a business get to decide what content they host on their platform? They're paying to keep that data hosted and the services up and maintained! Are you suggesting YouTube shouldn't have the right to refuse hosting someone's content?
Going by what I see on family Facebook posts, I'm not sure about this.
K3s is fine, but it was started on an older version of kubernetes, so there's a few places where K8s has solved an issue (like bootstrapping) that k3s had to solve already in a different way.

K0s is a new project I like that is similar to k3s in spirit. Microk8s is a snap version from canonical with some neat out of the box stuff (like the simplest GPU support); but again, only available as a snap.

Honestly though just use kubespray for production, it's fine
It's a tradeoff. You lower stability and increase earning potential (and stress).
Reminder that if you have any sort of finger or wrist pain, arthritis, RSI, etc the simplest fix you can make is to switch to a better keyboard layout like Dvorak. QWERTY was made to be unergonomic by design and with full intent of making your fingers travel further to type out common words to avoid adjacent keys from sticking if struck in close temporal proximity due to manufacturing limitations of the time.

I switch to Dvorak twenty years ago because I wrongly believed it would make me more productive (as if programming is limited by how fast you can type!) but stayed for the ergonomics. I should, by all rights, have terrible RSI due to how I abused my poor upper extremities in my youth but through the mercy of the lord and thanks to a miserable month or so of pecking at letters like a computer illiterate individual until I learned where the (unlabeled) Dvorak keys were, I have no real issues. On days where arthritis kicks in, typing isn’t an undue discomfort thanks to the sane layout of the keys.
React is "simple", too, in introductory tutorials where you build a todo-list app. Does Svelte stay simple as your constraints and needs become complex?
It depends on the quality of the data coming from openstreetmap and on my ability, in this case, to label the streets correctly.

https://github.com/mihaiolteanu/ulitza/blob/main/eponyms/ira...

Feel free to add/adjust it.

Yes, adding city names would be interesting. But it would also add tons of extra info to the file. Some countries have hundreds or even thousands of counts for a single name only.
Why? 3.x in 386 enhanced mode was practically the same design (well, maybe no ConfigMG) and people there would have no problem saying it was "DOS based".
Smaller operations usually need more manpower.
Easy to work around. Contract someone outside of the jurisdiction to provide a dataset, then it's up to them to deliver it to you. You "weren't aware" of the data source until people outside the organization starts shouting or the police starts asking questions, but the model "doesn't contain any of the data" so you continue shipping the model/product.

> Does anyone have more content about what makes Books3 so special relative to Bibliotik?

They are essentially the same content (that is, the documentation for the copy of books3 seoarately hosted in huggingface says that it is all of Bibliotik in plaintext form, presumably as of a particular point in time.)

> This is the kind of effort that could have been done anonymously

Sure, its something each group training an AI could do independently at greater aggregate cost until someone succeeds in taking the original source down, but not only would that be costlier, but it in would involve less transparency and comparability across model architecture, or at least required the transparent, comparable trained version to be different from the full version.
If everyone else runs Kubernetes and no one uses docker-compose you might be looking at a ton of overhead, e.g. ITSEC may still expect you to run all of the stuff they offer a helm chart for. There may be no easy way to get the level of access on a VM to install docker-compose in the first place. Might well be worth running a single-node cluster just to be able to use an existing platform.
These are the same, practically.

I for one hope it will cause a resurgence of brick and mortar retail. Too many things are only available sight-unseen from an Amazon-alike, and turn out to be crap, not as described, poorly made etc when they arrive.

Already return shipping is a pain in the ass, if it's a pain in the ass that also costs money, I will be done with Amazon for all products instead of just products prone to forgery - and with it will go my prime membership.

I have used Svelte, and I don't understand this take at all. The post is full of Svelte-specific constructs that you need to learn.
Vitamin E is fat soluble, which means that you can definitely take too much (unlike C for instance, which is water soluble). It can cause headaches, nausea, blood thinning and rarely even fatal bleeding. I suspect that's a much bigger reason to be careful with the quantity of fat-soluble vitamins you take.

But also note that vitamins aren't FDA regulated, and they're a complete grab bag in terms of quality and bioavailability.

Generally unless prescribed by a doctor for a specific condition or if you know your diet is lacking in a specific vitamin (like B complex for vegans), you get more than enough from your diet. [1]

I think you're being unfairly harsh calling the article "extremely poor" just because it goes off on a few tangents-- it's an article after all, not a homework assignment.

Ultimately, I went for the physical fighting. Refused military service and tried myself at competitive combat sprts (not very successfully).

In the end, ignoring the rare cases were the initially baddoes (tm) are clearly known, in most cases poor, young folks are forced to kill each other by rich and powerful old folks while everyone else is suffering. The average soldiers on both sides usually have more in common with eavh other than they have with theor respective leadership. That being said, and paraphrasing one of the alt right election ads I see round here, peace may actually require as much dead people as necessary in case beligerents are inwilling to end the war early. Or not even start one in the first place.
You can’t make an accusation like that based on “vague memory”. At least try to substantiate your claim.
I wonder if it has to do with the size of your hands? I have big hands and always preferred the Xbox controllers to DuelShocks because they felt better suited to my hand size.

I get what you mean about 3.x feeling forced, but 3.x->95 was a transition from rounded buttons to glorious sharp bevels everywhere. Then in Office 97 they started that business of hovering over buttons.
They seem to be positioning themselves as the "RISC-V Arm" equivalent. Of course there are significant differences, like they don't completely control the architecture (as Arm does). But Arm have made a decent business out of it, so SiFive should be able to do the same.

By the way StarFive were SiFive China until SiFive divested them (the split was a bit acrimonious).
This seems like a weird example considering girls play softball because for some reason they can't or don't want to play baseball, not even women's baseball.. which seems like they do play baseball 'like a girl' by playing softball.
