> I guess I’m confused why people wouldn’t want this.
> Visiting the U.S. I’m honestly bamboozled that people seem to want…

It is very parochial to believe that everyone will want the same things as you.

Some people want open fields of wildflowers, farmland, pastures, creeks, shady forests, mountain paths, and perhaps a few neighbors. You can’t get any of that in an urban area. Yes, you might find parks and shaded avenues in a nice urban area, but those are a far cry from real nature.

Many others want to live in a suburban area. They want everything within 15 minutes walk of them to be a school, or a church, or a neighbor’s house. They want to sit in the back yard with a cold drink on a hot day and hear children playing near by, with the drone of a lawn mower in the distance. They want to build a deck there in the back yard, and invite their friends over for dinner on that deck. They want to plant an oak tree when they move in, and one day hang a rope swing from it for their grandchildren to swing on.

For these people, driving to a grocery store and parking in parking lots are just things they put up with in order to get what they really want.

Fair enough

It used specific types of DSLs as evidence but I don’t see a narrowing of the claim itself? Where are you getting that?

What makes me sad, as I posted in a top-level comment, is that I read this exact same rationale 20 years go, by Steve Yegge, and yet we are still having the same stupid debate in programming about whether we should use DSLs and then the DSL grows and grows and, lo and behold, it's Turing-complete, but its ergonomics are dire and its tooling non-existant. And it's not like this is some niche part of the ecosystem - it's how most people deploy infrastructure.

What I despise is seeing the same problems come up again and again, and never seeing good solutions to them, jsut the same mistakes, repeated. Programming is, truly, terrible. Just a load of slaves building the Pyramids.
Rivos hasn't announced anything. There's several other companies we know are working on processors but haven't announced a thing.
That would work, in that it would allow one to continue decreasing the loss, but I wouldn't say that it would work "fine". A model trained with restarts always performs worse than a model trained for the same duration without restarts.

> I didn't see an obvious open-source tool that lets you dig into PDF internals

That’s a matter of the toolset. I program C#, and I have good experience with that open source library: https://www.nuget.org/packages/iTextSharp-LGPL/ It’s a decade old by now, but PDF ain’t exactly a new format. That library is not terribly bad for many practical use cases. Particularly good when you only need to create the documents as opposed to editing them, because for that use case you’d want to use an old version of the format anyway, for optimal compatibility.
FTA: “More than 90% of this figure originated from transactions that did not happen through the App Store, meaning that these amounts accrued solely to developers and other third parties, and that Apple collected no commission on them.”
So the parent comment was referencing the steroid era in the 90s like the sibling comment mentions but you also do still see that in the (presumably) cleaner game today. While upper 90s fastballs used to be rare, they're pretty common now. More and more pitchers are throwing pitches with more and more spin. Personally, I think the game is in a good place especially with the pace of play changes but many (most?) also believe that this arms race, so to speak, is really driving the prevalence of arm injuries.

How exactly does the existence of search take audiences away?

Or do you mean the 15-word clickbait headline blurb takes audiences away? If your news story isn't worth reading after reading the headline, it's probably not worth reading.
It is fraud. As a consumer, I want companies to be required to state facts, not words that inspire feelings-like a superior product.
I’m not talking about that kind of philosophy, I mean their development philosophies, the kind of things that would directly impact the directions they take the product in.
Well, you wouldn’t.

I earn <$110k with relaxed and flexible working conditions (but still 37 hours a week). I worked for $170k, had to travel, worked 50+ hours, and “felt ownership” without having any. I understand if their comp range corresponds to an extra day’s worth of salary to some.

I just couldn’t get $170k without either doing something smarter or harder. The extra money wasn’t worth never being home or present.
It is. But nobody listens. Ever.
Well, yes, but it doesn't make him wrong either. We shouldn't allow companies to put whatever the hell they want on their labels when it's patently false. We benefit as a society when labels are truthful and not deceptive.
How is tolerating misleading labeling, "puffery," and other forms of untrue advertising, anything more than tolerating parasites who want to make money by tricking people?

"If we lie enough, and everyone else does it to, nobody will have the time to check us on our bullshit" seems like a perfect example of non-productive economic activity that just adds additional costs to every transaction at no net positive social or economic gain.

From the article:

I've had to deal with my fair share of frivolous lawsuits (the ADA is a well meaning, poorly implemented set of rules).

However, in this case, I wouldn't classify Sheehan's work as being parasitic. Companies are obviously being misleading and deceitful in order to sell more of their product. It makes sense to me that someone is out there holding their feet to the fire and forces them accurately market what they make.
OK, we've put Python library up there.
If it forces Blue Diamond to either use a smokehouse as they claim, or stop lying (and perhaps be disrupted by a competitor that can make a bona fide claim to using a smokehouse), then this would produce value (assuming smokehouse almonds are better to some people).

It's not just a Python library though: it's also a CLI tool.

Wholeheartedly agreed.

A retrospective’s documentation is essentially the smallest opaque piece of what an investigation would draw upon working backward. It happens fairly quickly after the causal factor is introduced and is likely to be completed before the software actually causes harm in production at a scale like this.

The results of a retrospective could make for a good source for recommendations, but only if it covered the causal factors.

Ask HN: What do you think about Nintendo phone competing with iPhone/Android?
What do you think about the next iteration of the Nintendo handheld likely being a phone with controller ports? I imagine it as basically a current iPhone/Android except with dual ports on each short side for controllers to plug in.

I think Nintendo is the only company that could compete and introduce its own app store/walled garden. Chinese companies, even Samsung, cannot have their own walled garden because nobody wants to specialize for them, as they offer no unique benefits.

I assume it would succeed with the general public due to AAA Nintendo games being supported, but I also think Nintendo would have the opportunity to introduce a blue sea for Japanese business software to be introduced.

I also think that SteamDeck, with its desktop support, shows the interest in something that can replace desktop/laptops[0]. Also, I think this could compete in the desktop area like Microsoft Continuum[1].

It also introduces a new vector, that is non-American, for surveillance, except in this case it would be via Japan.

I really love this kind of thinking and explanation - it may not be correct per se, but it's the TYPE of thinking we need.

Rather than fluffy repetitions of the slogans of in-groups, it's an attempt to explore long term impacts using fundamental scientific principles, none of which are individually too complex.

And if we don't agree with the 2% annual energy growth rate for 1000 years then that's fine, we can fiddle the numbers for what we believe, and the same analysis can be valuable even if it ends up supporting a different conclusion.

I'm interested by the language style as well, it reads like they put it through a filter to generate "simple English" as a deliberate choice.

Let's not get carried away here. These newspaper businesses choose to upload their content to the open web. By making and distributing public links, they are accepting the fact that others will do the same. They didn't take anything that wasn't on the table.

While the article makes good observations, this would appear to be a major oversight by leading research labs if they could have just kept the gas pedal down on simpler models for longer and gotten better performance. This is HackerNews – can we get someone from OpenAI, DeepMind, or MetaAI to respond and justify why cutting off the smaller models at a lower total compute budget is justified?
The law is essentially a tax on links. His characterization of it is accurate and is the same as any in depth analysis I’ve seen. If you want a really good, independent analysis read Michael Geist, who is a law professor at Ottawa.

They do understand this. It's typically politically infeasible to set rates appropriately - risk is often correlated with income, which is correlated with skin color. So a concentrated risk in an area makes the whole area uninsurable, unless you want to be called racist.

Or: newspapers opted into the Google + Facebook ecosystem because it was beneficial for them to do so, customers choose to use Google and Facebook because they provide tangible user benefits, and competition is just a click away yet most newspapers fail to deliver a competitive value prop to visit/subscribe directly compared to the traffic they get from Google/Facebook. The reality is that the newspapers derive great value from Google/Facebook traffic (lets them get more ad money + subscribers) whereas the value of the newspapers to Google/Facebook is marginal as they are just more content in a feed/aggregator. There's no racket going on here just incentives/products/reality all around. If anything the Canadian government's asks are the real racket/shakedown.

Bootcamps are a great feeder channel for bodyshops.

Students learn the latest $FRAMEWORK and get offered entry roles in companies, often affiliated with the bootcamp. Some students are smart (and fortunate) enough to land roles elsewhere.

The courses are both fast paced and shallow enough that students learn the bare minimum to use the tech stack.

As others have mentioned, I have also interviewed many bootcampers who struggle with the fundamentals.

Curious to know what value you've seen out of these clusters. In my experience k means clustering was very lackluster. Having to define the number of clusters was a big pain point too.

You almost certainly want a graph like structure (overlapping communities rather than clusters).

I really enjoyed this write up . Reminds me of projects in NYC like Urban Archive [0], at a microscopic level

I really wish this kind of snooping was incentivized more. It’s a great way to engage your community. Something I think many younger people, and especially those working remotely, can miss. (Myself included). Asking specifically “why” something exists is a great heuristic.

Side note—-if you’re ever traveling in Europe, try to find a Henry Holt Walks Series book for whatever city you’re in. They’re older (usually late 90s to early 00s), but they go into meticulous historical and narrative detail of overlooked sections/buildings/plaques/etc of otherwise very touristic cities. Will undoubtedly send you into a deep and labyrinthine rabbit hole

How about you quote from either the article or the court case.

Its entirely reasonable to assume that a product that contains in its name "with Olive Oil" contains Olive Oil. The fact that it doesn't to me is _Fraud_; the company is attempting to get revenue (additional sales) by deceiving a consumer about the product.

I think there is a good ole 2x2 grid here.

The socially positive nature of the industry on one axis and the degree of strong completion on the other.

So we can have say Retail food stores, sainsbury's and tesco, that deliver mostly positive things (food!) in a highly competitive manner.

We can also see positive industries (water / sewage) that have terrible competitive landscapes (fundamentally monopolies/ utilities). These need to be regulated differently - ie with hands firmly
clasped round the throat of all
participants.

Bad industries and bad competition looks like the illegal drugs trade (I personally think the cut throat nature of retail
stores is as literal cut throat as we want. When the completion stops focusing on making the product better and starts focusing on killing the other stores employees we are not seeing improved markets

And your example was bad industry / good competition- cigarettes are a good example here.

I think it's worth adding a third dimension to the grid - time and future shape. The retail food model is a good one but over time we can see the effect on out of town car parks, the urbanisation vs wqlkability etc etc. Intervening in how stores advertise the price of milk won't help this. But neither will "nerd harder" - there is no solution to "this business model if continued will go the wrong way" that does not involve chnaging the business model - ie charging for car parking space or something.

Anyway, it struck me as a useful simple graph. As business models move to different parts of grid they get regulated differently, and adding time/dependencies in means we can shape the results.

But in the end I am arguing for smart proactive interventionist government.

I don't think it's obvious at all. "Smokehouse" can simply refer to an added smokey flavor. I don't think it's _necessarily_ implied that their product _has_ to be smoked according to any particular method, or it's falsely advertised. 11 lawsuits for that?

>At the budget meeting, elderly people were speaking up on how they cannot afford the tax increase.

Property taxes are the only taxes that, by definition, the owner of the property can afford. The elderly people only mean that they "can't afford" their property taxes without changing their lifestyle in any way. To be fair to them, it's certainly challenging and uncomfortable, however, this is a consequence of their own making. None of them were complaining during the 30 years of their property values were going up as supply became more and more stifled.
