This deployment of drones is not about spying on your house. Per former cop and police reform advocate Peter Moskos, it’s about policing an upcoming carnival of 100,000 people where someone gets shot almost every year:

Potential for abuse exists, but the same can be said of tasers or guns. HN users making this about themselves and their “airspace” do not seem to understand the reality of making large, often violent events like J’Ouvert safe. Here is what happened at a similar Caribbean cultural festival in London last month: 8 people stabbed, an officer sexually assaulted, and 73 other assaults on police officers. It’d be dereliction of duty if police left drones on the table:

If you like this, I like corridor crew on YouTube. Here's one discussing how effects in Dune, old and new, were done, some of which were pretty surprising. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHPkdMGI6D4
I remember being very surprised when at the end of the film, a friend pointed out that the Tabaxi were practical effects, and not CGI.

There’s a lot of CGI in the film, and it was nice seeing a bunch of practical effects as well.
I'm surprised it lasted this long or at the very least changed the name by now.

The operative issue is likely that there is no agreement here. Hashicorp did not provide those statements as part of the agreement, and you were not presented those terms as part of the agreement, so why would they be construed as part of the agreement?

Just as a corollary, do you think it would still be actually binding if Hashicorp put punitive clauses in there? E.g. "violations of any of these terms will be subject to a 10% of revenue penalty". Are you still bound by that, even though it wasn't part of the agreement?

> Otherwise everyone could just make and sign contracts and go back to them claiming that their lawyers were mistaken in their interpretations of them, no?

That's kind of the point of the formal agreements. By putting it in the agreement, their lawyers are saying "this text says what we intend" and by agreeing to it you're saying "the terms in this text are acceptable", and then the whole thing is immutable unless both parties come to an agreement again.

That's the special space contracts enable. Everyone knows that they're proposing or agreeing to legally binding obligations and can treat it thusly. Slapping random bits of text around and saying they're legally binding is a mess because who knows if you've seen it, or when they'll change it, and whether you'll see any updates to it before you agree to another contract.

It's either in the contract and binding, or not in the contract and not legally binding. Hashicorp can choose to bind themselves however they want, but the only entity enforcing those terms is Hashicorp itself.

Doesn't really matter what the content is as long as the sequences of tokens make sense. That's the goal: predict the next token given the previous N tokens.

You… uhh… know that JSX was literally invented as React's own HTML-like DSL, right? And that TypeScript is not "actual JS", right?

Just food for thought: HTML can exist and provide tremendous value on the frontend without JS. JS on the frontend without HTML is… not quite as useful. Be careful about which technology you want to be the central player.

Watch Karpathy's recent lectures. They're gold. Start here[1] with micrograd[2]. It doesn't use linear algebra/matrices to start, but the principles are the same. The matrix multiplication is how the weights of the connections between neurons and the input values are combined (to form an activation value that then may lead to that neuron "firing" or not, depending on whether it passes some threshold function). We use matrices to model the connections between neurons - each row is a connection, and each column is a weight corresponding to an input.

Really nice implementation! And it's so cool to be able to do this offline. The embeddings aren't quite there yet.

One trick that might be helpful is to embed only the defining (usually the first) sentence or paragraph of the Wikipedia article, rather than the whole document -- not clear to me which portion you're using now.

My own site, OneLook, has had a similar feature (https://onelook.com/thesaurus/) since '03 that lets you find words and concepts by description. It was a pure reverse-dictionary search back when I started, but over the past two decades I've explored word embeddings, then sentence embeddings, and more recently LLMs. Nowadays it uses GPT to generate some guesses for inputs that it can't answer itself.

LLMs are so much better than earlier methods at this task, it's taken some of the wind out of my sails on improving this aspect of OneLook. I frequently hear from people for whom reverse-definition lookups are the main reason they use ChatGPT!

> Your comment, and the way people tend to utilize these reviews, clearly conflates the concept of "not enough evidence" with "evidence against".

When there's plenty of opportunity to search for and find evidence, and multiple researchers do try, and repeatedly fail to find evidence (or they have mild "success" every one try out of ten, by pure luck, see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_dredging), that strongly suggests that there's no real effect.

Especially when you know that these people don't only do this with garlic, but with every single piece of spice, herb and other plant material you can imagine. Yes, some of them are effective; contrary to what many people believe (and you can read this in this thread, too), most, if not all our medicine is of "natural" (plant or animal) origin. Yet, at the same time, most "natural" stuff is not medicine. Why cling to the ones we can't prove effective however we try, when there are many more candidates?

"In hight school your math teacher may have started a treatment of linear algebra by making you solve a system of linear equations, at which point you very sensibly zoned out because you knew you’d go on to program computers and never have to solve a system of linear equations again (don’t worry, I won’t be talking much about them here)."

No offense but I stopped reading there. Too many software developers have this weird superiority complex when it comes to math. When they struggle with math, I've seen devs criticize everything from naming conventions to curricula to it being "useless". A lot of them seem unwilling to acknowledge that math is sometimes... simply hard.

If your attitude to math is "I don't need any of this useless stuff, so I'll zone out", then I kindly suggest you first at least try to learn Linear algebra for mathematicians first.
