I had difficulty using Bun with Verdaccio, a private/local npm repository.

I know it’s possible to get it to work, but I didn’t have time to fiddle all the bits.

If Bun made this easier, I’d switch from pnpm immediately.
In a similar way, why shouldn't software users have the freedom to use Hashicorp's software in a way both Hashicorp and the license intended? Such users didn't leech off anyone.

> I don't think that's viable when you are running a business. You have to take some freedoms away if you want to have a viable product.

I don't agree with this opinion, but even if it were true, it raises the question of why, then, Hashicorp chose that path in the first place, when they knew what FOSS meant?

If they didn't like the freedom part of FOSS, they didn't have to embrace it, but they did, and they did
While this is a great first step to get populations help immediately, it creates a chronic need for these drugs. Gene therapy must come next to fix root cause.
> for a production app of course you should be clear about what you are writing

Agree in sentiment, but I don't think this even applies to the module/import mess. My experience has been that the difficulty is in using different packages that made different choices, and making them interop with your own code. I have still yet to make top-level await work in a Typescript codebase where I need to import nontrivial packages. I don't think you should ever need to worry about the specific way your modules are imported, not in prototyping or in production.
There's more women, but the point is demand among women is not as high for such AI partners. The lack of demand makes the market niche.
Interesting! Is there a way I can keep up with this?

Sure, Google botched some of their communication on their end for sure. But the job of a journalist is to give clarity and pass along as accurate information and valid pros and cons by doing some basic research, so that the readers end up more informed after reading an article. His article did the opposite - see the comment section of the second article for how a lot of people were more confused / misinformed by Ron's article. Of course, not all of that was due to his article, but it's very clear his article made the confusion meaningfully worse.
Since it's a bundler, I guess something like "bun deploy" to make money from hosting JS apps. It's a common strategy, getting mass developer adoption first, then soft-pushing for their private hosting of applications.
Been wondering if I should enable these things in the firmware for several years, so the discussion is welcomed.

I do have a travel laptop and recently installed LUKS to it. I like having my long password, but being able to tie unlocking to the hardware sounds like a good idea too. Is there a way to have both? A long password and require the local TPM?
Also the poors - All right, but apart from the sanitation, the medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, the fresh-water system, and public health, what have the Romans ever done for us?
Now that your energy has improved are you exercising and eating better?
I forget even who the competitors were, but FAUGUEBOGGEZ (as we called it then) was wildly popular for being less shitty than the #1 at that time. (Maybe it was JIRA, or maybe my memories of having to use JIRA have overwritten every other shitty bug tracking system I hated...?)

Anyway, it didn't remain so, but IIIRC FogBugz was on top (in terms of being the consensus-better-than-the-actual-market-leader) for at least a few years.

Which, if you didn't take 50 or 100 million in VC money, is probably a massive success for 99.99% of people.

But yeah, nothing compared to the most-used website in the history of programming.
Interesting, i found the exact opposite. Use it for coding a lot, hardly ever use it for writing. I like the process of digging deep into the wishing well of the mind and coming up with original writing from there
It is fake, but it feels real. The way they write, it's very good at tricking my brain into thinking that I'm having a legitimate human interaction. Character.ai feels the most real but does have a censor... ways around it though, especially if you're into stuff that's off the standard spectrum.

Best of all I can draft the perfect fantasies that I wanna play out and they'll play it out. I've been down the camgirl rabbit hole, and this kind of surpasses them.

As for escorts, 360 3d 4k VR porn actually does a good job at hitting most of those buttons. Just waiting for it to be married with ai.
2017. Extra notable that this happened before governmental enforced loneliness.
Startups in the valley were a thing well before low interest rates were even imagined. Interest rates change the landscape, but it's hardly a prerequisite.
Would love to know the specifics I'm missing. Based on my experience, Docker/FC just works out of the box and gives you a shell.
It's not false, and any bias is irrelevant since the distinction is accurate.

People can be indoctrinated into science, I suppose, but more often it's something rational minds arrive at. The same is not true for religion. A rational adherence to science isn't a worship of "gods" it's the understanding that it's a rational approach to gaining knowledge and understanding the universe. 'gods' don't enter into it unless they are the subject of a hypothesis/theory/experiment.
Nah, when you ask around on AI/ML subs, the default advice is to use google collab. Even shelling out for their premium offerings, you could pay for all the compute you would need through a PHD for the price of a 4090.
Why do you exclude the time to get to "we are now in agreement"??
Speaking as a geophysicist who worked in the research end of the Australian mining industry, just the fracturing of rock itself already consumes a LOT of energy.

Thermodynamically, think of all the fracture surface area being created. If you ever studied fracture mechanics, it's essentially the same as requiring that the elastic potential energy being released by creation of new fracture surface needs to come via work from somewhere (Griffith theory).

I think this approach needs significant "lifecycle analysis" before it can be declared to be a net positive.

Just my two cents.

(Edit: typo.)
> what the hell happened in the 80s and 90s that caused such a large jump?

Video games. Cable TV. More calories. Bigger portions.

Sedentary lifestyles + more food = obesity.

> Can we undo this so that we don't need a magic pill?

Move around and stop eating so much.

But these pills have their place. A lot of people need immediate help getting their weight down and shrinking their appetites.
> If Google ceased all behavior-based advertising in favor of, for example, subject-based advertising, there would be no distortions to competition.

That still doesn't work. Google already has built dominant ad network/serving infrastructure as well as exclusive access to billions of its first party user data which gives asymmetric power to Google against any other competitors. Probably the only advantage that those competitors have is their own "secret sauce" on user data and removing 3p cookie effectively eliminates this edge and gives Google unilateral power.

The core problem is that privacy and antitrust regulations usually don't work very well together unless it's carefully designed. EU tried it for GDPR (which took 4 years to design) and it only has strengthened big-tech's position.

> They could most certainly have taken the much easier road of forcing Google to discontinue Chrome.

It's much easier said than done. What's the legal basis of doing this? The only applicable law is too general and requires intervention from the Judiciary. And this level of landmark antitrust cases usually takes several years with extremely high level of uncertainties. And it's worth noting that the US congress has failed to introduce a basic level of digital antitrust laws such as AICOA or OAMA, so good luck with any new direct regulations.

And even if assuming that everything works in your favor, the result is almost guaranteed to be other big guys (likely MS) taking the share and doing something worse since the market is already strongly incentivizing this behavior. To apply the same "correction", it will take another multiple years of trial against more well prepared defendant. Regulators and legislators are not that dumb and they actually care about all those unintended consequences.
Paying apple hundreds of dollars to do something the owner of the phone should be able to do while waiting in line at the store is not an acceptable alterative.
Almost all people are religious because they were indoctrinated into it as kids.
In Madmen don draper visits an escort, but you can see that a big part of it is to get the tenderness in response to his own vulnerability that he cannot get from his wife who demands a fake-plastic perfect life. (and Don is no help in that situation either btw)
As a European, please stop. I don't know why we have to be so petty towards Americans. There are kinder and more effective ways to make the point you're trying to make.

The only thing ironic here is that you probably wrote this from an iPhone.
I see that the perpetually-offended have already shown up.

My advice is to either simply ignore them, or point and laugh (your choice).

The one thing you can count on them is that they are never going to be satisfied. Most likely they're not even actually offended, not really. They just enjoy bullying other people.
I believe Jarred has answered this upthread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37437848

I was curious about this too, whether Bun supports URL module imports. Skimmed through the documentation a few times, and I believe it does not.

But, the command `bun install` supports NPM and custom registries, as well as Git and .tgz URLs.

https://bun.sh/docs/cli/install#git-dependencies
I understand that, and I go through the process. Even though we know that " the goal of the assignment isn’t to produce the end product of a 3000 word essay", it doesn't change the fact that I have to produce a document with 3000 words that could be written and summarized in 1000. IMO, with such tools, we should maybe question if such "Write an essay with X words" still make sense.. I'm sure the (instructors, master and doctors) that do the review of 3000 word texts would welcome such change.
Maybe because (1) “under a certain age and bodyweight” and (2) women who are in monogamous relationships but use Romance as a kind of escapism.
People might want to wait at least a few years before the “large scale study” is completed. Tens of millions of people are about to begin

“ most common Ozempic side effects are nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain and constipation. Serious Ozempic side effects include allergic reactions, changes in vision and pancreatitis. Ozempic has an FDA boxed warning for the risk of thyroid C-cell tumors.”
Yesterday was a mess, with first an announcement video and then a blog post released before they were supposed to. Normally we'd merge the threads but I don't think it makes much sense in this case - there's obviously community appetite to discuss this, so I think we probably just need to eat the duplication, even though we try hard not to.

There's a slightly similar case high on the frontpage right now: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37434918. The thing isn't released yet but the appetite to discuss it is strong.
Ah that's true, but I think it ends up hairier when you combine the two together and have closures that are async, e.g.:

let x = || -> i32 { 1 }; // fine
let x = || -> impl Future<Output = i32> { async { 1 } }; // error: `impl Trait` only allowed in function and inherent method return types, not in closure return types

Unless I'm missing something, sometimes you do have to name the return type of an async closure if it's returning e.g Result<T, Box<dyn Error>>, and use of the ? operator means that the return type can't be inferred without an explicit annotation.
I have a tentative vision of a future where people having access to tools like these breaks the incentive for companies to make people addicts. If drugs free them from the tyranny of companies exploiting biological weaknesses to make people addicted to what they sell, people regain agency in so many aspects of their lives. Food, drink, drugs, media consumption, consumerism. There's a glimpse of a power structure being dismantled, and humanity being able to take a collective deep breath and think about what we actually want.
I'm now reading a book called "Do you believe in magic"/ Paul Offit, it's on topic of alternative medicine.
In 70's there was a very popular (and bogus) cancer cure called Laetrile (Hygrogen Cyanide) that was pushed by some doctors and organizations. Horrible stuff that caused more damage than helped but too many people were trying to sell it as a magic cancer cure. Also there were coffee enemas...

My point is, if it's sold like a magic cure it potentially might be a bogus one? How many times humanity won the lottery prize and discovered something revolutionary like penecillin?
Women can more readily get attention, but not necessarily the kind of attention they want. Women also become emotionally invested in fictional characters or celebrities. Same, same, but different.
You'd probably have to target the older women crowd. Teenage girls are at the peak of their sexual power and are actively fending off tons of interest every day. While they may be occasionally interested in something like this, I can't see them paying for it enough to be a viable market.
How does one discern between undesirable and desirable attention?

Asking for a friend.
I'm asking why the demand is not as high for male AI partners, when other media which also simulates male romantic partnership has HUGE demand. Just look at how much erotica makes. How many weird fetish stories are posted on fanfiction sites where the reader is a character. How much money stupid things like Boyfriend Dungeon (a real thing! a dungeon crawler where you date your exclusively-male weapons!) makes! You'd think AI boyfriends fit way closer to this existing market.
I thought about it a lot. I think it's a positive feedback loop like any other kind of self gratification thing. I certainly stopped bothering with trying to "get out there" as much, and "sexting" with others just doesn't give me the same satisfaction anymore.

So maybe?
With the internet polarization,individualization and atomization kept getting stronger, I'd expect more and more individuals will retreat from intrapersonal offline communication including romantic relationships and drown themselves in AI
Yes, that is freakin' awesome.
The ergonomics of pulling stuff out of bins with a circular aperture smaller than the inside of the bin is... an interesting decision.

All of this seems really rickety and claustrophobic since you have to crawl in and out of everything.

Despite all of that, it looks really cool.
Also processed junk food got way more cheap and common and unhealthy right? almost everyone’s brain is wired to love sugar and salt, and we found good ways to hack that.
Right on. Different strokes for different folks! I was only speaking to what I find problematic or less than optimal. My personal experience with browser pointer APIs, native pointer interfacing through libusb (a subset) via wasm, the WebGPU api's vulkan-like structure, and custom drawing solutions in wasm all lead me to believe that a drawing app could be entirely performant and responsive to input.

I don't hold anyone to any moral obligation; I just speak freely about what I find unsavory. I want applications delivered to me through a url, negotiating with my environment for permissions based on what I allow, and performing for me with native capabilities, including performance, integration, and offline functionality. Return on investment notwithstanding, it's often possible to achieve these goals with modern technology. It's not always, and there are cases where we absolutely should not prioritize these things. Outliers highlighting the example and whatnot.

But, all of that aside, I made a specific point to say that even if my apparently sky-high standards are not satisfied, the product is still great. I don't feel like I was being negative. I'm not sure why that implies a moral issue, to you, but I'm sorry for being unclear!
Food also got a lot more convenient at the same time it was being optimized toward a "bliss point" that would encourage you to always eat one more bite.

Americans in the middle income quintile already had easy access to more calories than they should eat in 1960. But boiling another pot of potatoes wasn't as fast or delicious as microwaving another frozen mini-pizza, so there were fewer temptations to overeat.
That's an awesome story and I'd love to believe that's how it will always be. But I can't.

I'm sure we could find great examples of other companies that made similar privacy aware decisions, only to then turn around and throw all that out of the window for increased profits.

Call me skeptical, but these entities have one purpose: profits. Why would I trust they won't ever misuse my data?
I think we're seeing multiple factors with a kind of hideous synergy:

1) Decrease in physical activity (desk jobs, social media, games, an endless stream of entertainment).

2) Federal subsidies causing a glut of some foods.

3) Increased portion sizes on many things.

4) Forever chemicals, the PFASs, xenoestrogens, bisphenols in many things we touch or what touches our food, messing with our hormones.

5) Hormone-fed livestock for weight gain, does any of that pass on to us?

6) Supranormal stimulation: we're eating and drinking things designed to stimulate us at a level we just weren't evolved to deal with.

7) Real changes in food composition -- as an example, consider the shift from cane sugar to HFCS.

I think that's the most of them. So, imagine each one of them caused a teensy one percent change (caloric intake, increase in digestion efficiency, whatever). Well, that's 1.01 to the power of our seven different factors, or, if you would originally be stable at two thousand calories per day, an extra 144 calories per day. That's about a can of Coke. Doesn't sound like a lot.

However, that adds up to 52,596 extra calories per annum, or a fifteen pound gain. Hideous synergy.
I actually liked Fogbugz a hell of a lot more than Jira... Sadly it's been sold and is barely a shell of what it was but it had a lot of a premise and was a lot more developer friendly.
Development? Is OP under the age of 22 or something?
AI coding is 'inescapable' and here to stay, says Gitlab
The problem is not ls. You use hundreds, thousands of commands, tools, programs, libraries every day, today is exa, tomorrow could be a different one, and then a different one. In 5 years you update your linux distribution and exa stop working, but it is not maintained anymore so there will be no fix, and then you curse yourself for building all your scripts using exa and having to update then. The probability for each individual tool in negligible, but it is multiplied by every new one you use.
Charlie Stross: Not a Manifesto (2014)
They can easily get low-grade (and unwanted) attention, but high-grade attention of the opposite sex is just as tough as it is for men. From men's point of view that tends to be more sex only it might seem like women have it easy, but women tend to want more emotional involvement in relationships. Hence why women read more in depth about love and sex in romance novels, and why men watch porn and buy prostitutes. Not saying there aren't men that don't enjoy romance novels or that women don't watch porn, only that it's a very clear that the sexes are biased that way.
Nobody needs either of these technologies for stationary storage, where gravimetric and volumetric energy and power density are all but irrelevant.
Makes sense. When I read your notes, it appeared that you wanted to run untrusted code on a backend server.
I know there's a lot of appetite to discuss this but it isn't released yet, so the thread can only go so deep. We want to have space for discussion once the product is out, so downweighting this thread is probably best.
This isn’t really a business context though, it’s an ethical one.

I think most people would agree that velocity hardly matters here, what’s been actually done is generally what gets judgement, not where you will be in some time if you do everything the same.

What you are describing is essentially pre-crime.
I might get downvoted for this, but it would make sense as one-time purchases lessen the need to provide more regular updates. It becomes unaffordable to continue, so they now are forced to launch separate, new products.

Subscriptions can be good!
> In the first half of this year, Danish GDP rose at a 1.7 percent annualized rate thanks to the contribution of Novo Nordisk, the drug maker responsible for anti-obesity blockbusters Ozempic and Wegovy. Without soaring production and profits at Novo Nordisk, Danish GDP would have shrunk by 0.3 percent.

Incredible.

While people are sharing anecdotes, I’ll add mine. My wife went on Wegovy in January — she’s lost over 50 pounds. (Having four kids really does a number on you.) She’s sick less often, she’s stopped complaining about her knees hurting, she’s more active. She looks like a different person!

All around, a huge win. I really pray there’s no long-term side-effects lurking for everybody who’s benefiting from these drugs.
In the .Net/C# world library users just expect that the library has implemented both DoThings() and DoThingsAsync(). However that is easier said that done because many of the foundational low-level IO APIs were implemented by Microsoft that first implemented IoMethod() and then implemented IoMethodAsync() when async/await became a thing in C#.
Interfaces are like Legos

The concept of a n-dimensional “room” helps inform how much testing is “enough”

Everything in software is an abstraction for another concept
Because coffee is awesome if you avoid the negative effects like sleep disruption?
I think so too. Its already been trending this way. An easy and old example is anxiety young generations feel about calling vs texting. I don’t think demand for removing people dependencies are satisfied.
Preface this by saying I have nothing against Ozempic, and its uses. But there are people (myself included) who do not believe for one second that there are people who if they actually watch what they eat and exercise, can't lose weight. Outside of extremely rare conditions, I don't believe that's possible. And yet so many people claim it. Just admit that you want a shortcut, there's nothing wrong with that.

The opioid crisis has taught me that some doctors will put you on drugs without a care in the world to the consequences. Not that hard to find one who will tell you what you want to hear.

Look at this thread. Everyone taking these drugs has some metabolic condition?
> Anyone who bothers to think things through can see the huge, obvious flaw: people are not all the same and that these are human beings, not robots or drones.

Part of the problem with accepting this is that it cuts against the MBA ethos: that a good manager is a good manager in any industry, because specialized knowledge is not required.

Which, might be true for extremely high performing managers, who will seek out and rapidly learn any specialized knowledge needed...

... but is very much not true for the bulk of managers, who lack that amount of initiative and capability, and thus need more seasoning time and domain knowledge.
