The problem is advanced LLMs are controlled by large corporations. Powerful local models exist (in part thanks to Meta's generosity oddly enough) and they're close to GPT-3.5, but GPT-4 is far ahead of them and by the time other models reach to that point whatever OpenAI or Antropic, Meta etc. have developed behind closed doors could be significantly better. In that case open models will be restricted to niche uses and most people will use the latest model from a giant corp.

So it is possible that LLMs will centralize the production and dissemination of knowledge, which is the opposite of what people think the printing press did. I hope I'm wrong and open models can challenge/overtake state of the art models developed by tech giants, that would be amazing.

That's how things are for some. Not everybody has this luxury.
Except they shouldn't be islands. Unify/standardise the payment mechanism, make it frictionless and only for content consumed. There's no technical reason you shouldn't see an article on hn or wherever, follow the link and read it and pay for it without having set up and pay for a subscription for the entire publication or jump through hoops. It should be a click at most.

There will always be a place for subscriptions, but people want the hypertext model of just following a link from somewhere and there is absolutely no technical reason for that to be incompatible with paying for content. The idea that ads are the only way to fund the web needs to be challenged, and generative AI might just provide the push for that to finally happen.

Or maybe there will be no such crisis and it'll just make the whole thing even more exploitative and garbage-filled.

> the hallowed automobile temple, like a phylactery to the Saints of petroleum refinery

Ha, I'd say this is a completely mixed metaphor, except it is a simile... Phylacteries are used by Jewish men, and contain verses of the Torah inside, which are worn on the head and the arm (following a literal interpretation of "bind these words to your forehead and to your arms"). Jews do not have "saints", they have "tzadikim" (righteous ones). Christian saints, on the other hand, are either venerated with an ikon (an image of the saint) or through a relic (generally a bone of the saint) housed in a reliquary. Although a reliquary is way too small for a garage, so maybe a chapel which houses the reliquary. A "shrine" may also house a reliquary, I'm not sure, I tend to think of "shrine" as being to a non-monotheistic god. Generally Christian houses of worship are not "temples", except for some Pentecostally churches in the 1960s, and Jews only have a "Temple", which would be in Jerusalem if there were one.

There are 2 different thoughts here I think. If using GitOps in Kubernetes, then application and set up (Pods) aren’t associated with Nodes (EC2). And both can be torn down and rebuilt without state issues. When state is required, then PVCs and Stateful Sets come into play.

For managed services like S3 and RDS, there are other GitOps tools like Crossplane.io which you can use for similar GitOps management. But the paradigm shift might also be that you add GitOps config to perform regular backups, and also add config to ensure that if it is being recreated, it restores from a backup.

If you are a human you cannot break significant ice by throwing. Sure you can break 1cm of ice, but so any any other boat. We need ice breakers because there are cases where the ice is probably strong enough to support a the heaviest truck, but it doesn't quite have enough margin of safety on that probably to actually drive a truck so if you want to get through you need to send a boat through water.

> Wire up a cheap boat with explosives and it can sink an expensive naval vessel.

This has been pretty obvious since the Millennium Challenge 21 years ago, when they just called them suicide attacks. Nobody seems to have cared then and not much has changed.

I think the issue is pretty tightly limited to boats/sea drones, though. If you're even a few feet under the surface then sonar can see you. If you're a few feet above the surface then radar gets you. Both options die a mile away.

I also think Russia is probably not very representative of the overall threat, too. I don't think their navy is running particularly better than their army. I don't know that other navies can do much besides trying to spot ships and blow them up with guns (do top-attack missiles work?) but whether or not they're good at it they'll definitely be much better than Russia. Until there's some sign that countries are actually investing in sea drones I don't think anything will be done, and I wouldn't be surprised if some kind of small top-attack rocket makes it a non-issue.

> autonomous submersible

autonomous and submersible don't go very well together. Radio contact underwater is terrible. It's not like drones fly themselves; we haven't figure out the whole autonomous thing.

> capable of launching drones with variable payloads?

Landing a plane on a ship is actually really hard and requires constant maintenance, even for VTOL. Even for helicopters. Smaller the ship, harder it is to land.

> build a drone ship that can launch missiles?

But like, why? Why not have people on it? Ships are not big because of the people on it. People can treat casualties, repel boarding, land on the ground etc. Ships are also constantly being maintained and repaired. Waves and salt are a real bitch.

If you make a ship without people it'll cost almost the same, be almost the same size, be very hard to repair and be much less capable.
In what sense do you believe it's "basically our proposal translated to Rust" ?

N3005 explains four provenance variants, but settles on specifically PNVI-ue-udi for the future of C. But Aria's experiment focuses on roughly what you'd call PNVI-plain, reasoning that Rust largely does not need the extra headache of exposure.

N3005 doesn't provide an implementation, so Aria can't have merely "translated" that. It doesn't provide an API design (so not that). Which leaves basically the fact that you've extensively discussed the semantics of these variants.

Let's try specifics: Take a common feature of Rust's design, ptr::map_addr. Where is equivalent functionality described for C in N3005 ? In Rust it's perfectly natural to write a lambda here, in C perhaps you'd spell this very differently, but N3005 doesn't seem to offer such a thing.

It's an issue that N3005 is still a draft because it goes to how long this wound has festered in C comparatively and will still be there. If this was merely a theoretical problem I wouldn't be bothered, but the whole reason DR260 was raised is that it's not a theoretical problem.

> However, if the timezone in question has some changes you didn't anticipate (new law voted, no more summer time), then you will either be triggering your event 1h before (e.g. 9am instead of 10am) which is probably not what your user wanted, or you'll have to recompute all your timestamps to take that change into account.

This is a really interesting scenario that I hadn't considered at all. You're totally right; this approach breaks down there.

Off the top of my head, it looks like this scenario would require manual action either way, though. Either it's an update of the packaged datetime library to incorporate this new regulation, or it's a database migration to update the timestamps for affected users.
Ask HN: Does anyone have any experience with Resilio Connect?
I'm looking for a file server and / or sync solution that can cope with continuous changes to directory structure and file names.

Resilio Connect has an ok looking feature list, but it's super high-touch sales where you have to schedule a meeting to get a demo and pricing. In my experience that's done to compensate for weakness on the technical side. Plus, we're trying to get away from dealing with companies that insist on controlling and managing our relationship so aggressively.

Does anyone have any experience with it? I can't find much info online and I'd like some organic opinions before deciding if it's worth my time to endure a call with their sales department.

If anyone from Resilio hangs out here, why can't I get a demo and do my own technical evaluation before talking to your sales department?

Are there any engineering driven companies in the same product space?
That's a pity. It's easy for a smart firm to take over a space like this, but in doing so it kills all the lesser fan-driven versions. The latter are labors of love and vary widely in quality, but I'm not sure that a homogenized platform-product is superior.
They don't really have the population for it. In fact, they've got an acute skilled labor shortage (and had one even before the war).

> That’s right, our raycast is returning an untyped dictionary.

This is probably the biggest red flag for me, why would you use an untyped dictionary for something as essential and commonly used as a raycast result?
I'm not even sure how to respond to this other than by pointing out that it's a perfect example of your terrible communication skills. I'm telling you that you take a common phrase like "for some reason" which any reasonable person would at best interpret as a genuine lack of known reason, and more likely (both because of the medium, and your generally hostile tone) as a snarky implication that there's something nefarious going on, and you claim that you meant it as a general expression of disagreement. I'm fairly confident that no one hears "for some reason" and translates that to "I completely understand and acknowledge the stated reasons and disagree that they are right". I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt and assuming that you have a reason to – consistently, over months and multiple "incidents" – have these sorts of "misunderstandings", and am suggesting that you do something to make sure your communications are clear, or otherwise stay out of doing the communicating. I even noted that your goal of transparency was laudable, but that you weren't actually accomplishing what you thought you were.

You've somehow managed to twist that into a rant about how wester culture only values PR as a way to "shape the reality" and how I "care more about the PR stunt". You are a bad communicator. The problem isn't your "culture of honesty". The problem is you keep choosing words and phrases that don't mean what you intend them to mean. The problem is that when people try to get that "accountability" out of you, you double down and insist that you are being mis-understood and that people have it out for you. The problem is your tone, words and actions come across as defensive, dishonest and in some cases more like a PR attempt to "shape the reality rather than accountability".

I'm glad you've hired incredibly talented people who couldn't care less about PR stunts. You owe it to those people to stop torpedoing your own business with your inability to live up to your goals of clear communication.

> If F-35 is at the MANPAD altitude then somebody (pilot) fucked greatly. F-35 in CAS role would never drop to MANPAD altitude and Shilka doesn't care about the plane stealthiness.

*Multi-role* fighter. F35 has gun-pods and absolutely is expected to play some CAS role.

Its not a dedicated CAS aircraft, no. Its not as good as other aircraft at the job (AC-130 has more loiter time, bigger guns, etc. etc.), but in a war you use what you can get your hands on.

--------

And suddenly talking about different weapons now that MANPADs are (probably) useless vs a Stealth Aircraft is the case-in-point of a multi-role fighter with multiple advanced capabilities.

No weapon is immune to all weapons or defenses. But F35 is immune to most missiles due to the nature of stealth. Stealth is the modern armor: if you can't be seen or can't be tracked, you can't be hit. I wouldn't say that F35 is ideal for gatling-gun strafe runs of enemies, but the fact remains that it _CAN_ do the job if forced (thanks to those configurable gunpods).

IMO, the war on the ground being fought right now? A system that can kill enemy Helicopters, perform SEAD, stealth capabilities and even do CAS (albeit a crappy job at it but "can do the job") is so obviously useful to the Ukrainian war that its hard to take any counter-argument seriously.

> If F-35 is at the MANPAD altitude then somebody (pilot) fucked greatly. F-35 in CAS role would never drop to MANPAD altitude and Shilka doesn't care about the plane stealthiness.

What's the Shilka's RADAR-guided gun supposed to do against an airplane it can't even see? Are the operators expected to aim and shoot purely on optics?

No, not anymore at least. The church used to in its early days (mid 19th century) encourage immigration to Utah (aka "Zion"), but many years ago they declared that "gathering of Zion" should take place where people already are.

>>aspirations which people at the end of WWII had for the postwar international order were never realized.

Yes, the UN failed to live up to that aspiration.

Of course some kind of Shangra-La where there is no conflict and no authoritarians trying to take over would be fantastic. The problem is that it is just that - a fantasy. We must deal with the reality of the world.

This is in no small part to the failure of including as permanent members on the Security Council the authoritarian states of USSR and China, which have done little but abuse the system attempting to game it for their own interests.

So, yes, we are down to a choice. Either:

1) The nations attempting (however imperfectly) to let their people live self-determining lives, and elect self-determining governments step up and enforce that aspirational world order as best they can.

or

2) Abandon attempts at suppressing imperialism and maintainting order, and allow again states to engage in war of all against all.

Suggesting that #1 is the same as imperialism, or as #2, is absurd.

We can seen where the policing has broken down, because the states trying to maintain democracy and the Post-WWII world order have tried appeasement or failed to police. It is endless war crimes, cities reduced to rubble, internment "reeducation" camps for millions.

So, if you are going to throw accusations that the US, UK, FR, NATO, attempting to maintain whatever peaceful world order is some kind of problem or is illegitimate, you need to come up with a better and viable solution.
