I hold this one close to my heart, I was a beta tester for it and designed some of the puzzle levels (you can see me on the credits page there)
The prison experiments are long debunked. It required lying to and manipulating the guards and has never been successfully replicated. They had to be pushed and coerced into evil behavior when they were explicitly being told it was not just expected but required.
The Deployment Dilemma: Merits and Challenges of Deploying MPC
That's fair. I just wanted it to default to safe (as good user design dictates).
Thanks for the correction. I fixed the issue in the main article -- I think my brain automatically translated Terry -> Terrance. I should have paid more attention to the spelling that's for sure so apologies for any frustration!
That perspective is completely formed from my reality. I went to a private university for stupid reasons ("eh, it's closer to the beach than the public school"), witnessed first hand the advantages that the private school was offering me relative to my highschool friends who went the public school path, and took advantage of them.

If your lived experience differs, maybe you should explain how, rather than dismissing mine out of hand.
I am currently in the middle of rebuilding a pair of 6.2L small block Chevrolet engines. By a factor of six these are the largest engines I've ever worked on, and the rebuild is far more extensive than anything I've attempted before too.

During the teardown, part of my process (let's not dignify it with "workflow") has been photographing the incredible amount of crap that's been bolted to the engines as I remove pieces to help me with later reassembly. Sometimes I say a couple of words because the Live Photo captures some context.

I have come to loathe my phone as a camera. Yes it works with gloves on, but every day it ends up covered in oil and grease. Holding it is awkward, you have to do a bunch of swipey things to make the camera work, the 3D Touch (or whatever it's called now) is somewhat random with gloves, and I've lost count of the number of times it's got itself stuck in portrait or panorama mode. Those of you with daughters will understand this ultimate critique - it was worth it to me to bribe my grumpy pre-teen to operate the camera rather than fighting it myself.

All of this is to say, I could _really_ use a pair of camera glasses. That little bit of friction taken out of the process would make a massive difference to me. And if I could record video, I'd be able to add another middle aged man's amateur mechanics channel to YouTube - something that I am certain the world is desperate for.
1k, 100k, 10m loc does not change anything because no project depends on all the loc as a single unit, everything is split into modules / packages / class / functions.

Kubernetes is over 1.5M loc and I've not seen problem with error handling.
Another way to look at that is a government body looking after the best interests of it's citizens vs. a corporation just chasing maximum profit.

Given that we can be glad the corps don't wield the violence.

Imagine if Apple could force you to buy it's goods at gunpoint?
Sure, let me explain. First of all, Apple Shortcuts is secure by design due to the way Apple built it. All the actions from a shortcut, any shortcut, are visible to the user. That is why I said the app is open-source. Everything it does is visible, especially when running in Debug Mode, where both the input and output data of the actions are displayed before actually processing that data further. I actually recommend running it first in Debug Mode for a full overview of how it works. Second, Apple Shortcuts always asks for your permission first when any shortcut needs access to any data. So it will never automatically use any data without your consent. Lastly, fully detailed logs for each conversation are stored in iCloud - Shortcuts folder - COPILOT folder, for both full transparency and future reference of old conversations. I hope you understand now that user data is safe. Thank you!
I don't think photographs are generally advertised as "open source", because there is not generally a source code form of a photograph.

The MIT license doesn't distinguish between binaries and source, but the GPL does. The GPL defines source code as:

> The “source code” for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. “Object code” means any non-source form of a work.

What is the preferred form of an LLM for making modifications to it?
Be the change you want to see in the world ;-)

I think a flow chart of when to use a knot is a great idea! Please make it!
Got it.

I see WebGPU is available in safari tech preview 92, but still an "experimental" feature there.

It looks like Webgpu is kind of been around the block for a while now. I wonder what the hold up is at firefox and safari. It would be much preferable to run more ops on the client. (Complete speculation but I could see this, and the battery use implications possibly making Apple hesitant)

My goal is to provide a browser-based experience first. This is to get at the largest potential user base and there's no friction from install. So, at least for now a electron app is not in plan.
CS2 is missing a bunch of maps compared to CS:GO but at least they didn't mess with gameplay like they did Overwatch 2 (removing a tank).
Probably this. Doing so would allow one to check for agreement between the video feed and the light sensor.
Open Source does not win by being cheaper
How about Norton Commander?
Is it too cynical to say this might be a lesson devs need to learn the hard way?

Right now the JS community has whipped themselves into a frenzy into building on VC backed technology.

- They refuse to acknowledge that the loudest voices in the room are openly sponsored and invested in by the same VCs who own the companies behind said tech

- They see no issue with a lack of diversity in implementations, instead settling for "it's a standard". Of course, defining a standard without a healthy variety of implementations means you end up with standards that don't benefit from a wide range of voices until well after they land (see RSC)

At the end of the day, those two alone are a pretty harsh combo: A VC-backed network effect machine built across multiple brands, and high technical costs to building something that meets the collection of standards.

I don't think anyone but FAANG can really compete with that without also getting VC dollars, thus reinforcing the loop.
Like the Cisco ones that were used by US spies?

Things never change.
It is a startup and happened in the onboarding demo, I'll avoid naming them in case they sort it out or whatever. If you really want to know, please send me an email.
We'll just call it "NYC" ;)
Luxottica is probably doing very nicely on this partnership, and may well be offering Apple a substantial price cut to compensate. I had never heard of 'Rayban' before this Apple announcement! (Not that I am the target market for sunglasses anyway, in dark and wet Great Britain)
I would guess they weighted the cost of being sued into oblivion against the benefits and decided to be conservative...
"I don’t want the message to be" is like the corporate version of "I'm not racist, but".

You don't say "I'm not racist, but this cheese tastes really good" just like you don't say "I don't want the message to be that we like hugging puppies". These words in any corporate environment are always a sign that someone knows that what they're doing is ethically wrong or will at the very least piss off customers.
> the chinese

This terminology makes you sound antiquated and prejudiced, FWIW.
I know. I am working on it! Thank you!
Yes. And yes that is one of the ways to solve it.

You could also do something like have a clean mapping table (i.e. the code with no breakpoints installed) that you install for just the thread doing the step. You then revert back to the normal mapping table with the breakpoint after the step. As you are only modifying the executable section, as long as you are not using self-modifying code, there should be no data inconsistency with having a multiple copys of the executable transiently.
Getting Audio from Still Images and Silent Videos
Oh, I wasn't aware. Thank you for pointing out. From what I've read, even though there's an injunction, IA was going to appeal, so I hope this isn't exactly over yet?
To be fair, it's a stupid distraction from discussing the model. If every thread just turns into politics it would not make for good discussions. People can start threads about specific ideologies that language models have and they can be discussed there (and have been). Bringing that up every time a model is discussed feels off topic and legit to flag (I didn't flag it)

Edit: but now I see the thread has basically been ruined and it's going to be about politics instead of anything new and interesting about the model, congrats everyone.
That's an interesting point. I don't get much value from art personally (not that i don't see why people value it, i do!), so the idea of AI generated art isn't disgusting to me.

Music however.. i adore music. A big (but not essential) thing i love about music is the story that got the artist to that point. Pain, joy, emotion is transferred. Yea, often it's not essential so maybe AI Music has a place in my life, but easily 60% of my music is loved partly, if not heavily, because of the emotions that got the artist to that point.

I too am not interested in outsourcing this.
Glad to see more models made available. Sadly it has the same kind of licensing problems as Facebook's LLaMa [1]:

* "If you are commercially using the Materials, and your product or service has more than 100 million monthly active users, You shall request a license from Us."

* "You can not use the Materials or any output therefrom to improve any other large language model (excluding Tongyi Qianwen or derivative works thereof)."

[1]: https://github.com/QwenLM/Qwen/blob/main/LICENSE

So, thanks Facebook for setting a truly awful precedence that other corporate lawyers will now copy. We may not be entitled to your work, but your awful behaviour seem to cause Alibaba as well to claim that their model is open rather than what it really is: available. I need to come up with a t-shirt design mocking the appropriation going on (well, outright violation when Facebook says that LLaMa is compatible with open science) so that I can wear it at upcoming conferences.

Okay now imagine you're a plumber. How are you going to advertise your services to get business? Put an ad in the Yellow Pages? Post flyers around the neighborhood? Make an ad on Craigslist?

It's easy to say "ditch all that crap" when you have other people in your corporation who use all that crap so you can just show up at your job and do your work. But the crap is still there, becoming a necessary tool for functioning in society, one impressionable teenager at a time.
Would it be possible that these leaks happen on purpose?

If the locals don't like the college moving is an option. Not cheap, but you can sell the old campus to get a lot back.
They are basically a series of intermediate bytecodes to be compiled to the hardware they actually run on, in addition to the large tables of weights that bytecode references.

I had the original version of these, which didn't know if the LED was covered, but it didn't matter because no one even noticed when the LED was on, or if they did, they didn't seem to realize that it was a camera. I tried it at a party to get some candid shots with my friends. But in the end, the quality wasn't good enough for the candid shots to actually be worth keeping.
I've never heard of these. What are they supposed to be? Just looks like random pictures of places and people?
I’d say more like the dot com-era Linux bubble: Linux did change the world and created an insane amount of economic value, but did not spawn a wave of sustainable Linux-centered megacorps.

I bought a cheapish wifi router to use for dedicated AirLink and I do SteamVR -> Quest 2. It works great. No latency (but I will admit the very occasional lag spike, it doesn't bother me and I don't miss a note while Beat Saber is going super fast, so it can't be that bad)

Yes, you do need a gaming PC. I got a gaming laptop for like $2400 AUD 3 years ago and it's going great with VR (and Starfield on Ultra, not in VR)
Man i hope more people (plugin developers too) embrace CLAP or something open. I'm writing a Rust program and i really want to allow for Modart's Pianoteq plugin and VST just makes it feel so difficult.
It's ok, it should be optional, and the two groups (anticheat and no anticheat) play separated, and everybody's happy.
True, but there are free and publicly available models and while they're considered to be worse than OpenAI offerings, they aren't that bad. Or at least I hope so.
do you have any actionable suggestions aside from moderator-approved messages or turning the forum read-only?

information suppression is pretty tough work, especially when you're trying to suppress the unknown.
Not really much of a conspiracy there, most of the "leaks" are technically public info NATO documents, War Thunder's developer doesn't want to touch ANYTHING that might have been classified at one point.
Sequels of sequels are hardly a good thing for gaming. Maybe I was spoiled, but in the '80s/'90s we'd get multiple genre- creating titles every year or so. As good as these sequels are, they're not creating any new genre.
No, I’ll give it a look, thanks for the tip.
Glasses are uncomfortable to wear all the time. They are hard to control because they have very limited input methods. Nobody wants to charge their glasse. Every "smart glasses" product ever has failed - nobody wants these.
"although" made me think it might be too opinionated in places I should review. No matter, whatever you think of it is fair. Thanks!
I think tying compensation to stock price makes sense... if you work for a company till retirement. If these stock options are the difference between covering your retirement or working into your seventies, employees would think long-term.

If https://www.cnbc.com/2019/12/03/a-tech-firm-tried-it-all-to-... is to be believed, average tenure at Google is just over a year. That turns stock options from a retirement fund into a nice bonus to cover looking for a new job.
I know they said they're rolling it out, but how long are we looking at, here?
On the topic of Deno's cloud deployment and Deno KV, does it offer a reasonable user story for caching? Or is that something you're expected to handle yourself (for now)?
It's true, we have to rethink the fundamental interface; some blend of aesthetics like vinyl and record players similar to how Steve Jobs incorporated into the early iPod would be interested to keep. Aesthetic / UX wisdom pieces from the past, with the infinite canvas of the 90s (the web), to the modern digital sculpture bendable paper interface of the near-Now, some delightful advancements to keep our heads turning like the feathers of a peacock.
> The implicit definition of "fair" as "equal suffering" is always a bit concerning to me.

For family peace, it may be the best thing. My personal anecdote:

I'm from city A. My spouse is from city B. We lived in city C. Our parents were fine with that.

My mother-in-law developed a rare disease. She had no children nearby. Now we live in city B, close to her.

In city A, despite having two of my siblings nearby, my parents absolutely resented our move. They were quite hostile at some point.

That sent my spouse to therapy and there's been no contact between them since. I'm fully on my spouse's side, especially given what my parents said and did.

But the move has taken a real toll.
easy to parse, supported by basically anything and not a shitty format like YAML for example
Interesting, I find it quite playable without on 160Hz! I use gamescope to make it slightly better feeling. I'm also on Sway/wlroots - fairly minimal, but still sync-happy.

Have you tried gamescope out, perhaps the '--immediate-flips' argument? That suggests it may lead to/allow tearing - or does it depend on what you're waiting for?
Is it a distraction? AI alignment is a huge topic, especially if the model is from an authoritarian country.
Michael W. Lucas is such a good author, and I just wanted to give a shout-out: "TLS Mastery" opened my eyes to the world of TLS / SSL certs in an understandable way that used interactive examples on Linux.

China could learn from Western examples. If you ask "what happened in the Chagos islands?" of Google Bard, you get a decent summary, even though it's an ongoing situation.

yes and no

yes I confused the quotes

but the question in general about weather ClickHouse Keeper and ZooKeeper are designed for completely different use-cases which happen to be similar and can work with the same interface still stands

and by now knowing more then my original comment I would answer the question with yes
> I've lived in places where you can't even get to the nearest public road in 500m

500m is over 0.3 miles. That's certainly possible in rural locations, but its very much not typical of places people live outside of “dense cities”.

> In a lot of the USA, living within a 5 minute walk of your friends means they are "1 or at most 2 next door neighbors down the street".

This is true in a lot of the USA by geographical area, but not a common experience (exactly because this fact means virtually no one lives there.)

Suburbs are typically around 2,000 people per square mile, or about 150 people within a 500m radius.
You completely missed everything about mixed reality. That is the killer selling point for Meta Quest 3.

This hardware has the capacity to do almost everything that Apple's device can do for a fraction of the cost (just not with Apple integration).
Because it's more of an update than a new game.

I think it’s the same reason people didn’t shop around in the 70’s/80’s, they just bought IBM. Or Microsoft in the 90’s/00’s.

It’s not really about making the best possible decision, it’s the one that’s easiest to defend when the CEO comes around for a chat. “We hired the guy from Harvard” puts a smile on the face of the CEO, who went to Harvard himself. “We hired the guy from Podunk State” might not get you fired, but could be a bit awkward!
when teh apple vision comes out? CAD software!!
My own ideas of operating system design, I have made many ideas relating to them, and one of the important features it involves is capability-based security. My project does not currently have a name, though. Note that proxy capabilities are actually useful for many things rather than only for security, though; however they are good for security too.
The company that delivers an ability for me to just randomly capture video/pictures "in the moment" has my VR/AR/Glass-hole vote from Day One.

My kids will (and I approve, to be honest) REFUSE to repeat what they just did for the camera, and if they see it out, will sometimes shutdown whatever AMAZING thing they just re-invented.

The supercomputer taking "T3h B3st P1ctur3 Ev@R" in my pocket cannot solve that problem, but some rando "glasses"/"contacts" solution that could has been just out-of-reach for this use case for what feels like decades ;)
Lol i hope you're being ironic. i don't agree with everything there, but the single word "commie" is enough to make me not agree with whatever you say. sounds pretty mccarthyist to me
It will use a special charging cable and tell you that as an orb it is not capable of answering you why.
> When taking a shower, I would like fine control over the water temperature, preferably with a feedback loop regulating the temperature. (Preferably also the regulation changes over the duration of the showering.)

That exists, but it’s expensive because of the electronics and mechanics involved. There are so many interfaces with this exact problem.

You also almost certainly don’t want non-deterministic hallucination prone AI controlling physical systems.
They are two lifestyle magazines. I don't expect the HN crowd to be familiar with them, but they are exemplars of the style that Emu has been aligned with.
Fun fact: Business and personal accounts don't have to be the same thing.
We have such a weird fascination with Tiananmen, like it’s some sort of big gotcha. You can ask actual Chinese citizens and they know about it, and care about it about as much as an American citizen cares about the Kent State massacre.
Meta is all about VR. VR means a display. Anyone would assume "meta glasses" are AR glasses. This is just a desperate attempt to boost the meta hype because they have made no progress on actual VR products.

They are also called "smart glasses", but they are just headphones and a camera. Nobody calls their bluetooth headphones "smart".
A big reason why consoles aren't as general purpose is because their app stores are more restrictive than phone app stores. Also this reasoning leads to some odd policy outcomes. If console manufacturers increased their prices so that their consoles weren't loss-leaders, would you be swayed towards forcing them to open their app stores? Likewise if Apple sold iPhones as loss leaders, would you be swayed against forcing them to open their app store?
Sounds like a perfect use-case for a GoPro?
Ah yes, let's act completely oblivious to the core problem just because this specific case was able to have a solution, yet if we take a look at youtube since 2010 or at how Bard was originally released and kept back till ChatGPT caught on purely due to user pressure (and to this day Bard is terrible, most likely on purpose).

Google has so many cases where millions or even billions for all we know have had their productivity lowered purely because Google decided to do changes and or held back features for the sole reason that it would affect their ads revenue.
Regardless, that it keeps happening is never not funny.
