> My neighbors near my current home are basically randomly selected suburbanites.

I think that's an understated problem right there - suburbs are awful for fostering good relationships. Some suburbs have gone out of their way to have events like block parties - but most have no real common every-day interaction and the infrequency of common tasks like shifting grocery shopping to a once a week task and minimizing interactions outside of PTA meetings is really hurting our ability to form strong social bonds.

I live in a city so my neighbors are a metric ton of randomly selected folks who I pass often walking on the street and doing life tasks - additionally the population density is high enough that I have multiple different board game events hosted by stores and a plethora of choices for D&D groups to choose from. I think that density makes a very big difference.
A great example of this is how they merged the search box into the address bar, to create the "omnibar." Since then, they've aggressively promoted submitting a new Google search for whatever you're typing in, instead of returning results from your local browser bookmarks, history, etc that wouldn't generate more ad impressions.

You've nailed it this whole thread is about actually using the footage in anything other than it's raw original format. As soon as you start embedding it in other footage to say present and comment on it you run into all sorts of issues dealing with maintaining the signatures.
tldr. They're grumpy because most people suck at software engineering and think they're special. The maintainers are forced to continually to deal with wastes of time from people who refuse to read documentation, or are bad at software, and have no real skin in the game.
Right now like I mentioned our app is basically a clone of bumble BFF, i.e. you create a profile and you swipe to match with people you want to connect to.

But we think swiping might be a bit of a weird way to make friends so the next major feature we're releasing will help guys find small groups (like 4-6 people) who share a similar interest and live close to each other.

Meetup seems like it _could_ do something like this but in my own experience it seems generally catered to groups that are larger and more formal. Also as someone else mentioned it seems like the quality of the network has degraded a lot.
Seems like 6B would still be useful if I want to run it on my GPU without exiting firefox.

I love this analogy
Writing a story 1.5 years after the fact to complain about not being credited for a 20 line patch that was subpar doesn't sound very compromisy nor displomaticy to me.

I feel sad for the maintainer in question who suddenly is on the receiving end of a borderline defamatory blog post featured in the front page of HN for some minor "mistake" he made 1.5 years ago. Apparently according to some comments in this discussion what he did was pretty much standard procedure even.

Where is "being kind" for him? Where is the "encourage them to keep doing what they are doing" for him? Not the misattribution of course, but like, to not feel discouraged after 20 thankless years of contributing to the kernel and 10 years of maintaining a kernel subsystem?

Speculative statements like this are anything but kind: "Linux maintainer thinks this person is worthless as a human". Take your own medicine. Actually be empathic, not only to those wearing the protagonist hat, but to every single person, and perhaps especially those unfairly villainized.
Someone owning only one car, and it being a $100k+ Mercedes, probably means they aren’t into cars as a hobby. They found a great vehicle they like and can afford, they enjoy driving it regularly, and it meets all of their needs. There is nothing wrong with that, and, in fact, it sounds awesome.

However, someone who has 5-6 sub-$10k cars in their garage is almost definitely very into cars. It is about tinkering with them, racing them, restoring, building project cars, doing car shows, collecting them, etc. Doesn’t have to be all of those at all, just any single one (including those I haven’t explicitly mentioned there) would be more than enough.

The pricing doesn’t have much to do with someone being into a hobby. My personal guess is that it is more about how much time you actively dedicate to it.

Boiling is just evaporating water rapidly. No matter what you do, you need to put the same amount of energy in to convert some mass of water to vapor. Any efficiency gains would be in how you get this energy into the water (electric element vs. directly heated by the sun) not in the energy required.
Ask HN: How to prevent Safari from opening Mail on Cmd-I?
MacOS Safari has an incredibly annoying bug that opens the MacOS Mail app when you hit Cmd-I —— sometimes. Sometimes Cmd-I invokes Italic formatting, but sometimes it opens Mail. In older versions of MacOS, there was a menu item for Email This Page / Email Link To This Page, but in Ventura, those menu items are gone from Safari, but the Cmd-I shortcut STILL opens Mail.app

Barf. I never use Mail app and never want it to open. I bet this old shortcut it buried somewhere deep in MacOS/Safari that can't be overridden by normal methods... but I'm sure someone can figure out how to disable it.

Please?

Before you reply, please know that the possible solutions that involve creating an overriding Cmd-I keyboard shortcut as suggested in this discussion https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/108060/how-to-prevent-command-i-command-shift-i-from-opening-mac-mail-when-in-browser DO NOT WORK, so please don't just refer to that.
I loved your post because I have been living away from my younger brother (and parents) for over 10 years. We meet about once every 2 years.

Every time we meet each other, I feel - great. Just amazing. We just sit and shoot the shit like nothing changed. We care for each other's lives. Just sitting with beers or staying over at each other's place makes me feel belonged. Our spouses love hanging out with us. We all go on trips together. We explore restaurants, we bash our bosses, we make food/snacks for each other. When we are bored, we just go over to the other's home and watch TV with them. And all this is so much more fulfilling than grinding my life away at work.

I keep wondering if this rat race life in a big city is worth more than the pleasure I get by just living close to my brother. Who knows if we will be able to do all this tomorrow.

It is a psychological quirk of the human mind when people have choices. You see it all the time here on HN and in the real world. People agonizing about what different "ecosystems" they should use or which things they should purchase.

The truth is that you can have both an iPhone and an Android phone and use both of them as you please. You can have a computer for OS X and one to dual-boot Linux and Windows. You can use a bunch of different text editors, depending on which suits you for the task at hand. You don't have to chose between Gmail and Fastmail, you can use them both. You can have several different web browsers installed on your machine and use them as you please.

People in these forums agonize over tech choices like it is something that they will have to stick with exclusively for the rest of their lives. I really don't get it. You don't have to chose between having a car or a bicycle. You can have both, and are free to walk as well when you feel like.

I like Apple's products and services, but if they don't offer something that is important to me and some competitors offer this, I can simply use the products of a competitor. Why would I trust the most corrupted bureaucrats this planet has ever seen to start interfering?
While it's difficult, I fully agree with this idea. Most of my friends are slowly moving to one neighborhood and it's been fantastic. This neighborhood also happens to be one of the few walkable neighborhoods in my city, which helps massively with feeling more connected too.

I think while living close to friends is important, we really just need to regularly see friends. It's easier to do so if you live close (or if your city has good public transport like metros or trams).
Author here, funnily enough that's one of the keyboards I had my eyes on! (I have that very linked pinned my browser right now). Was holding off until some more depth reviews came out, so far I'd only seen unboxing / first impression videos / reviews. So it's good to see you'd have a good experience with this board.

Might have to wait a few months until I'm back in my home country, I'm in Brazil rn and the import tax is more than the price of the keyboard.

Was worried that it wouldn't hold up to something more premium and I'd have to fork out some additional cash to get that experience. But from what you've mentioned it sounds like it's pretty good for the price.

Sorry for making you feel old!
I would agree with this one. I used to say stuff like "Go is kinda like Ruby/Python, looking down the stack, and Rust is kinda like C or C++, looking up the stack." It makes sense that there's some point where those two trajectories meet in the middle, even if on some level they have their own distinct strengths and weaknesses.
It's a silly thing to even attack, and that doesn't mean be ok with it, I just mean that shortly, it can be generated on the spot, without ever needing to be transmitted over a network or stored on a hard drive.

And you can't attack the means of generating either, without essentially making open source code and private computers illegal. The code doesn't have to have a single line in it explicity about child porn or designer viruses etc to be used for such things, the same way the cpu or compiler doesn't.

So you would have to have hardware and software that the user does not control which can make judgements about what the user is currently doing, or at least log it.

I'd be suspicious of someone taking a stab at running ownership static verification before enabling basic sanity checks like those presented here.

So. Maybe it qualifies as a "gentle introduction" since it's effectively step 1.
One way to think about it is who does the routing. My understanding of rabbitmq from 10 years ago was that RMQ pushes to connected consumers and to only 1 at a time? You'd need a fanout consumer that does more of the work. And lower throughput overall.

With Kafka it "just" keeps appending to a dumb (but huge) circular buffer. But you can have multiple consumers read off this buffer and can start any point. Downside is customers have to maintain their own offsets (in some storage) but there is now a big decoupling between producer and consumer. This contributes a large part to high throughput too (and consumers can go at their own pace -ofcourse if they are too slow they can fall off the log).

That the prima facie anticompetitive business practices (like punishing sellers who sell cheaper elsewhere) actually foster competition, rather than stifling it, is what Amazon will have to show.

It seems unlikely to me that they will be able to do so, especially with weak pretexts like "we aren't effectively punishing sellers who sell cheaper elsewhere, we're just rewarding those who don't", given how damning the anticompetitive behaviors in question are.

If you think they will be able to, great. The plausible interpretations of what we see are just going overwhelmingly against it.

> if they aren't reducing sales/income in the long term, then that is also a defense to "not fostering competition."

Definitely not. I don't see at all how that fosters competition to Amazon's marketplace. Especially since it seems Amazon is punishing sellers for selling cheaper in Amazon's competitors' marketplaces, which is, again, an anticompetitive business practice. Indeed, Amazon's sales here are irrelevant, because both a successful and a failing company can engage in anticompetitive business practices.

You may have read that in "Guns, Germs, and Steel" by Diamond, which is pop science but highly recommended.

There's an additional distinction between animals that can be domesticated (grown on a farm) and tamed (born in the wild, brought into zoos).

To be domesticated, an animal must have several compatible attributes:

1. Size - It's just not worth it to try to domesticate mice. It's barely worth it to domesticate rabbits. Today, we might domesticate pangolins, rabbits, rats, etc. because cuteness, charisma, or rare medical utility is now valuable enough to have someone specialize in, but you're not going to get the benefits of millenia of breeding the best sheep for domestication.

2. Temperament - An animal must be docile, able to be calm in reasonably close proximity to humans. Typically this means herding or flocking social herbivores, and not flighty, vicious ones.

3. Reproductive rate - If it's going to take multiple generations of farmers to grow one generation of Galapagos tortoises or elephants to maturity, you're not likely to have a self-sustaining farm. A breeding program over centuries becomes a civilization-level project, not a personal project.

4. Diet - Again, today we could hypothetically feed termite larvae to pangolins at comparatively great expense. But if you want millenia of breeding to improve your domestication progress, they're basically going to have to be willing to eat stuff that's easy to provide and that doesn't compete with human diets, such as grass.

Buffalo are not suited to domestication because they fail criteria #2, unlike cows. Diamond argues that this failure is part of why the Europeans colonized the Americas rather than the other way around - Eurasia had horses, cows, sheep, goats, pigs, wheat, barley, rice, and more, the Americas had buffalo, llamas, deer, beans, and maize (the latter two being great grains in calories per acre, but not half as good as modern corn, and not easy to farm without draft animals).
Very cool and also very simple as I’d expect from Cloudflare.

But I have a question - why not make inference as easy as the translation? Why do I have to run that in a worker rather than just as a simple API call? That would be much simpler.

>> Tailored propaganda, scams, spams, and harassment at a scale that was never seen before.

I believe the state of these subjects right now is already alarming without AGI. You can't exacerbate the horror about the level of tailored propaganda and scams, etc., which you can't even foresee yourself. It isn't quantifiable.

>>Each of us could unknowingly interact with multiple LLMs everyday which would only have one purpose: manipulate us with a never-seen before success rate at a lower cost than ever.

You would build resistance pretty quickly.

>> At some point AI generated content could become more common than human content, while still being indistinguishable.

Oh, there were some numbers on that one. The number of images generated with AI is already several magnitudes larger than the number of photos humanity has produced since the invention of photography. No AGI is required either.

>> Good enough automated online propaganda could routinely start (civil)wars or genocides,

It already does, without AGI. The Black Rock guys say it's good, - war is good for business. You can squeeze the markets, make money on foreseeable deficits.

>> What's worse is that all of this, would not just be possible, but available to every sociopath on earth, not just the rich ones.

But guns available to every sociopath on earth too...

All of your arguments concern how those with malicious intent can harm us further. I would argue that Sam Altman as the sole controller of AGI is a rather unsettling prospect. If only one country possessed a nuclear weapon, that country would certainly use it against its adversaries. Oh wait, that's already a part of history...

Use the code/model included here: https://huggingface.co/mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.1

This is not really true anymore, as the "consumer GPU" backends have very flexible quantization. Llama.cpp has like a dozen steps between 2 and 6 bit, and exLlamav2 will literally do an arbitrary decimal bpw.

It sort of matters with bigger models trying to squeeze into a server GPU, with the (currently) inflexible vLLM 4-bit quantization.

I think its just a standard set by Llama.
