Google Glass was released almost a decade ago, I'm not convinced the tech isn't there. I also had a RECON Mod Live HUD for my Snowboard Goggles which was released in 2011 which had a unit size not that far off from the Google Glass.

It's disappointing that in 2023 there isn't something even remotely close (or better) to tech that was available 10+ years ago in the case of the RECON Mod Live.
So ... in this example, your job is continually feeding information to the AI from various sources. Why would the AI not be automatically hooked up to all those sources? Building a system that can do that is essentially trivial with the OpenAI API.
"Spy cameras" like these have been available cheaply for years. The only thing new here is the Ray-Ban brand connection.
Paraphrasing: this code is unreadable so let me show you some code that is even harder to read.
This happened with the Warcraft remake as well. Fans are trying to pick up the slack.
That's just at the codebase end of it.

But at the infra end of it, it's a different story. AWS is suited towards a very different scale of development effort than Deno currently is. The effort required from scratch to securely and reliably get to a point where a dev can just name a queue is substantial in AWS. You really need account hierarchies, guard rails, roles, permissions, delegated IaC etc etc in place to be able to do that - otherwise it eventually gets out of hand.

AWS is geared towards larger dev teams or groups of dev teams, while (to me at least without using it) Deno seems far more oriented at the smaller scale set and forget PaaS oriented teams - eg Heroku refugees etc. Those teams could very well outgrow Deno and need AWS at some stage though.
The strategy to appease by finding additional revenue sources seems flawed. Regardless of these additional revenue sources, you're still leaving money on the table by not rolling back. Ideally you roll back and add the additional revenue sources.

To be clear, they shouldn't roll back. Because it's shitty. But that's the reason - "It's shitty" - not "we can add additional revenue sources elsewhere too." If you validate ads team's concern for revenue but then dont maximize revenue then you should expect them to be dissatisfied.
Not Lisp, no. COBOL was like picking your nose with boxing gloves on (h/t Michael Pavlinch). It was appallingly clumsy to use. Lisp was like programming directly in the compiler's abstract syntax tree, with both the plusses and the minuses of that. It was almost the opposite extreme from COBOL.

Or to put it a different way: I don't program in Lisp because that language isn't a good fit for how my brain works and the kind of problems I work on. I don't program in COBOL because I don't like reading things that take that long to come to the point.
Show HN: Scraping WallStreetBets and using GPT to calculate stock sentiment
Hey HackerNews,

I built a web app that scrapes wallstreetbets and various other stock adjacent subreddits, when I find a comment with a stock ticker I feed it into ChatGPT and ask if the comment is bullish or bearish on the ticker.

I do a lot of different stuff across the site with the data. The homepage contains a leaderboard of all the symbols and you can see the sentiment with which they're being mentioned. This page (https://monkeemath.com/pages/advanceddata) gives you the percent chance of the price going up or down based on yesterdays sentiment (purely historically calculated). This page lets you see the mention sentiment/volume mapped over the price movement of the associated stock (https://monkeemath.com/pages/movementgraph).

Please let me know what you think! Feedback is very appreciated!
No, Quests are mobile, that's why they have such low processing power
Google loves to talk about billions of users. That is quite a few nines. Obviously there’s fewer users of cloud than search. But an engineer can only care about so many, before they need to save their sanity. Human attention is the one thing that’ll never scale.
Any place people doing such grafting are congregating?

I've often pondered if taking some random chunk of weights from the middle of a trained model, and dumping it into some totally different model might perform better than random initialization when the scale gets big enough.

I live in rural America, but agrarian does not always mean abundant or diverse. The lamb at the butcher shop comes from about 2 hours away, as does the cream line milk. My beef comes from a family friend 2 hours the other direction. Could I buy a whole lamb from the FFA kids at the fair? Sure, but I don't need a whole lamb and it is more of a charity "for the kids" situation than a good value. Talking with ranchers in both this country and others, I suspect that some urban markets may actually have better access than we do - because they are targeting sales to specific groups (areas with large Muslim communities come to mind...) that they know want the product.
holy shit, that works!

Love this. For some reason I thought of those science experiments along the lines of "Our super powerful microscopes and cameras can now record chemical reactions in real time!" This is a case of "Yes, right there! 'If we don't make this shitty change we all miss our bonus' is exactly how enshittification happens!".
They're voice assistants with a button on the glasses. It's a half-baked idea that lacks utility.

I mean not really surprising. The future programming paradigm is writing high level descriptions of stuff, letting the generative AI write the code for you, and then finetuning it.
Apple comes to mind as a company with some degree of long term vision and strong leadership. They are meticulous about maintaining their brand, and so far have resisted the enshitification.

They also have more cash than they know how to spend. So maybe the pressure to increase revenue this quarter is just lower in general.
We'll have jobs, but they sure as shit won't be worth $150k anymore.

That works for a straightforward compiler error, but not for plot or logic errors in prose, which cannot be detected automatically.
I don’t disagree with the fact that all these things (government, psychiatry etc) function similar to how religion used to function, but I do vehemently disagree with the fact that these things are bullshit.
Ever thought that the reason why things never disappear is cause they have a function that’s useful? And maybe the reason why they’re constantly changing is because the people who study them are in a constant process of identifying their useful aspects and isolating those useful aspects from the dead weight: throwing out the bath water and keeping the baby so to speak?

Edit: and most importantly, the fact that they have changed makes them something new that should be re-evaluated on its own.

1. Flag content you feel isn't appropriate for HN.

2. Email mods at hn@ycombinator.com requesting that specific sites be deprecated and/or penalised.

As for the latter, I'm aware that general news and ideological sites are deprecated. I'm not aware that any mainstream corporate sites which have not engaged in vote-juicing practices are penalised.

Does this work for addiction or just dependence? Can we see some of the “mountains of clinical data on the topic”?
Hint: Immersive Generative AI is the killer app.

Radiance fields, Gaussian Splatter, Photogrammetry, and other computational photographic techniques are where this is headed. It's not that much overhead to render a stereoscopic view from the same dataset. That camera array on the back of your phone is more than capable of hand tracking.

Being able to capture "spatial video" is the hook Apple is using to sell their top-of-the-line iPhone 15 Pro Max handsets. You can already achieve this to a degree[^1] with tools like Lifecast[^2], but when Apple throws their billion-dollar marketing chops behind it, you get it integrated into a dominant ecosystem.

MacOS doesn't do capability based security, it does permission flags instead.[1] A permission flag is the clunky thing we all have learned to hate that smartphones do, instead of the elegance that is capability based security.[2]

Let's say you want to buy an ice cream cone, and pay for it.

Think of permission flags as signing a "Power of Attorney" letter, and handing that over to Dairy Queen. Every time you get a cone, they just take the money out of your account. But they could also sell your house. You can't limit the side effects of the permission you give, it's all or nothing.

On the other hand, capability based security is like taking a $5 capability out of your wallet (in the US, a piece of paper with Lincoln on it), and paying directly for that transaction, one time, at the time it is needed. The most you can lose is that $5. You're not risking your home, just to get ice cream.

The OS market is deranged. Capability based security is something that's been required since persistent internet connections became a thing. Clearly blaming everything else, the users, admins, programmers, compilers, language design, hasn't worked.

I'm a simple man. At work I have a Cherry Stream. At home I have a Cherry Stream. I also have a backup on hand (Cherry Stream). Two are black and one is white.

This is unbelievable. Imagine how different the world would be today if this had gone the other way.

That's obviously the way to go, but… Where does the 99% come from?
The claim is that plants cannot run nor fight so their defenses must be chemical (or physical, like spines or needles or camouflage) in nature.

It's far more difficult for a prey animal to have its muscles/fat/organs suffused with chemicals that will kill/injure its likely predators, especially if its predators have similar metabolic pathways as itself -- it'd be at risk of poisoning itself if the poison broke free!

Animals certainly fight back against being eaten (running away, fighting, etc) but once they're dead their meat (barring like, snake venom glands or pufferfish or other poison/venom-suffused sea creatures) won't fight back.

Obviously "plants are poison" is phrased for shock value and there are traditions and safe handling practices (like "cooking", or "not eating green potatoes" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solanine) for plants that remove, denature, or prevent the formation of defensive chemicals.
Had a Logitech G-413 mechanical keyboard - it was lovely until the keycaps like ALT Left Shift and Left Control started fading after 2 years of heavy daily use - not very impressed and a warranty claim was not worth it also could not source keycaps for the weirdo Romer G switches they use.

Gave up and thought about a Keychron K8 but was weary of the small form factor so I settled on a Logitech MX Keys as well.

Yeah I think it's one of those features that people generally steer away from. Ironically, if you stick to the "Rails way" of doing things I don't think you would ever encounter it.
But you're not saying what the difference is.

Laws can be broken, so why are they different than a recommendation?

I can tell you, "don't touch that hot pan" and it's a recommendation but you can still do it. The government can say "don't speed" and it's a recommendation but you can still do it.
"It takes only a one token error to have code that doesn't compile, execute, throws exceptions, or to be wrong in some serious way."

So does my code though. You can take this code, put it into xcode and then ask GPT about any errors. Reiterate and repeat. I did the same while building some Chrome plugins.
Right, but this isn't a what question, it's a when to do what question. I might know a knot, but I don't know when to use that knot and when it ought to be avoided. That's what I am getting at.

Even under the "bend" page in Wikipedia, sometimes the knots are merely described.
Black tape and paint both exist.

You have no idea what you're talking about, but I'm glad you feel safe on the bus. Criminality stats are low, so the chances of being assaulted on our light rail or buses is indeed low, but it only takes one incident to lead to loss of life or injury. I'm not a "scared man", I'm trying to prepare myself for unhinged situations, which we've been witnessing at an increased rate after 2020, when our city/county reduced police and law enforcement presence.

Here's an article about the massive rise in homicides in our county since 2019 [1]. Maybe the numbers are "low" to you, but it's 1000x higher than in countries such as Japan. I won't go further into the reasons why due to risk of being downvoted by people unwilling to accept the new reality of west coast urban life.

> I'm surprised other commenters are surprised to be honest.

I'm surprised because I've never met anybody like this, and while I've heard about Mike Pence I'm not sure I really believed it. Thinking about it more, since I don't hang out in any male-only spaces (where would I find such a thing?), almost by definition I'm never going to meet anybody socially who follows this rule.

Also, as other commenters have pointed out, this philosophy completely falls apart unless you genuinely believe that everyone is heterosexual, or you refuse to be friends with anyone who is not.

Interesting - this is pretty insightful in terms of product market fit.

It seems more of a convenient GoPro POV camera form factor that allows more freedom from extra equipment (sunglasses versus some sort of helmet strap/chest strap) and less pre-planning.

I could also see some sort of application where the creator is live-streaming a concert or event to Instagram reels and getting feed back via the headphones from the internet audience on where to go/what to do next.

Definitely can see how it fits directly with FB/Insta in that it gets more people "creating" content for the rest of us (ergo more content to monetize for ads).
> Wow dang, they really should make this more obvious.

How? It's not mentioned anywhere that this is about displaying content, but it's very clear it's about capturing video and listening to audio only.

Or you want them to put "Notice: No display is included in the device" on the landing page?
I’ve thought this for months now, since GPT has become a go to tool I use it all the time for questions that Google has no chance of answering. E.g I’ve just played G - C - Am on my piano. What’s a good next chord? It understand music theory and gives about 5 optional chords and describes what each one may do for the song (add suspense, resolve something, lighten it, etc). Google feels really last gen very quickly. They’re basically AltaVista at this point. And ChatGPT is what AskJeeves claimed to be!
In SF, we subdivide the partys in to groups (moderates and progressives), but even that is unacceptably simple.

E.g. I am a moderate on housing policy (except the finite resource of public open space), I am generally progressive on transportation policy (we need to dedicate at least 25% of streets explicitly to prioritize non-automobile traffic if we have any change at growing or even fighting climate change). I am moderate on public anti-social behavior (when you don't get punished for breaking into a random person's car, you suddenly create a pipeline to organized crime, we see by bippers dumping tourists luggage a block away after taking the items they can fence). I am a progressive on criminal justice reform (I am convinced by the data that our prisons are crimongenic, however, I think the focus should be on prison reform).

It's entirely plausible to have a nuanced view on all theses issues, but most people don't want to think too hard about things, and politics as team-sports is a much easier and instinctual concept when it comes to the principal-agent problem.
