> I love public transit but I don't know how to make everyone else love it

By solving the following problems:

- Waiting in the bitter cold / snow, or baking in the sun

- Allow me to transport medium/large size dogs (most restrict animals to being in crates that can fit on a lap), without being a bother to other riders (good luck)

- Reasonable wait times. Even better, do it regardless of time of day

I love my car. I've been in public transit in 5 states and 5 countries, and I'm always whelmed at best. It suffices on a good day.
So you're saying that I can auto generate some super weird cool images that people really want to try scanning, to see if it works.

Then, I can print up some stickers and post them around town. Scanning the image will send the end users to a specially crafted phising URL...
vax does prevent both, in the sense it dramatically lowers the rate. they're just not 100% effective.
> There have been actually many positive theories trying to explain what particles dark matter could be, they've all been proven wrong.

Not at all. Ordinary neutrinos and MACHOs (black holes, rogue gas giants, extremely faint dwarf stars) are mostly ruled out. Supersymmetry is not looking promising but certainly not proven wrong. Sterile neutrinos and axions are very much live candidates.

> However, we are now left with no room in our understanding of particles

There's plenty of room. Quantum gravity is obviously the elephant in the room, but even aside from that, and off the top of my head: the standard model doesn't account for neutrino masses ,matter/antimatter asymmetry, or why the lepton masses are related, and it gets the magnetic moment of the muon wrong. The existence of physics beyond the standard model is certain. We just don't know what it is yet.
You genuinely just agreed with the majority of the points made in this essay.
> He argues that even if the technical problems were solved, the social and economic changes promised by cryptocurrency are undesirable.

I didn’t realize his argument is merely that crypto will change the world in an undesirable way. I thought he was arguing that crypto will be ineffective at changing it at all. That makes his argument much easier to address.

Investing isn’t about judging a technology as good or bad, it’s about judging it as profitable or unprofitable. If he’s not arguing that the line won’t go up, then his argument is frankly irrelevant to me as an investor.

I empathize with people who believe crypto will have an overall negative effect on the world, but it’s not like it will go away if investors refuse to buy units of it. And if crypto does cause real, lasting social and economic changes over the coming decades, I personally doubt that a layman video journalist will be the one to accurately predict the nature of that transformation. The most accurate prediction is probably going to come from someone much more versed in macroeconomics and/or the tech itself. Probably from someone who understands how proof of stake works.
Pretty sure we haven't yet mastered planetary engineering, bro. "Boiling" a planet is many orders of magnitude bigger than our entire energy budget.

Many cities are laid out for cars.

Fixing that is much harder than switching to EVs and would have a massive environmental impact. Buildings have 2x more global warming footprint than transportation.
Yes, however it defeats one of the main point of ECH, that is encrypting the SNI. Since the domain is leaked in plaintext DNS.
If UUIDv4 was all that ever existed, there would be no need to validate anything apart of the fact that it's supposed to contain 32 hexadecimal characters.

All other versions, including the new v7, attach meaning to certain bits of the identifier. That cat has been out of the bag for a long time, so now everyone needs to maintain code to ensure that some rogue node doesn't spew back-dated identifiers belonging to the wrong department.

UUIDs are 128 bits, or 16 bytes. They have infinitely many possible string representations. Those strings are not the value, they're a transformation of the value.
Because the evidence doesn't point that way, and it's very expensive to make such an assumption, especially when much of the rest of the world doesn't follow.
> For example to disconnect the drive one needs to enter admin's password. That's done because veracrypt doesn't store it.

What? For me, VeraCrypt can mount and unmount volumes (on Windows 11) without ever prompting for UAC. It could also do the same on my other, Windows 10 PC.

I'm sure you can. That's social engineering, not SQL injection.

I don't think it's easy (or even possible) to build a completely secure system.

But... for most security vulnerabilities (such as SQL injection) there are known, reliable mitigations.

That's not the case for prompt injection, which is why we need to treat it differently from other classes of vulnerability.

The essay was written in early 2015 and you can further interpret the author's idea of "boring" versus "innovative" technologies through the lens of what they were using at Etsy from 2007-2014 (NodeJS was initially released in 2009).

If a SoC has a co-processor with proprietary firmware, potentially for things like security, remote management, bringing up the main CPU, etc, peripherals with proprietary firmware, potentially with DMA access, or firmware operating at ring -2/-3, they can sidestep OpenWRT and you wouldn't even know it from the OpenWRT side of things.
100 years sounds short-sighted for something that's supposed to be "universally" unique. We're already having problems with the 32-bit Unix timestamp not being large enough. If you're willing to use 160-bit (or longer) identifiers, you might as well give a few more bits to the timestamp. Round it up to an even number of base-62 characters, too. That part of KSUID has always struck me as a weird decision.

I wish UUIDv7 pulled the version/variant bits up front, though, just to make sure that the identifiers don't all start with null bytes.

Or equally, you wouldn't expect a word processor to refuse to print morally questionable material.

The morals that leading models like ChatGPT are also aligned to a very American puritanism - ChatGPT will refuse to discuss sex, for example - and errs on the side of conservatism.

Using it for a few years now, and I'd hesitate not one bit to recommend. It's not as "technical" as said in comments either tbh. But us in HN are not qualified to call it non tech friendly I guess.

Performance is great, nearly "metal" SSD speeds. I use it with a hidden partition of an external HDD, and works great too, once I got Windows to stop asking me to formally that partition.

The only feature I wish it could have is better Yubikey (and alike) integration. I can use those static passwords as an encryption key, but I'd need something better.
The first approach will be significantly cheaper if using the cloud.

It allows you to use spot/ephemeral instances and scale down capacity to almost zero cost without any loss in availability.

Single server in the cloud is great for dev environments and if you don't care about uptime. But given that poor uptime is toxic for customer retention only incompetent businesses would deliberately not choose to use something better suited. Especially when it's so much cheaper.
but why decode it at all, if it's meant to be opaque?
There is a clear distinction between audiophile snake oil, and detecting artifacts from a lossy compressed mp3.

You shouldn't conflate that with things like telling the difference between a 44.1KHz and 96KHz sample rate, which is bollocks.

That said, it's a good practice for any archivist to source the highest quality digital versions of albums possible, in case they end up befriending or needing to barter with aliens with much more sensitive ears.

Aligning LLMs doesn't make any sense because aligning intelligence as we know it doesn't make any sense. And LLMs are nothing if not made in our image.
Some time ago - just a couple of years ago, I decided to get back to the roots and to listen some Iron Maiden. After a visit to the Brown Sector I made out with the full discography in FLAC but also I got a copy of Powerslave in AAC ripped from iTunes.

And all I can say what I really, really hear the difference.

Because iTunes version is mastered to sound good in iPods so it has a quite noticeable bass boost all over the album, which is extremely noticeable on my 2.0 acoustic which itself has a good bass boost, so this version sounds quite muffled compared to the FLAC version from the CD (CP32-5043).

But on the go, with my CX300-II / CX3.00 there is no noticeable difference.

Hey HN,

I introduced dialoqbase (LangChain wrapper) to HN when it was in its early stages a few weeks ago, with limited features and some bugs. Now, dialoqbase has reached version 1.0.0, where multi-user support has been introduced. The application was initially designed from a single user's point of view, but I decided to add multi-user support since I received many requests via email, Twitter DM, etc. Multi-user control can be accessed in the admin settings page. Another feature is the improvement of multi-platform support; the bot can now connect to WhatsApp, Telegram, and Discord. Additionally, there have been improvements in TTS and speech to text support on the playground UI. A new PostgreSQL retrieval feature has been added, inspired by Supabase Hybrid Search from LangChain. I would really appreciate receiving feedback :)

> Regardless, businesses have pretty much universally decided to avoid. I think that speaks volumes.

I don't typically make my decisions based on what businesses "universally decide" (have they actually?). Most businesses are shareholder or private corporations that find margin between labor and sales; I instead structured a business as a co-op and that seems to be working just fine. Many businesses profit off polluting the environment or selling weapons; I've never worked DoD or O&G (and never will) and lead an extraordinarily comfortable and privileged life regardless. Many content creator businesses lock their content behind paywalls, riddle their sites with ads and tracking; I put up a simple blog in html and css and my audience might be small but they are engaged and are in conversation with me.

I'm not trying to say i'm a special ethical snowflake that's better than everyone else, I'm saying I don't really take it as a given that "businesses doing things in a certain" way really means much of anything at all. In fact I've found often profit correlates with harm (and that businesses often make decisions that don't lead to long, long-term profits but rather pillage themselves for short-term profits), O&G being a great example, so I might even be able to take "businesses do it that way" as a warning to not do it that way or I might be hurting people.

You don't seem to care that the COVID alarmists are only using anecdata as well. I think if is clear where your sympathies lie.
Discrete event simulations is used to get better utilization of a constrained resource. The fact that hospitals were using it just reinforces that ICU capacity was considered a serious constraint by policymakers. Discrete event simulation will give policy makers more confidence in capacity models but doesn’t improve patient outcomes or reduce treatment time.

Hospital protocols also improved over time to reduce the need for respirators and the disease moderated but there was no magic protocol that really reduced disease progression or duration. Out of my social circle there were anti-vaxers that contracted covid late in the pandemic and spent weeks in the hospital (four total, two deaths) even with late stage protocols.

I think it's safe to say that the purpose of the video is not to provide investment advice.
Looks like a very convoluted way to say that you should avoid mistakes, but with confusion between familiarity and in depth analysis.

Worst surprises generally comes from non verified expectations, and ends up to hard to workaround problems that becomes clear in hindsight «It never really worked that way».

You have better chances to avoid that with tech you are familiar with, but the only real way is to verify how the thing is built, and on what principles, confront that to your knowledge, and if it aligns you have greatly improved the chances of things going smoothly.

Since people are generally not rational and rarely do those checks, when working with a team, going with familiarity is the safe route.

From what I've seen, networking peripherals you can attach to a Pi via USB, or whatever, can't really compete with networking peripherals in routers that are integrated on SoCs/SoMs.
But that choice has absolutely nothing to do with being boring or not. It's a business/product decision.

ChatGPT costs serious money, is easy to integrate with and is great for specific, general tasks. But it hasn't been trained on recent datasets, can't take advantage of internal or custom datasets and has restrictions on how it can be used.

Also most companies will never allow exfiltration of sensitive data to a third party.
More like try watching a comedy where nobody cared about getting the room tone to blend things right, no foley and sound effects work was done, and there was no provision in the budget for fixing things in ADR. See if you make it through the first 10 minutes before feeling the full ticket price was a scam.

Some kind of immersion is a prerequisite to a worthwhile experience. Sound is a pretty cheap and effective feedback medium for player actions, it quickly helps to define and telegraph changes in environments and settings (¿is this a safe encounter or the prelude to a boss fight?) and is crucial in helping to keep engagement during non-playable segments (in the earlier days, sometimes even printing dialogue text to screen was accompanied by sound effects to avoid alienating the player).

Again, the Dell wasn't shitty. You went out of your way to overexaggerate any flaws it may have had lol.
