Thank you! I wasn't going to read the article for the same reason, but your recommendation changed my mind, and it was actually a good read.

It's definitely diminished by it's non qualified citation of Zimbardo, but there's some insight there regardless.

Ultimately the point Moxie is making is served by the stanford prison drama play just as well as if it had been an actual experiment.
Tell HN: Please stop sending AI-generated job applications (whoishiring threads)
Via yesterday's whoishiring thread, I received more than 70 emails. A good percentage of them (nearly half of them) came with unedited AI-generated cover letters.

Please don't do this. I spend time going through the resume, the various links in it, and then responding to everyone who applied. But this time, with so much AI-generated verbiage I simply don't want to.

I understand non-native speakers of English wanting to use AI. But frankly, just saying "here's my resume (and github/blog/publications etc)" is better than ChatGPT content. Writing longer emails creates an obligation for us (at the hiring end), and when it's AI-generated you're just wasting our time. If there's a distinct AI-generated tone to the email, I'm inclined to not consider the application.
Agreed - you have a good perspective in a sea of internet pessimism.

It isn't about preference. It's well understood that refusing cash payments has an outsized impact on both the impoverished and underrepresented classes.

One easy way to keep the homeless from coming in to make purchases is to refuse cash payments.

The government's job isn't to cater to business preferences it is to look out for the well-being of the people.
Can you expand, or link to an explanation?

But containers, X forwarding, visualization, and OpenGL is a complete shitshow. I have apps that work outside of a container but freeze the UI that the mouse pointer won't even work when run from within a container.
> As a young person, though, I think the best thing you can do is to ignore all of that and simply observe the older people working there.

> They are the future you. Do not think that you will be substantially different. Look carefully at how they spend their time at work and outside of work, because this is also almost certainly how your life will look. It sounds obvious, but it’s amazing how often young people imagine a different projection for themselves.

> Look at the real people, and you’ll see the honest future for yourself.

Maybe I'm the outlier, but this is 100% not true for me. My title, Product Manager, didn't exist 30 years ago. I was a developer 20 years ago, and 10 years before that I was managing and supporting a network of 200 Mac Pluses and the like. I've done other things besides, and at no point did the older people where I worked look the way I did years later.

I do focus a significant amount of energy on keeping up with the development of technology, and that has changed so much that I couldn't help but be different.

But I think that applies to everyone working in technology. The developers I work with now are using TypeScript and we organize using Notion. Ten years ago it was PHP and Jira. Ten years before that it was Java and Office docs. Who knows what it will be in ten years, but almost certainly none of those. Two week sprints have been a thing for fifteen years, so maybe that will still be true, but I doubt it.

Plan for change. It's coming for all of us.
The word on the street among the researchers I know from my grad school days is that this is basically a bunch of datasets that were created earlier on for specific papers, and the subset of researchers are repackaging them as a kind of weird academia twitter winnertakeall thing.

The author list also reminds me of the embarrassing practices of the physics community…

Nothing wrong with releasing a webpage with a list of datasets, but the press and need for a whole big announcement that claims it will change robotics makes them seem desperate.
I thought it was all about the great “ay-eye” shift these days.
Are you concerned that it advantages Google to have a cozy relationship with authorities everywhere? Do you think being friends with police big and small everywhere is powerful? Can politicians even offer "Do your job" to the same extent?

It twists things.
Not sure where this optimism comes from, but alright.
Here's another fun US Supreme Court decision in a similar vein:

https://www.jdsupra.com/legalnews/canceling-the-word-shall-i...

>In 1995, for instance, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a decision in Gutierrez de Martinez v. Lamagno that under certain contexts, shall could be construed as may. The decision does not imply that shall always means may, but rather that unless expressly defined, context determines whether shall is mandatory or precatory. [...] Congress also issued the Plain Writing Act of 2010 (the Act), which required all federal agencies to follow the federal plain language guidelines and use must instead of shall when imposing requirements.
He/she means that there have been good things coming out of the NSA/NIST collaborations (another example is SHA0->SHA1, introducing a "mysterious" left shift that made SHA1 much stronger), and the bad ones are caught quickly.
Maybe they haven't memorized which platforms the BBC is currently on and assume it was never on X.
Yes. For a model within the limits of the head requirements, however, you wouldn’t be able to see a quality difference from regular attention. Non determinism is a performance price; regular transformers may also suffer from it depending on the implementation.
Going against what's plainly and clearly written in favor of an imagined complete opposite congressional "intent" would be appalling - how many congresscritters voted for the bill as a compromise precisely because the "and" made the section more permissive?

And what about the general principle that ambiguity is decided against the drafter? This isn't a contract, but surely a similar principle should apply to the direct removal of individual liberty by the government. If congress didn't actually do the diligence to enact the more restrictive ruleset, then it seems that the correct judgement is the one that gives the government a lesser ability to keep people in cages.
I don't know? I'm mostly arguing against the industry-wide comment, and thinking from the perspective of someone who has been laid off.

I think individual companies should do whatever they want (within legal bounds), but such a big overhaul just seems ripe to screw people over.
SVE is exactly what I've been interested in seeing illustrated like this :).

It's absurd to me that Arm hasn't created this themselves. officedaytime's page is such a nice thing to have for x86.
I dunno. Try watching it. It’s one of the few movies I’ve seen that I’d call literally “life changing” and certainly convinced me that nuclear war is the most immoral act our species is (currently) capable of undertaking.
Framework has no enterprise products other than BYOD and AMD already did the work.
Then you don't get to argue by them being safer overall. That argument then amounts to lie when the actual topic is general driving ability.

Second, then use only data about human drivers in perfect situations to compare. Their accident rates also go down.
Only if you use the runfile, but that breaks yet other packages that specify 'cuda' as an apt dependency.

Your 'cuda' packages should use '>=' not '=='

e.g. 'cuda-12' should depend on nvidia>=525 NOT nvidia==525
It did try to handle it, by coming to a complete stop as fast as possible and avoiding further movement. I definitely think it should be smart enough to not stop “on top of an obstacle” under the car… but as far as everything before it stopping on the pedestrians leg… seemed like it would be hard to get a human driver to do better given the likely lack of a lot of “hit and run happens right in front of me” training data… zebras vs horses and all that. I expect one they will definitely add more “accident close by” data to the training data… and two they will get the damn thing not to stop on top of an unknown obstacle.
Dealing with QWERTY
Except this article is about irrigating with sea water to mix with fresh water. A salt water marsh is not a particularly concentrated salt water, and is diluted by rain and water flow above and under ground. The brine from desalination is extremely concentrated and toxic. In theory you could dilute it with large amount of fresh water to make salt marshes, but the entire point is to make fresh water from salt water. For a salt marsh you’re better doing as in the article you linked and pumping sea water from the ocean.

As an onlooker to this comment chain I feel like you completely ignored his entire comment, which I thought was a decent argument, and latched on only to the last sentence.

Yes, they don’t output random looking things necessarily. For example a hash function could be collision resistant but not pre image resistant, or vice versa. There’s much more nuance in these definitions.
Cool so those bowl prices will decrease with the reduced cost in labor right? Right?
Surprisingly this repo is BSD licensed so it might even outgrow nvidia. Eigen is pretty strong but this new MatX syntax might catch on, especially with easy GPU integration.
It's not the decibel level but the frequency spectrum that is the problem. Windmill noise is low frequency and can be intrusive kilometers away.
This is slightly similar to how some countries skipped landline phones and jumped straight to mobile networks.

It makes sense - landlines are on the way out and require a much bigger initial investment to lay lines. Cell networks only require building towers and their backhaul networks.

Countries invest in infrastreucture at differerent times. Time of the ages.
> ActivityPub, the protocol, is the freedom you describe.

Disagree. ActivityPub, the protocol, is oriented around a world of first- and second-class citizens (server operators and users), and very much nudges you towards living under the thumb of a local petty tyrant. Yes, you notionally have a way out (although in practice if the cabal (TINC) decides to defederate you there's not much you can do), but defaults and practices matter.
I met Ben when he visited UCSB in 2004 or so to demo Processing. I was a dummy and thought my own visualization app was "better" and didn't pay much attention to him or talk with him after.

I seriously admire his dedication to processing all these years, this must be tough!
Slamming brakes for not reason IS being complete jackass. And if you do it frequently enough, you have no business being on road.
I happily ran Monterey on a mid-2012 MacBook with OCLP. I only bought an Apple Silicon MacBook because the hinge got too loose to keep the display upright. Yes, the new computer is significantly faster, but I could have lived with the older one. So, three cheers for OCLP!
Humans are overall actually good drivers, better then AI drivers currently.

Will you publish benchmarks for e.g. K80? Or provide a way for users to contribute? It's really handy to know, e.g. comparable to what is Resnet50 inference on a bunch of architectures.
GP comment was being down voted at the time of my reply. There’s no objective measure for richness of a culture, so you can’t guarantee anything of the sort. People are into whatever they are into.
How about "This note is a legal tender at its face value for all debts public and private"?
"Beautifully crafted" and "Atlassian" only belong in the same sentence with an odd number of nots.
Exactly that's why AMDs Laptop chips are monolithic and not chiclet.
> But then, I register who is sitting in those seats. It’s usually almost all predominantly unhealthy looking middle-aged white men, who it is clear from a glance have spent literally hundreds of hours of their lives over the past year in these airplanes.

Mentioning people's skin color unnecessarily should also be "treyf", I think
The Post article says:

> The law was later deemed, in part, to be unconstitutional by a federal court, which found that it violated the Sixth Amendment guarantee of a trial by jury.

Which appears to be incorrect:

https://www.prisonlegalnews.org/news/2011/mar/15/second-circ...

> The Second Circuit Court of Appeals found that New York’s Persistent Felony Offender Statute (PFOS), N.Y. Penal Law § 70.10 , which allows enhancement of sentences for prior felony convictions, violated the Sixth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. However, that finding was later reversed by an en banc ruling.

Cash bail is a ridiculous concept, and it's good to get rid of it.
> They are the future you. Do not think that you will be substantially different

I don't remember exactly if it was this post or a similar advice somewhere else but this advice made me leave my job at BigTech back in 2015

In hindsight I lost a lot of money because of that :') because the company's stock 10x'd at it's peak.

Overall, I still think it's a reasonable advice. The behaviours in these companies are largely driven by incentives and for most people this results in a replicable behaviour (almost like a dog being given treats)

Though there will always be outliers.

But another thing that struck me as I was reading this was how, based on your state of mind at that point, a simple blog post can make you take significant life decisions.
I never understood why north Americans really don't like being called lucky. I'd rather be lucky any time, anywhere, in any context because you can become a hard worker but can't become lucky

Writing that would not have changed my response. The people I’ve cited have a similar level of awareness of climate issues as your average British person.
Ask HN: How do you describe what you do at parties?
You meet someone and they ask "what do you do?" -- what is your response?

When I say "I work as a software engineer for a fintech startup" I never get a follow up question and the convo moves on. It probably doesn't help that I work remotely from a rural-ish area so most people don't work in a similar role.

I know the default answer is "don't talk so much about your work" but I put a lot of myself into my work and it is my main identity outside of my family (which takes 99.99% of my time). So I'd like to share something about that side of myself.

What do you all think?
I thought this was an Intel GPU for a second :'(
The number of warrants that can be served has nothing to do with the price of beer. Either a judge has approved the warrant based on probable cause presented to him/her by the police, or they haven't.

If the police could hypothetically toss every house in the country twice a day and once on Sundays, that has precisely nothing to do with anything. So long as the only houses they DO toss are ones where a judge has reviewed the evidence, and determined that there is probable cause that tossing the house will turn up fruits or instrumentalities of a crime. Capability to do a thing has nothing to do with approval to do a thing under the law or ethics. I'm fully capable of being a (very bad) male prostitute, but I refrain from doing that for many obvious moral and legal reasons.
The alleged proof that they configured the ports wrong is a picture from their Intel framework review. "We're using the same pictures as a previous review because it's the exact same laptop." You can see the same picture here: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2023/05/review-framework-lap...

The Ars review also even mentions this problem: "Framework also says the rear ports enter a "high-power mode" when USB-A modules are connected to them, which can reduce battery life."

Either way, glad we have a new product we can blame the user for holding wrong.
> download once on the integration server.

Have you seen most CI systems in the wild? Majority of projects just wipe everything and do a fresh install, on every single run.

Maybe it will be counter-productive to shrink the packages, since it would encourage that behavior of not caring about local cache even more.
There are downsides to cards, tracking a card with your name makes surveillance too easy compared to cash.

> If you start working out 3x a week, you will continue doing this and be physically fit. If you drink alcohol 3x a week, you will continue to do this and become wrinkled and grumpy.

What about working out 3x a week and drinking alcohol 3x a week? Potentially that could be a sweet spot for sociability and activity. Compared to doing neither 3x a week, what do you think would be better?

Both drinking and exercise mean different things to different people. Running a 10k 3x a week with a glass of wine after would be fine. Blacking out 3x a week off cheap vodka while riding the stationary bike would be a different story.
Even when working in office, when I have questions, I always ping my colleagues on IM first, instead of directly walking to their desk or shouting at them.

It's respectful and could be turned into a policy.
Designing neural net architectures seems like exactly the sort of problem that neural nets ought to beat humans at handily. I'd be surprised if some kind of self-optimizing architecture wasn't standard in a decade or two.
You can paint an elephant pink all you want. This is an ad and is being pushed for clicks.
You are correct. That was badly edited on my part: I wrote half a sentence about the first synthesis but forgot to remove it when talking about the popularization.
i have a fairly simple policy.

if you send me unsolicited email, i will actively boycott your company. not just for myself, but anyone and anywhere i have influence. i have significant influence in my very large companies product choices, and unsolicited pandering is the one perfect way to get me to go out of my way to ensure that our business has nothing to do with you, ever.

if you are indexed on google (1st page, 10th page, it doesn't matter), and it describes your thing, you're done. spend your money elsewhere. the rest is a useless gimmick.
> Star Trek utilises transporters ... because spending days or millennia going from ship to surface or between stars in a galaxy is utterly nonviable for ... television

Transporters specifically were "invented" due to budget constraints on the original series. The original plan was for the crew to use a shuttlecraft whenever they visited a planet, but that proved too costly-- In the absence of CGI, that would have to be done with practical effects, i.e. a model shuttle filmed landing on model terrain. The transporter shots, on the other hand, were really just a fancy cross-fade.
Yes, but after the fresh water is used, it will flow downwards and rejoin the ocean.

It's called the water cycle for a reason. Water doesn't disappear after being used.

In any event, the Greenland ice sheet is on track to melt over the next few centuries and add 2,850,000 cubic kilometers of water to the ocean. We're not in danger of making it too salty with desalination.
Also with felony conviction and with the records being there for however long they are it makes it nigh impossible to get a job once your prison sentence is over.

Once you're out you still need to survive. And if the only way of survival is more crime that's what you choose.
Because it's embedded in their culture that hard work = success and success comes from hard work and staying hungry. They have to believe this because it's essential to feeling good about the sky-high inequality in various countries where this is worshipped (and more importantly - to feel justified in maintaining the unequal status quo).
So it is not about incompetence but about wanting to provide a service that is vastly inferior to what they used to do on hardware a fraction as powerful as what they have today.

If what you write is correct they actually want me to have almost as bad results on Google as the ones I get on Bing.

I'll take your word for it.
The price is not really for the water, which is too cheap to Meyer, but for the infrastructure, which is per liter transmitted a much higher fraction of the cost than industrial/agricultural users.

Paper is pretty upfront about that, "we provide the Open X-Embodiment (OXE) Repository, which includes a dataset with 22 different robotic embodiments from 21 different institutions". Some of the data is new from Google's robots, but the rest is not.

The author list is long because Google is a big company with big teams.

Aside from this paper, I do think that generative modeling is going to change robotics. It seems likely that large transformer models could learn to do many simple tasks in response to natural-language instructions. This could be the burger-flipping robot.
Again? This happened some time ago with different search terms, and they fixed it server-side. I believe it was related to their autocompletion thing ("Siri suggested website").

That's a fair point. I'll look into it.
I imagine it is only a matter of time before they do have a world news account. Meanwhile, there are plenty of mirror accounts (rss posters) of their headlines on Mastodon.
