In most jurisdictions in the US cops won't even investigate a burglary unless somebody gets hurt. They simply have too many higher priorities.

Yes if you can give them video of the bad guy that helps, but only a little. They now have the burglar's face, but that doesn't give them the burglar's address. Maybe your camera got the license plate number of the burglar's car? Won't help: Burglars mostly use stolen plates nowadays because so many people have cameras.

Your best hope is for the burglar to actually hurt one of your neighbors, or the burglary wave becomes so egregious that elected officials notice and put pressure on the cops.

Cameras are not magic crime-stopping devices: They still require police to take action, and when police are motivated to take action, cameras are useful. For simple property crimes which the cops won't investigate, cameras don't do much. You're better off making your home a harder target with heavier doors, bars on the windows, etc because those things encourage the burglars to move on to the next house. Cameras don't do that. Why? Because the burglars know everything I've written above.
The situation is way more complicated than what you seem to have understood. From https://www.thebignewsletter.com/p/never-seen-anything-like-...:

> Last summer, I noted that it takes time for agencies to act, but that they had put a bunch of torpedos in the water, and they would be exploding over the next year and a half. That’s exactly what’s happened. And the consequences are real. The most significant one is that the merger boom that started in the 2010s is now over.

> You wouldn’t realize this success if you listen to the conventional wisdom in politics, because Wall Street is pushing a public narrative that antitrust agencies are losing in courts, and therefore they are losing their ability to stop deals. But this isn’t true, because if it were, you wouldn’t see regular reports from business publications lamenting the decline in deals, and writing things like “The average size of mergers completed is now at the lowest level in 20 years.” And you wouldn’t have deal-makers on CNBC calmly describing how hard it is to get mergers done.

Progress is slow because the judiciary is stacked with ex corporate lawyers and lobbyists who will not interpret the law the way its written but have their own imaginary version based on the Chicago School of Economics' made up models on how the economy works.
Inflation "smooths out" the curves in space-time by stretching space out in an exponential manner. So any curves get flattened until the universe is effectively flat. An inflation-like theory that doesn't stretch space out that much leads to its own mysteries.
The rate of population growth would have to make up for more than the EV conversion rate for this to happen.i highly doubt it can be reached, given the declining birth rate .
Which is the problem of the idea. Any kind of thermal engine, such as a stirling engine, would beat this idea in efficiency with those kinds of temperatures.

Yeah, that counter is separate from a counter embedded in an ASCII string. The one thing that kind of string indicates is that it almost certainly wasn't the first string they tried.
It could take a lot more than luck. If it turns out to be a rabbit hole stick with react unless you have a really good reason for that kind of refactor
Tesla's charger was proprietary so other manufacturers couldn't use it. Meanwhile CCS is an open standard that anyone can use.

What's changed is that last year Tesla decided to publish an open standard. Now that other manufacturers can use the plug, they gave agreed to use Tesla's physical plug design, but with the CCS signaling protocol.

So NACS going forward is more of a new hybrid of the two rather than a switch to Tesla's existing charger. One of the outcomes is that cars equipped with CCS will be able to use NACS with a simple adapter.

Why not use Tesla's signaling protocol? I don't know the details. Maybe Tesla isn't ready or able to create an open standard for that part. Or maybe other manufacturers want to keep the signalling they have to keep adapters simple. In any case only one vehicle and charging station manufacturer (Tesla) will have to make updates on the software side, and to people who don't know the difference between the plug and the software it'll look like Tesla won the charger war.
I don't necessarily agree with you but I agree with this discussion. This kind of long-hard-look at what intelligence means is necessary today. We need to understand what we have here, what is this AI, what is our intelligence, and how much we can rely on AI.

Just 12 months ago if you polled here you would find much more naive opinions. But now we are learning fast to evaluate AI and human work critically. We have had our hundred hours of AI play and all tried to make it stumble, then to make it work, and in the end we are wiser for it.

Regular citizens even know not to trust the bunch of benchmark scores every new model shoves in our eyes, like hardened ML researchers. And basic AI concepts are infiltrating and getting root in the public - model, parameters, tokenisation, datasets, fine-tuning, vector search, and their complex interplay.
Are mergers low because of DOJ “torpedoes” or because debt isnt as cheap as it was 3 years ago?
In a discussion like this you have to mention that Microsoft’s compiler extended volatile to mean atomic[1], although its default behavior depends on target ISA apparently. Regardless, just use c11/c++11 atomics at this point.

>but caring about others as people and not as cogs in a machine is important in building a professional career.

You're ignoring power dynamics. It's impossible for a manager and their reports to have real relationships and conversations. Asking them questions they shouldn't answer honestly is just self-serving.

A manager who wants to "care" about their employees as people is just doing a disservice to those employees. They can be understanding, they can provide flexibility for employees to take care of themselves, but they can't and shouldn't try to ask employees about their personal feelings.

Apparently the contracts for the F35 didn't mention "Intellectual property" at all, and now the government now regrets the oversight (especially with regards to the source code for the software running on those planes) [1]

As for licensing to put the f-22/f-35 in a game/movie, I wonder how much of that is actually needed from a legal perspective, and how much is "lets just do it anyway".

The name is covered by trademark so you need a license to call it "F-35 Lightning", but I don't think the design or shape of an aircraft is covered by copyright or trademark law, so it should be fine if you just avoid the name.

Enterprise Generative AI Pricing Estimator App
My name is Riya, a recent Computer Science graduate from Brown University and current first-year Master's student in Computer Science at Stanford University.

I built the Enterprise Generative AI Pricing Estimator app to help enterprise decision makers determine the ballpark costs to rollout enterprise-wide generative AI capabilities like OpenAI ChatGPT, Google Bard, or large language models (LLMs) apps powered by Generative AI APIs. It focuses on estimating the expenses related to using LLMs for text-related tasks and allows comparisons between different Generative AI models. The app uses a proprietary method to model an enterprise, roles, artifacts usually produced by the roles and context associated with such artifacts, which then serves as input to calculate the benefit and lift from generative AI vs non-GenAI.

Seeking feedback and looking for collaborators to take it to the next level. Also am thinking of making it open-source!

Does this also share back DHT information like a "server"? I am not downloading torrents, but I always wished to have a daemon running on my servers to help the overall DHT networks health. Is there anything like this out there? A DHT server, that only collects, stores and gives back information?
Then you level up to an actual senior engineer and understand that while issues are infinite, you don't have to solve every one of them. Your goal is to identify the smallest set of issues to solve to reach a goal, and that is a problem of exponential complexity outside the reach of machines, as long as P≠NP.

Programming is to software engineering what knowing music theory is to be a composer. LLMs might replace the mechanical aspect of our job, but that was the easy part all along.
Things I've baked which worked:

- HP laserprinter motherboards, 2 of them, one just a few days out of warranty. After a few minutes in the oven they went on to work for years and might still do so for all I know.

- HP JetDirect cards, 3 of them. All worked fine after baking, one of them needed a second bake after about a year. One of those is still in use, the other 2 got fried by lightning strikes - that was before I installed a surge protector in front of the fuse box.

- HP DV6000 motherboard, it worked for a number of years after that and probably still does, the LCD display eventually died which was the end for that piece of plasticky garbage

Notice a trend? HP seems to have had problems during the introduction of the RoHS directive [1].

- Asus something-or-other laptop motherboard, still works, one of the SoDIMMs died which left it with only 2 GB and it got retired

- PSU board for a 24" Hyundai monitor, still works and is hooked up as second monitor to the...

- Apple "Late 2009 27" iMac" graphics card, still works after the first bake, I'm using that machine (running Debian) as my main workstation.

The oven and the BGA reworkstation have saved a lot of equipment from early retirement, both at places I worked as well as here. I just repaired the PSU board for a HP (again HP...) 2910ag switch even though I could have swapped it on warranty because replacing a transistor and resistor is much quicker than going through the motions of a warranty replacement and to be honest also just because I can and to be even more honest because I only found out about the 100 year warranty on these switches after I had already fixed it...

I remember reading something similar about describing a chess game to one of these large language models and being able to find an internal representation of the chessboard in the parameters. Or something like that. My memory is a bit foggy, but there’s definitely other examples out there of large language models building a pretty comprehensive world model internally. That’s the best way to accurately predict the next token.
Goodreads is an example of a Rails victim like yours. They customized the app on top of Rails, and it's been so bad that Goodreads is dead in the water and has not received major tech updates despite Amazon throwing engineers at it. Ruby is a dangerous language to refactor, so often you're locked for a long time. See also: Every blog post about Rails upgrades ever (see also: Stockholm syndrome)
I bought the best printer on wire cutter a few years ago, it was an HP ink jet. That was the biggest piece of garbage I ever bought. It would refuse to print when it was low on ink. It would be low on some random color despite me printing in black and white, rarely at that. It locked me out over using after market ink.

I bought a brother laser jet and love it.

Not quite the same thing, but the Optimism Collective runs a program called Retroactive Public Goods Funding that sort of works like this: https://www.optimism.io/retropgf

A round is currently active and dependencies are encouraged to sign up. Quite literally millions worth of crypto up for grabs for the ecosystem's dependencies on a recurring basis. Frequency is about twice per year right now but I think the goal is to get to at least once per quarter.

(Disclaimer: I work for a company called OP Labs which does work for the Optimism Collective)

(And yes, it's a crypto project, but I'm hoping the common goal of constructing systems that can sustainably fund open source software might bridge the HN gap)

Governments have a problem where they get captured by special interests. If you have a lot of government employees, they vote for politicians who give them more money or benefits or refuse to make them redundant even if something changes and what they do is no longer necessary.

This means that if you're buying something like trucks, it's generally better for the government to buy ordinary trucks from the market than to operate a public sector auto manufacturing industry that would become bloated and inefficient because it captures the government and isn't subject to competitive pressure. Even if the trucks are critical to some government function.

This works fine as long as the bidding process is open to anyone, because then the government just buys cars from carmakers and uniforms from tailors and you ideally don't end up with a voting block of government-exclusive tailors insisting that they need to be able to retire at age 55 with full benefits. Private tailors who insisted on that to a private contractor would be refused because the contractor couldn't give them that while submitting a competitive bid for the government contract.

The problem comes when the government starts making it harder to bid on a government contract, because then the only bidders become companies that specialize in government contracting. At which point the contractors are just government employees by proxy -- they have no private customers, they only work for the government -- so then the government just gets captured again.

What should be happening is that the government puts out bids to design a tank, anyone can submit one, and the winner gets paid for the rights to the design. Then the government takes the design and put out bids to build each of the parts for the tank and gets bids from all of the companies that normally make water pumps and hydraulics for cars and homes and construction equipment. Then they take bids to assemble those parts into a tank. Then they take bids to do maintenance on the tanks. Anyone can bid who is qualified, and because the contracts are each small and as generic as possible, lots of ordinary businesses are qualified.

But instead they put out a single contract to do all of that, end up with a concentrated market of companies who specialize in government contracting, and you lose the benefit of market competition because you no longer have any.
I find the promise of ‘unmatched personalisation’ or customisation lacklustre here. If you’re seeking something more customisable I’d suggest Quiche Browser. It’s a recent app by an independent developer that provides an experience that offers more UI customisation in a tasteful manner. Sure there are fewer bells and whistles features, but if you just want a minimal, privacy conscious browser that can adapt to you it may be worth a shot.

Why is it that Samsung needs an agreement with Google in the first place? Is it about a permission to use androing with Google services or does Samsung want to be paid for setting Google's search engine as default?

The answer to this question is really important, because if the first is true, Samsung is essentially forced to enter into whatever agreement Google puts in front of them (the alternative is it's own flavor of Android a-la Huawei). However, if the latter is true Samsung is complicit in this monopolist practice.

Does anyone know which one is it?

And imo up till now the original Java flavor of Processing has been maintained very well! They've kept up with Java versions, done an Apple ARM port, added modern conveniences like debuggable shaders and a library to run ONNX ML models, and improved GPU performance with each major release.

A small dev team like this isn't working for 200k a year, unless we have aforementioned investors that won't want to invest peanuts. And to be frank, you don't need a 200k dev to work on such a game unless you're making No Man's sky or something that is at significant scale.

A Dev in this position would take a huge cut but negotiate for profit shares. Likely very large if they are such a small team.
I really like Rails and for a long time I used it and lived fairly well off of it.

I used to make good money doing upgrades from one version to another as well...

I hear your gripes here... I think with Rails if you run into problems, this is because you created (or someone in your org) them for you.
