Vietnam Tried to Plant Spyware on Phones of US Politicians and Journalists
The comments on this site are really something after having worked for an engineering corp that was actively targeted for industrial espionage. You guys really don't wanna monitor what processes on your boxes are doing? Hopefully your servers don't do anything of consequence lol.
I don't understand the question. Surely the answer depends which order you withdraw balls in? Is the idea that you blindly withdraw a ball at every step, and you are asking for the expected value of each number of ball at the end of the process?

Seems like quite a difficult question to compute exactly.

I reworded the question to make it clearer and then it was able to simulate a bunch of scenarios as a monte carlo simulation. Was your hope to calculate it exactly with dynamic programming? GPT-4 was not able to do this, but I suspect neither could a lot of your interns.

> Valve doesn't make games is ridiculous

Valve is not a normal company; there's no hierarchy and they're only capable of doing things if someone at the company decides to pay attention to it.

Do you remember what happened to TF2? It first degraded into an item trading game, then they abandoned it for years and it was full of bots. There's no reason Overwatch and Apex should've replaced it except that they stopped fighting for it.
But 1Password syncs your passkey to all your devices, so you only have one.
It autodetects language by default but you can set to a specific one. Though you'd still have that problem on a multi-lingual input video.
I don't know what to think of that other than it's sort of cool that we can do that with relatively inexpensive consumer electronics as a _secondary_ function.
Passkeys represent the cumulative wisdom and experience (and compromises!) of the whole industry on how to keep users safe online. Appreciate your opinions that these efforts are doomed. It is safe to say, "We'll surely find out!"
Yah thats is super obnoxious. I love the prius but if I couldn't park in a locked garage I would likely sell it for something else ASAP.

Coronado Island (San Diego) loves giving tickets to all the Navy personnel driving through with too loud of vehicles. We try to warn people transferring there but many don't listen and end up with tickets.

To be fair (to those who think that's excessive), they also (on two occasions) chased down and cited/arrested people who tried to run me off the road on my bicycle there (commuted via bicycle for years), and I've had many other great interactions with them.
Show HN: I learned to code and built a crypto analytics platform
Hey everyone!

I am an enthusiast trader and a year ago I had this idea to create a free-to-use website that would feature all the most essential tools that traders would use on a daily basis.

So I learned to code and build it—I did everything including design, texts, code, and SEO—which took me 12 months to launch and a year and a half to make it look like it currently does.

I was into marketing and design before, but I didn't know barely anything about coding. The website is built using Next.js, Tailwind CSS, and Typescript with Framer Motion animations and lots of APIs.

I’m actively working on the project and in the following months I will release a huge update that will feature a renewed interface and access to real time on chain data and analytics.

Feel free to ask any questions and thanks a lot for reading this, it means a lot to me. Any feedback and your opinions would be highly appreciated.

EU warns Elon Musk over 'disinformation' on X about Hamas attack
The ability to identify that there isn't a simple closed form result is actually a key component of reasoning. Can you stick the answer it gives on a gist or something? The GPT 3.5 response is pure, self-contradictory word salad and of course delivered in a highly confident tone.
As a Spring power user, you sound like you're ranting against something you don't/didn't understand.
If you're still talking about it 24 years later, it did what it was supposed to.

> Heinerscheid, who became a vice president at the company in July 2022, stated that her goal was to evolve the Bud Light advertising to make it more inclusive, and to move it away from its "fratty and out-of-touch humor". (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2023_Bud_Light_boycott)

"Fratty and out-of-touch humor" stuck the landing well enough to be remembered for 24 years and counting. Budweiser's customer base being both brand-loyal and outspoken homophobes, Heinerscheid thought it would be a hip and trendy idea to associate a trans influencer with the brand. Now Budweiser is on its deathbed.

Talk about being out-of-touch...Heinerscheid must have been the former VP of advertising at Quizno's.

I don't think “harmful to public health” is a consideration. Pretty much every country with a functioning government requires RF certification for electronics, but especially radio transmitters. It's never going to be worth hunting down individual buyers or hassling tourists, but selling is another thing.
It's legal to shoot people under certain circumstances... self defense, defense of another, performing a git merge, etc.
It's tangential to this but the integration of biofeedback with headphones reminded me something I've dreamed of having off and on for years. I would really love a music player that uses some kind of biological sensing data to help inform what it plays. When I'm exercising I'd love for my phone to be able to figure out my intensity through some metrics (heart rate, respiration, skin temperature, accelerometers) and select faster and/or more intense music as well as adjust the volume based on that information.
I would love two wall mounted e-ink displays showing chess boards so my 14 year old son could play chess with his grandfather.

I imagine the game keeping track of whose turn it is and being able to give voice commands to make moves.

Then they could play games over a longer period of time, maybe make one move per day.
Are there any that targets WebGPU? Emscripten won't translate the GPU calls unfortunately :( ANGLE does the opposite.

I am a big fan of Spring Boot, its one of the few frameworks that just works and let me focus 100% on solving business problems. I've tried Micronaut, Quarkus, Dropwizard, but they slow me down too much compared to just using Spring Boot.

For me delivering business value is the most important metric when I am comparing frameworks. Spring Boot wins every time.

If there are some other crypto analytics tools or calculators that you'd like to see on the website please let me know and I'll include it in the list of things to code.
The best probability estimate you can make is constrained by the information you have available. The new person showing up has less information than the existing constant, so it makes sense that their best estimate would be less precise. Similarly, if someone with x-ray vision walked up in the middle of the game, they could pick the car 100% of the time, because they have access to more information than either of the existing contestants.

Your last paragraph isn't correct though, By switching you go from a 1/3 probability to a 2/3 probability. Based on the information the original contestant has, switching gets the car 2/3 of the time.
>so they know it’s being sold for government/business use. Probably a bit inflated.

You just reminded me, a few years ago i wanted to buy a transparent screen for a DIY project. The company said they couldn't sell it to me because they're b2b.

I think it was both a volume thing and a tax thing.. and possibly a liability thing.

I typical set the high beams on and aim those straight ahead.

That gives max range for high beams and the low beam down and right (for right drive countries) is then also very close to optimal.
Well, coal is the resource that's gone, but all the metals - iron, silver, aluminum - aren't depleted (they don't disappear when we use them) and are much more accessible than they were before, because we dug them out from deep underground, refined them (especially for aluminum) and concentrated them in various places. If civilization would disappear, our scrapyards are better mining locations than anything the Romans had.
But this is not what basic income is about, is it? As far as I know, basic income means that everybody receives a fixed income, rich or poor.

Oh, too bad about Stephen West's podcast. I'm still working my way through the back episodes, and he seemed very proud of not needing advertising. I'm afraid I never did throw any money at that podcast -- I do have a ~$60/month Patreon bill for various other podcasts that are important to me.

I have PocketCasts set up to skip a lot of preroll ads automatically, and I use its 30-second-skip feature extensively and semi-autonomously. I feel a little guilty about it, because I really appreciate how much content I listen to and I want them to get compensated for it. But if course I'm not gonna listen to ads if I don't have to.
I have ECC RAM installed on my Gigabyte B550I system. dmidecode shows the 72 bit width (Total Width: 72 bits) and dmesg | grep -i EDAC does show a bunch of info suggesting ECC is enabled. But this command's output is empty:

No Memory errors.

No PCIe AER errors.

No Extlog errors.

No MCE errors.

Do I need to enable something so these errors get logged or have I been misled by dmidecode and dmesg?
It is a fair observation. And I can see why users tend to be alarmed about this. Although in my experience users tend to significantly underestimate the real risks of online attacks relative to these more visceral threats.

Let met ask you: has that discovery made you stop using your iPhone, or storing passwords or other critical data in your iCloud? If the answer is "No", then you're strictly better off moving to passkeys stored on iCloud as well.
Given their awesome track record, Google is the LAST company I'd trust not to shut down or lock me out of such a critical tool.
Are there specific Guile code bases that are motivating this work?
It does, but it's worth noting that a manufacturer of such devices can make it meet federal emissions regulations (if they want to spend the $$$$ on R&D), and they can sell devices that are 100% legal in all 50 states.

Examples are Green Diesel Engineering (Who did a TON of dyno time and used to work for a major OEM on emissions stuff) and Banks (who are virtually an OEM at this point)

How to Design a Vernacular Chair
Think about how much you know about a random country, say Hungary. Probably only one composer, maybe one movie. But in Hungary there are millions of books, movies, etc most of which never left.

Same for humans during migrations. Only a small percent of humans left Africa, and then only a smaller percent kept going, etc. So as long as not much time has passed to generate new variation in the areas they settle, only a small fraction of local variation ever leaves is low. And that's what we see, Africa is extremely diverse, Europe/Central Asia less, east Asia even less, etc. It's neither bad nor good, just a number.

There are some other factors, such as mixing with people already present at the destination for a long time (Neandertals, Denisovans) which balance it out slightly.

The US has lots of diversity, but there were a lot of groups in Africa for a very long time (maybe 10k+ separate groups). It's unlikely that people from each one have made it here, or even out of Africa at all, in significant numbers.

Curious. If I was having teeth pulled and later found out my teeth were given to this company without consent, that would feel... creepy at best.
I like middle-ground dependency injection: do it, but only during build time.

Dagger library does that (generates all the glue code during pre-compile phase), so all the dependency-injection already happened before runtime. Also, JVM has an easier time reasoning/optimizing the code.

But I also found that writing the glue code by hand, same way as Dagger would do, is not that hard IMO.
Most of these resources (e.g. the Chris Bradfield book) are targeted at experienced programmers new to game dev. GDQuest has a coding beginner's track and a developer's track, although the usual v3 vs. v4 caveats apply.

> “Choose boring technology” is like MBAs saying “we’re data driven”.

This is so true.

“Choose boring technology” is also used to post-hoc justify whatever choices you’ve already made. To many, golang is boring and Rust is unproven. To others, both are unproven and C/C++ are boring. Who’s right? Everyone and no-one.
This is what I got on a basically brand new OpenAI account:

Edit:
I took it to completion:https://chat.openai.com/c/6cdd92f1-487a-4e1c-ab94-f2bdbf282d...

These were the first responses each time, with no massaging/retires/leading answers. I will say it's not entirely there. I re-ran the initial question a few times afterwards and one was basically giberish.
I agree that the utility of money is nonlinear. However, donating $100 million of $1 billion income seems pretty not insignificant to me. Like, it’s significant enough that they’d probably want to make sure it’s spent wisely. Also, I don’t imagine many people with that kind of income will see it consistently. Debating the significance of 10% seems philosophical and academic. Talking a billionaire out of donating $100 million because it’s not enough would be counterproductive.
Well, some of them. Others use Obsidian, like P.D. Workman, who has written 43 novels in Markdown, many of them with Obsidian. [0] And a few still use WordStar and WordPerfect.

Word is indeed the lingua franca of publishing. To go to an agent or publisher, a doc or docx file is where a manuscript usually has to end up. But "end up" is important here...95% of the work of actually writing need not happen in Word, and many successful writers don't use it for primary drafting.

> These off-platform rentals pose risks to both guests and hosts, who could get scammed without the protections of bigger companies like Airbnb.

It feels strange that we're blaming the rise of Airbnb for property shortages while at the same time stoking fear of a return to the state of things pre-Airbnb. Before the internet it was classifieds and window signs and the friction of that process made it very difficult to scale.
Even the most sophisticated purpose made medical research tools can't do this in a way that you are imagining. If somehow Apple accomplished mind reading devices in their spare time I'd be so amazed that I'd actually not even care how invasive it is. At least for awhile.

It absolutely is anthropomorphizing to claim "GPT-3's ability to
understand concepts" rather than simply calling it "reproduce, mix and match text from an enormous corpus". And we can totally legitimately compare to a jury of human observers' opinions on how well(/badly) the output generated relates to the inputs.

For the specific example the OP cited "War: like being eaten by a dragon and then having it spit you out"

then unless its answer to "Where were you in between being eaten by a dragon and before it spat you out?" is "in the dragon's digestive system" that isn't understanding.

And I'm curious to see it answer "Dragons only exist in mythology; does your analogy mean war doesn't exist either? Why not compare to an animal that exists?"
No one is going to eavesdrop on your thoughts without drilling a hole through your skull.
This is disingenuous; you have to do a lot more than change an air filter. You would have to change the actual piping, etc. with one that the seller declined to spend the money on certifying as compliant.

Further, and most people don't know this is a thing, you CAN tune your car as much as you want and have it certified with all of those parts as a one off for about $5,000 and a six-ish month wait. This is how you can legally import overseas vehicles and get a California title and registration, but it's $5,000 per test, and it usually takes more than one if you aren't super prepared. After the certification the entire engine (including all modifications) are regarded as that being the SMOG compliant form.

One other major loophole is kit cars; SB100 allows for non-SMOG vehicles to be built as a kit. Not everyone's cup of tea, but you can build things like the Superlite GT-R [0] or SL-C [1] and never SMOG it.

Trolling on HN is an abomination.
I think your reasoning is flawed - the fact a lot of .com projects were BS does not imply that the underlying technology (the internet) wasn't transformative.

Are we really saying that people who were saying the internet was a transformative technology in the mid-1990's were wrong? It was transformative, but it was hard to see which parts of the technology would stick around. Of course it doesn't mean that every single company and investment was going to be profitable, that's not true of anything ever. People investing in Amazon and Google were winners though - these are companies that have in many ways reinvented the market they operate in.
