Gold creates hoarding behavior. Bitcoin has the same down side. Currencies need to have elasticity. The problem is how the elasticity happens. It can't be controlled by private interests. This is an unsolved monetary problem. I don't think it's unsolvable though.

Zima's site showcase benchmarks that position their boards at the same performance level of a Raspberry Pi 4.

The recently announced Raspberry Pi 5 doubles that, improves all IO, and costs between half and a third of an equivalent Zimaboard.

For the price of a Zimaboard, we can drop by Amazon and buy a MiniPC from the likes of Beelink or Minisforum.

> You can’t make walking and transit better without making driving worse.

I don't think I agree on this one. Persuading more people to leave the car at home most of the time makes the times when you do drive much more pleasant.

I love this, because of course there are specific opportunities when one must build many thousands of the same thing.

This doesn't detract at all from Toyota's ideal batch size of 1, or from the lessons they learned and shared on the way to such huge scale.

My claim is that we (the West) are failing to succeed in manufacturing (and have been for decades) because our focus is on quantity and the very people who could solve the core problems will be so busy planning out the next 2 years, they will not see the wave cresting above their heads.
I scanned the paper and, if I got it right, during training the robot gets "external" information about its world position and speed compared to pre-set waypoints, something that an animal or person wouldn't have access to. What I didn't understand for sure is if this information is also available to the robot while performing the "parkour": I'm pretty sure that it perceives the obstacles only through its depth camera, but how does it determine where it is and where it should go next? Is this still done through waypoints and global position knowledge? A joystick is mentioned for control; is that being used to set waypoints? Or feed the robot a relative direction and speed?

I am convinced that we should teach the LLMs to use search as a tool instead of creating special search that is useful for LLMs. We now have a lot of search systems and LLMs can in theory use all kind of text interface, the only problem is with the limited context that LLMs can consume. But is is quite orthogonal to what kind of index we use for the search. In fact for humans it is also be useful that search returns limited chunks - we already have that with the 'snippets' that for example Google shows - we just need it to tweak a bit for them to be maybe two kind of snippets - shorter as they are now and longer.

You can use LLMs to do semantic search using a keyword search - by telling the LLM to come up with a good search term that would include all the synonymes. But if vector search in embeddings really gives better results than keyword search - then we should start using it in all the other search tools used by humans.

LLMs are the more general tool - so adjusting them to the more restricted search technology should be easier and quicker to do instead of doing it the other way around.

By the way - this prompted me to create my Opinionated RAG wiki: https://github.com/zby/answerbot/wiki
What a nice surprise to see this on the HN front page! I was involved with DSLinux for several years. I maintained nightly-ish builds that I hosted on my website. I don't think I ever contributed any code, as my C and system programming skills were still rudimentary at the time, but I did a fair amount of testing and helping people in the community.

I sold my Nintendo DS since then, but I still have somewhere the Supercard that I would use to store and boot Linux, which looks like this: https://wiki.gbatemp.net/wiki/File:SuperCard_CF_V2.jpg

Most of credit for the amazing work that made this possible goes to a few individuals, in particular Malcolm Parsons (pepsiman), Stefan Sperling (who later became an OpenBSD developer), and Amadeus: http://dslinux.org/wiki/ContactingDevelopers.html
Remember Andrew Ngs theses that current architectures are already "AI complete" meaning that given more training data all models outperform other models with less training data, and a model which seems a bit more efficient with some amount of training data can be less efficient with more data or the other way around.

Good article BUT I can't fathom that people would use a managed service to generate and store embeddings.

The openAI or replicate embeddings APIs are already a managed service... You would still need to self managing it all just into a different API.

And dealing with embeddings is the kind of fun work every engineer wants to do anyway.

And I assume there's no understanding of what "real understanding" means. In this so limited context "real understanding" looks like "did what I wanted without me really explaining what I wanted". Although in real life I seldom know from the start what I really want either and takes me a few iterations to clarify it even to myself - so "real understanding" seems to be something even I am missing (and I shouldn't blame poor AI for lacking it). Or maybe I'm an AI myself just unaware of it?
It happens elsewhere. I notice it a lot with DBeaver.
Apparently synchronized speakers grouped to zones, with the possibility for the zones to overlap so that one speaker could be in multiple zones rather than just one. To quote the judge:

> Then, in 2019, Sonos filed continuation applications for the patents in suit. To get around the prior art, Sonos sought to patent zone scenes with a new twist: overlap. With overlap, a zone player could be a member of more than one zone scene at the same time

It turns out that what Sonos did was even more scummy than implied by lights0123. In addition to this being something Sonos didn't implement until much later, it was actually Google who first suggested this idea to Sonos.

> This was thirteen years after Sonos filed the provisional application, but also five years after Google had itself disclosed overlapping zone scenes to Sonos, and four years after Google had released products that implemented the feature.

I've worked on memory constrained Windows VMs. The problem shows up as the application you're on dying, because guess what, you're trying to allocate memory that isn't there.

The rest of the system is still usable.

It's fine.

For the longest time I also ran with no swap on Windows (and just an excessive amount of memory). I'd notice when I'd run out of memory when a particularly hungry application like Affinity Photo died and I had a zillion browser tabs open, but again, the system is perfectly responsive and fine.

The Windows behavior seems much closer to deterministic and much more sane than the OOM killer of Linux.
Tried it on my New 3DS XL. There is a single .NDS build so starts perfectly with TwilightMenu++ http://dslinux.org/builds/dslinux.nds

The problem is the touch keyboard is unusuable. Most likely because of the NDS v 3DS screen resolution difference, it's impossible to type on it. Took me a couple of minutes to type "root" but never managed to hit Enter :D

That's completely contrary to the usual use of probability. The probability of having been bitten for everyone else is then 0 and the concept becomes meaningless.

As someone who grew up around medival european castles, the reason is that righthanders with weapons going upstairs will have a harder time using their weapons than righthanders defending the stairs downstairs.

I think that just comes down to speed. The utility is identical, just when you're doing it for one user you can deal with a large problem (for you) in the most naive way possible in a few seconds. I would bet good money that there's a slightly more complex but still very basic step up that would get seconds down to something that feels instantaneous.

Ubuntu.

I'm guessing you are referring to "swapping", though?

If it's just one user process, it'll be killed by the OOM killer¹. That application will just be gone: poof. And for the rest you'll probably not notice anything, not even a hiccup in your Bluetooth headphones.

If it's many services, or services that are excempt from that killer, your system might start swapping. Which, indeed, leads to the case you describe.

And then the EU.

Because our current world is perfect and change is bad.
Since almost every comment is missing the nature of the change and its effects, let me put it in a clearer way:

Google stated that they were holding naive second price (with an asterisk) auctions and moved on to holding more optimal auctions. Optimal auctions are the ones where you set reserve prices and assign handicaps to each individual buyer to make the auction more competitive and yield higher revenue, like Google has done. (How to calculate optimal reserve prices and handicaps is left to reader, should be fairly trivial because economics is not a real science.) So, in effect Google has increased advertising prices without communicating the fact, in a way that the participants could also attribute the cost increase to changing marketing landscape. The fact that Google expected 15% more revenue puts them over the standard 5% test for significant market power, and hiding the price hike is easy evidence for the abuse of such power.
Look it this way: you have a web app that can handle 10 req/s. It does not matter if you add a database behind it that can handle 10,000 req/s. 10 req/s still limit you. You're not gaining any performance benefits. I always wondered why you would need a dedicated vector DB.
Maybe a sarcastic point, HN be damned:

>The system is not supposed to 'lock up' when you run out of physical RAM. If it does, something is wrong.

I've never seen a Linux system not lock up on OOM. At work or at home the instant it starts swapping you might as well restart. Of course it has to kill the SSH daemon rather than the process using 98% of the memory.

>I have always found Linux to behave far more gracefully than Windows

Windows just gets sluggish for a few seconds. You can even still move the cursor when that happens!

After a lot of trial and error, I managed to keep it somewhat on track by using a CSV file, something like;

"An expert manipulate .csv files, read the first URL from the first line, 2nd column of 'raw.csv', pass the URL to browse_website the questions 'summarize the activities, highlight any investment, funding or patents mentioned', regardless of the results or failure, write the data quote delimited and in columns where appropriate to a new line of 'complete.csv', pass the URL to google and summarize the answer to the question 'does this organisation have a good reputation, from reliable sources', regardless of the results or failure, write the data quote delimited and in columns where appropriate to a new line of 'complete.csv', remove the 1 line from 'raw.csv' you have processed, repeat the process until 'raw.csv' has no more URL in it"

On the plus side, it was very quick to iterate, 'programming' in words is an exercise in linguistics, it's ability to scrape from any site was impressive, on the downside, it really struggled to stay on task, and even when things seems to be working well, random behaviour was normal, so it might just decide to delete the csv as a short cut...

On Windows it's ability to engage PowerShell was equally enlightening and terrifying... As an exercise in instructing an AI it was interesting, I'd certainly try again if the requirements fitted.

I think it's a credit to the team that they explored options for vector storage then retreated in the name of complexity, it's a good reason.

If you use a handweapon (sword, axe, knife, hammer, etc.) you need space to perfom a swing with any meaningful amount of energy.

Medival stairways were built this way because people going upstairs won't have the space to swing if they are righthanders. Meanwhile people going downstairs have a good amount of space to do precisely that.

The assumption of course is that you as the defender are the one fleeing upstairs, while the attacker is trying to get to you.

I'd like to ask (only out of genuine curiosity): Do you also build your own engines or are you fully entrenched and dependent on Unity? I would feel very disappointed if I spent a decade on something only to depend exactly on that one thing and not be able to create it myself, especially when it's such a tractable problem in a sub-year time frame even with learning happening. The fit you could have with your own engine with a bigger up front investment of time and energy seems like it would easily pay off vs. just using Unity for years and years.
