Reload only reloads one copy of the module. If there are other modules that imported the same module, your new definition will not be seen by them unless you find all the copies of foo in memory and reload them also. Since there's no reliable way to do that, you're more likely to just restart Python all the time.
There's a reason you see people walking around in hard hats and steel toed boots in some companies. It's not because everything works perfectly all the time!

Are you thinking of "The Reckless Engineer" pub that used to be outside the road leading to Temple Meads? I believe that's now been renamed as "The Sidings".
Only applies to the small portion of the population that enjoys the process. I could never appreciate digital cameras. Take a bunch of shots , then go home and filter those shots for the good ones, then adjust the color of those shots. No thanks, not my cup of tea.

Funny enough I enjoy shooting film over digital. A lot less work and decision to be made.

People are focusing on the negative stuff here (lazy researchers "cheating"). But there's also a positive side to this. Generative AI is the ultimate research tool. It already knows the vast majority of research that you'll never get around to reading. You could spend your entire life reading every last second of it and you wouldn't come close to catching up. A lot of that stuff may be irrelevant (to your context) but it still knows about it.

And you can ask it questions about anything it ingested. Or ask it to criticize your text, find analogies to other work, or generally perform the role of a really diligent peer reviewer and editor before you even submit the work. That's all highly useful and it should lead to a higher quality of work for those researchers that use their tools well. I use gpt for Google docs and it's definitely helping me improve my text. I don't let it write whole sections/paragraphs. But I do use it to criticize, critique, and suggest improvements. I imagine a lot of students and researchers have been doing the same for the last year or so.

The same goes for reviewers. They can ask to extract key points, analyze the argumentation, find related work that the author might have missed, figure out where the authors are taking a few liberties with the facts/literature, etc. much more easily.

I've reviewed a fair amount of mostly badly written papers back in the day. This is not fun and rather laborious work. A lot of academic life is basically about reading each other's work and providing (hopefully) constructive criticism for articles that ultimately don't make the cut. I got rather good at that when I was still doing that. Any workshop, conference, or journal ends up rejecting way more articles than they accept. Especially the better publications. Some poor souls have to read all the rejected stuff. The price you pay for getting accepted is helping out with the peer reviews.

The process can be biased, political, unfair, and sometimes harsh. But it's better than not having a process. Generative AI can help with challenging unfair peer reviews, help reviewers extract key points, and zoom in on novel ideas/theories. Ultimately what you look for in an article is: Does it contribute something novel? Is the work contextualized properly relative to prior work? Is the work sound in its reasoning? Etc. Answering such questions positively basically means it's a good article. A generative AI can save a lot of time with this. Weeding out the bad articles is not that hard but a lot of work.
It's more the other way around. A large earthquake is often followed by a swarm of aftershocks, some of which can cause significant damage.

The media failed to report that the recent quake in Morocco was followed by tens of smaller quakes over the next few weeks, all in a small-ish area that had been quake-free. (In recent memory, at least.)
Agreed; it's a ridiculously optimistic projection and should not be the basis for advocacy.

Show HN: Penrose Pipes
I’ve been a big fan of Hexapipes since it came out last year. I also wanted to learn about Penrose tiling. So I implemented a Penrose grid for Hexapipes!

My intention is to contribute the code back to Hexapipes. Earlier this year I contributed the Cube grid as a practice run. It is a joy working with the brilliant @gereleth.

It will take some work to raise the code to the Hexapipes standard. But the game is ready to play, so I thought I’d release it at its own domain.

It is based on a new JS library for generating a random area of Penrose tiles, implementing algorithms by Simon Tatham. Demo here:

https://gordonwoodhull.github.io/penrose-fill-polygon/penros...

Please post feedback here or on GitHub:

https://github.com/gordonwoodhull/hexapipes/issues

It’s a relatively easy game as Hexapipes grids go, but it has a fun loopy aesthetic. I hope others enjoy playing it as much as I enjoyed coding it!
EU fires urgent warning at X over content/disinformation following Hamas attacks
This is a very simplistic take. There are CVEs and then there are CVEs. Some may take months to be properly fixed, no matter how many engineer-hours you put on them (e.g. the entire side-channel attacks saga). And that's not even taking into account the time required to alert different vendors (think about all the different linux distributions, upstream, big companies, etc...) and coordinate adequate steps.
Yes, like any copyright.
That sounds like a cool project! I started off with NHK Easy but recently moved on to normal NHK news, NHK easy is such a fantastic resource. And having something that shows Furigana to you only when you click on the text sounds great! Right now I'm using Migaku for all my text highlighting / tooltip needs, which is working out great!
In the UK, drunk cycling is an offence with a maximum (but not usual) penalty of £2500, but you can’t be forced to take a blood alcohol level breath or urine test as a cyclist… so you’ll just get a charge of reckless cycling instead. Neither drunk or reckless cycling has any effect on your driving license.

So basically, as long as you’re not so impaired you’re an obvious danger to others you’ll probably get away with it, which might explain why it’s such a popular alternative to getting home from the pub.
That's a very good point, I didn't even think about the aspect that FUSE is available system-wide, for all other applications to use transparently. That makes Spacedrive seem to come up really short, in comparison.
I really like http4k.

http4k[0] is a lightweight but fully-featured HTTP toolkit written in pure Kotlin that enables the serving and consuming of HTTP services in a functional and consistent way.

http4k consists of a lightweight core library, http4k-core, providing a base HTTP implementation and Server/Client implementations based on the JDK classes. Further servers, clients, serverless, templating, websockets capabilities are then implemented in add-on modules. http4k apps can be simply mounted into a running Server, Serverless platform, or compiled to GraalVM and run as a super-lightweight binary.

Apart the from Kotlin StdLib, http4k-core module has ZERO dependencies and weighs in at ~1mb. Add-on modules only have dependencies required for specific implementation.

The really surprising thing is that GNOME has an official component called "tracker-miners". It's like they're deliberately trying to make it sound malicious. How much unnecessary stress has this name caused to people who thought it was some kind of keylogger or cryptominer malware?
Just to plug that we have built MirrorThink.ai: an AI assistant specifically designed to help professional researchers in their day-to-day work.

(I am aware that self-promotion is allowed but somewhat frowned-upon in HN. I believe this is relevant to the context and I am particularly qualified to comment on it. But I'll strive to be as transparent as possible.)

We have intentionally steered away from assisting with writing work for the reasons outlined in the article. Our focus has been to save time in keeping up with their field: making literature reviews much faster, summarizing recent discoveries in each researchers' niche area of interest, and gathering how others have tackled similar highly-specialized research problems. Grounding LLMs in scientific fact and always providing verifiable sources.

We have spent many years before this building a business around our "Map of Science" at Scitodate, so we have strong connections with the community and a lot of experience in this domain. Both in terms of how science is done and how to reliably extract valuable knowledge from millions of documents with NLP. We now have one of the largest datasets of papers, patents, funding grants... Updated on a daily basis. With plenty of enrichment, connections and aggregations: we have done a lot of in-house research on disambiguation and entity-linking. We particularly have focused on mapping out the expertise, interests and achievements of all professional scientists, as well as the institutions they have worked at.
The whole "space is big" thing applies here, you can keep those two bodies super far apart. I don't really see a good reason for that tbh but it's possible. Though if the mission depends on those two bodies traveling together, you better have tons of redundancy or some propulsion systems to recover in case the cable snaps.
At my children's institutions the only allowed use of ChatGPT is proofreading. You must still declare it though.

All other uses, including, specifically for generating ideas, are plagiarism and ground for expulsion.
Show HN: Dynamic aspect-driven image rendering for web developers
Hello HN!

A few months back I was developing a website and I had to manually (re)crop images a bunch of times to test different image placements and layouts. I thought it would be neat to have a way to generate those images on the fly.

Enter.. Ratio Render! (https://www.ratiorender.com)

Ratio Render enables web developers to dynamically render image placeholders on their websites via their aspect ratios.

Rather than serving up fixed dimension jpg or png images, Ratio Render serves up SVGs which maintain their aspect ratios while scaling infinitely.

Images get embedded via a standard image tag e.g. `<img src="https://api.ratiorender.com/4/3">`

It's built with Typescript & Node, runs powered by AWS Lambda, and deployed via Terraform.

I'm actively working on it and there is lots of room for improvement.

Any comments, feedback, or suggestions are welcome, especially if you're a web developer!
Terry Pratchett is one of the sacred treasures of a section of society, and when you raise questions about him or his work you can be expected to downvoted to oblivion.

A fair amount. Not everything, but a decent chunk. You don't store things in multiple locations?
Since 2000, 11 652 Palestinians and 2 246 Israelis have been killed by someone from the other side. So who is the perpetrator here when one side perpetuates Apartheid policies?

So, it was never a valid patent to begin with.
no need to argue:

IN ADDITION to removal attempts, we SHOULD ALSO influence (regulation, societal pressure, etc) how HR/etc departments use data they find online about a person.

I'd be surprised if not, but even then, it's not clear if the time was a requirement set by the cURL team at all for projects that aren't cURL.
I presume that by TableView you mean List { } component. Sadly, there is no component for large horizontal lists in SwiftUI and no, ScrollView with LazyHStack is not an answer due to memory issues.
If Linux offer a layer of compatibility with Windows API, abd devs release games ensuring that the games run on that compatibility layer, the distinction of "but they don't release games natively for Linux" is largely irrelevant.

Linux is a better OS than Windows in mostly every way, and what held a lot of people from making the switch was the inability to run their game library there.

Nowadays, I can run the vast majority of my game library on Linux without any issues. In fact, older games are often better supported by WINE/Proton than by Windows itself. And the situation seems to only improve as time passes.
Google is known to delist apps from the store.

If you, as Valve, launch Steam and take your own payments within Steam - which I suspect Google would quash instantly - you would build up an install base that "owns" value in your store (modulo weaselly subscriber agreements).

When Google does Google things and kills your popular product, perhaps citing that it is a competing app store, you now have millions of angry gamers. Maybe they cannot sue you, but they can certainly abandon your market on other platforms.

It's just not a good bet.
Yeah dialects throw a monkey wrench into it I think some bh can be V or W. Maybe concentrating on a specific dialect may help with learning. Maybe that was my problem if I though it was W and then V and then W again.
This fine should be related with the surveillance of the Amazon workers, not related to Amazon online store.
I think using any AI tool that reports your findings for you represents failure and laziness in science.

It will become a circle: somebody uses AI to generate boring text (probably not even themselves will read it), then somebody else puts the boring text for AI to summarise. Nobody learns anything. Repeat.
Yes you are right. I had no idea they renamed it. Wankers.
I shoot film as well. It's definitely not less work but it is enjoyable.

As for convenience, the DSLRs can be tethered to your phone now. I shoot on mine and they go to Apple Photos.

24 hours is an impossible timetable.

When do those even start counting? When I think I've found something, or when I'm done investigating and confirming it and have completed a technical writeup?

The official language can be found starting on page 41 (bottom) of this document:

https://eur-lex.europa.eu/resource.html?uri=cellar:864f472b-...

> The manufacturer shall, without undue delay and in any event within 24 hours of becoming aware of it, notify to ENISA any actively exploited vulnerability contained in the product with digital elements. The notification shall include details concerning that vulnerability and, where applicable, any corrective or mitigating measures taken.

Doesn't sound realistic at all.
It's probably more interesting (rather than the argument about whether these should have been published) to note that local newspapers carried short stories for publication. And while we have a multitude of publishing platforms, a local paper like that would have had a far more diverse readership.

Dog's don't become superseded by next year's flashy model, and owners who become bored of them can't put them in the loft to gather dust. I suspect the target market will never be the same as real pets. Maybe you could spin those things as positives.
And yet I still don't hear any answer to a very basic question that is in fact relevant and pertinent.

Let's rewind and pretend I agreed.

"Right! That is crazy! We should... wait, what should we do?"

It doesn't matter how terrible something is if there is nothing to be done about it. What is the point in saying that it's literally the end of the world if a nova goes off 30 light years away? It would be, and it could happen any time. We should... what?

The terrible thing you expressed is not actually a thing that can be isolated and managed, because there is no such atomic distinct unit as a kamikaze drone. The thing that you have pointed out that is so dangerous is any human in the world having any free will at all.

There is no motte and fucking baily

In fact I even DID respond to your moronic RPG/nuke hyperbole even though it was disingenuous and an attempt to deflect.

A friend of mine lost his daughter to a DUI driver. DUI needs to have dire consequences, especially if involved in killing/disabling others.

However, we should use the justice system to deliver the right punishment instead of condemning people to an extrajudicial, de facto life sentence in all cases. The US is too liberal with making information public, while in most countries it's almost impossible to know who had a DUI in the past.
If the rumors around GPT4 being a mixture of expert models are true, the this comparison is not fair.

A tip jar is not ads. A nice park with a tip jar might work. If it didn’t work, the park wouldnt cease to exist, but people would find a different funding model. Taxes that fund parks definitely work.

Remember that public parks are a pretty recent innovation. Imaging someone saying of private gardens in 1700 “if the king didn’t pay for a park, the park would cease to exist” as a justification for an oppressive monarchy.

YouTube will continue to exist without ads. Business models change. It may make less profit margin, but saying it will cease to exist is hysterical hyperbole.

This reminds me of M-x write-thesis RET, a usenet joke from the 90s IIRC. Apparently, since google is no longer indexing the past, I couldn't find a link. However, I still remember the post vividly, and it makes me sad that 25 years later, we have to have this discussion for real now. Back then, everyone in their right mind knew why automated scientific publication writing would be hilariously bad. These days, we have articles like this. Weird.
I know that's true of C libraries. POSIX thread cancelation is one of those things where its mere existence pervades everything in its implications.

The concept of Log seems needlessly confusing from (still) digital image processing perspective, which I have some experience.

Firstly the name is called "Log" (for logarithmic) but isn't that what gamma does in color spaces like sRGB since forever? "Normal" video standards like BT.709 also have non-linear transfer functions. I don't get why "log" is stressed here. Maybe it just means a different/higher gamma coefficient (the author didn't talk much about the "log" part in the article).

And the main feature of it, at least according to this article, is that it clips the black and white level less, so leaves more headrooms for post-processing.

This is definitely very useful (and is the norm if you want to do something like, say, high quality scanning), but I failed to see how it warrants a new "format". You should be able to do that with any existing video format (given you have enough bit depth, of course).
I think this implies that a family has multiple cars. It is good enough to be a second car (yet IMO to expensive still and while Tesla gets on the cheap side, its interior is not for everyone).

However, my point is - I don't want 2 cars and EVs don't yet tick all boxes.

By capable, the hardware is, but the software isn't. IIRC macOS removed the libraries required to run 32-bit applications back in Mojave or Catalina. So it's not really lying. While it is annoying that we can't use legacy software without resorting to workarounds like VMs, it does move the industry forward to 64-bit apps, on macOS at least.
