This is one of the things that bugs be about AI code generators. They are pretty helpful when I'm writing quick generic routines. But they don't work for anything slightly novel (I write research code). The other big factor is that the models are trained on GitHub, SO, Reddit, etc and have no real quality filter. That's good for breadth, but not for depth and high quality code[0,1]. I'm already a shitty coder, it's not that helpful to have a companion write other shitty code who doesn't understand the whole ecosystem we're building within nor the abstract idea we're trying to build.

I hear a lot about how people say they can't live without copilot now and I'm often confused (not new programmers, but I'm hearing SWEs say this). Is it because we're all just writing junk code as fast as possible and say fuckall to technical debt? Am I using the tools wrong? (Not sure how) Or what is going on? I really just hear these two opinions "omg it changed my life" and "yeah, I get some use out of it, but just saving me a google search mostly." Is my sampling just really biased?

[0] yes, there's lot of high quality code on github, but it is dominated by a lot of shitty code. And high quality code is often high quality because of the complex interconnections between many different routines which is a level of complexity LLMs don't yet have and requires quite large context lengths. We're getting there but there's still good performance degrade as context length increases even if all the text fits within that context.

[1] Don't get me started on HumanEval as a test set...
It's not even close. This era of AI is an adventure in scale and compute density.

Oh you are right, QUIC is from there. I misremembered it.
> A friend of mine convinced me this was the FB strategy to get people to resign instead of needing to fire them (a costly, legal.minefield).

It's a major pet peeve of mine when people's conspiracy theories don't even make sense even if you accept the theory at face value:

1. If you want to fire people for performance or other reasons, it's true that a great time to do it is during layoffs - there doesn't need to be any rationale given, and there is nothing to sue over when a hundred other people are also being let go for non-performance reasons. So if you're already having layoffs, why again are you hoping for some people to resign??

2. Why on Earth does your friend think having multiple rounds of layoffs will convince poor performers to resign? That doesn't make any sense. If anything, it's usually the crappiest people who are OK stocking around when a company becomes paralyzed during layoffs season - it's top performers who see the writing on the wall and go elsewhere.
Wow. How did I not know about PEX.
Why are you justifying calling them a pejorative name? And saying it's okay because they're dead... what a bit of logic.

> Meanwhile, who cares.

That's the summary and we're back to my point being that this lack of care should be embarrassing for the field.
I live in Singapore, which probably has the most CCTV coverage of any country in the world. When I was younger, I would (and did) take issue with omnipresent government surveillance, but now I don't really care as much.

That being said, I feel that random gronks with cameras strapped to their faces filming everybody is totally different.

Glasshole video can (and does) go straight to social media where anyone can see it, not just a small group of government people who are (at least in theory) regulated, supervised and democratically accountable.

Arguably the horse has already bolted with smartphone cameras (a practice I also find distasteful). If I owned a cafe I'd probably ban both of them.
I agree! I especially like how they showed how these methods can be tweaked, parameterized, or combined. It looks like it was fun to build!
They had to suspend the R&D they did in Russia due to Ukraine, but I'm surprised they were able to keep it over there for so long given the other perils of having employees over there (that law which forced most American tech companies to close their R&D centers a decade or so ago).
Computers can be used to make CSAM so anyone who has one should also get a background check and wait 10 days.
Is it technically accurate? Seems like its actually 6Dof view angles + time. The paper mentions 4D view, 4D point cloud, dynamic 3D scene and 4D feature grid.

"This is only a scenario of the future, by no means an outright prediction of what is to come. We can be reasonably confident of the continuation of certain trends. Much of the long boom's technology is already in motion and almost inevitably will appear within that span. Asia is ascendant whether we like it or not. Barring some bizarre catastrophe, that large portion of the world will continue to boom. But there are many unknowns, all kinds of critical uncertainties. Will Europe summon the political will to make the transition to the new economy? Will Russia avoid a nationalist retrenchment and establish a healthy market economy - let alone democracy? Will China fully embrace capitalism and avoid causing a new cold - or hot - war? Will a rise in terrorism cause the world to pull back in constant fear? It's not technology or economics that pose the biggest challenges to the long boom. It's political factors, the ones dependent on strong leadership."

If I’m understanding the paper correctly then the four dimensions are the position, density, radius, and color of the spheres in their volumetric model. So for any given viewing position and point in time, their model produces a 4D scene that is then rasterized to 2D.
Nobody wants to depend on hardware development cycle hence “fuck it, ill do it in software”

Nicotine has antidepressive effects through increasing bioavailability of serotonin. It also shines as an antipsychotic. I’m failing to find the study right off but something like 80-90% of schizophrenics are smokers.

Buspar works in smoking cessation therapy as it helps balance the drop in serotonin when quitting smoking.
What is this from?

If this thread from the top-level comment is full of references, I’m not getting it.
I don't understand what the objection is to the methodology. Are you claiming there is another party that has a better sample (even subjectively so) and was pushing it and didn't succeed? If anything, standards committees are often overly annoying and biased the other way just because some other company representative wants to justify their presence. That is also cherry picked. For example standardizing ALPN over NPN which is largely a downgrade for the average user done in the standard process. The examples you use simply indicate a certain company is ahead of the game in solving problems others also have.
I think that would be fun.
The 15mg/d they used in that study is just the standard dietary intake (top end, europeans). Looked a number of other studies that also used just regular intake levels as "supplementation". Weird how they all stay small when the no observable adverse effects level is much higher.

There's certainly no incentive to "go the extra mile" and be a high performer.
Free/cheap food, enough meeting rooms, and a place to walk.

You don't need a giant amount of amenities and every company I've worked at hasn't had enough meeting rooms.

If I'm adding to my wish list it's a shower so you can bike to work and rinse off. It's the daily conveniences rather than the crazy atypically perks I never use that I value.

It hasn't changed since the 60's. Listening to people who self-diagnose ADHD might give you that impression. Same with Autism, which seems to be every third person if you believe social media over actual doctors. People seem to feel this makes them more interesting. It doesn't, really. It makes them a different kind of statistic.

ADHD is more well understood now (which is why it is separated into Compulsive, Hyperactive or both) but the diagnostics, as determined by professionals in psychiatry, have not changed in decades. The biggest change in studies for ADHD is how it affects females differently than males.

Well, anecdotally it feels like infosec and osint twitter are rotten husks of their former glory. There used to be vibrant discussions and commentary, but I guess it depends on what you do/follow on Twitter.

MAU might be flat, but I can almost guarantee the bot or inauthentic traffic is what are keeping those numbers flat. Heck, a non zero amount of that inauthentic traffic has paid for twitter for purposes of spam or propaganda.

Protip: you can generally tell a sites actual user base by the quality of ads and their ad revenue. They are running non brand safe ads and reports are their ad revenue is a fraction of pre-musk levels. I half expect them to start running straight up taboola ads at some point.
I don't think it's that hard to rely on hardware development, it's more of a problem of rolling out a fleet of new hardware.

It's just not realistic to take all the switches, routers, and other garbage you've got in between points in the network off the rack/ceiling/wall/pole because the hardware can't support some protocol.

Good evidence for this is the rollout of fiber, which has been happening neighborhood by neighborhood and house by house for a decade.
I beg to differ, well, at least i beg to add a 3rd option. I like to subscribe to the thinking that the PM owns the decision but the best outcomes are made when they work closely with, and often take a lot of input from, the developers.

At the end of the day the reason i say i like this model is because i want ownership from a product group, and likewise no development team wants PMs prescribing to them how to structured the database or what language to choose. So ultimately, this division of responsibility is kind of a logical divide, to ensure we see where each other operates and let the developers have input but also their own area of ownership without taking away the ownership the product people bring to the table.
I used to listen all the time to http://spaceunicorn.radio *, most stuff is psytrance and great.

I’ve taken 60+ Waymo trips in SF and much prefer them over Uber. There are rough edges but I love playing music I like, the smooth and consistent driving, the same model car each time. I’m an early adopter kind of person and can live with the occasional “why pick me up over there?” Like stuff.

I’m not affiliated with Waymo. Just someone who got early access by joining the waitlist.

Show HN: I made an app that ranks the most profitable traders on the internet
TLDR:

I built a Social-Finance app after paying lots of money for discord signals from traders who don't even make any money.

So I decided to rank top-performing traders on a leaderboard so I could tell who was worthy of learning from/copying.

Figured people here may find it interesting (or not, up to you) but felt it was worth sharing.

Here's the link, use it, would love to know if it's helpful: https://visibull.trade

Long post:

Last year I got sucked into the world of trading, but I wasn't having much success with it. To put it bluntly, I sucked... and lost a LOT of money. So to try and learn the ropes and recover some of my losses, I joined many paid discord groups.

These groups promoted investment advice and trading signals from "successful traders", but I quickly realized that many of these traders were not actually successful. But there was no way to know this before joining their paid group.

So that's why I created Visibull a membership platform where you can discover top-performing traders and verify their performance before joining their paid group.

Basically it's an app that lets you follow and copy the most profitable retail traders. Traders can paywall their content, offering subscribers exclusive access to a wide range of benefits, such as:

- real-time trade alerts that you can one-click copy
- viewing of a trader's entire portfolio and
- a social experience similar to Twitter

But the heart of the platform is the Leaderboard, which is the trust signal that sets it apart. This unique feature ranks traders based on their performance in the financial markets using real account data via integrations with major financial companies such as Plaid and Coinbase. It empowers you to confidently subscribe to traders with proven track records, enhancing your trading experience and knowledge.

It helped me so much that I shared it with others... it got out of hand kind of quick.

Feel free to use it, it's built with love. Or not idc.
Thanks for asking! Honestly I’m sure I’ve been that bad manager plenty of times, no one improves without making plenty of mistakes, unfortunately.

It depends.

For me so far the problems have been easily sorted out except once. The once was a lot of extra and unnecessary calculations but essentially no penalty. Just the cost of my time, which is bad enough.

My main complaint (which is still fairly minor) is that they still too often presume that "it" (the reason why they want more money) is the fault of the individual taxpayer. No need for them to consider other possibilities. Once, a client provided poor numbers on their 1099 and I used my version. Both versions based on my invoices. IRS doesn't bother to ask for a clarification. Just sent me a bill and fine. And I suspect in the end after my response letter, they audited the client. Not the best result but only a little stressful on my side.
