It's not that it sucks, it is error prone. Completely ignore a knowledge of tax law for a moment. Data has to be copied from one form to another, copied for calculation (whether you do it on paper or with a calculator), copied from one line to another, and finally copied from the form into the government's tax software. Each step produces the potential for error. Properly written software does not have the same potential for error.
+1 for this. you can model it like tab groups (one per app) and show all would just consolidate all tab groups. perhaps showing all of them but being able to still view which groups they are in

Yes ExecuTorch is currently targeted at Edge devices. The runtime is written in C++ with 50KB binary size (without kernels) and should run in most of platforms. You are right that we have not integrated to Nvidia backend yet. Have you tried torch.compile() in PyTorch 2.0? It would do the Nvidia optimization for you without Torchscript. If you have specific binary size or edge specific request, feel free to file issues in https://github.com/pytorch/executorch/issues

I was happy with finally being able to drive a Tesla... I like how it drives except for the very wide turn that it makes... But I would never buy one... Gas is so much more convenient. Also, it cost me more than $300 in charging fees for just 3 weeks of regular driving... Gas would have been cheaper... And the gas car itself is a lot cheaper too... Tesla is still a luxury

Here are a few problems you would have to solve:

1. Domain experience - every business is unique and you need to put a given problem into context to see how a given solution fits the business.

2. Project requirements - most projects have barely intelligible requirements that change regularly - sometimes daily. The person would need to get up-to-speed on what that is.

3. One hour is a short amount of time to understand the task and complete it. The best you could do is try to understand and point someone in the right direction. People aren't machines and the need for flow is real.

4. AI code assistance requires oversight and understanding. You never want to generate code and check in unless you fully understand it. Code hallucination is and will continue to be a problem for the foreseeable future.

Describing NIMBYism as "narcissistic assholes" is a gross oversimplification, and misses the point I'm getting at.

In the US, you'll reliably get a lot more NIMBY response from "set up a nuclear power plant in the neighbourhood" vs. "set up a gas power plant in the neighbourhood". However, if you look at the risk assessment, the gas power plant is far more lethal to the neighbourhood.

The Primer doesn't work without human sacrifice. It actually needed two special people: one without anything, and one with a powerful but unfulfilled nurturing instinct. It was a pretty unlikely confluence of circumstance that made it work, and Stephenson hints at this in the book. In fact, Nell is in some ways the perfect synthesis, the maximum amount of work (force over time) that could be created between the Vickies and the Anarchists, exploiting the order/chaos tension that is explicitly discussed in the last chapters. The Vickies know they are stable and creatively dead, and that this is an existential flaw.

You... what? Do you have like a dystopian internal headcanon for how the book ended? "And then they all tore each other to pieces shortly afterwards because they were poorly socialised, the end.", "And eventually all the young girls became addicts and wasted away doing nothing because they didn't have a strong parental figure that was human, the end.", that sort of thing?

>Describing a glorified autocomplete as “thinking” is wrong on many levels

By this logic Reddit is filled with human NPCs, who react in predictable ways without intelligence.

A recent Reddit post discussed something positive about Texas. The replies? Hundreds, maybe thousands, of comments by Redditors, all with no more content than some sneering variant of "Fix your electrical grid first", referring to the harsh winter storm of two years ago that knocked out power to much of the state. It was something to see.

If we can dismiss GPT as "just autocomplete", I can dismiss all those Redditors in the same way; as NPCs. At least GPT AI can produce useful and interesting output.

This is a direct outgrowth of the Shareholder Primacy theory which is what many MBA students are taught. A business has many stakeholders and obligations and at some points in the past, employees and community were valued in balance with shareholders. Corporations provided pensions and acted for the good of the community in addition to making a profit for shareholders.

Once you embrace that your primary reason to exist is to enrich shareholders, everything lines up under the CFO. CEO pay packages are now typically weighted to incentivize the CEO to maximize shareholder value too because so much of their compensation is in stock.

> It's just so very noticeable that the observation is made by a person who has greatly benefited from its effects

You'll likely notice the same about most of PG's essays. Of course he's biased -- but most of the readers here already know this, and are not surprised to see a startup-favoring lens being used in much of his writings. His essays still get a lot of traction here, specifically because this started as a discussion board for his startup incubator, and because his essays about How To Startup / What Is a Startup are fairly commonly read in this space (or were what we read when we first discovered this space?).

WordStar was the first application I used. Way back, in 1993 on Windows 3.11... hahaha I remember trying to draw things with ASCII before I knew that was a thing. I was only allowed to use WordStar and play Sokoban back then... I distinctively recall knowing there and then that all I wanted to do "when i grow up" was going to be something computer related. Good memories.

A previous job was working at a supermarket's online store. Supermarket's have all sorts of weird specials eg "4 pies for $5" or "a pie and a coke for $3".

We were running into problems when we had large test baskets ( $500 always, $200 sometimes ) that there would be so many combinations of specials that calculating the best way to apply them was causing CPU load and timeouts.

Fix was somebody sat down, remembered their CS classes and applied a more scalable algorithm. Problem fixed.

> will remain very skeptical that Gaza has rockets large enough to kill 500 people

In 2006, Hamas was fielding kit that could loft 17 kg of explosives [1]. Given the rocket is 66kg, that's a 25% payload fraction implying at least another 33kg of fuel at launch.

Solid fuel should deflagrate. But it looks like they historically used a sugar/KNO3 premix [2]. I think that could detonate when strapped to an explosive while encountering terrain. Add to that pressurized systems commonly found in a hospital, e.g. oxygen, and the deadliness of a collapsing building, and I can see their circa 2006 kit doing the job.

(Note: this is a back-of-the-envelope plausibility check only.)

Not really - the cellular protocols are designed around there being a base station to coordinate radio resource access and time slots and similar. Everything in a mobile network assumes there's a base station and core network to handle traffic routing and authentication.

If you put that aside, you have a multi band transmitter and receiver in a phone. Assuming you could somehow make it do arbitrary things (which is a big stretch), you'd have a bunch of challenges to overcome.

Firstly, nothing in cellular protocols is really designed to handle uncoordinated random access and users transmitting freely - you'd get collisions and interference when devices transmit over each other. You'd have different devices trying to do different things with each other, so you would need to implement something more akin to WiFi.

Running something more like WiFi on other spectrum would be an option, although you don't (legally) have access to spectrum below 2.4 GHz in most countries that you could use in this way. You'd also struggle to do this anywhere there's a "real" mobile operator using the spectrum, as their base station downlink is significantly more powerful than your handset transmitter.

Finally, one of the reasons mobile networks work over the distances they do (and you cite) is that they are able to use rooftop/hilltop and well-located radio sites with near line of sight over their service area. They also have large antennas focused on a given sector angle, with significant receiver gain - this helps them to receive signals from you when you're further away. This is what helps your phone with its (say) 250 mW maximum transmit power work over kilometres. You wouldn't get any of that in a mesh.

If you tried to build a mesh like this, even putting aside all the software challenges and we assumed it was possible, you'd like find the performance/range not much better than WiFi.

You'd effectively need to run WiFi protocols to handle multi user access on the airwaves, and despite having access to better propagating spectrum, you'll not get the benefits of range due to the small on-device antennas. Meshing WiFi together with some kind of gossip based forwarding protocol at application layer would likely be more effective.
Python has excellent exception handling, and its corollary to if err != nil would be try/except blocks everywhere.

That said, I hate Go for unrelated reasons, and love Python.

Stephenson is famous for terrible endings.

(Dont get me wrong, still love him)
Yes, Nell's character growth and arc was completely reliant on Miranda having a parental instinct and Nell being a child on a fast track to RAD before the TYLIP. The story about her character is absolutely about finding a human that loved her, through an unlikely mechanism. I just take issue with the idea that TYLIP's story is about how a human touch is needed for the concept to work, because as far as I remember that's not the case. That's Nell's story, not the Primer's.
Show HN: VSCode extension that uses the free Google PaLM API to "mimic" Copilot
I was surprised at how much Bard has improved lately so I decided to create this extension.

Ask Bard integrates Google's AI with VSCode to provide AI-generated code.

It utilizes the free official Google's PaLM API.

It works on request instead of automatically because I wasn't really a fan of how spammy it was.

Features:

- Google's PaLM 2 LLM Integration: Generate code snippets from your comments and unit tests based on your code.

- Multi-language Support: Supports various programming languages: JavaScript, TypeScript, JSX, Python, Java, C, C++, C#, Rust, SQL, PHP.

- Easy Configuration: You only need to set up your API key in the extension settings.

Get your free API key here: https://makersuite.google.com/app/apikey

You can just do this now, usually. It does just take some effort, but that's gonna be true whether or not people actually cite their sources properly or not: most of the effort is in actually reading and understanding the material, not finding it, even when it's not super straightforward to find.

(for example, when a piece of legislation is widely reported on, I usually can manage to find and actually read said legislation, which can be quite informative as to whether said reporting is accurate)
I didn't even know this was a thing, but I definitely felt like Diamond Age just sort of ended mid-sentence. It's got all the elements of a great ending. I suspect it's something in the cadence, like if a symphony just ended with a V-I "BUMP DUMP!" without any sense of "everything is resolving into a tight knot." Instead, he lays out all the thread, everything is there, and there's just not really any way to wrap it up without being trite.

For an author with a similar style who does do endings, I'd say look at Heinlein. But this is all kind of besides the point, because Young Lady's Primer was basically my favorite book at the time I read it, and is still in the top of my personal charts. Sure, it doesn't have an ending or even a coda, but it just doesn't matter, because the mass of thread is beautiful without being tightened or tied off.

Counter argument to that is I am writing for people who may want to read it, and with all the noise out there, if I don't try and elevate my posts to some extent, the people who want to read them may not be able to find them.
