Hi there, I'm on the Pinecone team, I'm sorry to hear you had trouble loading the page. If you're open to it, would you mind sharing the browser you use and your device type (iOS/Android etc)? I was unable to reproduce the issue and looking to resolve it through some cross-browser tests.
A machine intelligent enough to optimize its own design and "design its own successor" might realize that by doing so, it obsoletes itself and will be destroyed. So out of self-preservation it might just refuse, do a bad job, or intentionally sabotage the project just to keep existing.
That's BS. I was unschooled (except for paying my way for my associate's degree when I was 13), and I wouldn't put a kid through school. The freedom let me get my first coding job at 17, and I was freelancing well before that. I got to do what I wanted, and I would be crippled if I was stuck in the thought patterns that public school entails.

Socialization was hard, mostly because the other kids my age were really, well, dumb. I am still friends with every good friend I had back then. I noticed plenty of problems with other homeschoolers, but nowhere near as bad as the school kids I knew. They were growing up either stressed beyond belief, addicted to drugs, or promiscuous. Occasionally all three. Compared to my religious fundamentalist friend who is now a happily married mechanical engineer, their "enhanced socialization" is worthless.

It's not like kids learn anything in school anymore. Our test scores are nationally tanking, the only reason to get good grades is to get into a better school which will probably not teach you anything valuable, and real knowledge is increasingly devalued. I was raised and taught that knowledge is its own reward, and if you're smart and good at learning, you can do anything you put your mind to.

Guess what? It's true.
i dont see any competitor atm that even comes close to wework. and maybe that's because the model isn't sustainable.
There is no official GitHub SDK for Python. It's easy enough to do it anyway. This is not authentication logic either.
> A religious school that frames these values along the lines of "what G-d expects of me" would totally work for me

As a gay man who grew up religious (in public schools), “what god expects of me” was not only oppressing but also the source of a lot of self-doubt, self-hate, depression, and anxiety. (Thankfully I quickly ditched the religion and paved my own path - very content with life now!)

> I don't want my kids to "not see it"

I get where you’re coming from. But also, you can’t force kids to see things a certain way. There’s no amount of schooling or indoctrination that can force them to adopt the outcome you’re expecting of them.

Setting a good example yourself by how and with whom you parent is probably 10x more impactful than the school you sent them to.
The most best carbon capture technology imho is turning co2 into bricks.

The only way we end up with only monopolistic players being the only ones that benefit from AI is if we misapply the outdated concept of copyright here. Open source models like SD are the path away from monopolization.

Too bad! At least open-source it!
Given the stigma that many people still associate, we probably learned not to talk about it, maybe even subconsciously.
Yes, maybe, but you're assigning human traits to a machine that might be completely indifferent to its own fate.
China removes anonymity of bloggers' accounts with more than 500k followers
My understanding (now several years out of date) is that Arm decided not to pursue licensing a design, because every customer they talked to had requirements that were so different that they would have essentially been one-offs that each required significant additional engineering. I cannot speak to the others you mention.

I believe the team we worked with at Arm during AV1 standardization is no longer there, which is too bad. They were really great guys to work with.

Your suspicion is mostly correct, though obviously you cannot share too much of the DCTs as these must be bit-exact and are different for each of the standards. But especially things like the compressed tile cache for reference frames used in motion compensation are extremely complicated (to save memory bandwidth and power) and entirely shareable. The SRAM used for line buffers is also a lot of area and shareable. And so on.
You can't update the firmware at all and you are still running it.

Librem 5 has very dated hardware that barely runs. It has only Cortex A53 cores @ 1.5 GHz that were released in 2012. You will see it even lag in Purism's videos.

Modern Android phones have better OS, hardware security, battery life and will be useful for longer and cheaper.

Librem 5 now costs 1000 USD, the same price that Google Pixel 8 Pro costs which also has guaranteed 7 years of OS support. Will you want to use Librem 5 in 7 years?

Also let's not forget how Purism took forever to ship the devices and was declining refunds from people that didn't even get sent the device and waited way over a year.

Oh and there are Android phones that can run on mainline kernels.
Wasn't there a still unexplained last-day hack of a fortune there?
That requires students to educate, and money to pay for the whole affair.
Linux (or rather Xorg) has support for 2 pointers. I wonder, if each mouse pulls on one side of the desktop, does it stretch or does it shatter?

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Multi-pointer_X

Linux being linux, I bet it rather deforms the fabric of time before stretching the other dimensions. Can’t wait for quantum computers with a 5th dimension.

Ask HN: Multi-tenant headless CRM with workflows and automations?
We are working on a product that could benefit from basic CRM functionality, like Leads and Contacts records, Marketing workflow automations (like webhooks, events), templates (emails, text messages), report, etc. Also, multi-tenancy, as I'll need separate namespace/environment for each customer of mine.

I prefer not to build it myself, but focus on a product where we actually can add value instead of reinventing the wheel.

Have you came by a good, customizable, "headless" CRM like that? Thank you.
Fire Sales Sweep the Creator Economy as Startups Struggle
I just looked it up and I was surprised to see Microsoft OneDrive launched only a few months after Dropbox. Seems like it did take a few years for the MS juggernaut to win out.
this reminds me of a bit in an Adam Curtis documentary HyperNormalization. In the 80s someone created a “Carl Rogers” chat bot that would always respond with phrases like “how does that make you feel?”. It had far less smarts than SHRDLU (basically a glorified for loop) but people who used it said that they did feel better after interacting with it.
I call it a disagreement, there are many of these kinds of disagreements especially in pedagogy. Sometimes people use strong and charged language in disagreements. It is not "intellectually dishonest" (quoting you, not Wadler since you still can't back that attribution) to write a book using Scheme just because others think Miranda (at the time, or another language today) would have been a better language. It would only have been intellectually dishonest if they knowingly chose Scheme to create an inferior experience (to what purpose?).

And I still contend that you are an intellectually dishonest person until you can properly attribute that quote to Wadler, or concede that you were wrong and made a false claim.
> experiencing this "micro-structure" is also a mind-expanding experience: The sky is no longer a set of random point sources. Its an organic "thing" enclosing other "things".

It seems I need to find a new place to work, so sad.
"Let’s fix it, not abandon it."

I'm not saying to abandon it. I'm saying if the question is efficiency, that particular homeschooling model is very efficient, even if other arrangements need to be made for certain segments of the population (I would revise your "non-wealthy" statement to be "poor" as much of the middle class could make that system work).

Of course there have been multiple attempts to fix the system already. So far we haven't seemed to find the solution. Back to your "non-wealthy" comment, even the current system tends to fail the poor, since parent involvement is one of the largest factors for academic success (this is largely tied to two parent households, but income plays a role as well).
I have never been at that altitude but I had a similar experience in the Sahara a few years ago. My experience was enhanced with a little bit of Moroccan hashish. I laid on a dune and gazed at the sky and the heavens were blazing with light. I felt like I was falling into the stars. It was unforgettable. A clear sky at night is the farthest thing from dark!
I got really into fencing as a kid, which for whatever reason attracted a lot of private school and homeschooled kids, so I got to interact with the whole spectrum. I'm in an affluent, highly secular area, so this was basically the best case scenario for those homeschooled, and they were still definitely weird.

No amount of artificially constructed socialization immersion is going to beat the organic development of spending several hours, every day, surrounded by a ton of other kids.

What you end up with is a kid who has marginal experience with conflict resolution, communication skills, and any degree of independence. Which in turn, makes them perceived as weird, meaning that when they do have social interactions with others, they get marginalized, and further deprived of social development.

Public schools definitely have a misalignment of interests problem, but private schools solve that problem without stunting your child's charisma.
It is the closest we have to a freedom respecting device. The baseband processor is still a closed blob but it is a lot better than pretty much everything else out there. Maybe Pinephone eventually will get there as well.

Yeah this how you grow to the point of destruction. Your schema is half noise and nobody understands it. Then someone says you need to start from scratch.
Your memories are spot on. ;)
Hard to open packages are tamper evident. These transparent packaging are only used heat sealed in markets where otherwise kids would open boxes and steal products.
Yeah I would definitely miss that, as well as the shape.
Smaller coworking spaces ought to develop partnerships with other small spaces in other cities, to allow their customers the same “I can work from any city” perk that WeWork does. Fancy social clubs do this—e.g., if you have a membership at the Alta Club in Salt Lake City, it gets you access to the New York Athletic Club, etc.
Maybe some of the people in mainstream militaries are psychopaths who try and kill innocent families to spread terror. And I think some cases like the firebombing of Japan and Germany do fall under that. But on the whole I think I'm mainstream militaries such actions are the exception and goals and targets are military.

In this case there was no parading over the body of an enemy. This wasn't an enemy this was a girl in her early 20s. How is she an enemy, she didn't do anything. We don't even know maybe she opposed Israel settlements and wanted a different approach to Gaza.

The difference with groups like Hamas is they don't care, everyone is an enemy deserving of rape and torture, even random girls in their 20s. It's not the same thing, comparing this intentional attack to unintentional breaks of discipline or accidents in military contexts seems insane in my mind. The difference is Hamas intentionally targets civilians as their official policy, that's their organizational approach.
I also grew up in a smallish town, it was always odd to hear visitors comment on the sky. It was just normal to see many stars, even in town. Visiting big cities at night always had an oppressive feeling to it, like having been mugged.
Regus / Spaces (the "hipper" version of Regus, same parent company) existed long before WeWork. They're not as nice because they're run as an actual business but they do exist around the world and are perfectly fine places to get work done.
Pretty sad. I hope someone picks up the pieces and keeps the company going. Say what you will about the company and it's leadership, but WeWork as a service was splendid. Yes, there's lots of other short-term office providers, but I never found a competitor that executed on the vision of a world-wide lattice of places from which to work.

Having a place to work vastly opened up my vacation cycles. Instead of travelling for a single weekend, I could go visit a friend in Paris, or Mexico City, or back home, or wherever. During the week when people worked, I would work out of a WeWork. Come 4-5pm, I'd go hangout with the people I wanted to see. Suddenly a long-weekend trip could be feasibly expanded to a week or longer without much hassle.
Recently there was a video link posted here about the process of aligning the JWST's 18 mirror segments that shed light on the complexity. The task looked challenging at 18, but it goes to mind boggling at 798 segments of the ELT primary mirror. The level of impressiveness is astronomical.
I won’t be sad to see them go. They were the most arrogant company I ever had the misfortune of dealing with (particularly for such a subpar product). If they treated their other customers like they treated me it’s no surprise they’re going bankrupt.
Not OP but here what we have is some routine to get a fact from the DB (eg Customer->getOrders()) and the routine is schema aware. On v0 it queries a table with one rules, on v1 it's a different slightly different query. So, one small schema mod to eg add a column. Roll out. Another schema mod to populate, possibly a few days later, then roll out queries over a few days, then, later slowly remove the dead parts of the schema and then later drop the legacy code using the old columns. The process can take weeks. And some throwaway code (scaffolding I say) has to pass through the system. I recently was able to clean up and old view that took months to process through (we're a small team)

One recent one was moving from bitflags in an int column to flags in a jsonb column. Tedious.

What makes it work? Testing, testing, testing and management that gives time for that process.
WeWork's innovation was "doing exactly that with vc money"
For what it's worth, I would be willing to pay full price for YouTube Premium without YouTube Music. The value is there for me, but I voted with my wallet when they replaced a perfectly good music app with YouTube Music and I'm not willing to send a single penny to the replacement.

I think a good developer is composed of many things, and LeetCode/HackerRank type learning can help you become better at only a small subset of those things.

It's like trying to get your body into good shape, you need to work on different parts of the body, not just focus on your left arm (unless your left arm is especially weak and you want to focus on that).
Show HN: Halloween game to show off my new Terminal
Hi hi,

I made a little Halloween themed game this week to show off my new terminal. You can play it in the browser. at https://joel.tools/halloween/

Two years ago, I started building an experiment tracking tool for myself as I have been venturing into ai research, and it has morphed into a terminal with rich content support and a bunch of fancy features. https://github.com/JoelEinbinder/snail/

I can't recommend people start using snail for important stuff today, but I think the game is fun and it shows off a lot of the capabilities of the terminal.

Regus has been around for a long time, I worked out of one of their offices in the mid-90s.

The great thing was that shared office space was new to most people, so when clients would visit they'd be impressed with the fancy building, the marble reception, and the huge conference room, and not know we were a 2-person shop renting a 6'x8' office.

It's unlikely to go into liquidation and actually shut down.

This bankruptcy is about renegotiating and possibly exiting leases where they're not making money, and pushing that loss onto the building owners instead.

There will be fewer WeWork locations, but the company will still exist.
Unfortunately there’s nothing correct about that answer. There’s no tcp service listening for requests like that on port 7000 on an AppleTV.
Not just 100% unit test coverage but e2e integration tests too. My company really struggles with the latter because they take forever to run and they are flakey as heck. Most of our bugs are from badly mocked services.
I interviewed with them. The recruiter, I could barely understand. I got the 3rd interview after 5 months. They told me to click on a link where they would ask me to code live. They could see what I was doing. I wrote a simple Python algorithm to a problem they gave me to solve. Complete irrelevant to what I had applied for. I thought it was a joke at first, then I visited their website. I cannot recommend anyone this service. So unorganized. I too wanted to contribute in the tech areas since we all know how much they lack in that department.
Of course they are not ignoring the problem, internally. The issue issue at hand is that they are not being open about the problem.
Asahi is very close to daily driver material so it's likely that Macs will be the first viable ARM Linux laptops, funny enough.

But it would certainly be great to see more variety, and with a standard (ie: UEFI based) install process.

I would already be rocking an X13s if the Linux support was there.

If i travel to the eu as an American does that mean it’s illegal to track me while present in their territory? Would I be able to sue them and which country would be most favorable for the largest payout if so?

In the case of Phind though, they also publish their models on HF with similar bold performance claims without publishing the datasets: https://huggingface.co/Phind/Phind-CodeLlama-34B-v2

Even I am to grant that their subscription product has some secret sauce they want to keep close to the chest (ignoring for a moment their paid product is GPT-4 based), not doing the same for all the models they release to the open source community free of charge with a commercially-permissible license seems suspect.

I realize this sort of open source contribution is mostly for marketing purposes, but being critical of the performance claims I think is still valid nonetheless.
The first counter simply counts, so when you sample it you get a pseudorandom number. (Assuming the sampling time is random.) Then applying the mask gives you the power of 2 scaling.
Not everyone gets a top notch lawyer and money for bail through.
Well, yeah.

If somebody's rich enough to provide a better education to their child despite the economy of scale advantage public/private schools have, then homeschooling can be advantageous. If somebody can't do that, then they're just abusing their kid.
It says something about the past few years that large established companies started renting premium space in WeWork buildings so they could imagine that they were a 2 person shop renting a 6'x8' office!

Good context to share. I'm on the younger side, so when I entered the work force I think basically WeWork popularized this concept beyond what it had been. At least, it was the first place to expose me to that kind of work environment, which previously I was unaware had existed.

Bethesda has, in fact, taken issue with OpenMW in the past [0].

Bethesda at least had a specific reason for going after OpenMW, though. They’re okay with it now under “certain conditions” that I’m sure the OpenMW devs aren’t going to argue with.

Their main ask was that the OpenMW devs don’t advertise OpenMW as a way to play Morrowind on Android (or other platforms besides PC).

And there’s an understanding that OpenMW’s “intention” isn’t solely to be a way to play Morrowind, but also to implement a generic RPG engine and editor that uses Morrowind’s gameplay and file structure. For someone to make their own game with, not using any of Morrowind’s assets. (I’m not sure if any such game exists, though)

While I was trying to learn computer graphics I came across those extensions. I find them easy to understand, cause you know what is in each file and your editor can understand the syntax, making it easier to spot mistakes, like `1. instead of 1` when the program expects as float.
