I was just discussing using ChatGPT to make working with deploying serverless code easier.

I gave this as an example

“create a CDK typescript app that deploys a lambda + API Gateway where the lambda works with Get request and a dynamodb table. The lambda should have permission to read and write to the Table”

It wrote the code perfectly. I wanted to see if it was trained on the AWS APIs.

- The UNIX philosophy of simple, simple-purpose software that interoperates well.

- Privacy by default. It's a lot easier to navigate GDPR if you don't collect personal data.

- Write simple software with few dependencies. I'm tired of maintaining systems. I want technology to require as little attention as possible.
'Mass exploitation' of Citrix Bleed underway as ransomware crews pile in
Thanks for the suggestion.

Yep, I looked them up. That seems about the only brand I'd have trusted (need high performance HDMI/DP), but the price is too high for my liking. We're looking at 300+ USD w/o tax.

I've gone with a docking station [1] for my MBP because it also has 100W PD (a big pro as it saved me from buying another power adapter). I put my monitor from DP to HDMI1 and it works. Since it is China ware I don't use the ethernet port. YMMV! And I still have to use the second keyboard. Which sucks. Perhaps I could retry Barrier specifically for that. I also haven't thought of sound yet. On the PC I use a Logitech headset with a user serviceable battery. It uses a proprietary USB-A dongle.

[1] https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005300851711.html (the 'pro' version, and no I didn't buy it because of the lame LED strip but because it was a good price/performance thingy. I did read reviews on docking stations before I purchased)
I had a good time in public schools. All my friends were there, and we had a lot of fun.

Didn't learn much of anything, though, which became apparent during the disastrous first week of college.
I have no idea why this is fun, but on AI chat-bots, i always test

2 + 2(2-2)

Should be answer of 2, however on different bots (not just GPT) i have gotten 0, 2, 4 and 6 (all i can understand except the 6).

So yeah.......math messes with some bots, who would of guessed.
Can you share what your long term monetization model is? I'm noticing Phind is free to use right now.
Of course, because they do have backups. Lol.

So far only the central bank of Sambia had a backup and could just ignore the ransom.
My problem has always been with the percentages used on certain things; like commissions. Just make it a flat fee. Things that require agent's time like open houses; bill for that. It's the essentially the same effort on a $100K house and a $500K house and a $1M house. Maybe once you get to $5M+ houses the fees need to increase since this is a different class of RE with much smaller pool of buyers. But still should be fixed amount and not percentages.

In my area, since I bought my first house 10 years ago house prices have 4X'd. I don't think the wages of most professions have, the demand for housing makes it easier to sell, so why should agents be making 4X more?

The advantage of public school isn't that the socialization is super high quality, but that it's going to be broader spectrum than pretty much any alternative.

It's not about getting your kids to form the best relationships possible, it's about teaching them to be comfortable with and learn to handle a huge swathe of people that are different from themselves.

And, possibly more importantly than that, it's about teaching kids to do this without the immediate presence of their parents.

Are public schools a perfectly diverse cross section of the population? Of course not. Are they a whole lot closer than very nearly any private school or home school? Absolutely.
It's ideology. If you're invested in taking those things out of education, and that's your motivator, then you have a couple of options: encourage homeschooling, where it can't be mandated, or work to remove it from public schools. Who is to say you can't do both? After all, either achieves your ideological aims.
Today I asked ChatGPT4 (openai.com Version) how I can create a copy of a typescript object containing only the fields of a specific type.

This is not possible, as typescript (still, unfortunately) doesn't support runtime code generation for its type information.

Nevertheless, ChatGPT tried various approaches to "make it work". It reminded me very much of a brainstorming session with Junior Engineers.

I couldn't get it to simply state "Not possible". Even after four iterations.

Could share the conversation, but would prefer to only share if someone wants me to.

TL;DR: LLMs, even the most sophisticated ones, continue to disappoint and underdeliver¹. Posting this as a former ChatGPT4-Enthusiast. I still think we're using LLMs in the wrong way and do not exploit the full potential yet, and there is space (lots of!) to improve, or alternatively, there are limits to accept.

¹ in this case, it's really easy to pinpoint why the answer is wrong because it requires just a little bit of knowledge of the specific technology. But a so-easy-to-spot error, produced by the most expensive, hardest-to-train LLM model we currently have is a telltale sign that something is off. And will continue to be off, even for ChatGPT5.
I had a bug in my flutter app. The Phind model nailed it straight away. GPT-4 gave a working but awful solution.
I remember playing Galaga while Tekken loaded on the PS1.
> You have no obligation or liability to except a lower offer or reduce your list price, ever

That’s true but in my experience they will pressure you to do so.
You do not need it. This is a really weird attitude. Until like the late '00s "telemetry" was, full stop, spyware (still is, for those of us who didn't shift our attitudes with the prevailing winds). I wouldn't say that responsiveness to user needs and desires has improved since then, in software design.

// It’s a refuge for indoctrination, meaning you aren’t allowed to truly question.

The idea that religion has any kind of market cornered on THAT concept in the last 7-10 years is a non-starter.
Maybe the superintelligence builds this cool social media platform that results in a toxic atmosphere were democracy is taken down and from there all kinds of bad things ensue.
How does Softbank still keep standing? They keep losing on the vast majority investment they've made, and yet they haven't come up against any financial issues? I feel like Softbank going bankrupt is going to be the Black Swan that affects Silicon Valley the most.
I'm not sure how illegally sabotaging the income generating platform you're negotiating for a larger cut of would be anything other than extremely counterproductive
I meant that saying "something is inconsistent sometimes" is weird because inconsistency implies "sometimes"
One screen for intellij, one screen for tests, one screen for browser or email, for instance
Maybe there was something else unattractive about your offer and the 2.8 fell through? Happens all the time.

When I sold a house recently I took the second highest offer, because the highest offer came from someone out of state who had never set foot in the house
I don't think "correct" is the right word since these were open ended systems design type questions. There are many ways to accomplish the same task.

I also spent about 20 minutes on this which is why I mentioned this is a first impression. I'll leave it to researchers to develop a "relevancy" metric and objectively apply it.

In my experience, the sources were sufficiently relevant based on its responses. They were about as relevant as equivalent Google queries. Some tiny, tiny niggles, like I was explicit I wanted it to recommend approaches in Go and for one reference I recall related to distributed locking mechanisms it provided a reference to an implementation in Java. However, that is completely fine for me since the context was more about the locking on the database side and not really the implementation in a specific language.
This is going on for a while on facebook afaik. On youtube and twitter they are still a url param that you can strip out.
I personally know multiple people who homeschooled their kids to avoid discussing evolution. There's even been debate at state board of education levels about how evolution is taught in public schools. There's absolutely a lot of people who want to teach their kids humans and dinos existed at the same time.
Great for them. The mobile app, at least for me, is getting unusuble. I have a crappy phone and reopening a page takes 3x the time opening a new tab and writing the url does.

Even then it's still significantly slower than chrome, even with ads.

I think it's time I find a different mobile browser with adblocking.
Cool let's deconstruct:

>Didn’t vice catch a bunch of flack for over sensationalizing their “reporting?”

Awesome ad hominem against the people recording actual Nigerians testimony.

>Regardless I’d be more inclined to believe an actual Nigerian than a YouTube video

And I provide video with actual Nigerians yet it's crickets from you when some guy just flippantly says I'm wrong with no supporting facts. Unless by actual Nigerians you want one to jump through the screen and talk to us... we're going to have to settle for electronic communication. It's what worth noting the Nigerian commenter above denied ransomware related activities but never denied the rest.

>That person didn’t say there were zero people doing this, they said it wasn’t likely Nigeria had a widespread and systemic issue with organized crime doing this.

They said what they said, not what you've retranslated them to say. I never said the issue was systemic, but if they really said that then their flippant dismissal was just as invalid as they'd be addressing a strawman.

(but yes, it probably is, even with 40GB of memory. I bet many things are designed on Linux with overcommit as an assumption)

> Why are you frequently switching away from the timer after setting it but before starting it?

Example: I boil water in a kettle for tea. I set the timer to the correct steeping time. I open the top of the kettle to let the water cool off for a bit for it to be appropriate for the type of tea I'm making. Before the water gets to the right temperature, I get an SMS or someone calls me. I then get back to the app, but the timer value is wrong.

But really the main failure mode is the lock screen, not switching to another app. I set the timer value to what I want and leave the phone on a tabletop until the time comes to start the timer. But the timer app behaves like an attention-seeking child which punishes me if I don't give it constant attention. So you can replace getting an SMS/getting called in the above with just putting the phone down until it's needed. It's nice to separate those two steps, when you want to be more precise.

Scenario 2: I want to make soft-boiled eggs, so I set the timer value to 3 minutes and put the phone down until water starts boiling. I lower the temperature for the water to simmer. And start the timer.

> This was willfully done this way, probably due to another customer's Feedback submission.

I find it hard to believe that someone would want their timer to reset to a value they used the last time they pressed the Start button, instead of staying at whatever value they've just selected. The previous value is likely to be completely unrelated to what they're doing the next time. Previously you were cooking eggs, now you're making tea, later you're frying steaks, ...

I think tpmx's suggestion that it may be a bug introduced in a SwiftUI rewrite more likely, especially given
Jtsummers's observation that all that's needed is switching to another view.
Aren't those links about a completely different project with a completely different name?
Why is number one the most boggling? Not dealing with sewage correctly is a public health hazard. In most places if there is a sanitary sewer hookup you must, by law, connect to it. Now in your particular case they don't have a sewage lift, but if one is ever installed it is likely you will have to connect to it if you ever need to do septic maintenance again. I certainly hope your municipality requires regular inspections of your septic so you're not flowing shit water into the local environment.
It's not though because you can just buy chemistry books on Amazon, or if you want privacy, with cash at a university bookstore. The information is not at all controlled. People have to be warned not to mix certain household products so as not to create deadly gas by accident.
If you think about the problems to solve in a real estate transaction are roughly as follows:

Seller problems:
1) Maximize selling price
2) Minimize damage to property / theft
3) Minimize cleaning / preparation for showings

Buyer problems:
1) Minimize purchase price
2) Minimize number of hidden problems with house

One would think that realtors might help to maximize selling price but their incentives are much more aligned with selling a property quickly as it is less work that way. For the most part, they solve seller problem #2 by acting as a kind of well dressed (and likely not very tough) security guard.

The pricing problem could arguably be solved by having something along the lines of a Dutch auction. Many of the uncertainties (largely not addressed with the current system) could be solved via insurance.
> If something happens to my children and I'm even just negligent then I will pay the ultimate price. You cannot ensconce in me this responsibility and then deny my authority to exercise control over them to maintain it.

That's demonstrably false.

You can do plenty of neglectful or negligent things to your children and face zero consequences.
A fascination with history is good! I'm not entirely sure why people are downvoting.

The only thing that I would suggest is learning about "historiography". As that's very important when you are learning about "contested" or "active" fields of historical research.

History is always biased, and often is used as a way to frame the present, more than it is the past.

to your point, Learning about the history of the empire is currently difficult for a number of reasons:

1) certain parts of the world are deeply ashamed of it, and will readily believe the worst, even if its logically not actually true.

2) other parts truly believe it was the best thing since sliced bread and civilised the world.

the truth lies in between.

Because the empire is now partly wrapped up in a culture war (renaming of streets, statues etc) internet and popculture sources for history tend to be either hyperbolic or really black and white.

For example "England was the real empire builder and Scotland were also victims and were not really involved." This is patent bollocks for a number of reasons not least of which Scotland had a much higher rate of literacy and numeracy, so were needed to actually run the empire. However this view as scotland being the Victim of Englands bloodthirsty slave trade, is a device that is (mostly unwittingly) used to further the othering of the UK to allow for scots independence.

This is where historiography comes in, an academic or, group of people will set out with a new narrative (Scots were the victims of empire) and start searching for sources to back that up. They will write a set of papers that will put forward the narrative. It will be challenged by others and perhaps it will shift accepted opinion on the matter.

Another example is "Britain stood alone against the germans in WWII and won the war". was very fashionable up until recently. Now people are pointing out that it had the biggest economy by far, and it's empire covered large parts of the planet. It wasn't one island, it was an entire empire. More over, it almost single handedly funded the American industrialisation that kickstarted the post war American boom.

Keep looking, keep questioning sources and motivations (including mine.)
Yeah, no, that is delusional.

Sure, you can go the purist route if you want. But it is not either or, few things in life are.
The space a person inhabits is an inanimate object.

Whether a space is occupied or not is an observation of the space. What an inhabited space looks like is an observation of both the space and its occupants.
If we get to WW3, It all depends on how well the Soviet Union's massive nuclear arms stockpile has held up under 30+ years without maintenance. If more than 1% work, there won't be a world economy. If more than 10% work, we're back down to the few handfuls of survivors who luck out with regards to fallout, etc.

However, if the US isn't willing to wait long enough to find out, and launch the US stockpile first... it's game over.
What's the best way to use an LLM with a large codebase that isn't RAG? Ideally we could have the full source in the context or already trained into the model... I was thinking I could set something to fine tune a model overnight and every morning I'd have a fresh one ready. Any ideas?
AV1 hardware support is great and all, but what streaming services actually support it? Twitch did a pilot back in 2020 and the video quality was fantastic. They still haven't rolled it out.
...yeah.

At least I don't have to use all these things. `tracing` itself is essentially mandatory if I want to pick up all the spans and events created by the crates I depend on. But I can (and maybe will...) write my own `tracing::Subscriber`, sidestepping all the various bugs and incompatibilities of `tracing-subscriber` and `opentelemetry{-,otlp,-datadog}`.

(Here's another fun one in `tracing-subscriber`: <https://github.com/tokio-rs/tracing/issues/2519#issuecomment...> These interfaces just aren't right.)
I turn it off because I can’t tell the difference and if it doesn’t improve anything for me, I might as well not have the system wasting battery and other resources on it.

The notion that you should sacrifice your children on the alter of some notion of egalitarianism is something I find deeply immoral.

If I have a duty to my child it is too ensure that he has the best opportunity to lead a happy, fulfilling life.
I do particularly enjoy tricks of the form "Do the trick, explain the trick, do the trick again a different way that precludes the first explanation". Those are fun. Penn and Teller use that format a lot.

I do know that when I explain tricks to people, they're often disappointed. I often hear, "Oh, they just lied to me." Yeah, they did. I mean just really bald-faced lies, not sleight-of-hand or illusions or misdirection or other cleverness.
Yes bad EU case law that can't be fixed with legislation has been a common complaint of both political parties and independent groups over the years. An example is the Charter of Fundamental Rights which the UK and Poland thought they had negotiated an opt-out of, on the grounds that it was bad law and they didn't want it to apply. The opt-out was negotiated and agreed between all countries and was written in a simple and supposedly "watertight" way. The ECJ simply ignored the agreement and ruled the UK had to obey the Charter anyway.

https://www.politics.co.uk/news/2013/11/13/the-stolen-refere...

It was one of the events that led to the ECJ's perception as an activist court that makes EU law unknowable, because what is or is not illegal can't be understood by reading the treaties or laws. Here's an example of some British lawyers expressing that view:

https://lawyersforbritain.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/eu-...

The effects of the Charter, whether applied to UK laws made before or after Brexit, cannot be predicted as its operation would be dependent on the rapidly evolving and expansionist case law of the European Court of Justice, and would open the door to judicial adventurism in our own courts.

Not just the UK has complained about this. Here's an example of corruption in the ECJ uncovered by Irish journalists, in which the ECJ was trying to surreptitiously expand EU powers:

https://euobserver.com/investigations/131569

It is clearly corrupt to hear a bogus case like that where the plaintiff doesn't even know they're in a court case at all and both sides are represented by the same firm, yet nothing was ever done about it.
I read the part where the people who were paid to use the iPhone 15 to film their videos told the company paying them lots of money to do that they enjoyed using it to film those specific videos.

And then I noticed that those same professionals went right back to using regular video cameras for their next shoots. (See e.g., Olivia Rodrigo...who shot 1 music video with an iPhone 15 because Apple paid $$$ for to do it and went right back to using regular video equipment for everything else. Also Sodenberg, for an earlier version of the iPhone, who uses regular video equipment after that brief, well-funded experiment.)
As, understandably, is everyone.

Yes you eventually need to do the things you mention but probably less frequently than a normal application needs to add new columns or the like to support new use cases.

The article thesis is essentially make breaking changes as infrequently as possible. The easiest way to do that is never change your data but that’s a sure way to have your competitors crush you as you stagnate. The next best thing you can do is make sure existing producers and consumers are not impacted when you make changes. For most changes being made the advice in the article gives a set of things you can do to achieve this goal.

For times where your database itself is not scaling which are the types of things you’re mentioning, I think there are other things you can do to, if not eliminate backwards incompatibility, at least make the transition easier. For example fronting your DB via an API and gate all producers/consumers through that. If you’re frequently having to handle scaling issues perhaps it’s time to reevaluate your system design all together.
Interesting, must be only happening on some native MBP displays. I'm on an M1 MBP and haven't tested it on an external display but it's definitely noticeable on mine, although not as big of a deal as the letter spacing thing
