> Convoy, the Seattle-based, Jeff Bezos-backed freight brokerage that shut down last week amid a financial crisis, is in talks to sell its technology to another freight logistics startup, San Francisco-based Flexport, The Wall Street Journal reported Friday morning. The deal would provide Flexport with Convoy’s technology as well as a “small team of business, product and tech experts” from the Seattle firm . . .

Great! So they can help onboard the new applications and then get laid off again.
I did back in ~2017 or so while I was working at $BIGAZURECUSTOMER. It was tough getting a hold of the right person in support, so we pulled some backchannel strings. Turns out an update to their hardware had disabled ECC on some switches.
I think it works pretty well as a programming assistant for that reason, because you can, well, just run the code that it produces to verify if it's wrong or not.

TBD on whether the architectural suggestions it suggests actually pay off in the long run but in my experience if you give it two solutions and ask it to weigh the pros and cons of those solutions it's pretty good at that. It's also decent at coming up with alternatives as well, but you have to prompt it to do that. It is totally happy to not consider any other alternatives unless you ask it to.
That pic came from a whole series of pics. So they certainly know who that guy was, at the least.

That his pictures were being used to shock people might have shocked him, since that probably wasn't his original intention, other than for the fetish aspect of what he's doing in that picture spread.

Ahem. Spread. Sorry about that.
One more thing, indeed the book addressed the problem we see today with Intel, ARM, and mobile devices: he call them 10X forces and inflection points. Obviously Intel hasn't recognized the concepts clearly defined in the book.

BTW, I think this is a book recommended to any entrepreneur since it addresses atemporal concepts and you return to the book anytime you gain more experience to clarify your experiences.

Hippies have been doing housing co-ops for a long time, and they work kind of like this, and they are mostly (in my experience) cool places.

A bunch of people get together and buy a house which they can then live in as a community. As time goes on people move in and out, and in general these function as very cheap shared housing with no landlord and (usually) a flat, non-hierarchical structure. There are usually expectations on pitching in to maintain and run the house.

Radical Routes is the org that helped out most of the groups that I knew:
https://www.radicalroutes.org.uk/

Lots of homebrew country wines, asylum seekers in a raised bed above the stairs, curry, good parties and messy drama.

Of course you still find the full spectrum of human bad behavior in any place like this, but generally my limited experience was that these places attract thoughtful, creative, slightly weird people and are shining beacons of an alternative way of doing things.

To the note in the article about rules, my weak impression was that the more systematic, sincere, organized co-ops tended to be the ones that survived - hands-off tended to turn rotten after a while. There's definitely some sort of alchemy involved in making the thing successful.
It isn't opposing AI. It is AI.
Right, I also don't see one but it seems like the comments were immediately plentiful.
I don't know the answer to that exactly, suffice to say that I'm all in favor of building apartments, but there is no obvious limit to how many people might want to live in a city. If Lisbon is a global city, there's no amount of apartments they can build to ensure that there are enough for natives.
I also go mildly crazy without the daily walkabout
A much more common source of bitflips is from heat. If you run a desktop computer with more than about 32GB of RAM you probably have bitflips from the heat alone- which is part of why DDR5 adds a weaker form of error correction as standard.
Because the calculator does not really take into account the 35% social security if the money is paid by a foreign entity to the foreigner directly.

@binarycrusader: I can‘t reply below. It‘s not 35% but 34,75%. It‘s easy to find that online and this rate is not depending on the person. A foreigner or nomad does by definition not have a Portuguese employer. They have to pay the employer part themselves. It‘s that simple.

@binarycrusader: It‘s mentioned on countless sites related to the NHR and Golden Visa and all of these things. I talked this through with two Portuguese accountants. Is that enough?
In a lot of these BEAM threads I see certain features listed as "part of the benefits", but when I look to see who is using them in production, most of the advice is "don't use that, use an established service to do that".

This is usually things around either ETS/mnesia for state storage or doing hot-releases, both of which I find most people in the community recommend _against_.

A few examples:

- Server-wide state
- Persistable data
- Background Jobs

Having worked in a heavy Erlang codebase and enjoyed some of the features of it, but realized some of the shortcomings where when reliability is a primary concern (medical/healthcare), a lot of the advice changes.

Though I haven't written any F# in a while, I was always curious to see how F# + https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/orleans/overview (virtual actors) would feel comparatively.
Not really. They actually ran mock trials with legal professionals as test cases. That was an instant win for anyone wanting assurance of admissibility.

No open source startup is going to win there because it's about entities and process, supported by technology not technology on its own. The technology is absolutely worthless without the framework and legal entities surrounding it. It's a unique position no one really understands that well.
They’re false claims. And I didn’t bring up the false claims FP programmers make until you asked for it to happen. I simply said that rejecting the ridiculous silver bullet claims that FP programmers make is completely fine because they don’t provide any evidence and that which is asserted without evidence can be dismissed without it.

Not that that matter because all of those claims are demonstrably false anyway!
That is a great input, we need to put efforts into ensuring that we are seen as a long term player, in-fact we envision to be one, assuming some contracts might be really long term. I hope a day comes when you trust us enough :)
Sure, but the social security contributions and tax rates vary wildly based on who your employer is, etc. so it's misleading to claim it's 88% without specifying the specific conditions. Also, according to the WikiPedia page, none of the Social Security Contribution rates are exactly 35%. Would you care to share the exact conditions? I don't read this the same way: can you point to which "Social Security Regime" on the WikiPedia page you believe this falls under?

AI deployed to counteract the impact of AI: "With Anti-ChatGPT, you as an individual have the power to fight the AIs trying to manipulate you."

Whether the product itself opposes AI or is AI or both is immaterial, since the description of the product on the repo takes a "politically biased" position.
This is me. Just bought a CRV Hybrid, as a long time Honda driver, and I love it.

I would’ve bought electric except that most of them have taken Tesla’s example and decided that electric has to also mean “screens and weird design decisions everywhere”. I could deal with that, all things being equal, but the price premium just pushes the decision over the line. I might’ve also made the leap to Tesla since it’s competitive on price now but I’m not in an area where service would be convenient (even if good/fast)
> This idea has been successfully used by likes of android chromeOS and such to create seamless and risk free updates.

Those are not updates, they are just containers deployments at the end of the day (Flatpak and all related technologies).

> your normal distro does updates by pulling every package on your system and swapping files mid running this can cause miriad of issues just by doing it and another miriad if update is stopped mid updating(not always but sometimes). So this means your system is being recomposed at runtime

In practice rolling distros so that every day, with very little issues. (Arch is a good example of that).
At the same time it's not just big brother surveillance. Kids tend to know their cellphone can track them (in fact there have been articles here about kids wanting their parents to be able to track them), but more so they know each one of their peers has a cellphone that can be used to record their own actions.

You don't need big brother when you have an actual brother the could be recording your at any moment. I guess the only thing I can really place it with is how back in the USSR days, us US GenX'ers were always talking about how the KGB gets you because your neighbor turns you in.
sleep, healthy food, exercise.

i’ve been doing max 1hr exercise every other day, alternating between two routines. you want to be sore on the off days, but not annoyingly so. adjust routines over time as needed.

1hr means it easy to squeeze in. typically it’s in the long dinner break time between morning computer time and evening computer time. pre-dinner obviously.

toss a yoga mat on the floor next to your desk. one routine can be stuff like pushups, situps, mountain climbers. the other can be working a single dumbbell alternating arms.

you can also figure out a quick 10 minute streching routine, and do it every day mid day and before bed. toe touch, down dog, quads.

chin up, you got this!

I've seen very few chargers with prominent signage, visible from a major road (the ones in supermarket parking lots usually can't be seen until you're there), or next to existing gas stations. I also haven't seen any entertainment media showing someone plugging in or unplugging their EV, whether through product placement or organic scriptwriting.

How else, in America, will the non-enthusiasts realize that owning an EV could be a practical option, even an ordinary one?
And in this thread we have AI Arms Race Janken.
> This is completely normal

Yes, it is. It's even hard for a US citizen like me to find jobs that don't require some proof of citizenship that I don't have. IDs cost money here, money that I don't have because I can't get a job, because they want my ID.
European Union (and some states connecting with the same infrastructure, like Switzerland), have standardized formats as well as defined CAs that provide certificates for "qualified" signatures, which have the same legal weight as if you had a printed document with physical signature.

DocuSign supports those mainly through some interop connections where, for example, a qualified signature vendor provides an API that DocuSign can use to sign the document.
I'm used to elasticity in terms of something like oil where people will pay for it, whatever the cost. I guess creative endeavors are the same, just on the other side. There will always be another artist willing to work for nothing in hopes of getting discovered.

An ER could easily triage people into an urgent care wing of the hospital, but hospitals don't have those. Because they don't have any incentive to provide anything resembling cost effective care.

DEWS have pretty severe limitations on range: blooming, inverse square law, particulates, humidity, weather, etc etc. Add relatively low weapon impact and the offensive applications are, eh, let's say not numerous. Defensive DEWS on the other hand . . that's where it's at. That's gonna shake things up, first in ships[1], then getting smaller and smaller. Like kilometer-thick armor made of light.

[1] We might see what's called "the return of scale", since more defense requires more lasers, more lasers means more power, more power means more nukes, and more reactor power means bigger bigger bigger. It could bring the concept of the "arsenal ship" back from the dead.
I am saying, if I can create a pipeline - which for shorts and simple stuff is fairly trivial - why not let GP deal with algo chasing?
I've got about 50 or 60 pilots from India and Venezuela doing circles around my local airport who would like to differ. What about using G100UL makes it inaccessible? Worst case scenario, if $1 per gallon makes that much of a difference, you can just drive your car less and ride your bike around the neighborhood to offset the cost of fuel.
3 words make your argument smell: "in my opinion". Are we talking facts or your opinion being represented as facts?

So if it's facts, got sources?
> Shouldn‘t these millions benefiting from european freedom of movement justify a mere 20k nomads in Lisbon?

Portugal is making very little money from its emigrants anyway. I doubt they have more than 100k nomads, i suppose most of them would live in the biggest cities, and while they make the housing problem worse, most likely the problem would exist without them because portugal has the same structural problems with other southern eu countries. (Plus nomads by definition move elsewhere over a short time)
I think flask and fastapi are just intended to be very basic easy and quick and that's why they don't include this type of thing.
You could set up a watchdog of some sort that reboots the system if it can't connect to the internet.
I think the proposed rule to replace the baud limits in VHF and above will make more of a difference.

All the major weak signal HF digital modes use low baud rates anyway to better deal with multipath interference that's common at those frequencies. Really the only mode we couldn't use here was PACTOR 4 - that was the mode people kept getting waivers of the rule for.
Show HN: Marmotte – Open-Source IT Asset Management Made Simple
certain things are cheaper compared to what they were paying at home. but you're still going to be spending more than a local would for the same amenities.

Case in point, I can spend $2400 for a basic 1 bedroom apartment in San Francisco or nyc or I can spend $1000 to live in a luxury villa in Bali or a nice furnished apartment in medellin colombia.

so yes they are spending less. but they are hardly low income by any stretch.

That's actually pretty funny. I imagine you were very pissed off when you first discovered that one.

I had a similarly flawed one. I had an alarm clock which had a MSF radio sync thing built in. But every time it resync'ed with the MSF time signal it'd make the same sound as the alarm for 2-3 seconds. You couldn't turn it off. This was invariably at 3AM or some horrible time. I eventually opened it up and cut the MSF antenna out and slept better knowing the clock was always slightly wrong.

It's not happening in “places”. That's the whole point. (If you trawl through my comment history, you'll notice I argue a lot on Hacker News, but that's very much a “hail Mary”: the learning and changing-my-mind is all happening elsewhere – “in the real world”, so to speak.)
Don’t a lot of teachers who have a masters get that degree later on after they’ve been teaching? (If I understand correctly, it’s a direct ticket to a pay raise).
My only gripe with this mode (with Opal in Sydney) is that you don’t get the trip fare displayed on the gate when you pay with a payment card. I imagine this is a technical limitation (Opal stores trip detais on-card, which it can’t do with a payment card), and is a low priority anyway (as you don’t need to know when to top up a payment card) but would be nice to have.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_medium_is_the_message

There is very little point in trying to 'fix' content streams by filtering, censoring, or 'making them safe'. The content is just bait, the consequences you are attempting to avoid by filtering or improving the stream of content are inevitable and unavoidable so long as you sell your attention to that content provider at all.

The mechanisms that are used to massage you into consuming more and more of that media stream are the things you should be concerned about, not what the specific message encoded into any specific piece.

Example: You scroll tiktok for an hour. You might see pro hamas videos, anti hamas videos. You might just see videos of puppies. Whatever the the algorithm shows you, the effect of the specific videos it shows you is so small as to be irrelevant compared to the way the application causes rewards to be triggered in your brain and encourages you to continue to use the app. Worrying about the details of specific videos it shows you is like worrying about whether your Oxycontin chewables are cherry or blue raspberry.

I love that this is demonstrated by the filter completely redacting literally every tweet in the example.
Even with the double taxation treaty, wouldn't an American pay the difference in Portugal? That would be significantly more?
To find something concrete against Huawei? Sources please, I was not able to find anything like that.
Attempts to manipulate public perception are usually launched as campaigns with lots of content pushing the same message, often in different ways. In the case of mass media, for example, you could detect manipulation efforts by finding commonalities across multiple articles from one media outlet or by finding commonalities across multiple media outlets. It's possible you could distill this down to something like "From October 14 through October 23, content from media outlets X, Y, and Z seem to be correlated and are pushing the same message, and that message is ---".

Having that knowledge would be extremely powerful, effectively neutering manipulation efforts by identifying them as such. A person is far less susceptible to manipulation if they are aware of the belief that the manipulator is attempting to instill in their mind.

what about allowing authentication, rather than encryption? like, let people send MAC-protected checksums and signatures to make plaintext verifiable.

I think it'd open up the possibilities of like, weather balloons streaming their telemetry openly, while ensuring the data they're reporting hasn't been forged, or letting anyone send random commands to it.
Region-based allocation by itself is definitely something to write about.

The SBCL implementation is a very self-documented example, which is helpful if you wish to make arena-based allocation available in your language.
It's pretty wild to have gone from watching a lecture from Neil Turok (who is currently my favorite theoretical physicist with a "here's my idea for what physics currently has wrong with its model") and looking at Wolfram's rambling.

Between this and the recent "techno-optimist" rant, I get the sense that maybe we shouldn't give popular voices platforms for things outside the scope that made them famous in the first place, and if they really have something interesting to say, it should be determined as such by the content of its argument and not the pseudo-authority of its author.

Michael Jordon didn't have a stellar baseball record and likely wouldn't have made the cut for a team if he wasn't Michael Jordon. And what I see a lot of these days are people that made a name for themselves metaphorically playing basketball suddenly blogging about baseball and getting way too much attention for what are fundamentally 0.202 batting average ideas.
This is one take, and one that has become very popular, but it's not necessarily the only take. In particular it presupposes that your number-like indeterminates can be both (a) multiplied and (b) added to numbers (and, implicitly, divided). Naturally the solution has to be a division algebra. If instead you asked the question "for what values of O would O^2 (v) = -v", or even just O^4 (v) = v, then you would be more content having the answer live in a different space, of operators on vectors rather than vectors themselves, instead of in a field extension of the present space. Of course they are basically isomorphic but I think the alternate interpretations are useful to keep in mind so that we don't accidentally assume our way into a box of our own making.

edit: I should add, by O^2 I mean O ∘ O, so there's no definition of "multiplication" on these necessarily, just composition.
@cactusplant: Correct. With a double taxation agreement you always pay the higher tax of both countries. Usually you pay the lower one to one country and the remaining part to the other one. But it depends on the countries and details.

So yes, it would be more but it would be doable. While the non-tax issues largely lack these agreements causing more problems.
Wow in Europe it's kinda the opposite. Most countries' regulators want us to die off so they can sell the bands for lots of money.

Unfortunately dieing off is exactly what's happening :(
You make this sound like it’s any different than in the United States.
