Again I think David Hahn is a perfect example of this. A "neutron source" is anything that emits neutrons, which includes natural radioactive decay. All he really achieved was extracting lots of radioactive material (legally) from all sorts of random household goods which have it. The problem is that the guy was exceptionally uninformed, which a chatbot could have actually helped him with, and was handling all the material in a way that likely shaved decades off of his own life.

For some contrast Cody's Lab had a great episode on his radioactive materials collection here. [1] He actually ended up getting a visit from the Feds after posting that and multiple other videos of a similar theme. They came, made sure everything was safe, helped him with a couple of things that weren't, and then went on their merry way.

The entire point of having a Free country is Freedom. When countries like China ban basically everything, it's not because their government is just full of malicious tyrants. They actually think they're creating a safer place for everybody. And they may even be right. But Freedom has its own value. It's unquantifiable, but take things to extreme and its preciousness becomes evident. A world of 24/7 surveillance, living in literal bubbles, and so on would be a near utopia on many quantifiable metrics - 0 crime, 0 communicable disease, and so on. Yet of course in reality it would be a complete and utter dystopia, because of that unquantifiable concept of Freedom.

An astronomical (sorry) amount of ancient knowledge was preserved because the islamic scholars valued learning. At times, the western educational circuit decried knowledge as being contrary to the proper order of the state, especially in the wrong hands.

I particularly like how this one, they have both the "look up, dummy" and "no, look at this globe" models. And, the Syncretism implicit in "yea, those romans called it this, but we call it that, so lets put a bit of roman polish in this picture you and I can relate to"

Also, the length of time as a continuity of (faulty, misapplied) knowledge to be able to say "yea, the stars DID look kinda different when they did this their time, we have to adjust for that now"

Having built a similar website focused on channel level search, I like reading these comments, having the same data as OP and filmot, and realizing they all hit different niches.

The dirty secret is that almost every award for companies is pay to play. Some just obfuscate it better than others (e.g. gartner, forester or other big boys) rather than making it a straight up cash for award play.

If you aren’t paying to talk to analysts, sponsor events for their customers, etc… they aren’t going to pay attention to you or listen to what kind of products/services you provide. You do the same thing with customers, put them on bullshit advisory boards or whatever.

Boom! You are part of a wave or end up in one of the quadrants.
Of course it’s my opinion that force is only justified in response to force, disagree?
I feel like there's an "aesthetic" to randomness, which I see in examples of Japanese wabi sabi. I don't know how to describe what that looks like in keypresses exactly, but if I imitate that, I'm able to keep the rolling average at <52% over a few hundred keypresses done with my eyes closed. I hit 51% three times in a row.

I question the relation to free will however--will seems more related to preference than randomness to me, and a better example of that would be something like "I prefer the f key". Conflating randomness with free will has always seemed like a weak attempt to argue for the existence of free will to me.

They didn’t limit copilot to active users who therefore have implied consent to ToS changes.

“Improving and developing products and services” doesn’t cover what they did. Which is why that line isn’t being brought up in the ongoing litigation.

Further, at scale they are well aware users didn’t own the copyright to all uploaded data making their ToS insufficient shielding for this use. Which is why they aren’t even trying to suggest the ToS enabled this kind of use as that suggests it would be required and opens themselves to massive amounts of liability.
Nevertheless, I find target retirement date funds pull out of stocks and move to bonds way too early. I’d probably only start moving out of stocks 2-3 years before retirement, based on how long recessions/crashes of the past lasted.

Historically, it looks like the risk of being in stocks as you approach retirement is pretty low. Let’s say you planned on retiring in 2009 at age 65. 2009 hits, stocks fall 50%… if you just continued working for 2-3 more years, your retirement account would be back at fresh all time highs AND you’d be collecting a larger SS paycheck each month when you retired at 67-68. Not exactly tragic.
The honest reason is that there is no practical reason to upgrade. The computer works, and despite the various FUD you might read, the attack surface for external attacks is quite small for personal computers.

That said, if anyone would like to send me $4000, I will absolutely upgrade to a new 14" Macbook in a heartbeat.

Personal-professional relationships are stronger than professional images, especially as it becomes less and less possible to get a job without a well-placed reference from a friend who is willing to go to bat for you. Although companies in the tech industry make more effort to have "meritocratic" (in fact random, there's nothing meritocratic about trying to guess someone's project management ability using eight hours of talking to people they've never met before, spread out over days) I see this being eroded over time as everyone pulls together in our low-interest-rate where's-the-recession, it's-coming-any-day-now environment. Although hiring managers might disagree on whose friends among them should be hired, they will all silently agree that the hiring system needs to only hire friends of somebody. That's what drives the evolution of corporate process in an inexorable slide towards the equilibrium most industries have already reached, one where consultants are brought in to cover the holes left by bringing in old friends.

I think the interchangeable parts era of tech work is nearly over and we're heading into something that will look more like highly paid roles in other industries. This could do a lot for gender equality[0], or maybe destroy it[1].

[0] Discrimination can work its way into randomized panel type scenarios because biases tend to show up in averages of first impressions more than they do in long-term relationships. That's why they use an "implicit bias test" that involves flashing pictures at you, and why the "I have female friends," argument is not taken seriously by anybody. What psychologists are telling us is that discrimination is maximized in the snap judgement scenarios posed by modern hiring processes.

[1] A network of long-term professional relationships that can't be unseated by anyone that isn't taken on as an apprentice literally describes the patriarchy.
Peter Lynch’s mantra is to not bother with bonds, and his arguments are compelling enough for me to only stick with low-expense-ratio index funds.
> your take home exam is a short essay on what you think the mortgage interest tax deduction (started in 1913) did to household debt

If what you describe holds true for mortgage debt, then we would expect the US to be in a uniquely bad position as a lot of other western countries do not have such tax benefits. But if anything, the real estate market in the US is more affordable, compared to the average salary, than in other western countries.
Housing would depreciate too if we didn't have artificial scarcity policies designed to make it an investment. Saying that housing should be an investment because we've designed it to be an investment is circular reasoning.

Re #2: it's obvious that most people aren't the most objective when it comes to their offspring. That's why we should have policies that discourage overallocating resources to an unqualified child of a rich parent.

Finally, "personal property" is a construct of law. Something is yours because society has decided it's yours. If the laws change, and if you can't physically defend your property, then it's not really yours any more, is it?

That's a fantastically entirely subjective opinion.
I’ve never worked for a company whose 401k default was an index fund. I probably never will. Best-case it was a target retirement fund, worst case I think it was some bullshit little proprietary fund that had a high expense ratio.

I find it hard to believe that there are no products out there trying to fill the 'early-Facebook-like social network' niche. People are discovering that a true social network, between actual people in the physical world, is not a scalable thing...and it should not be. On top of that, these same products trying to create social networks eventually run into a monetization problem.

Those are not big secrets. You can find history textbooks which explain how to become a dictator and order your minions to commit genocide. You can find plenty of recipes online which explain how to manufacture chemical weapons. In particular the original chemical weapon chlorine gas is rather trivial to create.

And yet genocide and use of chemical weapons are still fairly rare. Most people choose not to do those things, and there are a number of practical obstacles. Knowledge or lack thereof isn't the issue.
All the feedbacks are so useful. I'll repost with the changes ;)
Yes, I served in the Marine Corps after joining at 23. It was shocking how little freedom enlisted folks have, even after basic training and technical schools. I had lived on my own since I was a teenager, and all that independence was stripped away for the entire enlistment. Not even for any particularly good or useful reason, just so officers wouldn’t look bad if someone got in trouble.

I could not even fathom making that choice now at 38. That would be insane. You might as well volunteer to go to prison.

Again, there’s not even a hypothetical benefit to completely stripping freedom away from grown men. It just makes no sense—-intelligent people won’t serve if they have to put up with that nonsense.
A lot of videogames have you learning antiknowledge, but at the same time very useful meta skills. Build orders in Starcraft won't help you in your office job, but a habit of working out complicated tradeoffs, feeling out your opponent and having a feel of un-intuitive consequences will.

> Otherwise engineers are incentivized to make their code as configurable, modifiable, and extendable, as possible, regardless of cost or business need. Not to mention all the additional time trying to figure out "canonical" data models that will "future-proof" the applications interfaces.

I've never understood this, maybe I'm just a bad engineer. I mean, it sucks having to pivot, but all those configurable and extendable pieces take hours trying to get the design right. And you only end up using ~1% of them, and then something you didn't foresee happens as well. I always end up spending months of my life saving days doing the change-overs.

And that's before we get into the problems with onboarding a new engineer (or being the one onboarded) into the kind of hellscape that the overly configurable application turns into.
> or a vague suspicion

I see the people who caused the crisis walking around freely having paid no price for their actions whatsoever. There's nothing "vague" about my suspicion. The government has a responsibility to maintain confidence in markets. They utterly failed in my view so myself and anyone else holding this suspicion are completely correct to do so.

I also get the feeling that insiders front run the market, stealing gains from us, I also get the feeling that most of the volume in the market is driven by people who are not "in it" with me to "earn a retirement" but are instead in a mad dash to grab every lose cent and percentage point on a transaction fee that they can get their hands on.

Uncritically moving the average American over to a 401k was never a smart move as this entire sordid disaster was an obvious outcome given the lax regulatory environment in which the decision was made.
Legally they can't use your data without your consent and that data must be able to be deleted by your demand. So for GenAI to use personal information is bad and they should change its design. I advise they obfuscate the data to not contain sensitive information if they are intending to create AI around such data. Identifiable information is not a good thing.

GDPR and many other laws are still applicable to what GenAI is.

Many websites actually do this. It significantly weakens the defense against the forwarding problem because people will blindly click submit. But IMO it's an acceptable compromise for anything not business-critical.

Some people have come up with a trick to hide the unsubscribe link with CSS when it is inside a <blockquote> tag, as in a forwarded email. It doesn't work reliably, though. HTML email is still stuck in the 90s, it's impossible to do anything fancy inside of it. Much easier to send the user to a real web page for an actual transaction.

Dürer made some choices that should appeal to entrepreneurs:
he was perhaps the first artist to explicitly sign his work,
and did it with with his own brand, the stylized A/D. He also
chose to work in printmaking, thus being able to readily
reproduce his works more rapidly than any painter. His work
is wonderful, but too many art commenters focus only on the art,
and miss his commercial innovations.
> First thing the author started in Calabasas, which is on the edge of Los Angeles County and a significant distance from the City of Los Angeles.

This is wrong. The city of Los Angeles is right up next to Calabassas. Most of the San Fernando Valley is actually the city of Los Angeles, regardless of what people put on their postal address.

For example, Woodland Hills is part of the city of Los Angeles.

Ask HN: How to securely load API key in JavaScript?
I'm trying to implement Place Autocomplete in my project. Google provides the following snippet to load the library

<script async
src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=YOUR_API_KEY&libraries=places&callback=initMap">
</script>

I know that I can .gitignore .env files and pass the API KEY as an env variable. I can also restrict the API KEY to accept requests from my referrer domain. I think even if I place my API KEY in .env files users can inspect element and see the key. I was wondering if it is possible to spoof a referrer and use my API KEY. I am currently making an api call to my backend server which relays the result to the front end but that adds unnecessary latency. Hence, if possible I would like to use the Google snippet. What are industry standard practices of loading the API KEY securely in Javascript?

I think Bill Watterson probably has a pretty hefty cultural cache as well although he's as reclusive as they get.
It's a pretty common issue. If you have 2-3 services, it's pretty easy to manage. And if you have 1000, you likely have the infra to manage them and get the full benefit.

But if you have 20 engineers and 60 services, you're likely in a world of pain. That's not microservices, it's distributed monolith and it's the one model that doesn't work (but everyone seems to do)
What we make available is:

--

(A) the dataset after pre-processing the raw CommonCrawl data (e.g., text extraction and language identification) and some minimal filtering; and

(B) for each document in (A), we also pre-computed 40+ of "features" (we call the "quality annotations") you can use to further filter it or deduplicate it. For example, one such feature is "how similar this document is to Wikipedia".

--

(A) is around 30T tokens, but you might want to use features in (B) to further filter/dedup it down, e.g., to 5T. For example, if in your application documents similar to Wikipedia are the most helpful documents, you can take the top documents with the highest score for the feature "how similar this document is to Wikipedia". Of course, the really interesting case happens when you consider a larger subset of these features (or maybe even automatically learn what the best way of filtering it is).

Our goal is to make this as flexible as possible such that you can fit this into your own application. What we have released is both (A) and (B)

If you have any questions, please let us know! Thanks for your interests, have fun with the data!
While that may be true, it's not really an apples to apple comparison.

The m2 Mac Studio right now at $2400 for the 64gb model is cheaper than most anything new if you want 64gb unified pool of gpu memory other than the $2000 Nvidia 64gb Jetson AGX Orin which is much slower.

A threadripper based system is physically freaking large, and loud, and incredibly vram constrained. It of course is going to absolutely destroy the Mac Studio in most situations because it's better than the Mac Studio in most metrics, but honestly I'm very excited by the prospect of future Macs with gobs of memory, although I'm concerned at how Apple isn't generationally improving memory bandwidth.
No dongle will help with only one native external monitor.
It is around 100TB (84 CommonCrawl dumps, roughly 1TB per dump)
Possibly this, but also consider Apple is playing major catch up with generative AI. I could see avoiding mention just to keep it a bit further from the mind of reviewers.
Despite notorious reputation about how they stuck with cash, I'm 95% fine with cashless payment in Japan 2023. I still need cash for some govt service like renewing license, boutique ramen shops, some small restaurants, coin parkings, and cheap hair salon. Though there are many people still use cash for unknown reason.
Exactly. Just like how the British people just recently decided that privacy and encryption aren't "fair and just." After all, would a policymaker ever go against the desires of the voters?

You're making a massive assumption that this somehow equates to voters/the people.

The newer 16 inch MacBook Pros are half a pound heavier than the Intel one.
True, I used a vanilla wysiwyg editor integrated via hooks.

To be clear, I heartily endorse LiveView. Not using it now due to pretty heavy chrome extension needs, but it was solid. It's just rough in the "just works JS integrations" department. I'd argue you have to be really good at JS to handle any heavier library integrations.
The promise of the first version of WinCE were so great as it was a complete 32 bit operating system written from scratch without any legacy issues, but the slowness of the machines, even as they could run on a pair of AA batteries, lack of software library and wireless infrared communications never really taking off for internet usage hampered the machines. Also, the 5 different CPU architectures became an issue for the touch screen devices before ARM processors became the norm.

My favorite non ARM device was the wonderfully customizable Be-300 which had a few dedicated websites to hacking it. As a reminder all of these devices wince mainline operating systems came with handwriting recognition built in from the same people who built the software recognition for the Apple Newton.
If you define cross product through minors, then you can expand it to any dimension, just with the different number of arguments, n-1 for R^n, 1 in R^2: [{x,y},] = {y,-x} for example. 3 in R^4, etc. Going to have the same properties as R^3 wrt to linearity and anticommutativity.
