> From my understanding that means that now Rust can be used for the development of security critical software in automotive.

What about other safety critical domains such as aerospace, medical, railways, machinery, process control etc? It seems like each of these has its own bespoke standards, so Ferrous will need to seek certification for these separately?
One time around 2012 I was buying a laptop for someone who needed a Windows machine. Knowing the poor build quality of various low end options we decided to splurge and get a top of the line Dell model with a nicer magnesium case etc. with a price tag close to $2k. We unboxed it, powered it on, and were greeted by a loud grating noise that went away if you flexed the case.

Returned it immediately been using Apple laptops ever since.
It’s exactly the same models as OpenAI.
If you don't know about it and are about to try this for the first time, it can be a "wtf" moment, yes :) But that's how you learn isn't it
Well, do they have any alternative to high density?
I think you misread my intent. I was saying it could be personality of cynicism (which is fine) and nothing to do with the job.
Manufacturers and especially dealers are having to be pushed into EVs.
Same here. If I can't walk to things I want to do and people I want to see, I feel like a prisoner.
Steam's statistics are very questionable. They routinely "lose" hours of playtime from games in my library and syncing savegames just doesn't work half the time.
I think it's more about the political system, first past the post is looking archaic now. Not that proportional representation solves every problem but it would be a giant leap in the right direction.
I haven't really kept up with the updates, but I've noticed 4's in-conversation memory seems worse lately.

Adherence is all about psychology! Although what works for one person might not work for another as well; if time restricted eating or calorie counting doesn’t work for you, try a different strategy.

My target right now is 1600 kcal & 150g protein, and my usual meal plan is a 300kcal protein frappe coffee thing in the morning, a lunch around 450kcal like gumbo, a 550kcal dinner like apricot glazed salmon w/ couscous, and then ~300kcal of Ben & Jerrie’s ice cream for dessert. For me adherence is super easy because those are all foods I love to eat, I’m full all day so I never want to snack, and I’m actually eating more dessert than before this diet because I don’t feel guilty about it anymore (yay decadence).

My girlfriend tried the same plan, but something about just knowing about the budget makes her feel totally trapped and she ends up binge eating snacks almost out of “revenge” after a few days. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I wanted to argue just break the NDA and leak the art. (Anonymously, say your Dropbox was hacked, unlikely action will be taken against you.)

I wanted to argue that art leaks are great for the community, even if they harm the company. But I remember reading how the HL2 beta leak tanked morale at VALVE, and arguably if the team's morale is hurt, that ultimately hurts the community too.

Still at some point the culture there shifted and people who had been working on Episode 3 released their art, storyline etc (though some later regretted it).
Tool Release: Magisk Module – Conscrypt Trust User Certs
I've implemented alternate embeddings in SlothAI using Instructor, which is running an early preview at https://ai.featurebase.com/. Currently working on the landing page, which I'm doing manually because ChatGPT is down.

The plan is to add Llama 2 completions to the processors, which would include dictionary completion (keyterm/sentiment/etc), chat completion, code completion, for reasons exactly like what we're discussing.

Here's the code for the Instructor embeddings: https://github.com/FeatureBaseDB/Laminoid/blob/main/sloth/sl...

To do Instructor embeddings, do the imports then reference the embed() function. It goes without saying that these vectors can't be mixed with other types of vectors, so you would have to reindex your data to make them compatible.

Political movements not garnering support from mainstream or left wing media... When you get to pick which sources you use you get to pick which views you will present...
My (admittedly personal & anecdotal) impression of Wikipedia is that the objectivity of the content highly depends on the subject - particularly anything that touches on more recent historical events and public/political figures continues to be of the debatable objectivity (at least on the subjects that I'm familiar with enough to notice the problem).
Aren't you years behind on security updates on that model though?
I guess if I'm just using text, maps, and phone calls, I wouldn't care...

I kinda like this strategy
Absolutely, this is what I said when chat control was first proposed; it will only serve to make criminals out of ordinary people.

And even worse, I foresee not only a black market of app distribution without backdoors, but also a lot of young people will prefer these apps because young people are going to be young people online. And if they know what it means to communicate safely I'm sure they will prefer it over anything else.
Is there data out there showing that Macs with 8GB are hitting swap in the manner you describe? That’s a major assumption of your comment. (Even if this is happening, it should be noted that modern SSDs can be slammed pretty hard with writes and still last a very long time)

The memory on Apple’s systems is installed physically closer to the chip than any modular PC. I assume this is also a factor?

If the memory can more quickly and efficiently get data in and out of the processor, that means it can be released faster as well.

I’m not assuming that Apple’s memory architecture is faster than a typical PC equipped with DDR5 but I would be interested to see some kind of deep dive in this area because on the surface it seems like there are major hardware differences and a more customized platform on the Apple side.

Another example where this same concept comes into play is game consoles. It’s well understood that game consoles require less total RAM for playing the same game because the hardware isn’t general purpose, it’s customized and optimized for game-specific performance with a low hardware cost and customized software.
Good news: you can now, I just installed it and it was easy and fun. https://github.com/PaulWieland/ratgdo

But it is external to the device, you're right :) And for some crazy reason this guy is getting a lot of orders recently ;)
One of the worst things about new development in post-socialist urban areas (high density vertical) are lack of public and green spaces in neighbourhoods.
No, the word socialism is correct, it describes pretty much what you call "distributed ownership", although a condition should be it's also democratic. I don't see why to avoid a well-defined term because of a connotation, that's a receiver's and not a sender's problem.

Regarding democracy, this kind of voting (although it's unequal) already exists with publicly traded companies. Interestingly, nobody is worried where billionaires will find the time or interest to vote in many companies they own; it's always the common people being the problem.
Games weren't getting individual custom CPUs or anything that exotic, but from roughly 1980-2000 the industry was still riding the peak of Moore's Law, where chips were getting faster and cheaper seemingly every day, and arcade developers were constantly trying to leapfrog each other. Each game system really only needed to run a single game, so there was no real barrier to having unique boards per game -- if a particular game needed a few extra RAM chips, or the CPU maybe needed a higher clock, there wasn't much barrier to that.

NOTE: System16 is a treasure trove of information in general, but it looks like their main landing page at https://www.system16.com has some kind of hijack ad situation going on? The links below seem unaffected.

Konami was kind of the poster child for bespoke hardware; they're famous/infamous for seemingly every single game having some kind of weirdo bespoke hardware iteration: https://www.system16.com/museum.php?id=5

Sega had a more typical approach. They would typically have a minimum of several games per arcade system, and sometimes dozens: https://www.system16.com/museum.php?id=1

But, even then, there are lots of variations to the rule. Taito operated more or less like Sega, but (to choose one at random) you might see things like this where one game on this particular board (Cadash) was equipped with a faster CPU than the others: https://www.system16.com/hardware.php?id=652

There are some fun exceptions to what I've written though: truly one-off hardware.

Namco's Thunder Ceptor, with its mode7-ish backgrounds... in 1986!
https://www.system16.com/hardware.php?id=523

Gaplus/Galaga3 had its own board for some reason: https://www.system16.com/hardware.php?id=518

Pole Position I and II (essentially the same game) had its own hardware: https://www.system16.com/hardware.php?id=515

I think a lot of Midway's late-80s/early-90s boards (let's say, NARC through MK) tended to evolve from game to game.
Yes, huge brands have problems, but they are at least incentivized to solve them, whereas some no-name company has no such incentive because they have absolutely nothing to lose. And suing Samsung for damages means you are at least sure there is something worth suing.
Humans and AIs both evolve as the result of some iterations dying. In both cases, we tacitly erase the ones who don't make it (by framing the discussion around the successful, alive ones). The difference is that humans have had a broader training set.
The Pro iPhones are in a different league. I can't go back now.
You just spent much more than $1 of your time arguing against spending a dollar. You would never spend 25 cents to read an article, don't fool yourself. If that was an option, you'd invent another reason not to pay. Oh, I need to fold my laundry, no time to read this article.
I don’t disagree. Sorry I feel people have misread a lot more malice into my comment than I intended.

I felt sympathy for the OP not superiority.
Larry David isn't giving me financial advice. Larry David is selling his image / voice / comedic talents / acting abilities to FTX. Just like a model or singer or athlete is just selling their image to coke. It makes no sense to go after them
Bank transfers take days to complete because of liquidity management, not due to IT system delays. When you do a big enough transfer, the bank has to have a balance with the central bank that can be moved to the target bank's CB account, but, your bank doesn't actually have the money you deposited. It's out on loan instead. So the bank has to go into the market and sell some assets to raise that money. It may not be possible to do this immediately, and even if it is, they want to be able to time their sales to reduce capital inefficiencies.

This is also why they're often so very expensive. That $25 or whatever isn't being spent on the cost of updating the ledger. It's the cost the bank incurs because of the need to sell assets (loans) before they intended to.
The point is, OpenAI spent a lot of money on training on all these copyrighted materials ordinary individuals/companies don't have access to, so replicating their effort would mean that you either 1) spend a ridiculous amount of money, 2) use Library Genesis (and still pay millions for GPU usage). So we have very little choice now. Open Source LLMs might be getting close to ChatGPT3 (opinions vary), but OpenAI is still far ahead.
Claiming things to be true that had no evidence is not the same thing as making decisions with partial information.

The mRNA shots were not tested at all for transmissibility yet we were told they prevented transmission.

Thank goodness some people have a memory longer than 2 weeks.
You should probably read that EULA that none of us read. We don't own their service. Never have. Downvotes don't make it less true.
If you are regularly updating your refrigerator's firmware or your refrigerator's firmware relies on an Internet connection to function, then I am very sorry to say this but you have lost control of your life :)
I live in northern ireland in an actual house and the walls are thin enough I could dip my bread into my neighbours' soup.

It is the number one reason I could never see myself living in an apartment, I'm very sensitive to noise and I get disproportionately angry at even low levels of unwanted noise. I'd be too worried about noise from neighbours.
This is incredibly difficult, valuable work that so few organizations dare to do. Often the answers are unpopular.
I think for a lot of people (me included), the primary advantage is in ease of measurement.

It's hard to count calories accurately.

It's very easy to look at the clock and determine if it's between 1300-1900 hours
That is quite heavy.

It makes you wonder if the intermittent fasting made the participants more aware of when they were actually hungry vs eating mainly out of habit/boredom/coping mechanism.
No, but the firmware runs locally, instead of in someone else's cloud, so an outage in their cloud cannot take down my fridge.

Sam Bankman-Fried and the People Who Gave Up Their Money for Nothing
I’m recently in the market for a garage door opener I can automate (specifically close automatically after X time open) - does anyone have recommendations or is ratgdo the way to go?

Also I understand one of the reasons this isn’t a standard offering is because garage openers have a hard time not crushing things? Kind of surprised me.

We want smaller cheaper phones!

Paying $1-2k for a tablet sized phone is painful in the hands and on the wallet.
I think that situation exists now, which is the essential root of the problem.

It's too expensive and too unlikely to succeed, but I could sue Chamberlain now arguing that they have breached an implied contract and that the remedy I seek is for them to open-source their code.
More dense construction in urban areas will probably help make single family homes affordable for those who want them.

I imagine people who own single family homes in nice suburbs are pretty happy about it, especially if they bought it when prices were half of what they are currently and are paying <3% interest.
> No it doesn't REMOVE the Linux's UEFI partition or files on the drive, but it sets itself to #1 in your UEFI boot list

So it does what is expected from any boot loader. Installing grub does the same.

> And since their installer does not add other OSes to the Windows bootloader automatically

Which is fine; you should not chainload windows from grub either. Use ntldr for booting windows.

> you have to either change your UEFI settings

Exactly, you can change the default boot entry in your UEFI settings.

Or after POST, press a button on your keyboard for one-off boot change.

So what was the complain, again? Some people not using UEFI boot manager in a way it is supposed to be used?
Truly the love of money is the root of all evil...
I upgraded my P20 pro to a Samsung S20FE, and it felt like a downgrade. My wife took over my P20pro, and she's still rocking it, more than 5 years later. The screen is cracked in a corner, but the phone trucks along like nobody's business.

That was a seriously underrated and good phone. I'm 2 years on my Samsung and I hate it so much.
We've engineered societies that no longer value freedom as they consider it a nebulous concept that is less important than some in-group momentary righteousness. Even free speech is back on the table in the current zeitgeist, which is insane.
It's hard to emphasize how different the mindset of the late 2000s Internet is to nowadays.

APIs were more readily available and open. Mashups were usually encouraged, so long as you didn't generate undue stress.

Nowadays its a million tiny business silos hoarding tediously-obscure-but-still-sometimes-useful data. And you have to prove that what you want to do with the API doesn't infringe on their ability to capitalize on it better.

The irony is that all the data is way more easily accessible from a technical POV now due to the prevalence of SPAs and REST, but the legal environment is significantly more dangerous.
I can confirm this. I am from Spain and I have lived in a few cities all around the country and the lack of soundproofing in every building is a common thing, regardless of town or area, it seems like all buildings from 1970 were built ignoring any sound proof.
Hamnarbetarförbundet has joined Transport, so now both the dockworkers union have joined
"we have never missed an estimate"

After 35+ years of software development, you are either lying, incompetent, or worked on exceedingly trivial software. Sorry to be harsh, but I can guarantee you that if you were given a significant software project, asked to estimate and then deliver, that the vast majority of the time your estimates would be wrong.
Can we though? That comment demonstrates very clearly that it wasn't as democratic as people are remembering.

You had a chance to make an inclusive internet, and you made an encyclopedia that was blind to the largest most significant art & cultural movement in generations. What are you going to do differently this time?
dolphin-2.2.1-mistral-7b on GPT4All is working flawlessly for me locally. Its so fast and accurate I'm stunned.
Another oft cited example is the McDonalds strike of '88 in Denmark.

I'm very proud of being part of this scandinavian society when it shows this kind of solidarity with workers. Workers are after all the majority of society.
> I use the myq app to open my garage door open regularly.

It used to ask me to provide a rating every time I opened the app. I eventually added a negative rating because it kept asking even after I had answered "Do not ask me".
Ask HN: What's the most interesting (non-AI) advancement in tech in 2023?
LLMs and AI in general have captured an outsized portion of our minds and of media reports this year, but surely there are other interesting and impactful things happening across the industry.

So, what does hn think is especially interesting from the past year? What went un- or undernoticed?
Ugh autocorrect changed suggest to Serguei but too late to edit my comment now.
Intermittent fasting that leads to weight loss is a form of calorie restriction.
Congrats on that!

My kid is too young for tech so far so I haven't fully dived into the issue yet, but one thing I've already done for him to start him off on the right foot is set up with a Proton email account on the family domain name.

It's great because family members have been sending notes for him to read when he grows up and we have been cc'ing him on baby pictures, medical records, and vital stats. And when you think about it, our email accounts are the foundations of our online identities, so it's kind of messed up that we normalize surveillance of our children's online activity from Day 1 by setting them up with inboxes from Google, etc. and you owe it to your kids to give them privacy and, eventually, agency.

I'll turn over the keys when he's old enough (of course I'll probably make a backup of things first)!
>Everyone can afford iphones

Sorry, but this just isn't true, loan or not.
Not just a "you" problem. I have to routinely reset my youtube history (I don't have time to prune it) to avoid stale recommendation. I have few interests, but every once in a while, I'm on a research spree or just want some new vibes, then my home view is ruined.

If they are not getting rid of the algorithm, it would make sense to let me manage the keywords that are driving it.
Can we please stop posting links that require a subscription?
Quite right, there are lots of good things to like on Apple hardware and NeXTSTEP heritage, at least for me, however the whole "you're holding it wrong" narrative that pops up from time to time on various matters, it certainly isn't one.
On the one hand, sure, new things take time, but they also benefit from all past developments, and thus compounding effects can speed things along drastically. AI infrastructure problem are cloud infrastructure problems. Expecting it to go as if we were back on square one is a bit pessimistic.
A quote I read today that reminds me of this:

‘Don't be distracted by the myth that “every little [bit] helps.” If everyone does a little, we'll achieve only a little. We must do a lot. What's required are big changes in demand and in supply’ --David MacKay
Try OsmAnd, it's great!
Even if that doesn't include the players who never even installed the game, there's a still a fat tail of players who bought it on a sale, tried it for an hour and weren't interested enough to continue because there are just so many other options. Things used to be very different back in the era of cardboard boxes when most people didn't have an abundance of choice and impulse buying games was much less of a thing.
Let's say I'm writing Flask code all day, and I need help with various parts of my code. Can I do it today or not? With questions like, "How to add 'Log in with Google' to the login screen" etc.
It was much more diverse back then only if you were looking for or desiring that diversity. I was drawn to it for that reason, the foreign languages, the strangeness. I feel like the same people now who prefer homogenization of their internet are people who never experienced that diversity. Because they are people who don’t really like diversity, not in the literal sense. They like a certain type of diversity, which is how the internet got ruined.
I was going to say that we need to grab our tin foil hats, this can't be an coincidence :D
There are some games that encode an achievement basically for starting the story or finishing an early quest, so if those complimentary achievements aren't 100%, you could make that measurement
I watch a lot of American Football (NFL) on TV and I've seen a ton of iPhone 15 commercials. Not a single one talks about a new feature. The only thing I hear/see and retain is that it's made from "titanium". They don't say it's lighter, they don't say it's stronger or better in any way. Since America is an "iPhone country", maybe that's why? Just terrible marketing.
It's not that you would end up in jail (although granted, that level of fuck-uppery is possible), it's just that anyone flagged would go through hell with real-world consequences before everything is cleared up.
I too get 8 hours of sleep done in 4 hours every night.
Imagine if the Pope started spouting some completely insane nonsense, but did it ex cathedra. Are we to treat his ravings as fact since Catholicism holds that the Pope speaking ex cathedra is infallible? The editors wouldn't, and most of us wouldn't.

Gender ideology/wokeness/whatever you want to call it is in many senses religious, and certainly their claims of TWAW/TMAM are not factual: Our science and medicine come far short of being able to actually change anyone's sex. We can, through constant intervention, force the body to change a bit into one direction, but not much more.
This reminds us that, what if our databases are maintained using OpenAI's embeddings, and the API suddenly goes down? How do we find alternatives to match the already generated database?
I still have yet to give Dark Souls a try, I was always hesitant to try soul types games. But I wanna shout out Elden Ring for breaking that cycle for me. Truly amazing game.
