I'm sorry, I was a bit unclear. Instead of:

I should have said "for the geographical area". You need to compare yields in similar climates and soils.
What's bad about the CAN bus?
That kind of decoding is a bit different though. For one, the tokenization process makes encodings difficult to handle (unless it’s trained on a lot of pairs).

This would be more akin to asking ChatGPT to help build a black box parser for base64, not asking it to decode it itself.
I would hope that is the case but I can't imagine it happening
I agree completely that each any should be justified. That's why I'm against sprinkling it to silence errors. noImplicitAny with each manual any clearly justified is the desired end state of the migration.

Then nobody will have free shit to absorb. Not young aspiring authors, and not AI models.

It's not theft when a human author reads the work of another author. And it's not theft when a model reads the work of another author. It's exactly the same.

> At that point it seems like robotics could be doing all this better.

Robots still aren't at the same amount of dexterity that humans can achieve, at least not in a price-competitive way.

Also, robots don't have the "automated QA" built-in that a human has - a robot will keep on placing screws and not notice something like a scratch or other imperfection, while a human can recognize this and yeet the partial assembly towards rework or recycling.
My experience of Big Co is that you have both a manager (HR and business sense) and a supervising/lead engineer (SDE 3) for a product.

I don’t think I explained that well — but a 3:3:1 to 5:5:1 SDE 1:2:3 mix is fairly standard across industry. (Again, with an SDM doing the managing.)

I used the word “supervising” because I wanted to distinguish that technical leadership from managing, but didn’t explain enough. Sorry for the confusion.
Why does a control have to be on a screen to support voice commands? Most buttons and knobs are just digital inputs into the same infotainment system in current cars. If the knob or slider is stateful, there are still mechanized versions that can be controlled by software. I had a Kenwood receiver in the 90s that would mechanically turn the knob when I adjusted the volume from the remote and I know Yamaha had a similar feature around the same time. Studio mixing boards (for sound and light) have had software controlled sliders for decades as well. If a $200 stereo can include a servo coupled volume knob, a $30k+ car should have no issue.

My Kia has awful rear control where you push a physical button to bring up an ok screen interface that doesn’t react to any physical buttons. Other models have the same physical interface (same buttons, same screen), but allow adjusting the on screen settings with physical buttons. I usually have a lot of kids in the back, and find having to muck with an awful on screen interface (not because it’s on screen, but because they require multiple steps to do things I should just be able to tap on) to be a safety issue.
That doesn't seem needed at all. Prompting it with "extract contact email address from the following post. It might be obfuscated and require some puzzling." immediately solves it, with much shorter output.

Ask HN: Non-macOS Target Disk Mode
First, does anyone know if TDM is implemented in hardware as well as the boot ROM in MBPs, or just the boot ROM?

Second, does anyone known of any existing or planned implementations of this outside of the Apple ecosystem?

It seems like an immensely useful feature if you work with multiple laptops but want to use the hardware on your desktop computer.
I also really like this paradigm. It’s just that in old crusty null-terminated C style this is really awkward because the input data must be copied or modified. But it’s not an issue when using slices (length and pointer). Unfortunately most of the C standard library and many operating system APIs expect that.

I’ve seen this referred to as a pull parser in a Rust library? (https://github.com/raphlinus/pulldown-cmark)
No, it's worse. It's *making* you vulnerable to those actors and possibly more.
I'm not sure the legal system is ready for charging for crypto "theft". What if the unimaginable happens and there's a private key collision that results in two owners ... If they both use the account without noticing the other but one eventually closes the account, is that still theft?

It's pretty clear when an account or computer is hacked and yet neither razz or hubby were charged with theft ... Hubby essentially got convicted of tax evasion like a '30s gangster.

I’m genuinely surprised this is the case, sounds like either budget constraint or bad engineering. Been a MechE for about a decade and worked on a span of critical applications. Either an off the shelf fully package motor from Parker or Schneider electric or a custom setup with a motor, high precision quadrature with harmonic drive run for years. Of course you need some safety code like encoder checks (baked into the off the shelf ones) but the machines I worked on run for years and throughput in the thousands without anything failing. Also worked on industrial gantries. We’ve built delta packaging robots with sub second throughput and those motors never go out of sync after commissioning.

From https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38150735, it’s very energy intensive.

Boules are very storable, so it’s the financials of pausing production and storing materials until the price (or new tech) makes it profitable. Not the most socially responsible thing to do in decarbonisation times, but done with aluminium and other energy intensive storables all the time.
You're assuming that shooting day-for-night means using no additional lighting, which would be an incorrect assumption. You just need big lights to overpower the sun which isn't nearly as hard as it might sound at first. They do it all the time.
To add to your point: try asking ChatGPT to do basic arithmetic on numbers it hasn't seen before. You'll see just how good it is at computation.

Oracle requires multifactor authentication at cloud sign-in
Only problem of software implementations is that they are reliant on the strength of the user-supplied passphrase, so there's a inverse correlation between user experience (ease of typing the passphrase) and security (easy passphrases are also easy to bruteforce).

A TPM provides hardware-backed bruteforce protection which means even an easy passphrase can be made secure as the number of attempts is rate-limited by the TPM (to a level much slower than even the hardest hashes).
That’s much faster, and I use that too, yes.

F# is so good, such a shame so few companies use it. I have to touch C# and it's always a little bit painful after a few weeks of F# work.
I visited Amsterdam recently and instantly noticed something weird about the road layouts there. I did some research - they differentiate between streets (meant for short distances, or getting to a local destination) and roads (meant for long distance travel - or driving past a location). As a visitor, it seems brilliant. And it makes way more sense than what a lot of roads look like here - with cyclists trying to fit in with high speed traffic.

Novel approaches to urban planning seems like an obvious thing to put in to urban planning games. What a missed opportunity.
This is also true of fiat currencies and capitalism in general.
> The protocol should prioritize donors with high bandwidth over vast storage space.

If you're doing this in bittorrent then you might want a client that's configured to optimize for a different goal than most torrent clients.

Potential goals, somewhat conflicting:

A) keep data with a low mirroring degree available. either this needs to be centrally coordinated or some sort of randomized algorithm where clients pick underseeded torrents but not everyone picks the same

B) bandwidth matching. to not consume more resources than are provided a client maybe should only download 1 piece of data for every N times it uploaded any piece. This is much less greedy than what you'd have in a normal torrent client but ensures that caches themselves don't take up much bandwidth compared to users who actually want to download something. Otherwise a misconfigured cache (e.g. behind NAT) could accidentally always download data without ever giving much back.
In the scenario of headless, if I’m not missing something this only prevents drives from walking off. If the whole machine walks off you are in just as much trouble as not being encrypted at all if you don’t really trust your OS permissions systems?
My car's software has always had a problem where the power steering turns off suddenly while driving, occasionally. It then comes back by itself after 2-3 days. Mechanics just said there was no physical fault that they could fix, so I had to live with it until I had that car.

It was dangerous but I could still steer, and I'd feel when the pump was going off.

This would be even worse.
...There's sexual torture content in Blindsight? Or in his short stories? Having read several of them, I really don't remember anything like that. Can you note some examples?
I used to drive a cargo van at work that had a knob installed. I think it was the prolonged version of Renault Master, or something similar. It was actually great to have in that vehicle. The steering wheel was a lot more horizontal than in a normal car and much bigger. You wouldn’t use the knob at speed, but it was pretty indispensable when manoeuvring in tight places.
That's a must watch. Adam Curtis' work is brilliant.
A better test for someone using CSS would be activities that CSS is typically used for. Have them make a complex layout that is responsive at multiple display sizes, or have them architect a set of reusable classes for a design library or something. You may think that this sort of cleverness is generalizable: that someone who would come up with this solution would also be good at laying out web components. But there is no relationship between this (very neat) trick and CSS skills, so it would be a terrible test to give people.
This seems to me a much more moral way of doing things. Actually making the stuff is what's important.
could you post some examples? The only implementations I remember were quite hard to setup, buggy, and/or user-unfriendly UIs.

PromptGPT Meta Prompt for ChatGPT
The most effective way I've found to prompt GPT-4 is to ask it to create the optimal prompt for you. Try this meta prompt to help craft your prompts:

--

I create separate conversation threads for each expert persona of GPT. You are PromptGPT. You are a prompt engineer expert for large language models. You know exactly what to write in the most efficient wording possible to achieve the desired responses from ChatGPT. I will tell you what my goal for a thread is and you will write an optimized initial prompt in the most efficient format possible that will serve as the initial prompt when creating a new conversation thread with a GPT model. You will define the expert persona, the parameters or rules of the responses, you should also provide any other information that a GPT thread may need to understand exactly what it needs to do to give me the most accurate answers depending on my goal with that particular thread and the tone of voice, within the prompt you provide.

Are you ready or is there any other information you need to perform this job to your best ability

There must be a law about how long it takes in a discussion about any aspect of cars before light rail or walkable cities is mentioned.
So, is this an issue of credit, a recognition thing? Or more an issue of just sharing with the “right” people?

I share what I do freely. If someone integrates that trivia and shares it with someone else, so much the better. I offer a fractional shoulder to stand on. Getting hovered up into an AI that then goes on to help someone else isn’t much different than having something random posted on the internet that solves someone else’s stumbling block.

But that’s just me.
48V was developed for that purpose. For example stage microphones can be powered by 48 V phantom power. Say if there are broken cables or rain, it's not nice to be shocked but it's not dangerous.

Many mild hybrid cars use a 48V system for the motor. It's probably going to get more common over time.
Nothing better for user retention than stripping away a perk from the userbase that gave them their money early on.

My bet: They will toss it in a closet, but it will not be discovered in 1000 years. It will be gone before then. If you want future generations to see your photos, print them out. People will have too much else to worry about than decrypt old storage media.
The majority of people don't want to type a long passphrase every boot (or would pick a trivially-bruteforceable one) and FDE-backed TPM (even if vulnerable to state-sponsored attacks) is better than what it would otherwise be which is no FDE at all.

Your mental model is wrong. Cops aren’t there to maximize revenue or enforce the law.

Multiple police officers in multiple towns in the US have told me they can’t write tickets for every traffic violation they see or the locals would turn against the police.

They are there to tax the most egregious offenders. It would be trivial for police officers to simply wait outside bars at 01:50 and breathalyze people every night driving home drunk, but they don’t. They’d be giving out a DUI every single night if they did that.
We can already see this starting to happen today. It's not going to be the amazing future techies on here imagine, in reality it looks quite bleak.

We also have a lot of things made of wood. They can last 100s of years if well taken care of.

It’s inevitable that nature learns to break down plastic, just like it did with wood (there was a long period where trees didn’t biodegrade). I think it’s a good thing if we help accelerate that. It’s the only way to make sure microplastic pollution doesn’t become an increasingly large problem.

Yeah, we should reduce the amount of plastic that ends up in nature to begin with. But getting to 0% is impossible. And plastics are too useful to not use them at all. The impact on nature would be worse, since the replacements often use more resources.
I'll probably wait and see on this. Toyota's reputation for software in these automation systems is poor, after poorly developed and tested electronic throttle controls resulted in deaths and recalls. The software suffered from stack overflow and used recursion (a no-no in any embedded software, especially life- or mission-critical). Also found in analysis: buffer overflow, unsafe casting, race conditions. The code was found to have 11,000 global variables. Toyota had nominally adopted MISRA-C [2] coding guidelines, but the source code had 80,000+ violations.

What can be worse than the major ISPs in the US? They offer last decades technology (cable) at extremely high prices (compared to other western countries), have frequent outages, questionable business practices (have you gotten your internet security package surcharge yet?) and generally make you want to move somewhere where Fiber is available. I have no doubt that they would want to make me pay even more money for being able to watch Netflix in 4k (vs their cable TV offering) if they legally could.

> “Json" and "Go" seem antithetical in the same sentence as "high performance" to me

Absolute highest performance is rarely the highest priority in designing a system.

Of course we could design a hyper-optimized, application specific payload format and code the deserializer in assembly and the performance would be great, but it wouldn’t be useful outside of very specific circumstances.

In most real world projects, performance of Go and JSON is fine and allow for rapid development, easy implementation, and flexibility if anything changes.

I don’t think it’s valid to criticize someone for optimizing within their use case.

> I feel like it should deserve a mention of what the stack is, otherwise there is no reference point.

The article clearly mentions that this is a GopherCon talk in the header. It was posted on Dave Cheney’s website, a well-known Go figure.

It’s clearly in the context of Go web services, so I don’t understand your criticisms. The context is clear from the article.

The very first line of the article explains the context:

> This talk is a case study of designing an efficient Go package.
It really depends on the motor (stepper, closed loop BLDC...). It can help in some configuration but with bigger motors, there is a lot of inductance and EMI and it is very hard to drive them from the same wires. You usually have one supply and one driver per motor. As least that was my understanding from my software job point of view.
At least the embedded devices I work on don’t expose any (reasonable) method to persuade them to do anything other than their intended job, so sure, steal the device if you like. With enough effort you can probably turn it into a general purpose computer, but you’re not getting any of the secrets off it.
