That is not true. Nothing Apple does say Samsung cannot repeat, heck these 2 specifically share quite a bit of hardware too, ie screens. In fact top of the line Samsung is more impressive to me, it manages to store whole chargeable pen in the body and is lighter than comparable Apple models.

There are much better sounding headphones/earplugs, ie Sennheiser.

Apple does fine products (and their share of fails), but their secret sauce is a mix of PR, timing, brilliant leadership, and tons of luck with ie that timing to market. Hardware quality is good, but that's true for literally everybody in the field and is definitely not the differentiating factor these days.
I’m on the 13 Pro Max and this year and last year I said, “I’ll get the new one if there’s a killer feature that I can’t live without,” and while USB-C could theoretically be that, as pathetic as that sounds, I can’t find any reason whatsoever so upgrade. I like the titanium color, but my phone hasn’t seen the light of day in years because of the case so even that doesn’t matter.

That USB-C though would be nice so I’d finally have only one cable needed.
It's not about being 'comfortable with density', it's about having a society where neighbours respect each other, behave decently, and keep noise/mess under control, don't keep setting the fire alarm off, etc.

The noise problem isn't limited to loud music and parties, just the noise of kids playing loudly and running around in communal areas can become infuriating to neighbours.

Even if you've got good neighbours, there's other downsides with flats - a lack of parking/EV charging, often nowhere to safely store a bicycle even. No space to install personal 'green tech' such as solar or a heat pump. No garage/shed to store tools/bikes/hobby equipment.
> as people outside think it is.

> don’t want to deal with learning new stuff on the job

I think this might be the big one. A few years ago I got small window into someone going from no programming experience to getting a job (completely self-directed, not through school or a bootcamp) and he thought he had to learn everything before getting the job. I had to reassure him that no, that's really not how it works in tech - even if you could learn all of ___ right now, there's stuff continually being added so you'll have to keep learning anyway. Basically that typically you'd get the basics down then learn new stuff as you needed it.

His previous experience mostly came from a mix of skilled and unskilled laborer jobs, where even the skilled laborer ones you could learn everything in like 6 months and from there onwards it's just refining skill (as he described it, at least).
I remember play a game years and years ago (cannot recall the game), you come out of a mountain cave halfway up turn left and then enter another cave. However i stopped and you got a view of a desert landscape (i remember it as awe inspiring, maybe breathtaking, but it was years ago so in reality it was probably pixelated), it looked like someone put a lot of effort into the view and wondered if anyone else stopped and looked or just kept going.

Point is, if i work on code, i refactor and refactor and try to make it perfect even though it already worked and wonder how many people working on games spent a ton of time on a scene in a game or background or sprite to get it perfect and no one pays attention. I have a friend who plays Super Mario Bros all the time just to beat it and has NEVER seen world 5, 6 or 7 because he always uses the warp zones (i am not implying those are breathtaking worlds, if they were he would be missing out).
I was gonna say that this is Bard's chance to shine, but it looks like Bard is also having an outage!
Ice cores are one of the data sources used in temperature reconstruction. From the linked page:

By measuring the ratios of different water isotopes in polar ice cores, we can determine how temperature in Antarctica and Greenland has changed in the past.

Ask HN: As a business, how do you authenticate yourself to your customers?
Hey HN,

When you have direct communications (via email, SMS, phone calls) with your customers about things that typically attract fraudulent impersonators (eg bank instructions, requesting sensitive PII), what is the best way to authenticate yourself as the real company besides the regular methods (eg email with spf & dkim or website) ?
Do your customers sometimes proactively request extra measures?

Thanks for your answers.
I track GitHub's trending page for Go, Rust, and occasionally Python projects. Limiting to these languages tends to yield the kinds of projects I'm interested in, just by the nature of the demographic that uses them. Sometimes I browse recent repo activity on Sourcehut too.
Defining a New NLP Playground
The recent explosion of performance of large language models (LLMs) has changed the field of Natural Language Processing (NLP) more abruptly and seismically than any other shift in the field's 80-year history. This has resulted in concerns that the field will become homogenized and resource-intensive. The new status quo has put many academic researchers, especially PhD students, at a disadvantage. This paper aims to define a new NLP playground by proposing 20+ PhD-dissertation-worthy research directions, covering theoretical analysis, new and challenging problems, learning paradigms, and interdisciplinary applications.
"It's nothing personal, it's just business"
The upgrades these days are so minor or barely noticeable I can’t think of any reason why I’d upgrade. The only thing may be artery life or camera but that’s it.
> Actual encyclopedias do a much better job of it.

I can't validate that statement and neither can you. You didn't even say which one. Setting aside the fact that traditional encyclopedias aren't part of the internet that we are discussing in this thread, I will at least give you that the motivations of a traditional encyclopedia are more clear than the amorphous network of people who maintain Wikipedia.

I have a 1936 set of Encyclopedia Britannica on the shelf, you should read some of the articles in that.
The quality of Tesla varies a lot depending on the factory in which it was built. The ones that came from the USA are probably the worst, especially at the beginning of a model. The ones that came from China are surprisingly better built. We own a Tesla Model 3 built in China, and I could compare the quality to what we drove during our multiple test drives, to what our friends got (built in the USA), and what I saw online. Our car had none of the issues reported by people with cars built in the USA.
That explains, in my opinion, the different experiences you see online.

Media distorts the negative experiences, but there are a lot of Tesla owners for which Tesla was the first car. And those people tend not to report issues because they don't have something to compare. I heard about people who could not take delivery of the car because the trunk was not closing and opening properly, and they had to wait for the service to re-align it on the delivery date. For someone who bought a car before, this is hard to accept as "normal".

The quality is probably improving daily, but I would not dismiss any complaints as exaggerated by the media.
Hmm, Been in software development for 13 years not and I don't really agree with most of these.

Maybe it's common, but I'd say certainly not a guarantee.
They mean phablets? The shipments of smartphones likely plummeted above 90% because there is like 1 model available in total.
The last couple of times I upgraded, bloat in maps navigation was reason enough to upgrade to a faster phone. I don't want a sluggish UI while driving. Hoping Google doesn't cram much more ads or junk into the maps app or Waze.
I suggest that the cause of the anglosphere housing crisis is a shared legal system, which sucks, and which is not practiced by anyone else.
As someone who has been doing, IF for 11 years and has moved to OMAD (more or less) I’d say…not really

Yeah, you might gorge yourself on occasion and have one our two day surplus, but it’s not something that anyone would regularly do because it’s not only uncomfortable, but it also messes with your gut. So in function while you’re correct, it is possible theoretically to ingest the same calories in a tiny window of eating as somebody who eats throughout a whole day, your body can’t process food that quickly and will give you significant gastrointestinal distress
So how's about the browsers/root-programme operators simply stop bundling a root store?

Instead, they could hive-off their root programme into an independent operation. Make it possible for the user to choose which root store they want. Does EIDAS mandate that browsers must provide a root store?

I occasionally pick over my root store(s) looking for government-run root-certs for governments I don't need to trust. But the names of those root certs aren't transparent; you have to research each one before you can safely distrust it.

Most government-run roots are only needed by citizens of that country; e.g. countries that issue government electronic ID that you need for things like voting (which isn't that common). So I'd choose a minimal root store, and then perhaps add back groups of certs, based on what my specific needs were. This could be managed through a slick UI.

It would be extra cool if browser manufacturers could restrict government-issued CAs to attesting subdomains of their CC-TLD. It's nuts that (e.g.) the Turkish and Hungarian governments can attest any domain they want.
I would've keep my last 2 phones for much longer than 5 years but it was not to be. Death by faulty lightning cable connection both times.
I had two P20s, probably my favourite phone I owned. Both died from water damage after about a year, which never happened to me with any other phone - not sure if I got unlucky or they have a particular design flaw here.
I would like to pitch OpenStreetMap as another example (to be clear there are also banners about donating, but it is smaller and not misleading one)
That is what EVs are for. Replace the battery every few years and replace your car whenever a new incompatible plug standard comes out.
I was in a similar boat. My Galaxy S9+ was in its 5th year when I learned about the security update stoppage. I went for a midrange Pixel 6a that approximates the flagship of 2018. I'm not sure if this is due to getting used to the Samsung UX style after 9 years, but I find some choices Google made to be less intuitive or smooth, though I've gotten used to it. The only thing I maaay look for in my next phone which I don't currently haven't yet had is a 120hz refresh rate - but I might not want the extra power draw. So I'm satisfied. The extra battery life is a huge QoL improvement.
URGENT - Does anyone have an alternative to OpenAI's embeddings API?
I do have alternative to GPT's API (e.g. Anthropic Claude) but I'm not able to use them without embeddings API (used to generate semantic representation of my knowledge base and also to create embeddings from user's queries). We need to have an alternative to OpenAI's embeddings as a fallback in case of outages.
Does that include people that never even played (or installed the game)? Because I have lots of games I never intended to play but were part of a bundle and I wanted to support the developer.
> this is a failure of basic society functioning on so many levels.

True it boils down to people really. Society has just a facade of being functioning, in reality it as bad as the govt, banks that it represents.
> want a reasonably sized phone

I think that's the biggest problem. If you accept >6" screens, you'll find a phone that hits most of those criteria. But if you want a smaller phone?

iPhone 13 mini from 2021 or Pixel 4a from 2020. And I still would call those large, one-handing those screens is uncomfortable even with large hands.

You want an actual small phone, around 5", like the early iPhones? Fucking XZ2 Compact from early 2018. At least Linage still supports it...
Apple's main thing is that their devices and systems are appliances. They restrict what can be done to the most common tasks so those tasks can be polished. Tasks that they don't support are often more or less impossible to do.

And that's probably what most people want, or think they want.
I switched to wireless charging last year because I too feared wear and degradation of the charging port.
All Windows does it set itself first in the boot order whenever you start it. What happened to pressing F9 during POST to open the boot menu? Is that too advanced for people that are dual-booting different operating systems?
>and so much of the development knowledge will be lost to the sands of time

This is when you put on your Assange mask and start saving documents to leak later. Capitalism is going to eat itself, along with all of our technical and institutional knowledge, unless people put that continuity of expertise before the company or even their own jobs. One of the many Boomer habits that we simply cannot carry on into the future is, "Retiring without passing on what we know because it's less trouble and more job security."
This is very exciting, the interop with C really opens the ability to fold this into an existing OS and drivers. Any existing examples of operating system integration, for example working with SafeRTOS [0].

It's very hard for legal tools to change open source engines. Even if they compelled code changes from the engine maker, the downstream browsers could modify the engine code before putting it in their browsers. This is especially true for configuration type changes, like which certificate authorities to trust or which websites to blacklist.
My 12 Pro Max is basically the first phone that I don't feel compelled to upgrade even almost 3 years later. Besides the performance and the good enough camera, it also has proven remarkably resistant to the inevitable falls from a pocket/table with no broken glass so far.

I will wait for the next wave of edge-based AI applications that would take advantage of update Apple CPUs to upgrade. Probably in 12 to 24 months.
The definition that matters is not the OED, but the laws that govern companies.
Hey, looks interesting. Do you offer any kind of support for this service as well?
I guess somebody that is not quite familiar with Kubernetes and is in need for easier option, need adequate support.
While your point is valid, the researchers in the paper cite evidence from other studies that intermediate fasting reduces calorie intake.

I think the OP has a pretty reasonable point, intermediate fasting, restricts calories to certain hours, calories restriction in general restricts calories to a quantity.

Probably worth exploring the citation to know how well this holds.

“Evidence shows that limiting the eating window to 6 to 10 hours within a 24-hour period naturally reduces energy intake by 200 to 500 kcal/d”.

They laughed at Semmelweis, they laughed at Wegener, but they also laughed at Bozo the Clown. One of these is not like the others!

The plate tectonics hypothesis was criticized because there was no known mechanism for how continental plates could drift. Until that mechanism was understood, it was perfectly good science to be critical of Wegener's hypothesis, and a Wikipedia of that time would have been entirely correct to document the hypothesis as controversial. Hindsight is 20:20.

It's also very much not an encyclopedia's job to try to discover the "truth", whatever that means! Its job is explicitly to document current consensus understanding, however flawed that might be. Trying to figure out the "truth" is very much above Wikipedia editors' pay grade.

Pseudoscience and conspiracy theories are something entirely different from simply proposing hypotheses that might not be backed by currently available evidence, and it's incredibly fallacious and dangerous to try to equate homeopathy or flat-Earthism or climate change denial with something like hand hygiene or plate tectonics.
Most advertising for iPhone 15 seems call out that it's made of titanium... there is nothing else of note.

I have one and I do love it but the only innovations I'm interested in going forward are:

- get rid of the camera hump, make it a true slab (even if that means smaller/fewer cameras)
- engineer away Dynamic Island.

Then it's really done with this form-factor, and I'll be waiting for holographic projection out of my watch.
> Reason and basic human decency seemed to prevail at the Supreme Court’s big argument about whether domestic abusers should be armed.

Very cynical reaction: Or maybe the Marshal of the U.S. Supreme Court had a quiet little talk with the Justices. (Or at least Roberts.) About the consequences of hard-right Court rulings, which could give blank-check gun rights to history-of-violence nut jobs. Especially consequences impacting her own #1 Official Duty - providing physical security for the ever-so-precious butts of the current U.S. Supreme Court Justices.

Great point, imagine learning about Roman history and some 3d models of the Roman cities pops up.

Work environment have changed so much in the latest years and I feel school remained the same. Last week a young family member asked what does excel do? and she's about to enter college, and we're talking about Ireland that it supposed to have a good school system
> How would you solve that?

Does it need to be solved? If we're talking about the magic and wonder of the early internet, then I raise you my 800-count Geocities counter and my Neopets storefront with probably got less views than that.

The early web was much, much, much smaller. There weren't slashdot effects that made you go viral. You just did things because you felt cool, and getting like 800 views lifetime or 1200 views was exciting.

Oh right. No one here is actually talking about early internet are they... because they want modern internet attention with a million tweets and half-a-million views by going viral.

> How would I discover a blog in practice and how would this work from a technical standpoint?

Things weren't discoverable back then. You surfed on hours on web-rings looking for like-minded folk. When you found them, they weren't active any more (not by modern day active anyway), but seeing their pages encouraged you to dig deeper.

-------------------

That's IMO, the wonder of the early internet that has been lost today. People didn't seek attention back then, because the internet was still niche.

But now that the internet has proven itself to be one of the best ways to project and capture attention, its become a better reflection of society. I don't think we're going back.

Wikipedia doesn't really have attention-seekers. Just moderators diligently doing their job. Community driven sites off of the advertising networks are likely closer to replicating the feel of early internet, by self-selecting away from attention seekers.
there's a bit of psychology at play too I bet

if you have a 'daily budget' of 1500 calories, personally I would much rather skip breakfast and have a burger and fries for dinner than 3 'slim meals' throughout the day (i'd probably stick to that more readily too)
A battery replacement gets a lot more bang for your buck vs. a phone replacement. Especially for non-power users (e.g., grandma).

Honestly, I would vote for that.
Might as well have a quick discussion here. How's everyone finding the new models?

4-Turbo is a bit worse than 4 for my NLP work. But it's so much cheaper that I'll probably move every pipeline to using that. Depending on the exact problem it can even be comparable in quality/price to 3.5-turbo.
However the fact that output tokens are limited to 4096 is a big asterisk on the 128k context.
Did you even read the article?

First thing, Apple is the smallest loser in this upgrade cycle. Being only downed 11% compared to downed 37% for Google.

Second, the only manufacturer growing is Motorola. Not Pixel/Next.
> and hopefully the recommendation algorithm would start to favor just good content over clickbait sellout garbage.

My problem with recommendation algorithms, at least YouTube's, is that by design they recommend things based on keywords and categories for videos you have watched previously. So what happens is that I get hooked on some new topic, say cave diving for example. And then I watch a whole bunch of cave diving videos ... until I get sick of cave diving and want something different. But because of my viewing patterns, my recommendations are FLOODED with cave diving videos that I don't care about anymore.

I don't know how to solve that problem. And it might even just be a "me" problem related to the way that my brain works.

Android, Samsung lower mid-range phone: set to maximum 85% charge thru the OS was a nice find in the menu.
But you said you're European. Are you a US citizen?

You can renounce a citizenship. They added an exit-fee recently. Plus if you've been living in the US working for a US company you've been paying taxes, no?

Or else you're under the table and not paying taxes, in which case this is all moot.
Singapore and HK are outliers in general as they're city states (and the latter won't be a separate government in 23 years anyhow).

Also by OECD standards it definetly tracks.
> privileged elite living in corporate, walled compounds that insulated them

Given that elite was shown as hyper-meritocratic (even in the dynamic between two main characters), I think that's the utopia-like part.

> compliance to a corporate agenda

The least-bad large entity agenda throughout history. Again they have a pretty prominent example where elites are working on more efficient food production, among other things. It's like the Green revolution (which many people also didn't like because it was unnatural) :)

> damaged world, and the damage that their own work caused

Was it more damaged than real world? I guess I don't remember very well, or maybe I was reading it thru the same lens as I read real-world doomerism, where "Millenials are poor and doomed" articles are contradicted by basic statistics.

How much is this just a result of the modern games market being so heavy on sales and things like Humble Bundle?

When I was a kid I put in my best effort to play through games (well, at least before piracy) because they were relatively expensive that had to be "bought" through begging and good grades. Being physical copies there was also a cost to keeping them.

Nowadays I am more likely to just buy a few year old game that I was interested in for like $5 and leave it in my digital library for if I ever have the time to play through it. Only to usually just go back to Factorio.
It's at least nice to see a company call this what it is (a "major outage") - seems like most status pages would be talking about "degraded performance" or similar.
Noise is the largest complaint my spouse has with dense buildings. I tune things out easily, but I also found myself self conscious about walking softly when I lived above people.
I went to use Bard, and it looks so clean, such a nice UI. And the response looks so well organized, simply beautiful. If the AI only were as good as OpenAI's...
