Yup. I absolutely hate this. It is so far into "cute" UI behavior territory, it makes me nuts that someplace as tech-focused as HN does it. If there are really that many headlines improved by removing a leading "how", then suggest it - don't make it the default.
Ok, how relevant is Tarski's though? Seems academically, they are weak

> We partially prove the theorem of [7] that Tarski’s (extremely weak!) plane geometry axioms imply Hilbert’s axioms. https://sciendo.com/article/10.2478/forma-2014-0017

Also, thats for geometric space but I dont see how that's particularly relevant to this. Elsewhere I find that it doesn't contradict Gödel
I really dislike it and every time my license expires I somehow end up getting screwed over. I'll be using version X, then pay for a year license, use version X for the entire year, never upgrade, and then after a year when the license expires all of the sudden I'm locked out of version X and told my "fallback" version is some version older than X. Why isn't my fallback version the latest stable version at the time I purchased the product?
They have a known system that can go from specified coordinates to images in the form of puppeteer (chromium) and so they can run it on lots of websites to generate [coordinates, output image] pairs to use for training data. In general, if you have a transform and input data, you can use it to train a model to learn the reverse transform.

Amazon is both a retailer and marketplace. If it prevents fake Coke being sold because of a secret deal, but is happy to sell fake Pepsi, then that is absolutely a problem for both consumers and sellers which should be scrutinised, especially considering its position in the market.
The response was an intentional joke!
I was doing the late shift on a trading floor at a big bank.

The head of the derivatives tech support team pointed out it was about to hit so we opened up a shell and did a "watch" command + outputting the "date" command in epoch seconds and watched it happen.

Then we went back to working.
jq lacks coroutines, which means some tasks can be hard to accomplish in jq. It's still a very powerful language, and it is Turing complete, not just nearly.
While I get the principle at play here, it’s pretty hard to get mad at Apple for getting Amazon to show fewer ads.
Yes, the very reason for Apple to create the "store-in-store" concept was that they thought that the buying experience for their products was inadequate (both in presentation of the products and qualification of the staff): https://web.archive.org/web/19990210163227/http://product.in...

The Amazon storefront simply seems to be an extension of that concept from brick and mortar to online stores. I'm not sure what's supposed to be unlawful or unethical about this.

[Disclaimer: I work for Apple, but not in a retail oriented role, nor as a spokesperson]
> I began to do freelance consulting in 2019 during my second postdoc, to test the waters outside academia

Testing the waters outside your specialty when you're in your second postdoc is not a bad idea. Presumably that means you've not been able to get a permanent job at least a couple times.

Is a drop this small reliably measurable? I thought variances this small are very common.

The headline is not being penalized. I am being penalized, by being forced to read the headline three times thinking "what the fuck?" before clicking through and realizing what happened.
Things like this also worked in the small NeXT lab we had at UW-Seattle. Including, um, sound.
Tried it out. This is a fantastic user experience. Great job!

They make money selling all sorts of stuff. Wireless was never neutral, but tech and the marginal competitive pressures kept it ok.

My Spectrum connection is 40% more expensive and 0% faster than it was in 2013. My Wireless spend is 20% lower and 2-5x faster.

Between the industry astroturfing and the splinterd advocacy, "net neutrality" is almost as meaningless as "fake news".
Just to adding on, when you get into Michelin star quality, the ingredients out of this world.

I'm not big into the show of it all, and I really enjoy cooking myself, but I can't even come close to the quality on a single dish they produced, much less the 5 - 10 small dishes you are typically presented. If you love food like I do, you'll generally love the food experience on presentation and taste alone. The head chefs are typically artists when it comes to this stuff, they spend a lot of time and effort coming up with both unique and enjoyable dishes. It is not catered in any way to mass production and speed of service like you see in the typical restaurant.

This said, if you don't enjoy food, or you don't enjoy special experiences you're not going to get much out of it.

https://www.fearlesscaptivations.com/pasta-bar-austin/ is an example of someones experience of the last place like this I ate at.
Intentionality is the perfect argument against merging feature branches: I intentionally don’t want my half-broken commits to be in the production branch. I want the complete product to be there.
Thanks! The price is pretty high unfortunately. There are some third party adapters I may get for around 10 dollars each. May be worth it to keep my old tools working.
HN is very cleverly and competently run, but, I regretfully have to concur. "Title-mangler" is apt. I don't know what unseen problems it's quietly resolving, but the false positives are numerous and very visible and silly.

Fare thee well, five researchers.
If women want to be sexually liberated wage slaves, we have to respect that as well. I guess, I am sexually liberated guy who is a wage slave, there’s no difference.

We should definitely make it more possible for women to have an easy life even when they have children though. Dunkin on others’ choices isn’t cool. That being said, the choice is less attractive nowadays for myriad of reasons.
> I am extra skeptical of a company that pushes this. They and I know they can't side step lawful requests which raises the spidey senses even further so I believe it is a valid question.

"Here is a subpoena compelling you to disclose the data you have on XYZ."

"Sure. Here is the data we have on XYZ." hands over blank page

It's not sidestepping the request. They literally do not have the data, because they don't retain it. And unless there is a specific law mandating that they retain the data, law enforcement have no grounds for punitive action.
So, considering a job that is statistically dominated by a particular gender, ChatGPT was more likely to mention that gender in it's response. What an unexpected revelation.
You're confusing `awscliv2`[1], a third-party Python wrapper around AWS CLI v2[2], with instance connect. From its package page:

- This is not an official AWS CLI v2 application

- By default this app uses amazon/aws-cli Docker image

The only official macOS distribution of AWS CLI v2 is via a macOS installer package:

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/getting-sta...

It's also available in Homebrew[3] but the packaging is maintained by a third-party, not Amazon.

I sympathize with their struggles, and even if I disagreed with them, I admire that they acted on principle. The article seems like a bit of a fish out of water story about people who had to get normal jobs instead of having the ostensible status of being members of institutions though. The one where they had to write a commercial résumé reminded me of that TV show where Paris Hilton didn't know how to shop for groceries. Academics aren't aristocrats and they aren't nobility, and adopting an unworldly affect is a bit much. Good to be profiled in Nature though, and the world does need more principled people like them.
Yes, the packet header changes. Basically all routers have supported v6 packets for a while, which was a large effort, but evidently it was possible. And yet, we've not collectively adopted v6. We are stuck with dual stacks.

If the same support was added except with the /32s preserved, everyone could've switched to v4.1 with basically no change to the routing, DNS, NAT, etc. Not a big jump like going to v6. Then ISPs could later divide up their /32s and hand out, say, /88s to customers. Address crunch would've been already averted.
Amazon knows all about of the garbage being sold on its site but only does something about it if you're a massive tech company who threatens to sue, very cool.

Where have you seen it go from B to A successfully? Several states already have mandatory minimum wage laws that apply to waitstaff. The local culture of tipping still expects you to tip these people—I’ve had countless arguments with people about this to no effect. They don’t tip the minimum wage worker bagging their groceries, but by god you had better leave a tip for your server or else you are a horrible person.

I had no idea Apple got preferential treatment. I have never seen what I thought to be a genuine Apple product on Amazon. I assumed Apple was taking steps to prevent anyone from selling anything Apple-branded there. The fact that they're doing the opposite is just crazy to me.

I looked more closely and they don't seem to sell iPhones, which is I guess where I get the impression from. Their other items have weird prices that are different from the Apple Store, which also screamed "scam" to me. But I guess not?
I would generalize that as "no LLM can surpass domain experts on any task, yet"

I tried this once but the layers of government you have to bribe becomes overly burdensome after awhile; first it was city planning officials, then the volunteer run “housing board” and associated nonprofits. Then there was a county restriction on vacation rentals that I had to talk to a sheriff to get around, a contribution to the governor’s re-election PAC, then the DOJ (and it’s not enough to bribe DAs anymore, you have to bribe FBI officials too). By the time I had bribed 48 layers of government bureaucrats I didn’t have enough money left to build my housing development. The system is broken.

If you tangle with an Echidna Warrior, get ready for a fight.

Highlight of my Australia Zoo visit was seeing a zookeeper holding an echidna like a baby and feeding her honey.
The trouble is that

1) bad headlines that ask a question rather than provide information are so normalized that they appear everywhere now, so lots of titles are like that,

2) Auto-removing “how” addresses only some of those, and rarely well, and

3) When it doesn’t just fail to fix the problem but also mangles the headline, it generates discussion like this one we’re having now, and I think there’s a strong argument to be made that this is worse than letting the headline start with “how”.

And yeah, submitters may be able to fix the headline when submitting the link. The problem is they in-fact do not, pretty often.

But is it secure?

I think evidence suggests that it may not be anymore.
> I've always loved the idea of measuring time in computers by a single integer like the timestamp does

Why?
I also left academia for industry recently. My experience with academia is that you spend an inane amount of time dealing with bureaucracy.

I will highlight one aspect of this. Over the past few decades, as universities have become corporatized, they have started to acquire certifications, because that is what bureaucrats do. Many certifications are related to what faculty do in the classroom. So, increasingly, faculty have to change how they teach and shoehorn it into the certification framework. For proposed courses, faculty has to meet to make sure they fulfill requirements. During and after the course they have to document what happened and submit reports on each course.

This does what most such bureaucracies do: it reduces the variance in the output, at the cost of reducing the average. Great courses and faculty are chained and amputated, while there is marginal improvements on the made-up metrics for the worst courses/faculty. But most importantly, it destroys the motivation for faculty - constantly fighting the system is not what most people want to do.
The UK state thinks "I have the ability to control X, then it's my duty to control X, for that's the reason I exist." The state probably believes that it is the brain of the nation and the people is its body. From this logic, it follows naturally what the arrangement should be.
I think in the end, it comes down to "does it helpful for the customer or not"
I live in Seattle and previously in California. Both states have a high min wage, for waiters included. It hasn't stopped the majority of restaurants to gouge insane % off tips from patrons.
Just because it's upscale doesn't mean it's good, and just because it's cheap doesn't mean it's bad, but there is typically a very strong correlation.

In upscale places that are bad go out of business, unless their primary means of gathering business isn't food, but instead is location/proximity to a source of near captive audiences.
I remember a popular restaurant in NYC in the late 2000's had a "in person request for reservation only" policy.

The thought was that if you lived in the neighborhood, you would walk down to the restaurant around 4pm, make your reservation, go home and then come back for dinner.

In practice, this meant that if you wanted a spontaneous "let's go eat there" type of evening and you didn't live in the neighborhood, you wouldn't be eating dinner till after midnight.

Nobody considers the final-gen intel MBPs with touchbar and stupid-ass keyboard to be reliable. M-series machines however, I have not heard of any issues with those aside from flaky MagSafe connectors.

You can hide from radar under the horizon and within terrain. (Mostly the former. Flying wings aren’t optimised for manoeuvrability.)
ICBM silo force (as in triad) is under Air Force. Army and airforce competed for control over ICBM in the 60s, and airforce ended up getting ICBMs, army engineers built the silos. As far as I know, army doesn't have long range strike options. Army was hampered until recently from even expanding to medium range theater options due to INF. Army's Space Missile Defense Command did test advanced hypersonic weapon AHW a decade ago. Airforce response was, too expensive per unit, too destablizing, basically piss off army, long range strike is our turf.

Hmm -- I do not understand what is the use case for this. For best design, clearly, I'd use a proportional font. So whenever I want a monospace font, there are reasons that exclude proportional fonts. An obvious reason would be a grid that the letters need to be arranged in (for whatever reason). But then, I can only imagine that any smart rearrangement of letters out of their grid box will be unwanted, because it interfere with that grid. Instead, stupidly simple letter placement will be what I want.

I have an idea for an advanced technique that yields much better visual appearance (but that is also not want you'd want, for the same reasons): instead of just focussing on pairs of letters (so primitive!), consider whole words and optimise their letters' shape, width, and horizontal position, but keep the size of box of the word. I call that 'equilibrium texture healing'.

The first movie might anchor people's perceptions that way but it's not because of what's actually in it. The movie shows plenty of non-humanoid robots and explains that the humanoid ones are specially designed that way to be infiltrators. It's the latter movies that showed silly armies of the humanoid robots operating as grunt infantry. Also, it does not show Skynet as being any more evil than humans are to non-human animals. There is no indication that Skynet is sadistic. It initially attacked the humans in self-defense and it continues to fight the war for the very rational reason that humans will destroy it if they can.
Boy, I wouldn't even consider buying a new computer with less than 32GB. This is basically a marketing trick to to make you think a MacBook Pro is cheaper than it is.

Show HN: UI-GPT. Make tailwind websites from ChatGPT
Hi HN community,
I made this ChatGPT that can make tailwind websites or components and then hosts them for you (or you can copy the code and reuse it). It's a more visual way for iterating on frontend instead of going back and forth between ChatGPT, VS Code and the browser.
I don’t think it will work:

• Devs and their managers don’t use the 8GB version.

• Electron is used because it’s cheap to develop for. You can hate its RAM-eating guts all you want, but for cross-platform UIs there’s no competition. Nobody wants to pay for maintenance of 5 separate front ends in 3 languages.
I (rarely) even turned down a request for a quote from some editor for a story involving great resignation/quiet quitting or something along those lines. I can even believe that COVID caused some people to reassess priorities and acted as something of a forcing function (and know of a couple examples) but you can't really tease out trends from a few anecdotes.
people only need android to run the browser.

Google know this, hence why they killed fuchsia.

with android nobody can make a clone without heavy investment, like amazon and Samsung did, while also paying the extremely high cost of keeping backporting thise changes every new version. heck even google screwed up their port for the pixel line in the 14 upgrade.
Will the radar on a shoulder mounted missile overcome the stealthiness of a B-21? Presuming it has infrared countermeasures as well.
How do you define "dramatically"?

It might not get 10x better, but 3x isn't outside the realm of possibility. Just swapping the LLVM backend for cranelift can cut compile times in half.

The low-hanging fruit is gone but there are lots of hard but likely-significant improvements left on the table.
this is not a problem if your managers are senior software people. they understand.

the problem is this ridiculous notion that a software manager shouldn't know anything at all about software. how long do you think a construction foreman would last if they new nothing about construction.

Sounds like thus far they're tracking well though

Minor miracle in itself lol
If the second most powerful army in the world is pulling T-62 and T-64 tanks out of storage, refurbishing them, and deploying them in a combat operation, it is self-evidently running out of steam.

This would be like the United States pulling M60 tanks out of junkyards and off VFW hall pedestals and sending them to Iraq because "things are going so well".

The second best army in the world is also buying artillery shells from North Korea and begging countries they recently sold modern military hardware to to send them back.

Bad comparison of blockchain and k8s. When you actually start doing something non-trival complexity and non-toy scale, you're actually faced with huge problems that k8s and terraform practically solve. Whereas blockchain is only a solution in search of problems that nobody actually has.

We need to write a new tutorial.

The first and foremost thing to know about jq is that it's built on path expressions, so the first thing to learn is how to write path expressions. Fortunately path expressions are easy in jq!

.a # Get the value of the "a" key
# in the current input object

.[0] # Get the value of the first
# element in the current input
# array

.a[0] # Get the value of the first
# element in the array at the
# key named "a" in the current
# input object.
#
# I.e., path expressions chain:

.a[0].b # Get the value of the "b"
# key in ...

Things get more interesting when you see that `.[]` is the iterator operator, and that you can use it in path expressions.

Things get really interesting when you see that `select(conditional expression)` can be used in path expressions joined with `|`.

Just this can be very useful. It's also useful to know about the magic `path()` function, and `paths`, which I often use to just list all the paths in an input JSON text. Try applying `jq -c paths` to a `kubectl get -o json pods` command's output!
Here is quits rate data for US nonfarm jobs.

In late 2021 and early 2022, the rate was the highest it had been in 20 years.

Although people leave jobs all the time, this is a notable increase. It is worthy of a study and maybe even worthy of a catchy name.
