It's funny that the company was founded 6+ years ago and this product has been in development at least since that time, but all of a sudden it's all about AI? We really going to pretend all these features weren't shoveled in in the last 3 months by buying a ChatGPT API token?

Recognizing the food you are holding and coming up with a calorie count was the only part of the demo I found genuinely cool, but I also know that AI tech isn't far enough along to get anywhere close to accurate results right now in the real world.

Something like AI Pin might be ubiquitous like the smartphone at some point in the future, but right now isn't the time for it, and Humane may or may not be the company to eventually crack the code.
My biggest gripe with JetBrains' lineup is the different "spins" for different languages. They should make a single IDE with plugins for many different languages to deliver a vastly superior experience to VSCode.

Multi-language code bases aren't that uncommon either. As you say mixing C and Rust is common in apps and systems level programming. Mixing JavaScript, TypeScript, Go, and other languages like Python is also pretty common in web-centric stuff.
I think there are but there's no one place to find them. Many lawyers in the startup space will discount or waive their legal fees when working with entrepreneurs and founders.
The learn more page breaks for me on scroll on chrome and ios though :(
I think your success with this entirely depends on what and why you're reaching out to them, no?
Missed a huge opportunity to market:

Wave over wake

Then do some type of magic proximity sensor to begin capture, then detect if hand is facing in or out, to then wake. The tap and hold is too much, and the marketing interplay of magic wand wave as the open command could have made powerful ads.

That said, this is still the best glimpse of the future. Incredible job by the team
Spam is one kind of abuse.
Nice yall - love the updates

You have built a really great product that is easy to use. I've tested out the self-hosted option on render.com with neon postgres and the cloud version. Both are super easy to get up and running.

Now, it is no exaggeration to say that the most annoying part of adding a new integration is just navigating the API provider's portal to get the app outh creds.
I had the pleasure of working with Shreyans as a SE at Maven last year and it's funny to see how this blog post explains some of the experience working together. There was a strong aversion to meetings and process and big emphasis on empowering the employees to make judgement calls and just reach out for comment if they're unsure. Those things just made sense to me so I didn't question it but coming so recently from Google might have made those aversions stronger. At the end of the day, I enjoyed that way of working (which is probably much harder to do with bigger teams) and I hope to bring it to the next place I go.

I left for a funded opportunity to travel Europe while doing an urban studies masters (https://www.4cities.eu/) but it wasn't an easy decision. I hope we work together again in the future. If anyone is looking to work at an education startup check out maven.com for sure.
I've always been skeptical of benchmarking because of the memorization problem. I recently made up my own (simple) date reasoning benchmark to test this, and found that GPT-4 Turbo actually outperformed GPT-4: https://open.substack.com/pub/talcai/p/making-up-a-new-llm-b...
Agree... That's what really rubs me the wrong way about it.

I also feel like, 'opt in' probably opens a user up to even more 'creepy stuff' than is already happening.
I think you only get 100 requests / day during the preview.
I don’t think even Apple influence can possibly stave off software becoming worse faster than hardware is getting better.
> Not for the first time, Peter Thiel has lost interest in democracy.

Is it democracy when billionaires determine the options from which everyone else is allowed to vote?
Don't worry, you're not missing much, it's really dead out there.
thank you! I am currently enjoying it
Very excited for future hardware from Valve. Especially excited for the rumored VR headset that'll double as a set-top-box for your TV (at least that's what I've heard).
I think realistically that's what it was. The odds were definitely not in our favour to meet.
I liked the other one better- "Microsoft won’t let you close OneDrive on Windows until you explain yourself"

Very nice. I was told about this pattern when I was working on a web RTS. I was explained to me that many of the web "games" at the time would offer you virtual currency/gems/whatever when you try to leave.

I find it all very classy. I really should force my wife off windows. Her next laptop is going to run Linux no matter what. Even a Mac would be an improvement but sane configurations start at like 2000 euro.
No, they haven’t and they aren’t.
My first email did not come off aggressive. I was just confused on what I did wrong.

Like I mentioned I never got a warning or anything. So, I apologized for what I may have done as it was never my intention and asked what can I do to fix it.

They ignored my first email, so I sent them another one the next day with the same purpose to figure out what I did wrong and it was after the fact that they suspended my account which is why I responded the way I did.

They ignored the second email, so I sent them a 3rd email to catch their attention because it’s unlawful to just destroy someone’s online presence with no explanation or time to comply cause this is how someone makes a living and connects with other professionals.

I’m aware of other professional networking communities but they are niche based for entrepreneurs like indiehackers and joinentre.

LinkedIn, is an industry norm when it comes to doing overall business.
Sounds like you had a good doc. These days it seems like the insurance companies have won- every doctor I talk to has the most beaten-down expression when I ask them about coding and their relationship with insurance companies. For most I talk to, they got into medicine to help people, but find themselves spending a frustrating amount of their time fighting with insurance.
Wouldn't it be easier to share the work of updating the integration code when the API evolves?
No, but thanks to a devil's brew of knee-jerk moral panic and regulatory capture, nobody else can afford to enter your market. You're stuck with the incumbents.

Sorry, but you can't say you weren't warned. We're seeing the same thing happen with AI now.
I found the talk about SwiftGodot amazing. Do we really need to be reminded in this context about what the speaker did 20+ years ago? Like, any relation to the talk or to Godot AT ALL?
Whatever else we may all think of him, I strongly agree with this point:

> He hungered for advances in the world of atoms, not the world of bits.

Though his investment pattern doesn't seem to reflect it. And he seems to have forgotten that democracy is indeed the worst form of government, except all the others.
OpenAI says ChatGPT downtime caused by targeted attack
I'd love to hear how a bar for discourse set at "[everything you read on unrelated wedge issue I've inserted into the conversation] is lies and propaganda" is lowered by "this is disinformation. Here's a study"...

People say "two wrongs don't make a right" when they're not singling out the words of only the second party as the reason why people can't talk to each other on the internet.
It's almost literally a sidekick passport. If you fly into a city with a major Google office and you say you are there for work and you work at Google, the customs agent might ask to see your badge.

Well, he's against anyone being allowed to vote if they don't vote the way he would prefer, which is why he gave up on democracy: there were too many people who disagree with his preferences, so it was too hard for his side to win.

Democracy would be fine (and women voting would be fine), if the electorate (and women in sufficient numbers) voted for Thiel's preferences.
The problem is despite global population increasing, the local population in most of the countries are on the route to decline. The average age in these countries also increasing as well, changing the lifestyle and requirements of the population.

Sure, immigration helps here and there, but I don't think it's going to be a solution in 20 years and more. I could even see the case where countries with younger population start experiencing problems due to emigration, and try to avoid that as well. Speaking of which, birth rates are decreasing in those countries as well, as they develop and have better prospects for their own children.

I hope we can somehow reverse this trend, but so far not a single country was able to achieve this despite growing pains.
Twitter is being replaced the way Craigslist was replaced, gradually and by many options instead of one. There won't be a single new sudden Twitter replacement. That's a good thing, I use a bigger variety of sources than I did before quitting Twitter. I don't rely so much on any one.
Pretty much most and Thinkpad or Dell works out of the box. You may have to change a setting here or there for some advanced things like adaptive charging, but most of the time the core OS works very well.

There is also Framework laptops, and Librem laptops that are linux first.

My current DD is an Ideapad with Manjaro, which even being somewhat more bleeding edge than Debian based ones, has not only been flawless, but things like Nvidia Optimus work straight out of the box, with external displays.
> help-over-gchat idea isn't really a product space any more

Couldn’t disagree more, most web presences in B2C have a chat box where you can talk to someone or something on the other end. Usually they’re horrible but when they’re good they’re fucking great.

I think the other problems you outline, plus the fact that google went through this process with gchat itself (anyone remember Allo?) are probably the main contributors. As a sibling comment notes: google’s product org is meme-level terrible from top to bottom.
Not really, Pathfinder 1 isn't even close to using the capacity of its current hangar https://d2n4wb9orp1vta.cloudfront.net/cms/brand/CW/2023-CW/1...

Hangar One at Moffett (where Pathfinder is) is 348,964 sqft while the largest airship hangar ever built was the Aerium hangar at 851,500 although they didn't wind up building the big airship that was supposed to go along with it and converted it into an indoor rainforest resort and waterpark.
> the other involved sovereigns

The European Union isn’t sovereign. It likes to pretend it is, but it isn’t.

> Are treaties now just lies of convenience?

They’ve just about always been just lies of convenience. Think Molotv-Ribbentrop pact. Or the START treaty. Or the Iranian nuclear deal. Or the Treaty on Conventional Armed Forces in Europe, which is dead as of yesterday, because NATO suspended it too.
But hes talking about cpp
Looks pretty decent.
I like the name and tagline.
The app runs well on iOS except it seemed kind of difficult to swipe through the intro/tutorial section after signing up, had to close and reopen the app when it didn't seem to want to go to the next slide. Would recommend a skip button somewhere for that part. I like the use of friend codes too.

What did you build it in?
I agree you still need some sort of moderation, but maybe you can ameliorate that too if you scale cost by reputation, and also let users filter by reputation. If you keep waving your penis at people, maybe soon the only people who end up talking to you are people who actually like it and volunteer moderators taking the money to see if you're worth reporting... I don't know, it'd be hard to get the balance right, and you'd need to effectively "punish" people with a fresh identity quite harshly at first or people would just keep starting over, but I'd love to see someone try to tackle it.
Sad to hear that.
Probably this will be a common problem: good ideas probably dying/losing a lot initial traction because of being rate limited on launch.
I think the parent you’re replying to knows that, they were asking if this was an example of that.
Collaboration is absolutely required when the product is undefined. You as an engineer would not be able to do your job correctly unless you could communicate with a designer, a UX-researcher, a product manager, etc (unless of course you are talented enough to fulfill all of those roles by yourself).

Quite typically, communication between all of the above parties is required quite often, as snags are discovered along the way and they constantly require re-working and tweaking the original concept.

> One company asked me whether I'd like to join the monitoring team or the container team, to which I replied "why can't I work in whatever team needs me the most, and switch whenever needed?"

Far too many companies are designed as management empires instead of as engineers-as-drivers of change. This means that you are being only hired as a headcount in a reporting chain, not as a versatile engineer that can be help boost a company. They'll impose ineffective policies such as you cannot switch teams before 18 months, or a manager can sabotage your mobility with some reviews. All of this is designed to keep the corporate structure inflexible.

It is a structural problem in most American corporations, that they are unable to get past. Faang, and specifically Facebook, encouraged so much mobility - and it showed in the way they completely smashed larger competitors like Google, Microsoft in the last decade.
Can anyone comment on how using OLED might affect total power consumption?

Edit:

I don't think anyone was criticizing "AI" when M1 came out, or when such applications were given to Google Pixel to improve camera stuff or whatever.

The issue is that this LLM boom, coinciding with the crypto-bro crash, has caused a lot of scammers to pivot out of cryptocoins and into AI.

There's a real subset of R&D happening with AI no doubt. But keep your guard up, there's also a flood of cryptobros who have lost everything after FTX who are trying to pivot into another field. That's all that I'm saying.
I have cited sources that include a balanced account of Jews living alongside Arabs in peace throughout the Ottoman Empire for hundreds of years. Neither I or the source I cited indicates there was zero violence. If you read into it, you'll find violence started escalating in the 19th century after nationalism was introduced. Over hundreds of years, is there anywhere where anyone didn't encounter "multiple" violent confrontations? If zero violent confrontations is the standard we're judging by, I don't think any country will meet that standard.

I'm not sure why a factual account of history is "bizarre" because it starts in 1885. The "Jews were there first" argument, the idea that we should redrew the world as it was 2000+ years ago (but ignore the subsequent ~1000 years), isn't a new one. I just always wonder why the logic only applies to Palestine, but somehow not the rest of the world.

Popularity is very relevant when the entire root of this thread is a discussion about law. If you propose laws that ban popular features, you're not going to be a very successful politician.
Right. GP didn't say more difficult though, but "multiple order of magnitude", which is to say, at least 100 times more difficult.

Ten per cent more difficult, OK. But ten thousand per cent?
Not enough but trying to do more.
> or you look at a product and hear "you can get this for 30% less at this store"...

That's called an ad (in particular, a coupon) and could be done already with phone cameras and the pseudo-AR that's been trendy in the past few years, but it's cheaper done by simple contextual advertising or even a coupon site.

Not that it's actually useful. That "30% less" is coming from somewhere, and believe me, it's not coming from the sellers if they can help it. Someone's getting shafted, and as the saying goes, if you can't spot the sucker in the room, you're the sucker.

You should really read your sources a little more closely:

That's a banner at the top of the page.

> Since there are six 16-bit segment registers in the 386, I suspect these are the segment registers and two mystery registers.

I'm no expert...but I'd guess the 2 mystery registers are for scratch use by the microcode. When executing CALL, INT, etc. in protected mode, a '386 chip can easily burn 200-300 clocks on just that one assembly instruction. Lord knows how many corner cases there might be, when various things go wrong mid-instruction.
My employer does embedded Rust. We built our own little OS, Hubris, as the foundation of those projects. A no-op task in Hubris ends up at like 100 bytes, last I measured. https://hubris.oxide.computer/

You still have to like, actively think about binary size in order to get things to be that small. But the smallest x86_64 binary rustc has ever produced is 137 bytes. How small your program is up to you, not Rust.

EDIT: Oh yeah, I left a similar comment with more details about a year ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34032824
I hope they include a proper rumble pack this time, the haptic trackpad things were a little anemic. Very happy with it otherwise though.
Probably because of the misleading title.

"Peter Thiel is taking a break from funding right-wing political campaigns to work on his goal of becoming a vampire" might've been a better framing.

I do not disagree. The problem was the visual basic ecosystem was basically abandoned. I personally did not use it and thought it kinda of janky. But thousands of people for some reason really connected to it and could make interesting things. MS threw out all of that goodwill and forced Visual Studio 2002 which was utter junk compared to visual studio 6 and not really fixed until 2010. Yeah now c# is better. But at first it was a real head scratcher and the IDE made it seem terrible.

You could. However, this would require the prover to know how to evaluate the property -- in other words, the test for CSAM would have to be publicly-known, or at least known to the client.

This is not what providers and law enforcement want, since this would amount to giving away an algorithm that smart criminals could use to pre-test their content to see if it'll trip CSAM filters. To date, organizations have been extremely cagey about giving out content hashes for CSAM as well as even the algorithms for computing them, like PhotoDNA (which recently leaked.)

The more recent proposals use two-party computation so that the client doesn't know whether any given piece of content matches. You can attach ZK proofs to the client's piece of this computation, all at fairly large (computational) cost.
My understanding of OLED vs LCD displays is that LCDs are more consistent in power draw, but OLEDs draw less power with darker pictures, but more power with brighter images. So it depends on the brightness and the colors in the scene.
“Peter Thiel is still opposed to democracy” is neither news nor particularly engaging to intellectual curiosity. I'm not surprised people see it as not particularly high value for HN, which is not intended as a simply a megaphone for thr public pronouncements of the Silicon Valley old guard elite, who have plenty of media reach outside of HN.

I don't fully remember, but I think it was about One Direction. We very quickly went off on tangents, but I think the feature was implemented so that the third person can spy on the messages but not interact in any way. I sometimes wonder how long they ended up staying in the conversation.
But do you want them to live forever?
While your solution splits the whole thing into smaller and arguably more easily digestible steps, you have introduced two new variables, key1 and key2, which need to be carefully scoped (if they aren't already) so they don't clash with existing variables. If your project consists of many instances of code like this, you end up with many variables which can become harder to manage.

You're also splitting what is intended to be essentially an atomic operation into multiple steps, which can be good if you want to analyze and tweak them in the future, but it's now no longer clear where the process begins and ends in relation to the code that comes before and after: you have to add more comments, or split the whole thing out into its own function.

I'm not saying your code is bad or wrong, just that there are downsides to any solution (including mine), and ultimately everybody has to pick whichever has the fewest negatives for their particular project.
Thanks, it's OpenAI's rate limiting indeed.

You’d have to sequester them such that they don’t biodegrade. This involves deep burial, difficult for a solid, or submersion, which means ruining a deep-sea habitat (and creating a carbon time bomb).
