Why is the low level mission considered suicidal?
The most critical is probably 1. It feels like gross negligence that Linux doesn’t dominate schools already. What could be more appropriate? It’s so educational and empowering, and a great model for much more in society.

In fact, it may not be an exaggeration to say: the only plausible explanation why Linux isn’t dominant is corruption.
I don't know the poster you're replying to, but the protests against the Iraq invasion were massive, both in the US and worldwide. [1] It happened regardless. (although admittedly the protesters weren't in any physical danger, and there was much less will to punish those who started the invasion afterwards, moreover the person directly responsible for it is currently a president).

> I came to realize that I had joined the wrong version of the team

There was another blog post here on HN a few days ago from a different person at G which used very similar phrasing. (Can't find it though)
> Is this "data collection" or a backup feature?

Backup is data collection. The difference between it and other sorts of data collection is only in intent, and intent, even if initially good, can change—at which point the data is already there, so it's too late to complain.
It's sad how many people looked up to Harari, Geoffrey Hinton, Yoshua Bengio, Sam Altman, Musk, and Douglas Hofstadter a few years ago, but when they all came out to say "there are some very serious existential dangers approaching with AGI," most of HN went:

I'm confused that Neon and Argon are described as "sans" when they seem to have serifs? See the bottoms of the i and r for instance.
Hey! I'm an contributor on this (Rafi Witten), all opinions my own.

You're asking the right question but I think the math is off by a bit. The equivalent number on the H100's is 989 TFLOP/s/chip so the equivalent job is ~10K H100's = (10 * 10^18) / (989 * 10^12). (Both chips also have 8-bit acceleration!)

I believe this is the largest ML job both by exaflops and number of chips every demonstrated. Other companies own more chips or exaflops than we show in this job but getting all the hardware working at once on a single job is a different matter! :-)

This is the shit. Thank you so much for sharing. I had remembered seeing Talon before, but I did not know you could do this with it. It did not click until today. I have been messing with it all day. Its so much fun. This is a lot closer to how I would expect all of those voice assistants to work. Its also really fun working with a computer like this.

I want to see a study teaching people to code using their voice versus with typing and then also by hand.

Your code executes and is not useless.

> The rule checks for comparisons (==, !==, etc) where the outcome cannot vary at runtime, and logical expressions (&&, ??, ||) which will either always or never short-circuit.

If you write if(baz == 6) then the if clause is useless and probably a bug.

The German law you cite about getting a password is applicable if you plan to or actually access data they are not authorized to. Which is not the case (assuming they do not).

GDPR deals with privacy. The user name is personal identifiable data. The password is only personal data. The emails themselves can be PII or just personal data. GDPR legally wise, the password is the least risky set of data here (as absurd as it is). Also it is a property of the process. Take a GDPR sheet of a club about giving photographies of your kids to the newspaper. You consent to the publishing of images and give the club data for it (first name, last name, restriction, name of parent, etc). And these properties are not mentioned in the consent but just are part of the process. This is nothing else, just that we are very worried about that the property is a password.

I agree that they should ethically mention that they transfer your password. I also agree that there is no way a layman can understand any consent they grant on the Internet. There is a reason why informed consent in clinical trials (where this can be life and dead) is not just a checkbox but a conversation, quiz, explanations, etc.
Beyond specific optimization and implementation details of a compiler, the three variables of "compilation speed", "generated code optimization" and "language expressiveness" are fundamentally in tension. In order to move one axis you have to affect one or both of the other two.
Arkady and Boris Strugatsky. If you start with their earliest work, like "The Land of Crimson Clouds", you can get vibe, how communist Sci-Fi looked. If you read later stuff, like "Tale of the Troika", then you get story humorously criticizing soviet bureaucracy. Then there is pretty serious stuff, like "The Doomed City" or "Ugly Swans". You probably know "Roadside Picnic" - this interpretations in films and gaming are known as "Stalker".
No.
Because it's still early.

It quite probably will turn out to be fined.

I don't. I spend a lot more time thinking, debugging, and designing software than I do typing it. I am a decently fast touch typist (about 90WPM), but I don't think it makes much difference in my day-to-day ability to output software.
A problem with Barjavel - as I remember it - is the stylization of the stories: there is little detail, little background, little world ambiance in these books. Just a one big story. And that makes them paraboles or something - exercises about ONE idea. And not worlds.

In something like L'Incal on the contrary, the world around the story is very rich. In the way the Neuromancer world is rich. There is not JUST the story going on. It goes on in front and in the middle of a richness of OTHER ideas. Which is to me more thought-provoking because less artificial.

Yes, they were. Ukrainians managed to recover from the Soviet legacy and do the right thing, and Russians failed miserably. Russian society is atomized and Ukrainian is apparently not.

And there's probably no single reason why the history is the way it is. It's absolutely not like "Soviets were there and that's why it is the way it is". There's probably not even two or three or four reasons why - but some complex set of causes and effects that led the world to where it is today.

Don't get me wrong, please. I'm not absolving the responsibility by blaming Soviets for Russian problems. I'm just mentioning one of the potential factors, saying that Soviets had contributed to this.

Soviet legacy is probably way less important than Putin's years. Since USSR fell, Ukrainian people had elected 6 presidents, and Russia had something like two and a half, all hereditary preemniks to each other (and - again - that's not a particular reason why things are the way they are, just another indicator of how different two post-Soviet countries are).

I guess, I should've been more concise and just said that in an atomized society, uprising is considered to be an unlikely event - without trying to delve into reasons why Russian society is atomized.
See, you’re already acting as if you’re being selfish.

You’re not.

Having an IP per endpoint that is conveniently globally routable from any other endpoint is the entire purpose of the Internet!

It’s not some sort of greed or abuse of privilege! It’s the reason for the thing to exist!

This is like going to a shopping centre that has been growing along with the local population exponentially but refuses to buy more shopping carts. You can’t feel guilty for using a shopping cart “just” for your quick snack shopping as-if that’s a greedy move taking it away from more deserving people with “real” grocery shopping to do.

Stop thinking like this.
Seriously, STOP!

You’re the victim here.

You’re the victim of Amazon’s greed and lock-in.

You’re the victim of the lack of foresight for the most predictable resource exhaustion in the history of the world.

You’re the victim of a problem that has had a solution for two decades that is now included for free(!) in every network device being made but is being turned off by lazy administrators that can’t be bothered averting slow-moving catastrophies.

These B2 Bombers are impressive when they fly over. When we were kids, my brothers and me would always excitedly shout and point at them when we saw them passing by in rural northern Germany. I saw a lot of them back then, probably on mission. I didn't really grasp at that time what seeing them meant.
Zeno's paradox of software development - you can complete 90% of the remaining work, but you can never be fully done.
There was a time in the late 90s and early aughts when by the time you've unboxed your new computer it's already out of date.

I'm sure it was even more so in the 80's into the 90's, but that's a little before my time.

We have not really had a quantum leap in the last 20 years. Even longer. Apple's M-series chips are the closest we've gotten in recent times I think.

> async-stripe takes over two minutes to build due to codegen. We're considering switching to dolladollabills.

Ooohh interesting. We also use async-stripe, definitely going to have to check out dolladollabills though. Also in the Rust monorepo camp, our proof release takes ~5 mins from clean, tests are about 6 mins. We’ve invested a bit of effort getting our build-time down: don’t build in a docker container, we just copy the final artefact in-this wiped the most time of our builds. More parallel codegen units too.
I'm 32 and have been playing instruments and using computers for a long time. About a decade ago I started developing nerve compression issues that led to tingling and numbing sensations in my outer fingers. I switched to using an ergonomic keyboard and handshake mouse and modified my typing style on "regular" keyboards to eschew the use of the home row to remove ulnar deviation. The most beneficial change, however, was much simpler: I stopped sleeping with my arm under my pillow. As it turns out having my elbow sharply bent for 7 hours at a time was compressing my nerves and exacerbating symptoms. I've had zero problems since then.

As regards hearing: you should buy a few sets of nice re-usable earplugs to keep what you still have. My hearing is still great for my age but I do notice a difference from when I was younger - a few years ago I stopped hearing transformer whine (which was nice) but it was a stark reminder of the fidelity that I'd lost.
I've been using MS products since MS-DOS in my Radio Shack Model I in 1978. I've been using a cloud outlook.com email for years. Suddenly, a week or so ago, my outlook.com app lost the ability to compose new emails. I simply cannot find the option anywhere.

The only way I can create a new email is:
1. Hit reply on an existing email and delete to; subject; and body; or
2. Go to contacts, select a person, and click email to, and then modify the "to" field to insert the correct address.

WTF?
Yes, this fix was mentioned in IN-142 from Nordic.
Any feature is a "complete anti-feature" if you only count the things it gets wrong! The things it gets right mostly escape notice and never get commented on. It does a lot more good than bad, so keeping it is an easy call.

Some of the things it gets wrong do stand out like sore thumbs. Then again, it's probably good for the community to have something innocuous to hate.
There must be something else going on. I can't believe Microsoft would be so stupid as to copy people's passwords. Is this a mistake of some sort? How would something like that get approved?
My wife and I have attended several local government functions in SF and I can say we are consistently impressed by the conduct of some, but flabbergasted by the conduct of most city officials.

They're really genuinely at odds with the public in the city, they have real contempt for them and dont even hide it well. They view them as the enemy and actively work to quell their voice and continue the status quo. It's depressing really. Bad people.
As far as I know, the biggest correlation to fertility is religion, which makes some sense to me as a non-religious person; I'm not willing to put children through this existence.
It uses OAuth2 rather than IMAP for Google accounts, as per Heise's German-language reporting which was previously linked in HN (I haven't yet checked their English-language article). So the Google account password doesn't get sent to Microsoft servers or stored locally or anything, as it does with a regular IMAP account.

Microsoft stores an OAuth2 access token for these accounts, which is still unnecessary compared to the locally synced version of Outlook we're all used to, but the user can revoke it through Google account settings at any time, just like any other OAuth2 access token.
If a state or local government wants to forbid tipping it doesn’t have to be this complicated. Pass a law that says it’s forbidden, that credit card merchants and POS merchants must disable tipping functionality, and for cash tips up a hotline & fees for merchants that solicit them.

Tipping is only a thing because we’ve normalized it. If you pass a law against it, it’s no longer normal, and customers will mostly stop giving them, even without highly intrusive enforcement mechanisms.

The real challenge is getting a government to want to forbid it, because people who receive tips care about them a lot while those that don’t, don’t. Until you solve that nothing else matters. Maybe tipping will go so far that the balance shifts.

Expensive restaurants, fancy restaurants, and 3-star Michelin restaurants are not the same things.

I've eaten at a few 3-star Michelin restaurants and the experience at each was worth living imho. 3-star means not only is the food world class, but the service is as well. I still remember fondly each thing I ate, and just as importantly, the interactions I had with the chefs throughout the evening.

It happens to be the case the excellent food and service does come at a price, so Michelin 3-star places tend to be expensive. Likewise people tend to dress up when they spend a lot so they tend to be "fancy", but those are things that happen as an artifact of the quality of experience they provide.

I've been to plenty of places that are expensive and very "meh", and I absolutely loathe "fancy" restaurants that pretend they are offering you some privileged experience (which is usually a laughable facsimile of the experience of real high-end dining).

I'll add that there are also diminishing returns: The experience of sitting at the counter of at Masa, with only two other couples why your personal chef hands you some of the best sushi in the world is incredible, but there are other omakase places in NYC that offer a nearly equally amazing experience (especially if you go on a quiet Tuesday night) for 1/3 the price, but I'm very glad I had that counter experience at Masa.

I had a detailed discussion with a former colleague about this the other day. They're in the merge camp, and I'm in the "any code that actually makes it into the wild should have a linear history" (rebase) camp.

Merge commits have multiple parents which makes visual inspection confusing, and it makes it much harder to use git bisect which is a tool that can save many hours of painstaking manual work.

I clearly think that the rebase version is the correct approach, but I can see there are upsides and downsides for both. Sometimes for long lived branches I get merge commits in my feature / bugfix branches, but those are going to end up squash merged onto our release branch, so in the end the main thing I care about is the linearity of history in master/develop.

Combination of linear history and appropriate use of annotated tags for releases makes it way easier to see what actually happened (i.e. the intentionality). A merge based approach shows you what people were actually doing though.
Can you post the link in a comment? I think HN might have replaced the one you posted with a "canonical" one that requires a login.
I don't remember that at all but I do remember a time when using politicians to deregulate industry so said industry can rent-seek was called corporate welfare.
The headline is clickbait. Based on the article he possesed videos of one child (his cousin?) undressing and taking a shower (his production, by secretely recording), and videos of sexual content involving children.

The deepfake side of the story is mentioned and I'm sure it had impact to at least some level in the trial. But acting on that fact alone would be legal abuse itself, because who was abused when creating those deepfakes? 40 years is beyond ridiculous for the possesion of child sexual material, and a video of a child taking a shower. But that's 'murica I guess.
Yup, and I certainly have plenty of times. Most people don’t have the context to even know they should/can though, so a lot of crap still happens.

Also messy to do halfway through closing. Especially if you don’t want to have to deal with a lawsuit from the realtor.

Easier if you already have the brokers direct line of course. They’re the ones on the hook anyway, the realtors are just the ‘front’.
Discover plants, swap seeds, plan gardens, share knowledge
I think the sweet spot of company size for an IC software engineer is between 50 and 500. It's small enough to have autonomy, learn, and build good relationships with the people around you, while not getting overwhelmed by bureaucratic processes.

50-500 is also large enough to where you, ideally, don't have to worry about the company's runway, have work-life balance, get decent compensation and benefits. There's typically opportunities for upward mobility as the company scales if you want it.

I think I've finally come to peace with idea that's it's okay to be in tech and never work for FAANG.
It doesn't work, people don't want kids because of the culture. They're trained to become "sexually liberated" wage slaves and the few kids get sent to kindergarden at 6m.

Before trying I was also scared to death to have kids and thought it would ruin my life - spoiler it didn't.
I don't doubt that. I myself use it but the major problem that seems to remain unsolved for a while is that LLMs can't be blindly relied upon because they don't have any knowledge rather they mimic what knowledge might look like.

I find LLMs so much useful for myself because in some areas, I have developed expertise and even with a wrong LLM output, I can manually make few tweaks to make it work.

But same can't be said for an LLM bot meant for SAP or Netsuite that it'll guide a user reliably to a correct answer.

There you still need a real expert that's going to be way way slower than an LLM but with way way more higher accuracy rate in ballpark of 98.9% or above.

And that's where LLM with your own toolchain or rented toolchain doesn't make much sense. For many use cases. Yet.
Welcome to the Bay Area. It’s clearly starting to hit its peak insanity (this cycle) though.

Spectrum/shape of the spectral efficiency curve. Sure, you can get a vague color temperature match out of LED, but it's HARD to get a curve out of LED that looks at all like sunlight or like tungsten incandescents. And even the really good ones are noticeably deficient in reds. I can totally believe that if they're attempting to simulate a sunrise there's nothing like massive incandescents.
Deprecations such as mergemaster do not occur with point releases.
