This description is wrong on so many levels.

Amphetamine is primarily absorbed through the plasma membranes and not DAT since it’s lipid soluble.

Dopamine does not and thus relies on DAT. By inhibiting DAT (as both amphetamine and Modafinil do), you increase extracellular dopamine.

Next, DAT does not “transport amphetamine around the brain”. It only transports it from the post synaptic cleft into the cell.

Also Modafinil is a much weaker DAT inhibitor than amphetamine itself as far as we know.

Lastly, drugs don’t “antagonize” other drugs. That word is a specific term used for the action on the receptor level.

The dopaminergic effects of Modafinil aren’t well known and are thought to be mild. It’s simply misinformation to claim that modafinil was somehow blocking the effects of amphetamine on the dopamine receptors.
Yes, like the peace they've brought to Middle Eastern countries like Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, etc.

Do you enjoy living in the free part of world that you can access hacker news, protected by US? you do realize that by fighting communism and dictatorships, sometimes grey areas appear, and lives are lost. Only naive people sees world as black and white. Again, if you don't like it, move to one of those dictatorship countries where there is no freedom of speech.

Yes, if you don't like the US approach to securing freedom and democracy for the free world, go move to a dictatorship. Most of the current free world is enjoying the US's protection.
Is there a way to directly use these developments to already write a reasonable subset of C/C++ for simpler usecases (basically doing some compute and showing the results on screen by just manipulating pixels in a buffer like you would with a fragment/pixel shader) in a way that's portable (across the three major desktop platforms, at least) without dealing with cumbersome non-portable APIs like OpenGL, OpenCL, DirectX, Metal or CUDA? This doesn't require anything close to full libc functionality (let alone anything like the STL), but would greatly improve the ergonomics for a lot of developers.

It does operate that way, whether you want to believe it or not. Every political decision is influenced or directly related to the ideology of those in power.

Funny how feelings are brought up and mocked when it’s about the disenfranchised. Meanwhile, the ruling elite gets their fee fees hurt by socialists and it’s how it should be.

Strange, isn’t it?
I got a renewal notice a few months ago, and they wanted to raise my already pretty high rent by like 15%. It was higher than what they charge for brand new apartments, not even counting leasing incentives. I made a counter-offer and got told 'we don't negotiate'. The propublica article (https://www.propublica.org/article/yieldstar-rent-increase-r...) talks about how exactly this lack of negotiation / removing the human element lets them drive up rents across the board.

It's insane, and toxic.
If prices went up and occupancy went down, it would be difficult to claim otherwise. Why let units sit empty?
The collusion here is what, that they all agreed to use the same software?

What if I create software that recommends rates to charge, and I market it. Proven to get you up to 20% or more extra rental income! Then everyone just happens to use my software, and the rates are then 'recommended' to everyone based on an analysis of what the market will bear. No collusion. Is a law broken in this case? Or is the market just lacking in competition.

The software isn't making landlords do anything, it's recommending an optimal market price. Is it any different than a quote from a commodities futures exchange being used to price corn at the local grocery store?
This is why you check out decent datacenters. A good DC is already BUILT above the 500 year or 1000 year flood plain, has N+1 generators, and tornadoes are not present in all locations.
That's wild. So was it some temperature inversion near the surface of the water or something, where the air was cooler below than above?

What a puerile defense. The medium of collusion is irrelevant to the intent of the laws, as is its novelty.
Wouldn't you expect a mind that is able to trick other minds, to be work better than at least average. It seems like it's self selecting.
It's like saying marathon runners are less prone to obesity than other athletes. To be a professional marathon runner, you probably start with better than average genetics.
The no-code serverless platform I built achieves this behind the scenes via a real-time CRUD API: https://saasufy.com/

The key is to perform updates on fields individually. Normally this would not be viable using HTTP due to headers/overheads (too many fields per resource to dedicate an entire HTTP request per-field) but it is viable over WebSockets as each frame is very lightweight and can even be batched. Also, being able to tie together the life of the connection to the subscription is handy to ensure that no real-time updates can be missed.

I built a chat app with authentication + access control with it (you can log in with GitHub at the bottom):

https://saasufy.github.io/chat-app/

Only 120 lines of HTML markup (web components), no custom JS.

Short-term leases are now illegal, so everyone stopped doing it (just kidding, it created a huge black market).

Harder than it used to be though.

Most of that cost is literally coming from sms outside the us though. The rates for us sms are much lower than almost anywhere else.
It's easy to stand this stuff up initially, but the real work is in scaling, automating, testing and documenting all of that, and many places don't have the people, skills or both to do all of that easily.

Also, with EKS, you get literally all of this (except Cilium and Longhorn, if you need that, which you don't if you use vpc-cni and eks-csi), in ~8 minutes, and it comes with node autoscaling, tie-ins into IAM and a bunch of other stuff for free. This is perfect for a typical lean engineering team that doesn't really do platform stuff but need to out of necessity and/or a platform team that's just getting ramped up on k8s.

You also don't need to test your automation for k8s upgrades or maintain etcd with EKS, which can be big time-savers.

(FWIW I love Kubernetes and have made courses/workshops of exactly this work)
Counter-example.

Have used literate programming for a real-life
freelance project a year ago. Am using it for both
my private projects and current freelance projects.

The manual can be broken down into four parts or
volumes depending on size:

I. User's Guide
II. User's Reference Manual
III. Maintainer's Guide
IV. Maintainer's Reference Manual

Don't get this wrong, updating the screenshots in the
User's Guide is annoying and a pain.
Over 60% of my time go into writing soft
documentation for the users.
This seems to be the best way to have hard evidence
of the gathered requirements.
It shows what the user actually faces.
The user stories write themselves.
This is the place to put assumptions and data-flow
requirements that the human being in front of the
tool has to know.
The customer last year loved it.

Testing becomes easy.
Just follow the pictures in the User's Guide.
That's your checklist.
In last year's project we immediatly found
differences in using the application on iOS and
Android, just because the customer was on iOS and
could play around with everything immediatly [0].
The first working prototype was done in a week.
Iteration was fast in a tight loop with the
customer.
Basically, live coding.

Source code, entity-relationship diagrams made with
Dia diagram, data-flow diagrams and even some math
typesetting go into the Maintainer's Guide.
All those hairy assumptions forced upon you by third
party libraries, external APIs, and external ABIs
go in big fat red boxes.
Ongoing maintenance check-lists, build steps, and
deployment issues also live here.

LaTeX makes it look beautiful.
It is, honestly, a joy to read and nice to look at.
Just like with research papers decent pictures make
it better.

The reference guides are basically lookup-tables.
There can even be an index and a glossary.

The PDFs can even be stored in git(1).
I know, I know, don't store binaries in git.
But it archives the project well [1a,1b].
You already have the screenshots.
You can pull old versions out.
All the hidden footguns can be called out in the
text.

I dont think it’s quite blue book, because it’s personalised to that property, right? It’s probably the personalisation that really differentiates it and I suspect it’s models are also design to show maximum value rather than average price, so they move the market, rather than just reporting on it.
Makes me wonder whether the more competent militaries of the world take this kind of stuff into account when considering whether they're safely out of enemy radar range.
Yeah, going all-in on WinFS, DWM, and .NET is a big risk budget. I remember people theorizing that Vista (and later, some Mono-heavy revision of GNOME) were slow because of using .NET to replace C++ apps, but I don't remember if it was proven or not.
I'd be happy if they just sold it.
lol, Apple is so "innovative". It only takes them to be last to implement something like that. And USB-C too.
It is very neat for the price - the spectral resolution from Cesium Iodide is less than Sodium Iodide by more than half and it's a small crystal .. but it does pack a lot of fun into a small package.

If you're in the earth sciences, I linked a data sheet for the crystal: https://www.gammadata.se/assets/Uploads/CsITl-and-Na-data-sh...

There's a reddit community: https://old.reddit.com/r/Radiacode/

and a desktop interface: https://downloads.radiacode.com/EN/RC-101_Windows.pdf

with a few OS choices.

For semi serious use I'd want to continuously download full spectra with a (?) 2 to five second window (subject to understanding how well it counts, subsamples, saturates) and pool those spectra with GPS data to build up NASVD type "typical background" fingerprints to differentiate against to boost outlying signals.

I'd like to see the gadget user groups pooling their data also.

First thoughts on browsing the manual is that spectra export is a UI interface driven one at a time operation so someone would want to get into the guts of that and determine how to continuosly transfer to a server | home PC | nearby phone to retransmit, etc.

This, of course, might be in the reddit forum or Telegram group.

I might get a few of these as Xmas presents for a few folk I know that work with the bigger geophysical survey toys to get some cross over happening.

Apple also stated they would work to add encryption to the RCS spec, poking Google in the eye with their proprietary model. Of course this might not ever happen, but it's still fun to see big companies taking jabs at each other.
Well the problem is that with these software systems, we have already answered your question. If we do not change something (after seeing this!) then we have allowed 'dumb' collusion. Where these landlords can profit exceedingly and then claim complete innocence.

The landlords see their rent prices increase in their checks each month, it is not as if they have not noticed increased profit over the last years due to this.

So if this is allowed, we will start to see increased centralization and then passive acquiescence to gross profit.
Ask HN: I hate remote work, should I leave?
I'm working on a team with awesome coworkers, on the most exciting and technologically advanced project that I'm likely ever to work on, the pay is pretty good... And I'm miserable.

I'm the rare person who like to work from the office (some of the time). I like seeing my coworkers, learning about their lives, and enjoying war stories. I'm not getting that where I work currently since it's full remote. This normally wouldn't be two bad, but I didn't get to see folks during the pandemic and I've been working in this position for two years and haven't seen a single team member in person since I started. All I get is seeing people during standup, but there's no time to dilly dally there.

I'm caught between a rock and a hard place here, either I stay and work on the coolest project ever, or I leave get a pay cut, work on a boring project, but see people again. (I've been told team meetups, even once a year, are not possible)

Using a throw away account so that my coworkers don't find out I'm contemplating leaving. (My regular HN profile is my LDAP and I have a very unique last name)
there's nothing about being bootstrapped vs venture backed that lets everyone know, a priori, whether a given project will be successful or not. something like 80% of startups fail within the first two years.

>LLMs can't generally reverse implications, that's what the paper says

No that's not what the paper says.
It says training won't immediately store this information in a way as to make it reversible.

Let's get one thing straight. This is a common problem for human learning as well. Anyone who has used Anki for language learning will tell you that if you just train on target language word on the front and native language word on the back, you will fail the reverse unless you specifically train for that.

This is specifically a problem of recall. Not a problem of making the logical inference. If you ask the human language learner immediately he has learnt the new word for the reverse direction, he will obviously tell you the correct word.

But later he may not recall the reverse even if he remembers the original. Again this is a problem of recall rather than the ability to make logical inferences.

In the same vein, if you give the LLM the original direction in context and immediately ask the reverse, it will correctly tell you. It can make the logical inference.
So if these landlords all got together every Monday and discussed detailed pricing / sales info that would be 100% legal?

What would be the purpose of this meeting other than to make implicit pricing agreements?

Does anti-trust law explicitly require a written / verbal agreement or does doing lots of things that looks like agreeing (without actually agreeing) count?
"Why" is a question that is aims to answer the cause of a property or effect.

Why do apples fall from trees? Gravity.
Why does gravity exist? Because matter bends space.
Why does matter bend space? We don't know yet.

Ultimately, any X is either caused or uncaused. Not "X=Y", but either "Y=>X" or "X exists" - the latter being uncaused.

This is pretty basic philosophy.
If you need the gas plants ready to dispatch at any moment, can you still say you are running on 100% renewables?

We took a substantially different approach with seL4;
its model for managing kernel memory is seL4’s main
contribution to OS design. Motivated by the desire to
reason about resource usage and isolation, we subject
all kernel memory to authority conveyed by capabili-
ties (except for the ﬁxed amount used by the kernel to
boot up, including its strictly bounded stack).
"

I guess I should've said seL4 took capabilities to the extreme.
This kind of “price discovery” (for labor in this case) is perfectly legal. Plenty of markets have “liquid” pricing and don’t need vendors to provide discovery, yet corresponding cartels don’t emerge on this fact alone.

What made a difference in cases like the Silicon Valley anti-poaching regime was direct anti-competitive action: Hiring away Apple Engineer A would be good for me, but I won’t because I’ll get an angry phone call from Steve Jobs and face potential retribution.

The crux of a case like this is whether RealPage was merely facilitating market-making price discovery (good all on its own for maximizing landlord profits—legally!) or was explicitly or implicitly creating incentives for landlords to act against their individual interest in favor of the collective interest.
As someone on the UX team for a product that just uses locks: LOL. Ok, but the suck index is pretty high.
> Where these landlords can profit exceedingly and then claim complete innocence.

Define 'exceedingly.'

> So if this is allowed, we will start to see increased centralization and then passive acquiescence to gross profit.

The market is already fairly efficient, except where laws like rent control forbid market efficiency.

The issue is that while demand exceeds supply of housing in metro areas, the cost to acquire/rent will tend towards the maximum amount a renter/buyer can bear. On the other hand, when supply exceeds demand, it tends towards the cost of construction.

This software just makes the market more efficient in the same direction it was already heading.

More houses solves this. Suing the pricing tool for existing does not.
Executive bonuses will be good this year.

Yes, that's correct. Companies originally flocked to Delaware because it was relatively easy to incorporate there, and then the volume of registrations begat the volume of case law, which begat more registrations because of the favorable legal environment.

My point was that it's not just because it's trendy or a matter of conformity. It is a risk-management strategy.
It means if a company were to use a third party to collude on wages, it's colluding.
So it turns out in the last year I have sold a remodel problem house and bought another all the way across the country. We could drill down and ask why my sold house tilers were so awful. To the point I paid to have it all Boschhammered up and replaced with engineered wood. Delaying the move. How about not. Why would you point to the dysfunction of another unrelated industry as being worse to justify the stupidity of the original topic here?

Old house sold for cash, "new" house bought for cash.

All too eerily similar to my experience in both a Seattle and a San Francisco apartment. The whole thing reeked of illegal collusion.
If you want something that looks like a table, while still benefiting from not having to download 8GB of Parquet in order to run the query, you can get one using a CTE:

with midjourney_messages as (

list_transform(
generate_series(0, 2),
n -> 'https://huggingface.co/datasets/vivym/midjourney-messages/resolve/main/data/' ||
format('{:06d}', n) || '.parquet'
)
)
)
select sum(size) as size from midjourney_messages;

Or you can create a view:

create view midjourney_messages as

This is how dynamic pricing for event tickets works. Everyone uses the same software which prices tickets across all secondary and primary markets. One way to create artificial scarcity to inflate prices is not offer tickets or apartments for rent. Another way is to initially charge outrageous prices so that a less outrageous price is more appealing. Like a parent paying outrageous prices for a Taylor Swift concert months in advance insure that their child can see the show for their birthday people looking for apartments are forced at the artificially inflated prices because that location has their employment and social connections.

> You don’t!

You’re right, but I’m not sure wrapping it in a self calling function is any better to me. It feels like a lot of contortionism to just echo strings.
A decade ago when I worked at an agency, we had a policy of having two branches of any given project: an internal one, and a version with "gray-boxes.css" applied. It's too difficult for humans to separate visually polished from functional and finished.
I hate TikTok as much as the next guy, but this feels like a manufactured controversy. You can always find a small minority of people advocating for extremism on any social media platform, and I don't see any evidence to suggest that TikTok has some major Al-Qaeda problem that the other platforms don't. A lot of this feels like The Guardian trying to cover their asses, since they were the ones that published the letter and only took it down yesterday. It would be pretty infuriating if this sparks some massive censorship campaign while mainstream companies get off scot-free.

Pilot here - it's legal to fly at 12,500 in an unpressurized aircraft indefinitely. See https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-14/chapter-I/subchapter-F.... Cabin pressurization is set to a lower altitude, but that's not for a legal requirement. It's just nicer to be at higher pressurization.

There are many more examples. Yes there are other elements but they are all sitting on top of this kind of thinking. There's a reason so much of military activity is happening in the Middle East and it's not because everyone there is a pacifist. There is a serious blind spot in extremist thinking that is incapable of reflecting on self-accountability. Their tone is typically and predictably righteous indignation with absolutely no fault on their side, while at the same time demonizing and dehumanizing the other side. At the end of the day it is their religion and their unwavering commitment to it which is blinding them.
