That may also mean we have fewer shared interests. For example, new semiconductor fabs might benefit all AIs by making compute more abundant, but occupy prime farming land and water resources that humans want to use for growing crops.
Mercurial has a better user interface, certainly, though I've warmed to git otherwise. It turns out I really do like being able to rebase, squash, and delete branches (though I keep hearing about bookmarks, so maybe that's obsolete), even if the cli is less friendly.

I imagine that wouldn't be very useful, since most production traffic is encrypted (e.g. TLS) and key negotiations necessitate a per-client cipher stream.
While I do think it is unlikely that you can deduct “lost profits” by not releasing film, there are some interesting ways expenses of a film can be depreciated. See this form:

https://www.irs.gov/forms-pubs/about-form-8866

It is the only thing on the IRS website I could find about this and it does not tell the whole picture of the special depreciation method for films. The fact that this form can have you pay interest to the IRS if you incorrectly predict income reinforces the idea that you can’t deduct “lost profits”.

Biometrics aren't always reliable, the article mentioned this anecdote:

Another example comes from a city hospital where creating a death certificate requires a doctor's digital thumbprint. Unfortunately for that hospital, there is a single doctor that has thumbs that the digital reader manages to scan, so the doctor ends up signing all the death certificates for that hospital regardless of whose patient the deceased was.
I'd say it's largely due to the coming of age during the Internet era where there is much more visibility into the thoughts and inner workings of our political leaders and public institutions.

Plus some notable milestones:

2001 Patriot Act - very unpatriotic and anti-american

2008 mortgage crisis - huge bailouts for large corps, nothing for regular joes

2016 election of Trump - reality TV president, collapse of "norms"

2020+ covid response - unprepared and poorly handled, contradictions and backpedaling abound

It's just logic. A cat has infinite ways of exercising on its own and actually most cats do just that, so it's pareto principle to think about "playing fetch" as simply convenient way of exercising a chase something that incidentally involves a human throwing things rather than birds or mouse.

A dog however simply does not do things on its own much, dogs are maybe even more social than humans and live in packs (dog owner is de facto pack leader). Play is more social for them. Take out peer/leader to play with and half the excitement is gone. Dogs generally would not consider mechanical ball dispenser equally exciting of a partner

This has less to do with pretending to be medical and more to do with physical security. It's a cash business; think through how you'd rob a dispensary. If the employee escapes and you're the only customer in the room, you aren't taking hostages. The "examination room" is a mantrap.

It's usually the scaling. If you're on 27" at 4k, you probably have some scaling enabled, anywhere from 1.25x to 2x, so less stuff fits on the screen. Since less stuff fits on the screen, less stuff gets rendered and performance should be better.

At 42" 4k, there's probably no scaling, so more stuff fits on the screen.

A flashlight [1].

I did buy something last year on Black Friday, a Fender CC-140SCE guitar, but it had problems and I returned it. After I sent it back I realized that one of the problems it has should be, as far as I can tell, actually impossible and regretted not noticing that earlier so I could have examined it closely to see what the hell was going on.

Here is the seemingly impossible problem. Maybe someone here can figure out how this could happen.

On the first string all the notes were right except at the 13th fret. Here's what you are supposed to get at the 12th-15th frets and what you actually got:

12 13 14 15
E F F# G <-- should be this
E G F# G <-- this is what it actually was

When you play a note you press down the string behind a fret. That is supposed to result in a section of string suspended between the top of that fret and the saddle which is the correct length and tension to play the correct note.

If the fret is too low or another fret between that fret and the saddle is too high the string might end up suspended on a fret closer to the saddle, and so you get the note for that closer fret instead which will be higher.

Here's a diagram showing why I think this should be impossible for it to do what mine was doing [2].

Ignore fret 14 for a moment. For fret 13 to play a G it has to be below the dotted line labeled "G Line".

Now look at fret 14. It plays the correct note, F#. To do so it must be above the G Line.

But then when you play fret 13 the string necessarily has to go above the G Line to get over fret 14, and from there should pass above fret 15. It should play fret 14's note, F#, not fret 15's G.

We should then get on 12-15 E F# F# G.

If fret 14 were low enough for 13 to play G, 14 would have to be below the G Line, and so 14 would also play G, giving is E G G G on 12-15.

In general, no matter what is going on with fret heights, moving one fret closer to the saddle should never result in a lower note, and moving one step away from the saddle should never result in a higher note.

And thus I'm completely baffled by that guitar.

> although I'm not sure you'd have any control over the kernel threads

You don't have control from the application, but if you're really trying to get the most performance from your networking heavy application, you want to set up your server where the NIC rx and tx queues are cpu pinned, and the application thread that processes any given socket is pinned to the same cpu that the kernel is using for that socket. Then there's no cross cpu traffic for that socket (if all else goes well).

Hopefully all the memory used is NUMA local for the CPU and the NIC as well. That gets trickier with multiple socket systems, although some NICs do have provisions to connect to two PCIe slots so they can be NUMA local to two sockets.

> We have already restricted access to our microchips to China specifically and Russia through broad sanctions.

LOL and how is that working?
Similar mechanism as your attic noises. There's a giant metal plate on the bottom of the thing, so all the heat generated while it's supercharging (in a very cold environment) causes that 'snap' which makes a loud noise. Same thing happens if you've ever heated up a thin metal baking sheet. It'll 'snap' from one position to another and make a horrible racket.

Same thing apparently happens if you are heavy on regenerative braking when descending a mountain pass. Cold air, plus 50kW+ of regen braking is similar to just supercharging the car.
Unfortunately I have a vivid memory of the opposite: driving an extremely decrepit old car through the south in July, had to crank the heat to max to try to direct the heat away from the engine. No AC in the car, naturally.
What is human-level intelligence is a normative and philosophical question, which means it will not be resolved in some objective manner. There's no requirements for us to know, there's only requirements for us to propose in the form of norms.

The only approach we will be able to claim objectively can produce systems with human-level intelligence is procreation.
Amusing, you're one of the few remaining people who still buy this. Watch how his values go over the next few weeks.

For example, his PR has arranged a trip to the Gaza / Israel border next week, where he'll meet and shake hands with Benjamin Netanyahu, so then he can say "see? I love Jews, please big ad dollars, come back". This was not a trip arranged a month ahead, the way you normally do this. No, this was hastily arranged in the aftermath of the big ad 𝕏-odus from a week ago.

During the interview you're citing, I'm sure Elon believed he "values his values" over money. Totally. But then when Twitter topples down, and threatens to drag with it also Tesla and specifically his ownership of Tesla stock (his Tesla debt collateral is TSLA), then it gets "real". And suddenly he goes quiet, and forgets his values. This keeps happening, and he never learns apparently.

Let me put this in simpler meme terms, the way he would enjoy:

- Elon: "I'll say what I want to say, and if this results in losing money, so be it!"

- Big advertisers: *Pull out.*

- Elon: Wait. Not like this.

Advanced NICs can do bulk TLS encryption... probably other encryption if you work with the manufacturer. See the work Netflix CDN has done, at high bitrates, memory bandwidth is a major bottleneck for them, eliminating the memory reads and writes to do TLS in software (user level or kernel level) allowed them to hit much higher speeds.

The insanity was to abandon the advantage they had with VB/COM, in order to challenge Java on its own ground. They threw away the baby with the bathwater. The C# pivot also slowed down their desktop efforts pretty dramatically, doubling the blow.

They were lucky Sun squandered the opportunity they had engineered with Java, focusing on the hardware side and missing the boat on browser, virtualization and services. If Sun had bought Netscape and then focused on building something like Azure, instead of fighting the inevitable commoditization of server hardware, they would have eaten Ballmer's lunch.

Right now (and for the past couple of years) it has been mostly music but also still some more interesting tools to play with. Currently making a set of super realistic traffic lights for my youngest including pedestrian crossing and automatic cycle influencing (road coil pickup to detect car presence in front of the lights) for his model cars. Green wave, the works.

I've mostly stopped writing up the projects, but still have a bunch of posts pickled that I probably should finish.

> would that be hard to achieve?

Yes. Video memory runs on a substantially wider bus than system memory; the connectors that'd be required to make it replaceable would be extraordinarily expensive -- to the extent that it'd probably be cheaper to build the cards with their maximum complement of memory to begin with.
Their FAQ says you can download again your purchases: https://help.qobuz.com/en/articles/10166-can-i-re-download-m...

No Qobuz for me it seems. They don’t want my money for some reason.
What? AMD has the Z1 extreme that pulls something like 17 watts and can pull a GeForce 1650 level of graphics and decent CPU performance in a device the same size.

I was reading somewhere that zen4c may beat arm at power efficiency but time will tell when the laptops chips drop.

I do think it's cool having another CPU architecture out there everyone supports. I really want to see some decent open RISC V stuff gain more support but I fear that won't be for a few years.
The model is the instance because the instance is what is being used at inference time. The training simply produces some set of weights.

Open source would mean someone could see and run the model code locally/independently to create an instance. For an LLM, this is much less insurmountable of an issue in terms of resources needed.

It really seems to me that at least for healthcare the solution is just to go back to paper and then just take the paper and do data entry on it after it's out of the workflow on a daily or bidaily basis or something.

Honestly I'm also going to go out on a limb and guess that if most of the EHR portals screens were replaced with flat org files things would also work better.

Isn't this the one DMA feature actually supported on consumer GPUs?

I know it's not possible for NICs to directly write data into GPU Memory unless one uses Quadro or data center cards, but loading stuff from nvme drives into the GPU without involving host memory should be possible on all recent GPUs.

You mean Vega. Volta is a Nvidia arch.

Vega's marketing pushed Nvidia to make what is ending up to be the best product series they will ever make: series 10. That isn't much of a joke, it scared the shit out of Nvidia, and they blinked.

Vega was too late in the pipeline to stop, and Raja was ultimately let go for his role in the whole thing. He refused to start making more gamer-friendly cards, and was obsessed with enterprise compute/jack of all trades cards.

Immediately afterwards was a pivot towards a split arch, allowing multiple teams to pursue their intended markets.

Its why AMD won against Nvidia. Nvidia still has no real answer to AMD's success, other than continuing to increase card prices and making ridiculously large chips that have poor wafer yields. Nvidia won't even have working chiplets until series 60 or 70, while AMD already has them in a shipping product.
> Wouldn't this impact the performance of the GPU?

It isn't a super high performance GPU to begin with, so the narrower bus is unlikely to make much of a difference.
Or to implement optimized container images built with best security pratices. That’s the point of his argument btw.
It is preferable for users. Mostly they don't ever upgrade.

However, if you want to create an actual business, if you want to quit your day job, if you want to make a career out of this, then it's a good idea to start thinking about things from a business perspective.

I know this is HN, lover of all things free, a self-selecting group that treat tiny purchases like they're buying a house, but the key to building an actual functional sustainable business is to make business like decisions.

Part of that is pricing. Take something like this, where the price is completely arbitrary. Less than 10k for 2k users is $5 per user. If the product is $2 more then revenue jumps 40%.

One-and-done sales means you never get ahead. Every year is harder sales. Whereas Annual subscriptions means you build on a growing foundation. Conversely Upgrades just waste your time dreaming up features nobody wants or needs, and the market just gets smaller.

Sure, offering value to users is good. Offering value to customers is better. Making the business sustainable (so it exists even if 0 new sales) is the best model for both customers and the business.

So yeah, pricing matters.
That's lovely. Question: what is your take on that perfect pitch can not be learned by adults? Relative is relatively (hah!) easy, but absolute is very hard.

No, my YouTube usage as stayed the same.

I pay $15.40/month for YouTube Premium and it's a very good investment (better than Netflix, Max or Amazon Prime -- two of those I get for free). There's so much more independent content (not movies or TV shows) on YouTube on subject matters that I'm actually interested in. Also I get to download videos without using YT downloaders.

The biggest use case for me is actually music streaming on my phone in the background. I don't have a separate Spotify account because all the music I actually listen to is on YouTube.

That said, I can see why folks using the free tier might watch less YouTube less.
