But it is exactly the same thing!? Labeling margarine as butter would be misrepresenting what it is just like labeling whatever meat replacement they have as salami would be wrong.

Funniest thing is that since I strongly dislike salami, you would never see me buying the "fake" if it is supposed to be anything like the real thing. But I'm might be tempted by an alternative product that they may call whatever they want.

The thing with the meat replacement stuff is that they want to cheat on naming to get people to "try" by mistake. But in reality, what prevents their adoption is that they are not very good (when it's not just outright nasty) on top of being extremely expensive. I really don't understand how they want people to switch to those stuff when they are not competitively priced when you adjust for nutrition per $ without even talking about taste. Either greed is unreal in this sector or the production of those things is actually a less efficient process than eating animals and the ecological argument is moot.

Sure but the context of the discussion is people's opinion on the matter, not the state of current law.
It should be illegal to even propose this and it should be equalled to hate crime.

People who think this is okay, to the point that they want to enact this in law should be cast out of the society.
> I remember seeing here that his default system prompt is also optimized for oral conversations.

Voice2voice is great, but I find the way chatgpt constructs responses in oral conversations to be very soulless. It feels like I'm talking to the personification of a bland corporation. I'm not sure if it feels worse through voice because it sounds close to human, or if its the system prompt. I'd love to find a way to fix it.

Does anyone have any suggestions of a good system prompt to add to make the AI loosen up a bit?
The amount of time spent discussing simple things like font choice, button shape and placement could eat that much money rapidly.
Hi, I am the package maintainer for https://github.com/metis-os/hysp-pkgs (The default source that's shipped with hysp)

To address your concerns:
1. Yes, no portable toolchains or any other kinds of dependencies are required.

2. Each & every single binary is statically compiled. This is the core at philosophy of Hysp. A single binary that runs anywhere.

3. Currently, there's about 200 pkgs for x86_64 & arm64 each. The upstream source (https://github.com/Azathothas/Toolpacks) has over 400 for x86_64 & 300+ for arm64, which will slowly be added to Hysp-Pkgs.

4. As installing random binaries from random sources is not advisable due to security concerns, the pkg-source can be self-hosted by anyone and hysp can be configured to use that instead of the default source.
Yeah, it seems only comprised of picks that are in various stages of investigation, prosecution, etc.

None that just fizzled in legal ways.
Oh. Thanks for the tip. This might make me finally embrace powershell. I’ve been using WSL+zsh+fzf as a Windows CLI for continuity with day job Mac tools, but git CLI performance is only usable inside the WSL file system.
2010 was when they started using motors from other (cheap) brands like Renault for a lot of models on big scale. Before that you could drive your Mercedes up to like 400,000 km and more and still get money for it or at least sell it to development countries to be used as a - mostly reliable - taxi for example. Been there, done that. Nowadays getting a newer model to 200,000 km before its "end" is the exception rather than the norm. And that's just their cost-down strategy on the motors ...

I'm sorry, but this is why FAANG are such trash companies that can't achieve anything of substance. Their employees are too busy playing games to get anything done. This practice is like setting up a museum with priceless artifacts and explicitly saying to the night watchman "if you can get away with stealing from us you can have it, also you're probably going to get fired next quarter"

In any normal sized business this would be an absolute disaster. FAANG has to spend like triple on talent for people to be ok with this nonsense. Why not just treat people like people?
100% of all the departments they seem to be the ones who have the least amount of clue about the business, the product, etc.

At my current company we had a massive, make-it-or-break-it deliverable for the spring. It was literally all departments coming together for a whole year and trying to get this thing done on time.

All, but HR. All HR cared about was to make sure managers would pester their report to put their 3 annual goals in [random HR system] before [random day in March]. HR like to see people as interchangeable cogs but that's because that's what they are themselves.

> a random person on HN

You make a lot of assumptions about whom your talking to.
Many people simply cannot charge over night. Many reasons for this. For example :living in an apartment building with no private parking and no charging.
These tests are interesting to me as someone in the traffic congested Northeast US.

You can see cars with varying battery size x efficiencies competing similarly on the list. A variance of 40min on an 8-9hour trip isn't really that much considering I hit a 30min variance in a 90min trip around here due to traffic.

However in the US the problem you have is a much less mature charging network, especially for non-Tesla. An ideal future state is that EV fast chargers are as plentiful, well located, and closely spaced as gas stations.

Actual 150kW vs 350kW charge rates have never in practice been a problem for me versus fumbling with broken charging network apps, inoperable credit card readers, broken chargers, de-rated chargers, congested chargers, veering 10miles off the highway to find a charger, etc. Another factor is chargers being too far apart such that I need to take bathroom breaks in between rest stops that have chargers, and therefore double-stop. This would not happen with an ICE vehicle.

Ideal charging curves, conditioned battery, and max charge rates will be dividing factors in performance once the above is sorted out in US..
but then all the spoiled, overpaid programmers on hacker news would have to get jobs in the real world for actual competitive wages, rather than the current raising rivals cost to crush competitive startups monopoly maintaining strategy employed by companies making outsized profits by being a monopoly conduit for reaching people with advertising...............................................
Yes. I was editing my comment to say the same as you were writing your response!

In practice, I just type or say destinations and let the car figure out if, when, and where to supercharge.
> Because with XFS the answer to "oh no a power cut" was "lol, a bunch of files might be zeros. Figure out which ones."

Got bitten by that one once as well. I recall the XFS FAQ had something like in it like: "If you know it hurts, then don't do it."
Speed bumps are brutally effective, like I just experienced driving through spain and france. I also do not like them too much, as they punish everyone and some of them are kind of hidden (by design) and you do not want to hit them even with just 20 mph. So they do prevent speeding in rural areas. But there should be better solutions ..
Yea, but we're talking about Microsoft here. Why would you expect anything else?

I get the feeling people think MS is different now it has embraced open source.
Disagree. SWE in silicon valley or FAANG and similar companies for sure. Out of all software engineers in the US though, they are likely the minority statistically. You've got your IBM's, GE, John Deere, payroll software, accounting software, etc. Toiling away at some blue-chip F500 company in software does not compel the same total comp levels by any stretch. Its an order of magnitude difference. No bonuses, crappy healthcare coverage (like thousands out of pocket for childbirth), years with inflation outpacing any annual raise, no stock options/RSUs, etc.

Its funny how in forums like here on HN people comment about layoffs, PIP's before vesting of stocks, unfair labor practices, etc. and then tout those hypergrowth companies as well and join on the money train looking at leet code exercises to get in and comparing total comp numbers and stock grants.

> you can't easily make a small and stable tech company that wants sustainable business

There are many examples of companies that do this, Basecamp for example. There are also company structures (like a worker cooperative) that do not resemble the common S-Corp pyramid where all the profits rise to the few at the top. I've never heard of a startup or tech company go that route. As much as startups have these cool mission statements about changing the world, its the same capitalism as other industries.
Oooo gotya! That makes more sense. Thanks for the clarification.
Sorry, I don’t buy it at all. People are not rolling up to my kids’ daycare in F150/XC-90/Suburban/4Runner because of CAFE making smaller cars more expensive.

They are buying it because they like bigger cars, and the people that can’t afford bigger cars still want to sit up higher, hence the popularity of CRV/Rav4 type vehicles.
Complete guess: it works just fine for 99.9999% of users, but greater than (1-0.999999)% chance that it would break compatibility or have a bug. Anyone who would need the performance gain would know about specialized alternatives.

A typical ESP32 S3 nowadays comes with 4 to 8 MB of RAM. Very likely more. Already comes with bluetooth and Wifi for 5 to 10 USD.

Their interview process, while thorough, isn't failproof. Additionally, it primarily assesses candidates at entry, overlooking potential changes in performance that may emerge after a couple of years within the company.
Just checked and for my 24 year old truck in Mississippi I can get a new one for under $200 and it takes maybe 30 minutes to change. $4000 seems quite crazy to me.
Ptrace could an equivalent of what /proc was originally supposed to be, before it got repurposed for a bunch of sysctl-like purposes.
Lets not ignore the considerable effort they've spent in hacking companies and stealing proprietary information. (My last engagement was with a company that had a ton of information of interest to State sponsored actors.)

They have spent significiant resources in hoovering as much information as possible from companies that have data of interest.

Show HN: Libcluster Postgres Strategy for Elixir
hey hn, I’m Filipe, a developer at supabase

we have three projects using Elixir in a clustered setup. we’ve always used libcluster[0] to achieve it but ended up using multiple strategies. now we’ve converged into one approach for all our projects using Postgres as the coordinator.

we’re using Postgres LISTEN and NOTIFY commands with Postgrex as the system to propagate node addresses so they can connect plus we use it to send healtcheck pings to heal when required.

big thanks to https://twitter.com/gotbones for the libcluster library and https://twitter.com/kevinbuch_ for the inspiration

Yeah it's surprising to me how many people who were previously skeptical of IP laws in general, are all on board to use them to attack AI companies, advocating that a copyright holder should have the right to control exactly how their work can be used by any downstream system.

The nightmare scenario I see is, if this principle is established for AIs, it will not just be restricted to AIs. Human artists too will eventually be required to only create new commercial works under license, based on the artistic works they have been exposed to. The result will that it be impossible to be create art commercially except by working for a large content company with a large existing IP library and cross-licensing agreements with other rights holders.

And if you think this is an impossible scenario, ask yourself when lawyers, lobbyists and politicians have ever shrank from expanding legal rights for corporations at the expense of individuals, even when the vast majority of people would not agree to the expansion. Today's absurdity is tomorrow's legal reality, and the chance to fully control creative expression will be far too tempting to turn down.
I got confused because I thought it would set a background color. For text it's inverted and hence correct.
Hi, I am the package maintainer for https://github.com/metis-os/hysp-pkgs (The default source that's shipped with hysp)

To address your concerns:

1. Hysp allows making request to http-only sites, because hysp doesn't care where you host your binaries. As long as you have sha256sum/blake3sum of the binaries, and they match, hysp will work.

2. The default pkg source that ships with hysp, is hosted on github itself, where's there's no need to use http. HTTP is simply a fallback, and meant for maximum compatibility.

3. As installing random binaries from random sources is not advisable due to security concerns, the pkg-source can be self-hosted by anyone and hysp can be configured to use that instead of the default source.
It's naive to think that these decisions are made by HR, and not, your organistion's leadership — your building stuff set by the leadership, and the HR team are executing policy as set by the leadership.
Knowing starting battery temperature would go a long way to interpreting the results here. You could assume they all started the same, but it would be nice to know for sure.

Nowhere do they describe initial starting conditions for the batteries / vehicles besides saying 10% SOC at start.
I guess it is because after decades of use, grep has probably been fixed to handle lots of user cases that the new tools don´t handle because they haven´t found them yet.

Fake take.

No one believes this. Or at least no one who is both honest and intelligent.

Generative AI and the Microwave
I think they tested without preconditioning the battery. Teslas integrated nav and charging network are both designed to make that not happen on a road trip. Also, those at the top of the list are 800v instead of 400v. Which means you need to find a 800v charger, which is a whole other aspect of the issue. Lastly we don't know to what degree any of these cars are protecting battery longevity.

It’s because they are entirely manipulative, and usually have nothing to do with the actual recipe. The “context around the recipe” rarely is written by the person who put the work in to develop that recipe. It’s almost always content-farmed out or more recently, entirely generated by AI.

The only reason those blobs of text exist is to get you to look at more ads. Put more things in your head against your will, sell you more garbage, and manipulate your feelings.

If it wasn’t true, why are the recipes always at the bottom? Why not put the most valuable part right front and center? These websites have no respect for you and likely copy pasted the recipe anyways.
What are the lies?
your second example is particularly fascinating. Myxosporeans were basically once more complex animals that had gradually evolved towards simpler and simpler structures until they became unicellular organisms again. Henneguya zschokkei seems to have taken this to the extreme — going where not even bacteria ever go
You see the same kind of thinking here on HN all the time. There's a few generations of us that were brought up on a kind of teleological notion of technological progress, inspired by the insanely massive late 20th century advances in aerospace, then semiconductors, and computer science, and being brought up in a triumphalist west where the G7 had buried its economic and political foes etc. In that context, with a heavy dose of science fiction and a heap of ideology, it somewhat makes sense that there's people who see these kinds of things (fusion in 5 years! AGI right around the corner!) as not only posisble, but inevitable.

But the magic of Moore's law in transistor technology was/is accomplished through insanely hard nuts and bolts engineering and science by dedicated smart people. It's not investors and techbros and writers and pundits that make this stuff happen. It's just grit and hard work and continuous incremental improvements.

There's no magic that makes technology grow in exponential terms. Moore's law doesn't apply to anything but transistors. "Progress" is not inevitable. Technology doesn't change the world -- people do. Practical fusion energy doesn't happen just because Altman's friends sprinkle cash all over it and talk it up.

Anyways, yeah, just ranting to agree with you. I am getting so sick of this crap.
This doesn’t account for going on a road trip during a popular time. During the holidays my socials are full of people queuing up to an hour to get a spot at a Tesla charger to then start charging.
Then thr wider economy can decide if it's good or not, and choose alternatives. The only thing that would really stifle consumer choice is ip laws that could just claim the entire solution of Figma is off limits
The GUI I use (weirdly called "Git Extensions") does not hide the underlining commands: when you perform an operation it presents you with a dialog that shows the command line. You can inspect them, copy the command text, or cancel the operation if the command does not look right to you.

For some operations it's more that one command, so you are present with more than one dialog.

For me it's not just a convenience, but a learning tool about more obscure Git operations and their parameters. Several times when I found the documentation obscure I would just make Git Extensions generate a command, and it helped me to understand a command -- or discover one.

Having said that, I find Git command-line interface hard to memorize and not very consistent/logical, so I prefer to use the GUI when possible. And you cannot beat it for partial commits or resets.
If that’s what you do, it’ll give you a generic recipe.

Deal-breaker?

Is there evidence that programmers who use [] simply cannot ever learn to use .get()? Once they have picked up the incorrect approach, their brains are simply broken and they can never learn that a different solution exists that is better used in certain situations?

It would obviously be risky to hire someone who uses [] if that's the case.

If not, though, it seems like it doesn't provide much of a clue as to the person's ability to perform in a technical role.
Too bad they only have these high-spec cars. Many small and/or cheaper EVs barely support more than 100 KW charging.
It appears they purposefully did not precondition any of the batteries. In fact, they don't even mention preconditioning. Why not?

On top of that, it appears that they conducted the tests using only CCS adapters, which in the US are now being dumped by every manufacturer in favor of NACS adapters, i.e., what Tesla uses. NACS isn't even mentioned. Why not?

I routinely take road trips on two long-range Teslas, and typically 1000+ miles/hour when the battery is preconditioned and has no more than 20-25% left.

In practice, I just type or say a destination and the car figures out if, when, and where it should charge to minimize travel time, automatically preconditioning the battery on its own. My usual experience is that I arrive, go to the bathroom, grab a drink and/or a snack, come back to the car, and voilà, the car has added 120-180 miles of range.

EDITS: Added comment about NACS.
I agree that this is what Apple rewards, but your suggestion about ChatGPT sounds to me like an argument for the award of "best thing in the world with an app", not an argument for ChatGPT winning the app store awards.
Agree - the ChatGPT app is nothing special and even has issues with layout constraints.

Not sure why this is news, ChatGPT is an interesting service but their app is barely a thin layer over their API. So why would it deserve the mention?
