> you are asserting fundamental physics prevents it from happening?

The energy density of batteries vs fuels is the current limitation. We don't know if this problem can ever be solved. A business cannot gamble on some magical hopes and dreams.

> within 30 years the massive airliners will be replaced with 20MW or so battery electrics

And how much will those 20MW batteries weigh?

With the current lithium battery technology, you would need a 7,167 metric ton battery to store the same amount of energy as 150 tons of jet fuel, which is typical for a long haul passenger jet.
There’s a new crop of PaaS products that aim to provide a layer of sanity on top of cloud providers (e.g. Aptible). Might be a good fit for you.
Lower pilot costs are unlikely any time soon. The FAA might eventually allow single pilot operation for some cargo flights, but it's just not going to happen for passenger airliners larger than an air taxi. The routine flying operations can be automated to an extent, but nothing on the horizon will allow for automated failure management. Two experienced pilots are the bare minimum to handle the workload of major in-flight emergencies.
And even if further advances in ML can improve the "writing quality", overall quality is a much more multidimensional thing, and being able to produce a convincing-sounding review (formatted correctly, talks about actual content within the review, etc) is not the same as giving a useful one. As another comment in this subthread noted, if the author feels that an LLM-generated review is worthwhile, they can feed it to one themselves—and it's entirely possible that a specially-trained LLM could give some halfway decent reviews of some basic things like spelling and grammar, missing information or sections, that sort of thing, simply based on previous article drafts and their reviews.

We should not be predicating our concerns about LLM-generated content solely on its "quality", because ultimately, the problem with it is that it is generic. I think it unlikely that it will have the ability to produce a genuine and thoughtful critique of a journal article until and unless there are significant breakthroughs, possibly even to the level of achieving AGI or something like it. Even using a more-advanced review-specific LLM like I describe above more widely does present serious concerns, because it runs the risk of suppressing articles that deviate from the "norm" in ways that the LLM doesn't have any way to appreciate, but which can present the findings better or even make the science better.

Some friendly advice to OP:

As you can see from the above (perfectly reasonable) reply, positioning on price isn't the most effective means here because anyone using this for software that makes money cares primarily about your robustness and accuracy as a service.

By robustness I'm not just talking uptime, but more "If I give this person money today how to do I know they'll be around tomorrow, they could disappear and I'm burning time calling and testing a new API"

I think you're actually doing a good job on this by showing on the homepage that you've been running this for over a decade.

So in launching your new paid add on, I think you'll have some success getting existing customers to upgrade, but in attracting new customers, I think you should position different than cost, maybe things that other geolocation services might not have.

For instance.... some users of your service may be using it because it's less intrusive visually than the browser based location sharing API.... but there might be a subset of customers where they're trying to keep the balance of getting location vs usability right and would opt to use the browser based API as a fallback... perhaps you offering a confidence score along with results might help? (On your backend this could be based on searching multiple ip DBs in parallel, matching locations means higher confidence, or you could get fancy with triangulation latency).

I think the reason it works is that it forgets its instructions after certain number of repeated words and then it just becomes the regular "complete this text" mode and not chat mode, and in "complete this text" mode it will output copies of text.

Not sure if it is possible to prevent this completely, it is just a "complete this text" model underneath afterall.

Yes, but its not a change to the model architecture, so you can actually subtract out the base SDXL model, merge in any existing SDXL checkpoint, and get an Turbo version of the existing checkpoint..

(In ComfyUI, this just takes loading all three checkpoints -- turbo, base, and the target one -- and using a ModelMergeSubtract node to subtract base from turbo, to get the "turbocharger" alone, and a ModelMergeAdd to add the turbocharger to the target checkpoint.)
We need decently designed environments where running stuff is trivial. It's not practical to expect the same person to be able to deal with both all the bullshit that comes from making the spaghetti and all the bullshit that comes from making it adhere to the wall.
I think this is more likely to be the case that Hybrids are dominated by Toyota/Lexus. See:

> Overall, hybrids have 26 percent fewer problems than cars powered by internal combustion engines (ICE). Some standouts include the Lexus UX and NX Hybrid and the Toyota Camry Hybrid, Highlander Hybrid, and RAV4 Hybrid.

and:

> Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs)... have 146 percent more problems than ICE vehicles. Still, there are PHEVs that buck that trend, including standouts such as the Toyota RAV4 Prime
I apologize. I was honestly astonished.
> Maybe this explains a bit why Toyota is on top in the reliability ranking. They are very reasonable cars. Would I buy one if I had more money? Hell, no!

Maybe if you pay enough for the car that dealer service drops off a loaner, picks up your car, then drops off your car and picks up the loaner with minimal interaction, a less reliable car is fine. Or if you have a useful car and a fun car, the fun car doesn't have to work all the time. Otherwise, having a car that just works is worth a lot.
Would love to see this scattered against maintenance cost.

Having to take my Subaru in for an oil change every six months is annoying, even if it means I’ve only ever had one serious issue. (Computer flipped out because someone didn’t close the gas cap tightly enough, leading to a service visit requirement, which is absurd.)
We need the non profit idp equivalent of Lets Encrypt for this function. Otherwise, the cycle continues (accumulate customers, sell out, shareholders squeeze the customer base, customers churn to new orgs, etc).
I don't know about Mini, but I hope the new VWs are better than my experience.

My VW is admittedly 10 years old, and still under the Dieselgate warranty, but I've averaged 2 warranty repairs per oil change interval for 3 years now.

They haven't been able to figure out the cranks forever but does not start for those 3 years, two dealerships have tried now.

They are fairly expensive trips I'm glad to have warranty on. EGR, DPF, 4 sensors in one trip, etc. I'm almost to a new exhaust system and the CEL is on again.

Wish me luck! I went back and forth to the dealership 7 times before they put it back together right last time.

If that's the experience, count me out. It's the last one.

No. They certainly have partnerships on specific models (Subaru BRZ / Scion FR-S / Toyota 86, Subaru Solterra EV / Toyota bZ4X), but they are not exclusive, and each have their own platforms and powertrains for most of their models.

Toyota has partnered with Mazda as well - for example, there was Mazda 2 rebadged as a Toyota Yaris for a few years.
Been driving the same car for almost 17 years now (2005 Honda Civic LX) and still going strong. Fine piece of engineering. Thanks Honda!

It is a little early to say, but I have been learning how nushell deals with structured data and it seems like it is very usable for simple cases to produce readable one-liners, and if you need to bring out the big guns the shell is also a full fledged scripting language. Don't know about how efficient it is though.

It needs to justify moving to a completely different shell, but the way you deal with data in general does not restrict itself to manipulating json, but also the output of many commands, so you kinda have one unified piping interface for all these structured data manipulations, which I think is neat.
I appreciate your being such a good devil's advocate, however as ForkMeOnTinder points out, there is already the super complicated[0] overloaded O(N^1.58+) operator for arbitrary precision integer multiplication, easily argued to be vanishingly less useful than simple vector operators, particularly if they were well-expressed at the IR level and well-mapped to modern hardware / instructions.

The ask isn't for general operator overloading (I'm also in favour of not having that), rather just not stopping native algebraic type support at scalars; the C function atan2(y, x) basically just wants to give you the complex argument, for example. Really it would just do so much to unify and simplify everything, besides being able to write vector stuff in a sane way; if every rando has to write their own vector and complex number classes, I'm much less likely to vouch for its correctness.

[0] I've recently been looking into Karatsuba multiplication to reduce it from O(N^2) to O(N^1.58): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karatsuba_algorithm

No serious password manager with syncing stores your passwords in a way that gives them or anyone else with access access to your passwords. They are encrypted, so they need your master password.

People have multiple devices, so syncing is needed for usability.

Some password managers are basically local, but with end to end encrypted syncing. If you have to move passwords around, why not use a solution that already does it in a secure way?

This article seems quite similar to the one posted two days ago on HN about Brother printers - they're great because they have very low innovation.

The top car brands - Lexus/Toyota, Acura/Honda, Subaru, and Mazda - have been widely scolded for not trying very hard to build EVs and would rather refine the same exact ICE cars for decades.
In my case it’s 50% of cars cost. Maybe 25% if I tried really hard.
I appreciate data like this because it helps counter the super strongly held opinions most car enthusiasts have about car brands, which generally seem to be based on hearsay and conjecture.

Even if that’s not the exaggeration it appears to be, fossil fuel production alone is subsidized to the tune of trillions of dollars per year.

> 1. Services like this cron with Dyno Deploy or Vercel where the cloud things are abstracted away for you.

I agree with the sentiment, but to me it’s a shame this even qualifies as abstraction in the first place. Periodic execution of a function is extremely basic and already exists in almost every programming environment. If this needs to be a service (instead of a library call), there is something deeply wrong elsewhere, imo. We all laughed about leftpad, but at least that was native code and not “as-a-service”, dependent on networking and proprietary code on someone else’s machine.

I have nothing against Deno in particular, and I’m also not saying this is easy from an implementation perspective (due to complexity elsewhere). I’m just surprised that trivial features – from an end-user perspective – justify such a ruckus.

> The way to achieve maximum deceleration in a car IS to lock up the wheels.

Very much untrue and it's a subject covered by school physics textbooks.

The wheels may not lock up simultaneously(often don't) and that is the reason why ABS will monitor wheels individually. And, if you are doing that, might as well do it all the time, and that's traction control.

ABS decreases stopping distance and increases controllability. It's a win win. These days you can't really do any better than ABS, "average" driver or not.
>We weigh the severity of each type of problem to create a predicted reliability score for each vehicle, from 1 to 100.

It bothers me to see a 1 to 100 scale for this - what does the number actually mean in practice? Comparing a score of 80 and a score of 20, does that mean the lower score is likely to need 4x as many trips to the mechanic? 4x as much spent on repairs in a year?

In other words - how big is the gap between first and last place in real-world terms? Presenting the scores this way suggests a huge difference, is that actually the case?

Either way, surprised to see Mini near the top and Mercedes-Benz all the way at the bottom!

One of the problems with home-cleaning robots is how to keep the cleaning robot clean.

The search results are just better for my use case (technical, programming), niche web pages are surfaced more easily than the common SEO websites that flood Google's search results, the summary button at the top that lets me summarize the web pages in the results so I don't need to go hunting through each ones to find the answer, suppressing/encouraging certain sites from appearing in my results more often.

I use search tools a ton for my job, so anything that can help improve my efficiency is a great help.
People need to stop using data as an excuse for making decisions, or apologizing for not having data, or arguing about the lack of data as an excuse for maintaining a status quo. As entrepreneurs, as managers, as individuals we make decisions with no perfect data all the time. It's called dealing with risk.

Sure you could get a sense for how much active coding time or whatever BS metric you can track, and look at correlation with WFH, but that stuff is pretty minor in the grand scheme of things. How's new grad onboarding affected? How's team culture and conflict management affected? How is dealing with difficult health challenges affected? Working remotely is a big shift with likely long term longitudinal effects on an organization that are hard to predict. You can't A/B test or analyze your way out of every single decision there. So I respect people making decisions without data on this, that's what they're being paid the big bucks for. As I'm sure they will respect my decision to leave the minute the terms of the arrangement no longer suits me, which will add a data point of N=+1 somewhere.

It's ok to ask to see the data if you're curious. But people are often asking for data not out of curiosity but just because they disagree with the consequences of a decision that affects them. I think that's disingenuous. You could deploy a team of data scientists to tell me that the org will definitely be 5% more productive if everyone worked from some office an hour away, and it wouldn't really matter to me. I still prefer having a remote work option and I won't commute more than 40 min to work. We don't need to ask for data about things we don't like, we can just disagree and either commit or create the attrition outcomes that will drive different behaviors in the future.
I’m Arima Jain, an 18-year-old iOS developer and graphics designer from India. My journey into iOS development began in 2021 when my brother, Aman Jain, Introduced me to iOS development and Angela Yu’s Udemy course. Winning the Apple WWDC Swift student challenge in 2022 fueled my interest, leading me to become an indie maker driven by my passion for technology and design. During the pandemic, we noticed the increased screen time for children, inspiring us to create the “Lil Artist” app. We aimed to fill the educational gap in their screen activities, combining fun and learning for an enriching experience. As 2023 comes to an end, I reflect on a year of growth and chasing dreams, dedicating this article to sharing the milestones that made it unforgettable. It’s a testament to hard work, creativity, and the support of the Apple and Buildinpublic communities. Join me as I take you through my journey of accomplishments and personal growth.

Launching Lil Artist & FunKey iOS Apps: One of my major achievements this year was making and releasing two apps Lil Artist and FunKey on the iOS App Store. Developing and launching these apps was a project I deeply cared about, and I felt a great sense of pride when Lil Artist got featured on the App Store’s main page. This journey taught me the significance of working hard, staying determined, and pursuing your dreams.

Apple Entrepreneur Camp: Participating in the Apple Entrepreneur Camp was a turning point in my journey. It provided me with the tools, knowledge, and a network of like-minded individuals that enabled me to take my ideas to the next level. The experience was a testament to the power of mentorship and community.
> Reviews can slow down development.

I don't get this. Yes, the development seems faster _without_ a code review. But the issues that you miss, the quality that could be increased will bite you back tenfolds later on. So why is that "slow down" such a big issue?
