This is a textbook example of the typical response when someone gets their dog whistles called out. Plausible deniability is a key characteristic of dog whistles[0]. The first sentence is as predictable as the sun coming up tomorrow:

>You are reading way too much into what I was saying.

Note also that he ignores every single point that I made in the post he is responding to. Not a single one is addressed. You see, he is nervous because he has been caught, and he is hoping to distance himself from the anti-Semitic venom he was previously so eager to spew.

My friend, since you did indeed ignore every point I made, why don't you take a shot at addressing some of them now?

Also, you never responded to my questions about the comment you made referencing some group of mysterious, powerful people that you seem to think are working in the shadows to attack Musk:

Btw, feel free to skip the part of your essay where you argue that AI is going to cause white people to lose their jobs to non-whites because it will soon allow them to perform jobs they were previously intellectually incapable of performing. I think we all get the gist, no need to go into it further:

>The cognitively gifted have suddenly found their opportunities more limited if they are White or Asian

>What will the world look like when all the unwashed masses each have their own 130+ IQ assistant in their pocket to help them with daily tasks?

When I got my two "speeding tickets" in 25 years of driving what the officer really gave me was a summons to go to court. Or I could choose to plead guilty and pay the fine.

Both time I was always dealing with the courts. After the citation, never again do I deal with police until I have the chance to cross examine the cop in court.

Like this, any interaction with police unless the charge is serious enough that I need to be arrested until arraigned.

This entirely opposite to what happens with the EPA or SEC
It's true that they're both part of the executive branch. However, one would be the recipient of the "delegation" of legislative power, whereas the enforcement component would not. Additionally, I think it's fair to assume that GP intended that the DOJ entity would bring enforcement actions in Article III courts.

I'm not sure it's the right answer, but the proposal is interesting and deserves more than being dismissed out of hand.
You're missing my point, because you understand what "generative AI" means and implies. But most lawyers don't read HN, and they will not.
Yeah, can’t really see any overlap in the camps of folk who want “scale to zero” and those who want the “automatically horizontally sharded ginormous transaction scale” that this post is about.

Nice. Is it the third time this year that we have good news from Okta? I don't know why we are still using it. What other options are out there?
I've been writing a lot of 8-bit assembler for the 6303, which is in the same processor family as the CPU in the TRS-80, which the author is writing code for (for this project in case anyone is wondering: https://github.com/ajxs/yamaha_dx97). I ran into the exact same issue. I wrote a MAME driver for the target platform, so I could test my builds on my development machine. Obviously that sped things up a lot. The MAME debugger isn't built for unit testing, and it can't really be 'instrumented', but I was able to write a lot of scripts which could get me pretty close. You can set the debugger to initialise the system RAM from a file when it hits the breakpoint at the start of your function, then test the RAM against the desired output when it when it hits the breakpoint at the end. As clunky as this is, it saved me in a few tricky places!
If there's a mechanism for setting up the same kind of delegation inside that branch, sure!

If you want congress to directly decide every detail and change themselves, that doesn't sound like it will lead to effective government at all.
In or out of the spec doesn't really matter. You can use __restrict__ in C++ and any compiler will diligently accept it, if not for the occasional warning.

The larger issue is that C and C++ have convoluted aliasing rules which makes reasoning and flagging non-aliased regions hard. The most innocent of cast can break strict aliasing rules and send you in horrible debugging scenarios. The sad side effect being people adding -fno-strict-aliasing to -O2/3.

My uncle lives in an old house in Lodi. He took down some kitchen walls for a major remodel. Somehow, a bunch of letters from the 1920s had slipped between the cracks and got stuck in the wall. It was a bunch of heartwarming, innocent correspondence between the family members now living in California and the ones who stayed back in Oklahoma (or somewhere like that). Uncle chokes up every time he reads those letters.

It is true, I am on such a prepaid SIM plan where I pay 5€ and get like 1000 minutes and 30Gb of data with it, plus bonuses. But it doesn't include roaming. There is a subscription plan starting at 7€/mo, also without roaming, however it provides less flexibility than prepaid. When I go abroad I change my plan to one that includes roaming and costs 15€/3 weeks. Other operators have prepaid roaming plans for 11€.

£25 for 12Gb of data would be ripoff here, unless it's roaming data.
If someone called me with a request like this I would assume it was a phishing attempt to take over my own accounts.

The CRISPR Era Is Here
In the trial, 29 of 30 eligible patients with sickle-cell disease went from multiple pain crises every year to zero in 12 months following treatment.

The results are so astounding that this therapy, from Vertex Pharmaceuticals and CRISPR Therapeutics, became the first CRISPR medicine ever approved, with U.K. regulators giving the green light earlier this month; the FDA appears prepared to follow suit in the next two weeks.
I always feel like when people say they want it returned to the legislative, that's the point. They don't want functional or effective government because they're secretly libertarians or conservatives.
Regulatory agencies can lower the burden the same way criminal courts do - offering plea deals.

That said, Id love nothing more than incarcerate half of Wall Street; but it must be done within the law.

>> I'd also like to make money from it somehow.

As a general rule, you can assume that if you Open Source it you will never see any money from it. Perhaps beer money here or there but you won't be quiting your day job.

There are exceptions to this rule but they are exceptions. If you figure out how to get Open Source paid for, that will be more valuable than ERP.

ERP systems are also a terrible idea for Open Source. Your target market is Enterprise (the clue is right there in the name.) Selling to enterprise is a long, complicated, expensive cycle. ERP is at the very extreme of that cycle. ERP projects cost millions to implement, require integrations with hundreds, or thousands, of existing in-house projects, and have full time implementation and maintainence staff.

I strongly recommend you find a single enterprise that is even a little bit interested in talking to you before you go down this road (hint: you wont).

They absolutely do not download and try out ERP level software - that's just not how it works.

I say this not to discourage you. Building something can be it's own reward. But I just want you to be clear on your goals. The odds of anyone ever using this are very very slim. The odds of you making any money at all is near zero as makes no difference.

I'm glad though that you are thinking about the license. Its important to choose a license that matches your goals.

The SEC managed fine without these powers until 2010, and they still take their share of cases to real court.

This is absolutely a political football, and there are definitely people supporting this just because they want to depower the SEC. That doesn't mean the SEC is in the right on the actual issue.
In 2003, small brushless DC motors were way less mature and available as they are now, particularly for low-speed/high-torque applications*. Brushless controllers are much more complicated than brushed controllers, particularly on the control software front, so sticking with simpler and more reliable brushed controllers for a space application makes sense (remember, it probably needed to be radiation hardened - doing that for an H-bridge is much easier than a BLDC controller).

*A notable example of this is in the world of RC cars, where rock-crawlers only very recently have started switching to brushless motors using field-oriented control to deliver acceptable very-low-speed behavior. Until FOC controllers became available, brushed motors offered much better low-speed handling.
As someone that has barely heard of this issue, why would adding a jury option to more judgements be a far-right fever dream...?
I just ended my one-month trial that cost $10. To be honest, I couldn't justify the price, so I'm going back to using Google or DuckDuckGo.
Yep ":>" does parse as 114. ";;" parses as 121. "<>" as 134. "999" parses as 231. Lots of work to do and nowhere close to being a magically clever and correct solution.

Note: \0 is implicit and redundant in C string literals. There is a fudge factor in some string handling semantics and it sort-of works without it with some UB risks that are platform specific. (It worked on GCC-13 on Linux on AMD EPYC.)

I like this one! I always try to think of ways to impart a similar attitude to my kids.

"You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view."

You can passionately believe in one thing but try to understand why others don't.
Agreed. I never found any value in reading reviews before watching a movie. I may read them after if I want to see what others think, but it is rare.
While I do not host OwnCloud, I do selfhost a significant amount of other services and strongly believe it can offer a lot of value in certain areas (or stages of business/work). However, part of what I think makes it viable in the current era is how good VPN options like WireGuard and Nebula are, along with various solid open source firewall/gateway options (VyOS, OPNsense, roll with OpenBSD etc). I can't imagine actually exposing anything I selfhost on the open internet, the surface area and lack of security practices is scary and has been for ages. At least separate VLANs for everything and access only via VPN from external, or at all for that matter (internal VPN or hard wire required for any access whatsoever to management interfaces, sensitive equipment etc whether internal or not, no trusting local clients by default).

Doing that itself certainly isn't perfect, obviously if facing actual targeted APTs horizontal movement efforts can be expected. But running a service with any kind of public exposure is pretty different in terms of threat profile and the sheer volume of attacks one can expect. Even with something really simple, some minimal static page serving, I'd still want it somewhere completely on a different network from my main stuff. Let alone huge gigantic complex many moving part apps like these cloud options! Individuals or small teams need to manage their available time/resources pretty tightly, and even a huge team would have trouble locking down something like that.
Oh good to know. That's one I would hang out in. Thanks.
Novel vocoder for high-quality audio generation
Introducing multi-scale sub-band constant-Q transform discriminator for high-fidelity vocoder

We propose a novel discriminator that considerably improves audio quality while not impacting your existing vocoder inference implementation (e.g. latency or inference speech)

But why do cities have all the opportunity?

This is an overstatement. In large parts of Midwest United States (and Canada), you can be middle class by farming. That is "opportunity" -- not amazing, but a good, middle class life in a small, safe town. Also, it is easy to own your home in a farming community -- much easier than large city or suburbs. It would better to ask why do cities have so much more opportunity in the 21st Century? Probably due to the structure of a highly advanced economy. Most of the (economically) valuable work in services is done in and around large cities.
binding arbitration - in principal it is a good thing. People settle their differences in private without involving the public. And between two well matched opponents it works well.

> The US breaking Google up also won't end the monopoly money.

It's also weird because modern economics with tech has created a space that creates a lot of natural monopolies. Momentum is very powerful and it's the reason silicon valley companies will run at a loss for years creating a userbase. Trick is to keep them (or sell before buyer starts charging). There's what, 2 map companies and only one of them is in high usage because it's a default? Same with browsers. You can't compete because making a better product isn't enough in a system where network effects dominate the economics. Hardware companies are seeing that (along with patent issues, especially across borders). I have no idea how to think about this tbh because it is weird. In some cases breaking these companies up ultimately destroys them while in other cases, exactly what you say.
On one hand, the market seems to react to these appropriately. On another hand, the market has a short-term memory and prices go back up.

It's unfortunate Auth0 was acquired by them. Have used it from the beginning and it used to be a great product before the Okta acq. Now it's just constant sales emails, expensive pricing, not much new feature launches, most features are very enterprise focused, bunch of bugs, frequent outages.

Yeah I took the person's comment, snipped "ECG analysis term EAR meaning" from it and popped that in to google, found a page "ECG Glossary, Terms, & Terminology List" and under the E section it has "Ectopic Atrial Rhythm".

That said if its correct, LLMs are less work for this kind of thing.

But often when people explain to another person what they are looking for, as done in their comment, they will do a better job explaining what they need than when they are in their own head trying to google it. Which is why I just snipped their words to search for it.

Although, even as a developer, I am not a big fan of how much time and energy we need to spend maintaining documentation. So while I build something to work towards automating documentation in software (with my effort at vibinex.com), I have also been thinking about home documentation automation.

Here (Maine) calls are almost $7.00/hr which is indeed outrageous, however the jobs pay 2-4x better than other prisons i've been in, the food is better, you are given more things like clothes that other prisons would make you pay for. And I am allowed to go to college, and even hold a job developing software.

So although it is absurd, I have been in other prisons where the calls are dirt cheap but they have shit food, they dont give you ANYTHING and there isn't shit for opportunities. I understand that sometimes the profit they make off the calls might be going to things like quality of the food, etc. I know that this is almost never the case, but I do know that it is somewhat the case here.
I can clear this up simply; do you believe in the concept of contracts? If so, why might your examples not be valid contracts? I think if you can figure out how to apply the concept of contracts to this situation, you will understand my position.

True that both battery systems and, more surprisingly, automatic transfer switches are pretty expensive. But I think a lot of that still has to do with lack of demand and competition. There are literally only 2 or 3 providers that I could find that make automatic transfer switches. and it was a minimum of $800. I ended up going with a $40 AliExpress option that is supposedly able to handle 125 amps which is enough for my needs but isn't UL listed, so I think would only work for diy. I also built my own battery and inverter system for about $2500 in parts that is about the size and power of a Tesla Power wall which they sell for more than $10k last I checked. but again, inverter is not UL listed.

My guess is that google ran the numbers and isn’t willing to lose money like openai is, so they have been slower to develop things as cool as openai, leading to a perception that they can’t do it. Hence the lack of excitement.

But I think that’s unlikely, and once it’s not money-losing, google will be right there. Which, as you say, they might have an edge on due to hardware.
Sigh I'm really tired of seeing people assume OpenAI is profitable. We have no idea of they are or not and have some indication that they're incinerating money on chatgpt to the point that they're turning off sign ups because they're out of compute.

I was wondering the same! I just recently came across the restrict keyword (thanks to someone mentioning it on HN) but I have never seen it being mentioned before, even though I was looking into all sorts of optimizations (also ChatGPT would never bring it up on its own).

Since with templating everything seems to be going header only anyways, I feel like we should give the compiler more power to reason about the memory layout, even through multiple levels of function invocation/inlining.

I wrote some library where basically all shapes can be infered at compile-time (through templates) but the compiler only rarely seems to take advantage of this.
I don’t think that support was guaranteed at the beginning, though. Certainly Jan Hus suffered a worse fate, being too early, but Luther could have imagined meeting the same end (before meeting God obvs). The political situation mattered a lot, as did the printing press.
