>The reason is that the adjective ruskie is typically understood as "Russian" in general parlance

I’m not a native speaker, but I always heard that the Greek derived Rosyjski/Rosjanin/Rosjanka were for Russians (ie the ethnic majority in the Russian Federation) but Ruskie was still reserved for the Rus’ in general.

I’ve had native speaking members explain the distinction to me, that ruskie is more of a catch-all term for the Rus’ peoples. Then again, my family hails from northeast and southeast Poland near the borders with the Rus’.
Only some people try to run at 144/240/360. I set my max FPS on my PC games to 60 because it 1) feels right and 2) uses less electricity/generates less heat. I only bump it for competitive FPS where a higher FPS makes target acquisition easier.

I see people complaining about Chrome and yet refuse to stop using. Stop complaining and start using another browser. If people would actually switch then these companies would actually have to react to user demands.

Same things applies to people complaining about Android, IOS, or anything other operating system. Use something else!!
The open source DOM implementation for XR applications
I would guess lots of people no longer have access to the log files -- because the cloud is somebody else's computer (GitHub pages, etc) or because you're web scale and run your web server in docker so log files are ephemeral or maybe you're web scale so the only logging is dumping status messages to a background screen session.
I always see comments like this on HN, and I struggle to understand why. Firefox is plenty fast. Its interface is extremely similar to most of its competitors. It works well. What special sauce do you expect Mozilla to implement that'll suddenly change their fortunes? It's a browser, after all. And why do you think that such features aren't being implemented due to lack of resources or muddled priorities - surely Mozilla can walk and chew gum?
Yeah, no. I enjoy my cars very much.
Nuclear power is clearly safe
IE didn't simply die because of better competitors. They existed already way before Chrome.

But Google had the money and power to go head to head with MS.
No, DLink made it for us, and you’re smart to want to use that remote to this day! Full QWERTY keys on the back and D pad on the front was our IP and another first for the industry. The box was running an Intel Atom CPU. Some devs and people have continued to keep that hardware going too.
The rendering engine doesn't really matter - nothing is stopping Mozilla from implementing a better browser app than Safari.

Safari is _really_ good and a very high bar to catchup to, even if you don't have to implement the rendering engine and Mozilla is not exactly known for their friendly and refined UIs. Vivaldi on iOS is much younger by comparison and looks a lot better than Firefox.

I drove a BMW 3 series quite a bit (around Denver and then to Colorado Springs and back) and found the handling disappointing compared to my 3. Also, Googling “<model> weight” gives me a range of 3,862–4,048 lbs for a model 3 but 3,582–4,138 lbs for a 3 series. Since the battery pack is between the wheels, the weight balance of the model 3 makes it handle better.
IT admins please make Firefox the default on school and office computers. Why not?
You're comparing a sports sedan with a pretty normal sedan there. The fact that the model 3 can compete in the same league at all with the BMW has to do with the lower weight distribution caused by those batteries. It's not as simple as you're trying to make it sound.
Toyota reveals two new EV concepts
Yep, sauerkraut + mushrooms are the most "traditional" and flavorful.

In the US, cheese and potato is pushed instead because it's cheap as fuck to produce. Basically they end up in supermarket shelves next to all the prepared foods that are 99% cheese and 1% meat at best.
Apple does get flak for this, just less so from Apple users.

The browser restriction on iOS could thankfully come to an end thanks to EU regulation. Though one down side, is that will serve to grow Chrome's market share even further.
Personally, the approach I took to this was just to game on consoles. In my personal experience, the upgrade cycle is far far better for me. I don't feel like I've missed anything as a result either.
You mean the FireFox that won’t even allow you to persistently install an unpacked extension without installing a whole different version of the browser (Developer Edition, maybe also nightly)? I’ll take enabling dev mode any day. In fact I’ve had that enabled for more than a decade anyway.

Apple absolutely has that same business model (though it's not the only one for both companies).

You can register as an individual; but I believe they want a valid phone number and mailing address, and a reason for access.

The requests are mostly automatically approved but there are some outliers who take weeks to approve or will reject the request without more info like faxing an ID.

Requests for all these new TLDs sponsored by Google seem to be approved instantly for what it's worth.
I work for a Healthcare SaaS, and our requirements around where data can live are so strict we can only use applications that we can self-host. For us this means Helm chart and installed on k8s.

I'm honestly shocked that Sentry, for example, doesn't have a self-hosted enterprise option. We're all terrified of PHI being caught in a stack trace and sneaking through any PHI-scrubbing feature. We had to move off of Confluent because CFK's pricing is outrageous compared to Confluent Cloud. It's clearly designed to nudge customers towards Cloud, but we can't use it due to contractual requirements with customers. Everyone is so anxious about breaches that even a BAA doesn't cut it anymore.

So there's absolutely a market for this kind of stuff.
They are going to add more abilities onto the system, for example, toolformers or goal planning (like the recent Q* stuff at OpenAI people are talking about). This will make the overall product very powerful.

But even if you’re looking just at the LLM it seems like there’s a lot of ways it can be improved still.

You're not "having trouble". You just want to serve me ads and other marketing scripts. The euphanisms are nauseating.
Well said. I should have said “you don’t have to use the API if you don’t want to” instead of “don’t use this”.
Also practical question: how much of the rolling stock has to become immobilized before the immovable parts of the infrastructure become useless? At which point you can start throwing the book at whoever's responsible?
Wow, I have exactly the same side project in progress, minus the fine tuning part. We even chose the same names and phrasing for parts of the project.

One of the ways they got to having billions in the bank is by selling things for money at a profit. If Apple ever offers iMessage to Android users directly, Apple is going to get paid somehow.
This TV show immediately captured me and has always been in the back of my mind since. Then, it seemed like a future far far away, but now you remind me of it... I think it's scarily close already.

Around 2013 I came up with some hardware ideas about offline computing and even contemplated to name some versions after the characters in 'Person of Interest'.

I can really recommend this series, since it's a good story, has good actors and fits the zeitgeist very well.

edit: I also think it's time for me to get a malinois shepherd. ;)
American Tobacco Co - in 1890 and, through acquisitions and mergers, came to control virtually the entire American tobacco industry with around 150 factories. The U.S. Court of Appeals eventually deemed it in violation of the Sherman Antitrust Act and forced the company to dissolve.

Andrew Carnegie's Steel Co. - created a vertical monopoly in the steel industry by obtaining control over every level involved in steel production, from raw materials, transportation and manufacturing to distribution and finance. By 1897, he controlled almost the entire steel industry in the United States. In 1901, became part of the world's first billion-dollar business when it merged with a group of other steel businesses under the name U.S. Steel Corp. (ticker: X), to become the largest company in existence at the time, which remains among the largest steel producers in the world.

AT&T - operated as a monopoly in the telephone industry for many decades until 1982 when it was forced to break up into eight smaller companies, almost all of which have since become a part of AT&T again.
one correction: the Mastodon API is actually more expansive than ActivityPub, not more limited. Pleroma and Misskey implement additional protocols on top of ActivityPub, like WebFinger, in order to be able to federate with Mastodon properly

>it also means that some remote content gets "squished" down into that format

this is true but it's usually content going the other way: FROM a Mastodon instance TO something like WriteFreely that isn't a Twitter clone
While this dataset is orders of magnitude smaller than what recent speech models like Whisper and Seamless got trained on, and while it is meant for supervised as opposed to self-supervised learning where data is more abundant, it can still be useful for finetuning an existing model for improving its score on a specific language.
It's got one of those "We'll charge you if you forget to cancel" subscriptions. Might be google's fault, but I'm not signing up.

I didn't let on in my post but I thought Rust would be an ideal language candidate. Combining new and existing projects to fulfill the vision seems insurmountable but still a fun thought exercise.

RCS is not an iMessage replacement though? it's not encrypted, it doesn't support a single identity for multiple devices, it requires cell service and a phone number
Would like to know, how many matches were won per draft token? If it's less than 2, I'll stick to my shitty hand picks :/
What's hilarious about all this is the main reason people want iMessage on Android is not missing features, or speed, or anything practical. It's because Apple chose an intentionally terrible shade of green to use for SMS messages, to make messaging Android users unpleasant. If they had used a green with similar contrast and saturation as their iMessage blue, this wouldn't be such a big deal. Literally a single color swatch, that's what this is about.
The problem is that cars made it possible for people to live in those sorts of places, cheaply enough.

Not a solution, just an observation. If cars weren't really a thing, people would live in denser communities with walkable services (I include rural communities in this. Pre-car villages are pretty dense, and have, you know, things like shops, etc.).
Until Apple starts messing up Safari to increase that part of their business, I'll keep using it. Chrome was perfect before and didn't need more changes outside of security updates. It was "enshitified" after Google had all the market share and users locked-in. There is no incentive for Chrome to get better since their is no realistic competition. Chromium may get better since Brave and other browsers use it under the hood.
It's not $20. It's 20 British pence - about 25 cents.... "Examples include some crisps, a bazinga ball, a small amount of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, or wine."
The ActivityPub endpoints are not CORS enabled because requests to those endpoints are supposed to come from homeservers, not from users' clients. That's the server-to-server protocol, not the client-to-server protocol.
If what you care about is the color of your bubbles, then that won't make a difference.

Green bubbles don't mean "second-class citizen" or "doesn't support proper group chats"; they mean "SMS" (or possibly "not iMessage"; that's not yet clear).

It's extremely unlikely Apple will make RCS bubbles blue—even if they don't make them green (and keep that reserved specifically for SMS), they'll make them some other color.

It's not a way to make sure you can identify the outgroup and shun them; it's a meaningful signal of what technology other people you're chatting with are using, which tells you useful information about their capabilities.
They used things like standardized packaging mechanisms, matrix testing across supported profiles, dedicated staging environments, and sensible logging schemes. These are expensive and time-consuming! Product velocity is greatly increased when less time is spent on such engineering cruft.
When MS tried this shit, there weren't companies that were selling you locked-down hardware running a locked-down OS running a locked-down App Store, while taking a 30% cut of every economic transaction on that store...
All of this Chrome popularity comes from hijacking with "additional offer" in Windows software installers where people just mindlessly click "next next finish" and then they didn't event noticed their browser changed. Google got their users by dirty tactics, not because their browser was good and gained interest of the public.
You can get a standard LLM to change tone just by giving it a system prompt/instruction to follow a certain tone.

The only issue there is that sometimes the RLHF seeps through, which can be solved by system prompting even harder.
I understand the pros and cons, I just think there should be a clear demarcation of which is which. I can see a chat app deciding to keep this feature out if they think it would make the app too confusing for its audience.
I am in favour of making you pay for the externalities with taxes. Fair?
Hell, Stargate SG-1 had a few episodes that touched on the absolute hell of a Federal Government that had access to everything, or a computer system with RW access to people's gray matter and it:s own unknown optimization function (shrinking environmental protection dome resulting in live updates of people's consciousness on a societal scale to keep them in the dark as to it's happening ).
> This brought to mind the AARD "crash" which Microsoft used to basically destroy competition from DR-DOS back in the day.

Given that, according to the article, the functionality was never enabled, how did it get used to destroy competition from DR-DOS?
(Person who registered the company above here)

I suspect the actual reason for it coming up in law was because of the XSS company somebody registered some time after my meme went around. That one actually did work*, and as I understand it, there was no recourse available to companies house - they are legally obliged to accurately record company names, and the law specifies which characters can be in company names, meaning you could always serve XSS there, which they're not a fan of.

That said, they forced my company name to show as 'name available on request' now (even on letters they send me, which is kind of funny), so apparently they did find a workaround.

Why not have both: salt 'n' vinegar flavour crisps?
My first job out of college was at an ad agency. The level 1 playbook of all agencies is to find the "hot new things" in the zeitgeist and figure out how to turn it into advertising.
I hadn't seen this, this is awesome! You'd think given the volume of data available that this type of method would outperform an LLM, cool results.

Still some fun things about LLM representations -- you can do fun things like give the bots preferences / personality in a system prompt which is entertaining!
Google is paid to insert spam into email, it sounds analagous
I like how it identified that you haven't committed to either white or blue yet. It was aware of deck composition and not just going for the jugular. Keep tuning. It could also be Human-bias because you also played the hand. Have someone else draft against your LLM and then you play it and see if it's the same. Statistically it should match given enough games.
Look at developing for MSP430s with FRAM -- these microcontrollers have a decent amount of FRAM with full persistence, full XIP etc, up to 256 kB; but only 8 kB or less of traditional SRAM. Even in this world, where you /could/ have everything persisted, you still end up aware of the persistence boundary and using SRAM both for the absolutely highest-performance code (e.g. interrupt handlers; FRAM has more wait states than SRAM in this implementation), but more interestingly for things that specifically /should not/ be persisted (e.g. the bytes storing whether your POST has completed, hardware initialized, etc). You can come close to persistence-oblivious, especially at a conceptual "application layer", but the overall implementation still ends up persistence-aware.
I've been considering the switch to FF, but there have been a couple of very specific annoyances that I haven't been able to find a workaround for, so I'm stuck on Chrome for the time being...

1. When copypasting messages from discord (I do this a lot for notetaking purposes) it randomly inserts a large number of newlines into the pasted text for some reason.

e.g. instead of "[8:15PM] username: message" it shows up as

[
8:15pm
]
username
:
message

2. Also I think this may be related to the fact that I use a wacom tablet instead of a mouse and it's really hard to reproduce but sometimes when scrolling on a webpage it just randomly like. jumps to different pages in quick succession, as if it's clicking links on the page very rapidly when I scroll.

None of these happen with Chrome. idk if it's a bug or just something configured weirdly on my end.
Some Shortcomings of CSRankings
AI didn't solve the problem of summarizing complex large datasets. For example a common way to deal with such datasets is to use a random subset of this dataset. This represents a single line of code potentially to perform this operation.
Don't attribute to humans, malice that can be adequately explained by Microsoft.
Yea the only "condiment" for pierogi should be fried up onions drizzled on top.
So they absolutely segregate users onto their proprietary platform, it just happens not to cost money to use.
Meh, Safari and Brave are crap compared to Chrome(ium).
The very first nuclear plant simulator I ever played with was a primitive text-based program, running on a DEC 11/780. To win the game you had to average a certain number of MWh over each turn (days). It seemed easy, just turn it on and let it run, but there was a catch. The game simulated normal fatigue, meaning that the longer it ran, the more likely something would go wrong. Also, the higher power you ran, the faster things would fatigue. The game required you to shut the reactor down for maintenance periodically. The longer you ran it, the longer the maintenance cycle. Success involved balancing uptime and power generation with required maintenance downtime.

As an aside, I learned about how nuclear reactors generate power when I was pretty young, so I was surprised to learn, just this past year, that there were people who didn't know that nuclear reactors just heat up water to make steam, same as any other power plant. There's people out there who (quite reasonably, IMNSHO) have a model of nuclear reactors directly generating electricity from the reaction.
One should also credit Lew Wallace and his troops for their delaying action at the Monocacy.
I left Hong Kong in ~2000, and it's sort of sad to see this kind of news.
Thank you for the compliment!

We recently started adding support for CTEs in Vitess! You can check out https://github.com/vitessio/vitess/pull/14321 if you want to see some technical details of the implementation.

For now, we have added preliminary support by converting them to derived tables internally, but we believe that we need to make CTEs first-class citizens themselves of query planning, specifically because recursive CTEs are very hard to model as derived tables. Once we make that change, we can look towards supporting recursive CTEs.

This however will take some time, but then, all good things do!
Nix Super
Yup. And this isn't sabotaging some random webshit SaaS. This is sabotaging critical national infrastructure - infrastructure that's of military relevance, and need I remind anyone, there's a hot war being waged over our eastern border right now.

I feel a good enough prosecutor could pin charges of treason here.
This seems like cool technology, but I can't help but to believe that people are concentrating on the wrong problem. Range is important up to a point, but the more important problems to solve are 1) a recharging infrastructure that makes it so that EVs don't need such huge batteries in the first place and 2) recharge speed needs to be at the level of plug-in, use the bathroom, un-plug and go.
This could be used to expose government and monied corruption, not just for surveilling peasants.

What is the market for this short term?

I think this could greatly curtail government corruption and serve as a stepping stone to AI government. It's also a cool and disruptive startup idea.
That's when the compressor's going to fail, obviously. ;D
I think its as simple as the blurriness of 24 fps hides props/backdrops/etc better than at higher frame rates. Its the same with resolution. More detail makes the fake things more obvious. An old film shown on a CRT from the 90s vs. an HD remaster on a modern OLED can be almost distracting in how obvious movie props are. This is a big component of the "soap opera effect", where props and scenes become more obvious and feel "less real", despite the higher detail.

With time, higher quality sets should balance this back out.
Snazzy Labs did an overview video [1] about this implementation. According to them, reusing a specific hardware token is such s common practice that Apple would need to "redesign their entire authentication and delivery strategy" to mitigate this problem.
I guess we'll see how this statement holds up in the coming weeks/months.

What is flawed is not that there is an implicit grouping on all queries. It's that the implicit grouping changes, depending on a set of rules that consider stuff written in several places that are not explicitly related to it.

You are asking if it makes sense to have an implicit grouping at all; it very obviously absolutely does. And grouping by individual row is the very obvious default. But I do totally support adding that keyword expressing the default. All defaults should be expressible.
