So why not have EC2s have a 50% SLA. Have them all force quit at some random interval between 2 hours and 200 hours, guaranteed. Have EBS volumes just corrupt your data every week. Why bother with SLAs at all when the solution is buy more redundant resources?

Or how about having actually reliable primitives?

I don't disagree, if you need extreme reliability build your infra to handle multi-az, even multi-region outages. But sometimes I'd rather just have an instance just stay online instead of having to pay for it three times over and still have it reasonably be expected to not corrupt itself. Hypervisor and storage technology could make that happen, as it's true on other clouds and has been true in the data center for decades.

I can have an instance on GCP with it's block storage having 99.9999% durability. I can't do the same with gp3 on AWS without having to deal with the complexity of clustering and all it's headaches and costs, the volume has a durability of 99.95%. Why is that an unreasonable ask?

Yes it really bothers me, the re-inhalation. This is why I wore simple FFP1 masks. I found them even better than cloth masks.
It strikes me that this opens or at least expands an attack vector for prompt injection. Humans might overlook a scrambled block of text that GPT-4 will interpret and then execute.

Also, I was curious about whether this would also work with images. So I chopped an image of a bird (a night heron) on a boat in my own collection (so, not in GPT-4's training data) into squares and randomly rearranged them, then tried to get ChatGPT-4 to interpret it. It doesn't work. I got this:

CHATGPT RESPONSE:

The image you've uploaded appears to be a composite of several smaller images that are cut and arranged in a grid-like pattern. This collage-like arrangement makes it difficult to discern a clear, singular subject. However, I can identify fragments of what seems to be a bird—possibly a magpie or some type of corvid—due to the black and white plumage. There are also elements that look like parts of a silver car, like a side mirror, and segments of wooden structures that could be parts of a bench or a deck.

The way the images are scrambled resembles a puzzle, where each piece needs to be placed correctly to form a coherent whole. This type of image could be used as a challenge to reconstruct the original picture, requiring the viewer to mentally rotate and arrange the pieces.

Maybe a different approach to scrambling an image would work.
Lol and iOS autocorrect definitely prefers the latter.
Pretty much everyone got covid anyway. The vaccine was an unnecessary intervention that didn't do anything to stop covid and caused harm to many people. Just admit you were conned into taking it.

Haven't you noticed, after smearing, slandering and discriminating against those who chose not to take it, there is very little interest in following up with comparisons between the two groups? You would have expected scientists to be really interested in comparing the groups considering it was done under Trump's operation warp speed, and used a novel technology never before approved for human use. Instead the vaccine free are ignored. Tells me all I need to know.

Everyone is using copyrighted data.

Google is also using copyrighted data, or we'd have no search, and therefore we'd have no web, which thrives on search.

Elon Musk's xAI Grok model is also using copyrighted data.

So what, exactly, is supposed to be the "gotcha" or news here? What is there for OpenAI to reveal? Yes they scraped the web. That's blindingly obvious.

But the idea they can license the world's content like you do when you buy a book for yourself, that's as silly as saying Google should buy a license for the world's websites before it can index them.

We should instead be steering the conversation towards how can we use AI itself to identify sources to award when people pay for AI's services.

Using the legal system or human judgement for this is laughable. The legal system acts on the scale of years. Humans act on the scale of days and months. AI acts on the scale is milliseconds.
Elon is the owner. Altman is a hired CEO.

You're free to sue me like for any other harm. Also, do you think that now you are protected against that? Will Google/Apple pay you compensation if due to to their negligence locked down devices become part of botnet?

Edit: but honestly if I could pass "driver test" for computer, pay insurance in the range of my car insurance and it would mean that I will never meet error message without details and I would not ever be locked out from configuring my device, however I please, I would take that deal.
Tesla is not special, but letting it build infrastructure and start business there with certain assumptions, which are entirely reasonable (there's no MANDATE in Sweden to unionize workers) and then suddenly IF Metall pulls workers to orchestrate a strike which forces Tesla into losses, is not exactly an honorable practice.

Just recently a judge in Sweden itself ruled that withholding license plates from Tesla was 100% illegal. The post is not delivering their mail. This is quite bizarre. And what do you think will employees gain here? They'll be paying union fees, and get a raise equivalent to the unions fees they pay. Tesla's pay in Sweden is not below industry average but ABOVE industry average. Meaning IF Metall didn't improve things at all in all other companies they have unionized.

Keep in mind the employees have little say here. They're threatened that if they don't comply, they'll never be able to find another job in this industry, which is largely controlled by IF Metal. So just like Tesla has the choice of "do business with IF Metall or leave Sweden" the employees are also told "do business with IF Metall or leave Sweden".

Let's not pretend like the union are the "good guys" here. Tesla is a big player globally, but locally in Sweden IF Metall are the big player, and they're leveraging this to gain power through any means possible.

Europe has given us many good things, but overall there's a reason why businesses here stagnate and there's no growth. A huge union abuses power the same like a huge corporation abuses power. There's no distinction here. The problem is the size. You don't want players to be too small (i.e. individual workers negotiating with a gigantic corporation) but you also don't want all corporations negotiating with one monopolistic "my way or the highway" union.

When either side in this transaction feels like they HAVE NO CHOICE, whether employee or employer, then the model is broken.

---

And also you may consider my perspective to be tinted by Tesla and Elon Musk fandom, despite my best attempt to express myself neutrally. But I actually cheered for IF Metal when I heard about this story initially, as I know Musk has been treating his employees like disposable resources in both Tesla and SpaceX at times. He's not a good manager. And I am no fan of his ventures. But looking closer at IF Metall, I've changed my mind on the Sweden situation specifically.

Report Phone Spam – Shut down robocallers and text spammers
Do you receive unsolicited phone calls or SMS/text spam? I made a free public service site explaining how to find the telecom carrier that is responsible for the spammer's (real) phone number and report the abuse to them – so the carrier can terminate their service.

It works, and it feels like magic.

Background: Earlier this year, I wrote an HN comment[1] explaining how to find the telecom carrier responsible for a robocall or SMS spam campaign. Those steps aren't documented anywhere else, even though they're actually pretty easy.

This info deserved to be much more visible, so now it is: https://reportphonespam.org/

As my site says, most reputable telecom carriers don't want unsolicited messages on their network or phone numbers. In order to disconnect their abusive customers, they need to hear about the abuse. That's where you come in. In a few minutes, you can report abuse to the responsible carrier, who will investigate and often shut off the spammer's phone number(s).

Ask HN: What is the optimal timing to commit acquired knowledge to SRS?
In the context where knowledge is considered valuable enough to commit to memory, what is the optimal timing for committing newly acquired information to a SRS such as Anki, from both scientific and anecdotal perspectives?

Should this be done immediately after the information is understood and can be paraphrased or logically deduced, or is it more beneficial to wait for a certain period - minutes, hours, or even a day?

For instance, there is information that I can paraphrase seconds after removing the source I acquired it from, yet it vanishes minutes later if I don't "latch" it onto something, but I also seem to have noticed that I tend to recall information better if I pondered on it for some time. I'm not able to quantify the "some time" part though. One could make the case that maybe this is in itself rough spaced repetition practice, but it feels different than the first 1 or 2 repetitions on Anki, were I to transfer that same information immediately to it.

Would doing related activities before committing be more effective instead? Anything else that I didn't consider?

> then it'll also not pass the Turing test

Chatterbots, including the 60s-era ELIZA, which are mostly useless for this kind of task, have repeatedly been shown to be able to trick people into chosing the machine during the Turing "Test", so I'm not sure how you come by that conclusion.

> at least if you require consciousness as a requirement for "thinking".

I don't require consciousness, or an abstract and not-even-clearly-defined "thinking" capability from an advanced ML model. I require fitness for purpose, whatever that purpose is, and in most use cases I ever encountered, "trick the humen into believing I'm a human" isn't one of them.

> Maybe we just disagree on what we mean when we say "think"?

I don't think we really disagree, I think the problem is that "thinking", "consciousness", "intelligence" and a lot of other terms that often get thrown around when talking about AI, are really not well defined in technical terms.

Another vote for TP-Link here. I’m a big fan of how easy it is to adopt new devices too. Most recently I had to add a switch for work VLAN purposes. While waiting for it to arrive, I preconfigured the VLANs in the controller. When it arrived, it was basically just plug and play.
I wonder why do you have the perception that half the world would attack the US if they didn't have the largest military force.

Why doesn't that happen to Austria, for example, or China?

Perhaps "fucking" with the world is what caused the US to be considered an enemy by so many countries.

Almost like the more they impose their force globally, the more other countries feel the need to resist it.
Aldi has become our first stop for everything, if we can get it there we do before going to one of the big chains around us.

Their prices are often 2-4x cheaper than the big chains, sometimes for the exact same item. “Fancy” cheeses that are $10 a block at the big chains are $2.50 at Aldi. Produce can be a bit iffy sometimes but if you’re flexible and spend a bit of time picking through it it’s fine.

The self checkout machines are also much better (even though they are annoyingly insistent about “scanning the next item”) and I’ve never had to wait for someone to come unblock it vs the big chains where they always seem to get stuck when I move some items around.

I’m also a big fan of the culture changes they embody - 25 cent deposit for your cart so the parking lot isn’t filled with carts from lazy people and allowing your cashiers to sit down while they work vs making them stand for no reason other than a power move.

It’s so much better than competitors that I’ve become a marketing employee for them anytime high food prices come up in conversations to the point where my partner jumps in with “get ready for the Aldi speech”

yes, i'm a prick for exposing curious kids to stuff outside of their class' curriculum. heaven forbid someone providing learning more advanced than the other students.

it's people like you that are pricks for thinking that anyone with extra learning are punishing everyone else in class. it's never a problem for keeping students ready to advance faster than the rest of class keeping them all held back at the slower pace.

you're also a prick for assuming the way the conversation came about. you're a prick for not thinking that the conversation was about how math can be fun where things that are simple and considered basic can be different and more advanced where 1+1=2 can also be 1+1=10. but now, you just go off and assume i'm a dick saying 1+1=2 is wrong and the correct answer is 1+1=10 or whatever nonsense led you to thinking i'm a prick.
I am only going off my memory, so I could be mistaken. But IIRC the OG pi used processors originally designed for phones (at least the one that hit the market, eraly prototypes were based on Atmel micros), The iPhone used a processor originally designed for a set-top box from Samsung which was then underclocked to save on battery.

IIRC they realised that the micros were not going to cut it, they went to Broadcom (Which Eben was working for at the time) and they were able to supply some "overstock processors" for cheap, which became the processor used in the Pi. Remember at the time the Pi was never designed to be for "makers" but to be a cheap computer to help better kickstart education, it was never designed for "us", but we all said "hey, cheap little linux computer, I'll take 5!

The proposal I've heard for using CO2 to make e-fuels for grid storage would work like this:

1) Electrolyze water to H2 and O2.
2) Store the O2 (either as compressed gas or LOX).
3) Use the H2 with CO2 to make hydrocarbons or other fuels (methanol?).
4) The fuel is eventually burned in Allam cycle turbines, using the stored oxygen to burn the fuel in compressed CO2 (oxyfuel combustion). The produced CO2 of combustion comes off with water and is easily separated for storage for use in step (3).

This still has storage (oxygen, CO2, and the produced fuel) but these may be easier than storing hydrogen in locations without suitable geology.

Not that easy! A valid technical test needs to be custom made for the position and project (or type of project) you hire for and takes a while to both prepare and “grade”. It also then helps in giving you something very specific to talk about at the interview (I always find something to talk about when reviewing the code they submit for the test).

It still won’t have a 100% success rate, the best you can do is hire people you/someone you trust in the team have worked with before and know is good.

Software is as much a form of literacy as being able to compose music. It is at best a form of art, which does not make it literacy.

Several points:

Reading code solely does not make you good expert in it.

Literacy is needed in any area, while artisans can go without software and still produce.

Software is about logic, literacy is about conveying meaning.

Knowing how to code does not at all teach you how to communicate.
Except it won't be revolutionary.

The current crop of text or image generators may automate the production of low quality text and images, may produce useful diagnostic and comprehension tools, and indeed may replace some people's jobs, but that is it.

Underlying the hype is the desire of technical people to stay relevant in a world that has absorbed and purposed the mobile internet, and thereafter really isn't that interested in much more. There are more pressing non-technical problems to solve, and they will be solved without technical people.

(wealth inequality, sustaining our environment, and demographic collapse being the most pressing)

The introduction is really well done. It's not all bells and whistles like roc, but goes through everything cleanly and succinctly.

Things I found interesting

- indent with 8 space tabs

- ! error assertion operator and error matching

- ownership model of memory management

- { } denote compound expressions and yield instead of using "return"
- for for all loops, like go

- hosted on source hut

- even a nice intro to how the standard library works

- already using rfcs to some extent (whereas roc e.g. uses the benevolent dictator model at the moment)

- page on how to evangelize: https://harelang.org/evangelism/

I really like it and intend to at least play with it.

Edit: It seems like Go with memory management and some extra fancier features, which is nice.

- toolchain one person can understand (I do feel go succeeds here too)

- dedicated to Unix API, but inspired by Go's approach

- comprehensible QBE compiler (Go also has a more minimal than optimized compiler)

In a related note of worst practices, the main research assistant (who was doing most of the lab's work) died unexpectedly and since no one was using any form of version control we couldn't find his code and data after his death. Which was doubly tragic because we were in the middle of a promising cancer drug trial and it sputtered out after the cell line testing because the original predictions and methodology were gone.

The solution from the PI was to have everyone buddy up and tell your partner where you kept code on your laptop.
