But your corp very likely wants to look young and fresh and not like a very serious, but ultimately boring lawyer agency.

Curious if there’s any web based implementation yet? I guess it’s more of a hassle to ask the receiving party to open up the sending session when you can just provide them an asynchronous link to a hosted file (Dropbox, mega, etc)
Nice, thanks for sharing. I love Excalidraw but tldraw [0] (which I assume is a play on "tldr"?) seems just as good if not a tiny bit better in some small ways at first glance. There's also an Obsidian plugin, though it is still in beta [1].

Very happy to see more options in this space. Draw.io is still usually my default for "official" drag-and-drop diagrams, but these tools fill a much-needed gap (in the remote-first world) where physical whiteboards used to be, and lower the barrier for quicker diagrams and ad-hoc discussions.

Sweden's stance has been that there’s no reason to believe that politicians will do a better job than the parties involved that have an actual stake in the particular situation.

A union that operates lucidly will optimize for the longevity of the company as well as for the workers, since the health of one is deeply tied to the health of the other. Theoretically, the particular union and company can take into consideration particulars that a politician can’t, since when codifying in law, the perspective is much more general.

I guess we’ll see if it holds up, but IMO the Swedish model is at least not obviously worse than the “utopian” alternatives of fully centrally controlled, and fully unregulated.

I remember how horrible templating error messages were in the early days of C++. They still aren't great.
In certain scenarios, it may be necessary to assign multiple VLAN tags to the same network port. This is particularly common in environments where devices connected to that port need access to different network segments simultaneously.

For example, a networked device in a conference room might require access to VLANs designated for both guest internet and internal company resources. In this case, the port would be configured as a 'trunk' port, allowing traffic from multiple VLANs (each identified by a unique tag) to pass through. This setup ensures that the device can communicate across different departmental or functional network segments, such as VLANs for e.g. IT, Marketing, or Sales, etc.

Using VLANs over physical LANs or different subnets is fundamentally about enhancing network management efficiency and flexibility. The core advantage of VLANs is that they allow network administrators to segment and manage the network logically without the need for physical rearrangements. This means an engineer can configure and reconfigure network segments without the need to physically move cables or hardware (or even be on-site).
No, they're not. They have the option to buy stock at a discounted price.
That's a feature, depending on your application. If you (intentionally) blow the secure boot fuses, you want it to _stay_ in secure boot mode.
Show HN: I built FastCut to create reels in popular captions styles in one click
Hey Everyone, I'm Nikhil, a 17 year old student from India.

I have been an editor for the past 4 years myself and having edited over 100s of videos and reels for clients, I realized the need for automating redundant tasks in editing SFC (short form content).

Initially I was using it as a command line tool for my personal use, then I thought it could become a useful product to help others in the community as well.

That's how we made FastCut : https://fastcutai.co (It is a one-click tool that creates captions in the style of creators like Alex Hormozi, MrBeast, Ali Abdaal, etc.)

We'd love to hear your feedback and advice on our product. Since we are first time builders, any feedback from your side would be immensely valuable for us.

Try FastCut here: fastcutai.co

What's missing here is that I grok the concepts but I am ammillion miles away from having the tools, the setup, the basal how-to to appreciate how hard this was

I am always banging on about software is a new form of literacy and I love and encourage any attempt to get kids coding, but there is a huge gap of "maker" style hands on availability - more libraries with "maker" areas, more encouragement

The UK supposedly has a large software gaming industry now because of things like BBC micro and the cottage industries that sprang up in the early eighties

I conjecture that a similar industry of light-medium hardware will spring out of building sufficient open access and just letting creative people find entirely new ways to build.

In short, me wanna try that, and I am egotistical enough to believe everyone else will too
Ok, perhaps it's true. But in Germany, almost all social programs or union-type programs are funded somehow through taxes. Perhaps though Unions are different.

I'll tell you exactly why: because graphic design, which used to be about concept and humanity and risk-taking, has been transformed into a darkpattern-loving exploitative commodity in which no truly creative person wants to live.

The most ironic thing of all is that the author of this article has built a platform – one of many – that has sucked all deliberation and concept and creativity out of the branding process.

The Fiverrification of identity creation.
To the people dismissing this work as a yak shave you are missing the spirit of the article. To me it shows creativity, out of the box thinking, the will to solve a problem and actually doing it and the ability to explore a field which was previously unknown to the author and yet come up with a solution.

Besides that it contains a wealth of information on related and dervative topics for future reference. Great stuff, the world needs more of this.
Aren't the US in a safe region as well? They choose to spend a lot in military to project their force globally, not because they need to protect themselves.

I learnt C++ in the 90s. I internalized the various gotchas and learned to use a relatively safe and expressive subset of the language. I'm still programming in C++ now and (I'm slightly ashamed to say) haven't bothered to keep up with all the new features. I keep meaning to make the time, but there is always higher priority stuff to do. I use foreach plus the occasional lambda and auto type. What have I been missing?
Design is a bit of a fashion industry. Lots of people imitating each other. I'm not a designer but I know a few good ones and appreciate good design.

What I appreciate in good design is not only looking good but standing out from the crowd. The problem with imitating others is that you end up looking like everything else. It's not offensive. But also not remarkable or memorable. A lot of web design suffers from being bland and generic.

A few years ago we had an app and our designer came up with an intense shade of red that was slightly pinkish. He then proceeded to use that for our app icon. Net result: it jumped out from all the other icons on the phones apps drawer. The whole app looked fantastic but that icon was awesome. You could not not notice it. Everybody else was using fashionable blues and greens that literally everybody uses.
Haven't seen Reddit mentioned yet. Their new logo doesn't follow this pattern.
One way to consider how an LLM "sees" text is to imagine a character based language like Chinese - each symbol is a syllable which can be a word on its own or part of a word. If you scramble words at the character level, you are going to produce combinations of letters that don't match any known symbol. It would be like drawing a series of random strokes and asking someone who knows Chinese what it means.

If you look at the example given in the paper, the word "won" is a single token. When it is scrambled as "wno" it is tokenised as "w" and "no" both of which are unrelated to the original token "won". Somehow the LLM is able to relate these two completely different tokens "w" and "no" back to the original token "won". I think the paper is claiming this is surprising because these tokens shouldn't have any correlation with each other in its training data.
Show HN: Gobble Bot
All your content digested into one text file

You have a website, PDF or a Youtube video and want to make a GPT chatbot on ChatGPT. Simply use Gobble Bot to turn it all into one text file, ready to use for training.

see demo video: https://x.com/rafal_makes/status/1723786488578556203

-> What is this?
Gobble Bot is an all-in-1 scraper designed to convert all different kinds of content into one text file.

-> Why do I need it?
You need it if you want to create a GPT (a custom ChatGPT chatbot) but your content is a website, YouTube video or spans more than 20 files (the current upload limit for GPTs). You can crawl the whole internet and turn it into a chatbot, I guess.

-> What data does it handle?
Youtube videos with transciptions, public websites and files with extensions: .TXT, .MD, .XSL, .PDF, .DOC, .DOCX, .ODT, .OTT, .RTF, .HTML, .HTM, .ATOM, .RSS, .XML, .XLS, .XLSX, .XLSB, .XLSM, .XLTX, .CSV, .ODS, .OTS, .PPTX, .POTX, .ODP, .OTP, .ODG, .OTG
>> raises further questions about using the Turing test to evaluate AI model performance.

Aside from the fact that ELIZA was tuned to present as human and GPT3.5 was not, the validity of the basic Turing Test still seems a key issue. Fooling ordinary humans is a common occurrence, as Richard Feynman pointed out, "... and the easiest one to fool is ourselves.".
Days of Being Wild, Wong Kar-Wai
There is no paradox as I see it. All involved believe that AI is going to be revolutionary. They only disagree on its potential impact. But either way, if you believe this is going to be something powerful, then you would want to be able to possess it, control it and learn all about it.
Although I respect Mr. Musk, I am partial towards Mr. Page's prediction. We are not going to be able to keep AI in a bottle, just like we could never dream of keeping any other technological revolution of the past contained.
The turing test, as has been often discussed, is pointless. Reason being that the tests results are determined at least as much, if not more, by the interrogator and the human interrogee as they are by the machine.

It doesn't test "Can a machine think" so much as it tests "Can a human be tricked". There is a reason why ML research mostly ignores the Turing "Test".

But, alas, its name has a nice ring to it, it is known (by name at least) to pop culture, and easy enough to understand for everyone, and so it gets far more attention than it deserves. Pretty much like Asimovs three "laws" of robotics :D

r/TIL thanks so much, I wish I had reddit_silver to give. Have a great Sunday!
Am I misunderstanding something or does this look like the worst possible incarnation of a monolith? Everything seems to be sharing everything, so whenever you modify anything, everything is impacted. Which in turn, means that a developer who wants to make any changes, has to understand the whole system in order to not break things or make a mess - which of course leads the cautious developer to write new, duplicate code for the piece of shared functionality that they want, defeating the whole purpose.

Happy to be corrected, I hope I'm wrong.
Im not sure what the definition of soft is, and whether the definition has changed over the past three or four decades. Id think less emphasis of tech or what-if science, and more personal inner exploration. It used to be an emphasis on sociological or anthropological themes.

"all the Japanese art I've seen with calligraphy that is unreadable to me"

I've heard from an Arabic speaker that that beautiful Arabic calligraphy also suffers from a lot of rearrangement to get the appearance, also making it difficult or impossible to read
When I see these kind of readability-decreasing optimizations in code reviews, I always push back. Almost always, that same Go code queries some other service over the network or loads data from the database, or similar, and nobody will ever notice the speed improvement of IndexOf over Split at the bottom line. But everyone working with that code at a later time will spend extra time (sometimes hours) just trying to understand what's going on. That's much more expensive than a few extra CPU cycles here and there.

Sure, if you're writing an inner loop for some heavy workload, e.g. in graphics or maybe parsing terabytes of JSON, it makes sense. But outside of these rarely occurring situations, you should always prefer readability over low-level optimizations.
I'd rather try to build systems that always work, rather than only working for well-formed inputs transmitted over well-behaved mediums.

I think there’s possibly a fundamental preference disconnect here. Some people like being around people. I’d never even consider living in an isolated house in the middle of nowhere; I like being able to walk places and have people around.

Calling someone a Jew in the middle of protests against Israeli war crimes might indeed be harmful by inciting violence. Posting a random meme usually won’t. It’s not that hard to tell the difference.

Some people don't like the sound of cicadas but I love them. My little piece of paradise on earth is on the french riviera and it is full of italian stone pine trees [1] and there are lots of cicadas.

I go there since I was kid and I actually lived there for a while (my kid went to school there). Many of our little family movies (the ones we now all film with our phones) have noisy cicadas in the background.

At times there has been years without cicadas (I think due to a terribly harsh winter and the weird/long cicadas lifecycles) and I was dearly missing them.

It's become a Pavlovian conditioning to me: I hear cicadas in a movie and I want to be there!

As far as I understand this is Python specific.

Most monorepos I work with do not use a single language but many. It's pointless to use multiple tools for the same thing instead of one that works with all languages, like nx for example.

Barely can break 350mbps with IDs and IPS enabled and starts getting buffer overload. I'm pretty sure Mikrotik had a faster router a few years before the usg4 hit the market for about the same price.

what unifi sold people on was cloud managed easy config and it just started working somewhat in the last version for me. Really feels like they need to triple down on the software front and beef the midrange hardware.

I just looked the other day - as I'm getting symmetric 2gb fiber in a few months and unifi has some wild high end router but it seems like it needs more on the CPU and ram front still, too. OpenSense here I come?
“It’s been sustainable for a century” is not a very convincing argument and is kind of the whole point
I've recently given up on the idea of hiring genius level engineers for jobs that require building CRUD applications 80% of their time. It's a waste of money, a waste of the talent pool, a disservice to the candidate and a future risk to the company as such individuals will inevitably get bored and start over-engineering things to keep their minds occupied. For most engineers (but not all), being able to correctly write create, update, delete and query operations at the database level and API level, and being able to call APIs from the front-end level, with proper error handling, with a decent approach to debugging, is enough.
Developer mentions the abysmal state of Android development and where it's headed as one cause in a comment. That's honestly relatable. Some of those apps are the best available on the platform (the pro gallery especially so), I'm sure the fork will do fine even in maintenance mode as it's mostly feature complete. F-Droid may be slow with releases and have a few annoyances but it remains the best and most trustworthy store—on Google's you'd never see this coming until the incoming ad/spyware is installed on your phone, those acquisitions are predatory with user data.

GPT-4 was clearly trained to fix typos and handle not well written written requests. That much is visible directly from just using it within chatGPT UI in normal usage and fits common user scenarios (eg fix my bad draft). We know it was trained on social media data from Reddit much of which is not great writing either. Now I'm wondering if it was trained on (imperfectly) OCRed data too...
Sorry my mind was just blown that this isn't already in place... this is an APT-sized (advanced persistent threat, not the package manager) hole that makes me wonder how many others are still out there.
A few years back when I was at sandy hook the missile system gate was open. Some veterans who used to operate it gave us a free tour of the equipment and explained all about it.
It's sustainable until the union is out of money, supposedly

At which point the "problem" deals with itself... no? Either the workers capitulate or Tesla ceases operations

Just reading the thread... the sustainability argument seems totally backwards.

For those in the "shut up and get to work camp", this seems ideal

Tesla has more money and is managed by a person who is physically incapable of abandoning an idea
The paradox is that this technology only comes into being by deliberate effort from those claiming it is dangerous. These companies wouldn’t exist if they weren’t funded by SV billionaires and corps.

I thought the recent Oppenheimer film dramatized this sort of scenario quite well. People rushing to build a weapon, claiming it’s dangerous and must not be used, and then feigning innocence and surprise when it was used.

Big fan of tusker (https://github.com/bikeshedder/tusker) for PostgreSQL migrations. Tusker takes a SQL-first approach; You write your schema in declarative DDL (I have my entire project in one schema.sql file) and when you edit it, tusker generates the sql code required to migrate. It uses temporary test databases to run both your declarative DDL and your step-by-step migrations to ensure they are in lock step. And it can connect to live databases and diff your schema/migrations against reality. I've never seen a better toolkit for schema evolution.
This is an alternative to tools like Insomnia REST or Postman. No account is needed to use this software. No data is shared. No installation is needed. Hopefully its features would be more suitable to users and have fewer usability bugs.

Users can also learn how application protocols operate on HTTP wires through this software.

Images and videos describing this software are available in the project website: https://sunny-chung.github.io/hello-http/

I created this project because my favourite HTTP client softwares all go to cloud and requiring an account to use, also the major bugs were not addressed, e.g. a request collection is deleted unexpectedly by opening a drop down menu.

Please let me know if there is anything missing. This is my first opensource application project.

The situation with Chinese/Japanese calligraphy is much more like that which many English speakers have with reading untidy handwritten English (see doctor jokes) or idiosyncratic autographs or signatures.

How well can you write Japanese by hand, with correct stroke order? Doing that, in my experience, makes it a lot easier to understand 行書 — in the same way that knowing cursive makes reading untidy or artistic cursive easier — but 草書 does still take a lot of work. (I'm not there myself yet!)
> Now I'm wondering if it was trained on (imperfectly) OCRed data too...

Or perhaps they inserted typos automatically in the training set as data augmentation. Tactics like that is known to increase the roboustness of some models, so why not?
