This gives Racetrack Playa vibes - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racetrack_Playa

They eventually discovered that the playa would occasionally flood, then freeze at night, trapping the rocks in the ice, and wind would then push the ice sheets with the rocks embedded, which would cause the tracks that gave the area its name.
The largest order I can make at one time is $30. It would take a lot of dedication to burn through a few thousand dollars, and it would come with no immediate feedback/reward for the effort. I'm not saying it's impossible to ruin one's life buying lotto tickets, but it seems highly unlikely and extremely boring compared to any other gambling problem I can think of.
This is always the struggle. In theory, I like the idea of just letting people make their own decisions, and let the consequences fall where they lie. But in practice we know that unrestricted distribution of addictive products (gambling, alcohol, drugs, etc) causes societal harms that are not confined to the individual making the bad choices. Doubly so when the makers of these products go out of their way to target those with addiction issues. The existence of which calls into question just how much of a choice some people really have, and whether we have a moral responsibility to protect these vulnerable people.

For all the crap robinhood got about gamifying "investing" inspiring people with that gambling gene to throw their money at the stock market instead of negative expected value sports bets seems like a good move to me.

Does this mean that existence of Android allows both Google and Apple to mutually shield themselves from antitrust accusations? They basically get to do what they want, and argue "us refusing to give you X is not antitrust-relevant, because there's the other 50% of the market that refuses to give you X in an entirely different way".
>If teenagers are to be protected here, it is up to US legislation to create a law that prevents the undesired behavior.

The Sherman Antitrust Act is broad and vague. It's practical definition depends on common-law precedent. While the system may seem baroque, it offers a kind of stability that has made common-law jurisdictions the preferred arena for most international business across the world. Hence, this fundamentally misunderstands the nature of the relevant competition law.

Yes, but if Apple's complaint is truly about security then they should have blocked it even harder before, because the cloud version wasn't E2EE. Their behavior reveals that security is not their real concern here.

I don't know how to define failure... The extra cost does reduce smoking and a lot of taxes have been collected. ($19B in 2020 according to [1], overwhelmingly to the states).

One can certainly disagree with what the tax money was spent on, but that's really a different question since that goes for all taxes collected.

Not sure too many people are eager to raise sale or property taxes to cut the tobacco taxes and/or cut state budgets.

Just yesterday I compared the small language I created to Python. Was surprised my tree walking interpreter somehow beat Python's bytecode virtual machine at recursive Fibonacci. It was just a simple hyperfine benchmark so I might be confounding code execution performance with the initialization time. Still caught me totally off guard and gave me a huge confidence and motivation boost. I was thinking something like "OK let's see just how bad this thing is" but it actually beat Python at something.

In known history, I think there has been perhaps one prosecutor charged with a crime over this. How about that for a statistic?

From my experience it is literally impossible to report a crime made by a prosecutor.

Hiding evidence might not even be a crime in many jurisdictions. In the USA it would be a constitutional violation, but that rarely makes it a crime because violating the constitution rarely becomes criminal unless violence is involved.

I don't think Apple is going to get bankrupt for forwarding a few SMS, they'll be fine don't worry.
It's not just that defaults are powerful, it's the network effects. When WhatsApp was purchased by Facebook, there was a strong movement in Europe to move to other messengers. But it never really got off the ground because everyone is on WhatsApp. Trying to live without WhatsApp in some European countries only leads to social isolation (a bit like trying to live without iMessage in the US).
How would interoperability and end to end encryption work together?

Maybe not, but [without going into it on HN], we could have done much more. For the texts article, we took a much more aggressive approach to pseudonyms to avoid something like that happening again.

As far as I know, Apple has the majority of the market in the US where iMessage matters most.
> Where are you coming up with these theories?

By simply looking at the general state of the US economy that has lost competition across the board over the last decades as large companies consolidated to form extremely large behemoths that dominate their respective markets (e.g. Boeing for aircraft, Microsoft for computer operating systems and office software, Meta for social media, Walmart for groceries, Google for search, Cargill/Tyson/JBS in agriculture, AA/Delta/Southwest/United in airlines), use both legal and illegal (such as wage collusion) tactics to cement their marketshare, and extract ruinously low purchase prices from their vendors. This shit used to be different, with lots of competition and resulting innovation, not even a few decades ago.

> A capitalist economy needs the government for some very key laws like upholding private property rights but how does that extend to "mandating interoperable message systems"?

Easy. Apple has a very popular product that they (ab)use to push its users to push their friends to get themselves iPhones. Breaking up their stronghold over iMessage would allow Android users to communicate on their devices with people who own iPhones, and it would lead to a flurry of competing messenger applications.
It's their right to not respond, but people here seem to be mad at Beeper for producing software which sends packets that Apple servers want to respond to.
Yes that's better. The mafia wasn't doing hundreds of billions in dollars of gambling business every year. Sports betting is today, and it's growing at double digit percentages.

Prohibition never completely stamps something out, but it's better than opening up access to every 18 year old with a smartphone.
This has nothing to do with android. iphone comes with an app store and that app store contains lots of messenger applications. Users overwhelmingly download one or several messenger applications from the store and use them instead of imessage. What's the similarity to IE here? IE had over 90% of browser share at some point.
I live in Europe, I have no idea what a betting parlor is. Pubs have a machine in a corner somewhere with a sad looking person playing a vaguely slots looking game (not sure never played), but I've never seen a parlor or especially one that took over a town. Do you have an example of what these look like? Or are there specific countries in Europe you're referring to?

Yes, transformers are very simple - but typically the additional lines of code are doing useful work. The comparison with nvidia megatron is particularly ridiculous imo.

One of the devices that does have Wi-Fi 7 is Google's flagship Pixel 8 Pro, so it makes sense that they are being consistent.
IMHO, the argument is that Apple does not allow any third party messaging app to send message to the built-in messaging application (Apple Messages) on the iPhone. That is Apple ships one messaging app that is the default and may not be removed, and they also do not allow any interoperability with that one messaging application.

Apple Messages is not an SMS application; it's an internet messaging application that falls back to SMS messages when communicating with any non-iOS device. There are some situations where there may be no data network and, maybe, it falls back to sending an SMS message to another iOS device but this is pretty rare.
We seem to take so much for granted these days but this fun weekend project is literally the future. This is Star Trek level of creation. Pretty soon, we'll have these kinds of creation tools 'read' a book and create a 2 hour movie with SFX.

Read a comic series and create a franchise. Listen to the humming of a tune and create a complete music video. The "creator" in some cases, will continue to tweak and tweak until it becomes a masterpiece - and in doing so... become part of the creative process.

In other cases - as were seeing now - we'll be bombarded with tons of low-effort spam. This was always going to be the price paid for these kinds of tools. We all know this.

Still... we're going to see so many more people actively creating because they're able to do so now with these kinds of tools.

Thanks for making this - it was fun testing a couple of sites!
I'd think that such researcher would've already heard of adages like "you can't get nine women to give birth in one month", or "where there's six cooks, there's nothing to eat".

Or more directly, perhaps one should ask such researcher, "if your team was to double in head count, would you do this project twice as fast?".
They don't know what they mean, because there isn't a legal precedent for narrowly defining monopolies to facets of a single company's stores and platforms. It's just wishful thinking phrased authoritatively.

Would it be ever possible to run a GPT-{n}, n>3, similar model in a home computer wihtout GPU? I have a "good" laptop with 32GB, good processor, but no GPU (I was never interested in gaming, crypto or ML), but I found GPT very useful and I'd prefer to run a local version instead of keep feeding OpenAI.
I don't take it as this at all. I think NVidia is assuming (like the rest of us are) that AI is going to dominate the next decade or so of computing (at least?) and by investing in essentially _all_ of the independent players, they stand a good chance of backing a winning horse.

It almost turns them into VC firm more than market manipulators, imo
Did I miss a step in the article? The headline is about Raspberry Pi, but the example says x64 and uses UEFI. AFAIK the Pi doesn't use UEFI.
...insider trading like what? With fantasy sports, they controlled the game so could use pick rates. With sports betting, it is one of the most liquid markets in the world with billions traded every week.

Sports books definitely use liquidity to set their lines, but 99.9% of the bets they take are uninformed bettors who aren't going to move the market..that is how they make money. And the books in the US have very little to no staff setting lines, they just work out what margin/risk they want to take and then add that onto current market prices...that is it. They aren't betting against you, you are betting against the market, they are taking a commission.

The reason why they are doing the bonus stuff is because they are the most exploited part of the market. I live in the UK, when these bonuses were a bigger part of bookmakers promo strategy I knew people who made a living from them (I will leave it up to you to work out how). Most bookmakers deploy a more careful strategy these days, this clearly wasn't a careful promo that they decided to try and make up with onerous T&C...not a good idea (this is, unfortunately, the way things are going).
Webassembly doesn't solve the same problems as styleable components, scoped CSS, and things like that though. Webassembly solves the problem of "how do I deploy this software that isn't written in Javascript to the browser client?".

Sure, it also is sorta about performance, but JS interpreters are actually shockingly fast in the modern world. Mostly wasm is about moving your existing C++ code (or whatever) for your existing formats or algorithms or tools into a web/mobile client without having to hire someone to recode it all in TypeScript or whatever. That's not sexy, but it's valuable.
Because the user explicitly authorized the app by logging in with their own credentials and has the keys.
You're going to get the usual answers, which will be different flavors of find & talk to users. I will offer an unusual answer.

This isn't 2009 anymore. All the low-hanging startup, app, and SaaS fruit has been snatched up. You can't just "make cool things" and look for people to buy them. There's too much noise now. Too much competition. No one cares.

If from the outset you don't already know who you're selling to, how to reach them, with the certainty that your offer solves some pain-point, and with the certainty that people will actually pay for it, then you're better off just buying lottery tickets. Probably have better odds of success that way. And the only way to have that certainty is to already be knee-deep in whatever domain it is that your app is a part of.
Yes, this is like a picture perfect case for interoperability.
> Such an insane capitalization on digital sales...

Apple's market cap is built on something like 80% hardware sales by revenue.
I am very curious what three other messaging application are available on iOS and have more market share than Apple Messages! Nearly every member of my family has an iPhone and they all use Apple Messages.
In the context of this blog post (reimplementing nanoGPT as-is without shenanigans, although training is a separate issue), transformers is straightforward enough. I do agree that going beyond the documentation demos does make things more complicated, but IMO still less so than other implementations speaking from experience. AI is still sometimes necessarily complex.

It's certainly an order of magnitude easier to use something like transformers or diffusers than the original implementations provided by the original model trainers, and has a few good optimizations out of the box.

That's different from LangChain which is complex for the sake of being complex.
My father was called for jury duty a few years ago. The case depended on some physics, something about the angles and momentum in a car crash. My father was disqualified, because he's a physics teacher and may have been tempted to interpret the physics expert's testimony instead of blindly accepting it.
Like I said, if that was the issue, Apple could just charge $10 per month for iMessage users that don't have an Apple product linked to their account.

The only reason is to bully people who fear social exclusion into buying an iPhone.

(I am an iPhone/Mac user, so I am not trying to bash Apple from the other side of the 'divide').

According to OpenAI, they don't use data sent to the API for training and delete it after 30 days. So your concern is misplaced unless you think OpenAI is outright lying about their policies.
Yeah, lesson learned. I wasn't bitter about it. We both knew what could happen and I accepted the risk. You were doing absolutely the right thing. You did nothing wrong. You saw the transcripts, the judge was a piece of shit all the way to the end.

I'm doing good. Almost all the charges were dismissed a couple of weeks ago. Last ones on appeal now. Hope everything is good with you.

Integration. None of the alternative messaging apps are first parties on iOS. Just like IE, for a moment, was the only first-party browser on Windows.
> So, uh, factors that have zero to do with Apple are evidence that it is… abusing… the… market…?

How does this have zero to do with Apple? It has everything to do with Apple, because it’s ultimately their product decisions driving user behavior.

Had they implemented support for RCS by now, this conversation wouldn’t be happening. They made the explicit choice to capitalize on their poor interoperability and decided to claim it’s for security reasons, which is pretty obviously bullshit.
There's no technical reason why services could not interoperate and still provide end-to-end encryption.
That's weird, I confirmed it on https://drafts.csswg.org/css-values before posting that comment, but now I can't find it anymore. Thanks for the correction.
PI is meant for embedded projects, like making a robot, where you need the camera input, the high-speed GPIO, the small power consumption and the formfactor.

I tried a split week with a similar rationale, it wasn't that great. Too hard to get momentum, either at work or at home. I also tried Mondays off instead of Fridays, but for cultural (US) reasons, 3-day weekends with Fridays off is what seems to work best for everyone involved, including people who are working 5-day weeks alongside you.

Also note that federal holidays are often on a Monday, so having Mondays off reduces the number of holidays you have. You of course should get your 4-days/week and those holidays, so you should take an extra day off in that case, but the optics of that don't really work. (Maybe this is because those federal holidays are the minimal concession we have towards "people shouldn't work 5 days/week every week).
So now all the other ISPs they compete with will have to improve their offerings to match, right?
