I think the main thing with all the cringeworthy talk about green bubbles is about android being perceived as less glamorous - on average android users have less money, and/or are ideologically motivated - like some linux users.

In a word, android would be considered just as uncool even if they had access to imessage.
Suppose you’re a serious hobbyist, wanting to buy the most powerful consumer device for deep learning. Then the choice of buying a RTX 4090 or a M3 Mac is probably quite interesting.

Personally, I have already a RTX 3090, so for me it’s interesting if a M3 would be a noticeable upgrade (considering RAM, speed, library support)
looking at the comments perhaps the article could be more eptly titled. the author does stress these benchmarks, maybe better called test runs, are not of any scientific accuracy or worth, but simply to demonstrate what is being tested. i think its interesting though that apple and 4090s are even compared in any way since the devices are so vastly different. id expect the 4090 to be more powerful, but apple optimized code runs really quick on apple silicon despite this seemingly obvious fact, and that i think is interesting. you dont need a 4090 to do things if you use the right libraries. is that what i can take from it?
I believe so, I remember a fair amount of hubbub over it.

Can't say it's been useful here, any development I do is miles away from this. It hasn't hurt either so... cool, I guess

Call me pessimistic, but I'm not convinced this being the default will lead to more profiling. There's plenty that could be done without this, that isn't, so I'm not buying it.
To get picky, it doesn't necessarily mean they "overpaid" it means the asset is now worth less.

You could make an argument that the two concepts are the same thing, but that's not really how business works.

For example you could have paid exactly what the market value was for something, maybe even gotten a "good deal" as of the date the deal closed, and the market could subsequently shift.

Like if they invent a cheap way to convert water to unleaded gasoline tomorrow it doesn't mean you "overpaid" for Exxon three years ago, per se.
Thanks for the thorough analysis.

They cracked down earlier this year on password sharing. I cancelled my account; been using disney and prime more. It was a dumb time for them to backtrack on password sharing. People were already feeling like they had too many streaming services.
As a Montanan with T-Mobile, I promise that those "rural" T-Mobile ones are not the same type of rural that Starlink can serve.
This is disappointing. They’re covering ads…with their own ads. Their methods appear to be mounting targeted campaigns against specific ad runs. That’s totally unavailable.

From another article about her:

> Before long, Monroe was using a food bank. “It had taken me four or five weeks to pluck up the courage to go. The first time, one of the women looked at me and I looked at her. She went to church with my mum. She said, ‘Your mum will be devastated.’ And I said, ‘You can’t tell anyone. You haven’t seen me.’ She said, ‘Your parents will help you,’ and I said, ‘They can’t know.’”

> That’s what I don’t understand, I say. Why didn’t you tell your parents when they were in a position to help? “Because … ” For once, she slows down. “I was ashamed. I was ashamed that I had had a good job and I’d fucked it. I was embarrassed that I’d ended up not being able to provide for my son, and I was worried that if I told a soul, the walls would come crumbling down. Because my parents had fostered for most of my childhood, I’d grown up with this fear that if I ever had a child, he would be taken into care. That I would be an unfit mother. I’d grown up with almost 100 children revolving through my childhood home. So in my head, nearly every kid went into care because nearly every kid I came across was in the care system. I was terrified that if I told anyone, my son would be taken into care.”

So the shame itself was one of the biggest obstacles - compounded by the idea that poverty is evidence of personal inadequacy or moral weakness.

There is a problem with lack of community there: the feeling that really struggling means that you don't deserve help, because that's the message you get from your society. (And it certainly doesn't help that lack of money excludes you from all kinds of normal social activities, as she mentions in the article.)
"Competition" assumes that the market is the same. It is not.

A good example would be cable TV, and the introduction of videogames and streaming services. While the latter both are technically competing with cable TV, prices didn't change for the better.
I've been gleefully exploring the intersection of LLMs and CLI utilities for a few months now - they are such a great fit for each other! The unix philosophy of piping things together is a perfect fit for how LLMs work.

I've mostly been exploring this with my https://llm.datasette.io/ CLI tool, but I have a few other one-off tools as well: https://github.com/simonw/blip-caption and https://github.com/simonw/ospeak

I'm puzzled that more people aren't loudly exploring this space (LLM+CLI) - it's really fun.

A good example of why I try to keep anything I consider really important out of iCloud entirely! (That's quite hard with Apple's various dark patterns to boost iCloud usage & lock-in.)

But yes - it looks to me like dishonest actors managed to get the device out of my "iCloud account device list" without my permission, and thus evade the "provisioning / device lock".

I've been noticing something similar in the gaming industry as well. What is the least amount of features in a game that we can ship while still maintaining profit? AND how few people can we milk in DLC with this shell of a game to maintain profitability. (I'm looking at you Activision/Blizzard!)

It use to be build a great game with mass appeal and profit. Now its just how small can we make it and how much DLC can we sell to a small subset of people to equal profit.
France is a different country with different laws. This is called a recall because that term is the legal mechanism under which the NHTSA has the authority to tell an automaker that they have to make sure all of the affected vehicles are safe to operate on public roads. This has a long history and is in no way unique to Tesla.

The French system for radio emissions uses different terminology for the same ideas. The English term they used was a “temporary withdrawal” with a full recall if Apple couldn’t update the devices:

This does mean that news coverage used the same language as the subject of the story, but that’s no more unfair than complaining that the BBC referred to a game as football even though you think they should have said soccer.
As the query prompter you are in control of the feedback loop. You can ask the AI to re-examine it's output to catch errors just as a human would do for himself.

Practically speaking this does work to a limited extent. Sometimes the AI just sticks with it's guns and runs with it just like a human might.
For the layman, what does this mean?

The implication your analogy is sneaking in is that there is a common-sense amount of cloud storage a user might use, in the same way that there is a common-sense amount for somebody to eat. It's a poor analogy. There are cloud storage users in every order-of-magnitude bracket from 10^0 to 10^15 bytes used. S3 is not like Chuck-a-Rama. A businessperson that attempts to treat them like they are similar will be forced to make a U-turn and lose some face in the process.

These types of businesspeople should be fired urgently and with prejudice.

Some political topics have always been allowed on HN.

Which is entirely likely, given that Google's "Product Experts" aren't employees with access to internal communication channels, they're just volunteers working for internet points.
They’re not building new office space. They’re converting an office building into… an office building. At worst this is neutral for the glut.

And it’s actually a bit better than that, because IMU the glut is in lower quality buildings while demand for higher quality offices is still high.
Wait they bought and are hyping up the State of Illinois building, that everyone use to call a giant glass toilet? Now I've seen everything.

That building was a laughingstock of design when I was a kid, I had family members that worked there. If I recall correctly it also had a habit of popping glass panes out of the upper levels and having them rain down terror on unsuspecting pedestrians in the atrium.
Billboards distract drivers and are a safety hazard. They’re also lit up like crazy and are an extra hazard at night not to mention the light pollution.

Advertising for local events should be allowed under some carve out but it would be nice if the vast majority of ads died as they’re not that. Here in SF for example when entering or leaving the city the ads are full of coke, Disney, Apple or Google phones, or various startups trying to show VCs their money is being put to good use (same thing film studios do in LA putting awards nominations and tv ada on billboards on the route to work/home of influential money people on a given project)
It's worth pointing out that individual states, counties, and cities also have their own minimum wages, and some eliminate the so-called "tipped" minimum wage entirely. The federal minimum wage is just there to stop the South from rebranding slavery again.
> Israel isn't trying to push Palestinians out of Israel. The ambition that leaders on both sides agree on is that the Palestinians will have their own state.

That's not true at all.

The 2 most recent Prime Ministers of Israel have made it very clear that they will ensure that no Palestinian state can ever exist. Naftali Bennett is the leader of a settler party whose explicit goal is the expropriation and colonisation of the West Bank at the expense of the Palestinian population.

Hamas are, obviously, wedded to this ridiculous and genocidal notion that they can clear Israel of Jews.

> That said, I think it really is true that the fundamental reason there is no peace is that the Palestinians haven't given up on getting rid of all the Jews from Israel and getting all their land back, and thus keep choosing violence against Israel instead of accepting peaceful solutions.

And Israel persists in fostering the settler movement in the West Bank, forcing Palestinians into enclaves and reducing them to second class status in what is ostensibly their homeland.

>
Israel has shown itself willing to do so multiple times.

What is going on in the West Bank is not Israeli compromise.

Aren't there just plain too many books by now to browse? And the few browsable places are carrying fewer and fewer of them. (And I have complained before about online stores and library catalogs not being very browsable yet.)

And so I switched completely to third party recommendations. Sometimes very tenuous - but still better than other methods. I keep a deep file of notes such as "police in exotic places", "commando/secret agent/police stories from Egypt" - or "time travel, magic and bureaucracy".

In parallel, I keep notes on authors' writing style. I can then favor the ones I usually like and push down the list the ones that get on my nerves.

The cover is now irrelevant. - But perhaps will come back in some variant when catalogs become browsable again. Perhaps the new format will allow several images rather than just one. Perhaps will completely separate title and author from the cover? Will allow more than author and story blurbs? How will the cover evolve for the online-first world?
There's much more surrounding the USA's innovation engine than treating employees like shit. Perhaps would be good to look at what's working and what's not instead of just assuming that better protection for workers, which are the ones directly and literally creating the value, would cause a catastrophe.

Or please direct me to some literature supporting your opinion.

Yeah, technically it is called a recall because of NHTSA's terminology. But it's not a recall in traditional sense. It's an OTA, where customer's cars don't have to be physically recalled.

Time limits make sense and EVERYBODY agrees they are a good thing.

But if you want a shorter time-limit you should give a good rationale for it. Why you want it 6 weeks but not 1 week?

Whereas those who didn't propose any change to Roe vs. Wade do not really need a reason for NOT making a change. There must be a reason when we make or try to make a change.
AIUI, the main difference is that memory locations $0000 and $0001 are used for the 6510 i/o port. So dropping a 6510 in a system that makes use of those perfectly valid memory locations won't work either.

Notes on OpenPGP
Years ago, my dad owned and rented out some Section 8 houses in the hood. Tenants were single moms on welfare with usually 3 to 4 young kids.

Many times he'd knock on the front door after a call to fix the toilet or some such repair, be told to hang on for a sec, and a man would try to run out the back door and disappear.

This was the baby daddy (or a prospective one) being shooed out by the mom, because his presence was a risk to the single mom's welfare checks.

Hard to improve when the incentives are against it.
It's really not interesting. The Nvidia card is far superior.

You can kinda tell when at the grocery store. Anecdotally, a lot of "bulk-comfort" foods like potato chips, sodas, flavored waters, cereals, ... about doubled in price but now most of these items are almost permanently "buy 1 get 1 free" (sometimes but-1-get-3-free, the "old BOGO"). It's no longer a one-off reduction every couple weeks.

Consumers must have reduced purchases but companies don't want to backtrack on the price, thus they're always on sale without actually bringing down the base price.

I wonder if that affects inflation measurements as I don't know if the inflation basket is calculated based on individually marked prices or actual consumer spending.
"If you want something truly made by an individual artist one-by-one you are going to eventually have a hard time affording whatever that item is."

Yes! Especially an artist in a rich country. You're paying for the artist's time, and in rich countries that's very expensive.

On Etsy I found some great wood art from a Chinese artist, priced at a few hundred dollars.

I do like Etsy for household knick-knacks like napkin holders or nightlights or photo frames. I can go on Amazon and get some random made-in-China junk, or go on Etsy and with a little digging find something a bit more interesting at, say, $50. That's probably ten times what some Amazon dreck would cost but I can splurge on a napkin holder or photo frame.

I wouldn't mind an assembly-line hand-painted painting. I like the texture of hand-painted things instead of a print.
> "raid on RAID"

I see what you did there :)
Answering the question I immediately had, which I'm sure many of y'all will also have: can't they just fix it in software? The article covers that:

> It's important to note that this is an official safety recall, even if the fix is a software update. How the fix happens is immaterial to NHTSA's safety recall process; the point is that the public and owners are notified that there is a safety defect and that there is a remedy.
Yes, imagine if a individual did this and not a company. A individual would probably go to jail.

They have deep pockets - all they have to do is grind them down, and they win by default. What’s legal or not is practically irrelevant when you’re dealing with individuals vs a corporation.
It seems your opinion of outsourcing is outdated by at least a decade or two. Reminds me of this joke in Back to the Future, where young Doc Brown thinks Japanese tech is cheap and shoddy and Marty has to explain how things have changed.

Because if it's like outsourcing, then just like Japan and South Korea, over time China has transformed from "the cheap labor with low inconsistent quality" into the world's engineering hub which surpasses everything domestic in price, scale and quality... all three at the same time. The only reason companies try to diversify right now is because China is becoming ambitious and too powerful, and in case of a US-China conflict, they don't want to be left cut off from all their factories.

So if outsourcing to AI is like outsourcing to China, then we know where things are headed as well. Except faster.

I suspect that is temporary... V1 was an imitation engine, V2 is a reasoning engine. If it develops a world model and general understand about what humans like, a metaphysical understanding of it, then innovation is easy.
That's... likely illegal. Tips in the US absolutely must go directly to the employee, cannot be shared with management, and can only be pooled with workers without hire/fire authority. Maybe they're doing that, but I'm dubious.
Industry doesn't need slave labour, with people happy for any goodie their feudal lord feels like giving, for innovation.
Remember it about anything you’re excited by. The pursuit of the almighty dollar dilutes and ruins everything over time.
Yeah this might work for larger tech companies, but when I was working for a Series A startup and got laid off I got 2 weeks. Same thing happened to a friend as well.
