It sounds like you daily drive Haiku as your primary OS! Fascinating!

Do you dual-boot Linux or Windows at all?

I'm guessing you put up with one of them (or something made by Apple) at work...?
This project comes from the author of wyhash, which is now the default hashing algorithm in Go, Zig etc.

What's lacking is more information about the project. I was able to compile it and just started training on GPU, but I have no idea what's going on, when it will end, and what the characteristics are in general. Currently the only output I get is:

./train book-war-and-peace.txt
book-war-and-peace.txt 3.05397 1
para 1679360

I guess I need to dive into the source code in the meantime :)
Managers won't be surprised ... if they've read the 1981 book.

I think most people would be surprised to find negative correlation between individual ability and team ability, unless they've read this book or something like it. Weak correlation, perhaps, but outright negative correlation is truly surprising.

Well, you could try insurance/hedging. Then you either accomplish X or get your money back.

The risk of losing time remains though. If you want to lower that, you need redundancy: Outsource the project multiple times. That also costs multiple times as much though and still all of them might fail.
ECB would like to enable interoperability between "market DLT platforms" and the existing settlement mechanisms. In Europe the latter part is the TARGET Services: https://www.ecb.europa.eu/paym/target/html/index.en.html

You can ship a list of your dependencies too.

In my experience, VM centric deployment processes lead to extremely brittle programs.

But I mean, ye, if you got a brittle mess, you better use VMs for deployment. I am not against using that method, as long as I gotta admit I've made a mess.
Triply so when bad fuel is the obvious first guess.
He didn’t mention that the plea deal doesn’t care if you are innocent and even if you are innocence and are found innocent you might do 3 years in jail awaiting trial (bail is for wealthy people)
No because this uses real money
Maybe the bird is more nervous on the beach than flying around on the open water.

But it’s not even that flying takes little effort, it’s that it takes no effort. The bird does not use any of its own potential energy for flight, it extracts it from the wind gradient over the ocean in the course of flying, and turns it into kinetic energy. It would tire too quickly otherwise, and would be unable to make the transpacific journey to breeding grounds.
Some problems arise when users print large high resolution images. Printers often dont have the buffer to store it all and so it needs to be sent in chunks/streams etc. There are other examples this is just one.
Right. At least there's only one CSS specification isn't there? There's a whole heap of different assembler languages for different ISA's out there.

This report from the Australian Stock Exchange is indeed interesting, thanks! :-)
Oh take things very seriously! I’m a nerd, I’ve been gang stalked (New York). Went on for years of varying degrees of threat. I gained about ten pounds of muscles and changed most social habits.

What I question is your “rationale.”

You are spoiled and coddled in a society which overlooks you. Being noticed is the untowardly phenomenon, not just your money. You would be only so lucky if you could pay them off. And that would be that.

Think productively not as prey. Have you received outward indication? Take responsibility for yourself as a man (advice I risk negative karma for offering).

Keep a journal (they're good for you anyway). Here you can log times and places. Most of Europe is now blanketed in cameras, any conversations with authorities should include documentation, especially written statements. Authorities can blow off your paranoid recount, their competence is judged through the lens of paperwork. Due diligence and all. Writing will also help you maintain your own coherent narrative when the truth is so murky others will simply suggest you need psychological help.

Wake up. The world you lived in and love is a comforting lie. Your vigilance and paranoid awareness will only draw you deeper into the modern psycho-drama. The “others”, whoever they are will never again leave you alone. Don’t be bitter or scared, be proactive.
Wouldn’t that be “SoDo”? I agree it has a similar style to it however.
Redefining words to make vague insults doesn't actually progress discussion, and indeed can be a symptom of the very problem we're discussing - I'm better than everyone else and so their thoughts don't matter.

Intellectual and emotional skill development are very well recognised as two different spectrums these days.
Man sometimes I wonder if people on HN post "stupid" stuff on purpose. OP doesn't see how having something contained in a file (image) and something contained in 3D space (computer) are different just because one is run as a layer on top of another. Sure.
The website or service owners. If they can't afford it they should be out of business and do something else. The web is big enough for both humans and bots.
How can politicians make science- and data-based decisions without being scientists themselves?

They can’t, by definition, that’s why in those cases what ends up happening is the politicians just rubber-stamping policies set up by scientists/experts, as a matter of fact this past pandemic has just put that whole process in the spotlight.
Are there not thousands upon thousands of other similar apps?
The problem is that my dependencies depend on OS libraries, which then depend on my OS, which means I have to ship my OS, which... is what I'm doing.
I still find it weird / annoying that those commands don't get installed with prefixes by default. At least for awk it's common to have gawk, mawk, etc. installed explicitly. I wish it was common to similarly have bsdtar, gtar, etc.

At least in nixpkgs it's easy to reference the right version explicitly for each context, but everything else is a just guessing.
Um, not sure what you aim to solve here.

You are effectively increasing collision risk by an arbitrary amount by running hash output as input to a crc algorithm.

Kids, don't roll your own security.
A place to share real tips and support each other. Also a shoulder to cry for marketing fails.
This misses an explanation why the suit was brought against the wholesale providers, and not the retail electric companies. I would expect that in general if there a dispute over services rendered, you need to work things out with your supplier, and not someone else further down the chain.
Is there an answer for the short term? Last I checked, there are days where the sun doesnt shine and the wind doesnt blow; its going to take a long time to build enough batteries.
What are you talking about? A list of dependencies is less brittle than having a fully fledged env that is ready to go? In what world?

Even if you use hard locked versions of deps there is a whole multiverse of problems you can encounter when compared to having everything ready to go that is identical to your expectations.
In the North of England, yes.
This statement holds true on desktops but not on mobiles.

Apple cripples Safari (and other browsers) on iOS, and mobile ads are an abomination on all platforms if the user is not savvy enough to know how to block them.
That's so biased, it reads like xenophobia. Have you seen the state of trains, railways, bridges, etc. in the US? China is a much safer place to travel on bridges, rail, etc.
Welcome to Texas, where the state doeen't want to be responsible for anything, which makes me question why they exist in the first place.
Yeah there is this parallel universe where you draw in connections and work the room etc. to hustle your way to great jobs. I am sure it is good and all but every job hunt for me starts with a job board or search engine and a fresh cv.docx and off we go.

My pet theory is that all the people responsible for the things Microsoft did in the 1990s and 2000s moved to Google. Hence Chrome being the new IE, dreadful product names and endless product churn and rebranding. Google must have gone through at least as many chat apps as Microsoft went through media stores. Google Talk, Chat, Messages, Duet, Allo, Hangouts, Meet, Meet (original) vs. Microsoft PlaysForSure, Zune, Media Player, Live Music, Xbox music…
>But we don't do that. We don't know for sure that someone is innocent.

A basic principle of any civilised society is "innocent until proven guilty beyond reasonable doubt". I will not waste time explaining why this is important.

Has anyone faced any challenges integrating these tools with specific IDEs or version control systems? How did you address issues like plugin compatibility or build automation within these environments?
"Medium" itself is generally a good heuristic for trash that isn't worth the time reading.
In what way is it crippled?
Isn't this only true if there is no physical infinity? I know it's-turtles-all-the-way-down is impossible for our brains to comprehend, but causality breaks down when infinities are involved. Another thing is that if space-and-time itself was born at some point (as they say), then talking about "before" and causality doesn't make any sense either.

But yeah, to your point, thinking that there was never "nothing", and that there always was "something" is equally mindblowing.
Do they? When I move money between two accounts each in large banks it takes a day or more to clear. It would literally be an order of magnitude faster for me to walk to the a branch of one, withdraw, walk to a branch of the other to deposit than it is to move the money online.
I'm confused; aren't "Java, C#, Python, Ruby, Lua, and Javascript" examples of "memory-safe interpreted and bytecode languages"?
Maybe but if you are in the Bay area you have to get paid a Bay area salary. They could move out of SF but that's hard too. You have to change job but also get a new place, change doctors, your kids school, your partner might need a new job etc.
Never used stripe. Does that mean you set it up so it's totally independent from your SaaS? So you just send them a link, they pay, and you activate their account or so?
It may be juvenile but as a Dutch person “kut.org” and “kut news” is so surreal to read.

Maybe on point: as someone living in a country with relative big government and reaping the huge quality of life reward from it, I just can’t understand why people would want to create a society where you risk losing basic facilities such as electricity.

What happened in Texas is such a string of failures to actually govern and force companies to adhere to regulations, it’s crazy to me.

Every year, a variety of services and products delight us. Share what entertained you in 2023. I can't wait to see if any of the classics retained their thrones or if any new challengers emerged.
Honestly I really wish I could have my shell recognize this situation and highlight differences for me automatically. The number of extra steps and the low number of negatives you get promotes complacency.
This is a social problem not a technical one.

If elderly dies from cold weather in a blackout, the community and neighbours do not care for them. I guess most do however, but knowing many elderly, that stubbornly refuse to ask for help, it is probably hard to know if some neighbours are freezing to death.

The power company is way too far up the chain to check in on weak elderly.
Thanks. Considering Facebook only has 3B user worldwide. I say a social media platform with 1B user is extremely impressive.
> I don’t think it should be OpenAI deciding what is allowed or not though.

Avoiding lawsuits is what they are trying to do. They don't actually care about what you use their products for.
I would guess that companies are often exempt in cases such as natural disasters or extreme weather events and there are entities responsible to prevent things like this from happening. Electric Reliability Council of Texas sounds like such an entity.
Electrolysis is about 20% effective. That's why you don't really see hydrogen being seriously considered for grid backup.

Mass produced hydrogen comes from fossil fuels.

That said, I agree hydrogen might have a role in shipping and flight. Just not grid storage. LFPs and sodium chemistry are both cheap with a long life. That's what will more commonly be deployed.
You should learn ansible though, it's pretty transferable and works very well for non-cloud stuff too (in fact that's what it was created for!) It's pretty easy to use if you know shell. It might actually make your job easier.
I suspect that is by-in-large the point of the US de-regulatory project. If one deconstructs the state to the point of ineffectiveness then its existence is largely pointless and reasonably easy to discard for a newer state. Of course this presents an opportunity to form a new state in a more desirable configuration for involved parties.
Show HN: Habanero – terrible hot code deploys with Elixir
Majority of cases are settled by plea bargain 96% or something like that. It is used whether there is evidence or not, because it is fast and cheap.
"Having context" isn't the same as "having ownership or accountability".

Of course there needs to be communication and context, but when engineers start to try and direct the "what" or the "why", it becomes as absurd as PMs trying to dictate the "how".
> Taken together, these mean prosecutors generally don't have good enough evidence to put people away, which is the thrust of the article: it's easier to threaten someone into a confession than to have a proper trial.

Generally? No. Sometimes? Sure.

And yes, you could view it as a threat. That's the nature of a adversarial justic system. The same way that police will tell you they'll arrest you for standing on a sidewalk. It's often an empty threat.

It's why we provide legal services to defendants. So you can have a trained lawyer look at the evidence and tell you what you chances are of a not guilty verdict. Then the defendant can decide if a chance at not guilty is worth turning down a plea bargain.
This is one of the things I find quite surreal about the US. How is it not government's responsibility to ensure citizens have access to basic utilities?
Evaluating new software forges
It was also possible in earlier browsers by using hidden frames. User interaction or a timer would trigger, then you load the frame (which contained dynamically generated js) and then call the javascript you'd just loaded.
I was specifically talking about "ASIC resistant crypto mining".
Seems to me like "emergency" by definition is a state where it is unreasonable to expect that normal obligations can be met.
Obviously the printing situation has been a nightmare for everyone involved for years. That said, Microsoft et al have made me so cynical at this point that I can’t read about “protected printing”, “secure printing”, and “putting the user first” without assuming this is a way to put some DRM filters in place to make sure you don’t print out those locked PDFs regardless of what tool you’re using. I’ll be glad to be wrong.
The customer voice - represented by product managers - help join the dots.

It's a team sport, there needs to be communication, but there also needs to be clear areas of ownership.
Sometimes they're just actually behind too! I'm a professional organist, and recently made my continuo debut with a pretty high level orchestra. I wanted to make a good impression, so at the rehearsal, my eyes were glued to the conductor, he gave a clear downbeat, I came in with him...and was at least half a second ahead of everyone else. I was eventually able to figure out how to adjust, but those first few entrances were rough.

After the rehearsal, I mentioned it to my boss, and he confirmed it's his experience with orchestras as well. They're somehow able to come in together but definitely behind what the conductor shows, while organists are used to staying exactly with the beat pattern. He said it's particularly annoying for things like the Saint-Saëns Organ Symphony, where the organ's supposed to come crashing in on a huge chord directly with the orchestra.
Blue-ringed octopus, one of most toxic animals on Earth, bites teen after hiding
It also manages to have both command injection vulnerabilities (passing untrusted data directly to a shell) as well as json injection vulnerabilities (templating untrusted data directly into json).
That mindset made it impossible to upgrade from IE6, if you kept away from a dynamic front end it was a bit easier. That said the current landscape is worse, the javascript tooling can make old apps impossible to improve upon just 5 years after release unless you have continuously worked on it.
Thank you. I fully agree with every word you wrote.

This is absolutely fantastic, I love it!

I think I've found a (minor) bug, there seems to be an inaccuracy with the time stamps. I assume you're taking the chapter start and end times from the video themselves, but they don't align with the summary in this video:

https://www.videogist.co/videos/eevblog-102-diy-constant-cur...

For example, chapter 5, Heat Sink and Power Dissipation starts at 5:18 in your summary, but in the actual video it starts at 12:15.

EDIT:
I'm just now seeing that your summary only has 7 chapters, but the YouTube video is segmented into 13 chapters, so it appears you're not using them from the video after all. Are you doing the segmenting with the LLM as well? How do you get timestamps from that?
EDIT END

Anyway, thanks for this fantastic product, I was about to build something similar, but with a different focus:

Assume I've already seen a video and I want to look up a detail from that video, say how to do thermal calculations like in the example video, but I remember neither the video name nor the time stamp. I'm trying to build an app that generates embeddings for chunks / chapters of videos which I can then search semantically.

Do you have something similar planned? Because that's something I'd pay good money for.

Also, would you mind sharing a little bit about the tech stack? I'm assuming you're using yt-dlp to download videos with chapters and running whisper for a transcript, then something like gpt-3.5-turbo for summaries? Because that's how I'm doing it right now :D

This is clearly the best justice. Believe me. We have triumphed over evil like nobody has seen before. I believe it’s a rough situation over there. There’s no question about it. The past does not have to define the future. It’s idealistic, it’s wonderful, it’s a beautiful thing.
Projects aren't Fantasy Island. It's simply not reasonable to pretend something isn't true (i.e., you're accountable for your own projects) when it is. It's like saying, "The plane will fly because we're not going to believe in gravity anymore. Gravity is too inconvenient. Gravity be gone...".

Ultimately, this is a sign of poor management and leadership.

"Web Browsers really make poor client application runtimes for all but the most basic of things."

I found this the most amusing line of the post, given the current state of many staple desktop applications. Besides games, how many programs these days are designed to run natively on desktop as opposed to in a browser? It feels like the default is now browser-based!
I’d love to know whether the act of integrating your web browser and your file browser did in fact have any engineering-level benefits or if it was more like a big mess of impedance mismatch.
EPA: The typical life span of a windturbine is 20 years, with routine maintenance required every six months [1]

Renewable Energy Foundation: a new study, The Performance of Wind Farms in the United Kingdom and Denmark [2] shows that the economic life of onshore wind turbines is between 10 and 15 years, not the 20 to 25 years projected by the wind industry itself and used for government projections

Russia, China and India are operating breeder reactors, India and China are in the process of starting more. The French SuperPhenix commercial prototype was shut down on political grounds. The completed FBR in Kalkar (Germany) was never fueled, again on political grounds. From what I can see the reason for the limited deployment of FNR/FBR types is mostly based on political and ideological grounds. The fact that these reactor types can be used to create Plutonium which can be used to create nuclear weapons plays a large role as does the irrational fear of anything 'nuclear' in 'green' circles. The latter is becoming less relevant now that many 'green' politicos have seen the problems their anti-nuclear stance create in their own 'battle' against CO₂. The German 'greens' have not changed their ways yet which has led to the expansion of lignite use and with that lignite mining as well as a further deindustrialisation of Germany for lack of affordable electrical power.
