Great visualization. Thank you for sharing.
> EDIT: ah okay, you thought it was $600/month?

Yeah, complete brain-o on my part.

We have several dedicated servers with Hetzner, but nothing like a $600/month one. :)
I still connect a piezo to the speaker port of the motherboard front panel block.

Cases don't have the speakers anymore, but boards fortunately still have the port.

This is true. Especially considering a "week" isn't tied to any specific astronomical phenomenon, unlike the day, month or year.

Maybe it succeeded because it's not tied to an astronomical phenomenon, and so we aren't tempted to botch it with "leap days" and whatnot.
Do you invoice them anyway and zero out your fee, or just do the work for free and don't invoice them?

Nope, those are very different. Fundamentally the reason that LLMs hallucinate is because they are predicting the next most likely word. It would be expensive to find a way to remove outputs where P truth is low, but it's not completely implausible like removing software bugs.
And yet they made a whole movie about it, with Bruce Willis, Milla Jovovich, and Gary Oldman.

Unfortunately a lot of 'special interests' are trying as hard as they can to turn that culture war into a genuine hot war - which I don't feel anyone has any real appetite or need for - and all/most of the media seem to be playing along.

he's wrong that "shit" is the most complicated word in english. That would be "jawn" - an adjective, noun, verb and more all in one little 4-letter package, which is also true of "shit", except that nobody not raised in Philadelphia knows the true scope of "jawn".
>Twitter is still running and it has a business trajectory that looks positive (subscriptions are great)

I'm generally a fan of Musk, I'm glad he bought Twitter, I drive a Tesla etc. but this looks like delusion to think this.

Twitter is not doing well. Musk cut too fast and too deep, and it shows with the number of outages and problems Twitter has had. It wasn't a few months ago that they had to rate limit everyone from scolling their feed for a day, they had hours of downtime this last month alone.

This is not good for a company that makes its money by serving ads, which it also has seemed to be bad at. Running a blogging site isn't that hard, but runnign your own adnetwork is, and Twitter is doing a pretty bad job.

They are losing quite a lot of moeny according to Musk(!!!).
This often comes up in such discussions, but no, both "y'all" and "all y'all" are plural. They're useful for distinguishing between smaller and larger groups. For instance, if a couple of members of a family are visiting, you could say "you" (the person you're speaking to), "y'all" (the whole group visiting), or "all y'all" (you and the rest of your family who aren't here). Or if multiple groups are visiting, "y'all" might be one group and "all y'all" might be everyone.
A few job postings that I've seen actually require me to post a LinkedIn profile to hit the "submit" button. I suppose I could put some placeholder text in there like "N/A", but I feel like that would put me immediately on a waitlist.
It's normal now, and as you mention "limited liability" now applies to all corporations. As grandparent poster mentioned, however, this sort of capability originally required a special dispensation from the crown (or an act of Congress). Some examples are the "East India Tea Company", which was effectively one of the colonial arms of the British government.

At some point we decided that this sort of thing should be available for everyone with the money and time to file the appropriate paperwork. It's really odd though since you can avoid things through incorporation that you can't avoid through other means -- debts that would carry through bankruptcy, and even many criminal issues (at least if they don't rise to the level to pierce the corporate veil).
I think that one's used more ironically, now

Moderation isn’t so clean-cut that elegant rules like “no EXPLICIT support”. You’ll have people who spend all day ducking around these rules to say IMPLICITLY hateful things and it’ll cause a furor over legitimate grievances with the moderation.

I recall back during the furor over drawing Mohammad peoppe an extremist Muslim group said about Matt stone/trey Parker that they "will probably wind up like Theo van Gogh". Is allowing that sort of speech, what appears to be a death threat in response to free expression, protecting free speech? Or is it enabling a culture of self-censorship due to fears of violent reprisals? Things are complicated, you must be flexible.

In this case, I want to be reasonable. I have heard people use “from the river to the sea” in hateful ways many times. People seem legitimately upset by it and are not just putting on airs. It doesn’t advance the discourse in a productive way.
Took the teeth out of that one. Why not put it all in /home? Why not just put the sink in /stuff and link everything back?
Thanks for the good explanation. I'm not at all a pilot, but I'd also like to add a link to a piece I read that illustrates the difference, called 178 seconds to live: https://www.cfidarren.com/r-178seconds.htm

The TLDR is that flying into instrument conditions as a pilot with only VFR training is really seriously dangerous. In a study, 20 trained pilots who did so in a simulator all crashed within minutes.

It's easy to picture, once you start feeling scared and disoriented and overwhelmed, wanting to discount what your instruments say versus what your natural senses tell you.

I get the feeling that doctors aren’t really trained for more than half of the stuff they need to know. Trauma informed care is a joke, yet a huge proportion of people have a history of multiple adverse childhood experiences, and these have very real effects on health. And any chronic illness that doesn’t have an easy biomarker is a complete unknown to most doctors. They just throw up their hands and say the bloodwork is normal, you must be fine.

I don’t know how doctors can be trained for twelve years and have so little understanding of health. And yet they have such confidence in their abilities.

Yeah, nowadays it is owned by Idera, though AFAIK Embarcadero bought the entire CodeGear division from Borland and then Idera bought Embarcadero.
..."The development and
deployment of armed forces specifically
equipped and trained for COIN operations."

Right now, the US has too much of that. Wars against peer or near-peer enemies need less counter-insurgency operations and more heavy equipment.

The US has become used to operating in environments where air superiority was total, and secure base camps were possible. That's over.

The US Army takes this seriously. Read Parameters, the War College journal, which has many articles on this subject. Here are two.[1][2] It's a major argument within the US military.

There are some serious mismatches in preparation. The USMC has a great concept of a MAGTF - a Marine Air Ground Task Force, usually carried in an amphibious assault ship. This is great for COIN - the ship can go somewhere in a hurry, park offshore, and send out landing craft and air support, while acting as a mobile base. This works great against an enemy with nothing capable of attacking such a ship. Less well against an enemy with truck-mounted anti-ship missiles.

The Army has too many vehicles intended to resist improvised explosive devices, and not enough heavy artillery and tanks. The Army is also used to being able to set up rear area bases in the open, and fortified fire bases in hostile territory. Those now look like soft targets.

The USAF is used to being able to fly cargo planes such as C-130s into combat zones.
This now looks suicidal where everybody has anti-aircraft missiles. Today, if it flies over a combat zone, it had better be able to dodge, jam, and fight. Or be expendable, like a drone.

One of the lessons of the Ukraine war for the Navy is that you can't bring naval vessels near a hostile shore any more. Not since the Moskva.

Pascal was the first language I tried in my youth, it has forever imprinted my understanding of programming. I'm both immensely thankful and perplexed by it.
Can you link some of those papers?
I think that's untrue and unfair. I don't think anyone quite knows what attention is so completely as to simplify it to "just a kernel smoothing". For a great example, the Transformer Circuits team have 2022 research showing a bit more detail about how attention heads work in toy models: https://transformer-circuits.pub/2022/in-context-learning-an...

I think the original intuition for attention was noting long-term information decay occurring in RNNs and realizing how in seq-to-seq language translation models you often need to "attend" to different parts of the input stream in order to match to the next output token, i.e. languages sometimes put functional words in different orders. Transformer Attention as we know it today was one of a few competing models, iirc, for trying to handle this issue.

To that end, lots of kernel smoothers have been designed and tested, but attention came out of a line of research aimed to provide explicit degrees of freedom to allow recurrent neural networks to make use of a larger "memory" through analogy to how computers have read and write capabilities on shared state.
I don't invoice them. The outfit is really small. I am an officer of the 501(c)(3), though.

I've found that most non-tech folks don't have any idea how much it costs to have real talent working for them (or even crap talent). I don't feel like arguing about it. I can't declare it, so it's not worth the agita.
Interesting, thanks for the heads up. I will implement the following safeguard:

* Known: Paper DOI, paper PMID, author last name, author initials

* Get connected ORCIDs based on the DOI / PMIDs

* Check if the known last name matches the last name of the ORCID profile (also include the "Also known as" section of the profile)

This may lead to some false negatives (for example in case of name changes that were not properly recorded) but if I can reduce the amount of manual lookups to a number below 100, it's already a win.

What would be so wrong with the people mandating a next generation messaging standard and requiring all cell phone manufacturers add support for the new standard? Kind of like Europe did with charging cables. Would that make the world a better or a worse place?

I never said anything about making iMessage the only available option. Apple users could keep iMessage, too. Worst case their users have more options.

I agree that it is an interesting question on how far the will of the people goes, i.e. democracy vs mob rule. But I wouldn't put corporate profits on a pedestal over all other considerations.

I think people tend to recommend X these days as the first one for newcomers primarily because it has voice acting and relatively modern graphics, so it's more approachable in that respect. X is my favourite FF, alongside VII, but that doesn't mean it's best at everything, even compared to other FFs. For me, its strength is primarily in its storytelling (which includes things like writing, music and cutscenes) - but all that really takes quite a while to fully reveal itself. I don't personally actually think too highly of X's gameplay. The turn-based combat and the sphere grid are ok, but for me not the best even in the FFs (though I know quite a few people who consider it the best, so it's all personal taste). The temple "puzzles" are terrible. It has some truly terrible minigames (although Blitzball is really great - it just has a terrible tutorial). And it's not as if there are no flaws with the storytelling either - the party members are not on the whole as good as in some of the other FFs, and it was the first FF with voice-acting, so there were some infamously awkward moments. But its storytelling highs are some of the highest I've ever experienced in games - I am still in awe of the sheer beauty of some of its best moments. I mean, it's a game about a giant whale, that makes many people sob their eyes out, fall in love with it, get tattoos for it, etc. But that is also very much personal taste. Are you enjoying the music? Did you like the music and the environment in Besaid? Did the scene of Yuna performing the sending do anything for you in Kilika?

Show HN: I Made a Christmas Quiz
For the last couple of years I've created a Christmas quiz, which you can read about and play here: https://www.lloydatkinson.net/projects/2022/christmas-projec....

This year I created another quiz, this time general Christmas questions.

Like last year the tech I used:

- Astro

- React

- TypeScript

- Framer Motion for the animation

- A Netlify function that saves and loads the scoreboard from Azure Table Storage

Unlike last year which was somewhat easy to cheat on by Googling, this time, the longer you take to answer a question the fewer points you get.

I hope you have fun and a great Christmas

>The user-specific state is (and should be) in each user's home directory, not scattered around in a bunch of system-wide directories, one for each application...

I disagree with this because state is owned by the program so it would make the most sense for it to live in the directory for the program. A user can tell the program that they want to modify the state, but ultimately the program has total ownership of its state. The program should not be leaching into user's home directory to read and write files and should be restricted to directories it owns.

>I'd be interested to know who gets to manage the user-specific state in your proposal.

One way to do it would be for the program to manage it.

>Does each app have it's own per-user directory for each user?

It could choose.

>if you have 1000 apps and 10 users, do you need exactly 10,000 user-specific directories?

This is unrealistic. On the want majority of computers an app will only be run by 1 user. Focusing on handling multiple users is a more special case and is a distraction from the point I'm trying to make.

We use architects for what you've described. It's a distinct technical track from developers and from team leaders. They're usually senior developers with outstanding experience in multiple technologies. They deal with technical design, specification and documentation. They sit in-between the product owner and the team in the story flow. The PO feeds the team with user stories and priorities, the architect fills in the technical spec, developers choose the implementation and provide the time estimates, QA uses the spec to test.
