What's your opinion on old-school dedicated server hosting providers? They would handle all the hardware side for you, with an experience close to a virtual machine provider. No need to worry about the details of owning & running actual racks in a DC.
This was a year of implementing programming languages for me, mostly. I saw up close how a series of layers (or languages, if you will, that are mutually defined by virtual machines at the same level) on top of machine code (which is numeric and hence difficult for humans to use), each one more convenient than its predecessor, leads to bridging the gap between what is convenient for machines and what for humans.
Seems Cockroach DB has proven more resilient to name shaming.
Thanks for highlighting exactly what people actually mean when they initially try to talk about it with vague accusations of “most things classified as hate speech are actually harmless and they are just things that the overlords don’t like” and doing so in the exact manner I had said you would, complete with sock puppet accounts along the way.
There is benefits to not having to carry extra fuel, so it’s definitely not clear cut

Still wait for vol 5.
Lately I've noticed increasing visual fidelity is actively hurting my gaming experience. There's just too much stuff to look at and filtering things that are worth paying attention to from things that aren't is taking more and more effort. Take a game like Starfield where every desk has a hundred pieces of random garbage on it and may or may not have something really valuable, so you either spend half your play time staring at shelves or you miss out on that thing you needed.

Design counts for so much more than triangles. A Series X game character has twenty times the polygon count of an Xbox 360 character yet somehow Johnny Silverhand looks like plastic-skinned garbage compared to Marcus Fenix.
Indeed, and despite that being not too dissimilar to annual fossil fuel costs, that figure also assumes the batteries have to be replaced each year, it's probably more like every three to ten years.
>How many rotations do I go through?

0. Walking in a circle is different from spinning. They are 2 separate things that should be counted separately.

Adding them together should be a type error.
Show HN: Automated translation of the Lewis and Clark journals in French
Hi HN,

I was talking to my father about the Lewis and Clark expedition of 1804.

I found the original document (in the public domain) on the gutenberg project's webpage. I translated a couple of entries for him and he looked interested. Unfortunately I couldn't find any French translation of these work for him to read.

I then quickly wrote a couple of scripts to automate the translation and published the output.

https://github.com/Blizarre/lewis_clark_journal_french_trans...

I have been extremely impressed by the quality of the translation. GPT4 managed to handle effortlessly typos, OCR errors and old fashioned words.

This might be useful to others.
What a great story. We have a 3 year old Bernedoodle who resembles a walking sheep on stilts and is around 90 pounds. It is always a joy to take her out at pet allowing public places and see people’s faces just light up when they see her trotting around, tail wagging. She is friendly but also doesn’t greet strangers unless we initiate it. Never had to train her for that, she just always seems to know my comfort levels.
It also clears the mind if one clears out the easy ones first. It's like when I feel like working on the car, the first thing is clean the garage.

(If the reports come in faster than they can be fixed, of course one can never catch up regardless of the algorithm.)
I think you missed the point. The point isn't that these features don't have a purpose. The point is rather, at every line of code you have many choices that you arguably shouldn't need. Should I use a raw pointer or a unique_ptr or a smart_ptr. Do I need to call make_shared here or can I do something else? Should I call std::move here or not? Should pass by value or pointer or const pointer, or reference or const reference? And on and on, every line is a foot gun.

I get why it's that way, backward compatibility. The problem is, the original way, the path of least resistance, is now effectively deprecated, but it's the official syntax.

char* s = malloc(size);

is considered bad code. I get why. But, in a "good language" the default would do the right thing and I'd only escape into bad code by extra work so that all the easiest code to write did the right thing by default.

C++ is trying to fix all that old bad code by coding standards and linters but I don't want to have to type a bunch of boilerplate I need to memorize to do the right thing. I want the right thing to be the most obvious, no brain cells required path.
Fascinating, isn't it? There is something about storytelling in games that thrives on having a small group with creative control and seems to require a huge amount of effort.

But it is weird that we don't see better open source games, because good storytellers have no problems giving their work away for free. There is an overabundance of great writing on the internet. But taking a solid plot and turning it into a game engine just doesn't take.

I'll point at Return of the Obra Dinn as a nice example I played through recently. Very simple story (ship suffered a terrible fate), very simple mechanic (figure out who all the passengers were from visual clues). Individually all the ideas are so trivial it barely makes sense to talk about charging for them, and the engine isn't so amazing. But I've simply never seen an OSS game with that level of quality and storytelling. Which is actually highly weird given that I've seen both better quality storytelling and engines of similar or higher complexity made available as open source/free as a labour of love. There is something much more interesting than meets the eye going on in game development to do with the intersection of GUI complexity/difficulty of asset creation/stories.
Anything to back that up, except broscience?
That sounds rad. I bet however that most theaters are not looking at the console as a part of the performance, which is a missed opportunity imo.
This is a basis of argument from genetics back ported to climate science but I feel misses the bridge of causative linkage. Since we know two things are broadly contemporary it's a strong case but it's got heaps of unknown unknowns around it.

Which is a long winded way of saying "might" does a lot of heavy lifting.

Obviously terrible if correct. Highly harmful to species at large as well as society, we cling to coastlines as much as other species do.

Yep, for most large companies building their own capabilities is far more effective than outsourcing
Makefiles coordinate your shell scripts, using a dependency tree you'd have to reimplement if you did it purely with shell scripts.

For example:

A) You have a recipe that installs dependencies if they're not up-to-date (such as "pip install").

B) You have a recipe that compiles stuff if it's not up-to-date; it's made to depend on A.

C) "make" can be an interface recipe that depends on B and does nothing else.

D) "make test" can be an interface recipe that depends on B, then runs tests.

E) "make run" can be an interface recipe that depends on B, then actually runs the code / a webserver to interact with.

Nowadays whenever I put one of these together there's 2 versions of A (one for python, one for node), 1+ versions of B (webpack build without watch, maybe others depending on the project), 3 versions of D ("test-js", "test-python", and "test" that does both, and each of them only requires the relevant parts of A and B).

Makes it trivial to ensure you're up-to-date after a "git pull" without having to waste time waiting on things that don't need updating.

>Hopefully the RCS support also fixes the "oops, I bought an Android without turning off the magic parasite SMS replacement and now I'm banned from texting iPhones" problem.

Until RCS has native and mandatory encryption (for both 1-1 and group chats), it's just one more really poor attempt at data mining by all involved. Google claiming they want everyone to be all-in on RCS while simultaneously only supporting encryption through their non-standard extension is a bit of a joke.

Say what you will about Apple, at least they're pretending to care and insisting on it.

https://www.techradar.com/phones/iphone/breaking-apple-will-...

>Apple says it won't be supporting any proprietary extensions that seek to add encryption on top of RCS and hopes, instead, to work with the GSM Association to add encryption to the standard.

*Personally I think Apple should just create Messages for Android and charge $5/month or make it a part of their paid icloud offering and just embrace services. I get they want to sell iphones but it feels like they're in a bit of a RIM situation at the moment. You can keep fighting the inevitable but only for so long.

Ironically enough, if RIM had opened up BBM and email a decade earlier they might still be around today.
Yes, I was reading about it and I thought that it seemed very similar to LLMs at higher temperature models
You need an infinite universe to have infinite precision. The existence of transcendental numbers such as pi seem to indicate this is the case.

I have more than one email address associated with my Apple account. Within the iMessage app settings, I can select which email address(es) can be used to reach me over iMessage.

I guess (but have not verified) that OP's grandmother could solve her immediate problem by adding a second (secret) email address to her Apple account, and having that as the only address which receives iMessages.

(Not saying this is easy.)
Second part of the video is way more interesting, where he discusses how this toy problem actually relates to how we define what a year is depending on whether we look at the stars or at what's on Earth.
Cool, now I can recommend it to female devs to learn, without anyone getting uncomfortable.

With the growth of lean, I suppose its time to get more serious in popularizing and attracting community instead of trying to pursue harmless chuckles.

And I immediately get labeled as a "tranny protector".
I'm not from the western world and we do not have the same cultural issues.

What I meant is, in a world where English nevertheless dominates as a common language by far, perhaps naming matters in the English context much more than any other language, particularly when building something for everyone.

Edit Edit:

I mean I had no idea there were such strong feelings of what i suppose is being perceived as American/English cultural interference that's felt so strongly by the French.

Maybe that's what Africans feel who were colonised by French Coqs (national animal)?

I now completely agree it is a brilliant idea to name something "cunt" in honour of Louvre Cuntadoodleur. :D
because 'computer' has a meaning now that it didn't have 65 years ago, and people are continuously getting confused by thinking that 'analog computers' are computers, as they understand the term 'computers', which they aren't; they're a different thing that happens to have the same name due to a historical accident of how the advent of the algorithm happened

this is sort of like how biologists try to convince people to stop calling jellyfish 'jellyfish' and starfish 'starfish' because they aren't fish. the difference is that it's unlikely that someone will get confused about what a jellyfish is because they have so much information about jellyfish already

my quest to get people to call cellphones 'hand computers' is motivated by the same values but is probably much more doomed

You need good system 1 to recognize when the LLM is wrong.

But your explanation makes sense, it also helps explain why you see so many post LLM responses they say are correct and proof the LLM can solve the problem, but then the thing they posted is bonkers and wrong. If those people lack a good system 1 it explains all of that, also helps explain which kind of person likes to work with LLMs.

He mentions that the word revolution has specific meaning in astronomy which doesn't make any sense in the context of this problem.
>I would like a super lightweight host process for interpreters that is similar to php-fpm

This. It's an area where PHP really pulls ahead. php-fpm has preload, persistent db connections, worker pre-warm, etc. all built in- all of these optimisations combined makes CGI very viable.
What I really want to get from the new era of machine learning we supposedly are coming through is human-quality self-hosted text-to-speech and speech-to-text so I would be able to listen to text ebooks and convert big podcasts and video/audio lecture courses to text making it easy to search through them and quote phrases from them. Is this it? Whatever I could find so far were either significantly worse than a human could do or expensive online services.
A non-native speaker friend of mine long ago would say he needed to "make some shoppings." I still tend to say that when I go shopping.

Is a legit concern, but biodiversity does not work like that.

To start, predators block the spreading of diseases that would kill its preys.

Wolves will also reduce the amount of common preys, creating opportunities for the less common preys, will reduce the number of small predators and probably exile them to the frontiers of its territory, will boost tree grow, and will create new temporary ecosystems based on carcasses.

This last can seem gross, but it sustain thousands of invertebrates and help raptors and small vertebrates to survive winter
The problem here was too little testing, not too much. If they tested the students on music before they started they would have been put in classes where they belong and they could have gotten the teaching they needed.
I thought that we had some new hard evidence, or revelation. So does this mean we still don’t know, or is there a considerable skew to one side in the statistical meaning, like in the case of eating red meat, or climate change, but as with everything there are contradicting studies?

Sure. One of the "Surprisingly Turing-Complete" examples is that "Magic: the Gathering: not just TC, but above arithmetic in the hierarchy ".

See https://arxiv.org/abs/1904.09828 for the preprint "Magic: The Gathering is Turing Complete", https://arstechnica.com/science/2019/06/its-possible-to-buil... for an Ars Technica article, and https://hn.algolia.com/?q=magic+turing for the many HN submissions on that result.

During WW2, the aircraft engine makers needed to make the engines more reliable. They'd put them on a test stand, and run them at full power until they broke. They'd investigate what broke, improve it, and run the engine until the next thing broke. Etc.

That's how to make things reliable.

19 cycles isn't a lot for reliability testing. I'm not a test engineer, but it'll likely take hundreds of launches to get them really solid.

"Hybrid computer" cannot be considered as a standard term, because it has been used ambiguously in the past.

Sometimes it has been applied to the kind of computers mentioned by me, with a digital control part and a completely analog arithmetic part.

However it has also been frequently used to describe what were hybrid arithmetic parts, e.g. which included both digital registers and digital adders and an analog section, for instance with analog integrators, which was used to implement signal processing filters or solving differential equations.

IMO, "hybrid computer" is appropriate only in the second sense, for hybrid arithmetic parts.

The control part of a CPU can be based only on a finite state automaton, so there is no need for any term to communicate this.

On the other hand, the arithmetic part can be digital, analog or hybrid, so it is useful to speak about digital computers, analog computers and hybrid computers, based on that.
The great thing about the AI age is that we are once again performance constrained so people start to rediscover the lost art of actually optimizing a program or runtime (the last such age were the waning days of ps2. Those guys made GoW 2 run on 32 megs of ram ... respect)
I don't see anything related to IP protection. For example, if I log out and log in with another user, can I upvote a comment? If so, this can lead to vote manipulation. Browser fingerprints are useless if the user is using Adblockers or an extension stripping that information while submitting data.

What is preventing vote manipulation here? Signing up is so easy without email so I think there should be something.
The booster does have a monetary value, they are estimated to cost ~ $50M. Not sure if flights make them less or more valuable. SpaceX likes to use wording with a positive connotation – "flight proven" instead of, say, "refurbished".

Of course, the new ones are better, so B1058 was outdated, which should lower its value.
Many titles I end up watching are on Freevee anyway
This was discussed in a twitter spat between Musk and ULA's CEO Tory Bruno a few years ago.

Back then the go-to excuse for why other companies weren't pursuing reuse was that it'd take 10 flights to break even in terms of making up for the lost payload capacity. They claimed that since they were only launching like 10 times a year, this would make it so they don't have to produce any boosters for years, screwing things up for the assembly line. Back then SpaceX was still not as firmly established in the industry, so this was them basically claiming to know better than the "new kids".

Musk countered by roughly explaining the reductions they have to take (iirc 15% payload lost for the landing fuel and 10% for the extra hardware) and explained that with their costs, they've made up for that by the 3rd launch.

Of course since then megaconstellations came about and other geopolitical situations caught all the other big launch providers off guard leaving F9 as basically the only ride available with any spare launch capacity (even with Vulcan and Ariane 6 not too far off, they're fully booked for quite a while). Proving that the benefits outweigh the costs.

The proven way to fly people to the moon and back using such low-powered computers was to have a supporting cast of thousands who were naturally well qualified using their personal slide rules to smoothly accomplish things that many of today's engineers would stumble over using their personal computers.

Plenty of engineers on the ground had no computers, and the privileged ones who did had mainframes, not personal at all.

A computer was too valuable to be employed doing anything that didn't absolutely need a computer, most useful for precision or speed of calculation.

But look what happens when you give something like a mainframe to somebody who is naturally good at aerospace when using a slide rule to begin with.
