> Consider that right now a docker container can't be relied upon to contain arbitrary malware, exactly because the Linux kernel has so many security issues and they're exposed to containers.

No, Docker container was never meant for that. Never use containers with untrustable binary. There is Vagrant and others for that.
I've heard this term being used (and I have used it myself) as a dog-whistle to signal how racist others are that are using it.

so if one says Britain (the US, or some other place that used to do very well) is turning into a s-hole country the message and accuse goes right back at them. In this case the (racist[1]) Brits who pushed for Brexit, and by doing so have transformed themselves into a s-hole country.

in that case it is still a dog-whistle for racists but the tune that is produced is 100% an insult against the people who deserve to hear it.

Gnome has a syntax highlighting sub-system that editors like Xed and Pluma use, with .lang files somewhere iirc, regex based, can do keyword and literal highlighting quite nicely. Limited to Gnome of course, but good for experimentation. Maybe Windows/Mac/other Linux has something similar.

Sick and tired.
But this is working. It seems that many developers actually want to do/use/learn whatever their peers are. Just look at all the tweets and reddit posts starting with "What should I use...?" or "What is the best...?.

Is there a high res versions of the images? I want to see the "imperceptible differences" myself.
I am surprised, that these are not called oreutils.
I read the article before I posted this, but that doesn't fix the misleading headline (here or there).

I don't look at this charitably. GPUs have several functions:

1) Driving monitors. If I want a dozen word processor windows open at the same time, I don't need a thousand CUDA cores, but I do need enough ports

2) Acceleration. This costs more money relative to CPUs today. Most people don't do much that requires this (although this might change with SD, LLMs, etc.)

3) Offloading bus load. Things like screen refresh, for an iGPU, requires constant access to main memory. On a GPU, there is dedicated graphics memory. A server showing a lock screen has constant bus load with an iGPU, but not with a dedicated graphics card.

... and so on.

As a footnote, fundamentally, what I would prefer is an architecture where I have:

* A normal frame buffer (of the type common in late nineties $20 graphics cards);

* A dedicated accelerator (many NVidia cards for server use don't even have graphics ports; they're GPGPU-only); and

* some kind of high-speed interconnect

At this point, I'm not sure there's much connection between CUDA cores and driving a graphics port. Driving a 4k display at 60 frames per second is about 1 GBps (upper-case B), so it's not a lot of interconnect in 2020-terms for a framebuffer and an accelerator to talk to each other.

Framebuffers ought to be simple and generic. There's no reason why GPU driver issues should introduce security or stability issues, or why I shouldn't be able to do multihead with different brands.
"Shithole country" is also a summary judgement of a country's overall condition (GDP, safety, government, corruption, etc). That some pundits called it a "racist dog whistle" doesn't necessarily make it so.

What's actually racist (well, technically: "culturally imperialist") is to consider the provincial concerns of US internal politics as some kind of universally applicable yardsticks. People all over the world have used words to the same effect way before Trump and will do it way after Trump.

If anything, one could easily call parts of the US a "shithole country" regardless of their racial breakdown. In many parts of the word, locals will gladly admit it for the status of their own (whether racially homogeneous or not) country too.
> activism of those who don't want to be surveilled.

The tricky bit, as with most UK law'n'order politics, and the rightwing playbook in general, is dealing with how people want other people surveilled. Fear of crime and immigration narratives drive a demand for "something to be done" and "more powers".

The ECHR is pretty weak against surveillance (https://www.echr.coe.int/documents/d/echr/fs_mass_surveillan...), but it has been used in some cases to reduce it. But see how unpopular ECHR is in the UK - because it applies to humans, not just citizens, and there's a lot of people who want the state to be lawless against non-citizens.
That expression has been very common in the UK for decades with no dog whistle aspect and, as some one who lives here, there still isn't a dog whistle connotation ... the expression just means run down, dilapidated and a bit ... well, shit.

Remember Trump wasn't world president so not everything exports across the Atlantic.

Both of the above would probably come across as culturally insensitive but in the other direction.
People who don't live in the US won't be up-to-date with American slang, especially if they don't live in an English-speaking country. It means the country is a shithole: "A very dirty, poor, and unpleasant place" [1].

Britain's infrastructure is noticeably decaying — potholed roads, buildings in a poor state of repair (let alone well-insulated etc), litter, old buses and trains, homeless people sleeping on the street. There's more of this the further one travels from London.

You are not missing anything. Things like these are mainly virtue signaling and the decision makers are indifferent to the consequences for us, is my take.
"I've nothing to hide, I lost all my whatsapp messages when I changed phone" seems to be the common response.

What are the consequences you speak of? The entire point is "they can't make fast chips for a few years"; we are preparing for confrontation.
Walk around any Chinese city and you’ll see hundreds of small businesses, as well as evidence of massive conglomerates.

That the state reserves the right to interfere as it sees fit doesn’t make it not capitalist. Unless the current chip war is evidence of America being not capitalist.
I strongly believe that dropped coffee mugs are also positively correlated with lack of awareness/attentiveness. It seems weird to contemplate that they would be uncorrelated or negatively correlated. (I would expect that phone usage also positively correlates as a major category/source of distraction.)

Same is true of rear-end collisions/accidents/unscheduled bumper modifications.

I have seen that shaming sometimes works, so I wouldn't abandon it. After all, there are so few social deterents we can use that I only say "that won't work" when I have a better suggestion.
So not only is this going to completely fuck entire economies, and eventually lead to the end of civilization, it's going to make the world a much more drab, depressing and boring place in the meantime ?

Stop burning the fucking fossil fuels for god sake.

No military implications, huh? Just anti-China virtue signaling?
> right to a personal life unscrutinized by an overreaching state.

If it was just the state, then I might even be able to live with it, as my trust in my government is rather high, even if I do agree with your second paragraph on principle.

The problem though is that lax/non-existent privacy laws also allow Joe in marketing and his friends to do all kinds of creepy privacy-invading things, which I worry about much more. It fosters a mentality and culture around how to get the easiest to those who are most susceptible to whatever it is your peddling, and in today's day and age of social media I think it's fair to say that it's increasingly clear that that kind of culture isn't exactly a net favor for humanity as a whole.

It's probably naive from me but I'm honestly much more worried about big tech and their nonchalant approach to privacy than I am about dangers of my government going full surveillance state. The two issues are of course not entirely separate either, they're very much intertwined.

Ollama AI code completion plugin for VSCode, 100% free and 100% private
Hello everyone!

I wanted to share something exciting I've been working on. After exploring various local alternatives to Copilot, I found that many required logins, proxies, or just didn't meet expectations. This inspired me to create my own solution.

After 132 commits, I'm now using this tool in my role as a front-end software engineer at a prominent cryptocurrency exchange. It's been an invaluable asset in my daily work.

Here are some details about the hardware compatibility: I use an Nvidia 3090, and the performance with Ollama codellama-13b is impressively swift. It's a great relief not to face the rate limiting issues common with Copilot. Additionally, I'm utilising codellama34b-instruct for the chat functionality. Its performance is on par with GPT-4, surpassing GPT-3.5 in quality. My friend has tested it on an Apple M1 Pro with great success.

If you're curious or looking for a reliable Copilot alternative, feel free to check it out at the link provided. Your feedback would be greatly appreciated.

I'm also looking for help with contributions, collaborations so reach out if you're interested. More features and updates to come in 2024.

Cheers!
>It's like the population is told that "bad people drink water, therefore we should poison the water" and they buy into it completely. The country (as mentioned before) is on the decline for sure, but the standards decline much faster than they should largely I think because people are protectionist in mentality.

State use of propaganda has been perfected over the last century. The go-to emotion is fear. Next time you read the paper or watch it on TV, note how many stores are trying to instill fear.

Read some articles from 10 or 20 years ago and see how blown out of proportion the fear mongering actually was and realize you've been under a constant state of that for your entire news consuming life.
Thanks a lot, this is roughly the path I was also hoping to take and happy to hear it's not unfounded. I am planning on a python backend though which does both add more documentation in some ways but adds performance issues in others. But I'll be happy to worry about the performance problem when it arises!

My goal is also to try and create an app that I don't expect to immediately be successful so it has to be cheap to run in the long term!

Oh, no, what a tragedy.

Like, seriously, "our business model relies on stealing all the art in the world, therefore it is right and proper that we do that" is a bit of a Bond villain take, when you think about it.
The best ever implementation of Tetris was Twintris on Amiga. The Soviet Union flag with bouncing hammer, then wonderful music and smooth animation, exploding sounds when clearing full rows - oh, my. Go and watch a bit of it on YouTube.
You're right; performance of the current blc runtimes leaves much to be desired.
I'm hoping to rectify this in the future with a combinator based runtime in the style of the ION machine [1]. But that provides only limited relief when you're still partly bound by the shackles of Malbolge.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and state that the Flow image for King's Cross (https://github.com/anisotropi4/kingfisher/blob/main/image/K/...) does not, in fact, reveal the location of Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry.
No offense, but you seem to have an extremely narrow view of what art is and who works in that field. Have you literally never once looked at the credits of a video game or even a movie? Do you not know what art is at all?

Have you really never watched television or looked at a magazine and simply not considered the people who make these things?
Incidentally I have, sitting next to me, a freelance publishing contracts manager who works contract rights for Hachette and other big players.

Anyway, the problem in the industry, from my point of view (very opinionated):

- The market has-not-priced-in-demographics! Still! Blinkered to the aging readership.

- False expectation of revival or sustaining market size.

- Often the wrong channel/medium. Much non-fiction & fiction simply doesn't need or benefit from traditional publishing houses.

- Industry is still in the process of acknowledging (or is hiding the fact) that brands are so dependant on celebrity names. Celebrity authors are bolstering statistics and making it look more lucrative to the average Joe than it really is.

- Clinging on to old worldviews on IP, to the detriment of innovation.

- Very much haven't got their head around LLM / prior art changes that are forcing us to be less litigious in the coming years.

My associate is more conservative than me, and is also far more knowledgeable than me of course.

I also note the consolidation of publishers was at full throttle this past decade.
The US and other places can be like that too. Strict if you have something to lose, but not enough to protect yourself. Lawless if you have nothing to lose, or enough to protect yourself.

So bottom 20% and top ~5% to 10% are golden, middle 20% to 60% are hoping (dreaming?) to make it up a few deciles, and 60% to 90% are hoping to make it to top 10%. And until they make it there, they have to dot their i’s and cross their t’s.
It doesn't work like that, because the justification they respond with is that if they make things public then criminals will know how to better hide their illicit activities. Or something along the lines of "we're having closed door meetings for the safety and security of the people"...
Too many teams I know still log into the database to migrate manually for many SaaS apps and the most well intentioned apps still have unexpected downtime so I don't see how a minute of scheduled downtime at 3 am can be a bad thing!
Are you saying it needs to be more like CoCom to matter?
I think waiting to punish someone 15 years later for a crime is silly.

> if Linux had been built with safety in mind security would be a lot simpler

I'm replying simply because you're getting defensive with your edits, but you're missing a few important points, IMO.

First of all, the comment I quoted falls straight into the category of if only we knew back then what we know now.

What does it even mean "built with safety in mind" for a project like Linux?

No one could predict that Linux (which was born as a kernel) would run on billions of devices that people keep in their pockets and constantly use for everything, from booking a table at the restaurant to checking the weather, from chatting with other people to accessing their bank accounts. And that said banks would use it too.

Literally no one.

Computers were barely connected back then, internet wasn't even a thing outside of research centers and universities.

So, what kind of safety should he have planned for?

And to safeguard what from what and who from who?

Secondly, Linux was born as a collaborative effort to write something already old: a monolithic Unix like kernel, nothing fancy, nothing new, nothing experimental, just plain old established stuff for Linus to learn how that kernel thing worked.

The most important thing about it was to be a collaborative effort so he used a language that he and many others already knew.

Did Linus use something more suited for stronger safety guarantees, such as Ada (someone else already mentioned it), Linux wouldn't be the huge success it is now and we would not be having this conversation.

Lastly, the strongest Linux safety guarantee is IMO the GPL license, that conveniently all these Rust rewrites are turning into more permissive licenses. Which steers away from what Linux was, and still largely is, a community effort based on the work of thousands of volunteers.
Less "heavy industry" and more insulation.
I suspect cost/efficiency is a driving factor. Existing layered NN designs seem quite local, with fewer long-range connections than brains have. I'd bet that updating non-local weights increases memory requirements, slows down computation by orders of magnitude, or both.
Are the crimes being ignored by the media still being tried in court?
> But they're not going to nail a self-driving car for DUI, drugs, weapons, etc.

Not the DUI, sure, but there’s no reason why you wouldn’t be able to place drugs and guns in the trunk of the car and send it along its way to the buyer’s location.

> applying them to Cruise or Waymo in the aggregate doesn't make sense

Why not? As you said, they’re all presumably using the same software so it’s as if the same driver was in all of them. It would also be a way to put pressure on companies to grow slowly and get it right, which is a positive for society.
Update: OneUptime – open-source StatusPage.io, Incident.io, Loggly alternative
OneUptime (https://github.com/oneuptime/oneuptime) is the open-source alternative to StausPage.io + UptimeRobot + PagerDuty. It's 100% free and you can self-host it on your VM / server.

NEW UPDATES: Here are some of the updates since I last posted on HN.

- Log Management is launched! You can now use OpenTelemetry to store logs in OneUptime. We're also adding fluentd support soon so you can ingest logs from anywhere.
- We're now working on Traces and Metrics more APM features coming soon.

- After hearing feedback from this community, we're in the process of merging all of 20 different oneuptime containers into one so it's easier for people to self host and takes a lot less resources. This is already midway and should be complete by end of Feb.

- Docker Compose file is in the repo and Its now on ArtifactHub: https://artifacthub.io/packages/helm/oneuptime/oneuptime and you can try it out on your K8s clusters.Looking forward to hearing what you all think!

- We hear you! Please let us know what features you're looking for and we will build it for you.
>the exceptions to that are mostly related to finance or national security sensitive industries.

Yes, those things are off limits. Now, how do you define what's finance or national security? Whatever they need to control (the US does this too).

All of these "China is a free market" comments are funny; their capital markets are closed, you can't freely move money in and out without government permission.
Live with It for a While
Does this matter? Rust and Zig have no standard. Each has fewer compilers than C has compilers that ship these headers.
I have it running under a n270 netbook with CWM and Hyperbola GNU/Linux :D
Some words of encouragement in the sea of pessimism on HN which brought down the previous attempt at this [0]. Keep going, ignore the FUD and continue where others have left off.

We need alternative and safer kernels, and attempts like this should be encouraged. Rust is suitable for that guarantee.

Keep going.

Ideology works both ways. Public ownership is not a magic solution that would solve everything, and in fact it'd probably create its own set of problems.

Maybe a state-owned company that must operate on stringent efficiency requirements with private sector best practices.
If I remember correctly, Ada was much slower compared to C. Stuff like boundary checks on arrays has a cost.
Monetizing the web directly is practically impossible

You know, there is this concept called subscriptions, and if more businesses would just focus on creating value for their customers, more businesses would get their customers to actually pay them directly vs a massive race-to-the-bottom revenue architecture, such as advertising and get-as-many-eyeballs as possible.

I know it's a novel concept, but I completely removed all advertising from one of my core businesses, and while I lost out on a pretty hefty revenue stream, the goodwill it generated with my customers increased my subscription revenue (read: customers opening their wallets and paying me directly), and it dramatically decreased my time and effort trying to manage the shit-show that is Internet advertising.
Go lang is a joke language. It's best to shelve it alongside INTERCAL in a library of esoteric languages.
Such snarky tone sounds unnecessary on HN.

> unless it's well-enforced AGPL3++

GPL has been successfully enforced in various occasions, and it can be enforced effectively especially when large companies need to protect their R&D investments from freeloading competitors.

A new, stronger "AGPL3++" can be written and enforced. Many companies have been experimenting with new licenses to find more sustainable options than the status quo.
This site is American and thus patriotism plays a heavy role in the bias of comments. Usually, China is by default viewed in a negative light.

Yeah it’s very tricky and an art for sure. We spent a lot of time on it, i feel like we really nailed it because it was all about finding overlap but also creating introductions. We intentionally split up many friend groups because we knew they’d gravitate at the bar and dance floor anyway, so ideally getting them to meet new people over dinner was going to create an even bigger party - and it for sure did.

So yeah all to say, you’re right and it’s very unique for each gathering and its audience as to which approach you should take.
