In my view the problem with doping is not that pros take it. The problem is that when pros take PED and do basically impossible stuff this trickles down into amateur and youth sport. So you end up with teenagers and amateurs taking everything they can get without any doctors supervising how much they take. So you have teen athletes ruining their health while trying to make it to the top because it’s the only way to perform at the levels necessary.
Even more amusing is that I’m right!

"Hallucination" is also a dangerous level of anthropomorphization. It's sensational; it implies a fanciful level of imagination and visualization that isn't there.

"Fabrication" is a much more accurate and neutral word. I wish "hallucination" hadn't taken hold.
Where did you find the paper? It's not on arxiv?
The reviews are pretty harsh, but after reading the paper, I feel they may be too generous. Somehow this paper spends several pages proving things that are both trivial and irrelevant, and spends zero words explaining the architecture of their model. This is borderline crackpot territory.
And yet if you look at Blender (open source & free) GPU benchmarks https://opendata.blender.org/benchmarks/query/?compute_type=...

The RTX ADA 6000 actually slightly performs worse than a consumer-grade 4090 (~10% less performant), even though it retails for 4-5x more ($8000 for ADA 6000 compared to $1500-2000 for a 4090).

QE simply swaps one form of government liability (treasuries) for another (reserves).

They pay less interest on reserves.

The effect on the economy of banks holding reserves rather than securities is otherwise negligible because both securities and reserves can be used to satisfy any liquidity requirements, so reserves and securities are functionally identical.

That’s why it’s so dumb that people get in a flap over the idea of the Treasury issuing reserves “out of thin air” but they are fine with the Tresury issuing new securities “out of thin air”.

They’re more or less the same operation.
That's interesting! I didn't realize there had been prior dataframe libraries in Python!

And the Glasgow scale is exactly that, how people physically respond to stimulus with a body movement, and subsequent complex body movements - eg just humans vaguely deciding - is how we treat for levels of consciousness.

One comment and a question: firstly, this site is very nice and works well on mobile. Secondly, I wasn't able to find an explanation of how using Polars in Python works. Is it using pyo3 or is this something totally different? Re the performance highlighted in that pie chart, does that hold when using Polars from Python?

Nothing made me respect mainstream media more than a thousand "alternative" pundits crying foul while not only failing to do better but regressing on the basics: asking accused parties for comment, asking adjacent experts for comment, retracting articles when conflicting evidence arises, clearly delineating op/ed, etc. It's fair to argue that these things aren't sufficient, but it's absolutely wild how easy it wound up being to pass off regression for progression on this front. People really do just want to hear confirmation of their own opinions.
All that does is track device usage not who is using it. Like red light cams mailing tickets to owners not drivers.
They did something similar for the 30-series, I think 20-series as well.

Though given that NVidia seems to release its consumer GPUs once every 2 years (20 series in late 2018, 30-series late 2020, 40 series in late 2022), I wonder if this is more of a marketing ploy - release the main series once every 2 years, but bring our "super" refreshers in the middle of the cycle to make sure you're still in the news, and get some segment of consumers / gamers to upgrade to those.
you mean the:

>If you read my text above, you will see why this approach is not wanted. It's fantastic for AAA games, but Godot being a general purpose game engine has different requirements.

That does seem to exemplify what the GP means in terms of trying to aim for performance. I am not at all reassured of "CPU driven renderer is very performant" mentioned in the same post I'm reading. I'm sure these days you can run 90% of 2D games on the CPU with zero issue (outside of maybe not having a potato for a minspec if you utilize heavy VFX), but that sounds like a recipe for performance issues on anything more than the most simple 3D games.

Comments from the founder here happened consistently over the years and is part of why I decided to pursue another open source engine instead in the end, as someone looking to make a medium-scale 3D game.

I don't mean this as a slight to Godot; it is in fact much better to focus on one audience than be a swiss army knife, and I'm sure many game devs are right at home in Godot. But I can't help but admit that these rigid responses of "this way is good, you're wrong" instead of "this way is a compromise to provide design convenience over raw performance" rubs me the wrong way.

There's a second part to this argument.

Fuck this. Fuck this a lot. What a rubbish mind of moral absolutism, that is just never going to make everyone happy.

Everyone will have different definitions of easy. The person here clearly assembled very popular very well known within php tools that make everything simple, and took inordinate care to carefully document all the steps if you know anything about modern php.

It's just pandering bullshit from gross people to insist on making it simple. It's never going to be simple enough. Everyone will complain forever, be sad and unhappy that the machine doesn't just work, that there's not a service already running that does it, that they have to lift any fingers.

The bar for for simplicity is ever diminishing, will forever sink, and the outrage that it's not simple enough is infinite. We cannot prey forever upon those who do by those who won't.

We just can't demand this endless hell from everyone with a good idea. They can't all be your simple trite subject of decision for not having made it simple.

> The ‘lowest common denominator’ is absolutely acceptable in an era of cheap storage and memory available to the average self hoster. Even a Pi4 or 5 will handle clunky containers.

The lowest common denominator I was talking about isn't hardware, it's shitty low class negative internet dweebs who won't lift a finger to try to run something trying to make some auters interesting weird awesome software take a dive because it doesn't run whatever their preferred "simple" is. People are the low denominator, sucking up the oxygen in the room with their pissy "not easy enough" negativity. This system scales probably way way better and to way lower targets because it runs MySQL, because it can be tuned better, because it's more perfoant, because it's not "simple" enough for some. You can probably host way more people on an RPi with this. The hardware requirements are simple as heck, it's the how fucking low and how frelling stupid an author has to make it to run it that sets this bozo-bit bar.

This author clearly spent hella time carefully documenting & using best-of-breed tools automating setup. But the shitty riff raff keeps demanding it be simpler. These people will never contribute anyways, is my suspicion, but I agree with them still: as I said, it should be simpler! The bar should be lowered! But it shouldn't be on authors to help lower the bar (endlessly imo); we should intermediate and build better tools (like Yunohost & Helm) to take & package excellent cared for beautiful works like this & help deliver & make them operable to lower denominator people, for whom trying to run a MySQL database is just too much.

This clearly has my goat, and psuedo-applogie-ish on that. Those who crow for simplicity usually (in my view) have a version of reality in their mind that lays blame and waste to others & cherishes some nonsense internal pleasantville where we can just do away with a reality that the people actually doing the work have to live in, and which exists for very real reasons. There's high-level infantalized engineering where everything is imperfect for not perfectly matching expectations of how simple we want it to be.

The cynic in me suggests that one of the political parties in the US doesn't really want the population well educated.

I also feel "fact check via google" is also the wrong way to go about it, because google just spits out whatever the internet says.

The reality is that a certain skeptical mindset is required when consuming news reports. And when the skepticism goes away, you end up with a cult. And that's not something that every school district teaches.
You made me curious to look up the recent breaking releases

And their policy about it:

Looks like you ought to set aside some time to do updates each quarter, but I do wonder how much breakage can there be in practice, most changes seem pretty niche.
Hooooooooly shit you weren't kidding.

For unrelated reasons i've had to hop back in to tweak an app we made a few years ago that's been buzzing along in production ever since. Last time I touched it was more than a year ago.

The actual editor interface is horribly unresponsive, but it seems to fix itself if i close and reopen the browser (firefox). Still it gets worse with time and it used to be no where near this bad.

As bonus points, functionality that is working in production no longer works in the editor! I found that I had to add yet another clause to all my functions because for some reason it no longer pulls all data from a sql table unless you use show columns to specify you do in fact want all of them.
Logged for 25 hours anyway. Stuck in a box in the airplane, that can only reasonably be opened by a technical crew.

Congratulations on this launch. Looks awesome.
Because right now you don't have the option to choose, so you try to convince yourself that the only choice you have is the one you would have picked anyway. It's quite a common phenomenon, I guess a sort of survival strategy.
$40 per month seems reasonable, are you planning on self hosting? If you are planning on using go Daddy or a similar Service, the most likely offer a preinstalled WordPress solution and then it's just a matter of templates and plug-ins both of which are freely available.
Don't sell yourself short either, you connected its friends you need to charge for your time so if they're concerned over $40 maybe you better ask them for a business plan before getting into deep.
I think at thaT point they could probably afford to just build an offshore launch complex, or build out in the middle of nowhere Arizona or something.

We've done this, and it's worked out pretty well - all of our apprentices were dedicated to learning to write software, about half were offered jobs at the end of the apprenticeships, and half of those accepted.

Remember that they're not just mashing code straight to the main branch; they're apprentices, so other engineers paired with them, others read their pull requests, etc. It wasn't a free-for-all, nor should it be.

Not bad, $599 for the entry-level version, though that is exactly at parity with the cheapest Mac mini.
I agree.

I’m regularly critical of Boeing Defense (particularly space contracts where I’m a huge Boeing skeptic), but I think people are pretty off base if they think Boeing is just completely incompetent.

Airliner safety is insanely good. Just vast seas of competence, but when there’s a super rare failure, the incorrect impression people get is that Boeing (or Airbus) is just full of incompetency. Almost nothing that humans do is held to the same standard. Not spaceflight, not software, not healthcare, and certainly not automotive.

Flying a 737 Max with a bad door and without the fix to the angle of attack sensor is probably still better per mile than driving. In spite of going at 10 times the speed and miles above the Earth.

You can almost argue it’s held to a higher standard than it should, slowing development of cleaner aviation (and therefore killing more people in the future due to tertiary effects of climate change, etc).

It kind of annoys me when comment sections are filled with people talking about how incompetent Boeing is. It feels like out of shape slobs on their La-Z-boy chairs talking about how incompetent or slow some professional sports players are. Like, airliner safety is just a totally different league than almost anyone else plays in. On the worst day, their better than almost anyone else is on their best.
For some things I felt a bit nostalgic, but for other things, not so much.

It was a neat experience and worth doing.
Outside an academic setting plagiarism is just called "thought".

Mainstream media doesn’t do that anymore. Completely random example that I just saw: https://www.cnn.com/2024/01/05/politics/road-to-270-electora.... The article says: “Trump is a seriously flawed candidate who has promised to govern in undemocratic ways.”

That’s not in the opinion section.
If you want to read about another implementation using Merkle CRDTs for practical local-first document database storage, I've been building a new database for about a year.

Yeah, I still have a few contacts there and morale (based on a sample of 2) just sounds dreadful. There's definitely been a bit of brain drain from some of my former co-workers before and after the first wave. Felt really bad hearing about the ad revenue drama because I 110% know several channels in the Slack would have been lit ablaze before that went public.

For others, keep in mind that I don't think Unity is dying. They still are worth billions and can replace most of the talent that left. it's just a real shame to see how quickly everything can turn to shit in my local circle of the company.

Show HN: Practice speaking foreign languages with an AI language tutor
Hi HN!

If you ever learned a foreign language, it's likely mostly forgotten unless you practice it regularly. Thousands of people are looking for speaking partners every day online.

So... I'm working on a language tutor (https://www.kippy.ai) you can speak with like a live human tutor. It will correct your grammar and pronunciation as you speak.

I've posted a video preview of the latest on my LinkedIn (feel free to connect).

The first iteration of Kippy is available in the App Store <https://apps.apple.com/app/apple-store/id6456224061?pt=64221...>

I've run a trial in Japan and South Korea for some time with good initial traction and now growing it worldwide. Any feedback, advice or intros (investors, learners groups, growth hackers) would be much appreciated.

If you (or someone you know) are learning a language, message me for a promo code.

Cheers!
Steve

Yes I see, that makes good sense. Given the course of events, it's still a fair question from a design standpoint: Can this be engineered with a reversible option to switch it from functional to non-functional, depending on the seat configuration?

It just seems like a lot of complexity and moving parts, for a feature that's not in use.
Firstly, I think you're right—and their policies very much so reflect this.

Re: the "skeptical mindset"—I think critical thought is essential. But that's a lot more complex than merely having a "skeptical mindset", which is effectively what these "Do your own research" type of people tend to have. They're skeptical of the "mainstream elites", and that's about the end of the thought process. They're very likely to buy most narratives that counters mainstream consensus.
I fear that one would be misinterpreted by a significant percentage of American office workers.

Building a better search engine would be easy. Just cutting out the most egregiously delusional sites would go a long way.

But nobody would use it. People who are intent on confirming their biases scream "censorship" if you tell them they can't use their favorite sources of misinformation.

This is just one bad example that wasn't even in a real application. Someone just tried to think of an example, happened to look at his oven and quickly wrote something down. The article then attacks this strawman example.
