Funny you say this, using Siri to set timers when cooking was my "gateway drug" to using voice features on my phone more broadly.

For the longest time it was literally the only thing I used Siri for (cooking timers), but now I use Siri for setting reminders and other similar transactional stuff on my phone, and I use voice dictation for texts all the time in the car, and even sometimes when I'm walking in the cold and just don't want to take my gloves off..

And it works great. And it doesn't feel weird at all.
Sorry, I did actually ask for Snow White in the car! And it played a song called "Snow". Haha, reproducing it here at my desk I mistakenly said "Cinderella"

There are plenty of phenomena in life where things clump together. Just look at oil and water, or different sand particle sizes when shook together in a container. It's going to be something similar at a cosmic scale.
I have always assumed that such metals came in big blobs and then got smeared out over geological time. Could be wrong though.
> We suspect our freezer is oscillating from freezing to not freezing

That's how no frost works by blowing the cold but moisty air inside to the outside, this indeed raises the temperature briefly in the freezer.

But this only can become an issue if you're opening the fridge so many times a day.
Let them fight. Copyright transfer as it exists regarding work for hire is a legal fiction.
They used to have blue check marks which was this exclusive thing that meant that someone was important enough to have been verified. Then Elon decided to start selling blue check marks for money, so now there are apparently a bunch of different colored check marks that you need to keep track of and know the meaning of.

Whereas it used to be just. Blue check mark = this is probably the real person I think it is.

(But in this case it don’t matter anyway. They were hacked and even if we still had only blue check marks their account would have been hacked all the same.)
That's more and more? Only someone completely removed from European politics would write that.

Right, but I think paxys’ point is that the message you get when you click a blue check also implies the account is verified (which is not true in any rigorous sense of the word “verified”). The average user can’t be expected to know that the white one is “more verified” when they both say “verified”.
ChatGPT seems to handle this fine

This is HN... so what OS do we think this is running? Android under the hood? Anyone know more about hardware or screen res?

I wonder how hard it would be to root this device and use it for the hardware.
If by "features" you mean "business logic", you might be right. But UX polish that makes the application accessible to ordinary people who are going to give the app 2-3 minutes to prove itself is a feature, and one that can take an overwhelming amount of engineering to get right.

Dismissing that engineering because your mainframe applications do more "work" with less code is shortsighted, a continuation of the "frontend developers aren't real engineers" meme that has finally started to die.
Not if “faster” refers to computation rate rather than runtime, in which case it becomes 100/81 i.e. 23% faster.
> quick search seems to indicate that Boeing certainly makes campaign donations

Of course they do [1]. They're a defence contractor. They give to a lot of electeds. But far from every elected. (I'd be shocked if they weren't giving to everyone on those subcommittees.)

What's bunk is believing someone receving $5k from Boeing is in their pocket. They're not. They've likely never spoken. This is all nonsense used to justify inactivity. Which is baffling, since it seems to require as much effort as (albeit less social interaction than) engagmeent.

The article should probably just explicitly say that, to avoid all this arguing.
From where I sit, the primary distinction seems to be where the fork lives. On Github, forks are public. You get a copy of the repo in your own namespace on Github which you can pull from and push to from wherever. Others can see it and any changes you make to it as well.

On OpenDev, your clone/fork/personal branch is only on your dev machine and you only push patches, if I'm reading it right.

I guess the OpenDev model discourages people from forking the repo, modifying it to suit their needs, and then not sharing the results. To some degree.

I think I actually prefer the GitHub model where people's branches/changes are public by default unless they choose to go through the trouble to make their fork private. I have found many good bug fixes and enhancements for repos abandoned by their upstream authors this way.

That's nice! If random network traffic can cause a crash, what are the odds of something exploitable is lurking there?
People commonly (by default) compare electric bills on $$ rather than on kW*hr, so an increase in rate would reduce the savings-as-compared.

Different baseline electricity use and thermostat preferences could play a significant role as well. (Previous owners may have gone for a lower daytime setting and a deeper setback because of the inefficiency. A new owner with a more efficient system may quite reasonably choose to bias towards greater comfort than the prior owner did.)
What a horribly written article. Just throwing a bunch of names and not stating the proposed strategy until the last paragraph (by only giving just one strategy). The title is peak clickbait as well.

There are worse songs to accidentally get! That said, I sympathize. Given how easy it is to get, say, the passenger to put on a song, it's absurd how many hoops you have to jump through with any voice assistant to get it right.

For example, I often wish I could just queue up a song to play next like I can over touch, but there's no elegant way for me to do that without picking up my phone in the car. If my wife were riding with me, all I'd have to say is "Hey play [XYZ] next", a feat yet unmatched by any voice assistant
>i think it was a mistake for most sites to disable comments.

It was not a mistake at all, and you stated exactly why. Spam.

Not just spam.

Spam. Spam. Spam. Spam. Spam. Spam.

And that's before the mean spirited comments, trolls, outright illegal posts and more. Oh, and if you post anything really controversial, might as well get behind cloudflare now before you get blasted off the internet.
They are just trying to see if they can come up with something big.
I don't think there has been a single successful hardware startup in the last decade, so the answer to your question is safely "no" without even going into specifics.

Which is sad, because I'm sure there's room for a lot more innovative devices in the world outside of a single glass rectangle in your pocket that everyone must plug into in some way. The economics of the industry just makes it very hard for them to survive, and we all lose out because of it.
I would never do it in public, but I have gotten used to voice commands for a few things.

For example, adding things to our grocery list. It is quite handy to just say “add butter to the grocery list” when I am looking in the fridge. I am able to not stop cooking, but add things we need to the list as I find we are low.
This is not a great example. It's based on essentially one player, Rick Barry, who shot underhand at a high percentage. There are no bad underhand foul shooters, which I find suspicious, Yet I can cherry pick very tall, very good foul shooters like Kevin Durant. Larry Bird and Jeff hornacek never struck me as particularly concerned with looking cool either.
I'll respond to this comment to provide a general response for all of the sub-comments here.

As I highlighted in my post, LLM's generally are still not in a position to replace a developer for more complex tasks and refactoring. We're in the early days of the technology, but we are seeing extremely strong improvements in it over the last year. We on the team have QA'd thousands of results for public, and private repositories. The private ones are particularly interesting because the LLM's do not have that in their corpus, and have seen very strong fix results.

Most people just assume we're wrapping around an LLM, but there's a lot that goes underneath the hood that needs to happen to ensure that fixes are going to be secure and correct. Here are the standards we're setting for fix quality:

- The fix needs to be best-practice and complete. A partial security fix isn't a security fix. This is something we're constantly working on.
- Supporting the widest coverage in CWE's.

- Not introducing any breaking changes in the rest of the code.
- Understanding the language, the framework being used, and any specific packages. For example, fixing an CSRF issue in Django is different than Flask. Both are python frameworks but approach it differently.
- Reusing existing packages correctly to improve security and if it does need to add a package does so in a standard way.
- Placing imports in the correct part of the file.
- Not using deprecated or risky packages.
- Avoiding LLM hallucinations.
- Ensuring syntax and formatting are correct.
- Follow the coding and naming convention in the file being fixed.
- Making sure fixes are consistent within the same issue type.
- Explain the fix properly and clearly so that someone can understand it.
- Avoiding assumptions that could cause problems.
- Not removing any code that is not part of the issue.

Our goal is to get to 90% - 95% accuracy in fixes this year, and we're on a trajectory to do that. I will be the first to say 100% accuracy is impossible, and our goal is to get it right more times than engineers would.

We take fix quality and transparency extremely seriously. We'll be publishing a whitepaper showing the accuracy in results because it's the right thing to do. I hope this helps.
Fraud is the fault of the one being impersonated now?

I think the real crime is that they keep on getting the PR for being "open source" and for safe ai development.

They arnt open sourcing their models and they are actually monetizing it.
As for AI safety.....its so grey aread.
Uncensored models have a place in this community, and trying to suppress them or claim their is no use for them is just insane to me.

What one person views as a moral or ethical response another might view as wrong. This is all culture and also based on your country's views which help form individual perspectives.

I think a big issue with AI other than the hardware barriers is that we have no clue if the amazing developments in the field will keep up with the same pace or stagnate. We can't accurately tell when we have hit the theoretical limit, or when we have true AGI.
> rear-facing seats, which are known to be safer

There's some constraints on that. A full passenger jet isn't the same thing as a military transport plane. For example, things coming loose which would hit seatbacks now hit people.

It's also important, IMO, to note that "passengers wouldn't be happy" is a slight underestimate. The number of people barfing from motion sickness would go up pretty dramatically, for one. Even the people not barfing aren't going to like that.

And then of course there's the problem of frequency. Passenger plane crashes are rare enough now that squeezing out the last little bit of safety by causing serious discomfort and other headaches is probably not a good trade-off.

In the 70s, fossil fuel companies stirred up anti-nuclear propaganda in order to deter nuclear plants, which they perceived as the biggest threat to their business.

In the modern day, fossil fuel companies stir up pro-nuclear propaganda in order to deter renewables, which they perceive as the biggest threat to their business, because it's long since become clear that nuclear power is not economically viable as a replacement for fossil fuels even without the effect of their original propaganda (and the fact that they propagandized against nuclear in the 70s has yielded fertile harvests of people who are still salty about that, inspiring them to take up the pro-nuclear torch with little provocation).

There are lots of natural processes that will tend to sort atoms by density or chemical type, e.g., heavier things settle downward. That's why the Earth's core is a very different composition than its crust.
I'd buy a device just to do the timer setting, weather checking, and light control consistently and without selling my data. I have found it enormously useful and get frustrated/miss it when I don't have it. I also love the music playing feature but don't see how I can get that without being tracked/updates being pushed that require maintenance.

I have found that relying on these devices to have consistent usability when the processing is all done on the cloud and out of my control was a foolish mistake. I do wish I could revert my google home to ~two years ago.
You can go wrong with a Miele. The repair costs and parts availability were atrocious on our Miele appliances after the five year extended warranty was up. I loved my Miele appliances until they broke. The glass on our range got broken and it was a 1650 dollar part to replace and required 300 more for a technician to do it. Same thing happening to our washing machine, speed oven, and dishwasher. The amount of money we’ve spent to repair them in years 6-9 (five year warranty, and they’re all 6-9 years old) has been exceptionally high.

Great products, but their after warranty service is so expensive they are often not even worth repairing, which makes their whole lasts longer pitch kind of mute. At that point they become just like every other luxury appliance maker. We were disappointed.

I’d do Bosch / Speed Queen if I had to do it again.
Hmm, so they’re starting to feel the effects of ZIRP on pause, good.

But they’re also still in the mindset that they need to prevent boobs at all costs.

Except Apple doesn’t let every app do that. They effectively decide which company wins while blocking all others. The same argument was made against Google since they charged a lower Play Store commission for Spotify.
Are you claiming that video games waste more electricity than crypto mining PoW? Do you have evidence to support that? It's a pretty strong claim, since most of the power being used to play a video game is doing something (rasterizing images/synthesizing audio/simulating physics in order to provide the game experience) while most of the power used to do PoW mining is Wasted On Purpose.
When was Congress overthrown? Which Congresspeople were harmed? Which Grandmas with American flags, now with criminal records, meant to take over the US government?

Yes, there are a lot of people in prison. They have been subject to norm-breaking prosecution under the opposition party's adminstration. Whenever an opposition party decides to arrest and prosecute its competition, they try to deflect from the authoritarian fact and deride those people as crimimnals as much as possible. This is the playbook for every tin-pot dictator since Sumer.

And in this instance, the authoritarians in question rode into office on eight months of nation-shattering street terrorism that their party incited and protected. Of course, the dictators proclaim those riots as perfectly legitimate and that of their competition as criminal. See: Tin Pot Dictator.

> Right now, it's an "out of sight, out of mind" kind of a problem because the mining happens in poor countries. How many cobalt and lithium mines have been approved in the U.S?

Mainland USofA is relatively mineral poor wrt economic feasibilty.

There's a reason the bulk of US Cold War yellow cake came from Africa, Canada, etc and very little from the "weak tea" leach mines in the contiguous US.

( 'Relative' meaining exactly that, the US does of course have a 64 year prospect for copper (and other resources), it's just that other parts of the world have higher grades of most things that are cheaper to extract. )

Lithium you'll find is mostly mined in Australia - mining isn't the dirty part, it's the post processing of the spodumene concentrates - this currently takes place in China, Malaysia, and elsewhere.

The US is currently building at least three spodumene concentrates facilities - one in Texas for use by Tesla.
Wow that's extremely good value.

I respect your feeling/position on this, but I don't understand it...

What feels "dumb" about it?

Is the perception of others towards you when you do this? Because that ship has sailed, people Vlog on the sidewalk and do TikTok videos in the subway, and Facetime their mom or brother at the grocery store or in the mall and have long video conversations with each other out loud..

I'm not saying this to be dismissive. As a GenX'er it took me a while to normalize this behaviour even to myself, but I've accepted now that these kinds of interactions with devices are just everyday occurrences and literally no one cares.

They can be obnoxious for sure, but just using TTS/Siri on your phone is like the nicest version of this interaction I can imagine. ;-)

> 4. Try to do fun stuff if possible. Going to the gym is not fun, but it feels good after. But if you have a side project, make it a fun one, something you really are in to.

I'm not entirely with you about gyms in particular. Weights might just not be your thing as an individual, but "going to the gym is not fun" is often about the logistical problems of timing around gyms (peak hours, January rushes especially) and not necessarily that it's an inherently bad experience. If you're going when it's dead, it can actually be pretty great.

If you're doing it now, then yeah, it's a bad idea (and there's a separate ramble on that), but it doesn't have to be.

Broadly though, I agree with you. You'll never find me on a treadmill, but will find me on a DDR cab.
> buying a Ford and complaining Chevy parts don’t fit

No, it would be like Ford locking all parts so you can't buy anything other than a Ford-branded part from a Ford-branded dealership.

I hate to say this, but just three months ago children that I knew were burned alive. And a baby was found burned in an oven, apparently stuffed in there such that the heating element mark was visible on its body.
