> People try to run JVM versions across 10 years and face "small" issues with builtins. GP's point was mainly about missing interfaces, missing methods, typos etc.

Indeed -- well put.

> Java is “statically typed” amd has the same issues during runtime with different JVM versions.

Nothing is ever perfect -- there can be some occational runtime incompatibilities when very old Java code is run on new VMs.

But the effort in moving between one Java version and another Java version that came out many years later is likely order of magnitudes less than if you did the same thing in Ruby. There is simply no comparison.
We must have had very similar reading lists, although I think I subbed in Trixie Belden (an odd choice for a boy) for the Three Investigators.

Searching for a lot of China-related content online (in English) can be like that. I wanted to know about a specific type of tofu, every result was clearly a poor automatic translation.

I recommend not just bookmarking, but downloading a copy. Either a webarchive file or manually extract the main content from there (Reader mode in browsers is great help). Link rots happen. More than half of my bookmarks don't work.
From a voter's perspective, voting with a wallet seems not too dissimilar from voting in elections. Both are necessary, but insufficient to "advance systemic changes."
Yeah, there really needs to be a solution to situations like this honestly.

Cobol? Interim where the lead left (probably for good reason)? Sounds brutal.
Edit: my first comment was a bit harsh.

The more toned down version is I find the whole thing suspect. It costs someone time to do this, so "free" doesn't scale. That someone would want to Trivy install, tuning, monitoring for "free" in return for remote access seems like a big red flag.
JetBlue-Spirit Deal Blocked by Judge on Antitrust Grounds
Key fob and the recovery method works for vehicles because it also requires physical access and knowing where that specific car is. It’s very easy for somebody to steal a specific car, even high end luxury car without after market mods if they can get to it.

This doesn’t work for the internet because anyone can access the target from anywhere.

We already do this to a degree with trusted CA centralization and there are recorded incidents (pretty frequently) of major breaches and state actors posing as various entities.

The stakes are also different, stealing a car is hard to do when it has physical security and has physical consequences. It’s also not worth a whole lot after because it’s hot. Stealing somebody’s identity is worth a whole lot more, hard to if even possible recover from and can be done remotely from anywhere.

I think centralization around brokers is a terrible idea. Look at Equifax, the audit after revealed it was only a matter of time before somebody utilized the multiple gaping completely negligent holes they had. The resulting fine for leaking every man, woman, and child’s ssn, birthdate, address, and drivers license was the equivalent of a few dollars to them.
I used to do approximately this, from maybe the mid-90s to 2015-ish, but finally that keyboard died (RIP dear friend) and I find that it doesn't work properly on any keyboard I've found since.

Not quite the side of my palm, but the joint where my pinky meets my palm. My hands are relatively large, dunno if that's relevant.

I should put more work into buying a keyboard that it does work on, I think using my finger for Ctrl might be starting to cause RSIs in my middle-aged hands.

I guess I'll also add that for me it's a bigger deal when gaming than when using CUA. That Ctrl button is the one true place to put crouch, dangit.
The two go hand in hand. If you don't put effort into cracking encryption you are never going to get stronger encryption.

Elon Musk's Latest Robot Video Accidentally Gives Away the Magic Trick
I am Czech, but was about to say something similar. Our country looks up to US a lot, and the rightwing here promotes neoliberal policies since the 90s.

And we also suffer from lots of grift, which became normalized in the 90s. I think it comes from certain hardcore libertarian interpretation (which became popular with the rise of neoliberalism), according to which, making money at someone's expense is perfectly acceptable.

So for example, if someone sells some BS to a 70 year old grandma with shady practices, it is considered her problem, and government can't (and shouldn't) do anything about it. At best, it can "educate".

From what I hear, other Eastern-European countries suffer from this malaise as well.
My org has used mdBook: https://rust-lang.github.io/mdBook/ (That link is itself a rendered mdBook, so that'll give you an idea of the feature set.)

(While it's definitely a Rust "thing", if you just have a set of .md files, all you need is a "SUMMARY.md" (which contains the ToC) and a small config file; i.e., you don't have to have any Rust code to use it, and it works fine without. We document a large, mostly non-Rust codebase with it.)
I mean AI therapy could succeed simply because it has the potential to be cheaper and easier to access than the competition. Definitely easier than scheduling in person therapy. And when comparing to the current cheapest and lowest friction easy access products, they are just not very good. Most are poor to use from a technical perspective, and all from a quality of care perspective.

Beyond price and ease of access, talking to a robot that isn't even capable of judging you might even be more appealing to some people.

Would a therapy tuned gpt-4 be adequate? Probably not, but who knows what the landscape looks like in a decade or two.

This is all obviously US centric and a biased opinion based on my personal experience.Talkspace is currently the best among these products in my experience, but that's only from a UX perspective, they all suffer from the same fundamental Uber for Therapy problems.
Show HN: Deploy a containerized RaspAP with Docker Compose
If you go all-in on an ecosystem there's going to be pain if you decide to jump to another ecosystem. You can avoid some of that by using 1Password (I'm sure there are others as well). It integrates just fine with iOS.
CP/M consists of three parts, CCP = Console Command Processor, BDOS = Basic Disk Operating System, BIOS = Basic Input Output System.

SCP copied the CCP and BDOS. The BIOS would be the most hardware-centric part of CP/M, and would probably not be copied between platforms. Also, the BIOS was the only "open" part of CP/M.

You are correct that DOS uses INT 21 and not INT 5. Sorry for my typo. The INT 21 vs CALL 5 APIs are effectively identical aside from the calling mechanism.

I never did it, but I think it would have been interesting to run the SCP cross-assembler on the leaked CP/M CCP and BDOS. (They would need to be translated from Intel mnemonics into Zilog ones, but there are tools for that too.) After using the automated tools, I believe the resulting x86 assembly source would be "substantially similar" to the early DOS source.
Wrong Road
No, if you copy the same layout of the information, pacing, etc. that's plagiarism.

The line of plagiarism in modern society has already been drawn, and it's a lot further back than a lot of uncreative people that want to steal work en-mass seem to think it is.
Google search went from critical for me to irrelevant overnight with ChatGPT 4.

Like, literally irrelevant. I'm still watching YouTube, using Gmail, and occasionally checking out something on Google Shopping if I want to find something locally instead of on Amazon. But I use Google search about 90% less now than I did a year ago.
I "vote with my wallet" as a form feel-goodism. It has almost no impact, but it helps me feel satisfied with myself. This is similar to donating a small amount to a charity that works on issues I personally feel connected to, even if they're relatively low-impact. While the majority of my donations go to charities that I understand (to the best of my ability) to have the greatest impact on human flourishing.

In the same vein, I can't stop at voting with my wallet; as you say, I'm choosing between the options given to me and their artificial costs. If I care about a particular outcome, I have to give extra effort beyond my purchasing decisions. There's no amount of inconvenient train rides I can take in my city that will convince it build new train lines; I have to go around the city and tell people that trains and density are more effective for the outcomes we want.

> if they were pushing something unpopular, one of their competitors would have seen better sales

That's a bit like saying if Airpods were objectively bad, then people would buy other headphones. You're right; but there are ulterior considerations that people make when they buy these products. When Macbooks were at their worst, the waste-of-money i9 aluminum pancake ovens, most Apple users probably were not considering alternative manufacturers. They want Apple's experience, and will suffer through the 12" Macbook or the 16" monster machine to get it. Same as the first-generation Airpods that were measurably worse than the 7x cheaper Earpods.

My point is that Apple can make objectively bad decisions (eg. butterfly keyboard, inadequate thermal solutions) and their customers will still buy their products. The same is not really true for most other laptop OEMs since they're functionally interchangeable if you're a Windows user.
They are talking about -ffast-math, not -Ofast.
I'm pretty stoked to see our field at the top of HN, I hope some folks who are reading this end up feeling the spark and getting involved!
Developers laugh at lawyers who think they can write code, and lawyers laugh at developers who think they can write contracts.

The truth is there are probably more lawyers who can write good code than developers who can write good contracts.

Ok, yeah, I agree. But the world of cost-cutting and penny-saving would never allow that - same reason FireWire lost out to USB. As passive and dumb peripherals as possible won out (for cheaper parts and faster time to market).
Right, but I don't think that's what this is... is it?

This new platform will also want a cut. So, hooray - more of the same, I guess.
On a side note, when did this term "compute" work its way into the lexicon? "Compute nodes", etc. I don't recall this being a term until the last year or so.

Decided to rewatch this as I was finishing up my reviews for the next NLP conference. I can't help but think we didn't know how good it was back in 2017 when Ali Rahimi gave this talk.
That's why I specifically described him as "grifter-adjacent".

He's obviously a talented scientist and he's always careful to qualify his claims, but he still ends up with an audience that takes away conclusions that ignore the qualifications.

He knows this because this is the only way to keep pumping out content because what we know actually works is the same old boring stuff no one wants to pay attention to.

Compare this to folks like the Barbell Medicine guys, run by MDs who have a sworn duty to do no harm, and their advice. Watch enough of their episodes and you'll often be able to predict what they'll say because they're relying on what we know works, whether from programming of strength training or medical advice. (Their recent episode on the Common Cold is a particularly useful episode to contrast with Huberman.)
Shells have Vi mode: bash, fish, zsh.
Ultimately a site can get around affiliate / referral detection with internal links that redirect though I suppose. So the crawler would need to follow and track all links to detect this. Also sites will surface different links / content based on user agents, so I don't know how effective this is.
What value does he bring now? His attention seems to be mostly focused elsewhere anyway.
> ... since so many services allow you to reset a password and possibly even remove 2FA with just e-mail verification.

What is insane is that so many services allows to reset password and even 2FA without requiring any cooldown. The level of fail here is plain staggering. I don't really have words.

There are proper services out there who shall go out of their way to try to contact you, for example for 72 hours, before allowing any reset to happen. Some are going to say: "Wait, what!?, 72 hours!? I need to reset my 2FA NOW". They don't realize though that what they're really saying is: "I want bad guys to be able to reset my password/2FA instantly and log me out of everything they can in a split second". It's convenience vs security, once again.

As a sidenote I've read about a DB (in the EU) about SIM cards saying when they were swapped. And as a bank, you can check that DB and decide, for example, to refuse to let anyone change any setting if the SIM was swapped less than a week ago.

We need more people to think a bit about potential solutions instead of crying "but it's not convenient" and "bad guys shall find a way anyway".

That is if the AI fully replaces the need for a skill. What happens if it mostly replaces it, enough so the skill atrophies, but not enough that the user never needs the skill?
What interests?
That's just because they already have all of your identification, shipping, and payment information stored. Apple Pay isn't quite one-click fast, but it's damn near a miracle for one-off purchases from retailers you don't normally use. I've definitely made purchases I'd otherwise have walked away from (I'm pretty selective about who gets my credit card number).
With Plan 9 or so in the previous century?
Ah yes, that’s much neater and more localised. Thanks
Yeah it’s a statement deliberately crafted to obfuscate and misrepresent in order to carry a false narrative.

If no country was particularly rich compared to today’s standard, then it is not convincing to conclude that plundering did not help. Because then you could conclude any other activity (eg trading, innovating, discovering) also was not helping.

A proper analysis needs to compare different countries within the same period, and ask whether countries that plundered are ranked higher than those that did not.

This is pure speculation. The track record of speculations by archaeologists isn't very good.

Probably the silliest speculation ever was when two gourds connected by a string were hypothesized to be an ancient telephone.
I'd love to use these but the connectors are what has been putting me off. This is beyond my skill level.
I have to believe this is the case.

The vast majority of "ai safety" news I see is about some dumb shit someone is getting called out for supporting and the responses are always "ai safety is such a joke since they focus on these issues instead of real issues".

Who does this benefit to have the "popular ai safety" news/people be ridiculous? It's not furthering the issues people seem to care about, but it does give a bunch of ammunition for Microsoft/openai/etc. fans to use to shutdown any discussion of AI safety issues.
If the artist's license was for non-commercial use, isn't using it for training an AI for commercial use a clear violation ?

Infield wants to make open-source dependency management trivial
The POV you express is quite common but it's mistaken in that it assumes the role of the courts is to "fix" things, when it is not. Their role is to apply the law as written consistently.

While the word "fairly" is often used in place of "consistently", that can lead to confusion because some people mistake the word "fairness" in this context as meaning "morally fair" judicial outcomes. While "moral fairness" does sometimes happen as a result of applying the law consistently, it's not the primary goal or purpose of courts. When things in society are happening that are unfair or otherwise wrong, blaming the courts is like blaming the CPU instead of the programmer. In the US, the "programmer" is congress (the legislative branch). They write the code. The courts in this analogy are the CPU. Their job is to run the code as written correctly and consistently. If the outcomes aren't satisfactory, it's either a bug, missing feature or unhandled exception in the code.

The Supreme Court's primary job is to fix system bugs at the micro-code and kernel levels, stuff like scope violations, etc, when the system runs correct code improperly. It's very rare for the issue behind "bad or unexpected outcomes" to be due to the micro-code or kernel but it can happen. Those rare times are when you call the Supremes. When the Supremes pass on accepting a case without comment, it's like rejecting a bug report, often due to it being a bug in the application-level code. In those cases passing is like responding "Not our Bug." Other times they are basically saying the issue is due to a program using system-level APIs in undefined ways. From their perspective, the system responding to ill-defined or undefined instructions with unexpected or inconsistent results is actually correct, so they respond with "Won't Fix (GiGO)". No one wants the CPU making up how to correctly respond to undefined instructions on its own. This is why the phrase "Courts don't make they law, they apply the law" is such a mantra.

In this case, congress hasn't yet written any code designed to directly address this use case. If we want to "fix" things we need to get the feature approved and on the legislative backlog to be addressed in a future sprint.
> While Israeli officials have no expectation of enjoying massive support online, they say the wider popular support for the Palestinian cause has been successfully hijacked by Hamas to undermine Israel's standing in an unprecedented way. Officials say the sheer scale of content produced by Hamas and its affiliates, as well as its organic reach – especially among young Westerners – caught Israel unawares.

It's not the "scale of content produced by Hamas", it's the scale of killing done by Israel. People are reacting to the actual death and destruction taking place, not just tweets. Social media is helping people see what's going on in Gaza and the West Bank directly without Israeli propaganda interfering with the message.
Seems like OP didn't save me a click, then. Dang.
The article is so stupid it is funny.
Always better to go to graduate professional school (law, business) when you have a job lined up. Going to Harvard or Yale with no plan means you might get a job after. But if you don’t, after a couple years the degree is a scarlet letter. I have a friend who went to a good law school but graduated middle of class. He does the same job he did before, but is still paying off the $200k debt he took :(

With "an" EV? Like all EVs have the same carbon footprint? That's definitely not true. Furthermore, even an EV has a carbon footprint and its far from 0. The real solution to be greener is to walk, ride a bicycle, or use public transport instead of a private car. And if you use a private car, then try to use car sharing so as to split the carbon footprint of the car's construction between all its users.

I can’t please everyone! It’s be naive of me to think that.

Most supercomputer clusters are divided into compute-nodes vs management nodes. I'd have to imagine the language was popular as far back as the 1980s in the high-performance computing realm...
The sooner anyone making profit from models trained on creators proprietary content start paying for the content they’re using the better for creators, society and even the AI companies. It’s pretty tiring hearing people argue about whether copyright law applies to AI companies or not. It applies. Just get on and sort out a proper licensing model.
The third effort is referred to sometimes as AI not-kill-everyone-ism, a tacky and unwieldy term that is unlikely to be co-opted or lead to the unproductive discussion like around the OP article.

It is pretty sad to read people bash together the efforts to understand and control the technology better and the companies doing their usual profit maximization.
What I mean is that they could do things on their business side, off-chain, completely independent from the "protocol" or smart contracts. If they already accept use a "traditional" payment processor to accept credit cards, why could't they add zksync as an option for payment on Tardigrade?

It's really not hard - I've done a PoC when I was working on https://hub20.io - but it doesn't help with their "tokenonomics", so they just ignore it.

> Bands like Bastille and Disclosure had already seen significant success in their homelands before making their first appearance in the United States

I've heard that US band visas are really difficult to get without proof of commercial success at home, which may influence this observation. (on the flip side, the States has been known to pull passports from musicians to prevent them from gigging abroad)
