The general public doesn't have a clue how to build software. If that is even remotely part of your target audience, you need to provide a build or even an installer.

I'm of the opinion that SNAP and Flatpack are just different Linux distributions and should package their own software like other distros do. Trying to get upstream to build for these is IMHO not appropriate. When upstream starts needing keys and crap to push builds into a central location/store it's gone way too far - you're burdening upstream and for what?

BTW the easiest way to run Solvespace on Windows is to download the single-exe build. Where I work this is easier than using winget because the exe will run without admin privileges while installing from winget requires it.

Startup Sales Cycle: contracting takes forever
Unavoidable problem or not: lack of understanding contract terms offered by prospective customers that prolong the time to negotiate compromises and ink a deal.

If this unavoidable but necessary for you as a cofounder to solve, would you hire an attorney or use a software solution to explain what the terms mean? If the latter, what are options (if any) and what gets you comfortable to use the software?

The assumption your startup's paper is not an option because your customers push their own paper with all suppliers.
The idea is that it could help lower inflation as shelter is a large portion of core CPI. It’s not about lowering the prime rate, but having a lower rate for creation of supply, which would exclude all services (80% of the economy).

> Is it still so after ditching LLVM?

Zig hasn't ditched LLVM, nor does it really plan to. What's planned is for the main Zig executable to not directly depend on LLVM, that way contributors to the compiler can still develop on the code base without needing to set up and compile LLVM on their systems. Zig does plan to eventually supersede LLVM's functions with their own custom backends, but in the short term, this only means using the new backend as a debug compiler (for faster compilations, to allow for a better developer feedback loop) and it won't be until the distant future that LLVM could feasibly be dropped as a dependency entirely, if the devs ever decide to actually go through with that.
Wait, what is the meaning other than "Low-Rank Adaptation"? It's hard to google the difference.
Thieves have been known to steal iPhones not just for the value of the parts but to compromise your entire digital existence. Most online banking transfers only require a 2nd factor from your phone (your saved passwords are already on there).
The Apple article does tacitly mention:

> You might want to change your password for other accounts, too.

Personally I would trust iOS security enough to not be too worried. Especially if I can issue a remote wipe in a timely manner. As long as the phone isn't swiped out of my hand while unlocked, I'm doubtful the average thief will be able to get past the lock screen. (Though I'm also assuming the thief doesn't have my passcode)
Reasoning is a process of apprehending facts about objects and inferring how they will relate with other facts. It has nothing to with statistical distributions of words, except in the special case where that distribution has been constructed by humans in a way that reflects their knowledge and inference of those facts. If you feed an LLM garbage, it will happily give you garbage. It doesn't know what garbage is and it doesn't even know that it doesn't know.

Well, I think you underestimate the amount of "training data" that human gets in the early stages of their life. Just learning to speak takes a few years, during which all people around you talk to you for most of your waking hours. Learning to write and doing basic math typically does not start until age of 6.
That is true for a number of forensic methods, indeed [1].

For string keys it can be as it is `dict(a=1, b=2, c=3)` vs `{"a": 1, "b": 2, "c": 3}`. There is a lot of `"` noise on the latter.

Most likely scenario I can imagine:

While everything was TLS encrypted between all conversation participants and the Snapchat server (airport Wi-Fi is a non-sequitur here), Snapchat has some kind of PRISM-style setup that at least starts with a global keyword scanner for natsec-related triggers.

That alone seems unlikely to have resulted in fighter jets scrambling. More likely, that keyword system feeds into a much more complex Palantir deployment or something that's cross-referencing a bunch of other factors and assigning a risk score. In this case, it was enough to get flagged for immediate review, someone thought the contextual elements were enough to escalate, and this set off a chain of actions leading to the fighter jets.

There are likely thousands of terrorism jokes made over back-doored messaging systems every day, but sending one of those messages buys you a lottery ticket you certainly don’t want to win.

Yeah I would be much more concerned about things which cause exponential time increases, like developers who brute force search lists instead of using dictionaries than how they declare their dictionaries unless I was at the point of profiling and the dict() constructor was somehow near the top of the list.
In airframe maintenance this is rarely true. In theory you should be proactively dealing with these issues before they are report generating (in the sense of said reports remaining open a long time, all maintenance generates logs in planes). If an excess number of reports are being generated there is an underlying issue, like work is being deferred for profitability reasons, or the maintenance team is being rushed because they are falling far behind.
Even light, which travels so fast it takes most races thousands of years to realize that it travels at all, takes time to journey between the stars.

I would say that moving the phone from the place I left it would promote it from "lost" to "stolen".

Can you now envision a conversation between this passenger and the pharmacy clerk:

"I found this phone in some car"

"What do you want me to do about it?"

"Hold on to it until some guy I don't know comes to claim it?"

"We don't want this personal property! Go away!"

Except I’m referring to an ecosystem built on top of zig. Not Zig proclaiming to solve the web’s problems. There’s two teams here that say “we think zig is good”. One, the language team (your Elm reference), the other, the bun team (and all that js ecosystem). I’m pretty confident in saying that it’s not just some plaything or niche language. Then again, I can’t predict the future and it could very well be that bun and zig both blow up. Same could be said for Rust.

Hargreaves review of intellectual property published (2011)
The full 130 page PDF of the report is available here: <https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/...>

Inspiration is a recent comment by aonala mentioning this review and critique of UK IP law published now over a decade ago, of which I find no previous mention on HN. See: <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39087624>

Defending linking the Reuters synopsis over the full report as 1) the synopsis will be more graspable by the HN readership and 2) it's an HTML link rather than PDF, latter of which introduces further frictions.

Though I suspect this is mostly of interest to the kind of person who's interested in this sort of thing.
I don’t think iPhone thieves are smart enough to connect a snatched phone’s owner’s identity to a location nor are they stupid enough to regularly go to a frequent location to unlock a stolen device. In practice, a change like this will help a lot. Most stolen phones get put into the Shenzhen parts supply chain, and it’s probably not economical for the middlemen to do bespoke work to unlock the device.
I work for IPinfo. I often see IP geolocation data being used for compliance purposes, so I will share some insights.

This question relates to algorithms and the definition Facebook has set up for "EU User". What parameters have Facebook's legal team considered adequate to label an account belonging to an EU user? It is difficult to say.

They will probably look into multiple factors like phone number location and GPS-backed data to identify the true location of an EU user. Now, the interesting part is that if you use a VPN quite frequently, you will notice that IP geolocation data is treated as a universal truth on cookieless interactions. Facebook will likely have a significant amount of data beyond IP geolocation data to infer the location information of their user. But they are likely not going to do that as they launch this new feature. So, it all comes down to how seriously Facebook wants or is required to identify an EU user.
assuming TLS isn't broken and E2E is working as intended...

isn't it more likely that someone saw the message while looking over their shoulder, was reasonably worried and alerted a security officer: "hey someone over there is messaging about harming the plane", and then things got muddled from there about technology?

even going past a ceiling camera pointing down straight at you writing a message would probably give enough resolution to see an emoji.... but it's not like airport security wants to reveal their abilities
If you are building billions of dicts, the bottleneck will not be how you initialize them as empty dicts for sure.
The R1 is an SPU (Sensor Processing Unit) which works in concert with the M2's integrated GPU (the R1 being the innie, and the M2 being the outie). It is doing an enormous amount of image signal processing, which seems to explain the 256GB/s memory bandwidth.

https://techcrunch.com/2023/06/05/apple-r1-chip-apple-vision...: "The specialized chip was designed specifically for the challenging task of real-time sensor processing, taking the input from 12 cameras, five sensors (including a lidar sensor!) and six microphones. The company claims it can process the sensor data within 12 milliseconds — eight times faster than the blink of an eye — and says this will dramatically reduce the motion sickness plaguing many other AR/VR systems."
I'm looking at them on my iPhone 14 Pro and I am having a hard time seeing any meaningful difference that changes the way the artwork registers with me.

Why should you care about the "security.txt" file on your website?
Just as “robots.txt” helps manage how search engines interact with your website, “security.txt” is a critical part of web security. This small file, placed in your website’s root directory, is a straightforward way for security researchers to report vulnerabilities.
I don't think even the most well-intentioned state have the incentives to properly allocate resources in the market. Usually, when state-owned industries fail, the taxpayer suffers, so the administration has little to no incentive to actually do good in the long run.

We can probably simplify it. If we have a system and move one level up it becomes a completely different thing. For example: one molecule in space has some properties like mass, velocity, position. But move a level up and you get pressure, flow, temperature, etc.. It's a completely different thing.

The same with models. On low level there are weights, gradients, matrices. But move up and (wow!) It's nothing like it. It's coherent text or actions. Commands and responses. Put together and you have image recognition and generation from description. It's something new with it's own laws and properties. Just a bit up and we'll get coherent behavior and social creatures. For them we need 'generic' component. It's like soul for life. And LLMs could be it. At least they are the best candidates today.

We can easily produce a surplus of all the beer we need. We have to tax it to limit consumption. We have a surplus of labour. That is the problem.

Nobody has starved to death because Flooz failed to turn a profit.

Alright, here's an idea for you: Vision Pro is shipping with the previous generation CPU. What if it was meant to ship earlier, but Apple's discrete GPU efforts got delayed? That could also explain why the M2 Mac Pro shipped without a discrete GPU, which is a glaring omission for that product.
During training, it's more efficient than full finetuning because you only update a fraction of the parameters via backprop.
During inference, it can ...

1) ... be theoretically a tad slower if you add the LoRA values dynamically during the forward pass (however, this is also an advantage if you want to keep a separate small weight set per customer, for example; you run only one large base model and can apply the different LoRA weights per customer on the fly)

2) ... have the exact same performance as the base model if you merge the LoRA weights back with the base model.
As laymen definitions are incoherent nonsense derived from fiction, the popular culture definition of AI isn't a reasonable substitute for the theory-laden definitions. The four definitions given in Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach all substantiate the claim that LLMs are AI. So not only are we not done calling LLMs AI, but it would be incorrect to claim that LLMs are not AI.

Once I was flying with my wife. She was in the window seat and she noticed that one of the plastic panels on the wall had come loose. She called the flight attendant over and told them. Long story short, they held the flight at the gate until a service crew could come and fix it (which they did by duct taping it back in place). Do you think the other passengers appreciated her perceptiveness, or was there a lot of dark muttering about why she didn't keep it to herself? (Spoiler: it was dark muttering)

I know it's been a couple of days since you posted (I just saw this now), but we (Oxide) regularly get asked when we're gonna make a consumer-oriented product. It's not just you. Though I think most requests are more like "I want a workstation" rather than thinking about it a bit more deeply, as you are. I'm going to ruminate on this :)

In our case it's not something we're pursuing near-term because well, part of the whole thesis is based on scale, so doing what we're doing but only for that doesn't make sense right now and we need to focus on the product we do have rather than developing additional products.
It's a very odd story. The major intelligence services can be very capable but the idea that a person presumably not under surveillance would have a random chat message trigger the dispatch of two fighters in, what?, maybe two hours is hard to believe. I mean, how many messages a minute (second?) contain some keyword that would trigger filterss?

I can believe someone in the Snapchat group took it seriously and called whatever the Brit equivalent of 911.

Thanks for the suggestion to do something like this! I've never made a mobile app but would love to learn how. Even if it's not to contribute to a high quality Android app for this radar thing, choosing to spend some of my time porting anything like it which also falls into the "An app can be a home-cooked meal"[0] paradigm likely means that grokking the code will be easier than with because it will be programmed with a singular vision/paradigm and lack bloat/adware/tracking/etc which would complicate reading and understanding the existing code.

This suggestion may put me on the road to find some renewed joy in programming.

Starlink revenue in 2022 is reported to be $1.4B and SpaceX is $4.6B. SpaceX did 61 launches in 2022, or $75M per launch. Elon's on record saying it costs ~$65M to launch a rocket. So, assuming there wasn't another interested buyer, SpaceX is making about $10M allowing AST SpaceMobile to launch, but there's (potentially) a billion at stake if Starlink competition arises. I realize I'm mixing revenue and profits a bit. Just trying to ballpark some numbers.

A year ago I would've agreed with you, but Starlink's revenue is up 600% YoY. There's enough money in Starlink for SpaceX to not risk it.

I don't know why they allow it. Perhaps a sign of good faith to keep regulators off their backs?
By far the main source of degradation in any typical analog audio path is going to be transducers (microphones, speakers, phono cartridges, tape heads) and inferior media (tape, etc.). The vast majority of modern amplifiers, and high end older amplifiers, are extremely transparent with good margins beyond typical human hearing; any issues like noise, harmonic distortion, uneven response, inadequate damping factor, etc. introduced at the amplifier would typically be masked by quirks of the speakers, and revealed only by measuring upstream of the speakers.
This also solves a somewhat unique problem I experienced recently with iCloud keychain where all your passwords are only as secure as your passcode (and anyone that knows it).

I had to hand my phone over to a third party repairer. This would mean they needed to know my passcode so I wanted to lock down the phone to allow them to perform whatever diagnostic steps they might need but to restrict access to the wallet and iCloud keychain.

The first part was actually quite simple using a separate screen time passcode to restrict all apps bar the camera and any that they needed. The frustrating part was that the settings app itself cannot be blocked by screentime (I guess as thats where you configure the restrictions) and as iCloud keychain passwords are accessed from settings there was no way to block access to them.

With this update I could (somewhat) safely supply my passcode while being relatively confident that my keychain passwords were not viewed.
