TLDR there is a LOT 23andme could’ve done to prevent this. Around the same time BrickLink had a similar incident, but handled it perfectly.

There is a lot that these vendors can do to protect people, even if their password and username are exposed. Things like requiring email confirmation if you’re logging in from a new IP address. Things like using the haveibeenpwned database to ensure people use good passwords. When I reset my password at 23 and it allowed me to use passwords like Password1234567.

23andme continues to disappoint.

Show HN: Deep search of all ML papers
Built an automated system to run a deep search of ArXiv and carefully find all the precise papers that exist on a complex topic.

It's different from simple RAG because it searches, classifies, and adapts based on relevant papers it uncovers, and then continues until it finds every paper on a topic (trying to mimic the human research process). Benchmarked 10x higher accuracy and total retrieval compared to Google Scholar for a median search (whitepaper on website). Also knows when it is complete, and misses virtually nothing (< 3% or so, once it's converged).

Website has a free trial and a bunch of example search reports. Want feedback and suggestions.
Mill Computing thinks so, with their "The Mill" architecture. Its proponents have sometimes described it as "Itanium done right".

The Mill uses a variable length encoding at the bit level. They also avoid encoding destination registers. This alleviates one large drawback of VLIW: code density.
Itanium itself has ~42-bit instructions: combined with EPIC, even highly optimised, the code density was often less than half that of contemporary RISC architectures. Many Mill instructions are 16-24 bits wide.

Mill programs are also supposed to be distributed in an intermediate format (think LLVM-IR, WebAssembly or ANDF), to be compiled at install-time.
This is supposed to decouple the platform in the long run from the actual instruction set on that particular CPU, allowing the instruction encoding to change between models.

However, Mill Computing has worked on their design for many years now without any product announcements. Many are afraid that its patents will expire or be sold before they get anything released.
What I personally like most about the architecture is not the promised performance but features for program security and microkernels.

Ask HN: Can the old ExpressCard spec for laptops be revived for new products?
The context here is that I recently bought a thinkpad x230t from 2012 or so and I've fallen in love with it. I like the cheap RAM (16gb for £20), the serviceability, and the idea of being able to add new bits of functionality through the ExpressCard slot.

What I'm wondering is whether or not anyone else has thought about producing new expresscard products that would be compatible with older laptops, but would update their functionality. Examples of this might be a LoRa and ZigBee module, TPU/NPU, FPGAs or things of that nature. In other words, expansions that were probably unlikely to

I'm still pretty new to this, but since ExpressCard seems to (effectively) just plug straight into a USB or PCI bus, is there likely to be any real difficulty in creating new products based upon it?

(I've no doubt this would be niche, but I'm thinking of things like crowdsupply, tindie, etc as probable outlets.)
Sir, we are not interested in your bootcamp.

The same can be said for generators like Midjourney or Stable Diffusion.

The target market is people and organisations who like/want/need the speed and low cost of generated "art" and prefer not dealing with external real world artists that need to be fairly compensated and will take time to produce an art piece.

Also laws are very murky on this for the moment (naturally, since it's a very recent new thing), and some consider that AI "art" can't be copyrighted. The EU is currently working on a new AI framework which will probably cover that.
Yeah, you can. The file will be huge though and QGIS won't be performant. Somewhere like Tokyo will be ~400 MB in OSM's PBF format but will contain ~1,300 different types of features.

Seeing these listed in alphabetical order in a file explorer makes it easier to track down only what you need to build your map.

It could be you only end up using 150 MB of GPKG files and QGIS, even on an old laptop, would be performant.
I don’t think it’s really Apple’s MO to outsource product design to any significant extent, though they do use a lot of contract manufacturing, my understanding is that they dictate how a lot of that’s done. Their brand is all about quality and seamless integration between everything, you don’t get that without being involved in every aspect.
Kind of sounds like an enterprise deal and Apple can keep selling hardware/services to funded governments and corporations?
I set it up once using the built-in WebUI, forgot about it and it just works. That is part of the beauty, no need for anything like Unifi controller running when you need to make some changes.

A good game developer provides entertainment at least. Contrasted to Twitter who under Dorsey&co shipped NFTs and 1 redesign in 10+ years. They had thousands of engineers sitting doing nothing. Imagine firing 90% of a school staff or 90% of a McDonalds staff.

Not to say that moving forward with development constantly is worthwhile either. Zuckaberg spent billions on a Metaverse which is somehow objectively much worse and buggier than VRChat.

At least in the Netherlands the majority of immigrants are of Dutch and European descent, e.g. Polish, Romanian or Bulgarian seasonal workers. I am sceptical that those are devout Muslims and use the same immigration routes as e.g. Syrian refugees. More likely they just hop in the car and drive, since that's legal within the Schengen area.

Late reply but here is an example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=INFPFC1P-iw
I've literally spent over 30 minutes on a support call with someone who had accidentally moved and resized their taskbar.

All I could get out of the user was "half the screen is grey".

I quickly figured out it was probably the taskbar, and I tried asking if it was the top or bottom half, or left or right. "Half" was the reply...

After a lot of attempts and little progress, I made a breakthrough by asking in which corner the clock was. "Bottom left", aha! And with that I managed to guide the user to dragging the taskbar back and resizing it properly.

Granted this was back in Windows 98 where the taskbar wasn't locked, so was rather easy to do, it was probably their first PC and they were non-native so language barrier.

I train LoRAs for diffusion models using collab. I've automated a good portion of it so I only have to deal with the customer saying yay or nay to a commission. The notebook I run takes a shared drive folder of pictures, or if a public figure... runs a crawler that grabs images from instagram and X. Run a face-scoring script that tosses out pictures with no faces, multiple faces, or non-target faces. Run the images through segment anything to annotate caption files. Then start training on cloud resources. It stashes 5 checkpoints and zips them up, and it emails the customer when done.

Best month I've done so far is about 2k, at about 30 USD per commission.

If you don't care about issues or wikis, it's now time to create a habit for using the command line (or the dillo plugin which automates this process):

cd $dir
git ls-tree -r HEAD
git checkout HEAD -- README.md ; less README.md
# etc.
# if you just wished to take a gander at the repo...
cd
rm -rf $dir

Yeah if you don't have a *nix-something it'd be harder, yeah you must have some spare space but usually the git bare repo shallow-cloned (downloaded only the latest revision) is under 1MB. Whatever.
These were (intended for) Unix machines, not general purpose PCs… the assumption was that everyone was compiling anything that went on the system anyways, or were buying licenses for a specific hardware box. So at least it wasn’t considered to be a problem at the time.

One other unmet hope was that improvements in compiler technology would give a peer boost, they had up to 10x over the life of the program, which seemed wishful to me at the time (a lowly validation engine just out of college) but if it had worked out, theoretically your old programs would have gotten faster over time just by recompiling, which would have been cool…
What felt like an initial thirty second throwaway comment yesterday has turned in to a pile of replies that feel like a poorly conceived Ted talk now, forgive me for that.

The dividing line between variables that should be prefixed by export are ones that are generally useful to child processes and ones that are not.

For example, $PATH is useful and should be exported. You probably want scripts you start to have access to all the things you have installed, not just the locations of the default search path:

PATH= =zsh -fc 'print -l $path'

$HISTFILE/$PROMPT/etc control current shell behaviour and are unlikely to be of any use to child processes executed by the shell, and do not need to be exported. Remembering, of course, that they'll be set by any new interactive shells anyway as they too will read their startup files when launched.

Oftentimes it doesn't make much difference. However, some such as $CDPATH can cause non-obvious bugs when they're exported, and some such as $HISTFILE can cause data corruption or even loss when the planets align against you.

For real. Recently re-activated my eBay account after 10 years to buy a relatively obscure item and amazingly it is almost exactly the same site that it was 20 years ago.

I guess there's something to be said for not chasing infinite growth, but eBay and Craigslist having their lunch eaten was entirely predictable. Not sure how many employees eBay has, but it feels like they could lay off 90% and nobody would notice. They're already coasting off the grid.

Generally, the US seems to play a role similar for the EU that China does to the US. Regulations run a bit weaker, so companies can do nasty stuff with externalities, then the US (and the EU) can take advantage of it with the externality pushed off.

Like, the EU will have generative AI...a little lagged, but regulated for the interest of people. The comparatively lawless US will get the dirty hit, and they'll get the clean version. Maybe not even from US companies. If US companies just flee the regulation, they will probably have domestic companies doing it in compliance with their regulation, and if they lag a bit in innovation, they will see what happened in the US, then implement it in a compliant manner, and that has the advantage of boosting the domestic economy instead of relying on US tech anyway.

However, it doesn't seem quite that simple, because it ignores the economic advantage of more lax regulation, which doesn't run entirely disjoint from human interests, and it might account a little for the large size of the US economy. The calibration seems a bit off in the US. While a much poorer country, I like how Bhutan explicitly has a Gross National Happiness index, not just a GDP. It certainly feels like the GDP gets too much attention and the US treats economics as an end in itself, not in service to human happiness, with predictable results. (Obviously, I'm speaking in generalities. China has the 996, work 6 days a week, 9AM-9PM, which seems like a greater deprioritization of happiness for economics than the US. I mean the US would do better to keep the GDP in perspective as an element of happiness, perhaps an important one, but a subservient* one.)

> For example, footage from a doorbell camera was used as evidence in the fatal stabbing of a woman in Hengelo on 24 December 2019...

A cop not seizing that recorded evidence is neglecting their duty full stop. If you're worried you might record a murder/attempt murder and then have to provide that evidence the answer is not to have the camera recording a public place then.

I mean what's the reason for these cameras if not to provide evidence of crimes commited against the owner at the doorstep. You cant have it both ways.

Cultural factors. When you try to get a group of stakeholders to develop a schema you find many people feel the same way about visiting the ontologist that they do to the orthodontist.

It takes a huge amount of patience to spend 1 1/2 hours working out the ontology of an application with a customer and then get called back right away because the customer felt uncomfortable because the rigorous and correct model you just made doesn't fit their intuition about the situation.

Right but this is generating decent-quality video in segments longer than the time of your average movie shot. I'm sure it'd take some fiddling but I'm excited for a model this good to come out so I can try some fancy multi-shot videos.

I saw someone else say "I'm sure it'll be crap like all of the other AI stuff I've seen" but that's a naive view. Things that have been 100% created by AI, sure they're kind of boring a lot of the time. But this kind of tech gives people with a creative mind, but no money or time or resources to create a storytelling movie/video, the resources to do it. Obv ignoring the fact that Goog will never release this, if something like this did come out, it'd be game changing for a lot of people.

Think about something like RPG Maker. Yeah we've had a ton of random garbage come out of that platform but there were also incredible.

AI isn't just some garbage maker. It is a paint brush that enables people who are alone in their room to make something bigger than them.

To reframe the point the parent made: Boeing is a special case due to the fact that those above the CEO are uniquely institutional (large investment) and the company enjoys a level of "socialized failure protection" from the US government that few other companies get.

At least other companies that get cushy treatment from the US government often have more competition, like GM.
Looks like William Gibson's Turing Registry is being constructed by the EU - although I imagine they won't be sanctioning their own or allied governments for using AI to automatically generate kill lists and conduct assassinations in regions under their own military occupation, will they? See:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38644725

AI-based detection of a 'possible supporter of violent resistance' for targeted assassination is on par, accuracy-wise, with identification of a 'potential customer for a new laptop' for a targeted advertising campaign. I imagine it's a very similar approach, in which user behavior is recorded by Google or similar and fed into an AI system which then generates a list of products/services that target might want to buy (or political opinions they might hold, etc.).
The first post - which I responded to - is _explicitly_ about the government paying people to do art:

> Games in this day and age ideally need generous government subsidy to be successful.

> something like an artist's living wage provided by the government is a necessity to produce good independent video games

> but the funding really needs to come from an entity that is largely divorced from the [financial] "success" of the game.

In the Netherlands, "the Media" and "far right" are often direct opposites, at least, that's how the far right wants it to look. Data shows that "far right" gets more media time than many other parts of the political spectrum, yet they keep saying this media "censors" them.
