I've Created a Email Security Solution
Did you know? Over 3.4 billion phishing emails land in inboxes every day.

I've created a cost-effective solution to shield companies from the increasing threat of phishing attacks - phishtrap dot io

I'm seeking assistance from the startup community to test this application.
Please try it out, and your feedback can help me enhance its capabilities.
It's free, and if you need the trial period to be extended.
Thanks, but the linked source seems very sketchy, it never actually cites or even specifies where it got the information.

e.g. >In addition, using data from a nationwide inventory, we reach a figure of 105 million metered spaces.

It never mentions what the source of this 'nationwide inventory' is, who made it, when, etc...
Dark forest ending, anyone?
Seeing as you have the eye tracking you could probably greatly reduce the FPS/bitrate of windows that are out of gaze. This kind of foveated rendering seems to already be used in their ecosystem so I assume its sufficiently slick for Apple. Apps will sleep when not being gazed and such.

This allows you to restrict full bitrate to a single window with a maximum resolution and keep the user experience high and astonishment low.
to be honest, even AppleTV has per app ads I wish I could turn off. Whatever app is highlighted gets to show ads on the top half of the screen. I'd prefer no ads unless I launch the app
In that time between XD's inception and Figma's buyout attempt, hasn't Sketch caught up to Figma and become a decent competitor to it? I haven't used it in a while because my employer doesn't support it and my freelance work has effectively ended.
Yeah, I'm sure some of the experience quality is because the only other riders are people Waymo selected for the beta, and nobody wants to get kicked out for misbehavior. We've joked a few times "don't forget that water bottle, I don't wanna get banned!"

On the other hand though, I have seen misplaced items in Waymos a couple times and when I reported them in the app they pulled the car for cleaning ASAP. I actually did leave a water bottle once - a disposable, single use one - and they emailed me asking me if I wanted them to return it! That kind of vehicle management feels more like a benefit inherent to centralized taxi fleets than a benefit inherent to AVs, but it's something Waymo can take advantage of. I would guess the in-car cameras would be capable of detecting vomit-related events etc too.

No, you aren't (at least in my area), but even if you are that's not the government's problem.

It is "voluntary". The quotes are there for a reason because it can be highly inconvenient not to "volunteer", but it is possible (at a cost in most cases).

> It will absolutely be our undoing as a country that we cannot see the forest from the trees.

Third party data access will not be our undoing.

For one, it's not that serious of an issue, and we can ultimately change the law if enough people feel strongly enough about it.

that's a fair clarification. I was trying to address the idea that all of the milestones were predicted, which I have seen a few times in the thread.
No, not everyone is. It's one of the ways you can do this, though.
> This is the logic that is hard to dispute. Your arguments here are not addressing that

> If you want to refute the theory you need to attack the main argument

I did not mean to address any arguments for or against simulation. And definitely did not want to refute the theory.

Where did you get that idea?

I am just saying to be careful about assuming too much about the world that is running the simulation in case we live in one.

I dislike ruby, purely as a matter of personal preference. As a baseline, python is probably as "dynamic" as I can tolerate, and java I just don't have enough experience with sadly enough. I use mostly c++/go/python with some julia and rust (not enough to have tons of experience with it though!). I'd day try dart, it's very easy to pick up. In some odd ways it reminds me of swift!

The A.I. Dilemma (2023) [video]
My take is that one way to make sure that value > cost for tests is to use tests as a form of documentation or to support documentation.

One of the best applications for "literate programming" is to put all the code snippets in the documentation into unit tests. If you don't do that it seems impossible that you could write a book like The C Programming Language and have the examples really work.
The car doesn't tell you anything about their capability. Successfully getting a hard degree does.
To really understand it's changes, you first need a book with pictures of the valley from the 1940's to the 1960's. I don't have such a book but I've seen a number of pictures when the valley was all orchards. Then you overlay those with modern day pictures and you see how places like Sunnyvale, Mountain View, and Palo Alto transformed into large cities that essentially removed those trees and replaced them with buildings, houses, and roads. I could study those pictures for hours.

This is not new. Potential resolves through constructive and destructive interference as state in the moment of now.

State is not the building block of existential reality (as classical tautological theory insists), potential is.

Nice post! Definitely subscribed to this feed. I'm building a modular synth and currently working on a VCO based on the CEM-3340's which have, for reasons I don't know, some fine folks have been making again.
You can get as many independent Macaroons from us as you want, so while there are ways to handle this with third-party caveats (and never talking to our servers to get another token again), the simpler thing for token provenance with our system is the same as it would be with any other: just issue multiple tokens.
This idea is super old. There was a game like this that was popular like 10 years ago. This is a worse version.
Somewhat. It is symmetric key based, so only the initial issuer can do verification. It is not part of a distributed data store, so there can be multiple copies (and derivatives) of a macaroon floating around.

Basically, a trusted service creates an initial atom and shares it with the initial party.

That trusted atom can be copied and shared. Anyone with a copy can amend additional information to it, and share those copies. Based on the copy you get, you can't remove or alter any information received.

So it works best for representing restrictions - maybe my user agent gets a token that gives full access for a project. It shares a version with another service endpoint which is restricted to read-only access. That service endpoint sees it needs to kick off a background process, so it creates a version which also adds on a 4 hour time limit.

None of these changes are necessarily authenticated - I don't know that it specifically was the user agent that shared the token with the service or added the read-only restriction, at least with the core tech.

You have to create a domain language to specify all of these things. If you want restrictions to be authenticated, you need to describe how to sign them individually with PKI.

While HMAC is fast, you still have the whole system rooted in a single trusted service that can mint any messages it wants or lie about the validity of a given message.

So while it is indeed a chain of cryptographic elements, it is missing the multi-party validation and operation transparency which are the common selling points of distributed ledgers.

Yeah i feel your pain here. Fly has a lot of things that feel like they're hidden features, or at least, undocumented. Like, its trivial to get all the env vars from a machine, but i couldn't find this in the documentation anywhere. Someone else i was working with told me how and now..i know?

fly ssh console --command env

To be fair, it is mentioned in their docs, i just couldnt find it searching things like "how to find my environment variables".

> I think - as general knowledge - that manufacturing in China usually saves in the cost. But that's not the big part of the budget.

'General knowledge' is that it only saves significantly in cost if your willing to accept significantly lower quality.

If somehow it was figured out to make 'well understood tech that's been around for several decades' of the same quality, at a significantly lower cost, that's literally more important than probably every other innovation or contribution in the project.
It's as meaningless as the question whether there is "a god." If our universe is indeed somehow embedded in an outer universe, at what point does that make it a "simulation" vs. just being the underlying mechanism from which the known universe emerges? It requires imagining some "beings" that are running the simulation to which you can ascribe human qualities like intent to create or intent to deceive. Without them, it's not a "simulation," it just is.

The simulations that we create are subject to the physics of this universe, so they inherit fundamental limitations like finiteness and boundedness of everything. If we then find that some aspects of physics seem to obey the same principles, that's evidence for exactly nothing. Furthermore, the host universe could be literally anything and may be subject to completely different limitations.

It's an unfalsifiable and thus meaningless idea.
They're not compelled to but they don't want to invest in stocks due to bad experiences in the past. Now there is a bad experience with investing in real estate.

You have to store wealth somewhere otherwise you'll constantly be losing wealth. Ideally, one could simply bank their savings without it losing value while also investing in a variety of other assets rather than putting everything into stocks or real estate but that's not the world we live in at the moment.

If you believe people should be paid for their work then you should also believe that the money they are paid for their work should not be bled away from them.

Yes, for themselves. But I doubt anyone on this current thread is a Figma founder, meaning we’re discussing if it’s a good or bad thing for users.

You would argue for the importance of research verbally, or in some kind of proposal document, though. There's no need to include part of that document in the final publication.

My suspicion has been that SNP array data is not that useful for drug discovery. They’re targeting the most common/variable SNPs, which I suspect don’t have a large health effect (except for maybe late in life, otherwise how would they get passed down). I would suspect the more valuable targets would be rarer, or arise de novo (as is common in cancer, eg driver mutations).

IMO modifying life style for chronic car owners is nonstarter. Simple / fair incentivize is to make it justifiably expensive. Reduce street parking / op lots. If stores want car customers, they need to build parking infra onsite, either above or below grade. Expensive car elevators if they have to. Charge premium for parking costs. If they try to pass on cost to all customers instead of just drivers, then their prices will be less competitive with stores without onsite parking. Car owners have right to car, but they should pay for all of externalities, and if that works out to be expensive parking bill everytime they bulk shop then so be it.
The people are identical. You already know they have equal capability.

You, the employer, are just performing a coin flip to choose, albeit using a medium that is not an actual coin. Using up precious resources to weight the coin in your favour as the worker might find short-term gain, but you will lose in the end. The data around this is abundantly clear.

Those who actually succeed long-term find a way to leverage their resources to ensure that they are not identical to the other guy – but to become one who is better. Distracting yourself by the coin flip is a recipe for failure, as we see time and time again.
> I have also pointed that while for Intel this repeats their previous two process launches, which is not a good sign, TSMC has never had such problems recently.

I'll be blunt: you're interpreting a "problem" where none exists. I went back and checked: when Ivy Bridge parts launched the 22nm process (UNDENIABLY the best process in the world at that moment, and by quite a bit) the highest-clocked part from Intel was actually a 4.0 GHz Sandy Bridge SKU, and would be for a full 18 months until the 4960X matched it.

This is just the way Intel ships CPUs. They bin like crazy and ship dozens and dozens of variants. The parts at the highest end need to wait for yields to improve to the point where there's enough volume to sell. That's not a "problem", it's just a manufacturing decision.
I've found working in Godot a lot more intuitive than Unity (and definitely enjoyed the experience a lot more), but Godot still has a lot of rough edges, and version compatibility is very poor. If you go Unity you'll have access to a lot more canned assets and a much larger community, but, Godot is growing and maturing rapidly and is definitely a viable option.
Company doesn’t owe them a job.
.. and another thing: although I work in an office some of the week, my boss^2 works in a different city and the parent company including people I work with frequently is in a different country in a different timezone. I can't not be remote from some people, because we're spread out.

Building a massive office, getting visas, and paying staff enough to afford to live within commuting radius of a particular city in the western United States is very expensive.
I'm not a Mac user but something like this would be nice for me. I'm visually impaired, and I have to be very close to the screen so I have my main monitor on an arm so it can float above my keyboard. Then I have a second screen (or laptop) on a desk next to me, but to see that I have to turn 90 degrees and lean in, which makes it awkward to use my keyboard/mouse. This is better with a laptop because it gives me a second keyboard/mouse for the second monitor, but I have to keep moving the cursor back and fourth. My solution so far has been to use Autohotkey to define some hotkeys that move my mouse to the center of my main display and the center of my secondary display, which works surprisingly well.

Although to be honest, I rarely use the second display. I mainly use it while screen sharing in a meeting so I can have notes and stuff up on my main display.

Show HN: 2x Faster Stable Diffusion Models on Hugging Face with Pruna AI
Hugging Face link with 25+ models :)

At Pruna.AI we built a tool that automatically implements and combines optimizations and ML compression algorithms for your model/hardware to make them more efficient at inference. We decided to run it on the most popular Stable Diffusion models on an NVIDIA A100 and publish the models and gains on Hugging Facen, so you can all leverage them for your AI image generation projects.

The instructions and comparison metrics are on each model README, with about 2x speedup for A100. The models are compatible with most other NVIDIA GPUs. The first couple of generations are slower so warm up the model to get the full speedup.

Soon we'll update these models with even more gains and publish others for LLMs, Computer Vision etc

According to each use-case our tool can do a mix of methods including quantization, compilation, pruning, other architecture-specific algorithms etc. We're always adding new algorithms to the mix and making the implementation frictionless by providing easy config options and improving compatibility with new setups.

If you have custom requirements or finetuned models you'll need to leverage our tool yourself to make your models more efficient, so feel free to contact us for that.
In the meantime we're happy if we can make efficient ML more accessible to everyone, starting with these stable diffusion models on Hugging Face. Tell us if there's other ones you want us to publish on Hugging Face :)

Yeah I wouldn't expect it to counter such problems. Peer review is by its nature review by other people in the same field. If you have a field where "bogus" methods are being used in thousands of papers then you aren't going to be able to get things reviewed properly.

> But, I do think that most of these have more potential as a "demo", that you do a few times but would not motivate you to use a headset every day, beyond a relatively small group of people.

This matches everyone I’ve heard talk about it, too. It was fun, they enjoyed a few things and then at some point they realized that their headset had multiple months of dust on it.

I think the big question is when costs come down to the point where it’d be reasonable for a non-rich family to have enough headsets to use together. Most people mention technical limits (resolution, latency) but the thing which everyone mentioned as a dealbreaker was that putting the headset on was shutting out everyone around them.
