> often the picture you see is of item A but the price shown is for a lesser item B in the same listing

Many large eBay sellers do this. For example, they may offer phone cases for £5 each and a screen cleaning kit for £1, all as different variants of the same listing, so that their listing appears alongside other £1 items in a search for phone cases. It is technically a violation of eBay's listing policy,[1] but is widespread as the rule is not enforced in practice.

You don’t understand. The stack currently deployed in Tesla vehicles _will never be capable_ of anything even remotely resembling AGI. There’s just not enough compute there by several orders of magnitude, even if we knew how to do it, which we don’t.

When AI gets good enough to really displace programmers, it probably won't require as much supervision as it does today. It might feel more like the AI is prompting you instead of the other way around... But idk, it remains to be seen just how good it will actually get.
Here is the Python port of test-as-linear developed by George Ho (eigenfoo):

I really enjoyed playing it, seems to hit the right sweet spot of difficulty. The earlier puzzles (1-4) seemed a bit easy at first, but not so easy to deter me from continuing. With #5 I needed a bit of back and forth, but not frustratingly much.

Also I really like the graphics and sound, it's pleasant to look at and to listen to, which is important for a puzzle game imo.
iPhones have only gotten bigger over time. To make a product dramatically smaller and lighter without severe compromises on performance and fidelity is extremely difficult. Just compare ear buds with proper ear-enclosing headphones.

Vision is no different: it’s just very difficult to build tiny, low power, ultra-high resolution displays. Then actually driving these displays is very difficult to do in a tiny package, due to the computing power requirements.
Heh, yea, it's like the people arguing with you have not paid attention for the last 50 years. Wages have been mostly stagnant since the 70s with little growth. Piles of jobs (actually production) have been offshored, then later brought back to the US as part of the jobless recovery, instead when a manufacturing job comes back the company employees an order of magnitude less people and uses machines and capital far more intensely.

Simply put, when we look at the trends of AI improvement we are tasked with the question, what is going to cause the sustainment of human labor for its current value across broad areas of all markets?

One trend in my local Amazon that took me some time to notice was that sellers are no longer selling cheap stuffs at cost - I forgot what it was but let's say there was a little decorative gardening blind cap, and that cap was normally sold at $1.50 at physical stores, and it's $7.50 on Amazon. I was almost buying one of such things, then realized it can't cost that much, and that I can just walk to a physical store that has it to get it instantly.

That made me realize that pricing on Internet is now more proportionate to utility than cost to deliver. People in the market for a cap to cover an unsightly pipe in the backyard pays that price, especially under $15 or whatever relative tolerable multiple of local minimum wages.
My dentist claimed gold amalgams are even more durable because they mold even better into the cavity. He himself actually had only gold fillings done.

An indexer doesn't download content. The only information you'll have is the name of a torrent, potentially its files, and who is interested in those files.

But that's the technical view, what happens in court might be totally different.
Also see figure 3 of https://www.onsemi.com/pub/collateral/and8074-d.pdf which gives a schematic of USB lines and says "if a 1.5 k pull up resistor is connected on either the D+ or D− line, the port is identified as upstream". Unfortunately downstream devices have pull-down to ground, so when not being driven would rest at low voltage, which I can't think of a great way to help to distinguish downstream USB from headphones.

I don't think this is that cut and dry. Its perfectly reasonable to be fine with your content being linked to in an index like google search does, but not fine with the content being read by humans for free or used to train AI.

I'm sure the sites would rather that google paid them in licencing too, but without changes to our laws that's not going to happen

I sort of understand the knee-jerk reactions to this. Hacker News is for humans, not robots, and there was an annoying trend of commenters posting LLM-generated summaries of articles, which deserve to get flagged off the page until they stop.

But I find it noteworthy, and in fact impressive, that ChatGPT can de-obfuscate and discern the meaning of this code. Letting the rest of us know that is a worthy contribution to the discussion.

I would suggest leading with a clear statement of why you're posting chatbot output, though. Folks around here have an allergy to that sort of thing for a reason.

Even without any AI, every senior I know( 10+ years of experience) is pretty much trying to shift to architect or similar position and sees day to day programming almost on the same level as sweeping floors.

Line numbered BASICS were not hard to implement. They fit into small ROM images, complete with floating-point routines and graphics primitives. Those dialects do not have a fully blown nested syntax. Expressions nest, but statements do not. In each line of code, the parser has to deal with just one kind of phrase structure: like a GOTO, IF, or assignment.

BASIC interpreters tokenized the lines of the program into a compact representation, using just one byte for keywords and such. This was homoiconic: lines of code could be recovered back to text via listing them, and edited.

BASICs executed relatively fast, given the processors they were running on, and had predictable performance characteristics. Only string manipulation hit garbage collection pauses.

I certainly think they would have been safer. Bear in mind though, at the time, Windows had 97% of the desktop market [0]. This wasn't a corporation with ~50% of the market (like Android in the US) trying to muscle in, this was a company with their hooks so deep in personal computers that any product they pushed became a de-facto standard that everyone was expected to at least have access to, if not use.

Hell, the most dominant companies on the planet today, including the literal trillion dollar ones, do not have that kind of market penetration. Google search, the closest I can think of, is still <92% [1]. And it's not that I think holding 92% of a market is good. Nor do I think Apple should get away with only allowing re-skins instead of real browser engines. But percentages are room to quibble, and re-skins can be spun as integration or security.

Whenever Apple's gilded cage comes up, there's backlash, whataboutism, and apologists - so as we start to force interop, openness, and more pro-consumer behavior, I stick to the unimpeachable arguments. Even if it's just till we break the inertia and get the ball rolling. I think you're right, and you make an excellent point. But first I want to convince even the Apple die-hards that this level of control is fucked up, because then we can all agree that something has to change.

Meta's first gen product didn't cost 3500 dollars and come with no apps. You could at least play Beat Sabre and some other games on it at launch.

Apple's feels too much like a polished devkit, not like a consumer-ready product.
It looks like with ai tools there will be less demand for engineers. For example, instead of keeping 300k people around, Google will replace 200k of them with ai-engineer ai-coder ai-tester.

Hunter gatherers range over vast expanses of territory, they have to. A few fields is insignificant in comparison. Of course that grows with the population, but that’s the far future for anyone trying to survive right now at the point agriculture becomes an option.
You have standardized on int64 = nanoseconds. Libraries you use might have standardized on int64 = milliseconds, int64 = seconds, double = seconds, or the preferred DateTime class/struct of your programming language — even the C standard library has `struct tm` [0].

If you’ve wrapped your int64 in some struct/class/type-alias-without-automatic-downcasting, it might be fine. But if you haven’t, you might end up mixing the different scales, or littering the code with pointless conversions to and from the standard DateTime class/struct.

There is no perfect solution. However, I actually prefer Pycharm's built-in typechecker, because JetBrains is BY FAR the best at checking syntactically incorrect code, i.e. code that you're in the middle of typing out.

But, Pycharm's still quite limited compared to pyright or even mypy. So I find myself A) doing an extra linting pass with pyright or mypy; and/or B) adding redundant annotations/overloads to help pycharm figure out what's going on.

Just a nitpick, we typically call it a local minima, because we are trying to minimize energy. A stable protein will be at (or near) the minimal energy conformation.

Otherwise, I think you are absolutely correct. It's a nearly infinite computational problem that has a tendency to overfit. There are all sorts of ways to try to solve this problem, but they don't always work as well in all cases.
I work in this field and own a Tesla. It routinely sees things in my garage that aren’t there. I would not entrust my life and that of my family to their “FSD”, and I know the science does not exist to fix out of domain errors 100%. It is an outstanding product in all other regards. I just wish they’d stop promising the stuff they obviously can’t deliver
I didn’t say you can’t criticize household names with the highest honor in their field.

I’m saying that it takes some cheek to say there’s nothing original about results that many experts (who are nothing to do with me, and me in a narrow way) think are pretty hot shit.

I try (and sometimes fail) to confine my strident claims requiring strident evidence to topics I’m willing and able to get into the nitty gritty on, and bring my CV and reputation to the party as a courtesy. Anyone can post biased-sounding shit and hand-wave over the substance of the claim under an 11-month burner named with malice aforethought to talk shit and be able to disavow it.

I gave you a rather firm tap on the shoulder about how borderline at best this move is, and under the assumption you’ve got an HN main, you know this.

I had hoped you might put the effort that went into doubling down into explaining the apparently obvious prior art, the whataboutism kick flip into the Shockley Race IQ trope made zero people more enlightened and steered a contentious thread even further off the rails. Nobel laureates do in fact go off the friggin rails from time to time, but I don’t think LeCun is an interesting comparison to Kary Mulis past “AM Radio yelling”. I’m calling that one out.

Maybe elaborate on a pretty debatable claim instead?

>If the gov changes an area with office buildings to mixed zoning then some will be converted and some wont because of cost.

Unless, because of the costs, none of them are. And while that does no harm, if the purpose of changing the zoning was to get more housing, then it also does no good. The profitability of the conversion absolutely should be a consideration, because a tax abatement or something could effect change where simply altering zoning might not.
It’s very much possible to buy a BYD in Norway, yet they don’t sell well. I don’t know why BYD doesn’t try harder. Maybe too small market to bother investing a lot, so they rather import a few cars at too high prices to check the Norway box.

As cool as these look, I can't think of a single instance where pretty slides made a talk more interesting or memorable to me.

I recently bought an EV and it's obvious that they still have some significant downsides: expensive up front and poor public charging situation, mostly.

The ID4 we got is very comfortable to drive around in, but doing a road trip in Winter feels out of the question. Not that it'd be completely impossible, mind, but I'm pretty confident it'd be a pain in the ass. We'd need to stop more frequently than in our CRV, for a longer period of time each time, and the whole situation with electric car chargers are that sometimes they're broken or working worse than expected, or they're all taken (and it takes way long for a spot to be freed up than at a gas station), or there's problems with the software running the charger, etc.

It'd also be nice if it charged faster and had more range too; it's not terrible on those metrics, but I wouldn't say it's great. Certainly not comparable at all to gas cars.

Please bear in mind that Linux has used non-standard GCC extensions to C for decades as well. The tradeoffs here are their call to make.

Besides, at this stage, it makes perfect sense for Linux to use unstable Rust features. It was one thing to say Rust should be great for writing kernels, it's another to actually get feedback on how it needs to be better, and that's only possible if the potential improvements are motivated by those who need them and incubated without the constraints of backwards compatibility nor the risks of locking in permanent tech debt.

Rust's unstable feature concept was designed for exactly this kind of freeform evolution and it's working exactly as intended. As for the specific tradeoffs being made in Linux, its contributors are in a much better position to weigh those than we are.
Yeah, that's 1 speeding fine/month. That would suck. Luckily for Apple, serial lawbreaking won't incur criminal charges...
They are... different stories. The course invited the students to imagine when the Greeks were so obsessed with honor (just as we might be, say, so obsessed with riches), and how it nevertheless manifests in places in modern society. There is a value to that exercise.

Also likely because it might have been one of few books accepted for a standard qualification.
