To me it sounds like you're backing up the post you're rebutting.
It's asked to rewrite following certain guidelines.
Random generated images slapped up in a context where there’s clearly no competing commercial interest just seems like a really silly hill to have this fight on.

Even if you take a hard line on the debate on model training data, this is an utterly harmless case, and certainly not worth the gut punch threads like this cause to someone who is just trying to share their open source project with the community.

Also, you don’t in fact know that the model used to generate this was trained with art used without consent.
Yup, and notice how the primary source doesn't mention the steel tanks of Syrup? Because it's not universally true. I worked at two McDonald's in high school and I changed the syrup many times... it was in plastic bags. It was like a bag of wine, there is a small connector on the bag where it feeds into the syrup distribution system.
> do coding LLMs use treesitter...?

It's up to the app to put that into the context. Generally, coding LLMs do well if you provide them the source tree, graph, search results, notable files, etc in the context. The is how Sourcegraph's Cody product works, for example.

Or at least, if you asked them or anyone doing their work, they'll profess lots of surprise, not to say disbelief.
YouTube has a weird legacy feature that lets certain channels set up redirects to other channels (but can be pretty easily cheesed to redirect to arbitrary paths, like the subscription confirmation URL). This, combined with another legacy feature, non @handle, channel URLs (/c/username, which can be shortened to /username), is being abused to set up redirects on commonly mistyped URLs. People buy/hack old accounts that have these features available/have valuable channel URLs and use them like this.

There's a whole underground world of social media account trade for this.

It says nowhere that the context is doing emulation for software that will not change. You just assume that because it supports the position you like. In fact, everything written applies to a program that I might write tomorrow for an XBox, and try to print something. There is nothing that designates this behavior only for old, unmaintained software.
Once upon a time I worked grill but still occasionally got roped into maintaining equipment.

Back in the day, if you pulled the nozzle off the machine then the soda and syrup would come out unmixed. They had a little graduated box you could hold under the machine and it would tell you if the mix was off. Then you fiddled with some controls and tried again.

Usually the problem with a drink was that the syrup had just run out mid pour, but sometimes the settings would get off kilter. I suspect perhaps as the filter reaches end of service life and the pressure changes.

> What you should have are companies that offer their best prices/services to the government out of fear that they'll be passed over and those highly valuable contracts will be awarded to their competitors who do better.

This requires a functional quality control system. It seems like it's cheaper to undermine/bribe (or just let decay whatever there is) the quality control system than to actually do better.

> because they risk being voted out if people are unhappy with the level of service

Votes only work if people are properly represented and have good alternatives to vote for, which doesn't seem to be the case in most countries despite them being considered democracies. Keep in mind that the leader of the DPRK is also "elected".
Edge has native vertical tabs. Killer feature.

it is just totally possible, there are so many web api-s, you just need to be a good programmer and study a lot

you will not really find or use big web apps because

1. most companies have already built their native apps with mobile engineers

2. web "programmers" or rather designers are stuck with old tech

3. web apps will start to become strategic targets(!) by most developers/companies if you are sure they are cross platform (which was crippled by Apple and now they even try to eliminate modern web capabilities on iOS

Hm? What kind of dangerous chemicals do you need to turn for example bauxite into aluminium?
First, this is awesome and we need more of this kind of thing.

Second, disclaimer: I am not now and might never be a serious algebraic and/or differential geometer. Just a fan at the moment.

I've been calling the useful transformations in LLM latent manifolds things like "substantially affine", and I think that's probably true enough of the current crop.

I don't think this about `{V, I}-JEPA` (about which there's a lot of information and I plan to look into it a lot more) or Sora (about which there is less information but is still impressive AF). One imagines that `V-JEPA` and Sora have some deep parallels/symmetries.

Either way, I'll wager that serious Riemannian geometry is rapidly on it's way to table stakes. We have extreme high-dimension spaces that result from backprop and gradient descent, some combination of smooth/continuous/differentiable/compact seem pretty likely to fall out? Along with interesting curvature tensors and parallel transport for moving around in them? And TDA for figuring it out numerically/computationally?

I'd love if an expert chimed in, I'm trying to describe an intuition with a fluency that involves pointing and gesturing.

(I'm a moderator here.)

The title you submitted ("iPissed: Apple is after web capabilities to protect close to 100B App Store Tax") broke that guideline badly. It's standard moderation practice to revert titles when submitters do this. If you felt the original title was misleading, then it would have been correct to change it, but definitely not by editorializing and making it more baity. On HN, being the submitter of an article doesn't confer any special rights over the title—I know other forums work differently, but this is an important point to understand about this one.

It's also standard moderation practice to downweight follow-up stories when a major ongoing topic has already had significant discussion recently, as this one has. We can argue about whether or not the story should have been formally marked a [dupe], but the basic moderation call to downweight it as a follow-up thread was, again, the standard one. Otherwise HN's front page would routinely be filled with follow-up discussions of the same few topics—whichever ones are most controversial that week—and that is not the site we're trying to have here.

It's not a problem, of course, that you were inexperienced with how HN works and broke the rules by accident. HN can be a cryptic place and it can take a while to get oriented. What's not fine, though, is posting indignant comments complaining about how you've been mistreated by what is in fact ordinary practice. Such meta drama is off-topic in the threads and has a way of taking over discussion if allowed to, so please don't do it again.

Also, while I have you: please don't attack other users as you did here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39410740. That's definitely not allowed, as should be clear from reviewing
https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html, and you can make your substantive points without it.

You're welcome on HN! Just please make sure not to post in the flamewar style to HN threads. Again, I know other forums work differently, but we're trying for thoughtful, curious conversation here, and flamewar destroys that, so that's the most important thing to avoid while commenting.
Secure Your Apps Like a Pro with Alex Patterson's Expert Tips [video]
My friend's son (college senior) might go to Olin, which I recommended - and I learned about it only due to Think Python.
You're right, and it's weird to hear them dunk on Atom when it had so many de-facto features Zed still lacks. They're very proud of their technical stack and their performance, but it feels more like they're defending the cathedral to discredit the bazaar.

It's their call, but I feel like I've seen this story play out the same way you describe hundreds of times. I'll never forget when the warp.dev people came to HN looking for feedback and got torn to tatters by the community. A single-platform POC editor is cool, but not really a functional replacement (or even comparison) to what Atom did and the community it garnered. I'm glad they're making what they want, but they're absolutely trapped in bubble-vision afaict.

Well, someone will have to plug cables and maintain solar panels or batteries or whatnot. Maybe the AI overlords will be ethereal neural networks in the cloud, but some kind of mechanical being (humans or robots) will need to do some groundwork.
To a Brit, the idea that an outgoing US president remains in office for weeks even if their defeat is confirmed (and sometimes even accepted!) in hours is a little odd. That's quite a bit of time to make decisions their successor will find it difficult to reverse, whether in good faith or otherwise.

(The UK convention is that the PM resigns as soon as an alternative PM candidate has the votes to secure the support of the House of Commons, which is usually the morning after the vote. Technically they could hang on and let the monarch decide if and when to recognise the alternative PM, but there's no much incentive for them to do so.)
Also, ReactJS is 11 years old and going strong. Not exactly the "new JS framework every 2 weeks" world I keep hearing about.
Soft Skills in Software Engineering
Almost everything you said. I learned Taiji after Karate, Judo and other arts, and I love how its principles can help me improve the techniques in these other arts. But it does have its own basics for punching, kicking, grappling, throwing, etc. It's just not easy to find outside of the most traditional schools.

And the weapons part, totally true - I mean, humans have always beat other animals by using tools that extend their strength, reach, speed, armor, damage, etc. You do learn to fight with your hands and feet in a pinch, but whatever stick is around increases your chances 10x if you know how to use it.
It does require a lot more land; but we have a lot of land available.

Nuclear will continue to be viable in denser areas, with lower solar resources, and when you want to get a lot of production closer to large population.

There's a reason there are so many nuclear plants in the Northeast Corridor (Boston to Washington area), and so many fewer in the southwest, and I imagine that this trend will continue.

I still consider semver better. When it is used correctly, the version number gives a clear indication of what kind of changes to expect when upgrading. Obviously this is done to the best of knowledge of the author and might not always be 100% correct.

Either way, the amount of work to do for an upgrade depends on which parts of the product you are using and whether those parts have any changes in the new version. For this reason, most projects also have a changelog which gives you more detailed information about the upgrade. When preparing for an upgrade it is advised to read the changelog.

I can help assert some bits of it. Having been a cog in the McMachine, I've learned a bit about various suppliers and hardware and pieces of the soda fountain puzzle.

https://www.pentair.com/en-us/landing-pages/mcdonalds.html

These folks supply 90% of McD's in the United States with their filtration requirements.

That then just gets fed into a (fairly mundane, actually) bag-in-box soda syrup system, just scaled up to the demands of a large fast food restaurant. The only special thing is - yes, the Coca-Cola syrup is delivered by bulk tank instead of the BIB.

The bulk tank? It's the McBulk!
https://files.chartindustries.com/10718219_McDonalds_Syrup_I...

Other than that it's your bone standard Cornelius fountain setup; though a bit beefier carbonator system.

Cold chilled water hops through the carbonator, then to the fountain, where it's then dispensed in the correct ratio required. Coke NORMALLY is 5:1 ratio, but the McCoke is 4.75:1.

If you wanted to somehow replicate this at home, you could, though it'd be a costly endeavor.
OK, carbonated beverage production is part of what I do for a living, and I see these articles all the time. They are mostly FUD.

Yes, most soda comes in a clear bag, and light could be detrimental, but that bag is in an opaque cardboard box. The system is literally called BIB (bag in box) and the box has a nozzle that pokes out of the side. They’re usually in a rack in a closet or cabinet. Soda syrup is exposed to little to no light anywhere. Nobody takes the bag out of the box. The bag just shrinks as the syrup is pumped out, no air enters. The stainless steel tanks are simply an economical function. I guarantee nobody could taste the difference between plastic and stainless steel containers if nothing else were different.

It is true that most places don’t adequately chill the liquid which decreases carbonation. I’m not sure what McDonald’s actually does in this area, they may just run it through a second pass of a cold plate. Which I advise anyone to do.

I don’t know what water filtration McD’s uses but I doubt it’s any different than anyone else. All soda machines are just installing the same carbon filters. Even if theirs was better, I don’t think any minerals in the water would taste noticeably different. (I will say, lots of crappy restaurants/gas stations don’t do a good job of changing filters at regular intervals, so McD’s may have better quality control there than a lot of places.)

The straw width may be important. I’m not sure.

The biggest factor by far is they simply use more syrup than everyone else. Soda syrups are meant to be mixed 5:1 with water. There’s a little adjustment screw you can use to calibrate it and change the ratio. Crappy gas stations dial it down a little. McDonald’s dials it up a little (I think approx 4.8:1). They syrup is very strong so it definitely makes a big difference. If you ever goof around with a soda gun and the little brixing cup (named after the measurement brix that really just means percent sugar, even though the cup is really just collecting the syrup and water separately because they come out of the nozzle separately and mix in the glass, and is used for sugar-free syrup as well) while calibrating and taste the results, you’ll see the massive difference an extra 5% syrup can have.
He's saying the customer collaboration is just a con for bleeding clients dry and he should just do programming. I read "just" as only/instead in this case.
Too bad they don’t tell the Stuffit history. How Raymond Lau (?) started it in the 80s and how it grew into the business it is now. (Is it a buneisnss I have no idea.)

Mime type detection is very interesting thing. I wrote media type detection for McAfee Web Gateway 7.x and because it was a high performance proxy, the detection speed was a major focus, but also the precision, especially for "container types, like, MS Office, OLE-based files, etc. The base of it was a simple Lisp-like language that allowed to write signatures very fast, and everything was combined with very aggressive caching of the data, so we avoided to read data again and again, and used internal caches a lot. In tests, the detection was ~10x faster than file, and with more flexible language we got more file types recognized precisely. Although there were challenges with some formats, like, OLE-based files had FAT directory structure at the end of the file, and you were need to walk the tree to find the top-level structure to distinguish Excel file from Excel file embedded into Word.

Streams detection was also quite funny task...

I've been running llama.cpp with full GPU acceleration on my AMD card, using the text-generation-webui install script on kubuntu. Same with stable diffusion using a1111. AMD's compute stack is indeed quite broken and is more fragile, but it does work using most modern cards.

It's naive to think that Xi is more powerful than the politicians who give him that power. I think you are severely misunderstanding how political power works.

I prefer the fountain. Canned or bottled coke is too carbonated, too acidic, and too sweet. It tastes corrosive, gives me hiccups, and hurts my teeth.

Cola from the fountain tastes more interesting, like the other flavours are more prominent over the raw acid and sugar flavours.

Anyway I prefer Pepsi :)
Cabling in robust internet wouldn't be too hard, if that were the only factor. Pull fiber from Salt Lake City and Albuquerque, maybe Denver and Phoenix and boom. There's US highways in all directions, so you can pull along the road, most likely. You'd get at least two way redundancy going North and South, maybe three way if you take different paths to get to Phoenix and Albuquerque.

But you also need/want robust power delivery to run a datacenter, and a single local solar project isn't robust power delivery. If you had robust power delivery, those transmission lines could be used to export the solar, and it wouldn't make sense to put a datacenter there anymore.

I work with a guy who is absolutely dedicated to using LLMs to generate C++ code. If I ask him for a specific small thing I'll get back a PR with hundreds of lines of irrelevant crap and when I ask why it has this move constructor or whatever, they won't have a good reason. Even though my colleague is an industry veteran, their new habit has made it feel like they are delegating all their work to the stupidest teammate I've ever had.

I feel like we are going to need to work out some norms and customs in this industry for using code-generating systems in a way that respects the time and attention of coworkers.
China is rolling out a couple of orders of magnitude more renewables than nuclear though. I think every country that wants nuclear bombs also needs a civilian nuclear industry, then the economics of the nuclear plants are less important.
