In the US “house” usually refers to the venue - house wine, house band, etc means that supplied by the hotel. You rent a ballroom, you want a band, the hotel can provide the house version, kind of generic.
I definitely though this article would be about something else...
Yeah, that's the history I remember. It's been a 10+ year branding...journey. To put it nicely.

Is this actually as dramatic as the title implies? The email says "we will no longer publish content on vice.com." That doesn't necessarily mean they'll pull vice.com offline.

Either way, between this and Pitchfork winding down, it really feels like we're entering new times culturally.
Coffee really complements certain fats on my palate. Avocado and coffee taste like magic to me. Some cheeses too. Peanuts and almonds are good too. Bacon and eggs are fine, but not particularly special. I love coffee and a simple 80/20 hamburger with mayo and potato bun.
Once they started trolling, they stopped making planes, it was only after the patents expired and the founders left the business and they merged with curtis and a rational patent pooling system emerged that US aviation surged ahead. Radio was much the same, and they eventually used pools in the same way.
I am not sure if the USA can repair their system, as it feeds and sustains a huge swarm of parasites, much like the US medical system
I created helper functions in my test that create a full user directrory with whatever concents I want. then my tests can write whatever they want, the dir is deleted at the end of the test. Tempdir isn't safe againts an attacker, but it is good emough for tests. in the real world file systems are fast enough to use in tests.

we use sqlite as our datatbase so it is simple enough for helpers to apply a schema to an in memory database and again the database can be used in tests.

i'he become against mocks in tests. A usefull tool, but rarely needed. You can make tests reliable and fast without them.
Wolfram WAS the first set of MacArthur fellows. It counts for something..
This isn't a brain teaser at all. It's a direct test of domain knowledge/experience.

There are countless well-documented RoundTripper implementations that handle this case correctly.

This is the sort of thing you whip up in three minutes and move along. To me it seems like a perfect test of LLMs. I don't need an injection of something that's worse than stackoverflow polluting the code I work on.

Yes. The option now exists to have private digital means of exchange, free from direct government devaluation. There are absolutely drawbacks; it is not for everyone.
It’s particular to a portion of the US - in the northern Midwest garages are used for the cars. In the south? Not as necessary.
I said "nobody does" because nobody can. It's a practical impossibility to run your own email today. It doesn't even matter if you have the necessary advanced technical skills. It's just not possible. https://cfenollosa.com/blog/after-self-hosting-my-email-for-...

As the owner of the same cell phone number for the last 23 years, proposing hosting your own email as an alternative to SIM cards that's available at every corner doesn't sound feasible to me at all. I don't even like cell operators, but that's just the way it is.
Hi all, engineer who worked on forms @ Retool here. Excited to get HN’s feedback on a new product I’ve been working on: Retool Forms. There are a ton of form builders out there (e.g. Typeform, Google Forms, Airtable Forms, etc.) and honestly we weren’t really looking to build another one. But as a developer, I wanted my data in my database, not in another SaaS app (which probably has a shoddy API, like every example I listed above). Surprisingly, the only way to build a form on top of my database was by a) building my own backend (probably via node), and b) building my own frontend (probably via React, and then maybe via formik). There was no “one click” form-on-top-of-my-database tool available.

So we decided to build a form builder. It allows you to:

1. Send data directly to your database (Postgres in our case), your data warehouse, or wherever else you want it

2. Write JS almost anywhere on the front-end, including libraries like moment and lodash, for custom validations, conditional logic, and data parsing

3. Run any arbitrary code in form submission (or validation), via our Workflows product

4. Store it in our database (where we give you a connection string), or your own database

5. Self-host it in your own VPC

And it’s free with no arbitrary limits on the number of users, forms or submissions.

I’m hoping to ship a bunch more features like integration to any REST API, more styling options, etc. If you have any feedback please let me know!
> These things are "only" next token/word guessers.

This is precisely the kind of vacuous "this is technology, I know technology, this is simple" hubristic underestimation that's being called out.

There is no upper bound to the intelligence of a "next token/word guesser". You can end up incorporating an entire world model to your predictions to improve their accuracy, and arguably this has already happened, to a currently-unreliable and basic level. It is possible that no technological advances are required to reach better than human intelligence from this point -- only more compute, bigger models and datasets, and (therefore) better next-token predictions.
So, basically StumbleUpon? Do I really have to sift through one page at a time with no filtering options?
(As far as I know, Wi-Fi is an alternative to Ethernet, not wireless Ethernet.)

I've looked at a few articles and it does look like they're actually using Wi-Fi.

(This will no doubt confuse some non-techie people, who use "Wi-Fi" to mean "an Internet connection".)
The public needs to know the ugly truth. Students are SIGNIFICANTLY behind
This basic same scenario is currently happening with SawStop safety saws, but at least SawStop is manufacturing saws.

SAP S4/HANA- the "new" ERP software is hardcoded to calculate depreciation until 2045. As programmers you probably know it could be untill year 9999 or much further.

But the consultants will not be out of work. Also a way to push customers to upgrade.

Artificial problem.

On a side note, I there is in my opinion a place for a new ERP disruptor. However making it is hard. Still even those small fish often manage to get money.

I was kinda happy when my company replaced their previous feel good nonsense ‘principles’ with ‘do the right thing, even when nobody is looking’.

Of course it doesn’t change anything about the people that work there, but the people at the top now clearly have a better idea of how it works than the last ones :P
Hi guys! I recently deployed your open source product for a client - great code.

One thing I personally see expanding is document generation. This involves a tailored Q and A generation pipeline, specific RAG and the use of knowledge graphs and ontologies down the line.

I’m curious as to how you are going to towards that very clear future and therefore stay ahead of copilot as an example.
The key advantage for a garage is the zero-cost to carry - you can delay without being eaten alive by costs just for the space.

The advantage of a Hackerspace is access to tooling.
I wish we had metrics for utility companies. In my midwestern experience, things have gotten worse. I don’t remember any outages as a kid in the 90s that were over 24 hours aside from the major blackout in the early 2000s. As an adult I’ve experienced several outages greater than 24 hours in both summer and winter months. It’d be nice to be able to measure this.
This is dot-com rush all over again, but it's worth keeping in mind the dot-com rush (with some poetic license) gave us Google, Amazon, Meta, and much of the value of modern Apple+Microsoft.

Those are five of the top ten companies in the world by market cap.

Not many more dot-coms on the list of top 100 though:

https://companiesmarketcap.com/

It was a winner-takes-all market with a few big winners and a lot of losers.

There's a lot of product to be made. AI is already transforming a lot of businesses. It's too early to tell who the big winners will be, how the market will be structured, or what will happen.

I suspect, in the metaphor, NVidia is the Cisco or the Sun Microsystems. They power the gold rush. Cisco is #60 on biggest companies, and Sun died 14 years ago. I suspect NVidia is now overvalued, but I suspect it should still be highly-valued.

I suspect things will self-correct if AMD, Intel, or one of the startups gets software in shape. The problem is that as much as NVidia can maintain competitive advantage, competition is likely to cap profit margin. If Intel is 30% less efficient than NVidia in compute-per-dollar, than NVidia's profit margin can be at most 30% more than Intel.
Here are the docs: https://docs.retool.com/apps/forms. Just added a link to them from the landing page. Agree we should also add a quick demo to the landing page
Oh also note that the very same drugs are cheaper elsewhere -- retail prices are indeed still around $1000, but in other countries and on insurance it's cheaper.

Insurance companies are in the process right now of trying to restrict coverage to anything but type 2 diabetes patients right now.

The average American household absolutely can't afford this -- but then again the cost of medical care due to comorbidities that result from obesity are pretty expensive too.

Some people are resorting to compounded versions of these drugs (which is a terrible idea, IMO) to save money as well.
On the flip side - almost (say, 99.99%) of Human Engineers, Artists, Technicians, Scientists, etc... have mental models trained on copyrighted material.

Nobody (to my knowledge) has ever said that you can't train on copyrighted material - what you aren't allowed to do is copy or directly plagiarize. Something that all the generative systems are going to great pains to remove from their system where possible.

Are they doing a perfect job - nope. But they'll get better, and this is good - copyrights are supposed to prevent replication, not use of their material.
Wait, I thought we were talking about AI. You just described Marvel Studios
that was a pretty cool video / demo / idea. good stuff!
It is historic. Originally there was only lambda. Local variables could be obtained using lambda terms, and immediately calling them with arguments. The variables in a lambda receive the evaluated argument values, and come into existence simultaneously. let was derived from lambda and understood in terms of those fixed arguments, and inherited that semantics.

let* is not easily understood in terms of a single lambda. Given

(let* ((a1 (expr1))
(a2 (expr2 a1)))
body)

It cannot be that (expr1) and (expr2 a1) are argument expressions in a call to a single lambda, whose parameters are a1 and a2.

It can be readily understood as two nested lambdas. And that view makes it appear as if let is the primitive.

That view is not the only possible one; we can also regard let and let* as being an independent lexical binding construct not understood in terms of a lambda reference model. Under that view, the difference between them is very minor. In a compiler, the difference between let and let* can be handled by a few simple conditionals in the compilation strategy.

Be that as it may, let was there first and so the sequential binding let* gets the star. Some people might prefer the sequential construct to be let an the parallel one to be let*, but that's not how it played out.

In Common Lisp, lambda has features not based on original lambda: optional parameters with init expressions, and &aux variables. These behave like let*!

Common Lisp's let* cannot be regarded as expanding into a nested let, because it supports (declare ...), and declarations can apply to all variables. Well, in theory I suppose it's possible to break out a let* with declarations into a nested let, but the procedure for that has to analyze the declarations and separate them by variable, synthesizing new declarations inserted into the let nesting a the appropriate level.
currentTimeMs is Environment.TickCount, which in this case happens to be negative.

It's worth noting that GetTickCount() is documented as returning an unsigned count, and unless you really need to time intervals > ~49 days to millisecond accuracy, everything works as expected with modulo arithmetic.

Windows' AppVerifier has an option that causes GTC to rollover much sooner, specifically to test for such bugs.
I'm 17yr club casual redditor, I just comment without regard to karma or anything like that.

(map 'String #'write-to-string
(append my-list my-other-lisp)))

No need for 'join the list to an empty string to convert it' shenanigans.

> five percent of the federal budget.

It's impressive to compare five percent and some small fraction, but the total budget also expanded a lot since then. While in constant dollars the current NASA budget is indeed smaller than it was then, it is only about half.

At the end of the day, the kinds of things they spend that budget on make sense to me for a research organization, and it makes sense to me that retracing the moonshot steps happen in the private sector.
The post is written by a guy named Ernie that writes a newsletter called Tedium, which I highly recommend.

Today’s newsletter about BuzzFeed, which came out earlier this afternoon, alluded to big news coming out of Vice soon. Didn’t know it was gonna be this big, but in any case he called it.
You should probably go to Atlanta and see how many people this man employs both directly and indirectly.

Those who do not learn from relational databases are doomed to migrate to them.

Have an owners table, a pets table, and an owns table. Right from the start. It's the shape of the data, model it correctly from the beginning. Two people can own one cat. One person can own two cats. Model this relationship in the store.

Are there rare cases where a one-to-n rather than m-to-n relationship obtains? Maybe, but then again, you should assume you're wrong about that and interrogate the subject very carefully before deciding that one-to-one or one-to-n is correct.

The thing is that those cases can be modeled as m-to-n where one or both happen to be 1. Unless some error would arise from not preserving the singleton invariant, don't bake it in.
Welp. There goes another great tech site down the drain …

Those should be applied at a higher layer than the base one, and the vast majority of people should be using custodial services if they have access.

A much smaller fraction should be using open source and audited hardware wallets as well as offline paper wallets.

People will have the option to shoot their foot off with real, direct control, yes. That option or ‘genie’ doesn’t go back in the bottle, not permanently.

It was one the last major settled/invaded geographically ideal area at the end of the expanding Western frontier that filtered pioneers more than anywhere else from all over the rest of the world (pre-airplane). Now, it's a super-organism with extreme concentrations of wealth, talent, academia, and industry where each legs supports the other with people vying to stay part of it without being pushed out by big money from around the world. Maybe I'll be able to afford a house where my grandparents or parents lived but they're in the $2-4M USD range now.

One thing's for sure though, nobody in tech really cares about your race or sexual orientation, they care about your results.

Sure there might be some bias against/for some groups, but everyone knows there's genuses in India and white caucasian flops so they give everyone equal opportunity.

Only exception is for like legal reasons it might be easier to hire some French random low-tier programming over a Russian/Irani genius but that's due to sanctions, but if those same Russian/Irani guys held a western european passport they would gladly just hire them outright.

What permission would be needed? It's READING it.

Are there problems when it reproduces it verbatim? Absolutely, but that's not what the copyright maximalists are talking about. They're saying it's a violation of their right of reproduction when someone simply reads their work.

I remember when people were upset that someone would (gasp!) link to their site without permission. Especially if it was a "deep link".

Expanding copyright in this novel way obviously is going to lead to a whole slew of problems, least among which is going to be ensuring regulatory capture by the largest of the largest simply because only they will have the money to license reading.

It's a shakedown by industries that no longer have a viable business model.
