One might have said the same thing about the millenials since the 00's and the 10's were known for being "culturally poor" in comparison to previous decades.

I think there is a huge economic and demographic phenomenon driving these trends. Young people today have less money and less economic perspective than the young people from previous generations in the same age bracket and this reflects in the art and everything else. The continuous deceleration of the econonomic growth in the last five decades together with unprecedent inequality brought the world to the sad times we're living in.

In the past also your parents were expected to die at 60 and something and pass their wealth to their children. The boomer generation broke this trend with force, they are living much more and don't seem slightly interested in ceasing any kind of power to the younger generations.
David Basin and his team have done really cool work in the past. I was lucky enough to see a talk by him about EMV Race, which are exploits in the EMV protocol used by credit cards. Their approach included modeling this protocol in Tamarin. Its website [0] shows demonstrative videos.

So Pijul is patch-based. And not in the boring implementation-sense of storing changes as a series of patches. In the interesting sense that patches can be ordered in more arbitrary ways. On the other hand Git is snapshot-based. And Git was built for the Linux Kernel (specifically from the perspective of the lead maintainer). But my impression from the outside is that the Linux Kernel development is very “patch-based”. First of all in the sense of sending patches via email. But also in the sense that these patches can be applied to multiple trees (not just the Linus tree) and different subsystems have to cherry-pick commits (i.e. picking a commit and applying it as a patch, creating a new commit somewhere else). And it seems that people are concerned about tracking what patches are where, what commit (which can correspond to many commits according to cherry-picks) fixes whatever commit. The people behind Patchwork (a tool for maintainers which tracks patch series) is concerned about being able to track patches; the usual `git patch-id`, naming heuristics, etc. does not seem good enough.

And as patches go through different contributors and maintainers they accumulate trailers in the form of signed-off-by and things like that. Even non-trailer (not key-value line) changelogs like: `[<initials>: fixed typo/ fixed off by one]`. And if the change is in the code then the patch content changes (not just the commit message).

The Git project is also pretty patch-based in its development. Even for those who only cares about the maintainer tree: these patches apply to this other in-flight patch series; this diff here can be applied on top of your pending patch series; this patch series is from our ongoing work at Gitlab (company); I’m resending this patch series that X did three months ago but seemed to have abandoned; etc.
The utter bullshit of these licenses has got to stop. Do not, under any circumstances, consider using these commercially.

"Google reserves the right to restrict (remotely or otherwise) usage of any of the Gemma Services that Google reasonably believes are in violation of this Agreement."

This is a kill switch that Google maintains in perpetuity over any system you build relying on these models. Our legal review of the Llama license came to the same conclusion, we cannot rely on the goodwill of Meta for any core service, and we shouldn't rely on the same from Google.

Now, perhaps less materially important, but just as infuriating is the "Prohibited Use[s]". These cover just enough to placate the most sensitive, but omit any real harms (waging war, developing weapons) that coincidentally have massive commercial value. Use the model to build a biological weapon (as an authorized govt official)? Cool. Use it to play a prank that deceives someone? Policy violation.

And of course, as the coup de grâce, they throw in a DMCA style provision to make sure you can't modify the models in any way that could cause them to violate their kid-glove precepts.
My friend group and I have been playing with LLMs: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39208451.
We tend to hang out in multi-user voice chat sometimes, and I've speculated
that it would be interesting to hook an LLM to ASR and TTS and bring
it into our voice chat. Yeah, naive, and to be honest, I'm not even sure
where to start. Have you tried bringing your conversational LLM into
a multi-person conversation?
I haven't. I'm in the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" camp for TVs. But you've also piqued my interest. I'm curious how much of an improvment it offers, and what features it may or may not have removed.
I thought the fix was trivial - all I need to do is go to settings > my face >> icloud >>> show all >>>> messages and make sure the toggle is off?

doesn't that stop iCloud syncing, at least on my end?
I understand I can't control what happens on the other end of the conversation but that is all I need to do on my end, right?
Europe expects you to. Otherwise you will be fined 15,000,000 euros. Thank you cyber resilience act.
Thanks for the great feedback! Absolutely, with a fine-tuned LLM or a better prompt, we can make the responses more reasonable. We'll make a note to update our demo prompt accordingly!
I whole heartedly agree.
Developing LangChain Agents with MinIO SDK for LLM Tool-Use
Show HN: My journey in ‘Developing Langchain Agents with the MinIO SDK for LLM Tool-Use’ - A deep dive into combining Langchain and MinIO for smarter AI applications. I’ve shared everything from setup tips to enhancing agents with contextual understanding. Excited to hear your thoughts and feedback!
This is also how actual architects feel about requirements given by their clients.
i appreciate you sharing all that, but it seems like we might be on similar levels of knowledge/experience. i've been a dev who does a lot data engineering for 5 years. i'm looking more for best practices and theory about designing the pipeline, how to arrange the order of operations, how to separate each step, logging practices, how to make it reproducible, how to restart when it fails halfway in without going back to the beginning, how many retries, what to do if a step gets stuck in failed state, how to flag that bad data, etc. so. many. questions. while i build these pipelines.

i have figured out these questions by seeing how more experienced devs do it and on my own, but i want to learn from a book or video series because you can only figure out so much yourself, eventually you need to seek out experts and sometimes the experts around you also figured it out themselves and you need to find an expert outside of your circle. unfortunately a lot of the "ETL experts" teaching stuff online are trying to sell me on prefect or airflow or snowflake etc
Sorry if this sounds stupid, but can't they use robots for that kind of environment? Or if we aren't advanced enough for that yet
I wasn't even aware that this came from Persian! Thanks for educating me.
Correct. I was referring to the OP asking if Apple would ever fix E2EE not protecting, by default, Photos and Messages and so forth.
i love love love remix, am so glad i chose it a couple of years ago and now use it for everything

that said, i wonder if anyone has advice on a couple of things

1. typesafe routing and fetching, e.g. using useFetcher then fetcher.submit({title: 'hi'}, {action: '/blog'}). i would love both the {title: 'hi'} and the 'blog' to be typesafe (as safe as you can get in typescript)

2. i still haven't got onboard with using uncontrolled inputs, so i end up using react hook form again. i feel like eventually i need to "watch" one of the inputs, and the main thing again is the typesafety. with react hook form, i can declare my form with zod and be sure it's exactly what i'm then submitting to the server, and revalidate it there. any good ideas here? i would love to get the progressive enhancement from not using js

Good find! That's a slightly older version that I'm moving. Here's a better version, complete with instructions on how to embed it in your own site

https://github.com/genmon/interconnected-cursor-party

It's a fork of the upstream PartyKit versions (I've added shared text highlights)

https://github.com/partykit/cursor-party

PartyKit is genuinely the best way to build real-time super scalable apps in very little code, multiplayer included. I have a contract here rn but I was a fan and user first. It's my go-to for most projects now:

> Open models feature free access to the model weights, but terms of use, redistribution, and variant ownership vary according to a model’s specific terms of use, which may not be based on an open-source license.

does a model being "open" say anything about how it was trained?
A common case for git branches is long-life versions. For example, one git branch can be for version 1.0 and one git branch can be for version 2.0. This can be good for major upgrades, as well as for site-specific installations, as well as for regulated industries that need to audit specific versions.
Ah great, I'll simply caucus with That Other Party and lose my personal rights as a queer atheist. They'll also deport all my coworkers. Why didn't I think of that? Love it.
It's not weird. It's a tax haven for the elites. And cheap duty-free ski resort for the wealthy. Do you think Andorra, Monaco, Leichtenstein, ... (even Luxembourg) ... would continue to exist in W. Europe if that were not the case?
The technical report (linked in the 2nd paragraph of the blog post) mentions it, and compares against it:

Remix is _just_ a really nice request handler. That means you can bring your own server (instead of getting locked into some specific implementation). There's a lot of benefit to the Remix team's "Use the platform" mantra. This means that you don't always have to go looking for "the Remix way to...." on Google. This was a major frustration with NextJS. "How do I run a function when the server boots up in NextJS?"
This story is about Canada, though…

Around 15 years ago in college, a friend who was doing an architecture degree was complaining that LEED certification was making people ignore a lot of that kind of thing. That the certification was the most important thing to go for, above just about everything else.
That's pretty defeatest. I do my best to avoid the spying.
> For the first time, society forced onto an enormous number of its citizens the requirement to manage something they had never had to manage before -- free time.

Medieval (and earlier!) peasants also had ample free time, much more in fact than we have today once you account for the many months of various holidays and festivities [1]. It was industrial capitalism that completely turned over the equation.

There is a lot of work to make the actual infrastructure and lower level management of lots and lots of GPUs/TPUs open as well - my team focuses on making the infrastructure bit at least a bit more approachable on GKE and Kubernetes.

https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/ai-on-gke/tree/main

and

https://github.com/google/xpk (a bit more focused on HPC, but includes AI)

and

https://github.com/stas00/ml-engineering (not associated with GKE, but describes training with SLURM)

The actual training is still a bit of a small pool of very experienced people, but it's getting better. And every day serving models gets that much faster - you can often simply draft on Triton and TensorRT-LLM or vLLM and see significant wins month to month.
How evil of you
Gas giants hold onto their gases, not because they're cold, but because they're massive. I doubt you could get a planet to form with liquid or solid helium on the surface. Building a planet generates a great deal of heat and pressure.

And we'd know if there was another gas giant in the kuiper belt. I couldn't find estimates on how much mass is in the oort cloud, but probably not enough to form a orbit with enough mass to make a gas giant.

Edit: Just found the wikipedia section on the mass of the oort cloud. Roughly estimated at 5 earth masses. Neptune, which isn't quite massive enough to be a gaseous planet, is 17 earth masses. Saturn, our smaller gas giant is 95 earth masses
Car ownership is way too cheap and accessible in North America for the amount of damage they cause.
I'd personally consider using Typst (https://typst.app) instead of LaTeX. It has a much more readable syntax and you don't need as much snippets to write it.

You can use in on their website or run the compiler locally just like LaTeX
That’s about the point of having a developer ecosystem, isn’t it?
FWIW my parents bought me a washer and a dryer for college for $100 a piece in the 1990s. I replaced them 25 years later because the washer was starting to walk. The dryer was fine. I could have easily fixed the washer. That should be the standard.

> The chance of a 50-year old (and I say that as someone not too far off that) being correct about youth (non-?)subcultures is so low, I really wonder why people bother.

The chance that any random 50 yo will get it is moderately low, but the chance that there are some who do is quite high. The latter are involved in marketing to these collectively high-spending groups, and have been since the 50s.

Then there’s a cohort who claim to get it (or loudly claim not to get it) who maybe do, maybe don’t, though it doesn’t matter: what they do is talk to their contemporaries.

Also if you live with teens there’s a pretty good chance you do actually know quite a bit about them culture. Some teens are closer to their parents than others, even within a single family.
A mechanism available to any language that feels like shipping clang.

It is also how Swift gets its C and Objective-C interop, and will have its C++ interop as well.

Or how the Java Panama project extracts header file information for native interop.
It’s a great idea. We have a use case that they want to add voice agent into the zoom. Could schedule a call to talk about tech design
10 years ago this was a greenfield project that was just getting the first release. Today it is a legacy project that is bringing in a ton of $$$.
that is exactly it! when you spend time on the web, there is zero way to know that the site you're on is being mobbed right now. it's so socially impoverished

I know that multiplayer cursors aren't the best way to show that, but it's a start!
Are you referring to things like the boolean "NO" string (i.e. the "Norway Problem") or another issue?

but then you'd need a tow truck.. Doesn't seem a lot simpler, anyone could snap a pic of your registration plate. I think towing a vehicle does attract a fair amount of attention, especially if there is no obvious reason for it.

Also, they don't need to steal the car - if they can freely open it can can just steal anything inside.
whoa, lots of negative reactions to a pretty mundane comment I made about the science of it all. It's overwhelmingly likely, from other studies, that brains differ, sure. But, the AI derived signal mentioned in this study might not be picking up on that? In fact, it's hard to conclude as such from the experiment run simply because it was run on adults. Run it on infants to control for that confounding factor.
I'd really like to talk to you in private if you don't mind - I've just become interested in mental health recently and I think that I need the advice of someone who is decidedly _not_ a professional. I'd love to hear from you if you don't mind. My Gmail username is the same as my HN username. Thanks!

> > no addons on mobile for more than a decade!

> Huh? What are you talking about?

Oh, right, there was some five addons that were "allowed". How on earth could I have forgotten that for one decade we were allowed five addons! shame on me. All hail the benevolent mozilla overlords.

> Google never dictated any product decisions.

well, it was the official mozilla excuse (we have to prevent random code. we have to submit which addons will run for review on the store. etc). So it was either google dictating product decision or mozilla having other reasons and blaming google. One or the other.
Don't know what hard or soft supposed to mean in a hypothetically ambiguous context, but the `j` here is obviously a Voiceless velar fricative (`x` in IPA). Think loch (Scott.), Χάρων (Gr.), joven (Sp.), хлопець (Ukr.)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voiceless_velar_fricative
Absolutely -- this seriously seems like it should have been fixed years ago.

And it's not like you need fancy AI to do it. Just a handful of simple heuristics.
Automation is expensive (a multi-million outlay).

Most fabs are largely automated already, but you still need support staff to repair and QA processes, as well as scientists+engineers to R&D new processes and optimizations.
> Pirates will always find a way

Except it's usually not pirates who find these exploits, rather curious tinkerers that want to unlock the full capabilities of the hardware that they own. The pirates / script kiddies usually come in after the groundwork has already been laid by these true hackers. E.g. the people who hacked the Switch in fact condemn piracy and any discussion of it on within their communities will lead to an immediate ban.

I'm proud to say that I've hacked my Switch, but have never pirated anything on it. An impressive homebrew scene has formed around the console, which has produced gems such as Mission Control, allowing you to seamlessly pair third party controllers. I use it with my PS4 controllers.

Another article update expanding on MIPS history: the PSP article now explains how MIPS revisited its hardware line until becoming a RISC-V vendor.

All completely true. Neuroticism seems to be the most complex one for leaders...
> and don't cite any evidence other than "this might affect spouses of military members who move a lot"

It's in the article itself. Also, confidential sources are supposed to be, well, confidential.

> Our first source cited personal experience of the return-to-office order's impact and told us only two men were affected, compared to 29 women. Our source made calculations about the impact using internal data, and suggested women will bear the brunt of the RTO mandate.

> "Per sample data pulled, this group is disproportionately female," with women whose partners serve in the military perhaps especially impacted as life in uniform often means relocation.

This suggests that the source has access to HR records.

They could also be making all this up, of course, but I wouldn't trust Dell as an entity that respects workers' rights.
I'm starting to be increasingly certain that making a new (sub)language to express and solve your problems is the highest form of programming.

You'd think the ability to define custom syntax would be the most important, but paradoxically lisp makes it a lot easier simply because there is no syntax.
I might be thinking of the couple TVR Tuscan segments they did.

All the articles on british motoring sites make specific reference to reliability problems:

https://www.evo.co.uk/tvr/tuscan/22788/tvr-tuscan-1999-2006-...

"TVRs have always been love-or-hate cars and the lack of safety features such as ABS or traction control will immediately deter some, as will stories of endless breakdowns."

That whole article, lol.
They would have to ban it first.
At this point, banning security tools a violation of the second amendment.

Microsoft suffers breach after breach after acquisition after acquisition. I verbally note them to my wife to remember, "This is not normal." and even she said, "Why do the numbers keep getting worse and worse." and I told her, "The database keeps getting larger and larger ever since they were only slapped on the wrist for not letting me boot straight to firefox since childhood."

If you took away my ability to understand why the world around me is failing, we'd fall into further disrepair than we already are and we're not really allowed to repair anything, now are we?
Wow, that RFSoC board is incredibly cheap - ours cost $12K or so, and we needed special approval too under defence regulations.
More like merges but actually neither… it can reorder patches, even conflicting ones, it’s a completely foreign concept in git.
There are (unfortunately) a lot of git repositories with multiple long-lived branches, often to track what's released in different environments. Unfortunate because it leads to a _ton_ of merge conflicts and uncertainty about what code is live in what env.

One of the most popular of these flows was popularized under the brand "Gitflow". Atlassian has a detailed, and critical, writeup of that here: https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/comparing-workflows/...

Sure pros will always steal cars that way, but you never want to end up with a vehicle that any bored person can steal for the lulz.

Late 90s - Early 2000 Honda/Acura owners went through this. Even though they were very good cars they became undesirable because you could hardly park them anywhere without coming back to missing parts.
