Thanks.

When I received a message from the bank saying my account was in the red I discovered that AWS had been billing me 1100 / month for 5 months before I even noticed. It was for something I'd set up one night while bored and then forgot about it. They drained my account :( Even had the nerve to say I had to pay for premium support only to get a "lol, pay" response.
Thanks for a thought-provoking response. I was careful not to say one can always succeed in hard times. And I certainly didn’t talk about guarantees. But yes, one can make opportunities happen in the States. Sometimes or even most of the times we fail. I spent $1.4 million of my retirement money trying to beat Craigslist. The wife sure wasn’t thrilled. Nor when I tried to take on Gmail.

I was sure lucky, but I put myself in luck’s way as often as possible. That’s after I got away from home in my teens after years of neglect, beatings, depression, suicidal ideation, and sexual abuse.

Be more empathetic to someone being snide after I made a sincere post trying to offer up some hope in hard times? Fuck that noise.
That makes sense, but is the Netlify subdomain visible from your custom domain? How would they be able to figure it out, other than humans leaking it somehow?
A quick guide to getting your designs reviewed with AI
This strategy may work for a (D)DoS that is targeted to an application layer, but won't work if the attack is designed to exhaust your bandwidth.

Once you're receiving more traffic than you network cards can handle, it does not matter if you'll drop the packets with iptables or not.

I was the target of attacks that caused Hetzner to terminate my contract. I was leasing physical servers there, so I assume the attacks were overwhelming their infrastructure.
I was patronizing in response to someone being patronizing to me.

No regrets at all.
By increasing their trustworthiness on products, Amazon is ranked higher on search engines.
This seems like a lot of brouhaha about nothing. They just recorded the fact that a user opted out of telemetry, they didn't stealthily send telemetry against user wishes.

They removed this call in the meantime [0].

Even better if you pronounce the 4 in ChatGPT4 as “for[t]”.
Not so much a goal, I think OP's meaning is more along these lines:

The best part of these dashboards is when the Big Four consultant creates The Perfect Dashboard, then asks to embed that nested unresponsive iframe mess into a web app. "Why it's so tiny, fonts are unreadable, and it's packed with scrollbars?!"
Can you point me to some sources about Neanderthal animal domestication? That’s very interesting, I’d like to read more on that!

Specifically about clothes and shelters though. To my knowledge we really don’t have finds indicating that they could or would do this.

Regarding group size, I think you’re reading much too much into it. The group size is similar to wolf packs. Wolves are smart too, are great at hunting in groups, have stable social hierarchies, and have been around for a long time.
Fell into that trap before. You recognize that no note taking system is perfect, so you just pick one that doesn’t get in your way. After shuttling between a bunch, I was most productive just using Apple notes for a long time. I use Obsidian now. Feels good and doesn’t lock me in.

> It's anti-meritocratic for someone to invest their money intelligently in the stock market?

I like how you threw in the word "intelligently" like this investments was planned and thought out from the beginning ;)

Thresholds are are not that hard to decide: It is about taxation that takes macro-economic behaviour and targets into account.

We have a political party that wants to reduce capital gains tax in Denmark (currently 27%/42%). However, analysis shows that this would benefit only the wealthiest 2% so the consensus is that this is a bad idea from a macro economic perspective.

The value of money is relative. Your 1 million dollars are worthless if everyone else has 10 million dollars. The second people act upon and realise that, we can start to build good economic systems.
Yep, for me less numb just every further bite of food feels like eating fire.

True, but here, the insistence on using "le" (instead of just "Mistral Chat"), the "Adoptez le Chat" (adopt the cat) wording and if you go further, the little cat head inside the "M" logo makes the pun very obvious.
Some quick back of napkin math says 190TB would cost about $12k in AWS cloudfront costs.
Apache superset has a good SQL support. Toying around with it, and while it has its learning curve - it looks pretty damn decent IMO.
Hetzner doesn't bill incoming or internal traffic [0], only outgoing, so in OP's case he would not have had this problem.

The identity seems to have been shared initially between 2 people. One of them being Craig Wright, the other is the genius Dave Kleinman: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dave_Kleiman

Dave died years ago following depression, before releasing bitcoin he published papers on the topic of Cipher Block Chaining and similar cryptographic tech: https://www.davekleiman.com/

This has already been known for years. There were good reasons to keep his anonimity at the time, especially if you consider that his main customer was the same government where cryptography tech is considered an ammunition. At that time he could face jail for his work, or in the best scenario lose his customers/reputation.

You have to remember that in 2009 and next years, BTC was something only relevant for cybersec researchers and criminals. You would not want to be seen as associated with the latter.

I don't know what your definition of healthy economy is. 90% of startups fail, but people still do it. Is that healthy?

Aside - The numbers are a lot more sane than I thought. I think its close to 50% the number of young people who want to become creators or think that being a creator is a viable choice for a career.
> > the history of the many schisms over nonsense is rather tedious

From the outside it can seem tedious. Certainly some of them are tedious. However, some of these controversies were important philosophically. For example, the fights over whether religious (flat painted) icons were idolatry or not changed the development of European art.

The development and arguments over "correct" Christian theology also had enormous impacts on European thought and philosophy. Personally, I believe the Christian belief of Jesus being "theanthropos" (fully God and man) helped lead to the modern European ideals of human rights and eventual elimination of slavery.

> Yes, I have the impression that it was really more about politics than theology and they would be quick to disagree about anything. Often, misconstruing the opinions of others. (Sound familiar?)

Definitely many of these arguments were political, and probably not much different than the modern culture "wars" in the USA. Many of them were probably petty, but some were profound.
We had exactly the same list of objections to moving from Business Objects. Then, in its infinite wisdom, our holding company signed with Salesforce and we moved to Tableau. Significant work but relational is so mature that swapping the reporting layer is a safe migration for anyone... Good thing because it is probably not the last occurence !

What’s different between an internal dashboard and a customer facing one? I am mostly asking what specifically is missing from Apache Superset as we are seriously looking into it… for internal use
EC2 is so much more expensive than a standard VPS from almost any other provider though. If you're not embedded heavily in other AWS products I don't think it's worth bothering with EC2 - LightSail is way more cost effective and gets you most of the features.
Ask HN: Who is still programming directly on a server?
So after a decade plus of doing it the right way inside companies, I felt the need for a break from all the processes and pipelines involved in shipping code. So now, on personal projects, I dump a github repo on a server, run a Go server and front it with nginx. Then I commit directly on the server. I will say that parts of me want to create a whole framework around doing it the right way, but the hacker in me is really happy to just write and ship code without all the stuff in between.

Anyone else doing this?
I'm assuming they have DDoS protection by default, being a Cloudflare product? Or is the reasoning simply that they allow you to set a bandwidth/usage cap?
Apparently they can by giving it to the right entity at the right time.

What we could do (besides taxing it away) is configure a limit to what they are allowed to do with it.

I also see room for special titles with cosmetic privileges if someone accomplishes to pay the enormous tax.

It will be hard to find the right privileges. Something like a medal or an outfit is obviously doable. An annual fancy dinner for the group doesn't seem over the top. A daily 30 min slot on the TV for them to bid on exclusively, or each their own slot annually. Can grant 3 lectures in any university. It gets slightly dubious if we add special construction permits for locations no one else may build in.

The funniest I could think of, at 10 bl+ we seize all of your money and assets, you are forbidden to participate in the financial system. You get a robe and a cloak and a card with which you can eat any place, stay at any hotel, buy cloths, do shopping, take a taxi and take any flight with a maximum of 3 guests + partner and kids.
I think all is good but if you increase ads amount I think this is take a better position.

weird flex but ok
Millionaires are 7% of the us population (22 million people).

There are less than 1000 billionaires in the US.

Just because these words rhyme doesn’t mean they are remotely similar.
Problem is if you get 10x that traffic, which would already be 500€ in Hetzner, right? Of course its much cheaper and it's very unlikely that you'd get a huge bill but with them, but after all, it would be great if you could just say "Shut my machine down when my monthly spending gets to 100€"
The US political system is another discussion.

Again, as an EU citizen, the two party system seems to be wildly un-democratic. In Denmark we have 10 parties represented in the parliament (in a country of 5.5million people). This forces decision making to be compromise seeking and represent more real opinions.
Right. I think it's fair to ask whether a reasonable, non-technical person would even know that ChatGPT will hallucinate answers. That is widely known in the tech world (and even still you have people relying on it for work, which blows my mind), but it takes time for that knowledge to get out to the general public. That goes double when vendors are putting out advertising which misleads people (as you pointed out).
It's been down for me since morning. Can't get it to respond. Le chat is Le down?
A pretty intelligent one
> capnproto is a fantastic project, but considering google is built on top of grpc/protobufs, they will be around for effectively ever

When choosing an RPC interface, we went with gRPC because of maturity and familiarity, not lifetime support specifically.

Building RPC on Cap'n Proto is a bit more barebones: https://capnproto.org/rpc.html

But the library support is getting there (converts a description into code at build): https://crates.io/crates/capnp-rpc

I look forward to trying out Cap'n Proto for RPC.

But I also look forward to try Selium as a message system: https://selium.com/

Maybe in combination.
https://coolify.io/ might be worth a look
No, it’s really bandwidth. Big GPUs have on the order of 800 GB/s memory bandwidth and big CPUs only 80 GB/s! Except for Apple. They really need to up the bandwidth.

GPU performance is proportional to both bandwidth and compute.

I think I can tell you the answer: you have a very slow system test that spins up a whole real database, sets up all the tables and stored procedures, and fires a load of requests through the system and inspects the responses and the final state of the system.

That works; it's just maybe thousands of times slower than unit tests, and much more work to create and maintain.

Why "still"? Have you intentionally decided to move away from GA? If so, why?
Capitalism? Mob-style "protection" would be if Cloudflare were the ones who DDoSed you if you didn't pay.
I am alluding to the fact a lot of the bubble blowers are former crypto hanger ons and orbiters who now want a slice of this pie too. Anytime anyone compares AI to crypto you get the sense that person sees those technologies as similar because it serves a similar purpose for them, which as you said makes no sense if one had a clear mind about it and is thinking about the technical details.

Balancing Optimization While Coding
as a dirty third-worlder, there are far worse ways to spend that kind of money. like someone else posted here, you can earn insane amounts of interest by sitting that money around somewhere. with that, it would have been possible to instead provide scholarship to select students every year for like perpetuity.

but this one relieves the donator from the responsibility and at the end of the day, a very selfless work. i would not judge it any beyond that.
I have never heard of an example in earlier human history when two groups of humans have blended peacefully after their territories became in contact.

I believe that the idea of blending by peaceful interbreeding is just wishful thinking based on modern ethics.

Some Neanderthals have probably blended into modern human tribes, most likely some children or women. Other hybrid humans may be the result of random encounters.

The majority of the Neanderthals have disappeared during a relatively short time span, of a few thousand years. Some of them might have died as a result of direct fights with the expanding modern humans, the others might have been forced to retreat into worse territories that provided less food, so their population has dwindled.

> For APIs, backward compatibility, mostly.

But you can still evolve APIs; breaking changes can occur much less than normal changes. And even then you can version them and run old and new in parallel if you want. I don't see why that would be slow.

I also don't see why making things in a way that's hard to change suddenly makes something amenable to agile.

Depends on your service. 20 second downtime on loading HN? Nobody cares. 20 second downtime on the last play of the Super Bowl - big problems.

For most internet consumers we’re accustomed to poor service so if a page doesn’t load we’ll assume it’s a local problem and try again 20 seconds later, same with buffering, it’s just something that happens occasionally. This is increasing the case for phone calls too. Legacy live tv and radio going silent though is still a major issue, especially on live events.
A customer of ours at ToolJet, specializing in service-based offerings, traditionally used Tableau for their analytics needs. They decided to give us a shot and started moving some of their customers over to ToolJet, taking advantage of our Plotly-based chart component for visualizations. While the initial lift to replicate their Tableau setups in ToolJet is non-trivial, the value proposition is turning out to be significantly more compelling. They're now confidently migrating more customers.

They're aware that our platform might hit some snags with the more complex use cases but most of their customers have similar use cases that are less complex.

If you haven't used PowerBI recently, let me tell you it is better than Tableau. In my previous work, using PowerBI I can easily drag and drop dimensions and it can suggest data visualization in browser. Now I have tableau and I have to open the laggy Tableau Creator, wait for a sync, then build a visualization from scratch. Maybe its poorly implemented at the new place, but I avoid it when I can - its easier and faster to download the raw data and visualized it in Google Sheets even
Yeah there are a bunch of selfhostable things:

Caprover (https://caprover.com/)

Dokku (https://github.com/dokku/dokku)

But people still choose Netlify and Vercel for ease of use I think.

Maybe we need something that's just Netlify. The closest I've seen to the "right" UX is Ness:

Though of course it's a tui so some people will get turned off of that (especially people who are willing to spend).
Can you give an example of dark patterns around iCloud storage?
Very excited for them. Tried it and works quite well. Very evident that each of the foundational model developers need to offer a free chat(till now) interface for RLHF/DPO to improve their models. It's costly for them to run servers, but even higher opportunity cost if they don't do this and offer a free service. Intuitively, I think GPT-4 was very good with various questions because they used the early data from ChatGPT to further finetune/align the model with a good sample of real world queries, the kind only available to them.

As an aside, most of these models are SFTed on GPT 4 generated q&a pairs (if not pretrained on them). When you ask these kind of questions[1], they spill the beans fairly easily and say they are a model of openai. Funnily enough if you ask they are a model trained by Anthropic, it refutes it immediately and ask correctly about being a mistral trained model. Same question about openai, it gives the answer in scr.

PS: First question was to test the reasoning. A quantized model or smaller models answer that as 4 not 5. Mistral answered correctly from a badly given question.
people pay insane amounts of money and yet don't respect their degree to the extent you'd expect. just see how many people take up a course just for the sake of having a degree.
Assuming you believe the lawyer. The fact that ChatGPT hallucinates citations has been very well publicized and this lawyer would need to have been under the proverbial rock to not know this. My money's on their simply not expecting to get caught.

A good number of small hosts offer very cheap bandwidth compared to AWS. With Cloudflare’s economy of scale, their costs should be even lower. You only need a ~100Mbps link to serve 30TB/mo, which would cost them ~$10, maybe less.

As always with GPT it's a hard balancing act. There is probably an instruction to ensure it does not visit urls un-necessarily, otherwise every request out there would trigger a search on bing if only to get more up to date information. Like "what is the capital of France" "Well let me ask Bing, you never know".
Whatever protection they have is clearly overcorrecting in this instance.
I was traveling in Greece and heard a story about the modern Greek independence fighters in the ~1850's. At the time the soldiers were traveling around the various Greek islands to gain support.

According to the story on one small island, the local children asked who the soldiers were. They said "we're Greek, like you!" The children were confused and answered "no, we're Romans!".
The legal peril for using ChatGPT has been well publicized already.
With more data, it seems that the spark in this case started in the retractable awning system while the tenant was on a travel. I assume that the awning tried to retract on strong wind circumstances and maybe got stuck on a loop? Or maybe the wind damaged physically the system and tore off the cables creating a short-circuit.

The flammable cladding did the rest.

That lead me to ruminate about if "your smart home can kill you" has finally happened.
