Get away with what though?

You’re the one who’s ascribing maliciousness to their actions. But you don’t have that backed up by anything concrete other than your subjective perception.

From what they’ve written they removed it initially to keep all browsers equal, which is what the DMA implies is necessary.

They now brought it back with only WebKit support.

It’s completely logical that their lawyers worked with the EU to clear this exception.

People here ascribe too much in the way of human emotion to corporations.

If they were really trying to kill PWAs they’d have done it everywhere. If they were really trying to stick it to the DMA, PWAs are such an insignificant feature to do it with.

What are the percentage of people who’d be so inconvenienced that the PWA would open in a browser tab instead of a pseudo browser instance?
domain knowledge gained over decades really is a competitive advantage if your employees commonly have it

I’m not so sure. On the one hand, it seems nearly tautological. Yet, so much of the comp structure and general attitude towards employees in big tech seems to incentivize job hopping every few years. I would prefer not having to do that, but my hand is forced.
It likely depends on what constitutes a valid contract in this jurisdiction. For example, some states recognize a "handshake agreement" as a legally-binding contract, and you can be taken to court for violating that agreement. I'm certain people have been found guilty in a legal context because they replied to a email one way but acted in the opposite manner.

The Articles of Incorporation are going to be the key legal document. Still, the Founding Agreement is important to demonstrate the original intentions and motivations of the parties. That builds the foundation for the case that something definitively caused Altman to steer the company in a different direction. I don't believe it's unfair to say Altman is steering; it seems like the Altman firing was a strategy to draw out the anti-Microsoft board members, who, once identified, were easily removed once Altman was reinstated. If Altman wasn't steering, then there's no reason he would have been rehired after he was fired.

Forget about Java, not even Pascal or C enumerations from 50 years ago!
You should not use these enums with ints++ in security sensitive applications, because they're sensitive to rowhammer attacks.

Use uint64s with minimal bit overlap.

Maybe nice to include in this ultra-advanced enum libray
Am I mistaken, or is that Data Automation role not listed on the site?

I daily-drove an IBM Model M that was a few months older than me, for about a summer. I love it, but it's just so comically oversized for my desk, even while using a deskpad.

Modern custom mech boards, like my current TKL, allow for extra function layers. You can hypothetically set up a 'numpad layer' on '890', 'iop', kl;', actuated by a layer key that can be held with a finger on the left side of the board. Less overall movement of one's fingers and arms, with equal access to the numpad functionality, if one needs it.

If you want a proof of that concept, see the Planck. Hypothetically, this little thing could replace your desired 'Space Cadet' or 'Battlestation' style keyboard with less than 50 buttons: https://olkb.com/collections/planck
okay thanks for that correction, but what did you take of the concept and the recommendation engine ?
FWIW I've had the exact opposite experience with ChatGPT 4. I did have some issues with the code not always being 100%, but I've found it invaluable when I don't know the keywords for what I should be searching for. E.g. if I want to accomplish something fairly complicated in SQL, I'll explain the problem to ChatGPT, and it has always pointed me in the right direction as to what relatively obscure window function or whatever that I should use.
I see you’ve met some of my relatives.
I've lot both spade bits and smaller normal bits. Best is an auger bit and being careful to keep the drill straight.
Enums suck in a bunch of languages including C#. It has binary compatibility issues that need consideration along with some other gotchas and shortcomings.

So much so that much of the dotnet official stuff, ie asp.net, use static classes with string fields instead of enums.

Unfortunately that doesn't play well with libraries that have enum support like entity framework. PITA.

One saving grace is the ability to create extension methods on enums.
Not a great take. The go team made a lot of decisions that weren't mainstream at the time, and nailed them. Fast builds, native binaries, language simplicity, new concurrent primitives, interface model, defer, no build flags, package system.

Yeah it has evolved a bit since, but keeping the language simple is a worthwhile goal, so they didn't make rapid changes. It was intentional and thoughtful. If you want lots of language features, pick another language. I'll take my simple one.

Also: go enums do suck.
Misalignment of the company bottom line (incentives) and employees bottom line (incentives). Company gets money from variable App Store revenue which is directly threatened by PWAs. Employees get money from fixed monthly salary, which is only indirectly threatened by PWAs.

Employees take money and do what is required of them, and otherwise do what they think is awesome. Employees think PWAs are awesome so PWAs happen... until they threaten almighty App Store then it stops.
How can I use it on my mobile? I don’t understand. Should I have Linux or is it for Android as well?
I think this is a different case. The purpose of OpenAI could not have been achieved had it not been converted to a for-profit organization. Profits are necessary since they incentivize the innovation that AI calls for. Non-profits can never achieve these.

Today we all benefit from OpenAI, but its the for-profit Open AI that made it possible. How else would they spend billions on compute and take those large risks, on whose money?
Correct. That's a big part of why it was a joke. (It's also a contributing factor in why I wonder if golang itself is in fact a prank.)
I'm not saying it has any legal implications to have waited so long (maybe it does - I've no idea), but if this is really about ideology then the timing seems very weird.
Very clever, I can imagine a chat app where you see the message how it was typed before seeing the final message sent, could be novel
Go does not model enums as separate types (like e.g. Pascal), they are essentially just integers like C.
Anyone writing a compiles to go, go++ yet? There are generators for better enums, sum types, and more. Bring them all together! I'm only kinda joking.

Im also curious now if the Typescript checker was written in a way that it could be adapted to new languages easily.
Those $20m are literally to keep the lights on (base salary, law firm, prime brokers, data feeds, exchange connectivity).

Nobody in the hedge fund world works for salary.

They work for bonuses. Which for $1bn fund should be another $20m or so (20% profit share of 10% returns), otherwise you suck.

If bonuses aren’t available in non-profits, the base salaries should be much higher.
Notably, the C standard does have an undefined behavior annex, Annex J.2, since C99. It's not mentioned in the post, and this omission in tandem with repeated usage of "C and C++" at various points might suggest otherwise to some people.

Elon was the largest donator in 2015, Microsoft didn't inject any money until the team was set up and their tech proven in 2019 with GPT-2. Four years is huge in tech, and especially in the AI area.

It seems you are really trying to bend reality to leave a hate comment on Elon. Your beef might be justified, but it's hard to call his contribution insignificant.
Corporations aren’t people, my friend
> Generics?

Go does have generics, though.

> Why don't you just use duck typing?

Go doesn't have duck typing. It has structural typing, which is not duck typing. Duck typing is dynamic typing (at runtime), structural typing is static (at compile time).

> Packages?

Go does have packages.

> Why don't you just use vendoring?

In Go it's recommended to use versioned modules, not vendoring.

Its nice to have some more potentially viable competition. Gemini has better OCR capabilities but its computation abilities seem to fall short....so I have it do the work with the OCR and then move the remainder of the work to GPT4 :)
lol for those downvoting, here are the facts:

- HSBC was fined about
$2.5b all in all by US govt in 2010’s (one of largest ever) for laundering $900m for cartels over multiple years. The Sinaloa branch (not NYC, Zurich, Greenwich, London… but Sinaloa) was their highest performing branch for a long stretch

- Why exactly would a German unicorn payment processors’ COO be a longterm agent… GRU’s infiltration of German finance and energy industry for laundering and energy markets access is an open secret.
I wonder if Apple will reverse course on these. They did finally admit defeat on the butterfly keyboard and touch bar, but that took years (and a lawsuit, IIRC, for the former).

They could try to just improve them, but honestly it seems they are so bad that it's unlikely that an improvement will make them sufficiently popular.

In calculating their carbon footprint score from this transition, Apple should account for (1) the waste created by all of the cases that were returned, and (2) the fact that many people who tried these cases (or didn't even try because the reviews are so awful) ended up buying leather cases from third parties. That is, you don't get to claim to have reduced leather usage if people who used to buy leather cases from you now go buy them from other people.
What happens when 1/0 though? Or socket disconnects?
This isn't worthy of a flame war, but we'll just note what you're telegraphing to us here: Namely your view that the basic situation with the current blockade of food and humanitarian supplies into Gaza is a matter of people being deprived of "nice things", as you say.

Either that, or that the people concerned about the blockade (and the bombings, and you know, those awful trenches full of bodies and stuff) are just whiny that they can't have "nice things" -- like a world without blatant genocides happening in the open for all to watch, with the support of major Western governments.
I don’t really see how Olbers’s paradox proves that the Universe is finite, merely that the observable universe is finite. The observable universe is finite because (a) it’s expanding and (b) the speed of light is finite. Both of these can be true in an infinite universe (an infinite universe can still expand everywhere, which can be counterintuitive but it’s true.)

Is the charter legally binding?

Is it unchangeable?

A single quote doesn't tell us much.
Sure temperature is big factor but water is always the enemy of wood, regardless of the treatment. You can slow it down with chemicals but bugs and microorganisms find a way if water is present. Humidity is water. Primers and paint do wonders against it. But the wood has to be dry first. Tar is pretty darn good at keeping out water but also good at trapping it in.

Old growth and just 'old' wood is naturally termite resistant because wood gets harder as it ages and the bugs just don't like to chew on it, they will look elsewhere. You don't see many 60+ year old houses getting new termite infestations unless it was in areas of recent repair (fascia boards, brick moldings). But if it's wet, it's softer to chew. It's always comes down to water.
It is basically Limbo with updated syntax, and AOT instead of a JIT.

The great channels of today will decay if they become popular.

>That would let OpenAI lawyers keep this suit tied up for a very long time.

Why?
Web apps were the first apps that Apple supported on the iPhone, as of 2007. Back then they did not have native apps, that's why they bothered supporting them.

They then realized that they could make much more money with locked-down proprietary apps that they could tax at will through their App Store. Since then Apple has blocked any meaningful evolution of web apps, to prevent them from competing with native apps.

6 years of experience in software (full-stack) intersecting with NLP / ML engineering. Have classical NLP expertise along with generative AI and LLM expertise, including RAG techniques with vector databases and knowledge graphs, RLHF, and optimization (quantization). See my portfolio of projects: https://jddunn.github.io/. GitHub: https://github.com/jddunn. Latest side project with LLMs: https://quire.work. Interested in NLP-oriented roles, applied AI / generative AI roles, or full-stack roles with some crossover of ML.
There's a big difference between those cases. In the USB-C case there was no room for argument. It was either include the new port, or stop selling the iPhone.

In this case, they could just remove entire features and have the public do their lobbying for them.
I get the sense that you just haven't properly considered the problem. you're kind of skirting round the edges and saying things that in isolation are true, but just don't really address the central tenet. the central tenet is that our entire world is completely reliant on the internet, and that a machine processing information thousands of times faster than us unleashed upon it with intent could do colossal damage. it could engineer and literally mail-order a virus, hack a country's military comms, crash the stock market, change records to have people prosecuted as criminals, blackmail, manipulate, develop and manufacture kill-bots, etc etc.

as we are now, we have models already that are intelligent enough to spit out instructions for doing a lot of those things, but they're restricted by their lack of autonomy and their rlhf. they're only going to get smarter, better and better models will be open-sourced, and autonomy, whether with consciousness or not, is not something it would be/has been difficult to develop.

even further, LLMs are very very good at generating coherent text, what happens when the next model is very very good at breaking into encrypted systems? it's not exactly a hard problem to produce training material for.

do you really think it's unlikely that such a model could be developed? do you really think that such a model could not be used to - say - hijack a Russian drone - or lots of them - to bomb some Nato bases? when the Russians say "it wasn't us", do we believe them? we don't for anything else

the most likely AI apocalypse is not even AGI. it's just a human using AI for their own ends. AGI apocalypse is just a separate, very possible danger
I have huge respect for both of these individuals. Sad to see them going at each other. Humanity has immense potential to benefit from their innovation.
Did remote, partially remote, 3, 4 and 5 day weeks before COVID. It was always there. Did you ask? Do you need a union to ask for you?
encryption rant
People sometimes forget that we had 2-3 years before ChatGPT of fairly high-quality LLMs (from Microsoft, Meta, Google), but they would have to take them down after a few weeks of being released because they became too controversial. Galactica is a good example for instance, there was also quite a good Twitter bot AI from Microsoft for a bit (forget the name), it got a bit racist and became infamous.

OpenAI's real achievement was to tame this technology, they were not the first to make good LLMs, but they were the first to fine-tune them with reinforcement learning to make them actually helpful and uncontroversial. ChatGPT was the breakthrough, not GPT-3. There's still work to do in this direction, it's a hard problem.

EDIT: by "success" in this context I am referring more to wide applicability and creating value as an actual product, whatever causes a project not to die in the real-world, I am very aware that from just the technical perspective the meaningful breakthroughs are different.
Do you have examples of people making enormous profits you are thinking of?

If you literally mean people (as in employees, executives, ect), they already are being taxed on income.

Unprofitable businesses always have expenses for labor, materials, ect. The distinction is that the company and owners arent making money, so they dont pay taxes. Those that do make money naturally do pay taxes.

What is the hard part to square?

>But the feds are publishing all of this data and being transparent about it.

So?

If you're happy that the feds are "publishing all of this data and being transparent about it", then you should be happy for what the TFA does too (even if you disagree with their conclusion): they use this published data in a way that they think is more insightful.

Should the feds conclusions and choice of criteria be unchallenged just because they publish their data?

>Nothing about having some arbitrary cap at salaries below 25,000 make this a “truer” metric.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics also has all manner of "arbitrary cutoff points".

The number they use is not meant to be magical constant of the universe, it's just supposed to be a more insightful cutoff to understand the real impact of unemployment.

Besides, the main job of government agencies is to make the government and their managers look good.
Because at a certain point it will be impossible to argue that "Knowledge workers can get as much done in X-1 days as in X days" because it's trivially untrue. The problem is that the brain is a muscle and gets really really tired solving knowledge problems all day because it is optimized to avoid doing that at as much as possible because it is energy intensive and the ancient human who solved everything perfectly rationally died of starvation while the one that relied on imperfect heuristics and belief got to eat.

Solving super hard Sudoku puzzles 40 hours a week will take a toll on your brain that solving super hard Sudoku puzzles 1 hour a week empirically cannot.

>How do we decide which model is the sustainable one?

Through the exact science you say you "don't buy" because you seem to believe companies operating in a flawed market are better at finding ground truth than literal science.
Not to access native push notifications which was the one feature that Apple only just added in 2023.

Sure, Webkit and mobile safari have supported things like service workers for years and years, but we just freaking got notifications and so it felt like they were yanking it back.

But to make push notifications happen, you need a central push server. How do you handle that with a third party browser engine? Where does the browser app request notification access? But then how is that delegated to a separate PWA if you have notifications turned off for the browser specifically? Currently, notifications run through Apple servers on iOS. With third party engine support, that opens a can of worms needed to proxy the requests into an iPhone.
Ok, we've reverted the title above. Submitted title was "First Colecovision BASIC compiler (Z80) now available"
Yup - to summarize and to help translate legalese. Was quite helpful and was able to ask it for precedents of other non-profits -> for-profits. Seems like Mozilla and Blue Cross Blue Shield are interesting cases to understand better where this happened.
Ah, yes it uses an asynchronous barrier trick. Basically it promotes the compiler barrier to a full barrier. It makes sense for throughput if one side is executed significantly more often than the other like in this case. The cost is latency spikes.
It seems like HN posts that use Lever or Greenhouse have a notably worse response rate - I'm wondering if they let the HR-types filter out and ignore a lot of resumes easily. I've taken to mostly ignoring listings that use these due to the black hole behavior of them.
The persons are the core team of OpenAI maybe?
Is there a word that describes a very loosely organized but extremely powerful entity, that is kind of a nation state but also kind of a mafia and also kind of a business? Can it just be summarized as Putin's regime? But then it will function without him, maybe even more effectively. And its only ideology is the hate toward Western values (and love of the Western toys). What you call it?
