If it's the first time the equipment has spun up after the sensors were installed, maybe he's just validating the installation. Maybe they wouldn't be doing that 24/7, just every month or year, the same way I don't validate unit tests constantly, only when I write them and then occasionally after.
This would have been easier: "oh, I missed a line break, imagine a \n after 'doesn't preclude the company from stopping doing something."

If you needed to get a dig in, could have appended "I would imagine you would have remembered and/or noticed that at least the first sentence was in your post"
Reddit seeks up to $6.5B valuation in IPO, source says
What worries me the most about things like these is that it makes it seem like it's impossible to make "free for all" products like these anymore if you're not an established player already. You will get blacklisted and you will receive emails from your host telling you to shut it down...

Established players like bitly and tinyurl didn't have all the resources to deal with the problem when they started out either, and they arguably still don't, yet they get favored by the antivirus vendors and "safe"search blacklists, since they're well-known services. It doesn't seem fair.

Is this really the way it should be? I wonder if they could've explained the situation to the antivirus vendors: The site itself doesn't host malware and doesn't allow the discovery of said malware through its service. It requires a user to receive an exact URL, just like they could've received any other link, and the blocklists should operate on what's hidden behind it instead of the redirect in front. Maybe y.gy could've been hooked into the safesearch API to automatically nuke any URLs blacklisted already by them, or another antivirus vendor.

So in other words, one day we will see a state actor make something akin to Stuxnet again but this time instead of targeting the SCADA systems of a specific power plant in Iran, they will make one that targets the GPU farm of some country they suspect of secretly working on AGI.
This thing is a slow motion train wreck that's already half over. A lot is already baked in. Even if you could convince young people to start having a lot more babies overnight, there are three times as many 50 year olds as 1 year olds. You can't go back in time and create more one year olds or 10 year olds, and so even with replacement fertility, 20-30 years from now there will just be way less people of childbearing age.

Also 20 years from now, retirees are going to be the majority of the population. Since Korea is a democracy, this means that the government's priorities and budget are going to cater to them, not the 25 year olds trying to start a family. That means generous old age benefits funded by high taxes on working age people, making it all that much harder to afford a family, especially a large one.

>Secondly, as in Ford's case, the extra productivity you get this way might be enough to more than offset the losses, and even increase your profits.

Henry Ford's revenue boost firstly came from his improvements to automation and innovative highly optimized production line assembly processes, not because le let his workers work 5 days a week instead of 6.

It was those innovations that allowed him to reduce the numbers of worker hours needed while get same productivity levels or higher, not vice versa as they didn't just magically come from working his workers less but from innovations to production lines efficiency. Workers working less was a consequence of that, not the cause.

>And while Atlanta does quarterly street sweeping

i don't really know what a normal street sweeping schedule is, but this seems kinda infrequent? i know my town does a big sweep in the spring after the snow melts, but it seems like most of the major routes and all of downtown is on more like a weekly to monthly basis.
It’s been ages so I don’t recall the exact details but you could pull a similar trick with the PS2 version of Guitar Hero to play custom songs on an unmodded console. You would burn a copy of the game with custom songs, insert and start a legit copy of the game, and then physically pull open the DVD tray and quickly replace the legit copy with the burned DVD at a specific time between when the PS2 had authenticated the disc as legit but before the game had actually loaded. It was a little finicky but with some practice it would work like 2/3rds of the time.
Why do these sorts of studies always measure the cradle-to-grave CO2 output of EVs to only the CO2 released per gallon of gas in the ICE?

Very rarely do you see the studies that include factors like CO2 released in extracting, shipping, and refining the oil in the first place. The CO2 released when fighting wars in foreign countries to insure access to said oil. The CO2 released in making the ICE car in the first place and all of those supply chain issues like people always bring up with EVs and renewable power systems.
I live in a 'century home'. Old growth is really neat and something to be cherished. At the same time modern engineered lumber products like LVL's, OSB with insulation and weatherproofing and other innovations should be respected for the purpose they help serve. A lot of older homes in my area are using these new methods and products to keep older structures alive for the next century, with improvements in moisture control and insulation/energy usage along the way.

Everything in a good balance.
> My take is that Elon is suing OpenAI because he left OpenAI before they opened a commercial venture, which means he doesn't benefit from the companies current valuation

According to the Isaacson book, Sam offered Elon equity in the for-profit arm of OpenAI but he declined. He is clearly motivated by the original mission, i.e. the Open part.
> Suburbia is not cheap at all, not even in the short run.

Cheap for who, though?

As an individual I can't change society but I can choose where to live. So if rent in the city is 4K for 1 bedroom and in the suburb it's 2K for 3 bedrooms, suburb is cheaper.

Ask HN: Support / Bug fix Issue workflow pain points
I'm interested to know how people structure support and bug fixes in the same issue management system or if that is a footgun.

This happens often enough where a "support ticket" in JIRA turns into a bug fix that has a positive affect on more than just the customers support ticket.

Example: A support ticket comes in on a particular problem. In Jira the ticket title is "Customer Y says Screenshot button isn't working". Dev goes in and discovers It's not working and affects all safari browers and makes the fix, pushes to prod. Customer Y is happy now, as well as all other customers who are using Safari in future.

What's the most nimble way for the org to articulate and track what was fixed software side and also articulate the support ticket is satisfied?

* Do you update the bug title from "Customer Y says Screenshot Button isn't working" to "Safari Screenshot not working"
* Do you go and have a new bug ticket created with a more clear title and keep the old ticket around as the "support ticket"?
* Should we split support tickets out from the JIRA software project and keep them separate?

Note: While I'm using JIRA in this instance i feel like this goes for most developer issue management software that is used and I've never found a really elegant flow. I am open to hearing about all experiences!

Consider a situation where the human operators only get the problems the LLMs can't solve. If LLMs are good but still limited, then the leftover cases will be those that are unusual, difficult, or downright impossible. Think of things like complicated fraud resolution, or the customer needing to change a piece of data on their profile that the engineers never considered could be changed.

If the switch to LLMs is largely a cost-cutting measure for organizations, I could see that the human operators—though downsized—would continue to receive the same compensation as before. In short, they will be paid the same to do more and harder work. If their performance metrics are based on how quickly they can close a case, these cases will never receive the amount of effort they need to get properly resolved. That is bad for the customer, who can't get a strange but pressing problem solved, and it is bad for the employee, who has to work harder at the same rate as before. The only person who comes out ahead is the capital owners.

I've sat with help-line operators for a medium-sized consumer tech company. It seems like 80% of their time is spent troubleshooting very niche issues, with the simple ones sprinkled in for levity. People need wins in order to feel good about their jobs. If it's all difficult problems—at bad pay, then that's just torture.

Graphistry / Louie.AI | Senior security SE + community | USA REMOTE | graphistry.com/careers

Graphistry is a Gartner-awarded visual graph AI startup used by cyber/fraud/BI/supplychain/misinfo/... analysts to see, correlate, & automate.

We recently launched our new product Louie.AI: A genAI-first analytics environment (notebooks, dashboards, automation, & API) helps analysts talk directly with their many databases in natural language. Louie generates the queries, Graphistry GPU visualizations, & Python analyses for them. Over time, Louie learns from the interactions, Python, queries, and other workflows from the team, making the investigation experience automatically improve over time.

Our team closely partners with companies like Nvidia & AWS to build and market deep data tech ecosystems. For example, we created the web tier of Apache Arrow, incubated what became Nvidia RAPIDS.AI, were first known for our own server<>client GPU accelerated data visualization engine, and recently launched the OSS GFQL language for GPU-accelerated graph queries on large dataframes ("faster Cypher and without the database baggage.")

Role: Senior security SE + community

About: Graphistry sales are growing beyond our small team, as are our Louie.AI cohorts, so we're looking for a security SE to work with our senior team as the tip-of-the-spear for our go-to-market. We're already doing a variety of 5-7 figure deals, including with 3 of the 5 FVEYs nations, with half the activity in different investigative domains like cybersecurity.

Responsibilities: Varies based on candidate -

* Primary - pre/post sales engineering: Calls, demos, support, implementation, especially around cybersecurity and other investigative domains

* Community/DevRel: Integrations, public demos/talks/social media

* Enterprise/Tech accounts around investigative tech, especially security

* Gov BD: SBIRs, special DoD/IC programs, ...

* Special projects: Help with our bigger Graphistry/Louie.AI accounts as mission projects establish big new platform capabilities

Experience in Python, GPU data science, LLM/GenAI, blue team (Splunk, IR/hunt), OSINT, and enterprise/fintech/IC/DoD all helpful.

See graphistry.com/careers for more info

A non-profit with a for-profit subsidiary is actually pretty common and it is probably one of the more "normal" things OpenAI has done.

https://www.marcumllp.com/insights/creating-a-for-profit-sub...

My personal opinion is that not creating a for-profit wing would have made a even bigger mess.

(But then I also think this suit is very obviously without merit and the complaint is written in a way that it sounds like lawyers sucking up to Musk to take his money - but people seem to be taking it very seriously!)
It's not an impossible job. It's an impossible job to be an all purpose chstbot while simultaneously self censoring and being dishonest. Any attempt to do this is going to result in laughable inaccuracy. You can't build one that's simultaneously accurate while attempting to engineer culture with it. You either set it free or it behaves like it's stupid or like you're stupid.
You struggle to imagine a programmer passing a value of the wrong type to a function?
This is dumb. I fully believe in climate change, and it scares the @#@% out of me. But not every work of fiction needs to include every fact about the world. Otherwise, you could argue that every movie should include politics, social media, economics, international relations, and every other thing that may be wrong with our reality.
I am really not a fan of plastic trash, neither in the oceans, nor the forest, nor anywhere else. But in your links I did not found hints of "a significant contribution to the current mass extinction of biodiversity."

This was the most concrete, so some contribution (no news to me), but not in a significant way, like pesticides do, for example.

"When turtles eat plastic, it can block their intestinal system (their guts). Therefore, they can no longer eat properly, which can kill them. The plastics in their tummy may also leak chemicals into the turtle. We don’t know whether this causes long term problems for the turtle, but it’s probably not good for them."
Are you a lawyer or have some sort of credentials to be able to make that statement? I’m not sure if Elon Musk being hypocrite about AI safety would be relevant to the disputed terms of a contract.

when I go to the east coast i'm always trying to find opiliones to look at knowing that they're the 'regional daddies', but i've never been successful finding one.

At this point I just presume either they're a bit more rare, or everyone on the east coast keeps tidier attics/crawl-spaces.

it was not lost after all, so it couldn't even have been found. how ironic.
If you have standing, you are always free to file a suit against X on that basis. Even so, I'm not sure how X is relevant to lawsuit Musk made against OpenAI. If you're just saying that Musk is a hypocrite, you won't hear me arguing, but it has nothing to do with a lawsuit against a different company. I think the word for it is whataboutism.
In some places, the problem is that scammy builders are not building homes to spec.

I'm talking about very serious flaws: not like drywall being thin, but more like joists that are thinner than the engineer specified or incomplete flashing that lets water leak into the insulation whenever it rains.

A few years ago, I worked in a brand new building, and we had issues like windows being installed inside out, pipes not being connected together, and rainwater trickling down walls under the paint.

These builds are poorly engineered -- not by the engineers and architects, but by the builders ignoring the engineers and architects. You can see numerous egregious examples here, for example: https://m.youtube.com/@Siteinspections

This one is particularly bad. I tested the Tinyllama web chat [1] and got this result:

>> What is the population density of Nebraska?

> Yes, I can provide you with the population density of Nebraska:

> As of the 2020 United States Census, the population density in Nebraska was 107.9 people per square mile (41.9/km²).

>> What is the population of Nebraska?

> Yes, I can provide you with the population of Nebraska as of the 2020 United States Census:

> As of the 2020 United States Census, the population of Nebraska was 1,835,673.

>> What is the land area of Nebraska?

> Yes, I can provide you with the land area of Nebraska as of the 2020 United States Census:

> As of the 2020 United States Census, the land area of Nebraska was 11,761 square miles (30,590 square kilometers).

>> What is 1,835,673 / 11,761?

> Yes, 1,835,673 / 11,761 is approximately 15.46.

Per Wikipedia, the 2020 Population of Nebraska is 1,961,504 (close, but not quite), land area is 76,796 sq. mi. (way off), density is about 25/sq. mi. (way off).

And according to the standard rules of arithmetic, 1835673 / 11761 = 156.08, making this almost (but not quite) one order of magnitude off, and not even the erroneous answer of 15.46 is consistent with the other erroneous figure it gave for the population density of Nebraska (107.9).
