I don't know why AlbertCory reacted that way to your article, but I loved it. One correction: Pournelle showing off the Osborne to others covering the Voyager encounter with Saturn occurred at Caltech, not at NASA's DC HQ.
No offense/taken, but Codec2 seem to be affected a bit for this problem.

I think you missed the argument. Since it's technically possible to compile an iOS app that uses iOS APIs without using Apple's developer tools, Apple would not have a claim that the developers "used their IP" in that situation. Calling APIs is not an exclusive IP right.
This is such a no brainer. The article states he has official records of 134 vaccinations.

They wont just keep stamping the same card endlessly until it is completely covered. How else is he going to accomplish this absurd undertaking but to have access to a bunch of official vaccination documents?

It's not outside the realm of possibility that he was also selling them, but I feel like Occam and Hanlon both agree that unless there is direct evidence, he's probably not some criminal mastermind getting rich. He's just a random person with either a fetish or something to prove.
Exactly -- if you read the article they were killed by a dam that hadn't been removed yet. So it's like, no, the dam removal did not kill the salmon, the lack of dam removal did.

It's the same reason why headlights are white and taillights are not (unless reversing, in which case the tail becomes the head temporarily, and thus white reversing lights.)
I was wondering how they get hold of content. That is a pretty shady thing to do.
I've seen copy tests within push/email notifications run very smoothly within my company because of internal tooling (in-house experimentation tool tied to Looker with relevant metrics). In-product copy tests however are not that straightforward but they don't take too long. Wonder how you think about integrating new custom metrics that a company cares about? Like the idea of having a repo of experiment learnings in one place.
It's because in many developing countries, phones are their only computers. They don't have a laptop. Therefore, quick messages is the preferred way over writing formal, formatted, long emails.
Interesting if this becomes an AWS "region", because I would have thought that independent power supplies for the different AZs are part of the promise of what an AWS region/AZ is about.

But if the data center(s) are all getting power from one source, that's a SPOF.
Has water demand increased a lot? It doesn't look like it's increased at all to me: https://www.ppic.org/publication/water-use-in-california/ (or .gov PDF if preferred: https://cwc.ca.gov/-/media/CWC-Website/Files/Documents/2019/...). Looks to me like it's down from a peak in the 90s, even as population continued to grow.

I'm not convinced that this is a problem of insufficient storage (reservoir capacity)... do you have a cite (or at least a explanation) for why you believe that? But even if that were the main problem, California is trying to add more of that too: https://bondaccountability.resources.ca.gov/p1.aspx and https://bondaccountability.resources.ca.gov/Program/ProgramD... specifically for storage programs

But this doesn't really fix anything. It's a very expensive band-aid. If there's not enough water in the upstream rivers and there are periods of sustained drought years, you can't just overfill an infinite number of reservoirs and still have enough water to last through subsequent years. Evaporation and other losses will deplete them naturally over time unless we pump enough of it underground or into other closed systems. And dams/reservoirs do have huge environment and community impacts that we really shouldn't just hand-wave away for the sake of the farm and meat lobbies.

This is the sort of really difficult problem that (IMHO) the federal government should step in to tackle at the national level, possibly via a Constitutional amendment. The clouds and rivers don't care about our state borders, and our really antiquated water rights frankly need to be eminent domained away from private interests and state-level fights and managed at a national level... but there is no easy way to get there from here, nor an easy way to avoid that fight =/ It's probably as difficult a political fight, or perhaps even more so, than peace in the Middle East... there's nobody we can bomb.

Building more dams is, as far as I can tell, neither necessary nor sufficient for resolving California's continued water crises. But I'm not an expert. My undergrad was in environmental science, where we lightly studied these topics, but not to any great depth. Offhandedly, it seems to me "more dams will solve California's countless water crises" is a rather extraordinary claim that requires some evidence. I'd be happy to be proven wrong, though, if you have any additional details to share?
I think a good mix of physical buttons and touch inputs is best.
Again with the sloppy language. Claude 3 responses are different depending on context of questioning and can be seen to reflect a distinction between use for purpose and test use? Well thats a damn fine LL. Well done. Is it inferring or suspecting? No.

It's not "suspecting" anything except in the ridiculous, sloppy use of language, analogy ridden way AI proponents like to state things.

"suspect" had a very good english language meaning tied to intelligence and thinking. Polluting the meaning by applying it to a complex software system strongly implies belief the software IS thinking. It's not scientifically observationally neutral language.

If I was in peer review in this field, I'd fail any paper which wrote this kind of thing.

Claude 3 Opus can be used by people to distinguish use between test/benchmarking, and intentional use. Naieve use of Claude 3 for benchmarking may be led astray because the LLM appears to behave differently in each case. This is interesting. It's not a sign of emergent intelligence, its refinement of meaning in the NLP of the questions and their context.
Just to clarify a bit of confusion here ... Covid infections do not expose you to additional mRNA.

The mRNA is an instruction sequence used to trick a small number of your cells into producing small virus parts for a short amount of time. For example "produce a covid spike protein." It's harmless to the cells to produce a few useless proteins like this, and the resulting proteins train your immune system to recognize covid.

That'd be super unethical and they point out it passed their IRB so that's unlikely to have been the case. I believe their system is like the US where the docs/pharmacies are reimbursed for each dose given so the prosecutors likely were doing basic fraud detection and saw that 100+ doses were associated with the same person which lead them to investigate -- it's probably not illegal to get hundreds of vaccinations hence the lack of charges and it just so happened to have provided an interesting data point for researchers.
This is really cool. Does anybody know one that do the same for Python?
> Please read what I wrote more carefully.

I read what you wrote and I came to the same conclusion as GP. What's wrong with simply saying "BSD/MIT has a different ideology to the GPL"?

Is that what you mean to say? If it is, why say this (which means something else):

> BSD/MIT is essentially reverting to the natural conditions that would obtain without statutory copyright. GPL on the other hand is actively attempting to motivate sharing and respect for user freedom in a way that is far beyond the natural state of affairs. Thus it's fairly described as ideological in a way that the former licenses are not.

I think you're still trying to portray one more positively than the other; you're writing a lot of words to claim "I'm not really saying that" while actually saying that.
> Pretty much every car since the late 80s has electronic throttle control and there are no mechanical linkages from pedal to throttle body

Electronic throttles became widespread much later than the 80s. Pop the hood of common 2000s economy cars and you’ll find a mechanical throttle linkage.
New England tends to have startup companies that are either biotechs or hard techs. It's not surprising to have to take bad terms for those companies.
That only happens in cases where the disease rapidly evolves. Which is the case for COVID, though not to the same degree as the flu, which has its genome split into 8 distinct RNA's which mutate and also get shuffled up when multiple viruses infect the same cell.
Well I see what you mean. Steer by wire is part of drive by wire if you want to be specific. But before that was a thing “drive by wire” meant a throttle body controller by the ECU.m for many years. So if you go to a shop and say DBW what the other end hears is “stepper throttle”
One day, google people will discover std::vector::at(). But it is not this day apparently
You're right, I did mistakenly mix a few concepts together. The series representation for the function is infinite, like you say. What I was misapplying was the idea that a convergent infinite sum of matrix products (c0I + c1A + ... + cnA^n + ...) can be written as finite polynomial, which relies on Cayley-Hamilton like you say. So f(A) for any particular choice of A, can be written as a finite polynomial, but the coefficients of that polynomial will change as A does.

So writing

exp(A) = I + A + A^2/2 + ... + A^n/n!

like I did isn't correct. The concept I was thinking of was a Taylor series like this

exp(A) = I + A + A^2/2 + ... + A^n/n! + ... (to infinity)

has an equivalent finite polynomial like:

exp(A) = c0I + c1A + ... +c_{n-1}*A^(n-1)

(usually expressed as order n-1, not n like I was said earlier). The c0, c1, ... c_{n-1} will depend on A, so not as generally useful as what I was misremembering. It does let you build representations for things like exp(tA) (where t is a scalar multiple) in terms of a finite polynomial (the terms depending on t, like the "exp(lambda*t)" in your diagonal matrix example, end up in the c0, c1, ..., c_{n-1} coefficients).

Thanks for the correction and sorry if my garbled attempt at explaining confused anyone. The point about matrix functions being based on series representations is independent of those mistakes.

Yep, it raises the bar for being barred from office due to the 14th incredibly high. Even if Trump is convicted in a federal court of participating in insurrection, Congress would need to pass legislation to keep him off the ballot. Good luck with that.

Do economists hate Freakonomics? I know some who liked it. I think the objection is not to popular content but to misleading popular content.
Sorry - “this” being the concept not the literal codebase.
Same, and for me that's an extremely negative association.
Did it work financially for him? He has quite a few books out, and they're OK, but they're not best-sellers. I've read more than half of them. His first book, "Agent to the Stars", may have been his best work. In that genre, "First Contract" (Greg Costikyan, 2001) is better.
I mean, every dollar you spend is a dollar off your balance sheet, so a company with $1 million more in cash is theoretically worth $1 million more. That is what "offsets" the liquidation preference.
> Would it be accurate to say that the variable values are fresh per iteration as of 1.22 and fresh only per initialization prior?

Yes, if the loop variables are declared in the init-statement of a loop (using := ).
FWIW I have started both in Silicon Valley and never had to take unfavorable terms like that.
You are part of the problem then.
Follow-up:

I've continued to test. Definitely wouldn't call it a step function, but love that it's genuinely competitive with GPT4, and often beating it.

I am starting to see some cracks-

It's struggling with more hardcore / low-level programming tasks, but dealing well with complexity / nested abstraction with proper prompting.

It sounds much less AI-y when it talks, like better variation / cadence which I think was what sold me so hard at first.
Machine Learning is a subset of AI
It's hard to make that performant.

> Installing multiple versions of Python? You have got to be kidding.

Why? There's some overhead because it's not like everything has changed between versions, but otherwise it's a very clean way to provide exactly what you need without having to maintain backwards compatibility in future development.

Mind, as long the the Python code you're running _isn't_ using removed or significantly changed function, you can absolutely run code written for Python 3.6 with the 3.8 interpreter, and so on. If I recall correctly, this is _why_ it's uncommon to specify maximum versions in Python packages: unless it is specifically incompatible with a change in a newer version it should generally be assumed to work, and pinning a maximum version would just cause it to fail for no reason.

In your Issue with mod-ui, they specifically say

> mod-ui is not compatible with python3.11, so this wont work.

but your second attempt is still using 3.11 based on your output. It's a shame this isn't better documented since it seems to be known, but that seems like an issue with the project, not Python?
It does when you have very fast solid state storage beneath it. Most computers make use of swap. If the performance gap between swap and ram is small, you will feel like you have more ram than you actually do.
There's fundamentally a trade-off: https://arxiv.org/abs/2209.04881 . (Unless the Strong Exponential Time Hypothesis is false, but that's pretty unlikely, like P being equal to NP).
It is perfectly possible to have dual-channel 12+12GB configurations and also unbalanced 8+24GB configurations, so your test is not really accurate.
this rings so painfully true for me. Except it was in 2008
Really loved the article. Have been in computing for along time and never heard this story in such detail. Looking forward to the upcoming articles you mention....
Except for radios. It's very annoying that every radio had a different UX, likely in the name of innovation and differentiation. I think that's a safety issue for e.g. rental cars.

I took an artificial neutral network class at the university back in 2009. On the exam we were asked to design a (hardware) system to solve a certain complex problem, then present it to the professor. The professor was actually a biologist specialised in neurology who had veered off into ANN without understanding electronics nor programming.

I recognised that the problem, while being beyond what an ANN could do at the time, could be split into two parts each of which was a classic ANN task. For communication between the two I described a very simple electronic circuit - just a few logic gates.

When presenting the design, the professor questioned why this component was not also a neutral network. Thinking it was a trick question, I happily answered that solving it that way would be stupid since this component was so simple and building and training another network to approximate such a simple logical function is just a waste of time and money. He got really upset, saying that is how he would have done it. He ended up giving me a lower score than expected saying I technically had everything right but he didn't like my attitude.
Gave this a shot on my Home server that's running a bunch of docker containers. It certainly feels like it's improved performance over the network. Next step is to run a bunch of benchmarks.
I tested this out with some coding tasks and it appears to be outperforming GPT-4 in its ability to deal with complex programs.
I’ve only started companies in Silicon Valley (not even in SF once it started to get tech too) but have been on board in NY, Cambridge MA, and Europe.

As a broad generalization: investors in Northern California are more afraid of missing out on the upside than losing some in the downside. The further east you go the more risk averse they get, until by the time you get to Europe the terms tend to be quite abusive because the investors are so worried about losing their money.

My son was diagnosed in 2022 with T1D, I wrote this post about it mostly out of determination to understand how to manage https://maori.geek.nz/the-unreasonable-math-of-type-1-diabet...

He is now on Dexcom+Omnipod+AAPS and doing well.

Being familiar with PagerDuty and Datadog/ELK stack, all I want is a similar set of services that can scale (cheaply) to manage all people with T1D. Nightscout is a start but won't scale.

Awesome work and best of luck, T1D is shite.
It boggles my mind. It really does. I refuse to buy a car that uses red turn signals.
Sorry for the confusion, I meant that because the measure was from where the disk stopped (instead of where it lands), people were bowling the disks along the ground so they 'rolled' on their corners. Think ten-pin bowling instead of discus.
Ask HN: Why are there no open source projects that focus on making you money?
Like ghost once added payment gateways after I had request it (and a dozen others). I feel like for open source projects to really get my attention they need to offer a way for me to generate income from it.

I'm starting to see some paid boilerplates for popular web stacks that include stripe integrations, crypto currency, etc. and things like that, but they charge upwards of $200 for access to their private repos.

If apps focused on making both hosting providers and users money would we really need bigtech subsidies?

I like how nostr is doing it and stacker.news gives 50% of revenue for a terrority to the territory's owner.
Have you analyzed the data from your cpap to see if it's doing what it needs to do?
It has the data for your apnea events, sleep time, all kinds of interesting things.

Check for leaks.
Make sure your mask is actually comfortable, I'd recommend trying multiple if you haven't already.
LOL @ the idea that the investors are the ones who take on the largest risks. Investors barely deserve 1x, never mind anything higher.

Paguroidea: Fused Parser Generator with Transparent Semantic Actions
Parser generators have long been a savior for programmers, liberating them from the daunting task of crafting correct and maintainable parsers. Yet, this much-needed simplicity often comes at the expense of efficiency.
We present, Paguroidea, a parser generator that harnesses the power of lexer-parser fusion techniques to create parsers that boast user-friendly grammar definitions while delivering performance that rivals specialized parsers. Building upon the foundations of the flap parser, our work introduces a series of extensions.
One of our key contributions is a novel approach to the normalization method. By encoding reduction actions directly into the Deterministic Greibach Normal Form (DGNF), we provide parser generators with flexibility in manipulating semantic actions. This unique approach empowers developers with the freedom to customize their parser generators to their specific needs while maintaining semantic correctness.
Furthermore, we formulate the execution of the parser in substructural logic, providing an elegant way to prove the correctness of the amended normalization procedure. In this exposition, we offer a glimpse into efficacious, user-friendly, and correctness-provable parser generation.

If you like Bitches Brew, I would advise checking out "Miles Davis at Fillmore: Live at the Fillmore East" [1] (ideally the 1997 reissue rather than the original which was pretty heavily edited). It's like if someone took Bitches Brew and wanted to make it even more intense and hostile. Genuinely terrifying, amazing music.
