Horrifying but honestly seen the exact same thing happen every time.

Honestly don't understand parents who would swap the facade of "it shuts them up" when in reality you have kids who you can take to dinner and they'd happily just sit there with a coloring book vs the drama about how much charge they have left on their tablet and constantly having to tell them to put it down to eat.

Dunno starts to feel like a false economy where you're trading off acknowledging them elsewhere for a moment for every other interaction being amplified into drama mostly centered around the tablet, how much charge is on the tablet, when the tablet must be put down etc.
Thanks, we haven't officially launched though!

Pijul is a great project indeed :)
All fine and good, I hope he likes it but €10k is a lot of money to live more or less like a beggar.

With €10k/y you can afford a house+food+bills in most of Europe and in many places it is way cheaper than that.

So... yeah, I find it incredibly stupid.
That is more than likely generated code. Model based development and code generation (by certified toolchains) are the norm in automotive and aerospace.
It's been fascinating watching Radicle evolve over the –what seems to be– last 5 years.

I attended the workshop at Protocol Berg 2023 and think they built something really powerful and novel.

Perhaps the most exciting aspect is that even the collaborative aspect of the protocol is local-first which means you can submit patches and issues without internet and that your team isn't on HN every time GitHub is having problems.
Firstly, I would recommend reading this comment by me https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39592444#39596277

That should provides you some more context about my earlier comment.

By definition of concept (think conceptnet) anything is a concept. Any noun is a concept. Graph theory defines graph as set of two more sets. The set of nodes and set of edges, where each edge itself is set of two nodes (or tuple of two nodes if directionality of the edge also needs to be encoded). A node is anything that you can consider putting into set. And according to set theory, a set is well defined collection of things.

According web ontology language, a "thing" is the root of all things that can exist (see https://www.w3.org/TR/owl-ref/, specifically owl:Thing), except "nothing" maybe.

What all this means is a graph is collection of things, with things pointing to each other sometimes.

Pointers are the underlying data type that makes all other higher level data structures possible, including arrays, matrices, hashmaps, graphs, structs and more.

They said nothing about performance, and if you think it increased without them saying anything about it, then you're being highly optimistic.

Right now I can only assume they made it easier to burn more energy.
VW went so far into left field with their controls on the ID-series, it is embarassing. Good to hear that they correct.
I don't know if you're British since this seems to echo the weird comments at the beginning of the article, dissing trains for apparently no particular reason.

But no, he's likely been sleeping in beds since he's first class in night trains, in 3-bed compartments that generally have showers as far as I know. The lights can obviously be turned off.
There are knobs on the f and j key so you can find the home row without looking. Similarly, physical buttons in a car can be shaped in such a way that they allow for feeling your position.

Sorry, dude. It's impossible. No one can roll a ball on grass for that distance let alone a hard drive. Most professional athletes can't even kick a ball for more than 100m, let alone "well over 200m"
I see. Thanks for clarifying. I'm not sure I've seen any either!
Got to use the keyboard to navigate the menu.
I read the documentation and this stands out to me:

> Radicle repositories, which can be either public or private, can accommodate diverse content including source code, documentation, and arbitrary data sets.

If this is, basically, a peer-to-peer file sharing application, what part of the protocol handles dealing with abuse?

Otherwise, how is this different from the previous generation of file sharing applications (BitTorrent, winny, etc) where people just share arbitrary copyrighted content like movies, songs, software, etc?

I feel like a few bad actors will ruin this?

Can you partition your “personal” network somehow, so you can use it with absolute confidence your not participating in anything illegal?
Semantics that matter, unless we are counting uses of Linux kernel.

Like it or not, there is nothing from GNU/Linux that normies get exposure to when using their beloved Web Apps on ChromeOS.

Maybe we should include JSLinux into that, to bump numbers up.

He mentioned night trains and how it is important to catch one at the end of the day so I imagine he is sleeping in bunk beds at least.
At least you got his age correct.

Lasse travels 600 miles a day throughout Germany aboard Deutsche Bahn trains. He travels first class, sleeps on night trains, has breakfast in DB lounges and takes showers in public swimming pools and leisure centres, all using his unlimited annual railcard.

‘I’ve been living on the train as a digital nomad for a year and a half now,’ Lasse told Business Insider recently.
The camera sensor is a commodity, lenses are limited by physics. UI has basically converged/standardized. The A series is 25% faster than the competition. Apple's marketing is great, but Samsung and Xiaomi are no slouch. Peer pressure alone would assume hordes of brain dead consumers, which is unlikely.

What is the other major differentiation the iPhone has to justify being among 7 of the 10 most sold phones?

Yes, someone still needed to be trained on the original copyright sheet music before they could train someone else. Ultimately the source of that knowledge was a copyright piece of material that was licensed appropriately.

Yes someone may teach another person based on their memory, but even if that person still performs that work they still are legally required to license the work.

Yes, if the only thing they were doing was training, sure. But it’s not. They’re training and then presenting the data and given the way LLMs are trained, there is no guarantee a transformation even takes place.

At the end of the day LLMs should be licensed under the current copyright system. Maybe OpenAI need to donate some money to a few politicians for that to change.
I must disagree. Do you oppose renewable energy? If not then by definition, it is possible to use more energy and not deplete any natural resources. The consumer blaming technique is one fossil fuel companies like to spread and I believe you are inadvertently spreading.

I was just reading an HN post about AWS getting rights to a nuclear powerplant. FAANG companies are getting more and more carbon neutral datacenters. The increasing energy needs of humans can be met with renewable energy. But saying it's people's fault for not conserving energy is giving power companies an excuse to continue using fossil fuels.
Should be. Only Rachel YT show I know for kids.

It’d be nice if it was animated but if it helps the order for the time in the tree should be:

Higher nodes all occur before any of their lower nodes.

Within the same depth, lefter nodes occur before righter nodes.

I mean, that definition doesn't fit with supernodes ("seed" nodes in your design) but that is a nitpick.

I guess im mostly just wondering what are the properties you are trying to accomplish. Like there is talk of publicly seeding repositories that are self-certifying, but also using noise protocol for encryption, so what is the security model? Who are you trying to keep stuff secret from? It is all very confusing what the project actually aims to do.

Mostly all i'm saying is the project could use a paragraph that explains what the concrete goals of the project are. Without buzzwords.
Ask HN: Does your company reflect on bloat vs. essential during AFUERA time?
Limiting access to certain contracts, client information, and related documents to specific individuals at specific times can be achieved by setting specific user rights. Improper access to restricted data and manipulation are risks associated with not having tailored user rights. Through the use of the platform's flexible user permissions, a specialized contract management software solution may help you reduce risk and prevent accessibility problems. Specifying the precise security information for your system will be remarkably simple with the best contract management software. Your organization's contract management system can be kept completely safe and transparent with a variety of level-based security solutions.
From what I can see it just says he sleeps on the 'night trains' which are any trains that operate overnight.

If you restricted yourself to sleepers, there is quite a broad network across Germany, but still not comprehensive (https://assets.static-bahn.de/dam/jcr:5e469db8-ee74-46b0-a27...)
I’m not telling my son about this or he’ll do it.
You're asking me why the real world works like it does. Citizens vote from a handful of candidates that have competing priorities. One of those priorities is going to be supporting the huge companies that support them, even if it's for non-selfish reasons like their own economy.

If we put aside how we wish things were or how they should be, the point I was musing on is that large companies can influence politicians in the US. The EU depends on the US in many ways, with energy and physical security probably being top of that list right now. With those things being true, there must be a point where politicians in the US, seeing the damage being done to some of the biggest companies in their own economy by a group dependent on them, start to apply pressure to back them off. If these politicians wanted their companies regulated like this they would do it themselves presumably.
Somewhat similar to the dark ages with its aristocrats ruling over us.

Creating AGI needs powerful computers, which are costly. Independence from humans, like workers in chip factories, requires bootstrapping[1]. This leads to a scenario where a subset of humans serves their bosses, and bosses serve shareholders until AGI takes over. Those with money hold power, and if we aren't good “slaves” robots might take over. There's a chance of using prison labor, especially with the ease of getting jailed in the US for minor offenses. A cynic might say: why not change laws to make it easier to jail people? Might solve homelessness, and we get free labor that way.
Rising homelessness is likely. The only option for us “plebs” is to learn basic survival skills like making fire, catching fish, and purifying water and possibly fight each other so that those who rule over us be at ease:

“When two people quarrel, a third rejoices.”

We might have a “democracy” on paper, but it is clear to me that the people can influence politics with great leverage, if they have enough wealth at their disposal:

“Despite the seemingly strong empirical support in previous studies for theories of majoritarian democracy, our analyses suggest that majorities of the American public actually have little influence over the policies our government adopts. Americans do enjoy many features central to democratic governance, such as regular elections, freedom of speech and association, and a widespread (if still contested) franchise. But we believe that if policymaking is dominated by powerful business organizations and a small number of affluent Americans, then America’s claims to being a democratic society are seriously threatened.”[2]

Keep in mind though, we cannot predict the future, it might be worse, it might be better, it might be something we cannot even imagine (see Nassim Taleb).
Further, I seem to have pessimistic tendencies (biases), so keep that in mind too.
So, I hope that my pessimism is just futile and does not hold any water (not even a drop).

ELI5: Python library for visualizing and debugging Machine Learning models
Yep. I work on a C++ project that requires up to 32GB of memory to compile. If I could do that on the air, that'd be amazing. I don't think I'd ever want to get the Pro though, it's too bulky for my liking.

IMAP, as horrible as it is on a technical level, does the job just fine.
It's easy to accumulate unnecessary complexities in projects and processes.
Do you have AFUERA time to pause and reflect on what truly matters distinguishing between what's bloat and what's essential?
We are planning an apple watch at first. Can do both of those.
I think you are doing a strawman here. Nobody but you is talking about "mandates", and then you go ridiculing imaginary mandates that nobody is defending.

Case: seat belts. First introduced in 1949, three-point seat belt invented in 1955, Saab made them standard in all their cars in 1958, Volvo in 1959 after being shown studies with fatalities. The first compulsory seat belt law was in 1970 (Victoria, Australia), and only began in the US in the 1980's (with great opposition).

Case: ABS. Patented anti-locks in 1930-ish, the modern ABS in 1971, the system was slowly introduced first in high-end models, soon in every model. The US only mandates ABS in cars since 2012, Europe since 2004 (for new cars). Read: all cars were already being sold with ABS in those dates, except for the cheaper and shittiest ones.

Case: Airbags. I skip the history there, because airbags are still not mandated anywhere. They are subject to some regulations, but you can technically build and sell a car without a single airbag in it.

My conclusion: we should not wait or even hope mandates do anything. In the car market we should do our own research and trust (to a point) car brand safety records and voluntary tests like NCAP, IIHS or NHTSA. If a brand doesn't give a shit about safety unless under a government mandate, don't buy that brand, because they are decades behind safety standards.

Mandates are not the bare minimum in safety, they are well below that. Take for example one of the lowest scores in the current NCAP: Lancia Ypsilon 2015, two stars. Still, they have (not mandated): two front airbags, two side head airbag, belt pretensioner, belt load limiter, belt reminder and ESC. Fear no more, even if we find today that kids in the back raises the death rate in a collision by 20%, we won't see it mandated until 2080 if ever, way after car makers figure out a solution by themselves.

This is awesome. I love trains, the German trains more so. Wish I could go back in time and do this!

Not lifestyle for me, but it is likely not actually that different from possible rents in any bigger cities. So it might work for year or two. And after that, just get a real place.
We will nuke ourselves before resources are fully wasted.
Yes, but also no..

That the instruments readings were contradictory is indisputable, but when the anti-stall alarms are blaring in the cockpit, and the plane is literally falling from the sky for 3.5 minutes, than pulling the stick full back is not the way to go. In fact, pulling the stick back, even when applying full power, never has been, and never will be the way to get out of a stall.

The Thales pitot tubes were clearly faulty. The flight system output was absolutely contradictory. But understanding which instruments and which readings a pilot could potentially rely on in such a situation goes down to fundamental, basic airmanship. And for that, the blame lays solely on Air France and on their pilot training.

Pulling back to avoid overspeed is important, but stalling is certain death. And if the VMO and flutter flight-test videos are anything to go by the plane will definitely let the aircrew know they are getting there.
Unemployed copywriters roam the radioactive wasteland beyond the wall. They survive by eating one another. Inside the wall, the remnant of what was once civilization is in constant sectarian warfare between various cults, whose members believe in different deepfake videos, and with every passing year the truth about reality is buried a little deeper under generated media content.

Nah, I'm center bottom, neither scared nor excited by it.

I actually think its a pretty smart and cheap way to live if you are young and can handle the requirements.
I tried running it locally and connecting to it with Firefox but it just gives me a log in dialog and trying to create an account fails. With Vivaldi creating an account works.

But where is this account created? Ah,just got an email that includes a link to puter.com so this created an account on a remote server. So it's not quite as local as advertised.
I mean, I don't think it's likely to happen. It was the old Yudkowsky/Bostrom line, but I don't know how many people believe it anymore.
It's still not correct. You press the brake to stop. You press the clutch to not stall. They're separate concerns, or maybe more accurately one is only a response to the other - you clutch as you're about to stop because otherwise you'll stall, you don't brake and clutch at the same time because you decide to stop and not stall at the same time.
With the recent breakthrough in ternary weight models it'll be interesting to see how needed this kind of bruteforce power will be.
10k covers all that in "most of Europe"? I'm more than a little skeptical of that claim without some expansion, and also a little curious if what you're saying is true.

I don’t see how that can be true if you want to live alone. Maybe in some of the poorer countries outside the EU.
Cars had it, because an ICE drive train is so cheap that in the price range you are talking about it's almost negligible. All the cost is in nice to have things like extra sensors for every tiny niche use case. Fast forward to BEV and suddenly the drive train eats such a large part of your cost budget that you are hard pressed to cut much of the fat of the ICE era.

Carmakers haven't stopped doing electric variants of ICE models because it's oh so difficult to put batteries where an engine, tank and gearbox used to be (it's not), they switched to dedicated BEV designs to have an opportunity to do a "cost reset" about their approach to all those little nice to have things they introduced in the late ICE era to maximise the price buyers were willing to pay for a given vehicle class. The BEV-specific base architecture certainly helps, but it's as much about the expectations reset. This certainly does not mean that they switch their rain sensor to the Tesla approach, they might actually end up cheaper cost-optimizing what they have and know, but BEV does mean looking at costs in a very different way than in the ICE era.
A nice way of looking at it.

For one, because on that spectrum "AI is not powerful and it is unhelpful for our society" would mean we can ignore it.
is there any plans to support this use case: offering repositories only to a set of nodes? I can imagine people wanting to collaborate in private but not wanting to be on Github.
