And this works great, until some necessary thing isn't supported by the language/library/black-box/datalog implementation you're using.

In reality the original (hillelwayne) article is saying that the "graph" datatype is missing, as a standard type, which is true. Imperative language implementations abstract that away to libraries, which may be graph databases (datalog being one of many), or may be more tightly coupled things like networkx for cases where you need some kind closer knit integration and custom computation.

Like, taking a step back, you're saying that no single representation is a panacea. And the original article is taking the same stance, that no single graph representation or library is a panacea, because so much is computation dependent.
> The unfiltered, no rules, no censorship models just reflect the ugly realities of the world

That would have been lovely.

Instead, it might as well reflect what a few dictators want the world to believe. Because, with no filters, their armies of internet trolls and sock puppets, might get to decide what the "reality" is.

> the rest is censorship

Sometimes. In other cases, it can be attempts to remove astroturfing and manipulation that would give a twisted impression of the real world.

Edit: On the other hand, seems Google, at least for a while, did the total opposite, I mean, assisting one of the dictators, when Gemini refused to reply about Tiananmen Square
In the era of DOM documents (see notion, gitbook) I very often resort to attributed strings to do magic stuff with text parsing and manipulation. It’s such an elegant structure and I don’t understand why is so unknown.

Incredible article btw
But how will you live with yourself when every search for library documentation or a programming language doesn't flood the first page with expertsexchange, w3schools, geeksforgeeks, favtutor, freecodecamp, and a pile of other tissue-thin content covered with popups?

Somewhat relatedly, I hate hate hate clickpads. They are so much slower, unintuitive, and finicky yet every single laptop these days has the useless damn things.

I used to be so efficient with touchpads with tactile left and right mouse buttons. Now my modern laptop is practically useless to me without an external mouse, which significantly reduces its flexibility. I have spent days fiddling with utilities in Linux to alter settings to a state where its barely tolerable if I absolutely must use it.
As per usual, "the cruelty is the point".

You are right: MPLv2 does not enforce contributing upstream. So you turn your manager into a fool (just a little bit).
The MPL is probably one of the best F/OSS licenses: clear, concise, well written...
But this is - hopefully - true for the EUPL as well.
YES! Absolutely. I look back on my 20s and these events where I had a moments of bravery in a sea of mediocrity and regret stand out as the defining moments that had any lasting memories.

Things as simple as talking to a girl on the train and striking up a friendship to saving up some money and quitting my job that I hated and did not want to do to buy a one way ticket to another continent and living out of hostels.

There have been pain points: , a decade later that girl ended up causing me grief when we did not amicably split ties, the trip caused me to encounter scammers on the run from the law that robbed me of some money and almost landed me in French jail by mistake, the switch from a field I got boxed into that I quit to what I wanted to do was painful and took way longer than it should have.

But looking back, i'd suffer through the dark moments all over again because it made me grow. My life looking back thus far was a mostly mundane existence of missed opportunities mixed in with moments of bravery that spiced things up from time to time and for that I am grateful and blessed.
Not everything has to be nuanced. For young folks it might be not so obvious.

Like being contacted outside of working hours or being scolded for taking sick leave.

Nowadays I am experienced and in position in life where any of the mentioned above I would turn away and walk or turn off my phone. But I was also young guy some time ago that would go extra mile to please employer and would feel bad for calling in sick.

Really just want to see the US tech industry leave this rent-seeking region and throw them 40 years into the past. Let the EU develop their own messaging services, mobile OSes, browsers, computing devices, and internet backbones. It'll make both sides happier.

Oculink is basically free: it's a connector exposing PCIe ports that are already exposed by the APU. It should be semi-standard for SFF, because why not?

Compare versus USB4, which is quite expensive. Alas neither Intel nor AMD offer on-package USB4 in their new line-up: both require a rather expensive & serious chip for USB4 (ASM4242 for AMD). It's a great capability but it has a real cost. Where-as Oculink requires so little.

As for desktop vs mobile: this is the same Phoenix chip that AMD just released as the 8700G APU. The HS part here is targeting a smaller 45W power budget than the desktop 65W part, but otherwise similarly capable & loaded out. And the case seems designed for either some mild overclocking with it's 75w ought, which if not used means it will remain nice & quiet at stock. I think there's many many people for whom stock will be more than adequate for their uses, and who wouldn't need a bigger hotter version. And they can just tell the chip to drink more power of they want a desktop equivalent, since the cooling is there.

These chips are also boast much higher efficiency (computer/watt) at lower power levels too, which is another boon for users, another reason to look here.

Bigger hotter more powerful has a lot going for it, and it seems like it's what you want. But don't make the mistake of assuming it's what everyone wants. The NUC form factor is pretty amazing, is really a delight with how flexibly it can fit into your environment. I ran a NUC velcroes to my monitor for 3 years; it'd be impossible or cumbersome even with a svelte mini-itx build. Let's just try not to have such a harsh negative reaction so strongly out of the game, yeah?
It's a real shame that Apple doesn't release the source to a recent version of TextEdit. Given its structure (more or less just a stock objects from the API) it would be super educational for anyone who wants to use NSTextView et al.
I think windows touchpads have also been improved after windows 10. Just a few years ago you could easily recognize windows user using notebook because they always brought a mouse with them, such bad was the touchpad on windows; actually it was way way worse than on linux.

That habit seems to be fading out, so I guess the touchpads have also been improving for windows users recently.
I’m saying the notion that China doesn’t regulate is ridiculous. If it is true that America leads rather than produces, it is precisely because it has embraced regulation to protect workers and groundwater.

>simple linear regression in some cases

You're correct, but "in some cases" is doing a lot of work here.

With the tooling where it's at, how much harder is it to apply xGBoost vs a linear model?
I think in practice that would be a poor defense especially when the burden of proof is on the company to show that they don’t have a discriminatory hiring policy. “Your honor, we ended up hiring mostly men simply because they are more cost effective” sounds like a really quick way to lose a disparate impact lawsuit.

The closest we have to teleportation is airplanes (i.e. shortest travel time). Sleeper trains are more like cryostasis ships. The journey takes forever, but you don't notice.
Small nitpick: I would say that an abstract graph datatype does exist: it's a relation. I think that idea was not really properly explored by the referenced article. And the relational algebra gives us a powerful way of manipulating the abstract relational datatype, which informs efficient concrete representations.
No more MessgePack: An improved data serialization library
Think of this as an improved version of MessagePack, Avro, and Protobufs. (I made this library)

Finding objects via name hash is supported. Storing an objects endianness is supported. Nested objects are Supported.

The encoding is easy to understand, and less common floating point formats such as bfloat16 and posits/quires (Unums) are supported.

This is freestanding and very small. Sorry if the format of the README and examples are annoying to read.

Unlike CBOR, Avro, Bincode, and MessagePack, you can figure out if there's N types of same type/size ahead: https://github.com/loveandkindess/gooseberry/blob/main/goose...

Hmm not sure. Tivoization is about distributing a product together with the source code running on it, but without giving a mean to update the software.

That's the difference between GPLv2 and GPLv3: if you buy an Android smartphone, you are entitled to receive the Linux source code for that smartphone. But maybe there is a secure boot and it is impossible for you to flash an updated version of Linux.

GPLv3 says that not only you should receive the source code, but also instructions about how to flash your own version of the covered software.

It feels like EUPL is closer to GPLv2 in that sense, right? Which is fine, but it's good to know.
I think the point of GP is that the definition is wildly overbroad. What is actually the cause of the unhealthiness? You can't just lump EVERYTHING into ultra-processed or it becomes noise. Liquor and a chocolate bar are clearly not the same level of unhealthy.
Because as the past 20 years have demonstrated, the EU is fundamentally incapable of innovating in consumer technology. At this point all it can do is rent-seek from US tech.
Right: we're talking about different problems here. You're looking at ways to ensure the LLM mostly behaves itself. I'm talking about protection against security vulnerabilities where even a single failure can be catastrophic.

Awesome design! Interesting to see the cars evolve over time and how many models they had in the 50s
With sufficiently advanced technology, travelling between stars will be more of a transfer of your consciousness using interstellar WiFi (remember to set TCP_NODELAY!) rather than transporting slow and heavy atoms. You just get transferred from one biological substrate to another. None of the time dilation, all of the space exploration.
I never liked their velocity diagram. I've had situations where I had great progress when it showed low, and I had situations when bugs and setbacks made the "velocity" measure meaningless. You can even inflate it with lots of "important" little tasks.

Appreciate both the clear feeling and nuanced take here!

It’s interesting, because it’s like the problem is partly that most of the CI offerings out there are at least a little bit gross, but also the vast number of mediocre CI offerings is a factor too.

It feels like it’d be easy to convince yourself that what you’ve built is better than everything that exists already, and hey, maybe it is! But personally I wonder if we really need is a step-change here, not an incremental improvement—something that really does make build and deploy easier, and changes how we all think about it too.
random idea: an event for "x-sync:missing". the server responds with `<ul x-sync id=notification>`, but the page doesn't have a matching id (and the notifications aren't inside a different target....). if the last part is slow to figure out, people could opt into it with "x-sync x-sync-required".
I don't think it's necessarily AWS.

I've got coworkers who are on campus, and can access AWS (and AWS-based sites) fine. Their connection to AWS is via the CENIC ISP, which peers directly to AWS.

So.... this is about a pay-subscription search engine called 'Kagi' out of Palo Alto, founded 2018.

For me it's either a trackpad or a trackball. I find that any pain comes from moving my wrist and the Magic Trackpad is large enough that I move my entire arm and not the wrist.

It's great that we have options, so that people can pick what works for them. It is a little sad that Apple is pretty much the only option for an "external" trackpad though.

> why can't companies just survey from the ground?

From a layman's perspective:

(1) the incentive is not aligned to accurately report leaks [1][2][3][4][5]

(2) Satellites provide global monitoring. This reaches to places/countries/regions that are not regulated, and secondly provides monitoring for natural sources of methane emissions (eg: permafrost). For the latter, even if there is nothing to be done about natural emissions, the more accurate data will provide for better modelling and help humans better understand the Earth's ecosystem.

I’m curious as well, as I missed quite many Gnomes. I used it back in Gnome-2 days, and now it’s 45. I think I accidentally tried it a couple of years back (43, if I’m not wrong) and I like it so much that I use it till this day. Combining with Swaywm on my laptop, but sometimes I think that I like Gnome even more. Which is quite a statement! As I really love Sway and thought that’s the final thing I’ll ever use as a DE.
>You already made a faulty assumption — that we're interested in "classifying the data" in the first place.

It's not clear what your point is. If you're not interested in the predictions that tree-based models provide, do not use tree-based models on your tabular data. A predictive model and a SQL query are not the same thing.

I think the main apprehension people (/devs) have about this, is how the new generation of full time coders will be. Will they blow our socks away, with their AI-enhancements? Or will they never have learned the core concepts, but just jump from issue to issue like a junior for ever?

The water company used them while making the Thames Tideway, and they are the only known monitors of the kind fitted in the country.

_Pretty_ popular?

Outside of Rust, Kagi might have the most fanatic following of any topic on HN. Which, while I'm sure Kagi is very happy with, is really rather annoying as a someone who doesn't care for it. Every conversation search-adjacent is just comments of "I pay for Kagi and it was the best dollars I've ever spent".

Yeah, so I have to flash someone in front of me to turn on my fog lights, great.
And don't forget to turn off automatic lights because it will turn off the fog together with the other lights but not turn them back on.

Notably, Amazon is one of the few companies that has managed to avoid a lot of the DEI noise somehow. Perhaps due to their reputation for having such a brutal work culture already?

> until some necessary thing isn't supported

Taking a third side, I dont think the possibility of a missing algorithm should remove the positives of not assuming a graph format apriori.

What I mean is, it seems that the approach of "use a data representation and implement your algorithm using something like queries" is meant to be an argument for empowering graph library writers to support a wider array of inputs (e.g., all of them) without specifying different implementations for those inputs.

That's cool. Maybe I misunderstood what you said.
I'm going through a similar transition right now. I wouldn't say I've been downleveled but I left FAANG to go to a startup (pay cut) where I've been able to transition pretty fluidly from "Data Science" to "MLOps + some backend SWE + some infra + some actual ML Engineering (non-DL)". Aside from the pay cut (which was not the end of the world, think high 200s to low 200s), it's worked out very well, and I'm getting the experience that I think will allow me to rebrand successfully.

As to whether that rebrand itself is successful, I don't know. It feels like the DS role is undergoing a maturation where different skillsets are being cleaved into different roles. I was always a more natural fit for the Ops side, I don't have the academic creds for a research-oriented position. But I'm not sure how much of ops means "LLM ops".
Pumps still require a fair amount of planning, experience, and knowledge about one's T1D in order to use effectively. The pump can only be reactive: sugar spikes, emit insulin. Sugar tanks, sound an alarm. You're supposed to tell it in advance how much sugar you're about to consume in order to keep things level, and they can't anticipate you deciding to exercise.
They might not be that wrong Article is paywalled, but I'd expect that a double digit % US citizens are in the top 1% globally. They're pretty wealthy.
