That is irresponsible advice.

What if it loses them their job and they struggle to get an equivalent job?

What if they have any financial responsibilities?

Great advice if you can change careers or easily slip into another position (which they've said they're worried they can't). Fine advice if you're a hippy hobo like me.

Hopefully they can find some other motivating force apart from the tech. Read https://www.kalzumeus.com/2011/10/28/dont-call-yourself-a-pr... Concentrate on other goals like learning how to influence the business, rather than technical goals.
Hi,HN link posts are confusing I know but read my initial discussion post. One of the first items there is the demo credentials
You need to be a chip designer to have necessarily heard of it. For bandwidth, most ML engineers really just care about the bandwidth between nodes in their cluster (eg: Mellanox, or whichever networking solution).
And Microsoft.
For better or worse, human psychology doesn't change that much - those historical standards very much apply today.

For us, older folks, we've seen this 'new normal' several times already - it will end up as usual. There are no free lunches and as it appears to me that have not entered any permanently high plateau.

It's even quite funny that ~100 years ago, we've had the previous big pandemic, and the biggest stock market crash. Epidemic of this century is done, now waiting for the second part !

> My past self doesn’t own me. My past self is gone.

> My future self is a thing that doesn’t exist.

> My present self is all the matters.

This is just a description of how it is. Your past self is gone. It only lives in your memory now. Your future self doesn't exist yet. It lives in your imagination now. Therefore, your present self has to be the only thing that matters. The others do not exist and many people would argue that your present self is also just an imagination.

This doesn't take anything away from betterment and personal development. It just puts it where it belongs, which is now.

It might not look so, but there is a stark difference between approaching this with the idea that "if I do X, everything will be fine in the future" vs. "I will try doing X to reach goal Y and re-evaluate when I am there, but I am always capable of accepting the now regardless of the outcome".

> My story about my identity is intended to freeze it where it is. That’s not a bug. That’s called staying alive.

I don't know what the OP wanted to indicate with that. I am not sure I fully grasp the intention behind it. For what it's worth, as I interpret these lines, I don't fully agree with them.
It depends on one's definition of "safe". Yes, smaller doses will have less of an impact.

I'm simply stating that ultrasound does impact the body. Despite the innocuous sounding name referencing 'sound', it is less like music and more like a microwave, capable of breaking kidney stones, burning tumors.

Re the most common usage, I don't think lots of scans in pregnancy can be beneficial. Perhaps one or 2 scans are worth the risk in special circumstances. Present day scanning machines are way more powerful than historical ones; the dose is not getting safer.
It doesn't. If NVIDIA doesn't work with SK Hynix to integrate PIM GDDR into their products they are going to die, because processing in memory is already a thing and it is faster and more scalable than GPU based inference.
No, that’s objectively wrong. You simply haven’t seen retail involvement in the market on this level before, not even close. It’s a new precedent, the market has changed.

To clarify, I’m not saying NVDA won’t crash from here or bear markets no longer exist. I’m simply saying that historic PE valuations are a poor metric for assessing the potential of a stock in todays market conditions.

Redis for 99% of the intended use-cases and companies will be just fine. It has always been rock solid when we used it. It was the opposite of DNS: it was never a problem.
I see this kind of argument so often from PFAS apologists - "we don't have conclusive proof yet that it's harmful so we should keep producing and using this substance which is known to bioaccumulate and never break down". Shouldn't the onus be on those who want to use it to prove that it's safe? If the studies we have are truly as inconclusive as they claim, doesn't that just mean that we don't have good evidence they're safe?
That doesn't sound like good advice. Your hip flexors are likely very tight/shortened, so you put a pillow underneath your knees/legs to prevent them from stretching at night and thereby make them even more shorter?

Yeah, something about "abstraction" and some hand-wavy magic, which computers are already doing.

This is great, thanks for doing this!

I think it is somewhat common situation, when home zigbee network does not reach e.g. garage or some other near-distance building. Usually there is some ethernet/wifi network on the satellite building. So distances what LoRaWAN can reach, are not probably even needed.

Read a bit about the implementation, but I think it is easier to just ask:
Could this work over general TCP somehow?
I'd basically first audit the entire infrastructure. Doing this will tell you about other problems (if any), so that you can take proper decisions.

Second I'd also talk to my customers - ie the developers on the challenges, pain points they are facing.

Next - you'd have two options. One is to build something (semi-automated or fully automated) or write scripts to achieve those tasks. Or you can consider buying an Internal Developer Platform. There are a lot of solutions out there that can solve for your potential needs. The answer depends on whether you have the internal expertise and bandwidth to do something like this. If not, buying an IDP would be a better idea.

I don't think EEE applies to killing off unmaintained, underused and extremely badly written DI containers like Unity DI or Autofac. Honestly, both can burn in hell. And nowadays M.E.DI isn't the sole choice and there is a rich set of alive and well DI frameworks to use depending on your needs.
call me cynic but i share the same thought. plus... unless we figure out a way to detect it, which we can't reliably do now at scale, this will be pretty useless. the ones who want to use it for profit will do whatever it takes, just the honest people will label it. i believe that this is even worse than to assume that everything is ai generated, as people without technical knowledge will trust that the labeling works.
True, To let people use the platform in the first place and to get to PMF is a challenge.

I think accessibility is probably one of the first things you should think about. Not because it is that important to you, but because when you decide to use this or that technology, this or that framework, accessability should be somewhere on the list of pros and cons for each choice.

Unless of course you're just experimenting and it seamlessly turns into a serious thing by accident, that is.
Try writing high performance math in Java even for CPU.

Porn classification / regulation boils down to: "I'll know it when I see it." Implying the existence of some hyper vigilant seer who can heroically determine what we should keep behind the video storre curtain of dencey, as if no grey areas exist. This also has the problem of requiring actual unbiased humans to view and accurately assess everything, which of course does not scale.

Perhaps AI classification is the mirror opposite to porn, using the test: "I'll know it when I don't see it", ie, if an average user would mistake AI generated content for reality, it should be clearly labeled as AI. But how do we enforce this? Does such enforcement scale? What about malicious actors?

We could conceivably use good AI to spot the bad AI, an endless AI cat and AI mouse game. Without strong AI regulation and norms a large portion of the internet will devolve into AI responding to AI generated content, seems like a gigantic waste of resources and the internet's potential.
LoRa WAN is a promising technology in general.

> The amusing thing for me* is this is just coffee budgets for pen-and-paper theorists

Unfortunately not. From his website [0], the extent of the grant funding involved is much more than just coffee budget:

> The Black Hole Initiative that features this on its website: $16 million from the Templeton Foundation, $3.6 million from the Moore Foundation.
> The Simons Collaboration on Celestial Holography: $8 million from the Simons Foundation.
> NSF Grant: $400,000 from the NSF.
> DOE Grant: $3.5 million from the DOE.

This kind of money could fund a whole lot of other theory. Hell, it even could fund a lot of experiments (albeit not in high energy physics).

Not at all. I'm lazy. Why do I have to open the Amazon app to search for what I want and click one button. Why can't Siri do it for me and take a percentage of the sale? Also I don't want to be limited to Amazon only so why not allow approved merchants to plug their backends into the search that Siri does?

This looks really good. I hope ultimately this replaces the “Azure Cache for Redis” resource. It’s slow, it’s a fork of Redis made to run on Windows, and it takes nearly an hour to create an instance of it.
Canonical and Gitlab are both on my “ignore until the end of time” list due to their dehumanising recruitment approaches. Some companies design their recruitment processes around the “let’s see how much nonsense they will put up with” approach to filtering people, and I don’t to work with, or use the products/services of these kind of companies. They are dead to me.

This project has indeed potential to be super useful, just at this point seems super sketchy:

- There is invisible footer with ton of SEO spam, after "All Rights Reserved © 2024 twstalker.com" (the copyright sign is made by font awesome, what is, in short, wrong as well).
- It tries to load images directly from twimg.com, what is commonly blocked on any third-party site by most privacy protecting browsers, so you to see images on this "privacy protecting" site you have to (ironically) switch off tracking protections.
- CSS is half baked: it starts with syntactically invalid includes of the Roboto font from google fonts (what could be also considered tracking). Because it does not load due invalid syntax, and because it is used as `body { font-family: Roboto !important; }`, page is rendered in default (most probably serif) font. No generic font family fallback as well as !important are red flags.
- There is Google Tag Manager.
- Everything is loaded from various CDNs.

That makes sense. As opposed to a main-sequence nova, in which a very-late-sequence star goes through the advanced burning phases, with fusion progressively of carbon, neon, oxygen, and finally silicon (to iron) occurs. The final stages of this occur quite quickly, on the order of months, weeks, days, and even hours, as I understand. Whether or not the burning phases can be astronomically observed and predicted I don't know, and was what inspired my question above.

<https://ned.ipac.caltech.edu/level5/Sept16/Rauscher/Rauscher...>

For a 25M star (one 25 times our Sun's mass), these phases last ~0.5 my (helium), ~600 years (carbon), 6 months (neon), 6 days (oxygen), and about a day (silicon).

(More massive stars burn much hotter and faster than lighter ones.)
Genuine question (I don't know much about cloud stuff): how is providing a cloud service/platform (at scale) even remotely as hard as designing, manufacturing and selling GPU's (including drivers and firmware) at massive scale?

It feels like reading that setting up something like Facebook would be extremely challenging for a company like SpaceX.
We can capture the big picture with broad brush strokes, but only by sacrificing the details, or we can abandon clarity and gain knowledge of exactly where things stand right ‘now’, but perhaps we can’t have both.

Which is neither here, not there. They are still types of businesses gravely affected by high property taxes and land value taxes (the parent even spells it out: "low property taxes and generous loan terms" (...) primarily benefited small businesses, individuals, etc"), and are also what the parent calls "low-value business" (low monetary value, of course).

Can you give a few examples? I don't think I'll ever switch to do anything not security relevant.
Agree but very much with your caveat. If you study the mathematics of some sort of abstract structure you are doing research in pure maths. That is a worthy and completely legitimate pursuit and a ton of stuff started life as pure abstract mathematical research and ended up having real-world benefits way down the line that noone could have forseen.[1]

If on the other hand you say that abstract structure is a fundamental building block of the universe and, say, unifies the standard model with gravity etc but actually your theory isn't explaining anything observable I would say that isn't theoretical physics[2] but is just "making shit up".

So far string theory has failed to produce any sort of verifiable prediction[3], so I just don't see how it's physics (you could say "yet" perhaps).

I enjoyed the video "String Theory Lied to Us and Now Science Communication is Hard"[4] by Angela Collier, who is a computational astrophysicist[5], because it gives a sense for how these things impact other physicists and the popular perception of science.

[1] And Ed Witten for example is without doubt a very impressive mathematician - he won the Fields medal.

[2] Which is the science of matter, energy, space, time etc all the stuff which makes up the natural world.

[3] In particular, the one that has been tried is supersymmetry and the LHC, as I understand it as a non-physicist, brought about an experimental result that called supersymmetric extensions of the standard model into serious doubt https://arxiv.org/abs/1112.3068

I think the point that are trying to make is that if it was more common, it would be noticeable and more quantifiable. Otherwise, most of the cases seems to have been tracked to industrial exposure.
Is there a way to temporarily connect to Vector and select either sources or sinks to be duplicated into that stream (let's say stdout or TCP socket)? I'd love to find a use case for Logdy where I can just stream whatever is landing in Vector to Logdy[1] and literally see everything through a web UI. The use case would be to debug complex observability pipeline as Logdy serves a UI for everything that lands on it and allows to parse and filter easily.

When I was young I studied physics. The initial idea of string theory is kind of cute. It kind of answers the question what the quantum version is of a rubber band. But that does not really work out as a fundamental theory because it has to live in 24 dimensions, contains tachyons, and there are no fermions. To fix this people invented the fermionic string. Already at that point this seems a somewhat artificial thing to do. The thing is that ever since the question was posed it is still quite unclear how to bring general relativity and quantum field theory together. String theory was interesting for so long, I think, because it complicated enough to contains lots of interesting mathematics but not complicated enough to be completely intractable.

These keyless systems enable these cars to be broken into really easily. I’ve had friends see thieves operate in pairs, one by the front door, one by the car, and effectively use repeaters between the house and the car to unlock his Range Rover, and then drive away with it, in under a minute (as captured by his home security system).

The question then becomes more of a value proposition / opportunity cost. If you can steal any keyless car trivially, why wouldn’t you target the vehicles that can net you the greatest return?

Why steal a Prius when you can steal a Evoque?
