Claude 3 Opus is in the capability ballpark of GPT-4, GPT-3.5 has alternatives that are cheaper (Claude 3 Haiku) or cheaper and work offline (Qwen 1.5, Mixtral, …).
We Gen-Xers are the original digital natives. I grew up with early 8-bit computers, moving to 16-bit, 32-bit and 64-bit. My original 286/386 PCs got tinkered so much I didn't bother putting the case cover back on.

My desk was a mess of serial cables, MIDI cables, speaker and headphone cables. My "Internet" was dialed through manual Hayes modem commands and later required starting Trumpet Winsock. I spent hours squeezing 10K out of my DOS low memory for games or Win 3.1.

I had to partition my multiple drives, get more HDD space using Stacker and worry about FAT16/FAT32. I had to worry about 16-bit compatibility in Windows and DirectX minor versions.

Now some jerk comes and tells me I can't use some slow and ridiculous browser-based software?

It's infuriating that all modern computers have a secure crypto TPM, but you're explicitly not allowed to use it for your own important keys, it's only for securing things against you like the DRM in certain drivers.

You left out the fact that ISP’s are effectively a monopoly in most regions of the US, which is a problem even if it happens to be a different company holding the monopoly per region.

Also, ISP’s have been caught brazenly selling raw realtime user location data which ends up in the hands of bounty hunters: https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2019/01/t-mobile-sprint-...

This is far worse in my mind than anything related to FB and Cambridge Analytica. No, Facebook was not selling literal location pings to anyone.

Yes, but it also hurts transparency, being treated fair and expose any foul play. I think full transparency, who flagged what and when, as a dataset, will be beneficial. HN became important source of truth, there is not many like it.

Or drop flagging as a feature completely. Looks easier :)

We haven't even gotten there yet, have we?

Yes and no. Countless teams have solved exactly this problems at universities and research groups across the world. Technically it's pretty much a solved problem. The hard part is getting the systems out of the labs and certified as an actual product and convincing hospitals and doctors to actually use them.
Yes, we absolutely are there: https://youtu.be/D3oRN5JNMWs?feature=shared

My professor (Sir Michael Brady) at university 14 years ago set up a company to do this very thing, and he already had reliable models back before 2010. I believe their company was called Oxford Imaging or something similar.

There. Fixed.

All the bad examples given have antialiasing applied.

In the past there were bitmap fonts that were redered without antialiasing and they were very sharp (as sharp as a CRT could draw them) and then there was manual font hinting with no size interpolation and again with no antialiasing.

Today we can choose between antialiased fonts that are blurry, or no antialiasing that are sharp, but with ugly random stroke widths.

That's because today, who would spend a year to manually do font hinting on thousands of unicode glyphs and dosens of font sizes? And who would deny the user's "right" to footgun their eyes with a 12.5 font size on a bitmap font that only has sizes 11 and 13px?

Want some proof? Open the devtools on his blog and remove the unhinted "IBM Plex Sans". See how much better it looks with the old Arial instead.

I didn't meant to discuss how this should be done or not done, nor the merits of taking down this emulator's repo. I was mostly making a point that one can maliciously take down Gitlab projects and get the accounts of all the contributors blocked immediately without actual proof of wrongdoing. It's not a platform or company which can be trusted. Imagine you start a successful open source project or a company does that. A competitor or someone who wants to do harm can just instantly take down your project and get everyone banned immediately.
direnv + mise does exactly that. When I cd to various directories I get different env vars, it's pretty neat. Setting aliases would just be a case of adding them.

Excellent! Already emailed you some more details.
I wasn't trying to say that there is no cost, I was pointing out that the cost is not large enough to affect the ranking on this index. With an index composed of many different factors, you can always focus on one aspect that is particularly positive or negative, but that doesn't mean the overall ranking is wrong just because it also takes other factors into account.

The EIU gives Germany an overall score of 8.35. How much higher should it be if the exit tax were abolished? How much higher if it's not abolished, but deferred until the capital gains are realized?
I saw you mention Python, but if you also happen to be interested in Golang and data streaming, https://benthos.dev is a good project to contribute to.

The maintainer is super-friendly and he's always active on the https://benthos.dev/community channels. I'm also there most of the time, since I've been contributing to the project for several years now.

When I was about 16 and considering spending my hard-earned money on my first computer, I was drooling over the Falcon. I wanted to make music, so the built-in MIDI ports on the Atari computers was very compelling. However... my best friend at the time was big into the Amiga so in the end I got an A1200 (and never regretted it). But I still drool when I see the Falcon!
This is an interesting idea, but I think you need to clarify what "HR department" means here. Because companies will just get around this by calling HR something else, and I don't think it's practical for any serious company with employees to not have someone doing HR-adjacent duties.
These articles almost always include evidence to suggest that ageism is categorically "bad business", and every time I'm left wondering why older workers aren't taking advantage of this apparent industry blindspot to build their own powerhouse companies?

Being in a series of small startups for most of my career I haven't done a lot of hiring, but I've always aimed for people with more experience than me, so they tend to be older. And man, good software developers with 20+ years of experience are _so_ good that it's hard to imagine anyone passing them up.

> It's OK that you don't understand the phenomenon, I'm probably at fault here for not explaining it well enough although I did my best. But if you don't understand it, please at least admit that it's what happening even if it sounds counter-intuitive to you.

Not at all - I thank you. I am curious and want to understand. I simply don't accept counter-intuitive claims without good reason. I accept that such things as counter-intuitive claims exist. But, even so, I need to know how to verify things personally.

So, if I see plastics that are turned to dust after just 10 years, but another is saying that the dust continues to degrade for 500 years, I can consider the claim - but I want to know how it can be verified. Once you are talking about stuff you can't see or confirm, you are in thrall to experts. Unfortunately, when information or tools are not available to others, this provides cover of darkness for all sorts of poor ideas.

I can imagine all sorts of claims... but I'm after knowledge, not hearsay. And knowledge is not a communal endeavour - it is personal, based in personal verification. To me, even scientific claims are hearsay - you of course will know about the reproducibility crisis, and will no doubt have countless examples of how science presumed to know one thing, then changed position. Of course, this is the scientific method - nothing is set in stone. But science present monolithic conclusions that might be wrong. And its not like scientific endeavours cannot be steered by money.

The philosophical issue in play here relates to knowledge. What is it that knows - is it a group or an individual? Can it be that one part of science state this or that to be true, and everyone else must then uniformly accept that pronouncement? A pronouncement that cannot be verified personally? Even though we know that all science is the output of flawed humans? Etc.

Thanks for the exchange.
Noise doesn't protect against that, statistics is a thing.

But I think you might overall be right that this requires two colocated processes: the paper talks about how the DMP breaks assumptions made by "the constant-time programming model", and I took this to mean that constant-time algorithms aren't constant-time any more. Reading more closely, I think maybe the issue is that "the constant-time programming model" was also assumed to make secrets safe from cache timing side-channels leaking the secrets to other processes on the same CPU, and this seems like it might be the assumption that's broken by the DMP...

I'll have to read more, I've just skimmed the abstract and introduction so far.

I don't really see the reason for obsessing over hypocrisy in such a way. Humans are inconsistent and illogical in their choices all the time, trying to pretend we're logical machines is a practice in futility — one that many great philosophers have taken the time to tear apart over the centuries. I don't eat my eggs in a certain way because it's logically consistent, I eat them because I like them.
The problem is asking for facts, LLM are not a database so they know stuff but it is compressed so expect wrong facts, wrong names, dates, wrong anything.

We will need an LLM as a front end then it will generate a query to fetch the facts from the internet or a database , then maybe format the facts for your consumption.

I brought a black-and-white laser printer 20 years ago and, much like you, I haven't had a single problem since.

My parents, in the meantime, have probably gone through 6 or 7 printers. For a truly cursed printing experience, here's my advice:

* First of all, make sure it's an inkjet. They give the best colour print quality, you see.

* Second, always be on the look out for a good deal. Why buy a $400 printer when you can buy a $50 one? As far as you know it'll be junk in 2-3 years anyway.

* Third, get a wifi printer that doesn't have a screen, and make sure your wifi router doesn't support WPS. If the printer comes with an app, make sure it no longer works on your dated smartphone. Install the printer at the absolute edge of your wifi coverage.

* Fourth, make sure it's a multifunction printer/scanner/copier, and always install the manufacturer's full suite of software. You want to be able to access all the features, don't you?

Just follow these simple steps and before you know it, you'll have empathy with the many people who say printers suck.

I'd leave that for the lawmakers and courts, not an expert. Same goes for the definition of "unions".

The point is HR is always acting in the interest of the company first (if you're surprised, you're probably young and work at a tech megacorp) and if the interests of employees are aligned with these (again, usually the case at tech megacorps), all is fine and dandy. Unions are needed when those interests start to diverge as individual employees have basically zero negotiating power and it's in the interest of the company to exploit that to the maximum legally achievable level - pure game theory.

IOW I see the perfect union as an HR-but-for-employees department. Real unions are obviously broken by individuals exploiting unions they're part of.

It's great to see research in this field, I know there is opportunity here, and I hope to someday benefit from progress. But I skimmed the paper, and it doesn't appear solve a problem that I have. From the practical standpoint, what I want from a time series tool includes: 1) a small set of simple levers that I can review and tune 2) short training time for any input sets of size O(10k) to O(100k) (this covers seconds/day, minutes/week, hours/year) 3) the process of train + forecast can run fine on CPUs -- not GPUs with low memory overhead 4) decent out of the box performance that basically passes the sniff test and 5) a simple way to include regressors. I've enough experience to have learned to be wary of fully automated tuning, benchmark performance metrics, elaborate models, etc.
Bias, because you live in Athens and don't want more gentrification? Or because you live in Thessaloniki and want more business there?

I personally find Athens to be a much more appealing city, speaking as a tech worker, rock climber, and (near) vegan, who has spent a fair bit of time in both.

Thessaloniki has its pros, but loses to Athens in pretty much everything I care about, other than having a nice bike/scooter-friendly boardwalk

Maybe I'm missing something obvious, but what is the idea behind quantizing and tokenizing time series? We tokenize text because text isn't numbers. In the case of time series, we're... turning numbers into less precise numbers? The benefit of scaling and centering is trivial and i guess all timeseries ML does it, but I don't see why we need a token after that.
