skysight-inc/HackerNews huggingface dataset:
I suppose I meant it as to say thoroughly understand a piece of code, why it exists, the context it operates in, and the implications of modifying it. I’ve learned the hard way how making a decision about the need for code or the way it’s implemented can lead to unintended consequences, some of which may be difficult to detect. So I’m using grok to describe a completeness of understanding, which I believe aligns with its dictionary definition.
Here's a bit of a quantification of the point Doug makes. Indeed, for a number of scenarios you get better results if you combine vector search and keyword search into a hybrid retrieval step, and do reranking on top of that.

I'm curious what issues you have with it, as it should be pretty much a 1:1 replacement when you use the Docker compatibility for most people. Rancher Desktop is also a pretty good replacement as well there are things that aren't quite working in Podman.
A commercial product that has seen almost no green field development in ages. The only way to make it long-term sustainable is to reduce the barriers to new development.

One thing they could do is to offer it in cloud instances. Let more people play with it, see its strengths compared to Linux, and let it win share on its merits.

The optics of this aren't great - it looks like they aren't fond on people learning its characteristics.
Agreed. I recently made it out of a high demand religion. When talking to my brother-in-law (still in the religion) about it, he said something along the lines of "I don't think the church is necessarily true. But I think I personally need it in order to be a good person."

Well.. of course that is what the religion you were born into, brainwashed by, and are currently paying crazy amounts of money to wants you to think. It is necessary for the churches survival.

People need to be careful about believing anything taught by an organization when that organization's very survival depends on you believing that thing.
Of course we're doomed. We always are.

We're doomed by the sun going nova in 4 billion years. Shorter term, we're doomed by global warming, economic instability, the AI revolution, viruses, farmland failure, political chaos/incompetence, the international order falling apart (maybe in a very hot war), and the fall of civilization.

But we always have been. My grandparents went through World War II, the Great Depression, World War II, and then the Cold War. That looked like a lot of doom, and it got quite deadly for a huge number of people. But we (as a society) survived.

Your bank account may take a painful hit. But things will settle down to some approximation of stability, and there will be work, including work for you. It may be a bumpy ride, though.

This is survivorship bias in action. They intended to build a bridge. That is all we can infer from the fact that a bridge exists. That they used available materials and the bridge was not abused by subsequent usage outside its design spec is not proof of any specific intention on the part of the builder. That exists only in your head. It's like assuming dinosaurs died in specific spots with the intent that their bones petrify and fossilize. You're reading too much into not enough facts.
This is always brought up as the Achilles heel of Rust but, like... it's not that bad. You just need a weak reference. In fact, it's no different than a language like Swift, where everything is always reference counted. However, Swift will happily let you do it the wrong way and leave finding the resulting memory leak up to you. I prefer the way Rust handles it.
Maybe they want to compete for MCP and GECOS users. VMS is the new MULTICS killer.

When I was a kid, I once brought a stethoscope with me on the airplane so that I could watch the movie for free. (Or rather listen to it.) I pulled off the heart-listening cup part of the stethoscope and inserted beverage straws into the rubber tubing. Then I put one straw into each of the two little holes in the armrest.

It worked perfectly! Until a stewardess caught me and made me stop.

> No, Neorg does not use the same markup as Org-mode.

Okay, I admit I assumed that prematurely. I do stand by my words though - Org-mode in Emacs is much more capable than Markdown in any other editor or a specialized tool I have seen. Emacs is not without flaws, and Org-mode also has weaknesses. Sometimes Markdown is a better tool for certain things, but when strictly comparing capabilities and potential, Org-mode would be ahead. Anyone who has used it sufficiently would attest to that.

Thanks for the link to that book. I don't know if it's the because of this catastrophe, but it looks to be unobtanium at the moment. Will have to find it in the library.

> lack of redundancy

This is what I am surprised at from many angles. It seems to me that the ship, the port (in the form of lack of tugboats), and the bridge (in the form of lack of secondary protection of the pillars) all had a lack of redundancy and secondary options.
Sad that you're being downvoted for the truth.

Unless you're doing some extremely niche work, Bash >= 3.2 (because Mac) is nearly always going to be available. Even if it _isn't_, there will still be sh or dash, and it's not _that_ hard to stick with pure POSIX for most small uses.

The last time I (by which I mean my team) rewrote a script from Bash into Python was because it had gotten unwieldy over time, I was the sole maintainer, and very few other people at the company knew Bash well enough to understand some of it. The upside was testing frameworks in Python are way better than Bash.
Using Google’s zx I write my support scripts in JS and can use shell features like piping right in the same file.
> Is it just applying past experiences to a new situation, or can you learn to look for solutions?

You can achieve anything you put your mind to. It took me a while to realize this. Turns out the brain is a marvelous machine and once it has a goal (solve such and such a problem) it will try everything in its power to solve it, since it's a goal-oriented machine. People doubt their own capabilities, and don't believe in themselves, which is their own downfall.

I think technically .pod quadlet files came out in 4.9 but I'm still excited for them. Quadlet works great as a docker-compose replacement at the administration level but for use-cases like setting up a quick dev environment it's still lacking a little. Hopefully being able to easily set up a user-level systemd-unit pod should make it easier.
I just went and looked, it's 2 clicks from the "current song playing" in the lower left. Click on the song NAME and it will take you to the album and then back to the playlist.

If you click on the album art it opens the "now playing" window. That has some credits but not the year of publication. (and is missing publisher, producer unless that's part of the "artist" info..)

Mind you if your looking at your play list, the album art and song title are not clickable, but the artist is? The album is listed in playlist and clickable. (so none of this behaves like current playing song in lower left though it looks the same).

What is the point of the now playing window? Big album art? Selling me stuff that I never scroll down to see?

Churches are essentially tribes (i.e. shared identity) unified by a sense of purpose external to one's self.

Cycling clubs and board games groups can bring people together, but they don't ask for the same kind of commitment or engender the same sense of shared identity.

It isn't that they cannot substitute and create many of the benefits, but are unlikely to.

Are you a musician? Have you ever used DAW like Cubase or Pro Tools? If not, have you ever tried the FOSS (GPLv3) Audacity audio editor [1]. Waves and Waveforms are colloquial terminology, so the terms are familiar to anyone in the industry as well as your average hobbyist.

Additionally, PCM [2] is at the heart of many of these tools, and is what is converted between digital and analog for real-world use cases.

This is literally how the ear works [3], so before arguing that this is the "worst possible representation of signal state," try listening to the sounds around you and think about how it is that you can perceive them.

Yes you have some really good points. There are a lot of business problems to overcome here!

Our CEO Philip is exactly that, a commodities trader with 8 years experience and a wide network for us to tap into.

As for every commodity market being different with its own intricate details, you are right. We are taking an approach to start in agriculture (sugar, coffee, cocoa) because these have similar supply chains. However, we are building configurable tools from the foundation to support more complex customizations to allow companies to easily tailor the solutions to their needs.

We have also had some calls recently with commodity producers who have shown a lot of interest in the platform so far, because they many of them manage their own logistics teams internally, which opens up an additional market outside of just the big trading players.

I really appreciate your feedback, thank you.
Because the average user of AI is not a Hacker News user who understands its limitations, and the ones who do understand their limitations tend to exaggerate and overhype it to make people think it can do anything. The only real fix for it is for companies like OpenAI to encourage better usage (e.g. tutorials), but there's no incentive for them to do so yet.

> pissing off huge retailers

In the US Sega provided early release units to several retailers but notably skipped Best Buy, Walmart, and KB Toys. KB Toys was so mad they didn't carry Saturn stuff at all from that point.

At the time KB Toys was a pretty major retailer for video games, they'd have a presence in malls where a Babbages, EB, or Software Etc (retailers that got early release Saturns) wouldn't be found.

Sega's early release of the Saturn was one of the dumbest own-goals in video games. The Saturn was already going to have a serious struggle against the PlayStation for other reasons, fucking over retailers did absolutely nothing to help Sega.

You can just use LiveATC on your phone these days, since many flights now have gate-to-gate Wi-Fi.

I think it's not allowed to actually operate a radio receiver on an airplane in the us: https://travel.stackexchange.com/questions/2322/can-i-listen...

Some airlines might still have the "listen to ATC" feature available, but in my experience, it's the pilots' decision whether that's available or not, and I've only ever been able to use it on a United flight once.

Sirius XM on JetBlue also has an "ATC channel", but I've only ever heard silence there, and I'm not sure if that's a similar thing (i.e. sourced locally), or just a random ATC feed from somewhere in the country relayed via satellite.
Yes, it places a burden on the maintainer, but that's exactly why it increases the value of the code. That burden is the maintainer providing that value.

We'll be releasing a custom dictionary and templates soon. We are testing them internally now, and they aren't quite reliable enough to release, but we understand how important this is for many workflows.

On accuracy, we benchmark very well against even large async models, with a WER of .05-.06 and when Aqua does make a mistake you can often correct it by just telling it "no it's our side not outside" and it won't mangle the text.
The chances of cargo update pulling in some updated dependency which is now compromised with malware is low. The chances of a compromised dependency getting past `cargo-audit` are low. The chances of compromised code causing measurable harm are low. The repercussions for me publishing compromised code are low. The effort I would have to expend to manually check the code is high.

So yes, I `cargo update`.
My partner plays violin and was looking for a version of Lindsey Stirling's Crystallize without the violin part (or rather, with it turned down.)

You later clarified that by "memory safety bugs" you don't actually mean "memory safety bugs," but rather "use array index after free." But that isn't a memory safety bug. (It might be a denial of service bug or a logic bug, but because of bounds checks, it isn't a memory safety bug.) So no, I'm afraid I haven't missed the point at all.

I've recently been experimenting with nix generators. It's nice.

What's the most pleasant way to develop and build nix images if your dev env is a regular Linux distro without nix installed?

So far the least bad seems to be running Nixos in a VM with VS Code remote via SSH and scp'ing images around. At least quickemu makes getting the VM pleasant. But VMs are cumbersome.

Docker would be great, but nix from the official Docker container doesn't seem to like running as non-root, which means you can't use volume mounts for the code and change the user ID so that the file permissions are right from inside the container.
Floppy drives.

My boat has an inboard diesel so no ability to direct the prop. It does have a bow thruster, but it's only really used at slow speed, usually right at the point of docking and undocking in tight spaces, once you get the boat moving in forward or reverse you don't need it.

I have no idea about container ship sized boats, though I'd imagine a bow thruster of steerable prop might not be practical at that scale.
Same reason we can't trust people to drive 35 MPH when the road is straight and wide, no matter how many signs are posted to declare the speed limit. It's just too tempting and easy to become complacent.

That, and these companies have a substantial financial interest in pushing the omniscience/omnipotence narrative. OpenAI trying to encourage responsible AI usage is like Phillip Morris trying to encourage responsible tobacco use. Fundamental conflict of interest.
Thank you for the correction. My confusion comes from being able to command-click on standard library types and methods, and being taken to their implementation, not just a declaration. I realize these aren't really concepts in Rust the same way they are in e.g. C/C++, but I figured if the source is present, the compiler is smart enough to not be over-compiling unused symbols.
Maybe, but lots of roman buildings endured the time in much better shape, than many buildings that were build after them. Have you seen some of them in front of you? I have and I am impressed. (I am in italy right now to go look at some more).

I looked up what "the sentinel" was, and it turns out it was a game in 1986, that works on the BBC Micro and Commodore 64, and has 3D graphics! I didnt even know it was possible to do that on average computers in 1986!

The passthrough camera has fairly low resolution compared to the inner displays, so if it looks "lifelike" to you, it's probably time to consider getting your glass prescription updated.
