I would try grok if there were any features that really set it apart. I’ve never been apart of the twitter world and by extension X.
Maybe some grok fans can persuade me to try it out.

Im an appsec engineer so by the nature of my trade im generally using it to look up things related to exploits, osint, or threat intel.

I actually canceled my ChatGPT subscription because when they implemented some automated security controls to limit the use by APTs it started to refuse to do anything i asked it too. It was different than lazy. Like refused to analyze anything for me. I don’t have proof this was the cause but I was routinely asking it explain blog post from google project zero. Something OpenAI said was a behavior exhibited by APTs using their platform. None of the devs at my job reported similar response behavior.

I tried gemini pro and it’s responses were on par with GPT but it was short winded and felt slightly better then their generative search.

I’ve been using Claude, and it’s been by far the best in terms of understanding my half baked fringe train of thoughts.

I saw were Elon said it was more lax in terms of what it would respond to but he’s trying to make money and I doubt it.

Does grok shine in any areas? If not response accuracy maybe app features make it worth it?

I do run local LLMs but I have a 2060RTX and it’s a bit like playing with an old dog.
Not just Britain. Most conservative governments look for short-term gain for some, but inflict long-term decline for the whole.

It's called shortsightedness.
It hasn't at all. If you try to transfer money internationally, you will still pay huge fees and it will take sometimes days to settle. Crypto is truly international, and ERC20s like USDC remain fully programmable in a way that cash will never be. It makes things like permissionless 24/7 exchanges (see Uniswap) possible. Which is more than just point to point or account to account transfers. It's an exchange from one asset to another controlled completely by an automated market making algorithm. You cannot find that in trad fi.
Very true, very important!
> They should be held accountable for that.

In what way, exactly? Because from where I am sitting, it appears Boeing would enjoy unconditional support of US government no matter what they do.
Best captcha I've ever seen <3
I had the same thought but then the kiosk could do that and they wouldn’t need to transmit the MAC to their server.
So do it, mister ideas guy.
Was the 787 not a brand new plane?
That got grounded in 2013 due to battery fires.
> Unfortunately, I don’t really see how you could make a standalone GUI app of meaningful scope on Linux, given the platform that “standalone” is usually defined with respect to doesn’t include a widget toolkit or even a font handling library (it does on Windows).

Fair point. I meant able to run without needing any special libraries above those that can be assumed to be installed on a standard linux desktop.
Depends on the modules, modern ones tend to be fully reflashable, I think. Early ones like these, probably not as easy to modify in situ.
The problem as I see it is not polyamory, it is casual sexual relationships between coworkers. It is kind of like why officers are not supposed to have relationships with their subordinates -- it subverts the authority that must exist in a structure where people are held accountable for decisions. By adding polyamory into the mixed it just made it worse since it increased the incidents exponentially.
I did that a few times myself :)

Hey minimaxir, I help maintain the official OpenAI Python package. Mind sharing what issues you've had with it? (Have you used it since November, when the 1.0 was released?)

Keen for your feedback, either here or email: alex@stainlessapi.com
open protocols in the case of Facebook and banning studios from owning/exclusivity with distributors in the case of Netflix.
Yeah but if you’re going to the trouble of switching, probably pick something that actually outperforms Redis/Redis Cluster. Which basically leaves you with Garnet.

Redict is a pointless endeavor. Just stick with Redis 7.2 before the licensing change. Maybe change the binary name if it makes folks feel better.
I wonder if software really deserves its own economics.

If you haven't read Hal Varian's Information Rules, I highly recommend it. Check the publication date, then read it anyway, then reflect on the publication date when you're done. I found it very worthwhile.
First party clients are typically an afterthought, and you can't add features without getting a PM to sign off, which strangles the impulse to polish & sand down rough edges.
Even the local businesses in Argentina sometimes accept crypto. I've seen a clothes shop in Jujuy that had a sign claiming to accept Bitcoin.
While there is probably a bubble effect happening, he's right that younger generations seem more likely to travel abroad. Slightly over half of Americans under 30 have a current passport (essentially required for travel outside the US) while only about 1/3 of 45-64 year-olds do: https://today.yougov.com/travel/articles/46028-adults-under-....
Ah, so since you usually need to ask 5-6 clarifying questions, you'd rather it be done in short bursts synchronously!

Right now with explanations.app, you can only follow-up with comments OR by posting new questions - asynchronously. I see that this might be a problem.

I look forward to you trying it this weekend :^) so I can also hear about your usage experience before deciding on the best way to solve this sync./async. trade-off

(perhaps the naive solution is voice chat - you post a question, your teacher happens to be free, you happen to be free, you just talk quickly back & forth)
Where do you live that fresh produce is labeled with nutrition facts? I've got a box of Costco tomatoes and a bag of carrots here, and they are labeled with weights and dates, but nothing about nutrition. The bag of carrots just says, "Ingredients: organic carrots."

If it's not because of a blockchain, how come there is no other good way?

It's not on it's own private blockchain because then no one would use it.
What's the "Day Knowledge Direction" cluster in the Atlas view?
That's not what the feature was. The feature was that you could use Messenger inside Netflix and Spotify to chat with your friends without leaving those apps. If you opted into using Messenger to chat with your friends inside Spotify, I'm confused why you think Spotify couldn't access your messages, given that Messenger was unencrypted at the time and you were running it inside Spotify. How else would the feature work? It's Messenger running inside Spotify; just like how iOS has access to the unencrypted files and network traffic of any app on your iPhone, Spotify could access any of the unencrypted files or network traffic in Spotify.

It's a dumb feature and I'm glad they killed it, but the "gotcha" here isn't much of a gotcha IMO. It was an opt-in feature to use Messenger inside these other apps; of course the other apps could see your messages if you opted into that. It's like complaining that GMail "shares your private email" with Apple Mail if you use Apple Mail as your mail client.

> Am I insane or can't a company just fork it from before the license change?

The article mentions half a dozen such forks. So not insane, maybe just a bit lazy ;).
There is no amount of “being in touch” that could justify literally criminal behavior. The consequences of propagating lawlessness are far greater than starving to death. Unless, of course, you have a self-centered point of view and/or no principles.

If you have a problem with the way the world works, there is always a non-violent course of action to take to change it. There is no other option. If you think there is another option all you have to do is say so, I’m sure the keepers of law and order and the voting masses on whose behalf they act are equally willing to deal with whatever you choose.
It took 5 days from the 2nd bomb to surrender, and many historians think the Soviet Union's simultaneous declaration of war was a more significant factor.
And if you analyzed the user's cursor movements (on desktop), reaction time, and positional accuracy, it could be a genuinely decent CAPTCHA.
This is the way. You don't have to protect what you don't collect. Mullvad is an excellent example of this. They don't even want you to pick a password, and they're fine if you just mail them cash as payment.
No, you can test transactions as they would happen on mainnet (tests with mainnet state). Or if you want you can fork mainnet and do your stuff there.

It's absolutely representive of how it looks in deployment. You can test transactions EXACTLY how they would happen on mainnet.

I don't get your second point.
Is there a Sparabo too?

It is always funny to see old names associated with totally different new things!
FWIW, here are the only links I could find in the article which were tagged "Python3 Package": https://community.openai.com/t/647723 and https://community.openai.com/t/586484 . Note they don't see to have anything to do with the Python package whatsoever.

I was pretty disappointed to see this, as I work on the Python package and was hoping for a good place to find feedback (apart from the github issues, which I monitor pretty closely).

I'm not a data scientist; maybe someone from the Julep team could comment on the labeling? Or how I could find some more specific themes of problems with the Python package? (Was it just that people who have a problem of some kind just happen to also use the Python library?)
Think of all the money GE saved: no need for expensive employees or manufacturing costs in the appliances division. Just sit back and collect royalties on the use of the trademark.

And if a user consented to Netflix-based chat, Facebook overshared all chat data, instead of only the Netflix chat data, because they couldn't be bothered to build a properly isolated API?

That's like asking permission to read and write your entire phone, just to provide the ability to write and read back a file.
DuckDB is an in-process DB similar to SQLite - so every application in your stack would need to embed it. Spice is a binary that has Flight SQL and HTTP query endpoints - so multiple applications can connect to it from any language.

I mean "short" in comparison to the unlimited, but lossy recall that the Mamba blocks provide. Transformers are limited to the context length, while Mamba can carry along state. While it can remember things from a lot farther back, it is limited and must thus eventually drop things and/or lose precision.

This is called "fraud" and in any properly-run country people would be doing long prison sentences for it.

Think about the difference between accessing these specific messages, and accessing all messages.
I honestly don’t believe that’s true. People who might check something out of the library are a very large superset of the people who might actually purchase the book. Society loses out if the browsers can’t browse, but the publishers rarely do. If anything, those browsers might one day actually purchase, if they could learn more about the item.
Which nu trek? I mean Discovery is to me nearly unwatchable and I activly dislike almost all of the characters. Strange New Worlds on the other hand feels like classic trek with a better budget it is well cast and well written. Picard... I liked parts of it, it got better the farther along it went. Season one was actively bad, bad with good moments though. Season two was better Q stole every moment he was on screen. Season three legitimately was great star trek. Lower decks... if it weren't considered cannon it would be better, as is it a fun adult cartoon comedy. Prodigy is a kids show that I put on for my small children but could not be bothered to actually fallow. The Nu trek movies are brainless popcorn flicks written by people that wish they were writing starwars/fast&the furious crossover fanfiction instead.

Give strange new worlds a shot you won't regret it.
So... this sounds like OAuth, with a nice consent scene that says I'm giving Netflix this access to my FB DNs. That's what you mean, right? Otherwise, what the fuck is the difference?.

And really, as if this makes anything better, wow. Imagine having the feeling of obligation that you have to stick your neck out over this. Just take your over-sized salary and be happy knowing you work for one of the worst companies of our time. (despite my tone, at this point, I honestly say that without judgement, just ... own it.)

Could not agree more hahaha! I tried to work around it building methods like “torch.add(a, b)” for operator overloading and “torch.at(index)” for slicing. But it’s definitely not as seamless as these features you proposed.
Thanks! Yeah, the Mark Rober video was pretty great.
What caught my attention was that the first-class mail rate in the UK is £1.35 which is about $1.70 at current exchange rates. In contrast, in the US a first-class stamp is $0.68 (I buy forever stamps in bulk so I was surprised to discover it had gotten that high). The USPS really is a bargain.
New and fun isn't the same as addictive.

We don't consider people watching TV, listing to the radio, or reading books as addicts yet people decried each of them as they became ever more popular for ruining the youth etc. People like stimulation and seem to indulge when it's new, but most people also get used to it relatively quickly.
A new Norwegian translation of the Bible was just released, and a Catholic bishop was invited to discuss the new translation. When he started to describe how phonetic similarities of words in the old Greek texts were important for how verses should be read and understood, I really got to appreciate the shortcomings of translating this kind of texts
This was my use case for bitcoin years ago when my wife and I had just got married. She is a foreigner and was finishing school, so I'd sometimes send her bitcoin instead of wire. Back then bitcoin was only worth a few hundred, and sending her a 1-3 hundred a month is what she needed. To wire 300 dollars is simply not worth it, at least back then. I'm not sure if it has changed at all now though.
Living in a poor or lower middle class outer suburb and commuting by car is slower and hundreds of dollars a month more expensive than living in the urban core and taking public transportation. I have no idea what on Earth you are talking about. Do you think everyone lives in a low density suburban sprawl where public transportation is completely impractical?

Isn't Bombardier now owned by Airbus? But you make a good point: why hasn't Embraer moved into this space?
Turn all stoplights green (not red!) at the same time. This was actually the idea of a scifi story back in the 1960s--it came out first as a short story (probably in Analog), then as a book. (FWIW, I found the short story better.)

Like many of the ideas in the book 1984, turning all the stoplights green at the same time in New York City was probably not possible in the 1960s. It is now.
You should do it! If you actually had a solution for operator overloading you'd really stand out from the other various JS deep learning libraries. Save me from pip and conda please :)

Ask HN: What's the best TV to buy in 2024?
I'm in the market for a new TV and hoping for recommendations.

Where possible, my criteria are:

- Minimal smart features, ideally not requiring an internet connection

- No tracking, or tracking that can be fully disabled

- Doesn't have to be the latest model

- Quality: I want it to have a long lifespan by TV standards

- Flexible on price, although I'd like fair value

A similar thread was posted in 2021, I'm essentially looking for an update: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29343338
I don’t know the background of the author but it reads like Christian apologetics. Understanding language is important but this entire post softens the accepted point to something more easily swallowed.

Was the Bible sexist? Or homophobic? Or whatever? Well, if you buy this persons’s book you can read their opinion of translations (which really are translations of translations of…) that make it not so. Surely god, of all people, could prevent mistranslations.

In reality, the “Word of God” was “divinely inspired” and “so easy a child can understand it”. If it says something terrible, that’s probably because it actually does. If it takes ten years of religous studies to truly understand that god wasn’t a racist genocidal maniac, then it’s also not easily understood by a child.

The "beginning of crypto" was with Bitcoin, can we agree to that?

Can we agree that Bitcoin was not claiming to "be a general platform to power distributed applications"? If you disagree, refer to the whitepaper that says "A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System".

Can we agree that before Ethereum each chain was just a fork of Bitcoin, and that the token (aka "the currency") was "sold" to others as something that would have its value determined by supply and demand, but that the blockchain had no use that was not connected to transactions related to the token? As in: fundamentally speaking, Bitcoin, Litecoin, Dogecoin, Bitcoin Gold, Bitcoin Cash... are the same?

Can we agree that Ethereum (the blockchain) enables distributed applications where people do not care at all about the price of Ether? E.g, I can host files on Storj and pay with credit card, the people hosting data are being paid in Storj's token, and everyone involved in this economy is directly using the Ethereum blockchain, but don't need to hold any Ether at all?
Non Greedy Logger – C++ Binary logger to be used for realtime logging
We have been using this for a while in random real-time applications.

Its a circular logger using memory mapped files, using xxHash for each entry as a signature.
Larger logged entries are chained.

It's using memory mapped files for writing (logger) and reading (ui), it has a UI and it's rough. It wasn't meant to be published,

-but since it served us nicely for some time, we reckon some help would be nice. It is licensed under BOOST.

Put the logging directory in tmpfs or similair.

There's a text based UI (FTXUI) included that scans the folder and real-time-ish log the data.

The UI will consume the CPU.

Sorry for my bad english, I only speak one language.

There are basically two main chips in there, one handles most of the RF chain, the other drives the display and handles button pushes. Both likely cost under a dollar each at volume. The vast majority of the other components are tiny passives that cost less than a cent each and are just for filtering and impedance matching.

In terms of development costs, there is definitely skill in component selection and packaging, but generally speaking the main PCB could have been designed by a lot of EE grads.

If you spend some time looking at it, in terms of sophistication it's barely a couple steps above a happy meal toy, but since nobody wants to make quality flexible use radios, this is what everyone ends up buying to experiment with.
It's amazing how light a setence Theranos' Elizabeth Holmes got compared to this. She may have actually killed people.

Oh, I haven't realized that the name of the book wasn't in English! It's "Des destinées de l’âme", which translates to "Of the fates of soul".

From what I've gathered it's a writer/poet/actor striken by grief who ponders about what happens after death, and about the notion of a soul, both historically (he seems to be speaking a bit about hinduism and greco-roman conceptions of a soul), philosophically, and theologically.

While this still doesn't justify the initial act of using someone skins, knowing the title in french makes it clear that there is a posthumous thematic, I haven't realized that it may not be obvious to non-french speakers.
