I guess.

It just seems like the degree of premeditation involved here would also come to the conclusion, given how over invested we are in our military, that is better to make it seem like the US is perpetually shooting itself in the foot rather than make it seems like the US has been shot. We tend to get all rambunctious when we know it was an attack, better to have us lose the war before we know we're fighting it.

When it comes to remote vehicle access I think you could do more damage carefully over the course of a decade than you could do rashly in a day.
> Imagine something as capable as a HackRF but as easy to use as an iPhone.

This is literally just a UX overhaul away for the HackRF Portapak system. As-is the UX is slightly too awkward for the casual user, but these things trend towards becoming more user friendly over time.

Honestly a Portapak with Bluetooth module and a phone app to control it would be pretty fucking cool, now that I think about it.
Performance is not an issue with Qt. He probably means the framework is too large and complicated from a developer perspective. The compiled code is fast.
Paying via Apple Pay means you have to pay Apple so that Apple will pay the vendor for you.

Any science which tries to examine the "uniqueness and strength" can't be a science unless it also tries to examine the opposite in the same way.

The fact that "field" cares about the value judgement of the result is the problem.
Now its a personal statement and something that can be expensed for WFH setups. Knowledge of $150+ keyboards was lower during the lowest-cost-to-produce membrane keyboard era and the kits to make them only started getting popular around a decade ago!
Floating wind turbines can power themselves, and therefore, as long as there is at least a little wind, and they have some small propellers on the bottom, get anywhere in the world.

That seems to make installation and maintenance super cheap - you can build them anywhere in the world, command them to sail themselves to the right place, and just have a ship come by and hook them up to the power grid in perhaps an hour per turbine.
Is the generated code correct? Was the training input code correct? Did the AI understand what you were asking? Did you specify the problem correctly, with all of the boundary conditions?

If AI programming is so good, why are there so many zero-day bugs in Windows?
Could? Sure, in an abstract sense.

What would the motivation be for someone so senior to lie on stage about this stuff? Just because he likes a programming language?

This is conspiracy style thinking.

Thankfully, if Lars is lying about this, there's tons of Google folks here on Hacker News. I haven't seen anyone yet make an actual claim with any evidence that he's not telling the truth here.
I wrote this comment:

“
Prediction: Eliezer Yudkowsky will go down as the most mind-destroying author since Karl Marx.
Another: you ask the AI genie god to do something and it annihilates humanity. Ahhhh! Air strike all the data centers!
“
and it got flagged within 15 minutes.

Seems that the AI cultists and or Marxists already are too embedded here. Perhaps it was a bit inflammatory, but I know many folks who have been utterly pwned by AI safety brainworms, and the “game” linked is the same argument we’ve seen a million times. It would be a shame if AI was the next nuclear power: a promising tech kneecapped by what are essentially religious activists.

Religious activism posing as secularism seems to be a weak spot in our collective thinking.
This seems really wise. I often want to start with something that looks decent, and feed my content into it, as opposed to trying to develop everything from scratch.

Eventually, you should probably mention this on your website: a broad range of starter projects and high quality assets, etc.
Like @fngjdflmdflg noted, years ago when i moved to linux (for personal use), I also had trouble finding a decent/similar replacement to Notepad++. I started down the Geany route, and liked it alot. It is cross-platform, not slow, has lots of themes, customization options, etc. But eventually I stopped using it, and landed on Kate. For the life of me can't recall why i moved away from Geany? I have been a user of KDE Plasma for many years, but that's not the reason why i moved to Kate, because i actually was still a user of Geany for quite a while during my use of KDE Plasma. In any case, Geany is a really solid option. Not sure that Geany is a feature-for-feature, perfect alternative for Notepad++ (but neither is my favorite Kate editor either!)...nevertheless, the rare times when people ask me for recommendation of text editors on linux (or cross-platform with the intent of using the same editor on all their OSes), I often stick to suggesting Geany or Kate. And, then of course, if they're exclusively Windows users i then suggest either Notepad++ or Geany Kate - not necessarily in any order.

(For the Windows machines that my dayjobs issue me, I still use Notepad++ since funny enough that is easier to allow then requesting to install Kate! Corporate world be getting all strict on software installations nowadays - yikes!)
All we’re doing is engineering new data compression and retrieval techniques: https://arxiv.org/abs/2309.10668

Are we sure there’s anything “net new” to find within the same old x86 machines, within the same old axiomatic systems of the past?

Math is a few operations applied to carving up stuff and we believe we can do that infinitely in theory. So “all math that abides our axiomatic underpinnings” is valid regardless if we “prove it” or not.

Physical space we can exist in, a middle ground of reality we evolved just so to exist in, seems to be finite; I can’t just up and move to Titan or Mars. So our computers are coupled to the same constraints of observation and understanding as us.

What about daily life will be upended reconfirming decades old experiment? How is this not living in sunk cost fallacy?

Fedora Workstation 40 – what are we working on
Oh yeah! I totally forgot about Intel's on-chip AI acceleration[1]. I'm not sure how well it works, but I know that it exists and nothing major is currently taking advantage of it AFAIK.

Local Copilot sounds interesting, but I'd imagine it would be akin to the old Siri on iPhones where its use would be limited to controlling on-device settings. I've heard and read quite a lot about the dangers of that, though: with prompt injections being an issue with Copilot[0] (and Bing Chat frequently going crazy[2]), I can understand why Microsoft are very hesitant to give it any real control over the system.

Suspect heart attack--you head to the hospital pronto. The trial involves injecting the drug immediately, then going to the hospital. The placebo arm gets exactly the same treatment everyone would get now--rush to the hospital. This drug is purely about trying to keep the heart alive long enough to reach the hospital. A hospital with a cath lab is a far better treatment than this drug--but you can't put that in your pocket.
this is like a lot of tech "philanthropists" they're always ABOUT to do something nice. There's nothing ever stopping them from doing some volunteer work. But first the millions must be made. It's like borrowing good will on credit that's never paid back.

The severity of the rains brought by El Niño is related to climate change, and the rains themselves are the causal reason for the increase in black pod disease.

We've had plenty of El Niño in the past, but no such extreme spikes.

Once again, it seems that people who don't want to see climate change will not see it no matter how striking the evidence.
I don't understand this attitude on HN. Crypto is here to stay and not every coin is the same. BTC cracked $70,000.00 this month. I remember buying it at $6.00 in '09.
I just ordered one too, just because of the hackability. (I will likely never transmit with it, since I already have a radio with a better radio.)
>the money ended up all being there, but it was so scattered that it's taken all this time to find it.

This is explicitly not the case. The new management has not found hundreds of millions (billions) in cryptocurrency assets. Some other assets have surged in value and that may allow FTX to make some customers "whole" (meaning, they will not lose much money in an environment where otherwise maybe they would have strongly profited), but this isn't the same thing.

I use it all the time to mangle small amounts of data, like selecting all the newlines in a file with cntrl-d and making them into "," to make it into values for an array or something (obv. search+replace could do that, still it's quicker for a small number this way, or feels like it). It was pretty slick in the early TextMate / Sublime days to see people editing html and making a big bunch of tags all write themselves out simultaneously.
Oh, yeah no in this case you tap ahead of making the transaction. Maybe it preauths a certain amount? But.. I've made purchases of like $350 with Apple Pay, maybe more.
> you pay for the rewards ...

No, I don't pay for the rewards on my premium rewards credit card.

For the most part, my rewards are paid for by everyone else who doesn't have a premium rewards credit card.

Premium rewards cards cost merchants a lot more to accept than regular credit cards and debit cards.

Rewards cards: 5% to 10% of total volume with swipe fees of 2.5% to 4.0%

Regular credit cards: 30% to 40% of total volume with swipe fees of 1.5% to 2.5%

Debit cards: 50% to 60% of total volume with swipe fees of 0.5%

Yes, merchants build their payment costs into the prices of their products, but they generally don't charge different prices depending on what card the customer uses.

So the majority of the population that doesn't qualify for a premium rewards card is effectively paying more for everything to subsidize the more wealthy people at the top.
Finally a take I agree with. The victims here are IMHO victims of their own greed. They wanted all the reward of putting money into unprotected and unregulated schemes and now many cry that the risks didn't go their way.

It doesn't make SBF less of a criminal but it does make the victims less victimised.
The article talks about programming boundaries into an AI, rather than its answers being influenced by the corpus it ingests and interprets.
Seeing a Path to Nerve Regeneration
If you replace the bias that it is "bad" with the bias that it is "good" you have achieved exactly nothing.

Medicine considers disorders which are "bad" because it wants to help. A disorder which people do not consider "bad" is automatically ignored by medicine.
Advocates and activists are almost never the majority. People who agree with the advocates, though? In this case, my search engine says they seem to be. https://www.pewresearch.org/global/2021/09/14/in-response-to... https://www.pewresearch.org/global/2020/09/09/despite-pandem...

Recent polls suggest that opposition to climate change has decreased in the US in the past few years, but it's still just about a majority (and a clear bipartisan majority, if you only count under-30s). https://www.pewresearch.org/science/2022/07/14/americans-div...

Do you have a reason to believe otherwise? We all have a tendency to think our views are more common than they are (unless we're, like, being heckled for them in the streets): maybe the people in your local area are disproportionately opposed to anti-climate-change action?
No, that's not how it works at all. Apple is neither in the authorization nor the transaction clearing/settlement flow.

> How do you pay Apple without giving them a secret?

Credit cards being effectively unrestricted bearer tokens isn't nearly the only way to do payments. For example you could send a signed message to your bank instructing them to pay Apple (in a world in which you'd be paying them; again, Apple Pay is not that).

It's not "FUD" to just call something what it is.

Millions have lost money due to this pyramid / ponzi scheme, and people like you trying to justify it with nonsense ad hominems.

It is well documented that crypto absolutely has no legitimate use case whatsoever that works better than the current system other than speculation, ransomware, etc.

So it is just as simple as to say the fact that:

Most people don't own individual stocks. So their audience just pictures top hat wearing capitalists when they hear stock buybacks. It's the same reason why tenants garner sympathy while landlords are quickly called slumlords.

Show HN: Signmeup.ai – A simple tool for creating signup pages quickly
Ah, well I guess it just comes down to one's ability to read between lines, I guess. More specifically, the ability to read for the writer's intent rather than what is plainly there. I was just trying to come up for a nicer explanation to people that seem to know a lot more about medicine and medical terms than me being so confused by the title.
Queues and workflow engines aren’t the right solution for everything, but they work well for a lot of stuff. Like a signup flow that integrates with multiple third-parties, or a drip campaign, or notifications.

Those are things many small, all developer teams need. They don’t want to hire an infra-minded person just for queues and workflows
I wish society would stop viewing punishment as a tool for the greater good, whether as revenge or as something that will "correct" the criminal.

Treating it as a correction feels like a lie that polite society tells itself in order to absolve itself of the distaste of knowingly harming someone. We shouldn't pretend we can "re-educate" anyone. We can merely provide opportunities for self improvement, but we can't actively "correct" them.

On the other hand, treating punishment as revenge is unhealthy too. It's too easy to get carried away and it's even easier to get carried away by perverse incentives (gestures broadly at US incarceration rates). Two wrongs don't make a right, as they say.

So then how should society decide what punishment is fair? I believe the punishment should be as harsh as an elected judge feels is necessary for the perpetrator to think, "it wasn't worth this"—and not a bit more.

Isn't that using punishment as a deterrent? It's easy to see it that way, but no. That would make punishment impersonal again— unbinding it from the specific person, place, and circumstance that we should elect judges to consider carefully and compassionately. In other words, when one says, "the perpetrator should be punished {this much} to deter the others", then the perpetrator becomes a pawn, not a person.

All that leads me to believe that: the purpose of a punishment should be to inflict a harm equal to the perceived personal benefit of the perpetrator's crime, as an enforcement action of the social contract between the perpetrator and society.

FWIW looks like people are getting access now.
Recidivism was something I wondered about for a second, but I think it is not what we’re looking for. I think the theory of deterrence is specifically that punishing crimes harshly will make other members of society less willing to commit crimes. Recidivism is a failure of rehabilitation, not deterrence, right?

It also seems like the population of ex-criminals couldn’t be representative of the population as a whole, right?

(FWIW I think the theory of deterrence is probably not correct, I can’t prove a negative, but the burden of proof lies at the feet of people who suggesting it I think).

These are federal charges, not state. In the federal prison system, you do almost all your time, with just a small percentage knocked off the end of your sentence if you maintain consistent good behavior. State justice systems do have a tendency to let prisoners out early for various different reasons but when you get a federal sentence, you're serving almost all of it.

I see, I agree with you. But I would imagine the useful metric to be “error rate below X GB memory”. We really just need memory and/or compute reported when these evaluations are performed to compile that. People do it for training reports since compute and memory is implicit based on training time (since people saturate it and report what hardware they’re using). But for inference no such details :\
Ask HN: How do I improve my emotional intelligence?

To fix this, I am looking for a book that is what “The mom test” is to customer discovery, but to Emotional Intelligence. What I mean by this is a book that actually contains suggestions of what to say, word by word, and how to be able to think and articulate what the other person might come to think. Any suggestions?
