If you want to lose weight then consume less calories than your body burns. It really is that simple. Yeah, you probably won't be comfortable, but that's the trick to losing weight. You could do it eating nothing but Twinkies, you won't be healthy, but your weight will drop.

Surprised to see that this article mentioned "portion" or "serving" a total of zero times. That's the trick with cereal. Taking cocoa puffs as an example, 50g of them is 200 calories. 50g is probably 4 spoonful's (no source just my opinion).. very little, if you just pour an amount that looks good to you into your bowl, yeah it's going to easily add up to an 800 calorie meal when you add milk.

I would agree that it's deceptive, but you can't blame them for making you fat. All the information you need is right there on the label. This is just for managing weight, getting proper micro and macro nutrients takes a little more research.
Some kind of Malus floribunda probably, but check also the plum Prunus cerasifera pisardii for comparison, and the serviceberry.

Cydonia oblonga has bigger flowers and in some way can remind dogwoods or even some magnolias when in blossom.
Cisco was a very similar situation actually. Lots of "routers" out there (way more than other brands making GPUs), but the cisco stuff just "worked" in corporate environments and had the best interop with the rest of the network.

Ultimately though people figured out the other stuff and while cisco is still very popular for core routers they are no longer the only reasonable option.

The stock has only just now recovered 25 years later from the .com crash.
Show HN: gpt-cache – A OSS proxy cache to save on GPT tokens and response times
Dramatically cut down on token usage and speed up response times by up to 130x. A blend of Python and Go leverages the FAISS library for semantic similarity detection, ensuring cache hits are as accurate as they are fast. Easy to run with docker!

Still very much a work in progress... would appreciate feedback and/or contributors!
Outlets are standardized and not specific to EVs. If you mean the charge plug, that's different.

Assuming you're in the US/Canada or other country with 100-120v service, a standard wall socket is sufficient for many full EV users and plenty enough for a PHEV which has a much smaller battery. Think about how much time your car spends sitting in your driveway/garage...and if you don't get a full charge, so what? The engine kicks in.

The wiring gauge is good for a certain current. That affects what sort of plug is installed in the wall, as they're keyed according to current limits. The EVSE can be programmed to not exceed the appropriate current, which is 80% of the breaker's rating.

If it was wired for an EV, it's almost certainly not 100-120v but 208 or higher, in which case even if it's a 15A circuit, that's definitely enough for a PHEV and sufficient for charging all but the largest EVs practically overnight.

A 208v, 15A circuit is good for 2.5kW. If you get home at 7PM and go to work at 7AM, you'll be able to charge 25kWhr each night, roughly. Average EV efficiency is about .35kWh/mile, so that's sufficient for 70 miles of driving.
This was almost exactly my last UK rental car experience - something like 4 hours north (380 miles). For some reason I booked an electric car first, and then saw sense and changed my mind.

People claim that the UK is covered in chargers - but all the big ones seemed to be at least about 20 mins off of the motorway, then waiting to charge, then driving back to the motorway (burning up the charge to get there and back). On my holiday too, there's a long list of things I'd rather be doing.

I was there last week too (not driving) and I saw so many 'chargers' in public car parks that were just either covered up or needed some specific app to work - no way to use a credit card.

The whole thing is improving and if you had a house in which you could fit a proper charger then owning an electric car wouldn't be too bad, but actually renting one and driving it on a long trip - no way. It's not specifically the UK either, I'd say the same for most places I've been in and had a need to rent a car.

LLM Task-Specific Evals That Do and Don't Work
Seems like a lot of this could be solved with a whitelist of trusted dependencies.

There are already lots of groups maintaining internal lists and analysis of dependencies they trust. If there was a platform for reporting safety, rather than reporting vulnerability, one could say "Only allow packages that someone from a fortune 500 company publish an analysis of".
I feel like I haven't seen PWA's in a while. Are there any you recommend as feeling like native apps?
How will you compete if GitHub talks to the Azure folks (who have the benefit of Azure scale) and gets better compute and network treatment for runners? Or is the assumption GH running remains perpetually stunted as described (which is potentially a fair and legit assumption to make based on MS silos and enterprise inertia)?

To be clear, this is a genuine question, as compute (even when efficiently orchestrated and arbitraged) is a commodity. Your cache strategy is good (will be interested in testing to tease out where is S3 and where is Ceph), but not a moat and somewhat straightforward to replicate.

(again, questions from a place of curiosity, nothing more)
Iran could be our allies overnight if they stopped their nuclear weapons program. The Iraq invasion wouldn't have happened if Saddam opened up the country to UN weapons inspectors, NK could reunify or be an ally if they stopped huffing jenkem. A lot of our enemies could have avoided it, even if they lost a bit of pride in the process. Religious zeal is more dangerous than capitalism, IMO.
Oh nice, I had the same idea.

Ask HN: Protective Puts for Equity Compensation?
How risky is it to buy protective puts on your equity compensation (for publicly traded companies)?

I've heard companies sometimes have a clause in employment agreements against options trading in company stock. I also understand there's some risk of getting hit for insider trading. I just can't imagine either of these issues coming into play if you're quiet, keep your head down, and avoid insider information.

Seems like a smart deal: Pay a few percent of your equity compensation to lock in your compensation package for your 1st year or until next quarter.
Education, data analysis and coding are applications showing real benefits, especially as supplementaries to the existing practices.

I think spam is a problem that will be fixed due to it's importance. There are real potential uses of blockchain technology here. I'm super interested in how the banking system KYC stack could be used in conjunction with NFTs to provide proof of factual claims.
JIT engines are fundamentally unsafe since they would produce unsafe machine code directly. And for performance sake the runtime should use tactical unsafe. So memory safety is definitely still something to worry about, even if it's less likely to occur in my experience

I'm not defending it. I'm putting blame where it belongs, on the perpetrator. No one in Israel asked for war. Lots in Gaza did.

When a woman defends herself from rape by stabbing the rapist I don't say, "She caused him more damage!" I blame the rapist.

Not everyone wants war and that's sad that people are caught in it. But Israel isn't at fault, any more than that woman. Hamas is firing from behind innocents. They have to kill innocent people to survive, typically. You can help them by eliminating their need to do it, or you can blame the victim.

Those are your options whether you like it or not. Just like they are Israel's options whether they like them or not.
That's called self-hosting, and it's widely used in JS runtimes to implement various built-ins instead of writing them in C++. It provides superior safety and the ability to inline builtins into their callers.

Yes that’s basically the RAG pattern, but I’ve edited my comment to elaborate a bit. I’m questioning what the LLM brings to the table vs just showing the search results (a long list not limited by context length) to the user.

The LLM doesn’t even get the full docs most of the time, just chunks. It has a very narrow view so its full power is not used.
It is good strategy. Just don't get caught lying about it
Flimsy:

- You are arguing how big the container ship is,

- It only emphasizes how weak the bridge is compared to the ship and obviously to all ships going through this harbor.

Obviously the bridge is not flimsy compared to mere thousands of cars, but when it’s a bumper on the side of the regular path of herds of 200 elephants of about 1000x the normal size ten times a day, then yes, it’s flimsy.

If you see a sign “Forbidden to elephants” tomorrow on your city’s preferred pedestrian bridge, it’s me. Now I wonder why your politicians didn’t put it for the bridge. It’s simple: The port should pay for dolphins and all security measures, or only sailboats will be allowed.

So yes, you arguing the size of the ship only emphasizes the flimsiness of the contraption.
You can! The default is that we launch the runners on our AWS account, but we do also have a bring-your-own-cloud deployment option.

We have some docs on this for our container builder product - still need to write the docs for Actions runners too, though they use the same underlying system: https://depot.dev/docs/self-hosted/overview.
The parent comment said "Tesla doesn't believe in PR". It's clear that Tesla does in fact believe in PR judging by all of Elon's related activities, they just do it differently than other companies.

Also, look at website content like this: https://www.tesla.com/about

That is PR, regardless of whether you want to call the people doing it "PR" or not.
That's correct, but they are (probably) human, which is pivotal to the application of copyright law.
Remember: there is no such thing as a free lunch.

If they're rewarding you with something, either you or someone else is paying for it. Someone else, in this case, means another cardholder. Maybe the merchant the rewards program is through is counting on you to spend on something you otherwise wouldn't. Sure as hell isn't the bank offering the card.

Are you using plandex to write improvements to plandex?
OK should have read your original comment more closely. I missed "interest only" on the first read.

But even on a traditional mortgage, in the early years the vast majority of the payment is interest. How much lower is the monthly payment on an interest-only loan? Are they easier to qualify for? Are the rates the same, or higher than, a traditional mortgage?

I'm not sure I'd want to ban types of financing for types of properties, that seems heavy-handed.
Another approach is to take the user query, have the LLM guess the answer and use that guessed answer for the RAG step.
That is a very fair take, but I do like the variations that folks put on this ideas even if they arent new.

I mean these were probably the first guys to be reasoning with an AI powered bomb about the meaning of life and empiricism. A fresh take on an old idea.
>In other words, no operations were affected or compromised here.

How do you know this? Did you check it with the NSA, or Cyber Command, or the CIA, or literally anyone before running your "attack"? Will they confirm this discussion? If you're going to make the claim of truly being on the US side of the Pacific theater, it'd be nice to have a little concrete evidence of such. I don't particularly care what vulns you use at all; what I care about is that you're wise enough with any of them to not push us into the tragedy of the commons for your own short-term gain. (For similar reasons I also do not particularly care what someone who passed beneath the intelligence ceiling for writing in wired magazine has to say about you. This is like a university professor trying to claim an interview in the campus student paper as a citation of their work.)

In the 90s, RentAWreck at least used to be part of an operation called FixAWreck who did low cost auto repairs. I used them shortly after I'd moved and had an excellent time with the two sub-compacts they gave me while my car was in their shop.
I’ve worked in scaled enterprise search, both with lexical (lucene based, eg elastic search) & semantic search engines (vector retrieval).

Vector retrieval that isn’t contextualized in the domain is usually bad (RAG solutions call this “naive rag” … and make up for it with funky chunking and retrieval ensembles). Training custom retrievers and reranker is often key but quite an effort and still hard to generalize in a domain with broad knowledge.

Lexical based searching provides nice guarantees and deterministic control in results (depending on how you index). Certainly useful here is advanced querying capability. Constructing/enriching queries with transformers is cool.

Reranking is often nice ensemble additions, albeit can be done with smaller models.

Something like this really needs a robust privacy policy answering questions like:

- will my photo be used to train your recommendation algorithm?

- how long will my photo be retained for?
This is unlikely to be the central factor, given that Norway, one of the few inhabited places which is colder than Maine, has the highest rate of electric car ownership in the world.

That's in spite of the range issue, and is due to the Norwegian government carrot-and-sticking heavily towards electric. Maine has no such incentives, and is sparsely populated, which doesn't play to the strengths of electric cars.

I'm not singing the praises of the JVM here, it's just a simple fact that if you implement your runtime in a higher level language you're exposed to a smaller number of potential vulnerabilities. Unchecked array dereferences turn into bounds-checked array dereferences; unchecked typecasts turn into checked typecasts. Null pointer dereferences turn into null reference exceptions. Etc.

Of course once you start jitting native code, all of that is off the table. Unless you jit to java/.net bytecode, I guess.

I read The Fifth Season and hated it, but she's definitely a real author. I'd be interested if she has any other books that I might like better.

My main problems with the story were:
- The setting was almost unspeakably brutal, but there seemed to be almost no one interested in fighting those brutal systems. I could understand 1-2 characters being brainwashed to go along with the brutality, or even most, but no one seems to even attempt to go against the system. This made the setting feel unbelievable to me.

- There are two big twists at the end of the book. I won't spoil them, but they didn't feel like well-foreshadowed twists. The timelines for the different chapters weren't clear, which made it hard to guess the first, and the 'clues' felt like bad writing mistakes. For the second, the only clue is what words people don't say.

The plot also hinges on a misunderstanding of how tsunamis work, but that's forgivable to me.
> but the 80GB A100s server GPUs definitely are

I'm sure LLMs were considered, like many other ML use cases, but that A100 was intended for LLMs? I'm unsure about that.

A100 was released the same year as GPT3, and it wasn't until GPT3 went live that people really started pay attention. Then I'm sure designing and producing a GPU takes a longer time than a couple of months.
An existentially unfulfilled life can be as much of a prison or torture as any physical illness. Treatment resistant depression also can cause great suffering. If I were in the condition of disability that denied living a full life, I would also contemplate an orderly shuffling off of this mortal coil. The problem now is that having raised a taboo personal right, the knee-jerk clinical patronizing automatic response is to provide therapy, counseling, and mood altering medications perhaps up to and including involuntary treatment without informed consent. They then become caught in a Catch-22 that does not prioritize an individual's wishes.
In a tech-crazed era where the boundaries of reality blur with the audacity of innovation, there unfolds a tale so bewildering, it vaults past the edges of conventional disruption into the realm of the utterly surreal. This isn't just another yarn spun from the looms of Silicon Valley's grand dream factories. No, this saga pirouettes on the razor's edge of imagination and insanity, where the most cutting-edge "AI" in retail isn't AI at all—it's the keen eyes and quick wits of Pakistanis, stationed a world away, orchestrating the illusion of machine precision in real-time.

Let's zoom in on Lahore, pulsating with life and a fervor for innovation that makes Silicon Valley look like a retirement home for tired tech. Here, in a place that hums with the energy of endless possibility (and perhaps too much caffeine), sits the command center of the world's most "advanced" computer vision system, SeeAll. Only, SeeAll's vision is purely human, powered by a legion of sharp-eyed annotators who scrutinize live feeds from grocery store checkouts, identifying every item with the accuracy and flair only a human can muster.

The masterminds behind this grand ruse? VisioTech, a company shrouded in the mystique of technological advancement, promising a checkout experience free from human error, barcodes, and the tedium of waiting. Their secret sauce wasn't algorithmic; it was organic, brainpower fueled by chai and an undying spirit of camaraderie.

This narrative, though dripping with the trappings of high-tech, is really an ode to the human element in the digital age. Customers, awash in the glow of seamless transactions, never questioned the "how" of their flawless shopping experience, unaware that the real magic lay in the hands of the PaaS team. This crew, capable of identifying the most obscure products with a glance, operated in a symphony of clicks and keystrokes, a ballet of productivity that no machine could replicate.

The facade crumbled when a technical hiccup at an Ohio grocery store exposed the gears behind the magic. What followed was a tumultuous unraveling that laid bare VisioTech's elaborate scheme. Yet, the fallout was anything but predictable. The world, instead of recoiling in outrage, leaned in, captivated by the audacity and sheer inventiveness of it all.
Picking up Swift in 2024 seems like a bit of a sucker move if I’m honest.

A language that only runs on a tiny fraction of hardware, has crappy documentation, has poor interoperability, a questionable developer toolchain that only runs on one platform and then to top it off anything you want to release with it basically has to go through an extortion racket where the worlds richest company is going to take 30% of your revenue and has the ability to shut you down at any point, for any reason and provides no meaningful recourse.

Honestly it’s a terrible choice.

Except that 100% of the cost isn't being transferred to the cardholder, either. You might have a 1% cash back card while the merchant is paying 3%. If only half of the cost is being passed on, you're still losing money. And price isn't the only variable. Even if the merchant ate the entire 3%, that might require them to cut costs in some way so you receive a lower quality product, or drive some competitors out of business and thereby allow the remaining companies to reduce quality without lowering prices because the company providing a better product for the same price was eliminated by the fees.
