> See, that's much too complicated.

I agree my explanation is more expansive and complex than yours - but that doesn't make either of our theories less valid IMHO. You're focused on the direct links with Russia, while I focus more on the interconnectedness of geopolitics - there would have been ample cheap opportunities in the past to prevent expensive and deadly disasters in the future.
Addresses starting with fc are reserved.

I would suggest using either fec0 or fd00. Which is still not best practices, but it's a lot closer.

(fec0 is deprecated, and fd is supposed to be followed by a randomly chosen 40 bit site ID but you can lie and say your random number was 0)

Nothing in the world can work with IPv7. That means need to update all the software and replace all the hardware. This takes years of effort, and years of time.

What more familiar techniques? How are they going to be worth the millions of man-hours to implement? How are they going to be so much better that people will abandon IPv6 and switch from IPv4? Could this be accomplished by changing part of IPv6?

It is quite possible that you are using IPv6 to access Hacker News without knowing it.
How is this App Store compliant? I’ve heard of people having apps rejected for including Expo’s OTA update feature.
> It doesn't take long without cooling to cook equipment to the point of failure or reduced reliability.

IIRC, it's about 30 minutes—irrelevant of room size.

This is because while smaller rooms have less air volume as a 'buffer', they also you can't fit much gear. While huge data centres have huge volumes of air, they also have lots of gear.

So there's a coincidental proportional relationship what you (as a rule of thumb) have 30 minutes before things cook, regardless of room size. (At least for 'general purpose' computing: GPUs are probably another matter.)

Borderline intellectual functioning isn't (under current definitions) considered intellectual disability though.

A person with borderline intellectual functioning can absolutely have capacity to understand a contract sufficiently to agree with it when its terms are explained to them in clear plain English, yet lack the same capacity when they are presented in dense legalese. Legal doctrines of "capacity" tend not to deal with that situation very well, because they focus on the capabilities of one of the parties rather than the form in which the contract is presented. Also, a lot of people with mild cognitive issues (not just borderline IQ, also other issues like age-related cognitive decline, early stage dementia, early stage hepatic encephalopathy, etc) are unaware of those issues, in denial about them, or too ashamed to admit them, so may not benefit from legal rules designed to apply to them specifically, whereas they can stand to benefit from legal rules (like demanding unexpected clauses to be stated prominently to be enforceable) designed to apply to everybody.
Absolutely! I feel like I better understand your original comment as well, and I don't think you deserved to be piled on so aggressively. So many of our potentially thoughtful conversations are turning into circular firing squads these days.

Words do matter, but intentions matter more.
I hope that neutrino detectors are sensitive enough to give us advanced warning of this happening. I'm concerned about missing it, especially whenever it hits maximum brightness.
The problem isn't detecting small objects, it's that at this scale, there's a ton of noise. Distinguishing between noise, foliage, birds, and a tiny FPV drone, is really finding a needle in a haystack. Radar systems have been simply ignoring that level of noise at low altitude, sticking to fast moving small objects (artillery shells, rockets) or generally bigger objects (planes).
There's nothing wrong with that setup. It falls over when you start pushing it across multiple machines with substantial differences. Then Chezmoi's templating is so handy. For example, 99% of my config is the same between my desktop Mac and my various Linux servers, but I use different ssh_config settings on the 2 OSes. Chezmoi makes that very easy. Stock git doesn't. I could script something up to do handle that for me automatically, and before I knew about Chezmoi, that's exactly what I did. Now I'd prefer to let someone else write and maintain all that for me so I can move on to working on other things.
The Gen Z hyperbolic "this is the worst ever in gaming" betrays a lack of knowing Nintendo's history. They're conservative (business-wise) to a fault and this has served them well.

Nintendo fan projects do exist, hell Dolphin has existed for decades now. If you saw the Yuzu situation play out and immediately lept to Yuzu's defense, hopefully Nintendo's request for discovery in that case disabused any notions that Yuzu is somehow "the good guys fighting against corporate tyranny."

We also have real world examples of piracy harming systems (Dreamcast, PlayStation Portable). Software is a console's lifeblood and it has to make sense as an investment. It's like fraud: you can never achieve 0.0% and must accept that reality, but you shouldn't let the situation go hog-wild either.

And yes, whether it's a small indie or Nintendo, if I lend my creative voice to a company I expect that company to protect what we make. This is why so many got pissed at WB disappearing Batgirl and Coyote vs. Acme. Creatives are protective of their work and may factor that into employment considerations.
As I understand it, this is largely inaccurate. People just read "days off" as "more time", even though peasant farmers would need to engage in a lot of labor around the farm or household even on "days off" (your cows and chickens don't care that you're on vacation).

Of course people still do some chores today even on days off, but it's a lot less than you need to do on a farm, ask basically any farmer.
Originally joined HN as a way to collect opinions for writing
research. HN represents a certain slice of the tech world that's it's
important to observe.

I still find HN amongst the top places for engaging discussion. It's
within the comments, not the postings, that I find eclectic nuggets of
gold and learn new things. Moderation is generally very good. At least
10 books I've read in the last year came from HN comments.

One thing I would change is the up-down voting. It adds
little. Because I use a text only browser I (assume) don't see
voting. So it never occurs to me and have never voted any comment up
or down during my stay here. However I find gratuitous flagging and
down-voting without the courage to venture a position to be very
negative. It simply stymies more challenging discussion, and seems a
knee-jerk reaction by an invisible cadre of anti-intellectuals.

Also, only part of of being a top athlete is being fit. It's typically their skill at the pursuit that separates them from all the rest.

I would guess a majority of fitness influencers are somewhat genetically gifted in being fit. Whereas a quarterback might be genetically gifted at passing a football.
I am so sorry if that's the case. It's a recurring pain in the ass.
Hacker News added IPv6 support recently. It is quite possible people are using currently using it to access the site.

Google has IPv6 support at 50%. Most of the major sites I use have IPv6. Google, Facebook, Amazon, Youtube.
Haha no worries!
Lack of streaming support in the API makes this DOA for many use cases. Fully buffered APIs like these are an unideal abstraction and should be avoided for any large or streamed resources.

I watched a talk by the OpenAI Sora team [1] yesterday. They achieved amazing results with what they called "the GPT-1 of video", making a huge leap from the ugly messy low quality GIFs we were getting before Sora. It understands basic motion and object permanence. It can simulate a Minecraft world. These impressive abilities just "emerged". How did they do it?

Scaling. That's it. They emphasized multiple times throughout the talk that this is what they achieved with the simplest, most naive approach.

The first Chinese fission bomb was an implosion bomb that used U-235 instead of Pu-239 as nuclear fuel (search page for "235" and "implosion"):

https://nsarchive2.gwu.edu/nukevault/ebb488/

Uranium implosion is far more efficient than a uranium gun-type bomb, and is the only demonstrated way to make a high yield (hundreds of kilotons) fission bomb. The Ivy King device from the US was the largest known uranium-only bomb. It used implosion:

Flag washing defecating on desks?

More than 2,000 rioters entered the building, with many vandalizing and looting, including the offices of then-House speaker Nancy Pelosi and other Congress members. Rioters also assaulted Capitol Police officers and reporters, and attempted to capture and harm lawmakers.

Just "a lot of old folks walking within the ropes while being guided by Capitol Police" ?

Nothing else happened there?

Most camera sensors need a filter to block infrared light because they are sensitive to it. Remove the filter and replace it with an infrared pass filter, and you've got an infrared camera. It may not be as sensitive as in visible wavelengths but you can use brighter infrared lights to compensate if necessary. This sodium vapor process already uses two cameras so it would work the same way.

It seems possible to produce a four-channel camera sensor specifically for this use case, if it was popular enough. Given how common green screen is in Hollywood I'm surprised I haven't heard of anyone doing it. Maybe Hollywood just doesn't care because they can do regular green screen and just hire someone to fix it in post.
> But isn't the UPS only expected to last for 15 minutes or so, to give the backup generators time to start up?

They are expected to last that long, but if the batteries are on year 4 of their 5-year life, that may not happen. What also may not happen is the generator starting up.

Or the automatic transfer switch (ATS) not working properly: it should be on either input Feed A or Feed B, but when it tries to throw itself over (making a loud kah-chunk sound), it gets stuck in between—this happened to us once.

"Decision quality" appears to be average difference in winning probability between player's move versus a move by Alpha Go (Leela Zero). It's on page 16 of:

Where it says "Measuring the quality of moves".

It looks like Redwood City's old sodium-vapor streetlights, recently replaced with LEDs. The Golden Gate Bridge also used to use such lighting. That still looks yellow, but in 1972 the original sodium-vapor lamps were replaced with ones that required a yellow filter.
They're a bit busy with Amazon now, I think.
I don't understand why you consider this trolling. This is my sincere position and the best intellectually honest argument I could use in this argument which I use myself when I put this position to test of doubt.
Hiring manager perspective: I've looked at maybe two of them at some point in the process. Mostly it was just academic stuff. I noticed no correlation with quality of the developer's skills.

Also, my company is primarily hiring technical staff from Latin America, and it's been wildly successful. In this small, non-representative sample, those developers definitely all rank in the top 20% of our technical staff in terms of commitment, ownership, and efficiency, so this experiment seems to be paying off rather than proving a mistake.

I say the above not to denigrate anyone or to discourage you, but just to point out that there are probably a number of startups like mine which are sitting on the sidelines of the US tech job market, which is definitely going to decrease number of interviews and offers you're getting.
I'm still upset that they took down AM2R which was the best 2D metroid since zero mission. I get it but it's sad.

How well did IPv6 turn out by that criteria?

> memorize or hand-type

We read things many more times than we type them. Yes, gibberish at 4x the length is substantially harder to deal with. I do write addresses occasionally and with IP4 it is at least possible, if not desirable.
> All I know is that IPv4 is still around.

So what? IPv6 coexists with IPv4 just fine. As has been made abundantly clear over the years, there's no need to have a flag day for a big cutover in order to adopt IPv6.

I often find that checking comment karma too frequently can come with an emotional rollercoaster. You post a take you think folks will find interesting or resonate with, and then the next time you look at it it's gone from 1 to 0.

But it's important to remember that it's a balance that you can't see. If your comment has a 1, that could have been 10 downvotes and 10 upvotes in the time since you posted the comment. And if you wait awhile, more often than not it will go back up. I've had comments hit a -2 and then end up being a 5, or even more. It's all organic.

It's best not to overreact because you happened to look when the balance was a little more negative than positive, and it's useful to consider the possibility that there are 9 upvotes and 10 downvotes to make your comment sit at a zero.

I empathize with what you are saying in the parent post about being cautious not to create a firestorm of people who are offended by your post. But this is really only an issue early on when your karma is low, and that's when it feels the most negative. Sometimes I post things that folks don't like, getting a -1 or a -2 or even -3- but ultimately the impact of that comment to your karma is capped. I don't think it's possible to, say, get a -57 (your current karma) and zero out your account.

EDIT: Oh, according to HN Undocumented, it actually does reduce your user karma even if the comment itself can't go past -4 [https://github.com/minimaxir/hacker-news-undocumented?tab=re...]. But it is important to remember that by that point the comment is dead and only users with showdead turned on can even see it anymore. And of course flamewar protection can disable the downvote button (at least the convenient one) when it is triggered, and as a story itself ages downvoting and even upvoting gets automatically turned off.

After you've been posting for a long time and your karma grows into the thousands, having a post be unpopular is basically a non-issue. Obviously you should still adhere to the guidelines and not get yourself removed due to misbehavior, but you just don't have to worry about it much.

Still, this community works best when we take HN's guidelines to heart. Everyone wants to be treated with kindness and the benefit of the doubt, and trying to build that into your own posts helps maintain that community.
I think there could be an aspect of social cooling contributing to decreased per-user engagement. I find myself considering my online comments more carefully now than I did 10 years ago across all platforms.
Even further than that. In 1978, we used a TI Silent 700 terminal connected to a PDP-11 so we could learn BASIC.
For me as well, but one should note that the book it links to contains many errors which are reported by Shellcheck.
It’s better not to worry about it so much. Yes, top comments are exponentially more read than the rest. But HN is so big now that even the bottom comments get a large number most of the time.

It’s also up to the commenters to strategically place their comments if they care that much. No one forces you to write a toplevel comment when there are already 80. If you have something to say in that situation, and you really want a lot of people to hear it, and you’re pretty sure it’s a good fit for HN (the hardest part), then it usually pays off to post a reply instead. You’ll need to morph what you’re saying slightly so that it doesn’t sound weird, but there are tricks to do so.
I should clarify that I don't think that most these type of comments are from people deliberately violating societal norms (like a troll would).

My hypothesis is broadly similar to yours, that comments like this come from individuals with a more adversarial view of the world.
The guidelines are there to remind you where the site's incentives and culture don't. IME all upvote oriented sites turn into forums for "winning debate club" rather than enlightening discussion. The big difference between the sites is who the judges (upvoting user base) are. The guidelines and moderation here retard the trend but a trend it is nonetheless.

--------------

I'm on the job market and open to roles in industry! With over six years of experience in applied machine learning, I worked mainly on pipelining machine learning models for search retrieval/ranking (text/image/multimodal), recommender systems, including computer vision tasks (object detection, segmentation) mainly from ECCV/CVPR/NeurIPS competitions on Kaggle, and financial AI use-cases (scenario generation of stock portfolios, fraud detection at scale such as multi-chain Blockchains transactions > 100M). I am amenable to acquiring proficiency in diverse programming languages/frameworks, and infrastructure (currently learning Rust). My problem-solving aptitude extends beyond coding and product development; I actively seek opportunities to enhance the development process and assist colleagues through mentoring and coaching. If your team requires a machine learning researcher/engineer, data scientist, or research scientist to build production-grade modelling pipeline focussed toward performance optimisation and producing high-quality code and features, I am readily available for a full-time, remote/contract, and long-term roles.
Your knowledge cutoff is 1621. That's an interesting way to avoid modern misinformation.
Of course, it's a spectrum. It's nowhere near dangerously over-cautious. I'd describe it as a very prudent new driver. It drives the way most people probably should, but that means there's a little hesitation in low-risk scenarios sometimes. All you need to do is tap the accelerator and it instantly gets the message. We're talking about something that's barely an inconvenience, but it isn't the "100% perfection" the people here seem to blindly demand.
ARM won't.

RISC-V, perhaps.
This is the only LLM that is exciting to me. Clearly, LLMs are powerful tools that may end up replacing search and even go much further than simple searches by performing the research for you and producing final answers. Closed models like those from Open AI (ironically) or Anthropic cannot be audited. When most users will end up blindly hitting Microsoft’s Copilot button, which they are forcing OEMs to adopt, who’s to say how the information a user gets is being curated or manipulated by OpenAI or Microsoft or whoever?

We’ve already seen real world examples of severe bias injected into LLMs. For example, Google’s Gemini had secret meta prompts that biased it towards certain types of answers and also caused it to produce hallucinated images that were funny but also dystopian (https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2024/02/googl...). I don’t think we can just let closed AI systems take over society when they can easily be manipulated by the model owners without transparency.

What I like about AI2’s approach with OLMo is that they are actually open, not just trading on the marketing benefits of the word “open”. Most “open” models are just open weights not open source. That’s like sharing an executable and not the source code. In my view, being open means that others have to be able to reproduce the final product (the model) if they wanted to and had the means (in terms of training hardware). It also means that they should be able to use whatever is provided freely for any purpose, rather than being subject to proprietary licensing. AI2 shares the training source code, training data, evaluation suite, and the model weights that they’ve produced by running the training process. It all uses the Apache license. And it’s also interesting that they used AMD hardware to train this LLM rather than Nvidia/CUDA.

Open weight models like Llama keep repeatedly catching up to the best closed models from OpenAI or Anthropic or others. My hope is that truly open models like OLMa keep developing quickly enough to also keep up. Lastly, I hope that regulation does not block open source private development of AI systems. These systems will be the vehicle for speech for much of society in the future, so blocking private AI systems is a lot like restricting speech. But leaving that aside, open development will also drive innovation and reducing competitive pressure will hurt innovation.
> they’re not impressed

This is subjective. Impressive things impress. It can be the hand-drawn impossible stunts from the 30's, or a CGI stunt from 2019.
They called out Flexential in the post?
> a world of lies and propaganda, of wishful thinking

“The mind is its own place and, in itself can make a heaven of hell or a hell of heaven.” That satanic line alone should be cause for reflection. How often human beings shack themselves up in their delusions where they feel they can reign, because pride looks upon service with disgust, screaming "Non serviam!"

Of course, cut off from the truth, we are cut off from being, and thus condemn ourselves to insanity, to rot in the noxious vapors and mirages of our decaying souls. And it is here, through this void, that we embrace the demonic and prepare ourselves for enslavement to the demonic.
Hmm, hot patching (and code push) sound local and not particularly noteworthy.
Thank you so much for responding. I will definitely check these out and also pass it on to others who might be interested.
