If you use Wireguard only to route to/from to a central hub that has a static IP address then what you have is perfectly fine.

Tailscale works well for situations where you have lots of roaming devices that perhaps want to talk to each other as well as to central hubs or you want to gate all of this behind some kind of SSO.
and if you trust me in general to be writing decent code, the review is a quick one (and let’s be honest, sometimes defacto or minimal).

If you think I’m an AI, you have to review it so closely you right as well just have written it yourself.
Wow yes exactly this.
Didn’t even think about laundromats
Judging the quality is possible to an extent IMHO. You can see if an artist practiced their skills and techniques and you can see if precise pieces were done with care for instance.

From the pictures it looks like there are parts that show real care but other parts that are kind of messy and maybe more half finished projects.
That’s not the claim. It’s well
commented and formatted so actually quite readable. The claim is that very few could write it.

Though I would say that ‘very few’ is a larger group than they think - there are plenty of people doing metatype programming in TS; I’ve dabbled enough that given the problem I could probably tackle it and I know I learned from seeing others do it (because I am far from a typescript professional). So it’s not ‘superhuman’ if many of the humans who have found themselves wanting to work with the typescript type derivation model could have written it.

These capabilities - type ternaries and inferred type parameters - were put into TypeScript with a view that humans would use them.

The danger here is kidding yourself that this sort of code is beyond human.
You leave your car parked outside at a slow 22kW charger. But with a full BEV, you don't need to charge every night, just like you don't need to fill up your gasoline car every evening in your own garage.
Any secret police protects the status quo.

What is the status quo in the US? Totalitarian capitalism, and whose who profit from it, which is very few people.
These do exist, here's one I saw recently: https://www.laserpwr.net/hand-held-laser/hand-held-laser-2.h...
This smells like "How is Dropbox better than running my own FTP server?"

Tailscale/Headscale is to Wireguard, what Ubuntu is to Linux.
the trouble is that you don't know which functions to read the manual for. last night, for example, i was trying to find out how to get objdump to disassemble an ms-dos .com file with the correct load address of 0x100 rather than 0. google was unhelpful, but gpt-4 told me that the option i was looking for was called `--adjust-vma`. probably if i'd read the objdump manual i would have been able to find it (though the objdump documentation isn't very clear about what `--adjust-vma` will do on a raw binary file), and technically that's only about 15 pages, and spending the requisite half hour reading it would probably produce returns the next time i use objdump. so it's a reasonable idea

but it's pretty common for gpt-4 to be able to instantly find the thing you need out of 150 pages or 1500 pages or 15000 pages. or the five things you need, and how to combine them. if you want to know what libraries can probably solve your problem, asking gpt-4 is a much better idea than reading the manuals of all possible libraries
> NVidia used to be a second tier job from the perspective of software professionals

Since when? It was always a very popular choice for those truly interested in HPC and ML.

I think the issue is there are a lot of people in the industry who actually don't care about the products they're building.

If you're working on building something you like, it'll always be fun and worth it.

> it was not harder than any other top or mid-tier software company

What the hell is a "top" or "mid-tier" company.

The kind of person who thinks like this is never going to make good money in this industry.

If you are truly valuable, you will get a Google level salary anywhere.

> The reason NVidia is in the position it is, is more due to the work of OpenAI, which of course builds on the entire community's effort

They've been working on this problem for decades. Back when NLP was almost dead and Precision Medicine was a pipe dream, it was Nvidia that was helping maintain the ecosystem.

> And yes, I'll admit I'm jealous

You definetly are, but you also don't seem to have the right mentality for this industry.

Being a generalist is useless. Being a domain expert the right application of technology in a specific industry is what gets you the big bucks.

I don't need a sklearn script kiddie - I need an sklearn script kiddie who also knows how to apply ML to my specific business domain.
Well, "a bunch" is an understatement, I bet they have a bit more than just a bunch! It does pass a sniff test, since from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Size_of_Wikipedia:

>As of May 2015, the current version of the English Wikipedia article / template / redirect text was about 51 GB uncompressed in XML format.

Compressed data at the same time was 11.5 GB. And that's data from 9 years ago, and just English Wikipedia.

For comparison, I collect leaked password dumps and they (combined, after deduplication) go into hundreds of GBs too. And that's for just username:password lines, not even text.
Y’all installing Tailscale on work laptops? Unless you got an explicit written permission to do just that - don’t. In many places this is a fireable offence.
shrug all I know is I fixed some issues with compose sequences by giving flatpak apps access to XCompose. It may be something with electron apps not properly using ibus?

What do you mean by MBA bullshittery?

And yes, VS offers more for c# than any other IDE for its language...

Why the criticism that it does too much? Is the colossal, modular system unwieldy when you install the limited subset of features you need?
Can't speak to EB, but for EC2:

Not the new hotness? Longer startup times, which can hurt if you scale to zero? Requires building a golden image which is more overhead plus you are responsible for OS bugs?
Yeah, a bad example on many levels.

It also took them almost a DECADE to acknowledge that they should work together on this topic, and STILL they don't fully acknowledge that.

I wonder how long it will take for them to complete the journey on NOT cooperating on messaging, by butchering the RCS-specification in secrecy...
Not to the Roku. And many casual watchers are allergic to the thought of using a keyboard with the TV.
Earthlings was the only movie I’ve ever had to pause and watch in 2 sessions in order to get through it. I found it utterly devastating. Evocation of emotion is what I look for in a movie (or any art, really), and Earthlings maxxed me out.
I've written a parser to handle all the cases. I can add a custom model/LLM if the parser fails to improve reliability even further if parser fails.

I believe ML Algos are a blackbox and non deterministic. So, they might fail for any given input and can't be trusted as a primary source of truth.
I’m surprised it’s available at all and kudos to them for making it so.

I’m sure the folks who worked on this are hard working and dedicated and all of that, but the entire IEEE standards process seems like a backward, political, and entirely pay to play model.

Based on my experience, they won’t even talk to you unless your company joins their consortiums and whatnot. And why would they? Their members benefit directly from the “moat” of complexity they have created. As an outsider, you may as well not even bother trying to report errors, etc.
true, though i would guess that's mostly phones and it seems to be stagnating
Then explain how you are gonna increase the address field in IP packages without making the resulting protocol incompatible to IPv4.

As to my current knowledge, this is not possible because any router not understanding these extensions would be unable to route packets with that extension correctly.
I think training error itself has diminishing returns as a metric for LLM usefulness.

A lower error, after a certain point, does not suggest better responses
I do think that people may let code be generated without really thoroughly checking every part of it and I see that as a problem.

That, in my opinion is a new "untrusted input" attack vector and it will abused (probably even more easily than how the recent xz backdoor happened), by either targeting the training data, using prompt injection or in other ways.

The scary part about it is that any contributer/commuter themselves is considered a "somewhat" trusted entry but if it is assumed that everyone uses code generation AI that entity cannot be trusted anymore.

At the same time, since all the AI generated code has to be thoroughly checked/reviewed, the assumed productivity gains are somewhat diminished.

I think how it will actually play out though is that security concerns will just be largely ignored as it often goes.
By the way - we practice what we preach-
Copilots raise the bar (or the ceiling...) on human productivity - in every domain. Which is why we're building infrastructure to make building copilots easier...

What ideas do you think are still missing from today's Copilots?

I.e. suppose we were looking back at today's Copilots 5 years from now- besides better models, what else has changed?
I got the impression at the time that stuxnet was Israel (albeit likely with US involvement). Has it been shown to be the US for sure? Or are there still competing theories?

Installed power is meaningless.

The question is if you are producing enough energy at the time where it is needed by the consumers.

Companies are already doing it. IPXO, for one.
There are roughly 6,000 languages in the world. My own first language, Danish, has about 6 million native speakers, and it is something like the 50th most spoken language in the world. The world is a big place.

Did you know that there are languages where you can't form a sentence without describing what direction something happens in? Like you can't just "see the house", you're either doing it up or down the mountain. And you know how in English you can't really say anything without saying if it's going on now or happened in the past. Other languages don't really care about that at all, you can speak all day with specifying if it "is" or "was".
I found notepadqq to be a near drop-in replacement for my use of Notepad++ (mostly the visible line endings, find/replace extended characters like \n & \t). The interface is near-identical.

It hasn't been updated in a couple years but haven't run into any bugs in a year+ use.
It's mainly the initial connection bit that Tailscale does that makes it great, in my opinion. The rest of the features are decent too but for me this is the reason I use it

https://tailscale.com/blog/how-nat-traversal-works

Of course if you don't need this, or can set up NAT traversal yourself, and don't need anything else Tailscale does aye set up your own WireGuard network, no worries.

All the reasons I use tailscale after initial connection are indeed the same as if I'd set up any other VPN (direct connectivity, secure connection, private connection, etc)

At its very basic level it's a nice wrapper around WireGuard that handles the fiddly bits that might stop the initial connection for you.
I built a free Chrome extension for Desktop users of X / Twitter who enjoy the platform but want to control how much time they spend on it. It's called XCoach, and it allows users to create timed sessions and see their minutes spent on X that day and through history.

If you'd rather read about it than watch the video demo, I wrote a Medium article: https://medium.com/@baogorek/xcoach-a-chrome-extension-for-a...

Though it's completely free, I'm having trouble getting users. I'd really appreciate any ideas.

I'm also wondering whether it would make sense to create a "Coach" for other platforms on desktop as well. I learned that some people primarily use TikTok on desktop, which surprised me (well, one person, who is a creator).
Remember that famous HN comment about how you do not need Dropbox because you could setup this thing with sshfs or something? Tailscale is that Dropbox of VPNs.

My main authoring tool is then Emacs Markdown Mode (https://jblevins.org/projects/markdown-mode/). For data entry, it comes with some bells and whistles similar to org-mode, like C-c C-l for inserting links etc.

I seldom export my notes for external usage, but if it is the case, I use lowdown (https://kristaps.bsd.lv/lowdown/) which also comes with some nice output targets (among the more unusual are Groff and Terminal). Of cource pandoc (https://pandoc.org/) does a very good job here, too.

Biome 1.7: Migrate from ESLint with one command
Main features:

- Migrate from ESLint with one command `biome migrate eslint`

- Migrate from Prettier with one command `biome migrate prettier`

- Experimental machine-readable reporters

- New `--staged` CLI option to format and lint `git` staged files

- New lint rules and many fixes!
If you even know about what WireGuard is then you're already in a minority. I personally would rather think as little as possible about networking, so I've been eye-ing tailscale.
That's just production precision, which I appreciate but many significant art pieces don't have much of that. If you don't like it, you don't like it(I don't like it too, I value mastery) but that doesn't say much about the quality or more importantly significance of the art.

I think the difference is that such incidents were previously the exception in a codebase, in the future they will be the rule.

I understand why they do it (fraud mitigation in layers) but it's still ridiculous. Most US banks don't even offer TOTP for second factor; they force SMS 2FA which is not secure at all.

Maybe once passkeys or hardware keys are widely adopted they can remove the atrocious fraud detection.
Not an official Debian project is kind of an issue though.
If you look at the document linked at the bottom of the page you shared:
https://www8.cao.go.jp/cstp/kihonkeikaku/5basicplan_en.pdf

it mentions the following list of priorities for the plan, and with a bit of creativity it is possible to imagine ways how cheap, powerful, compact lasers could benefit each of them in turn. Probably, and more mundanely, the researchers are doing their best to justify their research grants by connecting the outcomes to the political priorities of the day.

"Hence, Japan will consolidate the following fundamental technologies in particular, which function as core technologies in the real world, for new value creation in individual systems.

- Actuator technology: technology related to activating mechanism, drive, and control devices in the real world, as well as the results of information processing and analysis obtained in cyberspace
- Biotechnology: technology transforming sensor and actuator technologies
- Human interface technology: technology using augmented reality, affective engineering, neuroscience, etc.

The comment I was replying to seemed to imply that QNX 8.0 is a full rewrite. I'm not sure how relevant that statement was here, unless the rewrite is seL4 based.
Which is all of them now, besides the Mac Pro. The super thin MacBook Airs have the excuse that upgradable storage would add bulk at least, but there's really no excuse for a brick like the Mac Studio not having M.2 slots.
The same time the function pointer is initialised, and from the same source.

If you like, consider it to be 2 different functions. One takes an argument, one has a fixed value.
Why Asians Aren't Drowning in Debt (But North Americans Are)
IPv4 is like legacy code that got extended and dependencies added. Everybody is using it, because everybody is kind of comfortable with it and it mostly works/ people know all the workarounds for its quirks.

IPv6 is like the same code with a major refactor. One of the big unwieldy databases (NAT) was dropped because it turns out you don't need it if the system is smarter overall. Also, autoconfiguration works reasonably well now. For most usecases the subnetting also got much easier as you can just slap a /64 on any realistic network without hesitation. You just have to do a relatively small step to use it.
Many things are available a la carte. But the all you can eat streaming services are not great if you're looking for something specific in general.
probably that's why parent said it's good they get sued.
That's not too amazing if we're cracking a leaked password database.

In that case, we generate passwords and try them against every (hash, salt) pair in the database. We can usually crack 60 percent of a database this way, and more if we use AI driven cracking (PassGAN, 2017).

It makes sense to try variants of "netflix{birthday}" early on, since that uncovers a significant portion of the database. Your mom would have just been unlucky to be part of that low-hanging cohort.
The article is specifically about PHEVs.
I’m curious, have you tried nose strips? [1]

I recently realized that my nostrils slightly collapse inwards when I breath through my nose. The nose strips seem to help me enough to make nose breathing comfortable.

I have a PHEV and charge overnight from a wall outlet. I wake up in the morning fully charged. Probably 99% of my trips are electric, but only 80% of my miles. The occasional long road trip really adds up. It is also hard (in the US) to charge on a trip. My car can't charge from a DC fast charger (it doesn't have the right connector), only from the level 2 AC chargers. From a L2 charger it only charges at 3.3 KW (most chargers support between 6.6-10 KW) which results in ~10 miles of range per hour. So if I take a half hour lunch break while driving, that's only 5 miles added.

If you can charge at home or work it's a great deal, but if you can't I can see how it would be hard to charge it enough to make it worthwhile.
Embedded systems.

It's going to be a while before an AI can take a chip spec and give you a device driver. It's going to be longer before AI can take a buggy chip spec and give you a working device driver.

Still longer before it can give you a whole working product.
Of all the power you pump into one of those modules get 5% cooling and 95% heating. It's practically like running resistive heating.

They're not so much useful for cooling as they are for achieving sub-ambient temperatures where power use isn't a problem. Extremely light and compact fridges/freezers. Final stages of quantum computers to really get down to that zero kelvin.

QCon London: Lessons Learned from Building LinkedIn's AI/ML Data Platform
I think people who got excited about streaming (one low price and you get whatever music you want on tap) have started to realize it isn't as nice as it seems (music disappears, they push music you don't want, and don't support artists like CDs do) and so developers are coming back to local clients that you control managing music you own.
> I think it’s more likely that wearing a headband every night isn’t an attractive proposition for many.

Case in point, I personally cannot use wrist bands or any such accessory for sleeping as I sleep with my forehead on my wrists. Neither the wrist band nor the hand band are good options for me to use.

I wonder if there is something that can help someone who sleeps on their stomach not have to choose between crushing their nose or cramping their neck when they sleep...

Good point, I do indeed use Flatseal. I added it to the blog post.
> Nobody cares about sunlight.

Perhaps that's cultural. Most people in my social circles care quite a bit about sunlight. At home, the evening routines that we do with our children are based on a combination of season and sunrise/sunset. I find it somewhat surprising in fact that this is not at least partly the case for others, excepting of course people that work 3-11 or 11-7 or what have you.
Would it be a dumb idea to use Fizzbee (or any formal methods language) for non-trivial programs in general, not just distributed systems? I wonder if it would be useful for specifying bevahiors in, say, game development for example
The same Germany where the "Green party" pushed to close nuclear power plants and buy more gas from the Russians. Truly clown world.
Not really. Maybe you’re right.

It would not be useful, unless I lived in an area where I would use it. Maybe if I moved to Canada.

Same goes for computer languages. At one time, I was quite fluent in C++, but I can hardly recognize it, anymore.

I'm sure this would've been happening in the past too with books having editions. Streaming just moves towards consumption sticking to the latest editions. Like you say, not really a bad thing, but where it goes we'll see
What I'm now wondering about is how intuition to connect completely separate ideas works in humans. I will have very strong intuition something is true, but very little way to show it directly. Of course my feedback on that may be biased, but it does seem some people have "better" intuition than others.
For me, I run Wireguard 99% of the time. I only use Tailscale for those rare times port 51820 is blocked for whatever reason. Then Tailscale works.
This is a completely different thing.
