The LLM critic in me can't help but notice that ChatGPT-3.5 completely whiffed its explanation of integration in the original post, but of course did so in a fluent, confident way that made its response sound like it was correct.

The ease with which LLMs launder misinformation at scale is genuinely dismaying.
You are delusional if you think ISP's will just lay down and take it when every one of their subscribers becomes a video CDN.
I'm sure they don't out of concern about ad-fraud, but it would be funny if they had such an API, demanded third-parties used it, and didn't charge for/track those ad views.

> I feel very uncomfortable seeing cargo being used as a tool to distribute software. Cargo is a package manager.

but... that's exactly what a package manager is. a tool to package and distribute software. apt, dnf, nix, snap, flatpak, npm, cargo, pip... they're all package managers.
A variation on this theme is that I frequently run across bios full of buzzword nonsense, and then the phrase "learning to code" in it.

Where do you draw the line? What about if someone, without consent, tells a story and describes every last detail of that person, short of drawing a physical picture? What if they write down that story? What if that story is kept in a safe inside your house and nobody else reads it? Why draw the line at a physical image?
Here's my experience.. got a Vive, ZERO motion sickness, was developing some games and toys with it for 6 months or so. Played about 20 minutes of some Resident Evil game on PSVR and got REALLY motion sick around the 10 minute mark and just powered through for another 10 minutes. I had to lay down and it took a good hour to fully recover. Now I can't play VR at all without getting sick, start getting the sweats and nausea as soon as I put my vive headset on. completely ruined VR for me, never finished my game I was working on, VIVE just collecting dust. Fuck the PSVR, I'm still mad about it.

To add to this: Prop 13.

The CA housing market is just totally distorted by Prop 13. It is by design meant to screw new home buyers. And has been doing this for 46 years, with absolutely no end in sight.

I guess my point is that CA folks shouldn't generalize the issues with the housing market to the rest of the US/world just because they have a dogshit law on their books.
As far as I know, you're correct that this exact trade probably doesn't happen on the US exchanges - day orders do have a matching phase before market open, so it may be advantageous to slide in right afterward, but you likely wouldn't do it without knowledge of the state of the opening auction.

However, sending things just a hair early for scheduled events to catch an exact time is a pretty well-known trick at this point. I remember complaining to the exchange that their clocks weren't precise enough for this to be reliable.

I got so used to Brave skipping any type of ads on YouTube that one day I was mindlessly scrolling YouTube shorts until I saw a video which was clearly an ad, despite any clear indication. My immediate reaction was to close down the tab.

Maybe the ad blocker will figure this out in the next update, but until then all Google did was kick out my video scrolling habit.
Probably not. The fees get split between them already.

What would be nice would be having independent venues that aren't all selling the same canned water and ticket prices showing the fees.

No, I was careful to not make any absolutist claim and even provided a reference for people to read further. Pornography in general is subject to the Miller test, so it should not be surprising that simulated CSAM is also subject to the Miller test as well.
Let's go the other way! Any of these corporate entities that control am entire vertical were produced by the centralizing logic of the US economy and legal landscape. Boeing is but the USG's plane manufacturing division, masquerading as a public company. Live Nation is the defacto ticketing provider. As government (created, controlled) entities, it's entirely reasonable to me to call this a tax.

Of course hosting YouTube isn't cheap, but giving money to google is unethical. If a less dangerous company owned YouTube it'd be a different story.

I recommend Nebula for any channels which are on there; they make much more money that way. I recommend NewPipe for channels that aren't on Nebula; let YouTube die if it needs to be so user-hostile to survive. (Yes, I know it's a lot easier for me to say when I haven't staked my livelihood on YT and I wouldn't be the one being sacrificed if YT were to actually die. I don't really have an answer to that except that I'm supporting alternatives where I can.)
Actually, you do.

IF the artwork is porn.

In fact, if you're not old enough, it's just flat out illegal. You'll go to prison for making that artwork. And you arguing that it's "art" is not going to find much resonance in US courts at least. You're likely to fail the Miller test if US citizens are the judges.

Snowflake Launches Practical Text-Embedding Model for Retrieval Use Cases
This sounds pretty accurate to me. I personally got into programming because I wanted to create a website to share my knowledge online, and then felt like adding more and more interesting features to differentiate it from the crowd. I also learnt a lot about it due to wanting to code games as well.

Wouldn't be surprised if something like 60-80% of programmers got started because they either wanted to make a website about something or they wanted to make a video game/video game mod. After all, nothing drives you to learn more than having a clear goal in mind and needing to find solutions for how to achieve it.
Yes, this bothers me as well. I pay for YouTube premium but that does not skip the "native" ads that YouTube considers part of the content. Sometimes, it legitimately is something interesting as product like when LTT launched their screwdrivers (I decided they were too much for me, but were worth a look), but to hear about Better Help, Hello Fresh, Nord VPN, or Raid Shadow Legends again... it pisses me off.
On PC or on PSX? The version on PSX had a very different feel to it, partly due to very different kind of soundtrack. Both are good though.

You tried to establish mutual exclusivity between conscious decisions and mental illness.

I refuted that.

Never said the impact on society of your examples were similar.
I agree with your statement, but the tipping thing is totally unrelated. Youtube pays creators for the content they produce (via ad-share or premium sub share). There is no tipping in the loop here.

We are all a little bit insane. "Life advice" is just mild treatment for the mildly insane.
It doesn’t take that long to read - probably 15 minutes, and a few minutes to skim.

For tl;dr use ChatGPT. “Summarize this <link>”. You can ask questions about it if you’re interested.

In general it talks about pmf, gives advice on different stages of pmf, and some strategies to be used to help navigate towards pmf at each stage.

As far as people that want this, i sure hope they can spend 15 minutes (or even 30!) on an article if they are spending years trying to achieve pmf.
That’s the 21st century equivalent of becoming an ascetic monk.
It's funny; I pay for lots of things, even other streaming services in order to not have ads, but I absolutely refuse to give YouTube a single penny. The difference is that every other service made the deal up front - pay X for content, pay Y for content and no ads, and here's the website and here are some mobile apps - while YouTube started out free for all with some really minor ads that you could block if you wanted and loads of 3rd party apps plus the website and 1st-party mobile apps, and then over time removed features from the free version and cranked the ads up to 11. Basically, if your selling point is "we made the free version worse" I don't want to reward that behavior.
Show HN: A pgvector fork with the performance of Pinecone
Hi friends,

Excited to share our latest project, pgvector-remote, with you all!

pgvector-remote is an extension designed to effortlessly incorporate remote vector stores, like Pinecone, into pgvector. With pgvector-remote, harnessing the power of a remote (Pinecone) index becomes as easy as utilizing ivfflat or hnsw.

Why pgvector-remote?

1. Simplifies integration of memory-intensive vector indexes like Pinecone into standard database servers.

2. Addresses critical feature gaps in pgvector, such as metadata filtering for AI applications.

3. Hides the complexity of maintaining and synchronizing vector stores from the user.

Key Features:

+ Achieve <10ms latency and 200QPS throughput, similar to Pinecone.

+ Enjoy metadata filtering capabilities, just like Pinecone.

+ Benefit from SQL compatibility and transaction support akin to PostgreSQL.

Usage:
CREATE INDEX ON items USING PINECONE (embedding);

We're continuously enhancing pgvector-remote and would love to hear your feedback!
I get your point, but I think some kind of civil rights lawyer would be better than some beaten up criminal.

Utter nonsense. Long after the formation of Arm, Acorn eventually evolved into Element 14.

It renders a waveform that looks very similar to what it would look like if you drew a line between all points. If you have 100 samples per pixel and you draw lines between all of them, you'll essentially end up with a filled area that goes from the lowest sample to the highest. So practically the same thing as just taking the min and max and then filling everything in between. The advantage is that you're avoiding all those lines in between. If you zoom it, the signal changes very smoothly without those aliasing effects where peaks appear and disappear. The web demo currently doesn't allow zooming in, so you can't test it there, but if you download the whole Samplab app (https://samplab.com/download), you can try out what it looks like when zooming in.
You can do that on both HIP and cuda through e.g. hipHostMalloc and the cuda equivalent (Not officially supported on the AMD APUs but works in practice). With a discrete GPU the GPU will access memory across PCIe but on an APU it will go full speed to RAM as far as I can tell.
My wife and I met on a Descent forum, our 3 sons are named for Descent friends (KoolBear, Jediluke, and Mark392), and we've attended weddings (and sadly one funeral, RIP JinX) for Descent friends. Even though I considered D3 the weakest of the Descent games, this news makes me happy. Thank you, Kevin!
No, it is not a valid comparison to make between an entire laptop and a single PC part. "The computer I have" is doing a ton of heavy lifting here.
For me, it's not the concept of paying. I'd gladly pay someone to host YouTube. I just don't think paying Google is a good thing.
It’s the mentality. Many of the people that don’t tip aren’t really doing it because they disagree with tipping, they’re doing it because they cheap.
I like your angle but rehashing what’s worked for you isn’t applicable or reproducible for others now.
Whose orbit?
For this comparison the generation of chip doesn’t really matter because the llm decode (which is the costly step) barely uses any of the perf and just needs the model weights to fit in memory
Ask HN: Should you include salary range on an international job post?
When posting a job opening, we normally include salary range. However, we are expanding this role to include international applicants, and the salary range can be different depending on regional market rates. This means that we either:

1. Post a range that is way too high or too low for some regions, which badly messes with expectations and can be very misleading to candidates, defeating the whole point of posting salary ranges in the first place.

2. Post a range that is so broad as to be meaningless (which is what some companies appear to be doing now). However this can also mislead candidates.

3. Omit the salary range entirely. This is obviously not ideal, but personally less information seems better than wrong information.

What do you do when posting international jobs?
How has that worked?
Most exchanges prioritize their order book by price, then time.

If you're a market maker, you (usually) want your orders to be selected. A common market making strategy is to issue a buy order a bit lower than the last executed price and a sell order a bit higher than the last executed price with the assumption that there's a lot of random and small price motion up and down. If you can consistently process order fills and update/replace your orders in the book faster than the other traders, you'll get more of the trading volume, and other traders will have to compete with you on price. For some stocks where the minimum price increment is large relative to share price, most market making traders will converge on the same buy and sell prices, so latency is it.

There's also value in responding to filled orders in one venue at other venues. Many stocks have a 'home' exchange, but trade at many exchanges, if there's a significant price movement at one exchange, other venues will quickly follow, but if you can follow quicker than most, you can execute against the now mispriced orders on the book, etc.
> A good friend is a mail carrier and I'm actually super jealous of her job

You're envious of the side effects of the job, more physical activity. Bet she's jealous of the side effects of your job, more money. Probably neither of the jobs themselves are intrinsically attractive to the other.
Yeah I imagine it depends where the data is coming from and what exactly it looks like (num fields, dtypes...?). What I did was source data -> Numpy Structured Array [0] -> Postgres binary [1]. Bit of a pain getting it into the required shape, but if you follow the links the code should get you going (sorry no type hints!).

It's no wonder we've never encountered advanced civilizations. Consider that we've had satellites in the sky less than 100 years, and there is concern over them affecting the Earth's magnetic field. Keep doing kind of stuff for a thousand times longer - only 100K years, which is not that long in planetary history - and imagine what crazy effects we could have on the planet.
I don’t feel like anything is implying similarity is sufficient to make an artwork criminal.

Although I might call out the opposite problem of making it a crime to request a sfw picture of a specific person and have the model generate something porny

I think their thought was incomplete. It's a language-specific package manager. Out of that list I think there are some that have no business installing packages for use on the greater system. They work fine for development dependencies and project building, but they should stay in their lane when it comes to installing tools to use outside of project development.
I've always wondered how things would have gone had Apple been able to release MacBASIC:

HyperCard was close, and I've been productive with its clones, and hope that something interesting happens w/ LiveCode Community Edition, but I wonder if the solution isn't just Domain Specific Languages wrapped up in nice applications.

I've been pretty successful w/ OpenSCAD, and its Customizer is _amazing_ and the new ability to run it in the browser is way cool:

https://seasick.github.io/openscad-web-gui/?https://raw.gith...

That said, its limitations are striking, and I have big hopes for:

That said, I'd really like to see some programming environment worked up which was:

- dynamic/interactive

- allowed drawing up an interface in an interactive/iterative fashion

- wasn't painfully sandboxed as Scratch or the LISPs seem to be

- allowed exporting a stand-alone application --- ideally cross-platform

Yes. I'm fine with them dying and a better company taking over that I would then support.
The nihilism comes in when (it is perceived that) it doesn't matter that even if you do the right things (get educated, learn a skill/trade, work hard, don't spend too much), things are in such a state that that won't help, so why not YOLO?
I'm told that the key to good governance is gridlock, checks and balances.
YouTube spent about ten years convincing their users that videos will be offered with only unobtrusive banner ads or short, pre-video ads. Then once the network effects were safely locked in, they changed it to a protection racket where multiple loud, frequently offensive ads (including for scams!) will interrupt a one-minute video and new ads are triggered by so much as rewinding, but you can pay to not see them.

I'd much rather support a different platform, myself.

OTOH, maybe people will chase base models considering what's popular and that would have a good price margin. And just like music and Hollywood, there will be a manipulated market to impose trends to squeeze subscriber dollars. Where even popular indie base models are actually secretly owned by Disney/Universal subsidiaries.

I’ve had it my entire life, if you have ever met someone whose jaw clicks they probably have this. It doesn’t necessarily have to click, but that’s the most noticeable external symptom.

It doesn’t really affect my life that much outside of getting the occasional strange look/question when dining with strangers and being unable to chew gum because it makes my jaw ache.
Interesting, but I get the feeling that they’ve packed so much into the PMF concept that it’s basically the whole business. In my mind it makes more sense to reserve the term for what’s called Level 1 here: the early stage where you need to make big adjustments and potentially pivot to an entirely different product or market.
Youtube has had ads since 2007. And complaining about it becoming harder to circumvent ads is silly. Youtube has a clear business proposition, and anyone is free to not use youtube.

Not like their is any real competition though, it only takes two second of business analysis to see that users want a video service where you foot all the costs and charge nothing (ads or subs) for it. Read about what happned to vid.me

Historically you could read any newspaper for free. It would be left all over the place: at work, at cafes, on the bus seat. Short of that you could go to like a grocery store where the paper is kept in a rack not a box, read all you want, and put it back. Libraries had papers too.

Today publishers want an unprecedented level of restriction to solely the subscribers. News was never like this but they are trying to repaint our expectations on it for profit.
