Part of the bet is probably that since Terraform is almost necessarily going to run on a cloud service that is already being paid for, the user might not care that a bit gets added to the bill.

Redis? I'm not sure. Like you say, they don't want Big Tech to slap a UI on it and profit. And, really, once they start competing on price (which they might sooner rather than later to keep people from going back to on-prem) you can guess they might use something that's free so they don't have to pay the license on a per-server instance.
I've worked in humanoid robots and manipulation for the past decade and this is mind blowing. For robots. Still pathetic compared to any human, but mind blowing for robots. I remember when we were hoping one humanoid would someday be able to replace a broken limb on another humanoid and we were designing super easy quick disconnects to make that possible. This is already way beyond that. Very impressive.
at work we're still at the pre-fork drama version of elasticsearch, it works and leaves us open to pick whichever direction we want to go at a later date when we need it. The same will be for redis, it works, no need to stay up to date.
Even with your numbers... 100L is about 25 gallons. 10oz is about $23,000. That seems perfectly reasonable to attempt.

With the corrected numbers, 25 gallons to move 800 oz, which is nearly $2 million? Yeah, that seems quite enticing.

The secret may be that you have to look like you're smuggling hazardous chemicals into the other country, rather than smuggling money out of the country of origin. I have never attempted either side of this, but I suspect that the bribes for smuggling small[1] amounts of hazardous chemicals is smaller than the bribes for smuggling money.

[1] Small by industrial standards.

>Libraries had papers too.

Have.

Practically every public library in the US (over 17,000 as of right now) currently, today, has online access to local and national newspapers.

My public library offers free online access to the following national newspapers:

Atlanta Journal-Constitution

The Atlantic (HAH!)

The Chicago Tribune

The Los Angeles Times

The New York Times

USA Today

The Wall Street Journal

They also offer access to local newspapers, print and digital magazines, foreign-language newspapers, historical newspaper archives, scientific journals, and more.

I live in a highly-populated, urban and suburban, highly-affluent region. To test and see if smaller public libraries have access these resources I went to the website of the public library system of the rural Indiana county my grandparents lived in. They have one branch serving 28,000 people in a poorer region of the country where average household income is somewhere around $48,000. They have access to newspapers, magazines, and scientific journals through the Indiana Digital Library system.

Then I went to the library of the poorest county (19,000/$22k) in the entire country and did the same thing: WV Reads provides access to all of that, too.

All for $0.00-- today.

Not "had", "have".

Show HN: API to turn entire websites into Markdown
While building mendable - we found that feeding LLMs well-structured markdown improved accuracy. We also found it surprisingly hard.

We found some great tools online, but none reliably handled the entire process. We wanted an API that took a URL, crawled the pages in the URL, and gave us an easy-to-use, up-to-date markdown we could feed into our index.

So, we released an open-source repo and an API that crawls and turns entire websites into a markdown with just a few lines of code

The API handles:

- Crawling without consistent sitemaps
- Infra to handle running many crawling jobs
- Proxying, hosting headless browsers at scale
- Conversion to clean markdown
- Caching
- Handling images, videos (soon), and tables(soon)
- LLM extraction (soon)

It is open source, and we also offer an easy-to-use API that starts free. It has built-in loaders for both @llama_index and @langchain.

Excited to see people try it
It's quite insane that this tampering is allowed in the first place. We'd still be moving towards a more encrypted-by-default future, but there would be fewer meddling middleboxes that threaten less knowledgeable users.
It’s poorly understood by many who use the DSM, and without understanding how arbitrary and or subjective it can be it may be difficult to avoid “overfitting” in the clinical setting.
ECC interrupts were never a problem at reasonable counts. It's just this machine where the memory was falling apart where it was a problem. Our system was robust to a machine halting, but not so great at dealing with a machine running very very slow. Plus, it wasn't easy to connect and shut down the service (maybe we should have just killed it from IPMI, but this was the only time it happened, so learning experience).

I had a similar issue one time where a Pentium III era server rebooted and came up with a comically small amount of memory, maybe 2-4 mb instead of 128 mb. That wasn't too bad, because it was a very lightly service; important to be on its own machine for reasons, but didn't need much. Just ran a little slow when it was running from swap. I think it did trigger a swap usage alert, and then it was like why is it swapping, why is it so slow, wait why doesn't it have any memory!?
I don't think that running your own router fully solves this issue. I've had this disabled from day 1 of having fiber and running pfSense behind the BWG320. I also have a backup TMobile connection. When the the ATT line goes down (like when the fiber is disconnected...or cut) my DNS won't resolve and just goes to the ATT DNS hijack. For failover to actually work I have to unplug the BGW320. I have posted on ATT forums and pfSense and nobody knows how to bypass this.
"we don't know anything about his math generation process"
My man just look at the notebooks. He did not use formal proofs but he was very organized and most of his equations had quite a logical buildup from equations that he wrote before. And even the ones that came out of nowhere are obviously worthy discoveries.
I'm torn. On the one hand, I agree with your remarks. On the other hand, I strongly appreciate the attention to detail in:

- Actually keeping individual datapoints all the time, clickable and with full details, and just moving them around to form different charts;

- Making the icons consistent with data - based on a few random instances I checked, the person's body shape and hairstyle correlated to biometric parameters in the data set.
There’s no greater certainty than rolling your own and building your own stack.

If you want perfect reliability, use the standard library of a language and nothing else. It’s actually possible.

Ironically, the best open source projects are the ones that have no other dependencies beyond the standard library.
Hey, tech lead of OpenTofu here!

I might be in a bubble of course, but from what I've seen, I've been positively surprised by the uptake of OpenTofu so far!

I do also expect OpenTofu 1.7 to be more interesting for people to migrate to, as it'll include a bunch of OpenTofu-exclusives.
> Old becomes new

I disagree. This is like pointing at a 2024 model hatchback and saying "old becomes new" because you can cite a hatchback from 50 years ago.

There's a bevy of ways to isolate or combine memory pools, and mainstream hardware has consistently used many of these methods the entire time.

They do not replay recorded motor signals. They use recorded motor signals only to train neural policies, which then run autonomously on the robot and can generalize to new instances of a task (such as the above video generalizing to an adult size sweater when it was only ever trained on child size polo shirts).

Obviously some amount of generalization is required to fold a shirt, as no two shirts will ever be in precisely the same configuration after being dropped on a table by a human. Playback of recorded motor signals could never solve this task.

Speeding up Docker builds in GitHub Actions has so much low hanging fruit
I should definitely hope so! Though I think the name would cause a stir in local circles even without any legal actions. Tech companies in general are deeply unpopular here (see: Larry Ellison, Mark Zuckerburg, and Marc Benioff buying up big chunks of land, AirBnB and digital nomads driving up rental prices so high such that more native Hawaiians now live on the mainland than in Hawai`i, and perceived lack of cultural respect from projects like the Thirty Meter Telescope leading to major protests).

The other thing is that words have a lot of power in the cultural frame, even just the concept of aloha being something that could be "unleashed" is likely to offend.

All to say nothing off the palpable fear people have here of robots taking hospitality industry jobs like housekeeping (which are unionized in many hotels out here, and are actually one of the few low-barrier-to-entry jobs out here that can support a reasonable quality of life)

I'm sure I'll get a ton of downvotes for bringing up cultural sensitivity and pointing out these concerns -- I don't mean to imply they're all 100% rational nor that no one should say "aloha" unless they're Hawaiian, but if anyone at DeepMind had a Hawaiian cultural frame I think they likely would have flagged these concerns and recommended a different name.
> Convincing people that their problems are outside of their control and that the only way to solve them is to vote a certain way is also a form of authoritarianism

Yes, systemic poverty can only be solved politically. That is just the nature of a systemic problem. I am pretty sure encouraging people to be active in the political process of which voting is a small but important part is the opposite of authoritarianism.

> If you aren't to blame for your own life that implies you have no control over it.

Yes. Bitter pill to swallow but that is the reality. We are mostly defined by nature and nurture and we can't choose with which genetics we are born with or our upbringing and if we will have adverse childhood experiences.

The circle of influence most people have over their own life is very tiny, especially the lower they are on the ladder.

The ideology of personal responsibility is propagated to justify the current status quo and block political change that would help poor people.

Uhm, the freedom of choice exists, I mean, I use Apple Devices, the problem is that the walled garden is that, a Walled Garden, not an easy-to-enter/leave garden, it is specifically made to keep users in without having them leave. I'm guessing while you are on the anti-free use stance, you also don't like the Right to Repair laws being passed. In the context of the emulators, Delta is an emulator that can only be used after what's just breaking the developer system, these weird workarounds shouldn't be needed, because YOU own the device, and Apple shouldn't be able to stop you from adding software, at least legally, onto YOUR device. This kind of strategy works on Android, with the user being able to download apps from the Google Play Store (or whatever other flavor of app store your phone comes in), however still allowing the user to sideload apps from APK files, usually downloaded from other sites, with only security risk notifications.

You can probably set up a decent privately-funded venture to deal in OSI software.

Then they have to enshittify to get ready for the IPO.
Show HN: Save 50% on Snowflake in 15 minutes
I'm a former YC founder, and I've been working with some friends from Google to build Espresso AI, an ML-powered Snowflake optimizer. We use LLMs to analyze and predict your SQL workload and run your warehouses more efficiently.
Our first few customers are seeing Snowflake savings from 30% to 70%. We're launching out of beta, and if your team uses Snowflake we'd like to help you cut down your bill.

You can set up Espresso in under 15 minutes with the instructions here: https://espresso.ai/onboarding

Before turning anything on we'll send you a savings estimate based on your historical data. You can also get an estimate without setting up an account by following the instructions here: https://espresso.ai/savings-estimate-instructions

You can reach me at ben@espresso.ai if you have questions (or just leave a comment, I'm around).

I don’t think RNG or modular math were really the culprits here. PuTTY’s k value generation is deterministic and the biasing was caused by a mismatch of integer sizes and the resulting leading zeros. The offending operation is named mod, so that’s related to modular arithmetic, but the modulo (521 bits) was bigger than the SHA512 output (512 bits) from deterministic k generation. I linked earlier to a post where I break this down at the source code level.
I like this idea but since software and the data that runs through it changes constantly how would a system be interrogated if an incident were several years ago and the complete data picture cannot be reproduced?
tbf, ffmpeg‘s api and thus libav is so obscure that it would be impossible to fork it and create a nice looking api, without bothering people.

I would like to think I'm closer to #4. I'm 33 years old. I didn't put a 50% down payment on my house, but I did a 15% down payment and locked in my interest rate when they were really low (2.75%). I think that's actually might be more fiscally responsible right now than a bigger down payment since risk-free bank interest is actually a fair bit higher than 2.75%, so the money I would normally pre-pay into it I put into Treasury Bills, which also have no risk.

I don't do index funds cuz there was some tax weirdness associated with them at some point and an accountant told me to do the ETF versions of them instead, but I do keep a large percentage of my money in low-risk ETF version of the normal index funds.

I bring all this up because I think part of a reason that a potential reason for why the next generation of men don't save (if that's even true) might not be "generational" so much as just being a product of being young.

I didn't take saving money terribly seriously until I was 25, and it wasn't because someone explained all the pros of having a nice savings account, it was because I was nearly homeless because I hadn't saved. The CEO of the company I worked for embezzled all the money and ran away, leading to about six weeks of no paychecks before I was unceremoniously laid off. It took almost three months to find a new job, I stopped paying my rent because I couldn't afford it, and my landlord drafted a lawsuit against me to evict me. Fortunately in this case, I was able to bother my father in law and he was able to get me enough cash to get the lawsuit dropped, and eventually I found a job and was able to pay him back, and it all worked out.

I sort of a swore an oath to myself that I will never, ever, ever be in that position ever again if I can avoid it, and once I was earning money again I started putting as much money as I could spare into savings of some kind, and this hasn't really stopped.

I wouldn't wish the depression I went through at that time on my worst enemy, but in a bizarre way I'm kind of glad it happened. It forced me to learn how to actually take care of myself, and how to be financially responsible, and that's what I'm kind of getting at: some of this stuff sort of requires you to fall on your face before you really understand it.

ETA:

To be clear, I'm not angry at my landlord for filing the lawsuit. I think that was totally fair all things considered, I wasn't paying the rent, they're a business.

Disregarding the question of if the CSP compete fairly with providers of open source SaaS, your math is broken:

AWS revenue is about $90.76B, though most of it isn't from Redis, I'd assume. But let's be generous, and assume 10% of that is. So about $10mm. For the recent version, Redis-the-company contributions to Redis-the-software were less than third of the code base, so let's say they get $4mm. That's very little revenue for a company that has a valuation of over $2B.
I love bookmarks, they are simple and just work. I have a few pinned tabs I want always open, and 5-15 tabs for current things. And the way browsers are designed, this works very well, so I rarely have reasons to write about it.

But the people who don’t like bookmarks and want tabs for organization have to work against the browser, so they are far more likely to write about their issues.
Googling power draw the 4090 goes up to 450w whilst the 2080ti was at 250w, adjusting for power consumption the increase is somewhere around 32%.

Wikipedia seems to dispute any notion that the people of LIC are abnormally poor:

> As of 2017, the median household income was $66,382 in Community Board 1[47] and $67,359 in Community Board 2.[48] In 2018, an estimated 18% of Community Board 1 and 20% of Community Board 2 residents lived in poverty, compared to 19% in all of Queens and 20% in all of New York City. The unemployment rate was 8% in Community Board 1 and 5% in Community Board 2, compared to 8% in Queens and 9% in New York City. Rent burden, or the percentage of residents who have difficulty paying their rent, is 47% in Community Board 1 and 51% in Community Board 2, slightly lower than the citywide and boroughwide rates of 53% and 51% respectively. Based on this calculation, as of 2018, northern LIC is considered to be gentrifying, while southern LIC is considered to be high-income relative to the rest of the city and not gentrifying.[43]: 7 [44]: 7

For what it's worth, my sister-in-law lives there (in a $4 million brownstone) and I visit with my wife for New Year's Eve every year. There may or may not be a ton of high-paying jobs literally in Long Island City, but it's on the bank of the East River, a two-minute train ride from Manhattan, maybe ten from Hudson Yards. They're probably better off converting all those old bottling plants to residences rather than office space anyway.

Also, not that she shouldn't care about LIC to whatever extent all people should care about other people, but AOC's district does not include LIC.

If the company is soliciting significant bribes from the state to create the job, then, er, yeah, arguably the state should _never_ engage in that sort of thing, but if it does then it should absolutely be looking for assurances that it's getting value for money.

I do think it's slightly surprising that the US doesn't really seem to have an equivalent to the EU's concept of "unlawful state aid", which shuts down a lot of this stuff before it starts.
I hate lots of tabs with a burning passion. The whole 100+ tabs open mess is simply due to no one bothering to solve bookmarking properly.

Of course I do keep a few tabs open for long lengths, I avoid growing the count past 20 or so. If a website is worth saving, I put the link in a text file with the page title and maybe some keywords if the title isn't relevant to the subject. Usually that is enough to find the link with a quick grep.

Kill the tabs
