No, the solution is for the scoring to be handled by software that doesn't exist yet.
Some things have easy, objective measures of correctness. STEM is mostly this way. Others, your humanities et al, are fairly subjective.

You could probably cover most of this with an LLM, and access to a large body of graded material for a given course, provided said material was graded fairly. Generating that data would be time consuming, as, any given assignment would need to be graded by as many people as possible in order to find a fair average.

From there, it's simple comparison between your sample work and the presented work. We're probably a decade from this really being viable en masse, but, it no doubt will happen, and for better or worse we'll likely end up with EDUAAS (education as a service).

TL/DR: Don't try to go big, even if you believe in your idea, because its hard. Instead, cough up $375 for templated business platitudes and chat rooms with randos.

that's a good idea, especially if you don't want to keep a database to manage your library. In the piracy side of things we just make sure to name files something that can be used to look it up in the database and get metadata from that.

Although I have to warn you that ISBNs are not a perfect guid and they sometimes get reissued. Good enough if you aren't hoarding the world I guess.
That’s what motivated reasoning (for clout, in this particularly sad case) will do to ya!

You should apply. Worst case scenario you’ll have spent a few hours tightening your thinking about what you’re trying to achieve.
I think all the disagreement is just a matter of demographics. If you are 22 and time is on your side, go nuts. The intangible benefits of YC (networking, etc) have time to pay off. It’s not like you would have been making insane money at BigCorp anyway that early in your career. You can afford some income instability. No real downside, just be realistic about your chances of a huge exit/unicorn status.

But for “everyone else”, it makes zero sense. You have kids? You’re mid/late career? Forget about YC/VC funding. Much better ways to spend your time and effort.
My first thought looking at https://smallbets.com/ is to clone it and populate it with AI bots pretending to be the other members. In fact, if my little AI clones are good, it's not even that unethical. Long as they provide the same $375 worth of value and the customer doesn't want a refund?
Thanks for sharing your experience!
There's certain a disconnect between my tasks and how the product is actually used. I can certainly try to get more involved there.
I think the combination of the new life, being lonely (I am not a loner) and the responsibility of a family are making me seeing things from a new perspective.
What triggered this burnout is the very real possibility I will be replaced by AI and I wouldn't know what to do next
Hi everyone, I'm one of the founders of Wonder Interactive, and we develop the SimplyStream platform. We're on a mission to bring compute-intensive games and applications to the web, and so for the past several years we've worked to port Unreal Engine to WebGPU and WebAssembly. We started supporting UE4, but quickly moved to UE5.

We also realized that there needs to be a smart way to deliver content in a performant and optimized way, so we start work on building an asset streaming system, that can load in game assets as needed. This is beneficial because you don't require the whole app binary to be download to the end user, instead they can just download a small chunk, and the rest can be streamed in the background at runtime.

We're very excited to have received an Epic Megagrant from Epic Games last year, to support our efforts.

This is also a talk that Zach Gage gave at GDC: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YISKcRDcDJg - but I thought the HN crowd might prefer the essay version.

I quite enjoyed the talk and think most of these takeaways apply pretty broadly to designing things that you want to get people to use.
450GB is 450 TRILLION characters.

Assets are not part of the source code, so this is huge.

That's almost 20,000 times all of Wikipedia, or 2 whole single page applications using a JavaScript framework!
The answer is 100% not to allow more 4 wheeled vehicles to take over the small amount of space the two/four legged individuals have left. I have 80% a mind to push every food carrying robot into the street where they belong when I see them coming by on a sidewalk making everyone leap out of the way to avoid their drunken careening.
And, the author isn’t suggesting only having JSON output, but adding it as an option for those of use that would make use of it. The plain text should remain as well (and has to or many, many things would break).

On a separate point, I find the JSON much easier to reason about. The wall of text output doesn’t work for my brain - I just can’t see it all. Structuring/nesting with clear delineations makes it far easier for me to grok.
You’d think the Canadian political establishment would embrace self-driving vehicles given their history of conflict with truck drivers.
Fair enough, could I prod a bit about this section in particular? ("We use multiple data planes (multi-omics) to evaluate temporal effects across diverse biology."

So you're a high-tech epidemiology company providing disease risk assessments based on your predictive models. These predictive models you say are using multiple data planes to evaluate temporal effects across diverse biology.

My questiosn are, are data planes (multi-omics) the same as just data sources. Naturally conducting epidemiology necessitates taking in data from many sources, where does the term multi-omics come into play here? Presumably some of your data sources are genetics so I could see the "omics" part coming from that field, but it's an interesting term and I'd like to know what you mean by it?
Hey bro! I'm here, I hace the same situation. Just try to talk with others. I'm available. Work I another please. Do hobbies. Share time with you wife. I'm trying to left of this.
Yes but the cars’ use is sanctioned and by design, while scooters are taking up space meant for pedestrians and bikes. That can be reallocated but when it happens without any discussion or update to laws, it can upset people. But the difficulty is that a small startup can’t afford to fight political or legal battles, so it’s easier for them to just break some rules. Is that a good thing? Maybe.
Opinionated take: "a couple of home servers" are probably the wrong solution to your problem. Almost everything you do as a private person works better, faster, more reliably, and with much less time investment if you use a single machine for it.
Well yes, if you start adding "best practices" that only apply to larger companies with threat models that are completely nonapplicable to your 0-revenue, 2-request/sec startup, you are going to have to pay more money.

Adding the requirement of separate private/public VPCs linked by a NAT gateway when we're comparing to a single physical machine with everything running in a single host running Docker is nonsense.
but it's off by default, isn't it?
Is it me or is the copy on this website terrible? And probably super confusing to laymen.

You can do letsencrypt stuff using python standard library, without touching pip and virtualenv. This is my own weekly cron script, unchanged since 2020, with openssl(which is usually preinstalled) and acme_tiny.py with system python. You can easily check what the script is doing by adding set -x and acme_tiny.py is quite readable too. Unlike the monstrosity above.

Yeah sometimes I can’t/don’t go to bed until 3am but I still make sure I get a full nights sleep. Sometimes I just take the day off work and sleep in, which is obviously a luxury, but many people don’t take days off for personal needs even though they have that luxury available to them.
I understand and respect the cities decision. I was frustrated that there was zero interest in compromise. There are many areas of the city that are "condo ville" 1000s of people in 4 cities blocks, and the width of the sidewalks in those particular areas are MASSIVE. You would have to deliberately impede someone, so that end: the robots are driven by humans, humans who are trained to absolutely under all circumstances make sure they are not impeding anyone or causing a problem as their primary focus, secondary focus is the delivery. We just needed somewhere to test, and the city wouldn't even have the conversation, and we asked and asked. That in particular is why I say "hostile".
1 is really trivial and took me like 5 seconds to write:

public class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.in.transferTo(System.out);
}
}

2 is anything but trivial in any language, unless it is some kind of a language specifically designed to build gRPC programs.

Never versions of Java are quite pleasant to work with. There are a lots of quality-of-life improvements (switch expression, multi-line string literals, string templates (currently in preview), lots of useful stdlib APIs), as well as quite fundamental additions like Loom.

Good? My two startups were 2m for 5% shares. Pretty standard.
These laws aren't about protecting America and its citizens, but rather as means to control them.
yes, quite a few hoops to jump through to get something working.

Back in the day, I went through massive effort to jailbreak my iPhone, void the warranty, and use the Cydia app store (amazing that this whole community operated for free).

But slowly the vanilla iPhone experience got good enough that I didn't need to jailbreak anymore, or at least it wasn't worth the effort. And the community died down as well.

Interesting to see the resurgence of a similar concept.
Then go for it. I don't know if you've ever applied for YC, but it sounds like fun. I regret not doing it right out of college.
Knowing Apple I'd personally be concerned about retribution from them. I feel like something else completely unrelated on my device will stop functioning because I'm a user of the app store.
Honestly I've always wanted something like this for reading ebooks.

After many iterations (and neck injuries) I've found the best position for me is simply laying horizontally with a normal sleeping pillow. Then using a stand with an arm to hold the device at the perfect position/distance (I use progressive glasses).

Typically I only lift my arm to scroll to the next page. But sometimes I skim sections of technical books and keep my arm lifted to move quickly. Holding the arm up for 5-10 minutes becomes annoying.

Hasn't that pretty much always been the case?

One thing we are seeing more and more of is composable fabrics where the PCIe bus is effectively being extended outside the case such that you log into a single instance, and instead of seeing just 8 AIA's, you now see 32+. This makes the coordination a lot easier.
My reading of the situation is that, in general, they want the community to reach consensus on a globally appropriate data model and visual language, ultimately for the purpose of serving all of humanity, fairly. Given the unique position of influence held by this renderer, ad hoc iteration on it without holistic planning risks inadvertently establishing harmful precedent that might take years to correct, or worse, to notice at all if only underrepresented users are impacted.

For the specific case of busways, this holistic planning simply has yet to occur.
This is a very strange use of "ergodicity", which would be more suitable for an essay titled "How every possible startup idea will be tried at least once". Using a probabilistic term to describe deterministic activity (i.e. choosing where to dig, checking the soil, giving up if no treasure is found) indicates to me that the author is reaching for some high-minded mathematical justification for his perspective.

The native ad for a $375 course further erodes credibility, and his recent statement that Youtube product reviewers like MKBHD should feel compelled to protect the fortunes of a VC funded company appears quite hypocritical [1].

Your comparison is pointless (I've been using F-Droid for almost a decade, and that's where I get most "serious" Android utilities today - like Termux and various UI tweaks I can't do without). I am fine with hacking Android (and running emulators on it) because I don't rely on it for work, IM, family or work stuff. It's just a sandbox for me.

But I would have liked to have Delta (and paid for it) on iOS, because that's where I spend most of my time. I'll just wait until RetroArch (or someone else) ships on iOS.

Aah thanks, that helps clarifying it. Yep, without media I could see that that many lines of code would be a lot. But how would they make the game without textures? I guess just ripping them from the published version, or just going "it compiles!" and calling it quits?

All you'd get are projections with percentage error margins; you can choose the riskier plays, but it is literally priced in.

You'd also get clapped by the HFT bots.

The real magic is pairing real human intuition and the LLM's innate ability to discover hidden intuitions and articulate them to find an "asymmetry"-where you believe you have found a gradient/play that is under/over valued and play the opposing side - or selling/further leveraging that information.

> the lack of WoW in China for at least a time period

That's a more fair claim, but both goes without saying (because it's what we're talking about) and is still misleading, because and I'll quote the wowhead-

"World of Warcraft has always been popular in China"

Anyone familiar knows WoW has been available in China for many years (they even have a Blizzard China HQ) and Blizzard has been working with with NetEase for years to service that market.

That's true for a lot of other companies, everything from McDonalds to Ford. It's just social media companies whining.

> just found it amusing that the example you used

Intentionally so but could have easily mentioned GM, Microsoft, Boeing, Nike, KFC, Coke, Procter & Gamble, Intel, or Starbucks with their 7000 stores in China alone. Are you seriously claiming that American companies can't operate there? Do basic research and stop watching the news - some of you really can't be helped.

Old gas-plasma displays are awesome there’s something so retrofuturistic about them, they’re a cross-breed between CRTs and LCDs.

> It sounds a lot better in the tower and cockpit. Much better receiving equipment, much closer proximity. The tower doesn't broadcast at high power because it doesn't need to. These ATC recordings are only available for us to listen to because someone volunteered to record and upload them; that someone probably doesn't live in the airport.

This is the main reason, but it's important to note (as others have) that you simply get used to imperfect radio signals - go listen to the VATSIM community, and even some of those can be relatively difficult for a layman to parse. But you quickly get used to it, and it becomes second-nature to pull out the relevant bits of a callout without much thinking, based on what calls you expect at any given point in the takeoff/landing/flight
Thanks for answering. I misread your orig post. When you said you had 109k last month I thought that was monthly rev, which would make your arr 1.3mm. The standard offer 500k for 7% is pretty bad (5x rev multiple with x00% growth)

Overall the money isn’t a lot. It sounds like you’re strapped for cash. If you optimize for that you’ll likely find much better terms. The point about cohort being so many idea stage is that they focus on that and have resources geared towards those people. And the community (cohort) will be much less mature business wise. They give you the golden touch which helps for cos selling vapor ware. I think you’re beyond that and can go more traditional route to raise money. Did you reach out to other vcs?
Sure. Bring home legacy services that you aren’t innovating on any more. Running it on a single server. Obviously that’s a great option for a small tech company.
"Ok I will!"
I see where you're coming from, but none of this really means that justifying inductive reasoning through inductive reasoning isn't circular.

Hume himself thinks that inductive reasoning is grounded in "custom or habit", and thinks it's rational to proceed this way---a solution you'd probably agree with.

The reason an entity chooses to behave in an ethical or moral fashion is because they believe it's the right or just way to behave, and not what happens to be the most expedient behavior in some arbitrary moment of time. And principles can cost you in the short-term, but tend to reap tremendous dividends in the long-run. One of those dividends is soft power. Hearing a relatively stoic adult Russian chess grandmaster start to choke up a bit when describing the joy he felt (as a grown man no less) when the USSR collapsed and 'Donald Duck came to Russia' was something quite unforgettable for me. As he described it, literally everybody was picking up Donald Duck stuff - as much as a symbol of the end of one era, as the beginning of another.

But now? In my lifetime it feels like America's soft power has gone from the sort that could make grown men cry with joy, to basically nonexistent. And I think a big part of it is that we are no longer seen as behaving in a principled fashion. We just do whatever is convenient at the moment and then wrap it in some grandstanding and a whole lot of propaganda. Even with this silly event, I think there's an interesting nuance. The government was so concerned about the tremendous national security threat of TikTok that, just 2 months, ago Biden decided to start his very own TikTok account. [1] It went like you'd expect. But imagine it didn't. Imagine he actually managed to gain some traction. Would he, today, still be looking to sign off on a ban of it?

Bundles didn’t really have today’s level of differential.

As an example, NBC and ABC are pretty commonly both in default bundles, but now you get to pick between Peacock and Hulu.
That's a shame. It's just free software, there should be no reason why you can't just put it on your phone if you have the code and want to approve it. Maybe Apple should re-draft the App Store conditions to better accommodate Free Software if this is the sort of business they'd like to attract. If not, oh well, it's only the users that have to suffer.

If you see an application with 1% of 450gb worth of code, run as far as you possibly can.

That's a Lovecraftian horror. Also, it also almost certainly does not exist. The largest codebases would be lucky if they hit a 200MBs-2GB of straight code. And they're far an away the exceptions, not the norm.
Sideloading switch on Android? You install F-Droid and then install whatever you want from F-Droid. I'm assuming you mean the "install application from unknown source" pop-up when you open the F-Droid apk from your downloads folder.
