Inter-planet, the speedup physics, more complex rockets, re-entry. All of those were areas ksp2 should have improved. When pushing ksp1 limits the stability issues start to show.

Also ksp1 was barely playable without mods (the last time I played it)

Interstellar, long term bases for jump off, more interesting science mode. There could be a lot that they could have added to ksp2. But its yet another indie darling dying on sequel.

So I’m not 100% sure that the motives are pure all around. But! I think it’s very plausible that network-mixing with wealthy families, who collectively have some significant control over the economy because that’s what wealth fundamentally is in our society, may actually be critical to the value of attending elite universities for the merit-based-selection group.

Hi! I’m Melissa, a software engineer with a front-end focus and 3 years of professional experience. I have experience in most stages of a product’s lifecycle, from customer research to UI/UX design to product management to engineering implementation to sales to support.

I’m looking for a software developer or devsigner position for my next role. I thrive in environments with a strong engineering culture that fosters mentorship, initiative, and transparent communication.

If your team needs a positive, multi-faceted contributor who can get things done, let’s have a zoom call! I know I can bring a ton of value to your team, and I’d love to learn all about the problems you’re trying to solve!
No, not at all. Nothing with the system integration Hypercard had on the Mac and IIgs. It's pretty shitty that they took Hypercard and BASIC from the people. But we wouldn't have all these trillion dollar software companies these days if the user-developer had remained the core of computing.

I think you're begging the question here. If you look at the differences between DNA, there will be clusters (because some people are more closely related than other people). These clusters are the groups I'm talking about.
Oh I agree it’s viable! It just wasn’t pleasurable to work in. I’m looking forward to trying JavaFX when the time comes :)
I don't think the percentage matters; it's the difference between money being and not being spent. It's not my scene, but I am guessing this correlates with highly disposable income -- people who make too much too easily so they can throw it away just as freely. If that stops flowing, I think it's a decent indicator of a general slow-down.

> Quibbling about "died with covid" versus "died of covid" isn't a useful exercise.

It isn't quibbling when the specific topic is whether or not to treat a population with an untested vaccine (assuming the trials were skipped for at risk populations as proposed above).

In a general sense, I totally agree the "with" versus "of" debate isn't useful. But when considering giving an at risk population an untested vaccine, how is that not important? Any intervention could have downsides, and more importantly an preventative intervention for a secondary infection may not be worth the risk depending on the risk profiles.

One tricky question that would have to be answered is whether the excess deaths were related to changes in nursing home treatment and general conditions. Nursing homes were effectively locked down in many areas, reducing human contact and potentially negatively impacting care. Vaccines would have no impact there, and if the untested vaccine has negative side effects we would have only made things worse.

Strange to see this on the front page. I guess everyone is mad at Powell's doveish language yesterday.

I don't know why we're surprised. The fed has been consistently wrong since Covid. Now they're trying to help the gov fund itself by keeping rates low in coordination with the treasury(or it sure seems like that). Also, it's an election year, and probably no one at the fed wants the orange man elected.

Powell keeps talking out of both sides of his mouth. Endless statements about how much inflation hurts poor people(i.e. most Americans, who own very little inflation linked assets), yet they're followed by inaction or outright dovishness, like yesterday's statement ruling out further hikes(what happened to data dependency?).
I'm kind of with you on this.

The stripper index makes sense when they were servicing a need no one else could. But the rise of OnlyFans means that at least some of the money that would have gone to strippers is going to performers on OnlyFans.

That's the issue with the Stripper index, is that it's vibes based because we can't actually measure how much the industry earned. If we listened to how people felt America should have been through 4 recessions in the last 3 years.

I think you missed the nuance there.

The hypothetical person supporting Israel has family in the country and is fearful of their family's safety. Wouldn't replying to them make you "Reply Guy"?

The parent of the conversation did not say that the artist was fearful, they said "enraged" or angry. It was posited in a child comment that the anger was out of a place of fear.

Depending on how you read the initial post, mood and priors, your reply to a comment can differ wildly.

Hi! My name is Guilherme and I'm a Backend Software engineer with 5+ YoE.
I'm experienced in building cloud-native web apps, microservices. I've worked for both startups and multinationals, on domains such as Insurance, Manufacturing and Telecom.
I'm motivated and looking for opportunities to apply my skills in socially valuable missions.
My values are Honesty, Pro-activity, Pragmatism and Friendliness.
I would rather be in a world where we have skilled hot-air rework shops in major cities (like Shenzhen has) that can cheaply do this upgrade.

The speed of light isn't changing, nor is EMI. Upgradability is directly at odds with high-speed, RF-like, timing-sensitive protocols. "Planned obsolescence!!!" - no: electrical reality.
Both of my two post college jobs. A co-worker at an internship in college showed me HN and then I used workatastartup.com (The YCombinator job search site) to find both of my jobs.

I've also just been exposed to so many new ideas that have made me a much better developer. The only thing I would change is finding HN sooner. It's weird to think that this platform has taught me so much.
On the other hand, this is FT's interpretation. Obviously they're going to have a slightly different take on what "anarchist" and "commune" means.
To be clear, that is exactly what the PCI SAQ A-EP questionnaire covers. It basically says "You don't access any cardholder data, but you own the page that hosts/redirects to the third party processor (like Stripe)." So the questions in the SAQ A-EP are about ensuring that your page has enough basic security (at least as can be asked in a questionnaire) to prevent hijacking, whereby a nefarious script (through an XSS vulnerability for example) sends them to a site to phish their cc details. Note that a decent content security policy on your website can prevent most of these types of problems.

Is model collapse inevitable

Short answer --- yes.

It is the only *logical* outcome.

In most engineering endeavors, errors tend to accumulate and grow over time. Why should AI be any different?

As the time honored saying goes --- "Garbage in, garbage out".

"Intelligence" that can't tell fact from fiction well enough to disregard it's own hype can do nothing but recursively suck it back in and produce more of the same over time.

The really disturbing part for me is the realization that a lot of technical *people* exhibit similar tendencies.

... where an arguably more realistic assumption is that data accumulate over time.

This can only be achieved with infinite storage --- which is expensive both to store and search and --- (wait for it) *unrealistic*.
Well, that was me trying to simplify the query for HN audiences. Let me recall the actual conversation.

Borges said that whenever he was again not chosen for the prize, he felt that the committee had made a good decision.
Yeah, that doesn't exist. Any gathering of people are going to have political institutions whether they are codified or not. Similarly, there's going to be someone or some group of people who the others look to for direction. And whether or not it is codified, those people will form a layer of hierarchy for your "non" government.

Because people seem to think it's "politics" and "government" that are the problem. It's not. It's people. It's always been people. It will always be people. People are the problem. Failure to acknowledge that people can and will be shitty is going to doom your system before it starts.

I gave it a picture from a bar in Austin. It nailed it, but with some interesting hallucinations in the description. The photo had a small Texas flag, but nobody was wearing cowboy hats, and there was nothing with "Austin" on it in the photo. Description was:

This photo was taken inside a bar. There are several clues that indicate this is Austin. First, there is a sign on the wall that says "Austin." Second, there is a Texas flag on the wall. Third, there are several people wearing cowboy hats, which is a common sight in Austin. The coordinates of this photo are
I wonder if such perseverance is possible today in what seems like a time of more intense politics, and with the presence of social media potentially making everyone see the bad side of things only.

It was a moment from the Fed (and government in general) where they favored long term prosperity at the expense of near term possible recession. I think we need a little more of that, not necessarily in what central banks do, but governments in general.

Show HN: Hamilton's UI – observability, lineage, and catalog for data pipelines
Hey HN – Stefan and Elijah here from DAGWorks (http://dagworks.io/, YC W23).

If you don’t remember us from our previous HN launch (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35056903), we’re the authors of Hamilton (https://github.com/dagworks-inc/hamilton), an open-source library for building self-documenting, modular dataflows in python that works for data, ML, LLM pipelines, & even web-workflows.

We’ve been developing this UI for a while and we’re excited to say we open-sourced it! It comes out of the box with the following capabilities, and only requires a single line code change to get:

1. Execution + metadata capture, e.g. automatic code profiling

2. Data/artifact observability, e.g. summary statistics over dataframes, pydantic objects, etc...

3. Lineage & provenance of data, e.g. quickly see what is upstream & downstream of code/data.

4. Asset/transform catalog, e.g. search & find if feature transforms/metrics/datasets/models exist and where they’re used.

While the UI currently only self-populates for Hamilton dataflows, we’re looking to expand to other frameworks (we’d love your feedback!).

Check out the following video for an overview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0VIVSeN7Ij8, as well as the documentation: https://hamilton.dagworks.io/en/latest/concepts/ui/.

We’re looking for feedback/adopters – feel free to reach out if you have any questions!

I found a similar article from June of 2022 about the stripper index signaling a recession, so clearly it's not a very good indicator. A stripper is typically a short-term career, so it wouldn't make sense to rely on observations made over such a short period. Maybe things are just returning to normal after a boom, and none of the interviewed people were around pre-boom.

The personal savings rate, https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/PSAVERT, might be a better proxy of whatever the stripper index is actually signaling. It was at a low in the summer of 2022 and is nearing a low again. Less money in savings means less money to spend at strip clubs. It doesn't, however, automatically mean recession.
Not at all. Hardcore against eugenics.

Just in favour of people knowing what goes on inside their body (transparency) and against the narrative "its better for you not to know".
Hierarchical organization, like political affiliation, is a spectrum.

I'd say that Jane Street would seem to be less hierarchical than others and thus more closely aligned to an anarchist collaborative.

Maybe it does a lot better with photos related to the US, training set probably contained mostly US-related images, as only one image out of ~10 taken in various European places were correctly guessed for me. Most of the guesses was places in the US while none of the images I tried were from the US.
I wonder why too. Same for weights: why have a ton (1000/kilo kilograms) if you can have a megagram (which is the weight of 1 cubic meter of water at the right conditions)

The only 'commonly' used unit of measure larger than a kilometer is a light year, at least that I can think of. Maybe a Astronomical Unit, but not 'common' I suppose.

As a lifelong midwesterner and recent Wisconsin transplant, the Tavern League might be the most bizarre thing I've ever encountered in the politics of my home state.

I grew up in a state where, for a few years, we had more former governors in jail than out of jail. I also lived in a state whose Democrats don't go by that name - oh no, they're the Democrat-Farmer-Labor party, for cripe's sake! Yet, Wisconsin has both Illinois and Minnesota beat with its enormously powerful and well-funded lobbying group of... bars?!
I kind of agree, but I do wonder if that’s largely confirmation bias though; they hire the best engineers they can find from an Ivy League, don’t bother even looking at decent state school people, then the Ivy League engineers they hire do well and they assume it must because they went to an Ivy League school.

I know that fancy colleges like to say that they strive to base admittance on performance, and I believe that’s true to an extent, but it certainly seems like they make an exception for students who come from a lot of money. I’ve mentioned this before but think about any politician that you think is un utter moron, and there’s still a reasonably good chance that they went to an Ivy League because they come from a rich family.

And it annoys me that people act like Ivy League schools are the only ones that accept based on performance. I applied to a bunch of state schools as a teenager and I got declined by a bunch of them. We can wax philosophical about why I was declined but I doubt it was personal, just that they probably didn’t think I would perform well based on some metric.
