Maybe because that is a VERY different problem than the one discussed here.

Building a single analog chip with 1 billion neurons would cost billions of dollars in a best case scenario. A Nvidia card with 1 billion digital neurons is in the hundreds of dollars of range.

Those costs could come down eventually, but at that point CUDA may be long gone.

Conversely this is why i utterly loathe the Cybertruck. It's a basket of trivially avoidable engineering faceplants wrapped in hype and cult-of-personality bullshit. It's an on-brand echo of Fuller's work that fails utterly to meet expectations or goals. Oh and for the record I can think of few things that scream midlife crisis louder than a 7,000lb land barge with the cargo capacity of a courier sized pickup truck that costs more than a full sized pickup, 14' equipment trailer, skid steer, and mini excavator put together. It's like conspicuous consumption just got a new hood ornament.
> It's a good first line of defense as a lot of scraping techniques do this approach.

Most basic scrappers, the ones that are not for your testing or devtools or automation or ... Actually use basic text, without any interpretation. They grep the source code, they don't run a dom and javascript engine, because it's a major difference in computing needs and speed.

I am not saying there is no evil scrapper doing dom evaluation, there are tons, I am reacting to your "FIRST line of defense", that one is scrambling the raw text, which is why we got there.

What parent is saying, is that this is trying to upgrade the defense that we have generated to stop the threat that evolved, but it forgot why we got there and thus makes itself vulnerable to the original threat.

navigation properties are not loaded automatically, because they can be expensive. you need to use `.Include(foo => foo.Bars)` to tell EF to retrieve them.

EF tries to be smart and will fix up the property in memory if the referenced entities are returned in separate queries. but if those queries don't return all records in `Foo.Bar`, `Foo.Bar` will only be partially populated.

this can be confusing and is one of the reasons i almost never use navigation properties when working with EF.
I think automated tests are the one area that LLMs will truly improve productivity (and overall code quality). It’ll likely also lead to a lot of tests that actually tests nothing, but as a whole, it’ll hopefully be capable of both generating and updating tests if you give it some good inputs to do it on. Documentation is another area where I have high hopes. In the ideal world people update it as they change things. In reality, however, well…

Then there is the design side of things. I really feel bad for designers of Icons now that you can get some really good one really fast by tasking one of the image generating AIs.

I’m not sure LLMs will ever really be capable helpers as far as programming goes. Well I guess it’s two part, they can help with trivial tasks, but they can’t help with anything related to the actual work of generating business value with code. It’s two-sided of course. They certainly allow a lot of people write functioning, though really shitty, code. Which is a huge benefit for a lot of programming tasks where it doesn’t really matter that it’s inefficient and well terrible. We’ve already seen our more digitally inclined employees make great things with power apps, most of which are eventually replaced by more robust software as they scale. But we also see small Python programs helping out with tiny personal tasks around our offices, and while IT operations aren’t too happy it’s generating a lot of individual value that wasn’t there before.

I'm surprised by how much the US has changed. I used to find it one of the cheapest places in the developed world and if you set the date thing on the map to 2014 it shows it like that. I'm not quite sure why it's changed. My guess would be investment flows into the big tech stocks like Apple, MSFT and Nvidia have pushed the currency up. Also oil - the US used to import a lot and is now the world's largest producer.

Show HN: Drone Localization with RemoteID: Enabling Urban Air Mobility
Hey HN, I wanted to show you a project my team and I have been working on - the first public RemoteID sensor network in Tallinn city center. It's a standard RemoteID system that enables drones to broadcast their location, and we've set up sensors to demonstrate it.

I'm really excited about the potential this technology has for urban air mobility. Check out the real-time and the history of drone flights in our demo zone.

We'd love to get your feedback and thoughts on how we can make this even more valuable as we continue developing it.

The last entity I would trust for trustworthy data on how much Copilot helps programmers is GitHub. They obviously skew the scenarios and metrics to find the best possible number to report.

I think the truth as revealed in your comment and many others is that it all depends on the context. For repetitive code or boilerplate, or starting new projects in well-known frameworks and languages, it probably does increase velocity. The other context factor is the programmer themselves. Their familiarity with the problem domain, the language, and the framework all matter, as does the personality and coding style of the individual.

their success is limited by how much money they can move. When you are moving that kind of money through quant strats you start to move the market. It's easy to capture a triangle arb with 20k, almost impossible to do it with 10B, because by the time you enter and exit the trade the arb no longer exists or you were moving the market against yourself with your own trades.

One of the genious thing that rentech did was long out of the money bonds, and short newly issued bonds. Seems like such a simple strat, but when you crank up the leverage you can make alot of money.

> Email addresses published on webpages usually need to be protected from email-harvesting spambots.

Do they though?

I have had my email address published on my website in a <a href="mailto:… for like 20 years and I don't get spam that would get through the spam filter.

I use both Gmail and (for some other addresses) a webmail hosted by a local company which uses some other filter. Both work well, so it's not something only Google can do.
My state requires mileage every year. Even if it's not accurate for everyone, it's accurate enough for vast majority of people.

Even if you talk about someone cutting you off, that doesn't happen often. You aren't going to get 5 "coin flip" accidents in 5 years. There are dash cams if you're really that concerned. Which brings up another good point. If you really think that fault will be attributed to you incorrectly that often, then your insurance will surely go up, so you already have a dash cam to protect yourself from this existing reality you are peddling?

Here is one test where they compare some formats. Opus came out on top, even though for MP3, they allowed for a significantly larger bitrate. The downside is that the test is old, encoders evolve all the time, although this is true to both Opus and MP3.

http://listening-test.coresv.net/results.htm

The other kind of comparison to consider is transparency - the ability of a lossy codec to be indistinguishable from the uncompressed source. MP3 is supposed to achieve this at 192 kbps, while OPUS can do it in 128.

https://wiki.hydrogenaud.io/index.php?title=Transparency

The best choice, at the end of the day, is wholly dependent of the context of the usage. If all of the source is in MP3 to begin with, it doesn't make sense to convert.
It is. Oh, and also, Go managed to screw up even the assembly, inventing portable but actually not dialect that uses ugly bits of AT&T syntax, custom operator precedence and in practice is non-portable, forcing you to mix Go-only mnemonics (which might even collide with opcode names on certain platforms), supported opcodes of target platform, and BYTE literals for opcodes it doesn't support, making a lot of your preliminary (N)ASM knowledge useless. Isn't that magnificent?

Gee, I wonder if there's a better way to do so that is not such a lazy job. But doing it properly, like .NET does, is supposedly too much effort!

We have those, and when I say inconsistent I mean inconsistent on the same query / exact same line of code on the same database.

e.g. stick a breakpoint, step over, see in the debugger that it was not populating everything it should. Then run it again, do the same and see different results. Exact same code, exact same db, different results.

5000 results back from the db, anything between 5000 and a handful were only fully correctly populated.
The Cybertruck certainly follows in the footsteps of Dymaxion, but it has had the misfortune of actually being built and sold. We were shown a futuristic dream and then it got built and it's not great.
IIRC there have been studies and they showed differences in the latter depending on the specific threat. But "birds" is a large group and studying "bird songs" is not any more helpful than studying "mammal noises" and I don't recall which species the study looked into.

It's worth remembering though that "language" is a form of communication and communication is vital in all social species. "Come here, I'm a good mate and available" and "Go away, I'm big and scary" are the lowest common denominator so even non-social species usually have some way of expressing those sentiments. But the more complex a species' social dynamics are, the more likely it is they will have means of communication capable of reflecting that.

It's also a mistake to look at utterances (mouth sounds) in isolation, especially when looking at a communication system we're unfamiliar with. Body language and facial expressions are a big deal in human communication even if we sometimes exclude them from analysis for simplicity. Not to mention that language features may be different if only because of the different biology (e.g. overtones, repetition or rhythm might carry semantics).

In other words, what Arrival did with alien "written language" equally applies to non-human "spoken language". It would be a mistake to assume that all the concepts we use for analyzing human language would apply to forms of communication in other animals even if another animal's language might turn out to be similarly complex.
Then you might not be in the target audience, which is totally fine…

My job subscribed to Copilot but I ended up disabling it after a few days, I just found it enormously distracting and providing little value. From what I saw the predictions were very accurate, but constantly having something pop up as I type just kept nudging me out of my concentration state. Oddly I don’t feel the same about typical IDE autocomplete, so I’m not sure where the cutoff is there.

For me it felt like having someone trying to finish every sentence I’m speaking: even if they’re right 100% of the time, it’s still very distracting and more than a little irritating.

> Universe is non-deterministic because quantum effects happen randomly.

One of Penrose's foundational arguments is that the random element of quantum collapse is deeply unsatisfactory; he thinks it's a defect in the theory that must eventually lead to its replacement by a better theory.
I think early 20s are a very powerful time for many people because naïveté can be quite convincing, and they have a lot of time to learn without unreasonable expectation.

People will start looking more at your record than your potential, which is a shift from optimism to criticism in 99.9% of cases. In my case, I had what felt like a meteoric rise in the early part of my career, but technology changed, and my interests changed, and now all of that is irrelevant. So all that success you feel like you missed out on so far, it’s probably not much different either way, but you can’t replay it the same way. Maybe you’re talking about money, and lots of things can reset that too.

That big tech co might take you, but increasingly for niche jobs not on the fast track. You can probably do a startup, but you might have to grind on your own for years while some kid gets his tweet funded. When you were young it seemed like the other way around because you only saw the top 0.01% of timelines ahead of you, and now it’s the same way looking back.

Sound advice is the same, but you’ll keep learning that you should have followed it, and there was still time then, but now it’s too late, at least until now becomes then and there was still time. Maybe it sounds something like this: focus on the routine physical act of doing something you respect and enjoy enough to ignore the outcome, and just keep doing it. Or maybe just save your money. Actually don’t ask me; I don’t even know why I’m writing this.

Okay, I do know why: because every other response is going to be some variant of suggestion to pretend that age doesn’t matter, and that your anxiety is totally unfounded. No. Things change. Opportunity is limited. Some doors are closing on you, and some you’ll learn were never open, but it sure feels good to think it’s all possible, and that’s slipping away. I regard dismissal of someone’s feelings as a nasty thing to do to someone, even if you’re just trying to help them, and even if you are rationally correcting them. You’re not wrong, but you’ll adapt and whether by rationality or necessity, correct your values to align with reality as it evolves.
For my 2 month experience copilot is showing sometimes very good ideas, but usually it suggests rubbish. Copilot chat is trying to analyse code and answer but it also needs to be controlled. Overall feeling is to have a very fast and intelligent but rather foolish Junior Developer by your side, who reads a lot of documentation, but needs to be fully controlled

True: nvidia has been consistently investing for over a decade.

They saw there was nascent compute use of GPUs, using programmable shaders. They produced CUDA, made it accessible on every one of their GPUs (not just the high-markup professional products) and they put resources into it year after year after year.

Not just investing in the product, also the support tools (e.g. a full graphical profiler for your kernels) and training materials (e.g. providing free cloud GPU credits for Udacity courses) and libraries and open source contributions.

This is what it looks like when a company has a vision, plans beyond the next quarter, and makes long-term investments.
