Ask HN: How to Retrieve Google Colab JSON Data from a Shared URL via API?
I want to programmatically obtain the source code of a publicly shared Google Colab notebook through an API. For example, I'm looking to fetch the JSON data of the notebook shared at the following URL:

https://colab.research.google.com/drive/15Ow-hKK3Ky9uwEEljmfQpCYbn02ZLd-F?usp=sharing

When accessing the URL, I receive a temporary response like the one below, which includes details like userPermission and downloadUrl:

Repeating the same question after its already been answered doesn't help you. The fact that you continue to refuse to acknowledge the answer is pretty telling.

I'll answer again for you: the consequence of the harm to your protection of genocide is the possibility of genocide happening... like in every single war. But you didn't suffer a genocide and again, the judge and the ICJ choose their words very carefully (as can see in the video, she is being very deliberate). To answer in terms you will understand: On an individual level, yes, it is more akin to having your nintendo switch stolen vs an actual genocide happening.
Yeah, the ones I've seen have looked at things like even what type of assest the wealth is in (liquid, securities, land, etc). The type of wealth can be a factor in how well the wealth is remained.
To be clear, though, Air Senegal specifically currently flies to the US and EU.
I'd agree, but licensed content can be revoked - MS is pretty good at publishing digests of "known-compromised" ID's/Serials/Private Keys.

I'd be more concerned about any other, more important facets of a user's account/assets/property that assumes the DRM is secure, and leans on that.
A big part of my job is to ingest data from hundreds of providers to process.

A provider that will push data to my S3 bucket, as parquet files, is the best I can think of.

I don't want no provider managed database to host, stupidly huge zipped CSV dumps, or whatever weird technology the provider can think of.

Seriously reading a file from S3 and stream processing the parquet is not the peak of engineering. What is there to complain about...

Some of the insanity I had to deal with:

- 350TB of zipped CSVs which columns and delimiter vary across time, shipped on HDD by mail

- Self hosting a MSSQL server for the provider to update

- Good old FTP polling at more or less predictable times

- Fancy you-name-it-shiny-new-tech remote database accounts

- The crappy client http website with custom SQL inspired query language to download zipped extracts

- The web 2.0 rest API, billed per request

- Snowflake data warehouse data lake big data

Please, don't be that guy, just push parquet flat files in my bucket.
It ain't that deep bro
You think he's a fool, but remember that extra space in the cybertruck battery pack? That's where the CyberCoal™ add-on pack will go, which will allow customers to expel huge clouds of choking black smoke at the push of a button. Electric performance, gasoline pollution.

It might have more to do with claiming to work more than doing actual work. For example, musk claims he works 80 hrs/wk, but obviously 60 of those hours are goofing off on Twitter.

Not sure why we're arguing, but I think we are on the same side. We would prefer that products have parts which are easily replaced by, in order of preference:

1) easily-sourced commodity products like standard screws, washers, bolts, etc.
2) barring that, parts that could easily be fabricated by realistic home production methods (hand tools, FDM printing, possibly simple machining)
3) barring that, parts that the consumer can have easily fabricated by a third party (maybe it requires a 5-axis CNC but all the CAD/CAM files are available to upload somewhere like Shapeways)
4) barring that, easily-ordered at-cost OEM parts

...and in all cases the user manual should require all relevant drawings with dimensions.

The problem is that if you tell an industrial designer to keep costs down, and that they can use injection-molded plastic parts, they will almost certainly NOT design parts that are conducive to 1-3. They could, but all the incentives run the other way, so they probably won't.
The most heartbreaking thing about having broken the enigma code during world war II, is that they had to let people die, knowing they could have saved them, because saving them would have tipped the enemy off that they had broken the code.

I saw a video just this morning where he said that the chance of getting pregnant when having unprotected sex is 20%, so if you have sex 5 times and are not pregnant then you should see your doctor because something is likely wrong with your eggs or your partners sperm.

Just terrible advice.
I remember reading someone arguing exactly this 20+ years ago now, when I was obsessed with the film and thought Deckard being a replicant was so cool. It's right, it makes no thematic sense for Deckard to be a replicant, the entire point is he as a human empathizes with replicants, having him be a replicant that empathizes with replicants is pointless thematically.
Maybe it’s me that’s numb, but holy crap people are jumpy and making such a big deal, reading into an ad as if the whole of society’s problems could be decomposed from it. Shitty ad? Probably? Move on.
Many denuvo games are eventually released without denuvo and are then instantly pirated. Looks like the cost of denuvo is high enough for game publishers to stick to it just enough to reach profitability and then ditch it.
> I don't really think it's useful to do that though?? Can you give an example?

For an exercise, I had to write a system with Admins and Customers, with the ability to upgrade a Customer into an Admin, or vice versa.

My thought was to put them as two subclasses under a User superclass, so that I could put them under a single Users table, and not have to link and unlink things over the conversion. Hibernate ORM supports storing subclasses by adding an implicit discriminator field.

However, its object model specifies that a single row always corresponds to a particular instance, so it has no support for changing the subclass of a row. Ultimately, I ended up with a hacky solution of creating a new record with the primary key copied over.

> By the way, I would claim Java's sum types are less limited than Rust because in Rust, variants don't have their own type. The consequence is that you can't have functions that only accept some variant, as far as I know (I remember having this problem once), or add "methods" only to one variant... while in Java, because variants are just normal types, you can do both, and doing that is pretty damn useful.

At least in Rust, you can simulate this pretty trivially by having each variant store a struct value with all the data and methods you want. See proc_macro::TokenTree [0] for an example of this. Of course, it's not ideal in how verbose it is (though not much worse than Java!), but it can be workable on the consumer's side if you add some extra From impls.

Is there any recent research on training LLMs that can trace the contribution of sources of training data to any given generated token? Meta-nodes that look at how much a certain training document, or set thereof, caused a node to be updated?

I fear that OpenAI is incentivized, financially and legally, not to delve too deeply into this kind of research. But IMO attribution, even if imperfect, is a key part of aligning AI with the interests of society at large.
just FYI there are better techniques for finding "minimal perfect hash functions". This is an easy one to implement: https://cmph.sourceforge.net/chd.html
You seem to be assuming that we're generating large amounts of code with LLMs that we don't read and adapt and make our own. I can definitely see that as a risk for overconfident juniors, but that is not the MO for senior developers who are using these tools.

95% of the code that I add from an LLM is less than a line, a nice autocomplete. The other 5% is a function that I have ChatGPT get started for me and then I read it and refactor it until I understand it as well as any code I've written myself.

The rampant fearmongering is just weird to me. It's a tool, and like any tool some people abuse it, but it's weird that some people simply can't believe that there are people who use it well.
I think the authors are responding to a claim that AI is doing this: look, we taught them geometry, and now they know calculus! GP is saying that it's not a true zero-shot to have a separate test and training set, because the classes overlap. Similarly, the authors are saying "true zero-shot" is basically not happening, at least not nearly to the extent some are claiming.

So everyone here, including TFA, are all kinda doubting the same claim (our AI models can perform zero-shot generalizations) in different ways, I think?
This is simplified in the aphorism “you are the company you keep”.
This ad *really* reminds me of the absurdly tone deaf ads Meta ran during the Super Bowl (great breakdown by David Roth here https://defector.com/facebook-meta-asks-wouldnt-it-be-nice-t....

To me, the message is clearly "the world we are creating is going to destroy you, you relic, you outmodded worthless luddite. You will be allowed to consume through our content square." but apparently someone with severe west coast tech brain thought these two ads were somehow conveying something positive?
Whenever I see entropy run in reverse, I get a little disturbed also. The arrow of time if fixed in one direction for good reasons.
buckets of shard files are awesome. many massive pipelines doing important work use that model. it's simple and easy to program around. Inspecting data and sampling it is straightforward. Even record files (with no index) can be easily seeked and sampled. They are extremely efficient by reducing the number of inodes. Tools like LexicographicRangeSharding can be used to make the bucket object sizes more balanced.

Use sampling to make the data size more reasonable for doing local work. But, every tool I've used to deal with large data has handled large data the way I expect: either loading whole files into RAM, mapping whole files into RAM, or using fixed buffers. Typically when my work exceeds RAM, I just move to a machine with bigger RAM but still work with large shard files.
I started smoking as a teenager and almost entirely lost my sense of smell. I later spent years working in cafes and bars and did a lot of food and beverage tastings where I used my limited sense of smell to the best of my ability and got pretty good at it. Eventually I met my favorite person, who didn't smoke, so I quit and over the course of the following weeks it felt like I was regaining my sense of smell with owed interest. I found out my city smells like shit and piss, flowers can have powerful aromas you smell from some distance, and some smells had become physically distressing to me. At one point I went to my favorite person's house, commented that it smelled like old grapes when they opened the door, and found out they had burnt a scented candle called champagne dream hours ago. At the height of it I thought I would eventually learn to smell the future.

I find I filter more now but I still find a lot of stronger smells to be deeply unpleasant and I don't recall being sensitive like this as a child.

I learned to identify some smells and relate the experience to others but my notes tended to be very basic, especially compared to a friend who was working on his level two sommelier test (who was ruthlessly empirical in his epicureanism so I believe wasn't bullshiting the wine snobbery).

They should have blended all those objects then poured it into a mold.

Or gone for the fetish crowd and had shapely legs (and feet) crushing objects, then taking the dust and molding it into an iPad.

Or had a big katamari roll up all that, then transform into an iPad.

But really, the reaction to the ad is ridiculous.

I don't agree. This is only true if you think that people are deserving of a good life merely because they have a certain brain structure.

If you thought that in the first place, you weren't much of a leftist to begin with in my eyes.

e: Also - I want to be clear, variance is incredibly high even where there is heritable signal. The notion of X "can never be an astronaut because her genetically defined brain structure" and also her children is just not anywhere near supported by the evidence.
Which author presents those ideals? I think that runs counter to the "leftist" desire of equity over equality. I've never heard ex King say something to that regard. If anything it's a capitalist philosophy that "anyone can make it if they work hard enough", not a leftist one

Regardless "linchpin" is a bit much
If you're including TCP ACKs as part of the "chatty"/"required round trips" of a higher level protocol, that's bad new for a lot of things. (Which, granted, is why they made those QUIC protocols etc., but still, it seems unreasonable to single out X's protocol for this, especially since RDP and VNC are commonly used over TCP as well).

But:
> This is why things like RDP, PCoIP, etc could do full frame rate HD video 15 years ago and you still can't with X protocol over the network.

Compression is going to have a much bigger impact over a large motion than most anything else; you can stream video over HTTP 1.1 / TCP thanks to video codecs, but X (sadly i think, seems like such an easy thing that should have been in an extension, but even png or jpeg never made it in) doesn't support any of that.

> It's almost all using Xshm for anything non-trivial.

Xshm is not available over a network link and it is common for client applications to detect this and gracefully degrade.
OpenAI gets the data it needs, and publishers get prominent placement in the product:

"PPP members will see their content receive its “richer brand expression” through a series of content display products: the branded hover link, the anchored link and the in-line treatment."

There's some similarity to the search business model
Sadly, I'm no longer surprised by these kind of overreactions. We truly live in the Age of Being Offended.

The issue, I think, is that if results don't follow expectations, given the very high costs, investors might get cold feet.

Sure we already have some interesting applications, but they are not exactly printing money.
I feel like we're talking past each other somehow but I'll give it one more try.

In previous post you quoted the Dhall documentation:

> The main benefit of evaluation being finite is not to eliminate long-running programs but to make them significantly less probable. In practice, you will discover that you will rarely author a configuration file that takes a long time to evaluate by accident.

This might be practical advice, but it's not theoretically sound. It's drawing a conclusion that wasn't proven. Isn't it kind of weird to write proofs without caring about the result of the proof?
I once explored the Epigram dependently typed programming language. It used to preclude many types of free form pattern matches, due to heavy dependence on structured editor (you speciy a type, it generates pattern matching, you cannot change the structure), so it was almost completely unuseable for many, many tasks.

So, while you are formally right, the need of shortcuts in pattern matching is undeniable to me.
Angela Collier (a theoretical physicist) is also pretty harsh on him [1]. The main critique of him is that he happily keeps talking authoritatively and confidently about scientific topics that he has very little knowledge about (e.g., quantum computing).

lower down OP mentions that they got the link from a HN discussion on asyncio 2 days ago https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40287354 . i guess the upvotes are today's lucky 10,000 learning about it for the first time.
I'd be inclined to trust an engineer-turned-policymaker more to decide if and what to do about an emerging technology more than the researchers/engineers developing it or the "entrepreneurs" pushing for its development.
Not OP, but I'd guess there's greater industry awareness of relational DBs than there are of parquet files. I've been on the receiving end of a Parquet file that I didn't know how to crack open the ambiguity on how to proceed was frustrating.
Blur, summarize, anonymize, convert to bitmap/PNG, release.

edit: i am aware it is literally impossible to release information without the remote chance of whistle-sniping.

the then only logical conclusion reached from such a defeatist extreme attitude threat model is to then assume that all stories and information are false flags distributed to find moles.

the decks themselves are surely water-marked in ways cleverer than even the smartest here. that doesn't innately negate the benefit of having some iota of the raw data versus the risk of the mole being wacked.

I didn't mean to infantilize the most powerful companies abilities; after all, they encoded the serial number of internal xbox's devkits into the 360 dashboard's passive background animation, which wasn't discovered until a decade later.

am i literally shaking with anger, pacing around my room, crying, cuddling my emotional support dog, because i'm so upset at this advertisement?

no.

is it a terrible, possibly even insulting ad? yeah, I think so.

pretty clearly the original concept was "the new iPad is so thin, let's make an ad that shows all types of art compressed into a small size". And somehow that got lost in translation during production to "let's destroy objects of artistic expression, and show them all obliterated, only to be replaced by our mass-market product".

if the goal was to generate controversy, it worked. but if they actually thought this ad would go over well, they're insane, and surely there is someone in the ad meeting who spoke up and said it was terrible, and they got shut down, and right now they must feel so vindicated.
Why would bringing up sustainability of any business be comical at Hacker news?

I grew up in poverty, on food stamps. I do somewhat well for myself. My wife had a similar childhood.

We have poor financial habits that occasionally hint (I won't go so far as to say that they "threaten") at upending our lifestyle. Just having "more money" doesn't protect. Our habits would, if not kept in check, squander nearly anything. We are, in many ways, our own worst enemies. I've struggled to recognize this my entire adult life.

I think when someone starts speaking as you just have, it has as much to do with social posturing as anything. You have to say that, to show everyone else how special and empathetic you are. You understand the plight of the poor, that it isn't fair and they're "just like anyone else". That if some windfall dropped into their laps, they too would be rich forever, because that's how wealth works. And when you do this, you see everyone clapping and murmuring to each other about how enlightened you are, and you get off on that.

There are better habits. The wealthy tend to have more of them (many more), and the poor never develop those at all. Mostly, I think, because if they have these habits for any length of time, it quickly becomes incorrect to refer to them as poor. These habits can't protect against all misfortunes, but they protect against some and they mitigate the rest. And when you teach people that these things aren't true, you're doing them a disservice. You're robbing them of the one thing that might change their lives. It's both bizarre and cruel.
The tradition solution to high latency for random reads is to build an index. Sorting data by a good key is also very helpful.

I typically architect systems so taht the index is either a side-file (IE, a .idx file next to to shards), or in a database (postgres, sqlite, whatever). And I will typically have large jobs that go through and update the index periodically.
You could use data where you know it was not AI generated, like the library of Congress catalog from prior to 2015. Or highly cited research papers, things of that nature.
You've got this penchant for interpreting what someone is saying instead of just allowing them to speak for themselves. Please refrain from attaching your own biased meaning to something when I deliberately tell you what I meant to say.

Again, I don't see any response to anything substantial I've said, you're now just attempting to defame and question my credibility.

Why don't we get back on topic? According to the ICJ, as of yet, they've made no ruling about the existence of genocide in Gaza or Israel, to make such a claim in their name is false and, at this point, a intentional attempt at spreading misinformation.
The open-ness of the AI comes from the size of your marketing budget!

I sometimes print something like "8(K P)" where I think putting the number in front makes more sense. But yeah, I think if there are no parentheses, I should just print it as you suggest.
