I'd never call myself a JS dev but have used it to develop web pages on the side. this list shows me how little I really understand the more intimate details of JS. I'd personally love to see a variation of this for C/C++/C#.

And in all fairness, "stuff no one should ever need to worry about" is prime interview material for jobs. Though there's so many formats of technical interviews you never really know.
With the super charger network in the United States, renting a Tesla isn't all that bad of an idea. I've taken very long trips in my Model 3, with a lot of unplanned wandering, so I know it's possible. That's not to say it's the same as when you're doing that sort of thing in an ICE. More options for refueling means less stress when you're dealing with unknowns.

But road tripping isn't bad either - at least with a very minimal amount of planning. On my most recent one trip, we could still make room for spontaneity. It just changed when and where it happened. We'd start the drive by first finding a super charger that was about as far as we wanted to go that day, then explore the map for routes that seemed interesting and had chargers along the way, making sure to arrive with about 20-25% charge each time. Worked great, and we were able to explore and not feel "trapped" by the route or anything. The closest call we had was when we arrived with about 5% charge once, and that was due to a headwind and elevation gain we hadn't anticipated.

Come to think of it, I once ran out of gas on a road trip for not doing this exact same sort of exercise. I had assumed there'd be services along the leg we picked, and we actually ran out of gas about 10 miles away from the nearest gas station. I had to hitch hike in blasting cold wind for about 2 miles, then pay the gas station employee's brother to drive me back to my car. For 10 miles, all that guy could talk about was "women with fat butts." I haven't thought about that experience for 2 decades probably, so, thanks? I guess.
I imagine such a laser could blind an enemy soldier nearly instantly from miles away. Is that against international law?
Yes, and that's why Java and C# use pretty much this exact approach (without the acceleration part, to be fair) for their Iterator/IEnumerator that power their for-each loops.
I guess you're also protesting against skyscrapers?
In a turbulent week for the Biden campaign, the release of the New York Times/Siena poll has sent shockwaves through the political landscape. The poll, often considered the gold standard, revealed that President Joe Biden is trailing in almost every battleground state, with a particularly staggering 13-point deficit in Nevada.

If you're looking for a more powerful version of ChatGPT Data Analysis, I recommend https://julius.ai/.

If you're looking for a version of ChatGPT Data Analysis, but want to offer it to your customers, take a look at us! https://www.lightski.com/ (disclaimer: I'm the co-founder.) We're building this feature of ChatGPT, but in a way that you can embed inside your app, so that your end-users can get an AI Data Scientist without needing to export data, then import it into ChatGPT or Julius.
An Arizona woman has been accused of helping generate millions of dollars for North Korea’s ballistic missile program

Obviously the whole thing is illegal regardless but there was no evidence of the above claim in the article. I can't tell if it's real or if it's like those old propaganda claims that buying drugs is funding terrorism.

The charges in this case should be a wakeup call for American companies and government agencies that employ remote IT workers

Certainly reads more like government/corporate propaganda than an objective report.
V0 by Vercel does essentially this using the RadixUI components as the declarative primitives to generate components
There's no such thing as "canonical UTF-8". You can ask about canonicalizing Unicode, regardless of the byte encoding, and no, there's no cheap way.
you can easily generate reams and reams of long division text if you so choose, and i'd assume openai has done so to get to this point
It is so much easier to do it in a chat interface and iterate on the exploratory analysis... copy/paste back and forth from a notebook is terrible.
Besides yet another "damn, Javascript is whack" article, I thought a lot of the details were actually really interesting, and stuff that I either outright didn't know or had just forgotten because I use TypeScript and a lot of these thing would make the TS compiler complain.

For example, I can't remember the last time I used the `var` keyword, and I had either forgotten or never really realized it had subtly different semantics compared to `let` and `const`, e.g. with respect to hoisting rules.
One data point: teenagers can drive cars but are rarely hired as developers. I haven’t quite thought it through enough to conclude that driving is easier though.
Well done. Matching the HN style with Tailwind is a nice touch.

One thing I've been wanting for with search in general, especially LLM-powered, is having some kind of date relevance - especially with the fast moving world of technology.

For example I want to know how ProductX and ProductY compare. Last year ProductY didn't have FeatureZ, but they implemented and announced it last month. There might be several comments lamenting the lack of FeatureZ from 2 months ago, but they shouldn't be considered with the same weight now that it does exist.

I don't have any ideas for how this should be done but it's something I'd like to see tackled in RAG systems in general, and wanted to put it out there.
was just having a chat about this in a recent 1:1

I've been at my current role for almost 7 years. Many of the best lessons I've learned have come from the pain of maintaining and fixing my own mistakes.

Sometimes it can take 2 years just to tell if a decision you made was good or not.

The reflectivity can't just be good, it needs to be nearly perfect across a wide spectrum. At high power levels, even 99% reflectance isn't good enough and that won't be practically achievable for most weapons in any case.

I am a reasonably competent python coder, yet when I see stuff like this I regard it with the same suspicion as a switch in the "more magic" position.

https://www.catb.org/jargon/html/magic-story.html
Python actually does something pretty neat: it chains comparisons so that `x < y <= z` is like `x < y and y <= z` except y is only evaluated once

In linked code we can be confident that `0 <= 1`, so only `1 < ndim` should matter. In fact I'd expect peephole optimization to remove most of the code for `0 <= 1`
Yet I can learn there is a distinction between different spectra that happen to result in the same nerve impulses. I know if I have a certain impulse, that I can't rely on it being a certain photon. I know to use tools, like the AS7341, to augment my answer. I know to answer "I don't know" to those types of questions.

I am a strong proponent of LLM's, but I just don't agree with the personification and trust we put into its responses.

Everyone in this thread is defending that ChatGPT can't count for _reasons_ and how its okay, but... how can we trust this? Is this the sane world we live in?

"The AGI can't count letters in a sentence, but any day not he singularity will happen, the AI will escape and take over the world."

I do like to use it for opinion related questions. I have a specific taste in movies and TV shows and by just listing what I like and going back and forth about my reasons for liking or not liking it's suggestions, I've been able to find a lot of gems I would have never heard of before.
"The study reviewed current literature on wind farms, as well as using real construction data to take into account everything from the manufacturing of individual turbine parts, to transporting them into place, to decommissioning the entire wind farm at Harapak"

I wonder if they take into account the footprint of storage. It should be noted that if wind is used as a serious replacement for non-renewable energy or nuclear then it must have associated installed storage capacity which I would say should be considered an inextricable component of its carbon footprint.

One of his forum users posted the official death report (from 2021) in April 2024. He came out of nowhere to announce that, yes, he already had that report, he obtained it last year, and words words words about how right he was to not even mention it until his hand was forced.

No "I'm sorry for leading everyone on this whole time" or "RIP Byuu" because the guy's a sociopath concerned mainly about the reputation of himself and his site. But even raging sociopaths don't deserve null-routing.
I hope for the code to read the library database. Perhaps I'll be able to debug what's broken in mine and fix it so I can use it again.

Ask HN: Where are human/resident/citizen-only online convos available?
With LLMs and foreign troll farms and bot nets, it seems it would be valuable for Americans, or any country's citizens, to have conversations that more or less can be relied on to be carried out by their fellow citizens. For global contexts, the ability to have conversations with very-likely-to-be-human-beings also seems increasingly desirable.

Is this being worked on? Seems like a business opportunity to provide independent proof-of-human in digital form.

Centralized and distributed approaches all appeal. Whatever happened to the Web of Trust?
Never fall in love with a corporation.
The “PDF software” is great for basic tasks like these — you don't even need to write any code, just use pdftk or mutool. It's the Web that is full of junk semi-malware tools that prevent people from finding the right solution.
Furthermore, it’s increasingly clear that OpenAI is doing a “bottom-up” challenge to Microsoft and Google. I would not be surprised at all if OpenAI launches an email service to compete with Gmail, imbued with a fine-tuned model that is optimized specifically for working with email. And then a document editor… and a spreadsheet… etc. There is huge money in productivity software. Microsoft 365 generates the bulk of the “cloud” revenue on Microsoft’s P&L. IIRC, worldwide revenue from Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 - and whatever other minnows can survive underneath them - is supposed to reach $40B by 2030. I apologize for not providing the source.
It’s totally different from the noise a wind turbine makes. Watch a video of what it’s like on YouTube. Road noise can also be mitigated in many ways and in many areas it is - based on the surface, walls, etc. But also consider that we expect that urban areas have a degree of noise, but we also generally expect that serene natural spaces are free of those things to a greater extent.

What open source AI chat UI exists now that has the level of usage of ChatGPT?

I love open source but their very nature suggests there is no one open source model that will have the critical mass to just be a straight in replacement for ChatGPT and its UI.

I use Ollama and choose models and they are close to GPT-4 but OpenAI is speeding up into making a useful chat product. All the rest are foundational model demos.
There aren't foolproof methods, but effective enough methods.
In the same way that I would hope you would understand the problem with submitting 10000 drop shipped factory-made bowls or sweaters to a hand made competition or exhibition, I hope even if you appreciate AI art on the merits you can understand the frustration and challenges with trying to create them out of spaces intended for art created without AI.
AIMP3 is still in regular development for windows and Android and for me at least seems to nicely emulate winamp in UI, skins, plugins and extra features. I have fond memories of Winamp, but I don't miss it.
The way ChatGPT Data Analysis works is that ChatGPT generates python code that does the transformation step. Because python code is static and deterministic, you can always re-run the code to get the exact output over and over again. If you want it rolled back, just re-run the code, but run fewer lines of it.

In fact, this is probably more accurate than custom UIs that log actions you take, since to build that UI, engineers need to make sure each action is logged (and it's easy to forget to log one!).
I would suggest not getting your knowledge of the world from the titles of upvoted HN posts and instead do your own research.
Kenda booster & rush. Continental race king. Maxxis Aspen & Aspen ST. Schwalbe RRs, Vittoria Mezcal, S-works Renegade & fast track, Pirelli Scorpion. Basically every MTB tire manufacturer makes an XC race tire in the 600g range. Some are below 600g, some are above 600g (but below 700g). Just look at the list on the website this thread is under.

The Constitution fails to prohibit parallel government. Obviously, doing so could not prevent wholesale replacement of the Constitution and US government, but it would prevent the current situation where we've got parallel extraconstitutional government while the Constitution is still in legal force and supposed to be defining our rights.

Parallel governance could be prohibited through a positive definition of rights applying to any actor that might infringe (similar to say, the prohibitions regarding homicide). This would allow for a straightforward balancing of equity between conflicting rights, rather than the current "axiomatic" approach where any given right tends to be found to apply fully or not at all.

It's hard to imagine that this is a very useful article without discussing sex differences when it comes to motivations for infidelity.
I’m not an “armchair” weapons expert. I’m actually trained in weapons design (guidance systems mostly). This is a moronic waste of money and “engineers and scientists” who worked on it have no illusions whatsoever about that, I can assure you. It might be able to defeat something “Hamas grade” or a Mavic with an RPG taped to it, but it’s absolutely useless against any even remotely serious adversary or even something as pedestrian as a modern (where by “modern” I mean made in the 80s or later) wire guided ATGM, which both itself rotates and flies along a pseudorandom spiral trajectory. Try engaging that with your high energy barrel of MIC pork.
Most definitely but it's complicated.

Honestly I wonder if a lookalike will simply continue on. I know it's conspiratorial but Putin has looked a lot healthier.
Even if you knew it was "valid Unicode", that still doesn't gain you much. There is nothing you can do with a "valid Unicode" string without any extra context that you can't do just as badly as with a byte string.

And I'm putting "valid Unicode" in quotes because it's very much possible to have a string composed of well-defined Unicode code points that are nevertheless not a valid string in any meaningful sense, e.g. a string composed exclusively of LTR markers or accents.
I don’t own a Tesla.
This is only true on the energy and transportation sides of emissions. Some processes like the creation of cement and refining of steel create CO2 through chemical processes, regardless of the energy source.
It’s clumsy wording. I took the intended meaning to be:

“This data is from New Zealand, replacing gas turbines, but many countries will also be replacing fossil fuel generators and have similar numbers.”
I pity the users who have to put up with an AI trained on my slack conversations ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Part of Tumblr's downfall also comes from their change of stance on NSFW contents.
Suppose you have some natural language analysis question like “how many users clicked on x product?”. In the demo, there’s always a ‘clicks’ table and the LLM just gets it right. In the real world, that product has multiple links on multiple platforms some of which represent a prefetch and also that product really comes in multiple skus so do you want all of them bla bla bla. It would already be helpful without AI to better document how a table works but it doesn’t happen and there are already better ways to document tables than natural language which nobody uses so I doubt businesses are just going to suddenly be great at documentation. The LLM will get the wrong analytic answer because it doesn’t know how anything works, which makes the analytic tools not very useful.
So slimy that this isn't instead an opt-in!
I wish Swift grapheme oriented strings had been in the comparison. I think he blows off the grapheme level too quickly.
Social licensing costs are just costs and won't go away just because you really really dislike them.

Besides, even if you could wave a magic wand and delete such costs, like the Chinese government can with their top down control of planning and media, it's still worse, as their revealed preferences demonstrate with their acceleration of renewables build-out and slowdown of nuclear build-out.
It's no skin off my nose either way, but I don't understand why you would want to take a nice slim desktop application and turn it into another web application that runs in a bloated browser. Seems to defeat the purpose of winamp at that point.
I think OpenAI is targeting clear enterprise use-cases for what they're building into ChatGPT. Data Analysis is a clear enterprise use-case. So, if a feature helps them sell ChatGPT Enterprise, I think they'll build it, since that's a large revenue driver for that.

Consumer-focused wrapper startups like jenni.ai, research helpers, or math tutors I doubt they'll focus on, since most of the revenue is in enterprise.
XMMS is the O.G. but audacious and Qmmp now also support classic winamp skins.
There are several issues that make the KV cache as-is unsuitable for caching across requests. First, it requires the cached tokens to be in the exact same position in the sentence, this means it's mainly only useful for autoregressive generation where the prefix is always the same. Second, it is extremely big, so without some sort of compression, the cost to store it between requests and the time required to transfer the data to the GPU will outweigh any compute savings.
Yes, thos is definitely the signal that capitalism eill determine the value.of AI.

SAME way.google search is now a steaming garbage.pile.
> It's not wild, it's the requirement of the statute: if an agreement says an issue goes to arbitration, the courts are required to send it to arbitration; there's no discretion allowed.

I'm not a lawyer, but there seems to definitely be some discretion allowed. In fact, the McGill rule is often cited as being a litmus test[1]. Honestly, in the Tesla case, and why I said it's wild, is because Tesla is still selling cars touting full self driving[2]. The injunction here would presumably bar Tesla from selling (or at least advertising) FSD in the interest of public good. In other words, I think the judge got it wrong.

Again, I'm not a lawyer, so I might be misunderstanding something, but that's my take.

I'm as good of a mechanic as a diy gets. I've rebuilt entire auto transmissions instead of just sticking in another unit. I've regearied rear ends (which did get interior bearings while there). I do head gaskets as favors to friends.

And archeologists limit their picture of the past to the evidences they have at a given point in time, although they know what they have is a very limited and degraded record of what actually happened.

The article is very comprehensive, and it even reports the rare biphase that some districts in Rome have, the only reason I know it is because many solar inverters works with this biphase, it can cause problems with car chargers (as the article reports) but also to some gas boilers that are very common in Italy.
> Is it possible to cheaply canonicalize UTF-8? Or is a full parse/validation unavoidable if all you need to do is a substring search?

Even if it was, it wouldn't help you. Implementing search over unicode text properly requires locale-awareness and cannot be done by comparing codepoint sequences, even after canonicalisation.
Because it used to be difficult to find a Pi in stock.

But now it isn’t.
They realize it, they just don't want it to exist, and have a vested interest in muddying the waters of discourse such that most people remain unaware of it, or mistrust it in principle. For a few years they've been actively campaigning to have protections like Section 230 repealed and have all social media platforms (with some arbitrary number of accounts) be taken over and regulated as utilities by the government.

There are companies that make battery packs the sizes of small ice coolers that can serve as a charging “hub” on your truck.

Plus there are trucks like the f150 lighting that have electrical outlets so you could recharge in the field.

Thirdly, with 1-2 spare batteries that you can swap and charge, you basically have zero downtime.
