One example that I'm working on is GPS receiver and NTP server. Accuracy requires PPS signal through GPIO. It would be possible to wire up GPS receiver board to microcontroller. But still need server to run NTPd. Or could put GPS Hat on Raspberry Pi and have everything in one unit. It will run on the cheapest $35 Pi, or extra one in my case.

Another I have thought doing is ADS-B receiver mounted outside. It helps to put the receiver close to antenna so would put the SDR and Pi in enclosure, and power it from PoE. Microcontroller can't run the SDR. Micro PC is overkill and wouldn't work in enclosure. Doesn't use GPIO pins.
It is preferable to the reflexive cynicism and nihilism that is so prevalent online. At least the supporters have put some thought into their argument.

No I didn't. Failing to adopt an IAC approach, which I have seen in my career many times, whether it's terraform or any of the other tools - comes down to organizational issues.

I'll pose a question to your snotty response - What specifically about terraform would lead to it failing to be implemented at a company? The answer to that will provide all you need.

>Now I have to pay some premium because of something that has nothing to do with the value of my company?

The value of your company is decided by the market participants with supply and demand. There's the academic idea that your company can be valued by your profits and losses, but the truth is, those more less to do with with the value of your company than the potentially demand for your shares. In other words being in an ETF may be more relevant to your stock price than the debt on your balance sheet.

>* Why do I care what the share price is or what volume of sales is occuring on the stocks around me?*

You might not care, but the other 40% might. It's tempting to think the other 40% is just amorphous group of shareholders, but it's likely it includes your business partners, or employees who will want to see the stock rise so they can eventually sell. And those partners and employees, upon learning that you aren't maximizing their shares may choose to leave, ultimately damaging your business.

In other words, once you have multiple owners, as long as the green line goes up, everyone is incentivized to continue doing well.

I think that part is still a bit ambiguous, it's almost how people and companies self-identify the role. But that said, we collect a bit of a taxonomy for our role structure, and we specifically look at Software Engineers focused on AI. The responsibilities can still differ from company to company, but that's what we used for our dataset.

No.

Wheels are a prestressed linear superposition of overall tension and a compressive load at the bottom. Generally, you'll see ~4 spokes at the bottom of the wheel relaxing to take the vertical load. (in a properly built wheel)

This is due to rims not being completely rigid, but being a somewhat flexible beam. Rims are nowhere near rigid enough to do the "hang from the top" thing.

Spokes will break at the elbow, but generally due to fatigue, which is made much worse when there are stress reversals. Fatigue is when cyclic loads cause small imperfections to grow into cracks, and eventually failure. If you have stress reversals under rolling loads (where the stress goes from tension to compression, anywhere in the spoke elbow) you should expect to see spike failures in ~1000 miles. A stress reversal doesn't necessarily mean that a spoke is slack, because there are some interesting stress patterns in the elbow in poorly built wheels.
Frankly the only new feature I read on this announcement is the "auto-lock on sudden movement" which seems like a minor evolution of a feature they had 10 years ago that does the opposite (prevent auto-lock when the device is stationary).
Honestly, I don't aim for zero downtime deploys. I simply don't care if I have a few seconds of possible service interruption during a deploy.

If I did, I'd keep it simple. I use Nginx in front of the Go server. I'd likely use the Nginx server as a load balancer and replace each Go service one at a time to have no downtime. It doesn't matter how many ports you use as long as Nginx knows the port range. It will distribute the incoming requests to the Go processes.

edit:

For those wondering why I use Nginx. It's where I terminate SSL and I also use it for simple gzip/compression/caching for outgoing resources.

I don't use Caddy or anything else. I've used Nginx for many years and it just... works.
I can't believe Mumble was even mentioned as an alternative.

Look at the subdomain: it's not just an alternative, it's the alternative the author expects you to use. Between that and the opening sentences, the author isn't exactly making a persuasive case.
I guess I see it like how I see any autofill, like the one above my keyboard on my phone right now. When I first got a smartphone and saw it, I was thrilled and messed around with it. I would play with it and see how things would go if I just spammed it to see how sentences turn out. Eventually I just cut it out even if it might save me time. I don't care about it anymore, and life isn't just about reaching the end of a sentence as quickly as possible.

However in the case of AI, I am not sure it helps me code any faster. I have to do tons of code cleanup when it messes something up and I "forgot" the logic of how the application was working because I let AI take the reins.
I think you make a lot of good points. However, I'm not sure a shortage of bus drivers can be just down to unwillingness. As far as non-office jobs go, I'd imagine it's on the comfortable end: a heated/air-conditioned space, a moderate amount of human contact, respect in the community - nothing dramatic, but not rock-bottom in the grand scheme of things. Factories have a reputation for having a more 'adversarial' culture where I live, and outdoors jobs like working for the post involve trogging off in the driving rain occasionally.

The negatives in turn: getting up at 4AM - wouldn't the preference for early hours and late hours even out over a whole city's population? I know some people who get up really early by choice, and I personally like it at night. Being responsible for dozens of human lives - that can be worn as a badge of pride. Of course you're right that it might put people off, but you just have to look to airline pilots to see an example of a culture where responsibility is held in high esteem.

Do I have a theory of my own? I don't think I can answer it, but I'd guess training and logistics might have something to do with the driver shortage problem. In Czechia, do you have to pay for your own qualification before you get the job? Also, where I am, bus operators will usually only employ people who already live near a depot - that excludes many potential drivers.
I'm talking about the people one encounters on hackernews, who are the ones I personally am most likely to actually debate these things with. I gave a specific example, the "and so are you" rejoinder to "it's just a stastical model" which, pithy though it is, implies all that I said. There are numerous examples of much lengthier and more explicit statements of that position to be found in any topic related to AI, consciousness, the recent death of Daniel Dennett, etc. If you don't hold that position then don't consider yourself among those I'm referring to, but its prevalence (or at least loudness) on HN can't be denied.

There's no "mischief" and I somewhat resent the suggestion. I haven't attempted to even argue with the viewpoint I describe, only to point out that it (and therefore also softer positions related to it) cannot currently be disproved so attempting to argue with it from a position of assuming it's irrefutably wrong is a non-starter, not that that stops many people from trying to argue with it in exactly that way.

I was trying to point out why it seems difficult and tiring to have a grown up discussion about this stuff, not misrepresent anyone's opinion.
> After a bit of time on-line retail flourish while mails became emails. In dense city, EU level density, it's a nightmare. First delivery vehicles need to be bigger and there is no place for them to stop and deliver, delivery to single home can be quick enough for a stop&go but for a condo where you might have 5-8 parcels and the delivery man it's not alone, another have also some parcels to deliver in the very same place at the very same time it's a big issue. It's an even bigger issue inside: the mailbox area is just a wall, there is no room for enough space for parcels, so it's next to impossible delivering them in a common place in an already built condo. Few might be adapted but most simply can't. Single family homes with a bit of ground around on contrary have no issues, switching from a small mailbox to a bigger parcel box is just a matter of cutting a bit more fence and insert the new "big box". It's a very simple change in society and dense cities can't adapt. Drone delivery? Try to imaging a flying drone delivering to a balcony in a condo, it's can't work, while there is not much issues having on the same big parcel box a "special" roof for drone delivery with a very visible address mark for them. Flying cars? Well, if you have a garden adapting a place for landing it's not really an issue, in a dense city? I'm curious those who have written https://www.easa.europa.eu/sites/default/files/dfu/uam-full-... what they have in their head... Even if we had eVTOLs today they are ALL but urban. They would be a perfect match for a spread area where there is room for take off and landing, and the quick run by air help to be "dense" while being spread. Back to today just see how much metros costs and how limited they are, how many parking issue, how impossible is to convert multi-storey buildings to the Green New Deal: no room for enough p.v., no root for proper heat-pump heating and so on.

Why go through all this convoluted solution when there's already a very convenient one (which I use almost daily): get parcels delivered to your nearest packet station, it could be a small corner shop (like at least 3 in my 800m radius), a larger grocer, or even automated cabinet boxes where you receive a code and pick it up.

This system works, you get your parcels conveniently delivered close by and just walk there to pick it up. No hassles or convoluted stuff like drone delivery or post workers having to deliver to each building.

It's not that hard to come with ways to circumvent system restrictions, after all, advertisers are a fierce adversary and have shown many clever ways of invading users privacy in web browsers and mobile apps. In the case of eye tracking I could see a situation where the system perhaps feeds the "malicious" app in question with a hint of which widget is being currently gazed by the user. You could then just build a giant grid of invisible widgets covering the whole app window and use that to reconstruct the all the eye tracking happening inside your app.
As Jepsen confirmed, Datomic’s mechanisms for enforcing invariants work as designed. What does this mean practically for users? Consider the following transactional pseudo-data:

[

[Stu favorite-number 41]

;; maybe more stuff

[Stu favorite-number 42]

]

An operational reading of this data would be that early in the transaction I liked 41, and that later in the transaction I liked 42. Observers after the end of the transaction would hopefully see only that I liked 42, and we would have to worry about the conditions under which observers might see that 41.

This operational reading of intra-transaction semantics is typical of many databases, but it presumes the existence of multiple time points inside a transaction, which Datomic neither has nor wants — we quite like not worrying about what happened “in the middle of” a transaction. All facts in a transaction take place at the same point in time, so in Datomic this transaction states that I started liking both numbers simultaneously.

If you incorrectly read Datomic transactions as composed of multiple operations, you can of course find all kinds of “invariant anomalies”. Conversely, you can find “invariant anomalies” in SQL by incorrectly imposing Datomic’s model on SQL transactions. Such potential misreadings emphasize the need for good documentation. To that end, we have worked with Jepsen to enhance our documentation [1], tightening up casual language in the hopes of preventing misconceptions. We also added a tech note [2] addressing this particular misconception directly.

what even is “a model”? I’m not sure there is a technical definition that corresponds to how it’s used by the tech public

- single interconnected neural network (LLM attention layers break this, autoencoders complicate this)

- single training pass (LLMs have multiple passes, GANs have a single but produce multiple models)
I don't see how that would make me feel like it was terrorism?

Terrorism isn't just things I don't like. If a group is ransoming whatever IT systems they can, for the purposes of gaining money, it just doesn't feel like terrorism to me. Unless there's some evidence otherwise, it's just extortion.

I don't like extortion, and if I suffered acute harm due to extortion, I'd be more upset, but I still wouldn't try to claim extortion is terrorism.

It's different if the ransomers are demanding that the invasion of Musicland by Bookland be stopped, and targeting infrastructure as way to get their message out, and using ransoms to help the plight of the Musicians.

Even then, some apps "know better" and are not backed up. Signal is one of the bigger offenders on this front (despite there being options for E2E encrypted / on-site backup in iOS).
If you're targeting use within software and engineering teams, that thesis may be right. If you're targeting adoption across whole businesses, I think the thesis is pretty wrong and will end up hampering adoption. To broadly bucket BI challenges, there's first the challenge of getting people to use the thing, then the challenges that come when everyone is using the thing. Tech types seem to underrate the challenge of getting people to even use a BI tool in the first place.

I've found self serve to be a really effective tool in getting engagement with BI. My onboarding for new non-tech BI users was always to have them build a basic dashboard for the business process they were most focused on. Maybe set an alert or create a scheduled report delivery. By the end of a 15 or 30 minute onboarding session you'd see the click as they realized what they could do with it.

That mess of never ending dashboards has another name: BI engagement. Though a product can help, having core dashboards and KPIs is a social and analytics leadership problem and not a technical one.

Though I have issues with Looker (their dev experience is crappy), their approach to this is effective: make it difficult for self-serve users to get incorrect or nonsense answers, and make it easy for analytics admins to designate core dashboards and jockey a few hundred custom dashboards and reports as the underlying data models change. Every business unit got pretty attached to what they'd built for themselves.

If you were exceedingly concerned about latency and audio quality it did well on those fronts. It's always had an atrocious user interface, though.
To call a person with agency and rights a "deepfake" is the most bizarre thing we have seen yet. Get back to us when you get around to reading the discussion.
Your arguments read like satire. “Yes, you see, the way to get a successful response is to be so overly specific that you begin by explaining the universe then giving the answer in full. You essentially have to spend so much time laying out the nature of the desired response that you already have to know the answer yourself. The trick is to spend so much time on it and be so detailed that you’ve wasted more time and energy (figurative and literal) to write your instructions than it would’ve taken you to think of the answer or ask someone else. And of course, we expect every user of LLMs to behave like this.”

> All the prompts you sent except the last are super short queries.

This one is particularly absurd. When I asked it for the first X of Y, the prompt was for the first X (I don’t remember the exact number, let’s say 20) kings of a country. It was as straightforward as you can get. And it replied it couldn’t give me the first 20 because there had only been 30, and it would instead give the first 25.

You’re bending over backwards to be an apologist to something which was clearly wrong.

They do show textboxes with labels. From our readme:

"Keep in mind that Tarsier tags different types of elements differently to help your LLM identify what actions are performable on each element. Specifically:

[#ID]: text-insertable fields (e.g. textarea, input with textual type)

[@ID]: hyperlinks (<a> tags)

[$ID]: other interactable elements (e.g. button, select)

[ID]: plain text (if you pass tag_text_elements=True)"

Do you see the search boxes labeled [#4] and [#5] at the top? And before you say that the tag is on a different line from the placeholder text—yes, and our agent is smart enough to handle that minor idiosyncrasy. Are you shocked? :)

You can do a monte carlo simulation in a spreadsheet without a plugin, too. For each of the inputs, create a column where the cell retrieves a random value according to the probability distribution you pick. Then, drag down 1000 rows or 10000 rows or whatever, and finally calculate percentiles based off of the outputs of each row.

A few years ago when I met my now-wife, I was paying a mortgage and she was paying rent, and we wanted to get an idea of what we could afford if we wanted to stick with the budget were were already comfortable with. So the inputs were the possible sale price of my house, the possible interest rate of the new mortgage, etc. We experienced what the article describes; while we were quite conservative about each of all of those elements, the 99th percentile was a lot less conservative than the worst-case scenario of each and every input we plugged in, and it gave us an accurate target of what kind of home price we felt we could actually afford.
