Slightly off-topic, but in many posts mentioning Bash, the overall consensus seems to be that when a script gets too big you should switch to using a more full-featured programming language instead. Which is fine, I get the reasoning.

But imagine you need to deploy a server but for whatever reason you can't use Puppet, Ansible, or other configuration management tools. You need to write a deployment script using a "real" programming language.

How would you tackle the problem using Go, for example? Does anyone have examples of deployment or install scripts written in Go, Rust, or whatever else?

Thinking out loud I assume you would need a zypper (assuming openSUSE) package with Repository and Package structs and their methods, a secrets package to handle getting secrets from your secrets manager and setting them, and I'm drawing a blank on everything else.

As a system admin I picked up Go a few months ago to slowly reduce my Bash usage, but I still find myself using Bash whenever I have to write a install script because of how easy and fast it's to write compared to other languages.
it's the same for htop
So I guess this article is sponsored by the producers of the new movie as damage control?
There is actually a specific approach of this concept for generating synthetic data for training datasets called UDAPDR[0].

It or something like it could likely be applied to any form of generation including what you are describing.

I don't know if it's my queries, the situation of the web, or something internal to it, but my impression is perplexity is becoming less and less useful as time passes.
There's another name [0] for the "business cycle" and it doesn't rely on superstition either. Unfortunate that theory predicts those crises will trend getting worse and worse until the eventual breakdown of the system.

What you often see is "Someone could sue you for X, so you better not do it." This is technically true, but what they should say is "Someone could sue you for X, but they would lose".

In the US you can sue anybody you want for anything under the sun. Saying "someone could sue you for that" is always true. There is a huge gulf between bringing a lawsuit and actually winning said lawsuit.

You also see disingenuous case citations to try to support an otherwise unsupportable point. "20 years ago a trespasser successfully sued the homeowner for injuries sustained on the property." Not mentioned in that previous blurb: "The trespasser was injured when the homeowner shot him with a shotgun without warning."
It might not be, but I couldn't find much about the topic so I figured I'd write it up and share. And you're right that this may be a bit of whack-a-mole, but for now I've cut my bandwidth down which means I may be able to downgrade my cloudinary plan to a lower tier, which is a big win for me since it accounts for like 20-30% of my total operating cost
To be fair, designing a world model or a proper knowleddge representation system would go more into the foundations of mathematics that would likely require a literal genius to figure out. We'd be right back to the failures of symbolic systems during the AI Winter in the 90s.
I wish they had data on which models were sold. Maybe we would see something relating to cheaper and smaller EVs?
Not to mention that if it's really needed, the LLMs this is made for also excel at converting CURL commands to whatever spec pretty trivially. I've used them this way on a few occasions.
I think the horse left the barn a long time ago with the concept of gatekeeping English. Now, it's just a label of a dialect. Queen's English vs Newfie vs Geordie vs American Mid-Atlantic vs Southern vs Bostonian vs vs vs
Well yes, besides the fact that there's absolutely zero proof for it they're also not bothering with that basis anymore.

If a news agency is anything other than a stenographer for their propaganda, they must be banned. Same thing any other fascist government does.
A few kilometers of snow is easily crossed by skis or snowshoes. Every cabin in Norway used to be accessed like that (changing now the last 2 years, where people now mostly expect to drive to the door). But still skiing a few kilometers is a basic life skill to me, especially if one is going to be going into the woods in the wintertime... At least from 10-12 years of age.
In NY, the state parks will be heavily regulated having designated pay for/reserved camp spots along with amenities. However, the forest preserves (Adirondacks/Catskills) and state forests do allow backcountry/primitive camping.

Just look for a nearby state forest and look up the dec regulations for that site. More than likely you can can primitive camp there.

The physical keyboard is king! For a long time I was looking for a modern alternative.

The 'GPD P2 Max' comes close and for me hits the sweet spot of offering a small size while not deviating too much from a comfortable typing experience, but it has a fan and I wish the battery lasted longer.
I remember being really impressed by a tour guide I worked with in the early 2000s who ran his business from a Nokia Communicator that ran more or less the same software but with a cell modem included for e-mail. Very slick.

Re-Native Americans, Luckily, both law and society have improved in the 200 years since the 1800's when Spain annexed Alta California.

I assume you think the forceful taking of native lands by the government was bad, so why do you think it is good to roll back the clock and justify doing it today?

There is an inherent contradiction here. It cant have been bad to do then, but good to do now.
This is something I was considering as well - thanks
The short supply is because plutonium-238 is difficult to make in relatively pure form. It's found in spent power reactor fuel, but only in tiny concentrations and mixed with much larger quantities of other plutonium isotopes.

The United States started making Pu-238 in useful quantities again last year:

https://www.ornl.gov/news/pu-238-shipment-quantity-opens-tap...

https://www.energy.gov/ne/articles/us-department-energy-comp...

The process requires irradiating neptunium-237 (itself a small portion of spent nuclear fuel, requiring special chemical separation) in a government reactor.

It's also true that Pu-238 is dangerously radiotoxic if inhaled or ingested, but that's true of every material that provides a useful quantity of decay heat, including the americium-241 alternative used in this new mission.

The primary advantage of using Am-241 over Pu-238 is that it's easier to recover from spent power reactor fuel; there's more of it in spent fuel than Pu-238, and it's the most abundant isotope:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotopes_of_americium

Which means that Am-241 can be separated chemically from old fuel and does not require any additional nuclear treatment before use as a radioactive heat source.
Why do you think TikTok is ignoring robots.txt? This site is disallowing a lot of crawlers via User-Agent matching, but not ByteSpider.

The burglar case of course is silly, but there are plenty of personal injury cases for things like slip & fall on private property, a reckless driver damaging a parked car, etc. where a reasonable person might think "that's bullshit, the property owner shouldn't be responsible" but they end up having to settle.

The problem is a discrepancy between the law as written and the law as practiced. It results in inconsistent law.
I'd add PyMadCAD, to those already mentioned.

My hope is the rescheduling will permit proper research into the pros/cons so we have a better idea of all this. It's hard to do most clinical trials on a Schedule 1 substance.
ClaudeBot (second worst crawler) and GPTBot are the only ones that identify themselves in an obvious way. The rest I am blocking by network. I assume AI when the crawler is very aggressively downloading images - it must be costing them an absolute fortune!
How in the world would this be tested? Anything pertaining to game logic needs to be deterministic.

I can't see LLMs in games being used for anything more than some random NPC voice quips. And whose voice would be used? Would voice actors be okay with this?

There are already too many bad games, we certainly don't need thousands more with AI-generated drivel dialogue, although having human writers is not a panacea either way.

yep, all of those articles are from May 2024. But I remember what he was saying in 2022 as I'm sure many other people on HN do - saying that the x-risk is ridiculous, these systems are fundamentally not very capable, etc. etc.

Now he's posting approvingly of people saying Sam Altman is imposing extinction risks on us all.
The studios and the viewers know what they mean - if you see a giant explosion, was there a real giant explosion or was it created by CGI?

The links above show that the explosion was real, the side parts were CGI; so we call that "practical" even though much of the scene "by volume" is CGI.
Unsafe is a daunting language feature, but ultimately it’s a feature. You’re meant to use it if you need it.

You don’t need to outsource complexity anywhere. Rust is fully capable.
This is a phenomenon in so many different jobs, and is called “alarm fatigue”. From https://www.nytimes.com/2010/08/01/weekinreview/01wald.html:

> On Tuesday, the National Transportation Safety Board said that a crash last year on the Washington subway system that killed nine people had happened partly because train dispatchers had been ignoring 9,000 alarms per week. Air traffic controllers, nuclear plant operators, nurses in intensive-care units and others do the same.
There is a small fortune spent on private education. After school classes, tutoring etc etc. The money is spent by the upper middle class and above. If this solution works better for some subset of those people, it will take off in that market.
It will just learn your formula and won’t generalize to anything else. It would essentially have to unlearn it when you started training on English so it would make training slower.
For me the interesting part is that the crawler is going bezerk. Never ever should a single crawler be the cause of 80% of traffic.

Also why should they not respect the 403? Crawlers just go to anything they can find. It is not a targeted attack.
Perhaps that's due to waiting for the refreshed Y?
100% true. The cult of land ownership is one of the most absurd norms in almost the entire world modulo the few nomadic peoples still around. It’s not just unjust and unsustainable but simply not pragmatic, judging by all exceptions: air space, pollution, zoning, rivers, damming, emergency access etc etc.

From a human development perspective, what makes sense is to define usage rights. If you’re using the land for X I can use it for Y. This originates in the principles of refining nature: for instance if I build a boat out of a log, then it reasonably becomes my property because of the human labor that went into it. Where to draw the lines between when, where and how nature gets refined enough to get usage rights can’t easily be deduced from principles, and will vary across regions and cultures. For instance in sparse regions you can afford a larger buffer zone around dwellings. Even within a country (like the US) human lifestyle varies so much that it’s reasonable to have different rules in different places.

Perhaps people are married to the concept of owning land so much that the wording cannot be changed. But it’s already obvious that nobody owns the land, the rivers, the lakes, the air. It’s absurd that it’s illegal to walk in the wilderness because of an imaginary line in the sand.

I’m from a country with freedom to roam, so I have my bias. That said, to its credit the US has despite its strong private land ownership laws, an amazing and vast set of national-, state parks and BLM land. So from an access-to-nature POV, it’s an incredible country overall.
The idea is that teachers can use it with students.

For parents who want to use it with their children, $4/month (for your entire family!) is very small compared to anything out there that you want to use to supplement your kids education (other than Khan Academy itself, which is free). Is it affordable to poor families in Bangladesh? No, but the barrier to sponsorship is low: "for $50K a year you could sponsor it for 1000 families in Bangladesh" is not a difficult sell.

Also, I expect Sal to raise funding to give it for free to those who can't afford it (just as he did with Khan Academy). At least it's not some VC-backed venture that we know is going to be look for a 10~100x return, so we can be thankful for that.

I don't think it's okay having to have relied on internal escalation either. The problem is that critical dependencies like payment processing and platform distribution can just destroy you at the whim of a false-positive flagging from an algorithm. You're then left with no recourse.

Having everyone pay for support that actually delivers would be fine in theory, but that doesn't really work out either. It would just punt the problem down until you hit it again. Even if you're paying for support, you're still likely to hit a human who just regurgitates a script at you and is unable to resolve the issue. Oftentimes, escalation is needed. If your support agent is unwilling to escalate, back channels are the only option. Having internal friends raise a fuss is one method that sometimes works, but going viral on Twitter/HN are other ways that people accomplish this.

The reality is that people who are more well-connected have advantages. Someone with a large social media following or a business that's more well-known will always get better support than someone unknown. I don't know what the solution to this would be.
This is how I use it as well. It is a convenient way to encode a hint about the power source into the base word. A slight refinement of the language and a good example of how languages evolve over time to better suit the era they are in.
The market has saturated probably. I look out of the window and I see Model 3s everywhere. I bought one this year, too.

I think you underestimate how badly people mess this up now, with piles and piles of cron jobs and timers all configured to run at 1/5/15/60 minute intervals.

If other things did this there would not be "more collisions", since the status quo is multiples of 5 minute intervals everywhere.
FYI, in Chrome on Linux, there's a glitchy crackling noise. Maybe a buffer under run or something. It happens a lot more often if you strum lots of strings quickly.

It also happens in Firefox but a lot less.
A lot of that is just land use policies. When you look at the average American household budget, it makes sense. The #1 and #2 are housing and transportation followed by taxes. Climate change and ecological catastrophes, mental illness are really land use policies in disguise or at least can be explained partly.
I didn't really get Fury Road. Why were people spraying silver spray paint in each others' mouths? What was the societal demand that was answered by the heavy metal blitzkrieg of chopped up cars? It was all just a little too much for me. I thought the protagonist was great, it was just all of the extra psychotic flash-bang stuff they added on top that I didn't like.
The very people you are talking about that "don't have problems" are spending money and effort to get their kids to do even better, get into better schools etc. It's not some binary fine/not fine thing. They view it extremely differently to how you appear to be viewing it.
While this wasn't available in 1985, if it's a pile of parts that add up to, say, Addams Family Pinball, then that's the going rate for at least 1.5 grams of weapons-grade plutonium from the DoE last I checked (NRC and possible state fees not included).
Can you really call JSON a programming language? Or for that matter...XML?

In my case, Tesla just don't make the car I want. If they made a hatchback variant of the Model 3 and gave it physical controls, I'd probably buy it. But I don't want a Model Y - it's ugly, I really don't want an SUV, and I'm not a fan of touchscreens in cars. But I've also heard from friends that they don't want to buy a car associated with Elon Musk, so perhaps that is also hurting their sales.
It's not just where you pluck the string: most electric guitars have a "neck" pickup and a "bridge" pickup (sometimes a third in the middle). The neck pickup is closer to the middle of the string, and the bridge pickup is close to the end of the string. Regardless of where you pluck, the bridge pickup has a significantly more prominent high-end, to the point of being a bit shrill when played in isolation. Typically rock guitarists play rhythm with the neck pickup so they don't overpower the vocalist, then lead with the bridge pickup so they cut through the mix without needing to amp the volume too loudly.

Why is this the case? It is funny that my guitarist's intuition seems very clear about it - "the string is tougher and clickier at the bridge compared to the neck, of course the tone is more shrill" - but in terms of actual analytical evidence I just have to say "something something Fourier coefficients" :) Refining the physical intuition a bit: I believe the boundary at the end of the string dampens lower-frequency (i.e. lower-energy) vibrations faster than higher-frequency vibrations, so the lower harmonics die off more quickly than the higher "nasal" harmonics.
From what I've seen the "rocket motor" motor was mostly due to the packaging on the hobby rockets. Another example of how a single company can make a huge impact not only on society, but language itself.
You can primitive/dispersed camp at most forests in the NE. However they all require being far from a road. The best you can do is park and hike in.

I think over the time GPUs will become cheap or some other break through will make running LLMs cheaper. Then this fee won't be required.

If the stress is too severe you'll have trouble, maybe you split the whole team up, maybe one person quits, etc. Maybe somebody files a lawsuit.

Note a few percent of people commit suicide in basic training because of the severe stress involved. https://www.armytimes.com/news/your-army/2020/09/21/fort-sil...

Encounter groups (e.g. "T-Groups") got a bad reputation in the 1970s because they could put people under extreme social pressure.

A few years back (before Ozempic) I'd had an incident where I developed a psychogenic fever after extreme stress which caused me to lose about 15 pounds. (The psychogenic fever is caused by the nervous system activating oxidization of brown fat, which can persist for a few weeks)

I've made some half-hearted attempts since to induce a psychogenic fever including attempts at biofeedback with a thermometer. If I just had some way to measure the tone of the neurons that go to those brown fat cells... Thing is, anything I could expose myself to get extreme stress would be pretty unpleasant, never mind dangerous.

I bet you could cause enough stress by getting 20 people to bully one person in an encounter group over the weekend but that's the kind of experiment you'll never get past the human subject review board.
It is not an excuse.

The maintainer can decide what to do about it. Whether or not that is the wrong decision is a different issue. (Anyways, there are many other reasons why it might not be maintained, than only due to receiving such a email message; e.g. because you are injured or because you have other work to do (which is what is mentioned in the README.md file anyways), or whatever other reason that maybe other people don't necessarily know.)

Nevertheless, some people who will maintain the project (not necessarily this one, and not necessarily) should do so even if people send such bad messages. That does not mean that everyone will; what they decide to do about messages they receive is their own choice. This is why FOSS is important; you can fork the project and make your own modifications, if you disagree with the maintainer.
> Russia's world's second best navy

That seems like a massive exaggeration. The Russian navy wasn't that great even before the war. I'm not sure they really have anything going for them besides their submarines, even their single aircraft carrier is permanently under repair and won't reenter service any time soon. Even the Royal Navy is probably significantly strong even on its own.

I have looked around quite a bit but haven't really found anything that strikes the right balance for me of features, cost, effectiveness, etc.

I've been sort of building my own system in Go which is already a big improvement on the Python-based solutions, but it's nowhere near ready for this type of thing. But it uses Go-colly and go-readability for web scraping.
