If I were a former lawyer, I wouldn't give any advice other than general knowledge.

e.g.

"Could you sue on behalf of the shareholders of your CEO's embezzlement and win? Maybe? Should you? I don't know, I'm not your attorney, and I haven't studied any of your claims."

That's about as worthless as it gets.
The most widespread standard for archiving collections of web pages is WARC - it is a publicly available ISO standard so it's very future-proof. WACZ (https://specs.webrecorder.net/wacz/1.1.1/) is a more recent take that is basically zipped WARC + index + metadata, and Internet Archive can generate them when archiving is requested (https://web.archive.org/save/).

In addition to that, I would also suggest using https://zimit.kiwix.org. It's a very compact representation that has full text index support for convenient searching, the format is open and documented, and first-party readers are available on all major platforms. And for stuff like this, Kiwix might actually be interested in adding them to their official library at https://library.kiwix.org/ if you contact them.

I think you need to take this a step further and really define your threat model instead of being despaired :)

If an attacker is able to steal a victim's cookie database, their system (or at the very least, their browser) is already deeply compromised. It is very likely that an attacker with such capabilities could prevent your website from ever sending the logout request (install a browser extension which blocks it, inject into the render process to silently drop it, modify the cached JavaScript on disk to inject code into the site, etc.). The logout functionality only works insofar as you trust the client, and in any circumstances where the client's cookies could be stolen you really can't trust the client. So logout revocation is not really a meaningful security boundary.
> They didn't hesitate to say no.

Did they give a reason?
I’ve not come across such a use case as I’ve only ever written applications where we own both the service and the clients. Thanks for the explanation.
I had the exact same thing happen years ago and I've never felt so helpless. Simple banner / color change. Ended up rebuilding the entire site from scratch it was easier.

Once you spend some time in the codebase and understand a bit of its legacy history it gets easier over time. A lot of plugins and solutions are aimed towards non-technical users and a lot of overlap. Where we might just write up some custom HTML others might install 3 plugins to make it work.
So… an LLM doesn’t actually “know” anything. It’s not actually calculating any of the variables that affect stock prices.

Have you double checked GPT-4s work? The stock most matching the pre-defined attributes really was Nvidia?
I used to use VSCode for this but then they went and effed it up by adding so much spam to the app. If I happened to have an SSH open connection previously, it just reconnects to that and makes me wait, and then I have to press buttons to get back to a blank local workspace. Or sometimes it like splash up a "We added a bunch of features you didn't need" page. Ugh.
I would challenge your assumption. Unless you absolutely need to have 100% durable, consistent revocations for some reasons, something like memcached is perfect here as the worst case scenario in case of a failure is a slight, temporary degradation in security without any visible user impact or operations nightmare (ie restoring backups). This assumes that your token lifetime is reasonably short (at least for access tokens), refresh tokens are a different story but only need to be tracked at the authn service, not globally.

Who will solve 80% of the problem by hiring archaeologist apprentices in America. (Source: friend is in an archaeology programme in Arizona. They're managing a dig in Turkey for a European museum that outsourced the task to an American consultant, which makes no sense.)
I believe it's mistake to read too much into what happens in the immediate aftermath of anaesthesia. It's a different you.

Of course those reddit videos of undying love are sweet. But, people are often very very very inappropriate. It doesn't mean much, it doesn't mean they are unbridled sexist pigs, or heading there. Post-operative recovery Nurses have good stories.

That said, older people come out of Anaesthesia a bit differently. I am told by anaesthesiologists, that older people don't always come back the same even 6 months later. If you're old you need to be prepared for this, and it can acellerate decline in cognitive function (so I am told. I am not a health professional)
It's been done again and again by funds. A new fund or fund company convinces someone with some name and reputation to come work for them and they become the name and reputation that gives some credibility and sells the new fund. Clients start by putting in just a little money and more later. Nobody knows the hard details outside of the new firm. Sometimes it goes nowhere and nobody hears of the thing again, sometimes it works out and they let nobody unaware.
Never said I was entitled to constant happiness or that I don't understand the harsh reality. I've worked tons of odd-jobs over the years in lots of different fields.

Kinda wishing I could delete this now, it was mostly doom posting since I'm dreading the upcoming sprint. I'm just deeply unsatisfied and struggling to come to terms with doing this grind for decades. I probably need professional help.

This is the interesting result where their GPT-2 sized transformer blows away GPT4 and Gemini 1.5 in connecting together facts

The difficulty of such a task is two-fold. First, the search space is large. For example, on average, each query entity connects with more than 50 facts, and each bridge entity in the ground truth proof connects with more than 900 facts. Second, there are no surface form clues to exploit and bias the search towards the ground truth proof, unlike most conventional QA benchmarks where the proof steps are transparent from the query.

To test LLMs based on non-parametric memory, we translate the facts into natural language by simple templates (Appendix F). Facts/queries for each attribute are grouped/tested separately. We test both the vanilla setup where all facts (28.2K on average) are loaded into the LLM context, and the retrieval-augmented setup (5.4K facts retrieved on average) where the two-hop neighborhoods of the two query entities are retrieved, which includes enough facts to deduce the answer. We also try both standard prompting where the model answers directly, and chain-of-thought (CoT) prompting where the model is prompted to verbalize the reasoning. We test GPT-4-Turbo and Gemini-Pro-1.5, where for GPT-4-Turbo we only test the retrieval-augmented setup due to context length limit.

Table 1:Results on the complex reasoning task. Direct/CoT: predict the answer directly/verbalize the reasoning steps. “+R”: retrieval augmentation.

Dubai isn't a very good example. If anything, it just serves as a example of the ignorance of the comments you were reading. By the time Reddit came into existence, Dubai already had an impressive skyline and had been well established as a thriving trading and business hub. It's also not in the middle of the desert. Dubai is a seaport on the Persian Gulf.

Dubai was also a well-known city in the region long before the building of the skyline. The ghost cities, Myanmar's capital and the new planned Egyptian capital are examples of trying to invent a city inorganically from scratch.
Isn't the fact that people started using WP about 25 years ago evidence against "you can always make it better"?
Ask HN: Local LLM Experience
i gave Llama 3 Instruct 7B Q8 a try using LM Studio on a 16 GB Macbook Pro w/ M2. not sure what do at first I asked it to be a dungeon master to get some creative conversation going and i'm satisfied with both the performance and creativity if not impressed (link: https://pastebin.com/raw/iM4U8skk if you're interested)

configuration:

- laptop: macbookpro m2 w/ 16 gb ram

- context length: 8192 (max)

- gpu layers: 33 (max)cpu threads: 8

response:

- time to first token: ~2s by the end of the conversation (4892 total token count)

- speed: ~7-8 tok/s

- memory usage: 13GB (system total)

- memory pressure: slightly over 50% (>90% when coding with containers)

now, these results are on par with ChatGPT 4. i compared a few general knowledge questions and coding problems, including some niche libraries, and it seem to do very well against ChatGTP 4 as well.

i want to compare your experience and wonder your opinions. is it possible to run copilot alike with a local server?
I wonder if an extension to the concept of jwt that extends the cryptographics chain down into some hardware component such as a TPM or secure enclave is the right answer. Basically the payload of the token could contain a pubkey for checking a signature on the request payload. The logout button would then have two local effects on the client side: delete the token and tell the hardware component to forget the private key.
I wouldn't call it a mess either.

A mess is if you drop a cup of milk on the carpet.

Commandeering the name of a decades old and well-known project whose only remarkable feature is anonymity, and then not making anonymity integral to the new project, is like destroying the milk factory and telling everyone to drink orange juice instead.

Yeah. Like, for example, forcing users to install the "Classic Editor" plugin to use, well, a normal editor that is more than sufficient for a blog.

Yes that's how you use tantivy normally, not sure which json config you mean.

They certainly could do that, but:

1. Most people at this sort of concert want things like this to work. I don't think there are many people who are going to buy a ticket to go just to screw with the LED wristbands. Then again, who knows, some people are unfathomably stupid.

2. It would be fairly difficult to sneak a 30W IR lamp into the concert undetected. I suppose you could do something (much) smaller and low power; maybe disguise it as a phone or a point-and-shoot camera (which concert security may or may not allow), but then you're not going to affect all that many devices. And it also might not be hard for security to find you if they can see some sort of radius of effect from where you're standing. You'd probably have to hold it up in the air, continuously, for a while.

Speaking of Canada; here the problem is the unwillingness to build, coupled with rampant immigration, fueling a real-estate bubble that is compounded by speculators (foreign and domestic). Cheap money throughout the 2000's didn't help either.

I've been told that immigration isn't a driver for the housing problems in the USA though, interestingly.
Congrats Matt! WordPress enabled lots of people to push their own boundaries in the internet. Looking forward to celebrate the next 21!

SWE-Agent: Agent Computer Interfaces Enable Software Engineering Language Models
Just for anyone who tracks down this thread later, almost all of the modern blaze implementations (now decision modeler) use a compiled sequential Java code base rather than a RETE algorithm. This is because the performance impact of maintaining the working knowledge is pretty significant, surprisingly hard to predict and there are a lot of technologies inside of modern rules engines that can make dependencies much easier to reason about.

RETE is cool and common context applications with LLMs is going to be a very interesting space that may revive this as a more general purpose technology.

> most people do not keep their gas cars filled to 100% in case they need to do that weekly emergency 300-mile drive that everyone seems to have

The behaviour is caused by "ease of resolution".

Low Petrol - 10 minutes to drive to the servo and fill up, almost guaranteed and no more worries. If a long drive, then maybe another stop.

Low EV charge - where I live, maybe you can do a quick 10 minutes somewhere and get a long way and while you're travelling find another 10 minute stop etc.

But people don't want to add extra "unknowns" - however small - in an emergency. People want certainty. People want "Problem fucking dealt with."

Emergencies don't happen often, it really isn't optimal day-to-day behaviour. But sometimes emergencies matter; for themselves, their family, or their friends.

So I don't think you'll stop this range anxiety until it is as easy - and well known to be easy - as dinojuice currently is.

Not as I understand it. When I've seen this discussed, a "logout requirement" has usually meant some stakeholder thinks they need a way to prevent previously issued access tokens from being used even though the tokens are signed by the trusted authorization server and not expired (i.e. still valid). This requirement asks that you find a way to instantly shut off access even though the auth server has previously issued access tokens that should entitle the bearer to perform actions against protected resources until the token expires.

Blocking refresh in the authorization server is trivial, but trying to implement the same on access tokens in the resource server at the point of use breaks the entire security model of JWT. It's unreliable, because now every resource server has to take on partial responsibility for authorization which multiplies opportunities for mistakes. As the OP points out, you need to keep track of some sort of block list and lose out on many of the benefits of JWT (i.e. a resource server being able to rely fully on claims in a signed token before allowing an action).

When people show up with this kind of requirement, in my experience, it is often because they foolishly configured a client with a very long expiration on access tokens (e.g. ~months/years instead of ~minutes/hours). This creates a problem when some aspect of a user's access needs to change (e.g. disgruntled employee was fired, customer didn't pay their bill, etc). You can address this more easily by pairing a short access token lifetime with a long refresh token lifetime.
The overlap between plugins is crazy. It looks like every plugin comes with an entire SEO toolkit, a performance optimizer, a firewall and the kitchen sink. Unless you're very careful, you quickly end up with an unusable house with 5 kitchen sinks, no fridge, and 1 3/4 ovens that are perpetually trying to burn one another.
They are not collected. Fans can keep them.

Maybe in some cities they were collected? Not in mine.
There was a factual statement buried in there: that there is an equal amount of extra supply to match the demand growth from people who need to live somewhere. This is simply not true — population growth is outstripping meager supply growth in most cities in the US in most other western countries. If you disagree with this statement of fact, please provide citations.

You can do what Google and everyone else does, which is store the revoked tokens. At scale this is easy to do efficiently and rarely requires a network request since the number of revoked unexpired tokens is small.

"Agile", wildly unrealistic deadlines, chronic optimism, prioritizing marketing fluff and shiny features over maintenance and user experience, weird linkedin-corporate-speak on slack, constantly worrying about performance and mediocre code I've written under pressure, it goes on.

I didn't say mortgage rates. I wasn't saying it was cheap to buy a house. I was saying that buying a house was a better investment compared to interest rates eg putting the money in the bank. I could have made that clearer.
I don't think looking at density is sufficient enough, what matters if total supply can keep up with demand. Hong Kong and Singapore are very dense, they have to be to sufficiently house the population, but it's still not enough.
Right, because people looking through their cameras at all of the chaos, flashing lights and pulsating wristbands would _definitely_ notice one human being standing there with an IR transmitter and be able to understand what they were looking at.

See my questions and comments below.
How do you figure?

Its heavily market-dependant, but assuming rent expenses = the cost of interest, from a financial perspective they are close to equivalent. If you take the money that would be paying off the mortgage to invest, you should be in a similar financial position at the end.

1-1 compariaons are hard, though, because in practice houses are huge levered bets on a RE market, so they can have huge returns if chosen well. Those are usually the kinds of markets where rents tend to be lower than the mortgage payment, however, so things might net out more even than you'd expect at the end.

Not a doctor, but I did grunt work in a pathology lab to pay through undergrad.
> the doctors and nurses, so used to taking care of living patients, stared at one another stupidly, as if not knowing why they had come together or why they stood around the table. For a brief moment, each one of us likely had the same supernatural vision, how for the past six hours, after being declared brain dead, this woman had lain under the measureless power of death. Six hours she had been officially dead. Six times had the hour hand on the clock moved – and she had lain dead. Now she had re-entered the world of the living.

I saw that reaction to death exactly two times during morgue drop offs: once from a younger L&D nurse—although I think it was more the inside of the morgue walk-in creeping her out—and once from an ER nurse with a 9 year old (asthma attack). Never from any doctor, although granted I almost never saw any doctors at all at that shitty community hospital. I don’t think it really stops being weird, I think it’s baked into our brains just like arachnophobia in some people, but I’d be concerned if an OR team, let alone a transplant team, were sitting around in silence like that. Usually they listen to the radio.

It’s fairly common for people to be paid by special interest groups and lobbyists to put their names on ghostwritten articles. It’s what got Amber Heard in trouble. I could see it happening to doctors.
