First time huh? That's surprising. It's only mentioned every time Firefox and Mozilla come up.

I'm sure Google would like a slightly healthier captured 'competitor' but that doesn't mean that they didn't put them in this place through subversive practices.
15 years ago, lots of things were possible. Most people were using firefox, it had like 30 or 40% market share.
But this implies that you have to guess when and where to DRY, which basically implies that there's no good way but via experience and domain knowledge!

That's not what people want to hear - they want a silver bullet; a set of criteria for which DRY'ing could be determined from the onset!
Ask HN: How to transcribe 1000s of handwritten notes
I have 10 years’ worth of journals.

My handwriting is not great!

None of the off the shelf solutions come even close to recognizing my handwriting.

Can you think of anything better than just opening every single file and manually transcribing it?

I have been thinking about training a model to first divide the images into lines of text. Then, it will be easier to transcribe, and automatically those transcriptions will be associated with areas of the image, in case I figure out a good handwriting model.
End users do not care about the browser engine. But as I said, Brave is trying. It won't be successful in the way FF could have been.

I think the only reasonable way to use GraphQL on a freely accessible server is to only allow a set of whitelisted queries, ideally automatically extracted from the frontend codebase, stored on the server and invoked by id and arguments.

This essentially turns GraphQL into a DSL for implementing REST endpoints, which is still a useful thing since it allows to write the REST endpoint with only knowledge of the GraphQL API rather than knowledge of the whole backend architecture, which is generally useful if the backend and frontend are written by different people or teams.

That's the way Facebook uses it on their main website: they pass the query id in the "doc_id" form field, the arguement in the "variables" field, the server gets the actual GraphQL query based on the doc_id from some sort of internal dictionary and AFAIK no GraphQL query string ever goes on the wire in production.

The Future of Space Computing
Carrying on from that first sentence:

"in the center of the galaxy, stars are only 0.4–0.04 light-years apart"

The most luminous stars going by Wikipedia are about 5 million times brighter than the Sun. Not sure if those are anywhere near galactic centres though.
At that point you've recreated the exact same problems many here are complaining about, N+1, authorization on leaf nodes, ability for the client to create queries that are hard to optimize, etc...
This study focuses on adolescents because they have data available for a large cohort. I’m curious what one would find with adults.

I’m morbidly curious what the world’s various intelligence (espionage) outfits have attempted, studied, and concluded in terms of manipulating large numbers of people via the internet.

Many negative tropes I see repeated ubiquitously online make me think about mass demoralization, anger, hopelessness, etc.

I realize this may seem off topic to some, this is just where my mind goes when I see a title like this one.

I'm sorry but I can't run a laptop without functional hardware video decoding, or even hybrid sleep. I tried my Linux switch this year on 2 laptops - an older 8th gen with Intel graphics and a new one with the latest AMD. Still the same stuff. I need to do lots of workarounds for simple stuff to work properly and some things are just broken. I can't tolerate a laptop that eats 70% of CPU and murders the battery when I'm just trying to watch a video and crashes randomly when resuming for sleep. Windows 10 enterprise ltsc it is :(

The Green-Energy Revolution Shows What Real Innovation Looks Like
I'm reminded of some popular news reporting of a psychological study (who knows whether it's reproducible), something like... People who behaved in some specific dishonest way also thought other people tended to have a similar level of honesty to themselves. Compared to people who didn't behave in that dishonest way, and who thought others tended to have a similar level of honesty to themselves.

How the causality works there, I don't have good guesses.

But the supposed phenomenon could reduce to simply differing conceptions of what the real world is.

In response to your edit (learn to post...): So the jury is qualified to adjudicate the charged crime, but they aren't qualified to adjudicate intent of another crime? Or is your argument that they must additionally and explicitly declare that adjudication? Or is it that another jury has to do it ahead of time?
I’ve seen boards hinder nonprofits from executing on the mission plenty of times, usually out of ego or general fecklessness.

I wouldn’t assume that boards care about the mission more than the employees. Employees are the ones signing up to implement it, board members are often just in it for status and are total dilettantes.

I think in this case there’s a lot of signs pointing to the board feeling that their status was threatened more than anything. If their reasoning is that releasing ChatGPT without their permission was “unsafe,” give me a break.

That's already how it works, it is not an open ended SQL query. The GraphQL schema is the whitelist.
Eh, it's an average of one a day, but it could be rolled up in a report once a month and there's 20-40 to look through, and depending how hands on he is (he might have delegated some of this work) that may or may not be something he looks closely into. I imagine there's an order of magnitude more companies that apply that don't get funded. Where does he spend his time? Mentoring companies that have been accepted, and if so, all of them or ones that align with some prior interest, or in vetting and looking for unicorns in the applications?

I don't know how any of their stuff works, but I'm sure most people can appreciate that the stuff that gets lost between the cracks is the stuff that doesn't come in and get tracked through the normal channels, and an OpenAI investment where one of the main people in the company is heading it might be something that wasn't through normal channels. Maybe that was on purpose so pg didn't see it, or maybe that stuff is mostly handled by someone else. Or maybe pg knew about it and decided to lie about it on twitter. /shrug

Playing along by pretending there's nothing to mention is a step further than feeling you're not allowed to say exactly what you mean. That's the why.

Why aside, if you care about the subject either way you already know what he's talking about, and if you don't know then you likely wouldn't care.

He may be quite incorrect in his judgment of the subject, but, as demonstrated by the flagging, he's correct that he's not allowed to talk about it in many settings, including this one. There's a fair chance I'm not allowed to talk about him not being allowed to talk about it, either.

> greater awareness causing the differences

I'm extremely skeptical of this study because (a) the authors explicitly say they can't rule out greater awareness of mental disorders as being responsible for the difference, but then (b) they decided to go with their "transmission" theory anyway, probably because it makes for a better story.

To be clear, I have no idea if either theory is more likely for the data they examined. But I would have trusted this study a lot more if they had presented both options as equally plausible.
Yeah that was one I was thinking of. I didn't know it was more recent, it feels like ages ago. But also altavista, it was very customer centric, though it was free.

I reached out to them to get a refund for my Car Thing - and they actually sent me an email asking for my checking account number and routing number to be sent to them VIA EMAIL. And presumably into their ticket system where future hackers will find a nice collection of financial info.

This question unfairly frames the situation at Meta. It presumes that the company’s reputation has irreparably declined, and implies Zuckerberg's hobbies detract from the leadership of a company he owns in every sense of the word.

Meta, like any large organization, faces complex challenges and public scrutiny. It’s misleading to focus solely on the negative aspects without acknowledging the positive contributions and efforts to address these issues.

Leaders can and do have personal lives and interests outside their professional responsibilities. Suggesting that his hobbies indicate a lack of commitment to Meta is an ad hominem attack.
The deals with these warehouses generally forbid it, and there are in fact investigators working on supply chain compliance (warehouse police). There is a line out the door for these mixed pallets, and if you are caught fucking around they will sell to someone else.

If you want pallets of baby strollers, or even a specific model/type of stroller, for refurbishing or whatever - the retailers want you to go direct to them. They'll happily sell direct to you, but you need to buy a truckload or more at a time.

I guess it has something to do with those functions frequently used in guards.
_Notice tuple_size/1, map_size/1, byte_size/1 and some other functions/macros are defined in Kernel and documented in the section Guards[0]_

We can't invoke remote functions (which Tuple.size/1 would have been) in guards.

Though, there are some other functions that I can't think of a reason why they are "orphaned" such as put_elem/3 to put element into a tuple, while, for example, for maps there is Map.put/3

I was in a charity shop recently and the manager explained to me that a big pile of recently-arrived stock (of clothing in this case) was not yet for sale because it hadn't been picked by the volunteers yet.

Since the shop is staffed by unpaid volunteers they get first bite at anything coming in. I gather they pay normal rates for whatever they take.

I have no problem with this at all. This seems like the very least perk they could be offered. Frankly, if I was running the place each volunteer would get their stuff for free (up to some value per month.)

I'm not sure this is true. It's very common that people cycle in the rain, from towns 15-20+km away, all seasons, in the Netherlands.

RRF is a simple and effective means of fused ranking for multiple recall.
Within our open source RAG product RAGFlow(https://github.com/infiniflow/ragflow), Elasticsearch is currently used instead of other general vector databases, because it can provide hybrid search right now. Under the default cases, embedding based reranker is not required, just RRF is enough, while even if reranker is used, keywords based retrieval is also a MUST to be hybridized with embedding based retrieval, that's just what RAGFlow's latest 0.7 release has provided.

On the other hand let me introduce another database we developed, Infinity(https://github.com/infiniflow/infinity), which can provide the hybrid search, you can see the performance here(https://github.com/infiniflow/infinity/blob/main/docs/refere...), both vector search and full-text search could perform much faster than other open source alternatives.

From the next version(weeks later), Infinity will also provide more comprehensive hybrid search capabilities, what you have mentioned the 3-way recalls(dense vector, sparse vector, keyword search) could be provided within single request.
> decrease the integrity of query results

What does that even mean. When you know the exact keywords then you use full-text.

When you don't know them then other tools can be helpful.
It depends on how you define "DB" in this context. Ex-Facebooker so I this may have changed but I doubt it. It's fairly fundamental.

At the lowest level, data is stored in MySQL so yes, that's open source. Almost nothing user-facing will talk to MySQL directly because you're bypassing all the privacy, scaling, auditing, security, etc. Some legacy systems are on different MySQL instances but we're talking internal systems, not public-facing.

The in-memory graph database on top of that, which I think you're actually referring to, is called TAO [1]. AFAIK, no, it isn't open source.

All of this is very much designed for the type of data Facebook stores and how it's used (eg "12,345 people liked this" is an easy query but listing all the things you liked can be really expensive beyond the most recent likes).

I read “Physics For Fun” by the same author (translated to Kannada, my native tongue) in highschool. Terrific book. I would read it all the time, would open a random page and read a few articles.

This was at a time when India-Russia friendly relations were at their peak so in order to carry out cultural exchange Indian government funded translating a ton of Russian books to local languages here. Sadly the initiative seems to be dead as I don’t find such books anymore.
