They could cheat by sending you to talk to someone else in a "private" manner.

An offline attack against the host's keys that relies on undisclosed vulnerabilities, or an online one against their infra that abuses recent CVEs and bad security also seem possible.
I used one when it was somehow raining in Phoenix and it worked fine apart from being a bit confused by a puddle when stopping.

You could almost use this argument to convince me for a complex software like the Adobe products that is constantly getting new, major updates, but for a Pomodoro app? Honestly, $1 seems reasonable.
This would make it so much easier for end users to cache/host a mirror than the myriad of tools and hacks like squid.

I'm sure this will happen once the Linux community standardizes on a package format /s.
Sometimes it doesn’t need to. You might have a problem that isn’t web scale and where transfer learning is hard. We also need techniques for small datasets even if they are slower to train or are outperformed after 5 billion tokens.
Serverless != serverless

You use a lot of servers, you just call them resources. Your S3 storage is a server, your background workers run on a server, and your postgress, well, it doesn't run on a bike.

I hate this confabulating stuff. It's like people believing "the cloud" is an actual cloud. Couldn't we just leave this stuff to the marketing people?
Stateside a decade ago the Fiat 500 was a cheap garbage tier vehicle. Nowadays, they make an expensive car, that is likely still garbage tier.
I didn't know him personally but he was heavily involved in some communities I'm in and I also knew him from some of his posts here on HN. He's a great example of how one generous man can have such a wide influence, reaching across multiple "worlds" both online and offline. May God grant him pardon and peace.

I think this is a very reasonable stance for most situations.

IDK what the dynamics inside OpenAI are like. In nearly all scenarios, I would agree with you, but if sama is really a master manipulator like some people are saying, then some level of secrecy/conspiracy might have been necessary to escalate to the board without being pushed out of the company first.

Let's take an extreme hypothetical where Sam instructs you, an OpenAI exec, to take Action A, and says, "I'm a very influential person. If you don't do what I say or if you make me look bad, I'll use my connections to make sure you never work in the Valley again." Responding with "I disagree, and I'm going to go to the board about this" might be incompatible with future employment, especially if the board doesn't take your side. Going to the press might also be a disaster given sama's history of emerging unscathed from Worldcoin, his sister's allegations, etc. The best choice for most people is probably to just stay quiet and do as you're told. Later, when the board comes to you investigating claims of abusive behavior, you might share with them but request anonymity, because you know that Sam is indeed a very influential person; if the board decides not to fire him (or if they do and it doesn't work), you will be ruined.

In this situation, all the board can do without breaking anonymity is to say, "we have investigated and discovered incidences of abusive behavior, and for that we are removing you as CEO."
I have never had trouble cracking open the window on my own. Do you not try?
I love older cars, but they are significantly more dangerous. My 93 pickup had no airbags and was notorious for the engine intruding into the passenger compartment in collisions. My 91 sports car only has an air bag for the driver as a premium option, and they are known to not deploy due to the ancient explosives and electrical contacts. The A pillars on both cars are tiny and will fold in any kind of hit or rollover, plus both cars were designed for 55 mph max speeds, not the 85+ that is common today. An accident on the freeway in either would be a coin toss of survival.
Yes, they're actually awesome. 'Waymo' has replaced 'Uber' in my vocabulary, e.g. "Let's just Waymo there".
The "plans" for Mars terraforming will probably include slamming comets into it (at low relative speeds), on the scale of 1000-10000 years. It's unlikely to involve slow-and-steady air production.

I looked into this a while ago, and a major problem with Mars terraforming is that if you add a bit of additional carbon dioxide (or water vapor), it'll mostly just get frozen and deposited onto the ice caps.

So you need to add something like nitrogen to "bulk up" the atmosphere to prevent it from freezing out. And there's just no nitrogen on Mars.
This seems like a very easy thing for any sort of middleware (or ORM) to do for you. Maybe even add typed where clauses that only exist for indexed columns.

I am having trouble imagining this scenario in a way that makes Waymo look as bad as you imply. It sounds like the human-driven vehicle if it was "boxed in" on an on-ramp needed to slow and merge, rather than racing to pass on the right, running off the road, and causing a spectacular single-vehicle wreck. The way it's described in that paragraph seems to be ironclad proof of the need to promptly relieve humans of driving tasks.

Oh they have issues. Waymos are super janky when they are in parking lots, often just sitting in the middle of the driving lane waiting for their fare. I dont think they know how to park in a lot correctly.

It is also funny to watch them get stuck behind busses, having followed too close to safely go around them when the bus stops to pickup/dropoff.

Also Ive seen multiple instances of them trying to turn left on red and pull far enough into an intersection to cause issues.

Finally when I am on my skateboard they dont seem to recognize me as they drive very very close and fast, though I havent felt risky enough to really test this.
Your premium is paid by your employer. Please revisit the statement when you are self-employed.

Also, turns out there is a deductible if you don't want to pay a fortune for self-insurance.

Well, at least there is in Germany. And the premium ends up being ~$1k/month.

US health insurance is crappy in many ways, but EU health insurance isn't a magic fairy unicorn either.
Two real examples I knew: someone who started interrupting people mid-sentence to get clarification, and someone whose mind started going blank when other people were talking.

Behavioral training like LACE can be helpful for people who started doing things like that to cope with a hearing problem, but an audiologist should be looking at a filter (with APD you can be prescribed a filter for one ear even if you have no hearing loss, depending on your diagnosis.)

Neither case had anything to do with intelligence as demonstrated in every area of their life outside of hearing processing.

I and these others have auditory processing disorder as well.
I just don't agree.

The only time in my life the average person thought the economy was good was the peak of the dot com bubble.

Since then the average person either thinks the economy is bad and we are about to go into a recession if they don't think we are already in one, or we actually are in a recession.

It is the problem of the marginal utility of a dollar when the society is already so far out on this logarithmic curve.

Sorry you are having so many issues. That has not been my experience with elixir-ls either locally or in Codespaces. Just want to say that when you do get it working, it does indeed have that and many more features. If you are interested, the Elixir slack is very active and helpful and there is a #language-server channel.

I suppose there's a distinction to be made between quantity and quality of changes, too. Certainly regular sex mixes things up a lot every time, but only within the bounds of the established gene pool (roughly).

Compare this to, say, the famous example of adding firefly genes to tobacco plants, to make them bioluminescent. That's a small change in terms of number of genes, but very "sudden" in terms of how far it is away from the norm — it would have taken a very long time for that to have happened as a result of natural (or even breeding-style) permutations of existing genes. So it's a "big" change in that sense, even if "small" in the other.

As far as citations go, I think the Wikipedia page on GMO foods is decent? [1]

For instance, the "Gene flow" section describes the risk of various unexpected consequences of GMO crops affecting their surroundings: "There are concerns that the spread of genes from modified organisms to unmodified relatives could produce species of weeds resistant to herbicides[303] that could contaminate nearby non-genetically modified crops, or could disrupt the ecosystem,[304][305] "

Of course in general, GMO crops are seen as safe (with lots of of "more long term research is needed" caveats), but the page has various links to concerns and ongoing research along the lines we're been discussing.

The 1% worst human drivers are really quite unpredictable. You're never certain with any human driver whether they're going to drive like a maniac, but you do know you're not getting that with a Waymo.
None of the explanations in this topic are relevant if they don't address that "Barbie", "Oppenheimer" and "Super Mario Bros" were all hits last year.

Ticket prices, concession prices, streaming, attention spans, originality (or lack of), home theater setups, length of films... all of these factors were in place last year.

It's probably worth looking at specifically why the marketing for the hits from last year was effective (Barbie marketing particularly was both ubiquitous and highly inventive) versus "Furiosa" and "Fall Guy". Also note that Fall Guy's box office was relatively okay compared to something like "The Lost City" but it's budget was much higher, making it a much tougher financial proposition.

Whatever you save on the upfront cost of a used Q5 you'll pay on the backend the first time it needs service.
Complete does not mean uncountable. Complete means that any sequence that looks like it is converging, actually is converging.

Related to Hilbert spaces, consider the set of analytic functions with period 1. Under the L2 norm, this is an inner product space. It is also uncountable. However as Fourier showed, the Fourier series for the square wave does not converge within the set of analytic functions. In fact it is trying to converge to a function that not only fails to be analytic, it fails to be continuous!
Wow, what a great summary! I was a little put off by your initial political commentary in the first comment, but this is exactly what is happening. The point about the water thin OW oil is exactly on the nose. Oh you save $300 in gas a year, but got an $80 oil change how many times? And people are buying brand new Japanese cars, since they see 20 year old ones still kicking, but time will tell.

HN crowd of course is interested in all the computer-on-wheels aspect, but the basic hardware is being stretched to the limit because gasoline has a finite energy density and a practical limit on combustion efficiency. So it’s just pushing the costs under the rug. And there is most definitely a corrupt relationship with the whole “fleet average” thing.
I paid for Halide and almost immediately afterward, they announced a policy of locking new features made after whatever version you had bought unless you bought it a second time.

It's the only app I've ever bought whose developer has done that bullshit.

I won't make that mistake again.
If our family ever needed a second car, about 70 miles of real-world range would be more than plenty. We already have a long range EV for road trips.
I think it depends on what solution space you are willing to explore.
There is the possibility for regulatory action that restricts native ads.
It's seems plausible that a flood of AI content tanks the prices for native ads, so some might pivot to original content + regular ads, which might also become more profitable if regulatory action weakens the oligopolies of that space.
Aside from high level market shifts and regulatory action, there is of course also the possibility of technical solutions that can help you to avoid native ads.

Hmm, it seems there are two different Toxoplasmosis/Accident narratives floating around out there: (1) That infection causes risky behavior and (2) that infection harms reaction-times so that accidents are more-likely or more-severe.

Similar experience using GPT4 for help with Apple's Accessibility API. I wanted to do some non-happy-path things and it kept looping between solutions that failed to satisfy at least one of a handful of requirements that I had, and in ways that I couldn't combine the different "solutions" to meet all the requirements.

I was eventually able to figure it out with the help of some early 2010s blog posts. Sadly I didn't test giving it that context and having it attempt to find a solution again (and this was before web browsing was integrated with the web app).

More of an issue than it not knowing enough to fulfill my request (it was pretty obscure so I didn't necessarily expect that it would be able to) was that it didn't mind emitting solutions that failed to meet the requirements. "I don't know how to do that" would've been a much preferred answer.
I think you have those switched... a used transmission is probably about $300, and 3 grand to install it.

On most cars the transmission is probably the biggest failure liability- I pretty much only drive manuals for that reason, doing a clutch is a lot cheaper than replacing an automatic, and the better you are at driving it the less you need to do it.

I bought a Ford Maverick last week and it's pretty close to this. In addition to bluetooth, the head unit supports carplay/android auto. But it has no built-in nav system or subscription bullshit.

It has knobs and buttons for everything you want to use while driving, including volume, transport controls (on both the steering wheel and below the screen), radio tuner, and climate control.

The closest alternative I looked at was the Hyundai Santa Cruz, which was more expensive. All of its buttons except those on the steering wheel and column stalks are capacitive nightmares with no tactile feedback. That alone was enough to help make my decision.
These cars cause way more damage to road, cars, infrastructure and people.

And they are twice as likely to kill someone in a serious crash.

You don't think that should be discouraged.
They're over 70% marketshare world wide and they produce less than half the revenue. I am not sure how the math breaks down the odds that an individual android user will buy a $20 app, but it doesn't seem great.

My point is if the average Android user were even half as likely to buy then the numbers would be about the same plausibly, they wouldn't be half the revenue. I suspect if you're a small shop focused on apps for the top end of phones you just don't have time for all this.
Totaled means the insurance company buys the car from you.

The Art of Immersive Environments: Making Vibescape for Apple Vision Pro [video]
I was blown away going around Tempe/Scottsdale - Waymos everywhere with people walking around, crossing streets randomly to get to a spring training game, doing bar crawls (it was st patricks day) and what blew me away was they pulled up in front of hotel and even made a quick u-turn to get out of the parking lot. I mean this is really impressive stuff. The future is now imho.

I will give tempe/scottsdale credit though - they have their roads around the major tourist hubs in GREAT shape - the lines crisp and the lights bright and new - I think it makes it much easier for a waymo to get around.

Way more interesting than this old zombie company is that new podcast about cpu design. Cool!
they dragnet surveil to build an increasingly accurate stockpile of data on an increasing number of people. everything is catalogued and filed away, nothing is discarded. at some point in the past or future, this data has been/will be weaponized via ML and used in the best interest of whomever controls it (the government), not in the best interest of the surveilled masses. this is why it is important to care about your privacy on the internet.
So you're also skipping important safety inspections that normally happen at oil change intervals?
If the parquet file includes any row group stats, then I imagine DuckDB might be able to use those to avoid scanning the entire file. It's definitely possible to request specific sections of a blob stored in S3. But I'm not familiar enough with DuckDB to know whether or not it does this.
does view creation still list all files? ime even if not queried, the view would do a lot of s3 calls
> How is color grading applied if not with LUTs?

No absolutely not. In Resolve specifically, you have nodes that you apply to the video where each node allows for specific settings to be applied as part of the grade. In a true grading session, you dial in the settings for black levels, white levels, contrast, saturation as primaries. Then there's secondaries which start finessing. You can then draw windows/mattes to isolate a specific area or specific color range (think color image where everything is B&W except the red rose/red car/red dress style) to apply the grading. There's also tracking of those windows. There's so much more going into color grading than "apply LUT here". Just look at the control surfaces for Resolve and the number of knobs/buttons/rollers. Would something that just applied LUTs need all of that?

> You know that when you do color grading with apps like Resolve, it is stored in memory as a LUT, right?

Source? That's a very gross oversimplification of what a color session is like. LUTs don't do tracking. LUTs don't do keys. LUTs don't do mattes.

You are doing colorists a disservice if you think grading is just LUTs.

His personality aside, Tesla shareholders might come to the conclusion that he has made a number of bad decisions that hurt the company’s prospects.

To name a few: the Cybertruck (not being in the pickup truck market per se, but the product decisions that Musk made), axing the Model 2 and leaving the small car market to the competition, the Tesla Semi which is vapourware while competitors actually sell electric commercial trucks, the failure to bring self-driving cars to market (but selling them anyway, killing people in the process), the failure to develop batteries that are competitive with what BYD and CATL have, the failure to renew its small lineup of aging models, stupid side shows like these Tesla robots etc.

Thus far, Tesla’s rapid growth and its great profit margin were reason enough to ignore all of the aforementioned. That’s no longer the case. Tesla shareholders should oust Musk, giving him more time to be a full-time Twitter troll.
