"... state-owned enterprise clients “present due diligence or security concerns, and possibly payment delays"

Payments delays from SOEs is the polite way to reference the resurgence of triangle debt and is deliberate, not accidental as a gentle reading would have you believe.

It's a shell game where the SOE blames downstream payment delay to avoid paying their own debts.

Originally called a triangle because SOEs would use it against the other e.g. SOE1 not paying SOE2 because supplierA never paid up. But SupplierA is actually owed money by SOE2. SOE2 never paid SupplierA because it's owed money by SOE1.

Beijing of course doesn't let anything bad happen to SOEs so they end up drawing and quartering SupplierA just because SupplierA is legally disallowed from refusing SOE contracts, which started this whole mess. Hopefully dear reader, you can see the knock on effects to the economy.

I’ve not heard it described that way before; I would love to hear more of what you mean by this. The way I learned it in my upper level acoustics courses in college was image sources: hard surfaces are effectively mirrors for sound, so just like you see a copy of an object in an actual mirror, you hear a copy of the speaker coming as if from inside the wall. With three surfaces meeting in the corner, you effectively get 8 sound sources instead of just one. For low frequencies these virtual sources constructively interfere and make louder sound. Of course, this is just a more intuitive way of thinking of the effects of boundary conditions to a partial differential equation.
I'm curious how the Essential plans work, given that Aurora pricing starts higher than that in monthly costs. It is probably databases in a shared multi-tenant Aurora instance, and then the single-tenant plans that are currently in pilot give you the full Aurora instance. That also explains some of the limitations and the low connection limits.
A basic example is some compute service, say image transformation. You just run computations where all the input is in the request, and all the output goes to the response.
The stuff that gets your desktop started up into a usable state. Same as on any OS, macOS or Windows. The software that is expected to be there on a given version of the OS, that other software may depend on being at some particular (major, at least) version until there’s a new version of the OS.

The stuff that updates when you update the OS.

On macOS, the software that’s not an optional package manageable through the App Store (even if installed by default) or managed by Homebrew or what have you.

You know, the system software.
The difference between Theranos and OpenAI is the later has created a product which, while imperfect, does something.

While conversational AI is nowhere near as good as people are made to think, there are two places where it has really shown itself to be good:

1. Writing the first draft of things. Be it code or a email.

2. Turning unstructured data into structured data

By and large, those use cases aren’t very sexy, but the have the potential to accelerate the speed at which many things are done. And with less manpower.

Talking this through with you, I’m starting to think that two things are going to happen:

1. A significant number of people who are or will be laid off in an effort to reach profitability are going to either found new companies or take senior roles on newly founded ones.

2. A mild recession will occur for some reason (be it layoffs, consumer debt, political unrest, a long tail event, etc). That’ll finally lead the fed to lower interest rates, which in turn starts the process of a true VC driven boom cycle.

Reinforces my suspicion that we are very early on in a super-cycle.

Sadly, WWVB is damaged. At midnight on April 7, 2024, WWVB's south antenna was disabled due to damage sustained during high winds. WWVB now broadcasts exclusively from the north antenna, at a reduced power of 30kW. This situation is expected to continue "indefinitely", presumably because of a lack of budget for repairs.

I haven’t read the Evening Standard, but last year I subscribed to a daily paper delivery of a different one (the Financial Times).

My thoughts on the content are mixed but generally positive, but for the actual delivery of a daily physical newspaper to my mailbox thing, I really enjoy it. There is something much more real about it as compared to scrolling through endless news articles online or going through yet another email newsletter. If I’m in public at a cafe/on the subway etc. I also feel more present and focused vs. using my phone.

I actually think there may be a revival of print media, especially as the Internet gets increasingly crowded and filled with ads. The newspaper has ads of course but they are considerably less distracting. It will likely be more of a niche high quality product, though.
Ask HN: Anyone notice iCloud Calendar changed to Korean around 9 PM PST May 31?
For a few minutes, calendar.icloud.com showed all of its text in Korean around 9 PM PST May 31. I verified this was the case for multiple browsers and confirmed I didn't have Korean installed on either browser or my system. By the time I went to a separate computer to verify, I refreshed and it was all back to English. Here is one page I did NOT refresh and it's title was in Korean [0] (later it became the full page but I refreshed that page ;()

Anyone notice the same thing?

As other said here; if you book via a 3rd party and you have very little experience (you are a holiday traveller), you don’t know that you have to or how to login to the Ryanair site as they don’t tell you. So when you arrive at the airport you have a nice expensive surprise for the family.
"So does the CSV have multiple languages within it?"

For context, it's for Indonesia. So you do have urban areas and expats who can mostly speak English. But English isn't taught in school. Arabic, Chinese, Dutch are popular too.

Bahasa Indonesia is the formal version, but most will be more familiar with the various languages. Most states will have their own dialects, at least 5 major dialects. The difference is not like American/English, but closer to Scots/English.

This is a representation of the word fruit in different dialects: https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=2078468635856668

The challenge is that many people are comfortable with writing in their own dialect, even if they can read others. So we can't possibly use all the languages that could be input, but it's fine if it outputs in a somewhat different dialect. For the most part, sentence structures are similar and "bua" and "buah" are still recognizable to people with different dialects, likely to AI as well. But programmatic algorithms wouldn't handle something like "buwa" properly.

To answer the question, the CSV will mostly just have informal Bahasa Indonesia. English questions will miss sometimes, so we've added English as well for the ones that miss. More data is more effective.

"Why a CSV verse various documents in a directory (like Google Drive?)"

Could be anything really, but we tend to have a loose format for data & notes, and then have a script that strips out or combines from other sheets into something that's cleaner to read and search. PDF, XLS, etc is hard to get consistent. But something like JSON, XML, YAML are still acceptable as long as we can script it.

AskJack seems to be a bit low code though. We can build our own and have reasons to have more control over certain bits. So a B2B solution over the RAG part would be nice.
HN Classic. https://news.ycombinator.com/classic

It is basically HN Frontpage ranked using only votes from accounts over a year old. But what I would really like as Dang mentioned previously, was to add a query param so you can decide how ancient you want the contributing upvoters to be.

I much rather have the HN Front-page in the Pre-2012 era. There used to be a time when media wouldn't even quote the source as HackerNews but only mentioned it as "an Orange industry forum". They wouldn't even link to it. It is as if everyone have an unwritten agreement not to pollute it from outsiders.

Then came twitter, and then some 2014 US election, after that HN isn't the same anymore.

It's hyperbolic of course, but there is an ongoing NIMBY battle over the next datacenter. And it is a huge datacenter, dont get me wrong. The company bidding recently said it would convert a shitton of the land it would be given into greenspaces that yon biker could bike through. And we can be clear here too, if you can afford to bike in Loudon then you work for one of the companies directly requiring this new datacenter, so not sure why he's "conflicted" (nimbyism)
I've been about as much of an Apple/Mac fanboy as it gets for so many years—and even now I love my iPad Pro tremendously.

But I've gotten increasingly upset—irate even—about Apple's terrible missteps with the App Store, as well as the completely unnecessary lockdowns in their i-* platforms for power users. (I'd be more than happy to press a series of 10 giant red scary buttons to unlock my iPad Pro's true "pro-ness" and open terminals, long-running background processes, VMs, and a whole lot more…but alas, it's just not possible.)

I've been experimenting a lot lately with GNOME in a VM on my M1 Mac mini, and I'm extremely impressed with how far Linux UI has come. Since most of the software I use on a daily basis is all web-based (and if not it's CLI-based), there's not much I actually need a macOS desktop for rather than a Linux one.

All that to say: my mid-2010s self would be shocked to hear these words come out of my mouth: my next computer will be a Linux PC.

I believe the median progression-free survival is the length of time where 50% of people are still free from progression. The numbers you mentioned would mean that we don't know how long that is for this treatment but it's definitely longer than 5 years. That sounds pretty good depending on the type of cancer and stage when treatment started.
Who cares, so you fart a little. Plus if you just don’t care and just power through, it almost completely goes away.

> Typically (almost always) the defense has the last word to the jury.

Where did you hear this? This is not true as far as I know.

Here is a NY State guide to jury trials that seems to support that prosecution always goes second:

After all evidence has been presented, the defense may deliver a summation, or a closing statement to the jury. *The prosecutor must then deliver a summation*. The summations review the evidence and present arguments based upon the evidence in the case to try to persuade the jury to convict or acquit the defendant.

https://moderncourts.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/criminal...

So first the defense may (they can opt not to) deliver a summation. Then (meaning after the defense) the prosecution must (they don't have a choice) offer a summation.

> So you literally have a situation where the defendant went through a whole trial not knowing the full set of specific laws he was alleged to have broken.

No, this is not literally the situation. He knew the entire time he was charged for "Falsifying Business Records in the First Degree" under NY State law. This was made very clear to him, but moreover his lawyers knew this the entire time as well. The particular law states:

That the defendant did so with intent to defraud that included an intent to commit another crime or to aid or conceal the commission thereof.

INTENT means conscious objective or purpose. Thus, a person acts with intent to defraud when his or her conscious objective or purpose is to do so.

So they did not have to prove commission of an additional crime, they had to prove intent to commit an additional crime. The facts the jury used to determine whether Trump had this intent were presented by the prosecution at trial, and the defense had every opportunity to mount a defense against them.

It's not like some surprise evidence was revealed at closing which the defense had no opportunity to counter. In fact, they had every opportunity to mount a defense.

Notably, when they had their chance, they rested their case after calling a single witness who actually, in dramatic fashion, was caught in a lie by the prosecution on cross the way the defense hoped to catch Cohen in a lie on cross. Now it's laughable when they claim "we didn't have a chance to mount a defense", and people who didn't watch the trial treat that credulously.

What exactly would they have said in defense if they had another opportunity? "Cohen's a liar, the judge is biased, the jury is rigged, the venue is not friendly." Nothing we haven't heard already, that's the point; everything that could have been said, has been said, and now that the verdict is "guilty" they want to have said more, as if whatever they have to say isn't more of the same deflection the jury didn't buy.

We will see what the appeals court says but it's not looking good based on the fact many people have tried to argue this point on appeal, and it's been rejected.
The USG just needs to choose an authentication scheme that is easily and securely implemented in smartphones, yet still accessible to the grandmas out there that will use this as their first piece of technology. Then, once adopted, they should double down and publish the full mapping of names to SSNs, eradicating any remaining value they have as anything other than a User ID.
Not a personal attack. There is nothing wrong with being a foreigner or having grown up in a bad school district.
It’s interesting that you pillory journalism here as if a crime has been committed, while simultaneously reading the least charitable interpretation of the words possible, then concluding absolutes like “completely false,” which is itself your interpretation and most charitable to you being the arbiter of truth here. And you’re on this horse regarding imagining what ancient armor was used for. You don’t know. The people quoted don’t know. Nobody knows.

If the journalist talked to one guy who said you know, I think that’s ceremonial, blah blah, the quote is fair. One person thought it. One person told the reporter as much. You disagree. Journalism is working as intended.

Tip for the future: “journalism is broken” is usually a synonym for “I’ve taken a position that differs, and I therefore overfeel that the world is doing things wrong”.

I believe it does. I believe each destination IP you connect to uses a different exit node. And that'll even switch over time. And even if you connect to 2 destination IPs from the same exit node, I don't think there's a way for the exit node to know those 2 connections were from the same user.

> Just to meet business-as-usual trends, 115% more copper must be mined in the next 30 years than has been mined historically until now. To electrify the global vehicle fleet requires bringing into production 55% more new mines than would otherwise be needed. On the other hand, hybrid electric vehicle manufacture would require negligible extra copper mining.

Presumably that's because the reference EV model(s) contain more copper than the reference hybrid model(s)?
