I found myself making these types of comparisons over and over again to keep up with new models and pricing changes, so I made a Google Sheet for it with some charts to visualize outliers and trends in terms of model capability, throughput, and token cost. It's sorted by the Artificial Analysis Index [1], which incorporates both static benchmarks (MMLU) and dynamic crowdsourced elo (chatbot arena). Hope someone finds it useful:

Specific to Groq - the service is an incredible outlier for speed and cost, but even for quite small projects I've run into rate limits and similar errors. Great option for something like a bring-your-own-keys personal chatbot, but I wouldn't build a service on it. Groq Llama 3 70B and Groq Mixtral 8x7B are in the sheet for comparison but omitted from charts.

The CA home solar subsidies read to me like we've given up on fixing our utilities. Like it's our job to generate our own power from our roofs now, not a power company with access to dedicated facilities that can be far more efficient. Some of my coworkers in the Bay Area even invested in whole-home UPS like Tesla Powerwall because they've been hit by too many blackouts, as if it's not the utility's job anymore to provide reliable power.
What a rube goldberg machine. Just use actual files in folders and stop using 'serverless'. It'll probably be a lot easier to mantain and just as performant in most use cases.

I do however wonder if your conclusion factors in realty. Specifically where the buffer endless gets filled by one vehicle after another merging into it. A high % of the new arrivals barely pass (or don't) the vehicle they wanted to get by, converting the passing lane into not-that.

So this is an excellent question, because no joke I have noticed the same thing testing with Spotify. Apple Music does not have that issue.

Makes me wonder: do different streaming services get different masters? Or, is Spotify having playback issues? To the app, they both should sound the same. I intend to do some research with that when the fog clears out a bit and the Android version is out.

I've read research that showed that among people who were top 1% skill wise, it was very common for them to have had early instructors who focused on skill development as play relative to the population at large. Because they learned to enjoy the process, the outcome didn't matter as much, and they could stay motivated to progress. Tournaments and other competitive activities also provide a way to maintain motivation - they're often graded so you can compete against others of a similar skill level, and competitive success can provide motivation to train harder even when absolute progress slows down.

This is not about people the state disagrees with, but about the undesirable of society.
The risk is we get to legitimize euthanasia as a way of getting rid of the poor and homeless.

I'm absolutely horrified by the direction taken by Canada with regards to this. It is mindblowing and hard to believe for me that 1 in 4 Canadians thinks that assisted suicide should be allowed for the poor[1]. Like, how about getting them out of poverty instead? How about providing every citizen with a dignified life before we consider ways to literally put them out of their misery?

Thankfully there aren't enough doctors willing to go on with what seem like the nazi wet dream[2], but I'm left seriously wondering what's wrong with Canadian society.

Is there any reason to believe a computer that can do Shor's algorithm is actually possible? There's a lot of freaking out trying to build QC-resistent assymetric encryption, but we don't actually know whether or not it's physically possible to build the requisite error corrections to make it feasible in the first place, right? Is there reason to believe that the physical reality of QM doesn't require exponentially more and more qbits for every logical qbit added to the system? Basically, is there any reason to believe that a QC capable of Shor's doesn't degrade to a space / time tradeoff for a classical computer when it comes to integer factorization?
I'm not even sure I'd find it desirable for nodejs fetch() to quietly store state somewhere on my server without asking me: I wouldn't know to back that file up, it may be trashed regularly depending on the infrastructure, it could mess with version control by creating a local working directory change, or it might run into an error condition if it is on a read-only filesystem (either crashing or being unable to use this security feature, neither is great).

Config file writes are to be expected for user-facing software, but for developers it should error out so they can just choose what it needs to do

E.g., "Error: HSTS response received after a redirect from HTTP, but no storage location specified for security states. Use the https:// protocol, specify a file location, or set insecure_ignore_hsts=true."

Edit: but it's a very legitimate question?! Just saw you got downvoted, I have no idea why
Nope. The actual answer is: people don't like reading. We are here on Hacker News volunteering to read a giant comments section that consists entirely of words, that we're expected to read only after the article which itself consists of lots of words, so we're really weird self-selected people. Of course we find this baffling.

There was an article a while back that said something like most books sell less than 300 copies. I think the real numbers turned out to be higher, but still really low. Reading is not a popular activity. Watching video is popular. Talking to people is popular. These are skills that children acquire naturally without effort. Reading: difficult, slow, isolating. Given a choice between talking to someone or reading, people will go through a lot of pain for the opportunity to talk.

This was one of the hardest lessons to learn in my software career. I still suck at it. It's one of the lowest hanging fruits for me to improve as a developer. Just today I was shortening a popup message that my company's software sometimes puts on the screen [1] at the suggestion of a customer who had to deal with support requests from people who weren't reading it. Kicking myself!

Another popup this software rarely has to generate says "Install failed. The following error has been copied to your clipboard .... <stuff>". 100% of error reports, and I do mean 100% without exception for over two years now, come in the form of screenshots. Exactly zero people have ever read the second sentence and used paste. Kicking myself again! Why did I even think that would work?!

The hardest thing is developer docs. I still don't know how to strike the right balance there. We should make more videos.

I’d do absolutely nothing. I’d sit on a beach or in a pool/hot tub drinking beer and wine while reading or watching tv. I’d walk enough so that I don’t look like the future people from Wall-E. I’d make sure to do absolutely nothing productive though.
Yeah. Animations covering time that'd be spent either way I see no problem with, so long as it's obvious the time would be spent either way. Animations that waste my time, not so much.

Better than either, of course, would be effort spent on speeding up the build in the first place. I realize that's less fun, though.

In general, the critical development path is not a place to thoughtlessly add friction.
It would be exciting to try your app, cause I have 2 turntables to calibrate, but I don't use google play store. Could you make it available on f-droid?
Yeah, not only have we had unplanned outages, but PG&E has preemptively shut off power in large urban areas during weeks of high fire risk. Happened multiple times, but I specifically remember the 2020 rolling blackouts.
That is called a stack interchange, it's much larger and much more expensive to build and have no peds or bike access.

I didn't mean to suggest such a thing; what I mean is that if someone in the US wants to end their life, they can (and I'll skip any macabre details about how easy it is) do so very simply with a firearm - I believe it is the most successful method. I just find it rather dissonant that the belief that weapons should be so easily available pairs with a supposed respect for life.

I appreciate the author calling this out because creating an HTTP-redirect-to-HTTPS is something I'll do almost without thinking about it. "If it has HTTPS, I'll set up an HTTP redirect." Now I know that I need to think about it before setting that up.

It also made me realize that cURL's default to not redirect automatically is probably intentional and is a good default. Praise be to Daniel Stenberg for this choice when implementing cURL.

> Of course they are powerful and can pull a lot of weight but it struggles doing that.

I don't know what that sentence means. Tractors, by definition, don't struggle to pull. Quite notoriously, they can pull hard enough to flip themselves over.

Now combine the tractor with targeted spray depositing. Any technology that can be strapped to a drone, can be made cheaper by removing the expensive, fragile drone bits, and then strapped to a tractor. Farmers aren't in the business of spraying expensive chemicals onto crops that don't need them. They are VERY conscious of the costs, and are always looking for a way to lower them.

The point is that a tractor is necessary equipment that farmer already owns, and can take a combination of implements that are tried and tested, and capable of being incrementally improved on. The only thing that a drone can do that a tractor can't is move quickly.
Completely agree, and arguably why stop at API servers?

Depending on server-side HTTP -> HTTPS redirects for security reinforces/rewards bad practices (linking to HTTP, users directly entering HTTP etc.), in a way that makes users vulnerable to one of the few remaining attack vectors of "scary public Wi-Fis".
I guess we’ve gone full circle to back to curses like UIs in terminals now.
you want to solve this you give a monetary benefit to people who traffic break, a methodology of driving to create buffers in "time-space" that remove brake lights from areas and allow the flow to speed up.

Merely having an annoying alarm won't do it, if anything, i figure it would cause more road rage, because it's something that feels like its out of your control. My 2023 subaru has adaptive cruise control, and you can set the follow distance, and even the furthest follow distance feels too close in traffic. When i would do traffic breaking while driving rush hour in Los Angeles county, i'd maintain 3 car lengths whenever possible between me and the car in front, for example.

The best place to traffic break is in the "slow lanes", if you have enough people doing it the ingress/egress traffic can merge without causing issues and more efficiently, which eases traffic. The second place traffic breaking helps immensely is when there's interchanges to other freeways, you traffic break in the lane that "ends" for the other direction, so that people who wait until the last minute for whatever reason don't have to cut anyone off to merge which reduces the brake lights in that area.

i don't have any videos of me doing this, as "dash cams" weren't really a thing when i was doing it in L.A.; i suppose i could record some video the next time i'm in a populated area like DFW or NOLA

As recently as 10 months ago, my brother did a boot camp with no prior experience and landed a job as a junior dev with a ~$100k package. His class had a placement rate of maybe 2 in 3.

Meta still gets billions (10% of global) from PRC based advertisers. IIRC sure Google in billions as well. And have been this entire time.

>strip down like 50% from overall content because it is not in line with CCP's ideology?

Of course, play by same rules/guidelines as domestic players. Will also have advantage in offering filtered content from abroad vs domestic players, also will gain a shitload of unique content from PRC net. Many of interesting content producers in PRC if Google leverages AI to transcribe, translate, dub. Plus handover dissident information, but thats table stakes. And eventually get pressured to block antiPRC rags like FLG media globally or be put on sanction/unreliable entity list.
It seems to me like Israel is being held to account here just as Russia is held to account for their war crimes in Ukraine and Saudi Arabia is held to account for their war crimes in Yemen. And if you ask me, Bush and Cheney ought to be held accountable for war crimes in Iraq despite what happened on 9-11.
I stopped work at 55 after 40 years in tech, from being a developer right up to CTO. I do very little coding, mainly because there are so many other things I want to do. Having this time really makes you ask yourself what it is you really want to do and for me that means running, particularly in mountains. Like another poster I also watch a ton of stuff on YouTube about DIY and I’m learning how to do stuff on my own house and doing a van conversion (to take to the mountains). I see a lot more of family than I did and I consciously try to spend more time with and in particular give my time to help others. I’m helping my daughter a lot to break into software engineering. Like another poster I have so many things I want to do and just not enough time so I’m journaling a lot and making a lot of notes about ideas I have and these are starting to lead to some ideas about software that would be useful to me and so I expect others. I’m constantly learning what I like to do and I have so many non technical projects on the go.
It feels like people talk about Ruby like how people talked about Perl 5 when Ruby was fresh. As much as we laud software that is "done," it seems like any language that fails to evolve is soon eclipsed. Yeah there was Perl 6, but it seemed about a decade late.

I hear my own voice. Even while typing this the words are "auditorily" echoed in my head. This is my voice.

But there's also "other" voices. These are all of course also me, but they can have "different personalities." This happens when I'm arguing with myself. Think of like simulating other people or points of view to challenge yourself (self adversarial learning, if you will).

> I struggle explaining myself to folks, as the verbal/written expression is entirely different then my internal process which is largely around feelings.

I think this is normal. Despite having a strong internal monologue I still often struggle here. I think this is more the aspect that words are a (significant) compression of the ideas you're trying to convey and the people you talk to need to decompress this, but in a global society we can often be primed in very different ways so have grave miscommunications. I like to say verbal communication has 3 parts: what you intend to say, what you say, and what is heard; these don't need to be aligned, and they are never perfectly aligned. It's actually impressive that we communicate as well as we do!
I maintain a Facebook account specifically for FB Marketplace, and every time I log in I am shocked at how overly complicated and buggy the UI is. It doesn’t appear anyone cares about users enjoying the experience.
large traffic flows from one direction turning left will dominate a roundabout blocking access for everyone else. Especially at rush hour, you'll get people moving bumper to bumper leaving a city blocking traffic in all other directions. I ran into this in Indiana just north of Indianapolis. They have a few of the suburbs with large amounts of roundabouts. One of them was at a large industrial complex where everyone evidently left at 5. I swear 15 minutes of cars left there turning left and stopping the rest of the traffic.

> incurable, severe mental pain?

For me, it hits a lot of cognitive dissonance. I respect others' rights to do what they want with their bodies and lives, but this is something that is hard to empathize with because I haven't experienced the kinds of feelings that Zoraya had.
https://www.reddit.com/r/europe/comments/1d0xudy/physicallyh...

I read about this story, and the prevailing mood on the internet around her story (outside of religious folks) has been on of Empathy and support on her right to choose her own end, but also looking deeper, this woman had been diagnosed with BPD (borderline) and was fetishizing suicide and death for a long time. She had no physical ailments or pain, at 29, she was estranged from her mother but from accounts, lived with a supportive boyfriend and pets

"Ter Beek has thought about her decision throughout the long process, which takes several years to complete.

“In the three and a half years this has taken, I’ve never hesitated about my decision. I have felt guilt — I have a partner, family, friends and I’m not blind to their pain. And I’ve felt scared. But I’m absolutely determined to go through with it,” she said."

I feel like the mental health community let this woman down, her family let her down, 3 years (considering she was NOT in physical pain or terminally ill) is NOT long enough for someone as young as 29. three years is nothing when it comes to a life. Its unsurprisingly common for young people to fetishize and glamorize suicide and looking at Euthanasia as a cure for her suffering.

I also totally, agree that she should have not been harassed as she unfortunately was on social media, but Suicide is a permanent solution to a what is often a temporary problem, perhaps if she had the opportunity to change her environment, have the chance to see that much of life changes as one gets older..especially at 29.. if this was at 43 I might have felt different..

I support euthanasia but this case seems all wrong
