I'm not sure what you mean by banned or censorship, but Twitter isn't the government and I'm not sure how this example is "anti-democratic authoritarianism". Seems like they should be allowed to ban people from their platform who violate the terms of service. There are tons of platform/content providers that don't allow specific types of content even though it is legal.

If people disagree with Twitter they can leave the platform for another one or shareholders can act and have the firm change course. Trump still daily says whatever he wants on other platforms without the government censoring him.
We're about eight months in at the moment, so here are some current stats:

- No OS upgrades (running Ubuntu 22 LTS), but regular update

- We've had a power outage, but not during the day, so when they rebooted, they went right back to action. Same issue with a network outage in the office.

- We have hit disk space issues due to not clearing all the data we needed to. A quick SSH and an rm or two did the job, plus another 30 minutes to an hour to update a cron to remove that portion of the cache

I see what you mean for sure, and there will undoubtedly be more things that come up at some point, but with the savings, it would take quite a few engineering hours per month to lose the savings at this point.

And I won't lie, when something goes wrong, it's a nice change of pace to deal with a server instead of code once and a while. Can't actually use that for calculations, but I don't hate when it happens so far.
the tech is technically there using 2-5 different AI solutions, it mostly lacks an interface that automatically takes one step to the next

Eat something and take a nap, you sound unhinged.

You need to do more than include a link to the license to comply. You need to include the entire source code needed to compile the derived system.

For an LLM that would include:

1. Training data

2. Training code and metrics

3. Hyperparameter settings

4. Output weights

Anything less is really just misinterpretation of the nature of open source's provision for studying, modifying, and recompiling the LLM

Tldr; these companies MUST make the LLM into AGPL and provide all necessary codes as described above. Companies that refuse this will be raided by open source copyright trolls, if we're lucky and a little mischievous.

It sounds like there's a many-thousand-square-km area to search for 15-cm patches, which would be difficult to do for humans (in extreme heat).

But a well-designed drone trained to visually recognize candidates would be a great service, and would minimize environmental disruption. Some enterprising (resume-builder) could directly contact the researcher in question...
Our business lost around 90% of European customers. Then the odd customer now from Europe emails in a rage because they had to pay import duties… so then having to tell them that ‘Brexit’ happened!

You are so right though - most people just will refuse to accept they were taken for fools with all the nasty rhetoric about ‘people coming in to our country’… and so many have even been convinced that ripping up the Human Rights act is somehow a good thing (??? Wtf!).

Rich people manipulating the minds of poor people was what Brexit was all about. At the time I was convinced this was a Russian move to make UK weaker. But then again, I was convinced for many years that Trump was a Russian asset to make America implode (which is kind of what happened).

All this hate for foreigners. It’s disgusting.
In "any sense" of the word? Surely anyone who adjusts their behavior when they get undesired or unexpected results is reasoning and thinking. And since most activities are mediated by thought of some kind, most people are reasoning and thinking otherwise they would never recover from even simple mistakes, like walking east when they need to go north.

Saying they're "not thinking in any sense of the word" because they can't solve predicate logic problems from a college textbook is a rather odd claim. Surely those things arise from reasoning and thinking, rather than the other way around.
The difference is that existing drugs have already undergone Phase I safety trials, which takes a lot of failure risk out of the equation.

At my current job, we're issues MacBooks. My biggest pet peeve of macOS is the grouping of windows behind a single icon on the dock bar. I hate that if I have two Chrome windows open, it takes two clicks to go between them.

With the exception of modals, if a program has multiple windows open, when I should see each of them as its own item on the dock bar (or in Windows, the taskbar). I don't think even Windows makes this an option anymore, but I use WindowBlinds on my personal Win10 computer to give me that behavior while also skinning everything to look like Win2K, because I can't stand the flat aesthetic that's popular right now.
In most of the US, a house costs more than 300k. The average price atm is 513,000 according to https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/ASPUS

I'll suggest neither of us are actually right anyway. A raw piece of land that was never setup for building a house on would definitely be worth less than a piece of land that was ready for a house. Especially if it had city water/sewage, power lines, fiber for internet, etc. Add in school districts and whatever else, and again the land becomes more valuable. So having a piece of land with a house on it might be worth more than an empty piece of land - but that comes back to location! A piece of land in the middle of a developed city would be worth more than a random piece of land in rural Ohio.

Anyway, I still think it tracks. In my town an empty house-sized plot of land with utilities would probably cost similar to a house (maybe minus that $300k cost to build a house).
like I found out recently apparently the Boston police regularly go over to Israel for training?

100% yes.

TBH when I said "propaganda" I was grouping a lot of that under that when I should have been more specific.

But that and similar things is what I was referring to with "I don't understand how this much power over the US was ever deemed acceptable".

I remember seeing the articles about them funding the campaign of someone opposing someone else who had been critical if Israel. I don't remember which state or what position, but it wasn't just a one off either.
Initial thesis was - inner monologue is required for reasoning. If you define inner monologue to include everything brains do - the initial thesis becomes a tautology.
Huh, I never realized how much early versions of KDE and GNOME looked like each other. For that matter, they both resemble something in between Windows and NeXTSTEP depending on how you squint.
The idea of a sort of home-computer situated in the living room instead of the office made a whole lot more sense before smartphones.
> Vulkan would likely not really have helped macOS gaming in any form

Why not? With fully conformant Vulkan you could have run all the games that work in Wine without being hit by limitations of MoltenVK that affect performance and compatibility, same as you can run them on Linux now. So Vulkan could totally be very crucial for making gaming on macOS not being some second class experience.

Apple simply demonstrate they don't care about gaming and gamers. They only care about "approved by Apple way of gaming" which is totally not the same thing but which Apple always does for everything anyway, shoving in users' faces "we know better than you what you need".

That's why I will always say that gamers should avoid using Apple.

Ask HN: What is the future of Data annotation via LLMs?
How will these companies thrive long term? Will they survive long term? How will they have to evolve, and where do you see the space going?
Wasn't my choice, but one wasn't enough so we threw a few more at it. So mostly for performance, but the redundancy is an added benefit. They were a pretty decent space, power/heat, performance, and noise ratio for us.

Our office is a single room with six desks, so space, noise, and heat are a larger consideration for us. I use a mini PC at home for a personal server as well, but that's just because used enterprise equipment is often a great deal.
You mean without training, people cannot frame answers in the terms you've learned from training. Well, why are you surprised?

If you think reasoning is limited to the frameworks you learned from a book, you live in a small world.
This was the way things were done 20 years ago as far as I understand. Shame I mostly missed that (MySQL was flavor of the day, being free and fast and throwing a way a load of features, only to be repeated to an even greater extent by Mongo a decade later).
I could see a lot of benefits to working like that.
The state of Sourcehut and our plans for the future
I've been looking for years for a way I could make the tiniest contribution to game preservation. My most viable option seem to be getting a high quality scanner and scanning magazines, manuals, and box art. I've also noticed that while there's a great guide on how to scan material, there's no good consensus or where the files are placed or how they're organized. For example, MobyGames has an excellent assortment of scans. But they're not preservation grade scans. Internet Archive has plenty of scans, but their tagging isn't standardized. It's possible to scan something that's already been done. Perhaps the best option would be to organize all of the places that hold scans and attempt to build a standard.
How would the current value be determined? The lender has no incentive to offer you a competitive price, when your alternative is to pay the loan in full.

The point of the Danish system is that it's a market system through and through. No one needs to twist the arms of lenders to make them "allow" something.

> His monthly electricity bill in Buenos Aires has shot up to 12,000 pesos ($13.50) from 1,100 pesos ($2.50) in November

> Coupled with near 300% annual inflation

> In the first quarter of this year, nearly 18% of households could no longer meet their basic food and energy needs, up from 9.6% registered a year prior

> Estimates from UCA suggest that almost 55.5% - or roughly 25 million people - lived in poverty during the first three months of the year, up 10%

Those are some big jumps in important statistics, something ~40% in some cases.

Like another comment said this would only serve to limit demand and incentivize a more rapid shift to get off of oil's teet. The industry probably would fight hard against this and win.
Honestly IBD is one area where we've made massive progress in the past few decades. We went from having zero biologics (which means your only options were mediocre oral meds, long-term steroid use, or various -ectomies) to having dozens of biologics that each target one of a handful of major inflammatory pathways. Remicade was the first holy grail :)

For me it's OneDrive. I wouldn't trust it with a grocery list, but I do work for people that use it and there's no way I'd be able to connect to a share with an unofficial OneDrive app.

Why? I'm referring to what comprises "good", meaning democratic, policy for political content. Not an autistic implementation of rules or lack thereof. But if you want to plaster a Vote Biden poster on some poor working person, then maybe that's a discussion.

But to engage in the nonexistent autistic premise, just because I guess. It's illegal to show pornography to users under 18 years of age. Pornography can be easily blocked on that premise, utilizing a blanket ban and no opt in. 90%+ of users would be fine with that.

This feels like the “Ethereum merge moment” for AI art. Now that there exists a prominent example with the big ethical obstacle (Proof of Work in the case of Ethereum, nonconsensual data-gathering in the case of generative AI) removed, we can actually have interesting conversations about the ethics of these things.

In the past I’ve pushed back on people who made the argument that “generative AI intrinsically requires theft from artists”, but the terrible quality of models trained on public domain data made it difficult to make that argument in earnest, even if I knew I was right in the abstract.
Why does someone always do this in a thread about space stuff?

Without fail there's always some negative Nelly who already knows the answer to their downer question.

We get it. You don't care about space shit, most people don't. But why go derail a thread about a space accomplishment with negativity?

Is there much practical reason for that?

"maritime minstrels" is a little unhinged.

Can you draw a picture of an example of what you see when you think about something?
I understand that, but the article we are discussing points out that LLMs are so good on many tasks, and so good at passing tests, that many people will be tricked into blindly "taking their word for granted" -- even people who should know better: our brain is a lazy machine, and if something works almost always it starts to assume it works always.

I mean, you can ask an LLM to count letters in thousand of words, and pretty much always it will come with the correct answer! So far I don't know of any word other than "банан" that breaks this function.
Super impressive!

I'm kind of curious if you could track the ball with two wide angle cameras embedded in each axis of the table. I guess the players could obscure the ball doing that. Although I guess the players are raised a bit from the table, so might work?

I did wonder also if some kind of RF tracking could be used by embedding an RFID tag or similar in the ball.
"abundance" has long been something the right likes to proclaim themselves as.

What purpose does it serve naming a party something good, anyway? It's just a domain name grab. May as well call yourselves the "awesome politics" party but I suppose that was already taken. Because who doesn't want abundance, or awesome politics? There are lots of parties that call themselves "freedom" or "liberty" or "make our country great" that do the exact opposite.
No. Maybe an example helps. You have a users table with username as natural PK. You have an access table with timestamps of users hitting a service, with FK of username. If you query the access table for a range of timestamps and just want the usernames, they're right there in the results of the access table query. If you had instead used a synthetic user_id key, the db would have to do an additional lookup in the users table via a join for each user_id to get the usernames.

Show HN: Online Tournament for the Prisoner's Dilemma (programming challenge)
I've created an interesting (at least to me) game that I think others might enjoy. It's based on the Prisoner's Dilemma (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prisoner%27s_dilemma). Specifically, my inspiration is Axelrod's tournament/experiment (https://cs.stanford.edu/people/eroberts/courses/soco/project...) from the 1980s.

In summary, you create a strategy that's exposed via HTTP. Multiple times a day, my game server matches your strategy with someone else's, and the two strategies play a variation of the Iterated Prisoner's Dilemma. The server tracks scores and displays them on a leaderboard. All decisions from every matchup are available for public viewing.

I believe there are some interesting optimizations that will lead to an engaging challenge. Specifically, your strategy is aware of its opponent's ID from the start of the matchup, and all the opponent data is available publicly.

Right now, it's running in "beta" mode so that I can incorporate any feedback (which I'd love to have!). If you have ideas on how to improve this to make it more challenging/fun/etc., please let me know.
I have found them to be an utterly incompetent implementation.

Maybe it's an issue with my set up, but they are shockingly bad in a way that makes them feel like they were hacked together. They lack basic functionality like scroll wheel click on any navigation buttons. They are constantly slow in opening. All while missing basic considerations like "Back" isn't separated by tab, so opening a new tab and navigating to a folder makes my "Home" the previous folder for all tabs on that window.

Again, maybe it's my set up, but going back to dolphin I am shocked they get away with something so half-baked.
Sure, but I can see people still getting offended if "fck" showed up.

> We arent dealing with a technology that is 99.9% right in our most common use cases, so that we need to engineer some incredibly complex problem to expose the flaw.
