It's changed in many ways, and depends on which group of Christians you're looking at well, i am primarily looking at the catholic church itself, and protestants that came out of it. both changed a lot over the centuries.

Jesus specifically said that he did NOT come to replace anything

but he did come to reform. with the sword.

there's no real evidence to [...] his existence

historians beg to differ.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historicity_of_Jesus

and as for the words, well, the bible is authentically almost 2000 years old. so someone must have said the words that the people in the bible report. of course, given how the bible was written it is hard to find real evidence for that. so i am not faulting you for not believing it to be real.

to me that doesn't really matter. whether religions are of divine origin or a fantasy, they clearly have a strong influence on the world, and therefore we must subject them to criticism and to reform if they want to keep their relevance in the world.

alternatively, it's time to look for their replacement. it is possible that jesus already came back and the majority of the world missed it.
So many conflicting views here not sure where to start. With so many OS (OS/370 …) macOS user interface is easy. So easy to freak with a few folders within folder and size sum etc. And the market is high end enough you got some support.

But the linux hostile (even though unlike some comments behind the screen they tried to help it seems) and nvidia absence need to have some windows pc to run linux and windows.

For the compatibility, my hp Vr headset will be gone soon. And so will be my windows 10 AI cum VR due to missing some feature.

Meta Quest 3 just bought to prepare the lost of VR with most users run on windows and mac … possibility just a knowledge issue as it is a standalone Vr but to run pcvr …

Anyway I restrict myself to sdl and gl for cross platform.

As said you cannot escape … all will co-exist and each of us (and probably thee is no us) will have to find a way to live in this jungle.
On the other hand, imagine the maintenance costs in current US dollars on a modern 12-cylinder supercharged aircraft engine. Would get ridiculous very quick.
What does that prove, though? Apple gave up. Ironically, now Nvidia is one of the only remaining companies that supports OpenCL anymore.

Apple is experiencing firsthand what the lack of a CUDA analog does to a company. Whether or not they care is up to them, but clearly the laser-focus on high-performance GPU compute is not doing Apple Silicon any favors in the server space or in the desktop.
He is a founder at Tesla, as when he entered the round A financing Tesla was just three guys, some networking, and nothing more. Even the "Tesla" trademark and logo registration was made by SpaceX people. He didn't found his own car company with just J. B. Straubel (another Tesla founder who was being paid by him to develop electric car batteries at the time) because he thought it would be better to cooperate with that other group that was was inspired by the same idea and he though he would be able to concentrate more on SpaceX that way. He was wrong and had to take "take over the company" later to avoid bankrupcy, move the Model S design headquarters to SpaceX, etc. And it's now nothing like what it was when he first put money on it.

As for the loan, Fisker got an even bigger one and went bankrupt[1]. Ford took a much bigger one (justified by their size) and in 2020 still didn't manage to pay it back[2]. What is wrong with the loan Tesla took, kept it alive, and it paid back early with interest?

USA likes to tout free markets and lobby against protectionism, but aside from the UK as a first mover nobody ever industrialized without protectionism and directed industrial policy, and I would argue it is impossible or at very least inefficient.

I agree SpaceX could not have succeeded w/o the government contracts, but that is true to any space launch company. All SpaceX contracts were acquired as the lowest bidder, often offering dramatically lower prices and higher value than anyone. Just look at the Commercial Crew where Boeing got $4.49B, SpaceX got $2.6B and did a better job.

Elon time is a known phenomenon. "At SpaceX we specialize at converting the impossible to late". And delays are a common thing in the aerospace industry. Can you name a rocket in recent times that was developed faster, or even just less delayed than Falcon 1? Or than Falcon 9? I bet you find much easier to name those who were more.

Musk succeeded in two industries that were certified money pits. You have a big graveyard both before and after 2002 of bankrupt companies in both fields.

It's ludicrous to believe SpaceX succeeded despite Musk when all other "new space" companies started before or around the same time, with the same NASA/Military complex boosted engineers and contracts available to them, failed, and when Musk has been so involved in SpaceX. Instead of unverified accounts, what about hearing about the organizational structure of early Spacex from a senior NASA scientist that worked with them[3] (the whole series of videos with him is very interesting), or many other similar accounts [4]?

I was thinking websockets; though, I thought those largely hit the same criticisms? That is, tons of things moved to them specifically to avoid any firewall rules about what they were allowed to send over a network.

Arguably, this basic phenomenon has been going on for 20+ years. A lot of people by 2005-2007 or so had come to belive (and probably correctly) that a lot of the impetus for adopting SOAP based web-services over the preceding few years was simply because everything ran over ports 80 and 443 which were already open in the firewall. So deploying a remote service this way was more tractable than submitting a request to allow access to yet another port in firewall, and deal with the inevitable bureaucratic nightmare of getting that approved.
How do you even vote against that?
as an EM, 12mo is too short and I will pass them if i see 3+ of those in their career (say 10yrs). why would I spend my resources to train you for a couple of months and you leave me in another 6-8mo. it will take a senior dev at least 3-4mo to be fully productive. In your example, you are effectively doing a temporary hire for 6-8mo.
A TCP/IP stack is not an "implementation of syscalls". The things most netstack users do with netstack have nothing to do with wanting to move the kernel into userland and everything to do with the fact that the kernel features they want to access are either privileged or (in a lot of IP routing cases) not available at all. Netstack (like any user-mode IP stack) allows programs to do things they couldn't otherwise do at all.

The gVisor/perf thing is a tendentious argument. You can have whatever opinion you like about whether running a platform under gVisor supervision is a good idea. But the post we're commenting on is obviously not about gVisor; it's about a library inside of gVisor that is probably a lot more popular than gVisor itself.
> Try finding alternatives to Excel with its entire feature set (no cheating all SQL db integration and VBA equivalent scripting)

If you need those many features you should not be using Excel.

> PowerPoint with all the integration with other Office, Solidworks with its entire feature set, Altium with its entire feature set, Siemens NX, Catia, SAP, Ansys, Active Directory, Adobe Creative Suite or Affinity or CorelDRAW, Cubase, Sibelius just a start

The most critical business software in the world never left the mainframe. The one that did now runs on Linux somehow or their competitors do. If it doesn't run then it can run on a compatibility layer like Wine or on a VM.

> Active Directory

The most overhyped software ever. Some phishing e-mail can bring an entire organization using Active Directory to its knees.
I don't see why he would be ashamed? It's a calculated risk is all I'm saying. He knew maybe in the back of his mind it could blow up.

>what should it matter?

University donors don't like it. That's all. They have the right to feel that way.
I do research as a hobby. It resulted in a published data set and news article that was picked up by global media outlets. The article led to a documentary.

And, I just keep doing the research because I love the research part of it. I find it relaxing and it allows me to stretch my tech skills at the same time.
How does that make it better? :p
> You can realistically use something like this to maybe bump rents a bit

Which would be illegal.
Your point was lost when you condemned individuals on Lexapro. Are you suggesting that individuals on Lexapro are lesser? Worse?
Deep Learning with PyTorch
Yeah, I played a lot of Ultima back in the day and I don’t recognize those. Doesn’t match Ultima III, for sure.
Internally yes they probably convert but it is not exposed anywhere, kind of like Chemical reaction you convert everything to Mols internally to do the calculations but externally you report all of the inputs as a mass.

The control system won't tell the operator to add an extra 0.3 mols of reactant or to tilt the furnace by Pi/4 radians
> the AGPL is not yet twenty years old.

That's only true IF you're thinking specifically of the GNU AGPL. The AGPL - more broadly construed - has a pre-GNU history that goes back further. That said, the GNU AGPL evolved out of the original AGPL. See:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Affero_General_Public_Lice...

In March 2002, Affero, Inc. published the original Affero General Public License (AGPLv1) for use with the Affero project and made the new license available for use by other software-as-a-service developers.
The most insane thing about this is that the company is German.
Modern example of a PT6 turboprop powered aircraft that is a cropduster adapted into a tactical light attack platform: https://www.airforce-technology.com/projects/air-tractor-at-...

Undoubtedly in the many millions of dollars per unit purchase price category, so a whole other thing than something that's cheaper than a Cirrus SR22.
You seem to have an axe to grind. You might spend more time trying to get quality out of the models. It is possible!
Whoa. I've wondered about that exact question for a while, whether a proper class exists between RL and CFL. Relevant Wikipedia link, for posterity: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nested_word

Thanks for sharing!
If the West wants to fight Russia’s military nfluence they could try being less corrupt. I think it’s a major weakness.
Smalltalk does have precedence, just not among infix operators. It has keyword, infix, and postfix expressions and needs to specify the relative precedence between those. In other words, the language has to decide if:

a b: c - d e

Is parsed like:

a b: (c - (d e))
a b: ((c - d) e)
(a b: c) - (d e)
(a b: (c - d)) e
((a b: c) - d) e
They never look right.

It's not just the fact that it should be 9x16 instead of 8x16, or that sometimes (often?) the aspect ratio is off, it's something fundamental about how that 9x16 VGA font was rendered on CRTs.

A really good CRT emulation on a really good flatscreen monitor can maybe simulate the VGA text mode experience of the day, but so far I haven't really seen it.
There seem to be some sort of tracking dots on top of some of the “players” but that didn’t seem to be mentioned in the video.
Elon absolutely focuses on making money, which is why it was successful. I don’t know why your conclusion is completely backwards.

Do you think blue origin is focused on making money? They haven’t done anything that would indicate that.

SpaceX on the other hand focused on landing rockets completely to make money. There is no other reason to do it and it’s why NASA never focused on it.

Starlink is entirely to make money to feed the mars mission long term.

You might say that his visions aren’t focused on money, but the execution is ruthlessly so. It’s why both companies are famous for squeezing their suppliers so hard and inhousing when they can.
When I was cooking professionally I was pretty serious about it, and one thing that was really striking was that almost all of the good research done about food processes was in response to the needs of large-scale commercial food producers. There are still quite routine kitchen processes that are incompletely understood and not under active research, because they are of no interest to the industrial food system that drives most of the research.

In a totally different vein, there are alternative & traditional sailboat riggings that have no value to race sailors for tightly constrained performance reasons, and have been completely abandoned by production boat builders. The optimal configuration of sail surface and control lines for these rigs on modern hulls is actively researched by amateurs, sometimes with quite a lot of rigor.

Someone I know is an orchardist with an interest in historical/regional pear varietals. Most of them don't stand up well to shipping and so are commercially unviable, but he communicates with a loose network of other similarly interested growers, exchanging information about growing conditions, pests, and results specific to these fruits.

I'm sure there are many many other examples, these are just some that I'm aware of. I don't think there's a single place where this sort of thing happens, I doubt most practitioners even think of themselves as participating in research per se separate from their specific interest.
I tend to admire that Socrates used arguments in the process of that, unlike both of us right now.
PCsensor USB Thermometer hwmon driver
I wrote my first linux kernel module! This is a fairly popular, cheap linux usb thermometer.

But it didn't have a kernel driver to support reading temp from hwmon on linux.

Which I wanted to use fancontrol with it.
Because a huge part of the regulatory agencies’ monies comes from royalty payments from the companies they’re supposed to be managing.
> If there are a million households who need a housing unit, need it so they're not on the street, but there are five million housing units in the area, housing will still be very cheap

This is only true if enough of those five million housing units are competing to get filled

If a single person or company owns all five million housing units, they can set the exact same, arbitrarily high price for all of those houses. Then it's a problem for the people who need houses: take it or leave it
Here's an idea: maybe don't take every crackpot theorist at face value.

This guy has gotten way too much press for saying 1+1=1. It's time we all just say he's a nutbag and leave him alone to make old pots into brain shielding helmets and drink his own urine or whatever he's going to end up doing.
> Unlike airplanes ... cargo ships are in nearly constant operation

Cargo ships do do much of their maintenance underway, but other than that, I'd say the difference is a lot less. (Not that this is a big deal, more pedantic). Cargo ships turn around in ports over a few days, unloading, loading. They may also wait for hours or days for a berth.

That really doesn't mean much in a society that has perfected the art of manufacturing consent[0]

"The survey puts numbers on trends that have become increasingly apparent: Cable news viewers are more supportive of Israel’s war effort, less likely to think Israel is committing war crimes, and less interested in the war in general. People who get their news primarily from social media, YouTube, or podcasts, by contrast, generally side with the Palestinians, believe Israel is committing war crimes and genocide, and consider the issue of significant importance.

WE OFTEN HEAR people say that “Twitter isn’t real life” or that “Nobody watches cable news,” but the survey asked where people get most of their news, asking them to pick just one, and cable and social media won out. Most Americans do in fact get their news either primarily from cable (42 percent) or social media like TikTok, Instagram, or another platform (18 percent). A third of people said they get their news from YouTube or podcasts, with 13 percent saying they got most of their news that way.

Asked generally where folks got their news on a day-to-day basis, with a “check all that apply” option, it’s even more clear how dominant cable (55 percent), social media (38 percent), and podcasts/YouTube (34) are compared to print, at 21 percent. (I read the survey as using “print” as a stand-in for any text-based media, whether digital like The Intercept or on actual printed paper.) "

Even the polls you referenced show how stark the contrast between young and old americans are on this topic. Some of the older americans barely have any education on this topic but just stick with the zionist propaganda they were fed when they were younger, they couldn't even locate Israel/Palestine on a map.

Most of the older christian zealots don't have the critical thinking skills or capacity to change their mind on the topic because their indoctrination is so thorough that they'd rather deny reality than face the facts. Not surprising considering they grew up on a mantra that the so called "chosen" people can do no wrong.

I think if those christians who voted favorably had seen how israelis spit[3] on christians and assault[4][5] christians, their opinions would change swiftly, but the news channels they consume won't feed them this reality because consent needs to be manufactured.

And the obstruction of the FOIA process helps entrench the resulting corruption.
Good point. It’s not like trump is going to stop current wars. At least he didn’t start any new ones.

We can at least not vote for people who we know for sure will keep retrying the same nonsense that didn’t work from the past. Put Victoria nuland in your cabinet? Not voting for your party next election.
Coverage. Metal only covers Apple. Vulkan covers so much more.

But money talks and game engines want a slice of that sweet apple pie.
I do mostly agree with this comment, although I would like to point out that one of the only reasons that MacOS has less driver issues is because it is mainly built for one type of device, Macs. Also, the upgrade quirks might come from the overlap in between dependencies of packages that don’t update at the same time as each other or the dependency, such as the qtile window manager, which can be easily fixed with using the Nix Package Manager, and the software incompatibility could be solved by using a Virtual Machine. Although, these solutions also have some quirks so they just might end up switching back anyway.
I think some actual GTOs are driven in anger as well. I saw the Monterey historics in 2006, and I believe the cars were original per the rules.

As an aside, I think the 250TR is one of the absolute prettiest cars ever built. Prettier even than the 250GTO. I'm equally unlikely to own either though.

Ask HN: How to use LLM to update app UI/UX dynamically?
Has anyone been using LLM to update user interfaces of web apps? I don’t even know if there is already a coined term for this line of thinking. If anyone is wondering, I’m imagining of leveraging LLM to learn from user’s interaction with the web app and dynamically change and optimize the user interface and experience based on the user’s goals. Essentially the app and the model will update and evolve together over time, each user’s experience would also be unique and personalized.

The tech stack would essentially involve continuously evolving LLM generated front end code, backend code, database schema, model training and inference based on the users interactions and inputs. I’m trying to be technology agnostic as possible to not limit the possibilities here.
Gene therapy is opening miraculous doors in medicine. One more generation and I expect many of today's diseases will be entirely treatable, with some eliminated (provided they don't get caught up in politics).
> he was talking about targeting waste and fraud, not benefits

"Waste, fraud, and abuse" — how many times have we heard that before?
Diffusion models still have plenty of room to grow (vision/video is orders of magnitude more expensive and larger) and we're only beginning to experiment with agent (AI -> AI Agent) workflow communication and automation.
To be fair, math is a language in itself... with many dialects come to tcreditors.

At the end of the day though, thought requires communication, even if internal. Even physics is modelled as some sort of 'message passing' when we try to unravel what causality really is. Similar to how a processor has cycles, I think/know similar (but unsynced) happens as part of what we call 'thinking'.
How to create community around an open source product with commercial bias?
hey everyone.

a few days ago, i posted here about the launch of our open midaz repository (github.com/lerianstudio/midaz), a transactional database stack for banks/fintechs in general, with integrations for instant payments, debit card processing, credit card processing, payment processing (via payment gateways), etc.

now our big challenge begins. i know that the open source community contributes very little code to products that have a commercial bias (like ours, which is open source in distribution, but will have plugins that will cost, in addition to offering the possibility of hosting on our infrastructure also at a cost).

most open source projects with a commercial bias have little contribution from the community in code, but several of them have a lot of community interaction in criticisms, suggestions, discussions about features, architecture, etc.

and that's exactly where i would like the community's support. to build a product that yes, can be used by any company/individual, due to its open source nature (including stack of infra up and running helm/docker), but more than that, it has a very important competitive differential compared to closed-source financial ledger options on the market.

and then comes my question. how to encourage the community to build together with us from a product perspective (and not code)? how to encourage the community to enter into a discussion with us on deep design pattern themes (ie. race condition, circuit break, synchronism of acid dbs in multiple instances etc.), that is, real intellectual challenges.

i have been seriously thinking about not even offering the hosting path for this ledger, since it would be something "paid" (for obvious reasons, infra costs on our side), so that there is no conflict between product construction x commercial bias, and actually charge for the various plugins that we will create on our side (and which i hope the market will also build).

thoughts? ramblings here, but i would love to hear from you.
