1) Get rid of this urge to find any word is used as swear word in one of 100s languages used across the world. People who are looking to get offended will get offended with certainty.

2) Over time euphemisms become dysphemisms and vice versa. So if new words are added to swear word categories surely old ones are falling off that list. One can possibly keep track and use those.
Felt | Community and Social Media Reps and Sales Engineers) | REMOTE (US timezones only) | Full Time | https://felt.com

Felt is the best way to make maps and work with geospatial data on the internet. It's surprisingly hard to make a map today, and people in 15+ industries rely on them to do their jobs. We are taking on an industry that's been stagnant for more than 30 years, but is essential to the workings of practically every company.

Felt is the first easy-to-use collaborative mapping software, founded by a team of technologists with a proven track-record. My co-founder and CEO, Sam, is a former YC founder who sold his previous company [1] and I'm an early Uber engineer.

First, we are looking for a Community and Social Media Rep. who will put our platform in the front the eyes of the right people, foster the right kind of community and be our voice online. The ideal person will have worked for a technical product and knows how to talk about it, have worked on launches (we do a lot! [2]]) and is comfortable in a start-up environment.

Second, we are looking for sales engineers who will help close the loop with our customers. We operate in a very technical field and our sales engineers will be bridging the gap between what our customers want and what our tools can do for them.

We are well-funded, and have been around. You can read more about it our funding here [3], and our announcement here [4]. Our terms are employee-friendly terms such as early exercise, a 10-year exercise window and even a matching 401(k).[5]

If you are an experienced Community / Social Media Rep or a Sales Engineer, please reach out via hello@felt.com and mention HN.

I've had good luck with Safari or Firefox's reader mode on most content that's long-form. Obviously web-apps don't apply.
I have to scroll with the mouse wheel just to make the scroll bar appear, and then be quick enough to get the pointer over it so I can drag it before it disappears again. It is super irritating.
It can be worthwhile to have two resumes/stories for the same facts:

One is Vibgyor5 the startup wizard who has assisted with multiple early-stage startups and is ready to go again!

The other is Vibgyor5 the corporate 9-5er who by happenstance ended up working at a number of companies that are no longer operational.
Ask HN: Open-source Spring Framework 5.x fork?
Any discussions about a reload4j-style community fork for Spring 5.x?
This is very cool approach, will try it out for my next PCB.
Apple themselves have around 10% IPC uplift with M4 too.

The real issue is that most code people run doesn't use very much SIMD and even less uses AVX-512.
I'm more just looking for a consultant to help me with the pitching.

I'm paying everyone fairly for their work.

If trying to fund it to make into a commercial project is too hard I'll just open source everything.
To be clear, I think this law is bad, and I don't think these exclusions are the right way to go about it.

I just also think that it's worth considering that there are some communications where the cost of leaking data is higher than the cost of a very low chance of catching CSAM. These exclusions are overly broad in my opinion (the cost of most of these comms leaking is low to non-existent), but there are good reasons for some limited communications to either be excluded or have an alternative system.

A Watergate scenario weakens shared belief in the government/democracy. Leaking nuclear secrets is obviously bad. Leaking troop locations/movements is also very bad. A prosecutor getting access to communications between a defendant and their lawyer would be very bad.

My preferred solution would be to not have the scanning, for various reasons including that exclusions would either be so broad that practically nothing gets scanned or too narrow and we'd eventually have some kind of crisis.
Further, we're good at building really big radio transceivers here on Earth, we don't have nearly the same technical experience with lasers of that scale.
That's a you problem, not something shown by the wage growth data.
Thanks for the heads up. This is amazing.

I've been watching cuda since it's introduction and Polars since I had an intern porting our Pandas code there a couple years ago but I had no idea Polars would go this far, this fast!

GraphQL Needs New Thinking
MacOS is Unix -- a BSD-derived Unix operating system called "Darwin" underlies the user interface.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darwin_(operating_system)
Maybe the extinction is the population of users that's entirely unused to graphical user interfaces. You don't need to take that group into consideration anymore, so, goodbye to usability experts.

But the obvious result is that now, computer illiterate people are completely fucked

I had a father (he was 56 in 2022 so not even that old) who refused to learn how to use technology. But in 2022, he couldn't find an apartment without help, he couldn't find a job without help, he couldn't do his paperwork without help, even finding a restaurant's phone number to make a reservation would take him ages because who the fuck bothers filing for the yellow pages anymore? Are they even still a thing?

At some point surely he would've caved and pushed through to get a smartphone and a laptop. But at that point, how hard would it be to learn it all on your own?

I use ESP32 mostly but I have a cheap hack that fits a lot of projects...

For super quick easy custom controllers, also consider pulling the control board from discarded USB keyboards. Use conductive glue instead of solder to attach wires to the contacts, and a helping of hot glue to keep them secured. I've made cheap but very robust 1-button game controllers with an arcade button that sends a space bar click. You get all the debounce etc, no code.
Supercede | Software Developer (Haskell) | REMOTE | Full Time

Supercede builds industry-leading risk placement and analytics software for the reinsurance industry. We're all-in on functional programming, and we're looking for more help.

Our tech stack is predominantly:

- Haskell (Yesod, Conduit, Persistent/Esqueleto, HSpec/QuickCheck, Shakespeare, Aeson)

- Nix

- PostgreSQL

- HTML, CSS, and [minimal] JavaScript

You must have demonstrable experience building things in idiomatic Haskell, and you should have a solid understanding of how web applications typically work. You should be able to communicate clearly in English, but you do not need to speak English natively. You'll have flexible working hours and you can work from anywhere, though this is a full-time position and the expectation is that of work based on a traditional 40 hour week, with 25 days of paid annual holiday in addition to your country's national holidays.

We favour asynchronous communication, and try to hire "managers of one". We don't do daily stand-ups. We don't count your hours. We don't work weekends. We support each other in working and learning, and we have 20% time where programmers are able to work on open source and/or research projects. We value colleagues who are kind, diligent, and tenacious.

Are you a good fit? Please write me a brief email introducing yourself with your résumé attached to jezen@supercede.com.
No thanks on touch screens for desktop monitors. My monitor is right at the limits of my reach without leaning forward. Plus, I have enough problems keeping the screen clean as it is.
The problem with tailwind is it does away with separation of concerns and messes up HTML, like the old styling tags in HTML. We moved on from those for good reasons.
Google’s can be stopped with a t-shirt that has a stop sign on it. I suppose adversarial research is only just starting for all this and many holes will be blown through this tech in the coming years. Especially through the single modality systems like Tesla’s.

Hey! I'm a life-long self-taught programmer and I'm looking for a first job.

I had started a mathematics bachelor's degree a few years ago but I decided to not go down the academic path in face of AGI; I'd rather help an AGI that is safer and a safer transition into AGI.

So now my plan is to get a full time job to pay the bills and, in the free time, get up to date with the recent literature and in a few years be able to join an AI research team.
I’ve commonly seen OpenMoko’s ID, 1d50, used for free projects. See the list at <http://www.linux-usb.org/usb.ids>.
> LOL on at least two separate occasions my "opponent" has said that wealth is finite

Only with the qualifier of, "at one instant in time."

Now answer this question: in the real world, are we frozen at one instant in time? Or does time flow?
A key advantage is that LLMs dont have emotional states that need to be managed.
Everything as a concept in CS is just a fancy version of sticking lambdas together, or literally connecting dots with arrows. Having more specific names for the fancier arrangements helps a lot.
China around 1AD had iron production comparable to England at start of industrial revolution. They were also starting to use mechanization (quote from wiki bellow).

> The effectiveness of the Chinese human and horse powered blast furnaces was enhanced during this period by the engineer Du Shi (c. AD 31), who applied the power of waterwheels to piston-bellows in forging cast iron.
Pareto.AI | Multiple Roles | 100% REMOTE | https://pareto.ai

Pareto.AI is in the premium data labeling space, focused on ethical, high-quality labeling. We are currently working with some the largest names in the AI space and growing rapidly.

We have a few full-time, fully-remote roles available:

1. [Entry-level OK] Data Ops Managers live between the client and the rest of the team, capturing details about the projects and coordinating between the different teams to ensure the data labeling gets done. If you're familiar or experienced with project management then this is a role you'll excel in, but we're equally open to bringing on entry-level people looking to gain experience --> https://coda.io/d/_dVweWtFuF-G/_suJlq

2. [Targeting Mid-level] A role suitable for 'hackers' who enjoy working with mixtures of technologies on constant short and medium term (few weeks to a few months) projects for more custom labeling projects. In the last few weeks this has involved things like overlaying text over screen recordings with ffmpeg, SQL + Python scripts to clean and prepare data for annotation, building a Django dashboard that collates information from multiple sources, and so on. Almost all greenfield, requires coordinating with clients to interpret the project requirements, estimating the complexity and eventually choosing the right tools for the job and executing on the work. A truly 'whiteboard to deployment' role where you get to have full ownership. This team is currently just made up of senior devs, so we're largely targeting mid-level devs at the moment to round it out --> https://coda.io/d/_dVweWtFuF-G/_suZtt

3. [Mid-Senior level] Customer Support Manager. Requires a decent amount of overlap with PST and PHT hours --> https://coda.io/d/_dVweWtFuF-G/_sujaL

These are exclusively full time roles -- we can't accept part time or fixed term contracts. Code-writing roles require a strong command of Python fundamentals. We are a fully distributed, remote-first company with an engineering team spread around the world. There is essentially no restriction on where you're located as long as you're able to be present for our core collaboration hours of 8am PST to 1pm PST.

No recruiting agencies or similar, we're only interested in filling the open full-time roles.

Please mention me directly or HN when applying to avoid getting caught up in the screening flow. Please answer all of the questions in the application form.

We want and we will. It’s just the minority of us that will have to push progress forward, as has always been the case.
This maybe driven by your platform. The only way to "bookmark" an event you are interested in on meetup.com is to click "going", so people do that.

If there was an "interested" option, the flake rate would go way down.

There was a Scott Alexander post about how the point of expertise is the ability to out predict the statistical odds.

I’m struggling to find that post.

Edit: Found it. https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/heuristics-that-almost-alwa...
Terrific false dichotomy — bravo. The post I was responding to was critiquing the prior post on the grounds that people make decisions without a scientific basis all the time. My point was that people are free to make these decisions, but that governmental mandates should be held to a higher standard.

I of course would not have said that we could have reduced covid infections by following the steps you suggest. But governmental mandates need to take into account both sides of the ledger. If having kids in school could have prevented massive learning loss and not resulted in significant additional deaths/hospitalizations, then that's something worth considering.
Yeah... what's up with these commits that just add a dot or ""? Looks very much like just boosting the commit count.

90% of the commits are just adding nonsense.

update to latest = 21+16

release = 4+1

bugfix = 3+2

update readme = 3+35+35+35+35+35+35+35+14

total = 309 out of 341 commits

The commits stopped at Jun 25, 2016 when it was just a "Custom JDBC Driver and Authenticator Example" and then suddenly Feb 23, 2023 it became "qStudio - Free SQL Analaysis Tool"
I must have phrased it poorly, because I never meant to imply half-eaten food. The idea is to portion it out before the food is brought to the table. ("half of their meal is then portioned out" should have been phrased differently; "first" instead of "then" is a better fit)

For the same node, you aren't cutting power by 40% while increasing clockspeeds. At best, they could be aggressively cutting clockspeeds, but that means lower overall performance.

Marketing seems a more likely reason (and I don't believe it would be the first time either).

Open-Source Evaluation and Testing Framework for Computer Vision Models
Hey,

for the past weeks, we’ve been developing an open-source evaluation and testing framework for computer vision models. Today we’ve released the first alpha version and would love to get your feedback and support.

Github: https://github.com/moonwatcher-ai/moonwatcher

*What problems are we solving?*

- *Manual, error-prone evaluation:* Assessing model quality is still a manual and error-prone process. Of course, aggregation metrics exist, but they usually overlook that the model works differently on some parts of the data.
- *Lack of a single source of truth:* Teams struggle to align on AI quality. There are multiple metrics and not all stakeholders understand their meaning and implication. Moreover, manual evaluations from different model versions are stored in Notion, Jira, Google Docs et al which makes it difficult to find reliable data about model quality.
- *Testing for compliance:* The AI Act is coming into force in the next months. Becoming compliant requires teams to fully understand the capacities and limitations of their models and document them. One way of doing that is through testing. BY THE WAY: Some companies out there charge an between 100k-300k for a certification. We believe that there needs to be an open-source alternative that ensures a vibrant ecosystem which can release innovative products without paying a fortune.

*Features*

*Open-Source Package*

- *Automated Checks:* There is a set of automated checks that you can run. For now, we’ve started with image features such as brightness and saturation. In the future, we plan to develop more complex automation checks based on image content, bounding box size etc.
- *Customizable Checks:* Of course you can write your own custom checks.
- *Quick Demos:* We’ve set up demos that help you understand how it all works.

*Web App*

- *Visualize Results:* You can visualize the test results and browse relevant images to debug failure cases. In the future, we want to allow non-technical team members to use the app to create tests and align on model results.
- *Share Insights:* Non-devs are used to using non-dev tools. We believe that it’s important to establish a common ground where engineers and non-technical stakeholders can communicate to foster a common understanding of model quality.
- *Try the Demo:* Log in at [app.moonwatcher.ai/sign-in](http://app.moonwatcher.ai/sign-in) with:
- Email: [demo@moonwatcher.ai](mailto:demo@moonwatcher.ai)
