Agreed. It's only been a decade as an adult, but riding a waymo was my first real wow moment for a technology. Not VR, not LLMs, etc. I would actually only ride waymos over human driven taxis if they were available in my current area
It is interesting how the GA planes today have a fraction of the power of WW2 planes. I understand there are valid reasons, but... it would be too cool to fly something with the original power!

Also, even with modern jets: "This plane has enough power at max or mil" - said no fighter pilot ever.
No, because there is little evidence it's effective, which is what I said. Israel has lost ground in polling in the US and all around the world as well. If anything, there's a huge backlash online against this sort of things to the degree that it goes overboard into blatant antisemitism.
Really? What hardware was llama3 trained on?

now realize there’s 15 other models you haven’t heard of trained on the same brand’s hardware that didn’t work out / weren’t impressive enough to release.

you are literally describing Jevons paradox in action - the more efficient and practical you make the tech, the more of it we will consume. And sure, inference is easy, but training is still uniformly done on nvidia hardware, and the “software” is an incredibly non-trivial moat. AMD has been trying for literally 15 years and they’re on their third or fourth ground-up attempt to displace it… the most recent (ROCm) being over 5 years old at this point and still utterly non-competitive. Leave it to HN to imply that millions of person-hours of ecosystem building can basically be replicated in a long weekend.

(also, reminder that ollama3 has a 70b model too… and it’s a lot better than the 8b one still!)
I actually really enjoyed the latency, unintentional or not. There are a million tools I can use to create a groove exactly as I intend. I enjoyed the aspect of surprise, of recording something and it not coming out exactly as intended, somewhat wonky and imperfect. The challenge and subsequent joy of trying to “feel” the resulting groove, one that you may not have ever come up with otherwise, is a delight.
I'd call them "in operation" while they are [un]unloading.
> Technologies such as the T9 phone keyboard or the Palm Pilot handwriting alphabet briefly achieved some adoption.

Kind of tangential to the article, but Graffiti[1] (the Palm Pilot handwriting alphabet) was really quite amazing. It was remarkably simple, and once you learned it, you could write stuff fast. I literally wrote several long papers on my Palm Pilot, while out and about. I'm honestly shocked that it didn't stick around and become widespread. I thought for sure it was the future and the future was bright! What happened to that? Did it just die a typical proprietary death along with the device? Has anybody implemented it for something else, like Linux?

Your example of taking games that dare go the full Metal route makes me wonder : to which projects was adding 100% native Vulkan compatibility / support worth the resources spent on this and not something else ? What’s the full Vulkan platform having a dedicated OS running solely Vulkan with a Vulkan based GPU and for which real life uses ?
> You make a false assumption that all Linux things are equivalent and provide a good baseline feature set. They are not equivalent, each one misses something that Windows provides out of the box to an extent.

Of course, each of them possesses some advantage that Windows lacks out of the box, and sometimes at all.

What are French rules for foosball?
Getting that change onto the system sounds like "at best a big delay and at worst a nonstarter".
To me, the most important way to make more people use Linux is for manufacturers to start shipping PCs and laptops with a hardware-tested, user-friendly, and trusted Linux distro like Ubuntu.

Sadly, the "make you consider" part of the article title here is not applicable for most people, but of course is valid and good.
Curious why the FRITZ!Box is necessary? I know they popular in Germany but isn’t it like just a router OS?
They have defacto Israeli citizenship because of the law of return, no? Not saying I agree with who you're replying to, but if a few dozen congressmen had the same status in Russia, wouldn't you see them as being connected to said country?
It's also a lattice of Carbon and Silicon, a symbolic reflection of our modern cyborg world.
A bigger issue is education about which plastics to put in recycling (1 and 2 if you're unaware, 5 can be but generally isn't). All of our "recycling" heads to landfill for this reason.
Beam search.

Sophisticated folks aren't doing simplistic/stupid decoding.

Gotta go beyond LLMs 101 to see what's actually happening. Even in training folks are building models which predict several tokens ahead.
>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.

Why do they need to stay relevant? If you're willing to accept they're fantasy, then it'd be better for everyone to read Lord of the Rings instead. At least it actually promotes wholesome values and thinking, unlike the Bible which promotes rape, slavery, and genocide. The god of LotR is consistent, whereas the god of the Bible seems to be narcissistic, sociopathic, and worse, schizophrenic (somehow going from directing his followers to commit genocide, to later reproducing somehow and then promoting peace and tolerace, but only sometimes).

And at least with fantasy epics, everyone knows they're not real, so no one is setting up theocracies based on their interpretations of them and committing atrocities to support these.
If you buy a Linux laptop all of those things should work just fine, yes. Just like if you buy a Macbook, MacOS will work fine, but if you buy a Windows laptop and try to install MacOS onto it... you are likely to be in for a much worse time than trying to install Linux on a Windows laptop.
No, not at all. I mean, I could think of reasons why I could smell it, but any application of it is probably noticing that stuff is about to catch on fire in an industrial setting..

I teach engineering undergrad now.
You did it wrong. Just always estimate just above the Medicaid threshold (assuming you legitimately don’t think you’ll make much in the year). Then you get the maximum subsidy, which might even make a Bronze plan completely free. If you end up making less at the end of the year, and really should have been on Medicaid, nothing gets clawed back. If you end up making more than estimated, you just have to pay back some of the subsidy.
We're actually at step 45 or so; if you showed Windows 11 to a user 20 years ago they'd run screaming. So no, when we get to step 49 you'll have adjusted your expectations and go along with it.

Are these sort of actions not verging on unconstitutional? From the articles narrative it feels obvious that there is freedom of expression issues.

Is it because it's being hidden behind institutional regulation issues that this wouldn't be an issue here?
What a waste of time to read this.
I am surprised that three hours in and no one has mentioned constraint satisfaction yet: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constraint_satisfaction
It's not going to sound right, either - the Merlin is a very distinctive-sounding engine that is probably seared into the minds of everyone who's been to a WWII-era aircraft show. Then again, you've got nothing to fear; the Rotax engine will be fine as long as the Bf 109 replicas also have them ;)
Yea I have a hard time distinguishing focusing on return vs focusing on product. They’re complimentary, not mutually exclusive. I hope those implementing my investments are focused on both.

2 souls united, that's the meaning of life.
I don’t find that to be a compelling argument. Donors, investors, employers, and governments should not have a right to tell us how to behave in our personal lives. If he was recording his videos with university resources, on university time, or while claiming to represent the university then sure. Otherwise it’s just people trying to enforce their version of morality on others, and we should all reject that.
hey Ian, long time. Is there any chance y'all could swap out main so that main contains the generated code version?

I don't know the status on those export tools these days as I left the company years ago, but if they could sync with a different branch.

This would help various folks quite a bit, as for example tsnet users often fall into the trap of trying to do `go get -u`, which then pulls a non-functional gvisor version.
All I'm saying is the word "unnecessary" in that question clearly is a "weasel word" because, just like you're saying, it's subjective and also greatly weakens the statement. Usually unnecessary things with negative externalities are easy for people to say "sure let's get rid of that, it's not providing value". I think you're caveating something which only furthers that sentiment.
For me, it's usually when I have more than three or four languages in a single codebase and there's codegen (e.g. protobuf, GraphQL, etc) involved. It's nice to be able to `bazel test //...` a whole repo, and building minimal, reproducible Docker images becomes comparatively straightforward.

That said, I've never made the leap in using Bazel for frontend stuff, I always use NPM/pnpm/yarn without any Bazel trimmings.
I had 20 bucks and only 20 bucks. I could buy Minecraft alpha or bitcoin. I chose Minecraft. Whoops.

> There is no particular reason to think there is life out there (if there is or not - both are extraordinary)

Well, no. One of those is ordinary (“commonplace or standard”). We just don’t know which.
I'm not saying I'd welcome it, but I can't really have a problem with it since it's a constitutionally-protected activity, and the filmer is not intentionally antagonizing anyone. We have the right to ask, but we can't force them to stop. Surely doing anything physically to stop them is crossing the line into robbery or battery.

We have no expectation of privacy in a public place or in any place that can be reasonably considered public. Photographers do not have to obtain consent from anyone who is either incidentally in a recording or the subject in focus. It's surprising how many people don't know this. Someone, sometime in their past, must have taught them otherwise.
But it's so easy to defeat with a device that would random delays to packets, maybe even shuffling their order a bit. It does not need to unpack and process the packet, only record and check boundaries, even simpler than a switch.

Would introduce a configurable amount of delay variance,

Would attach directly to the Ethernet port, before the patch cord going to the rack's router.
Yeah, that's so the robot knows where the human is so it can accurately make shots. I didn't mention it in the video since it was more of an implementation detail and not too important to understand what's going on.
You can't control what information flows through an outbound connection, not even in trivial cases. Even if you straight go ahead and say "I allow you to make this connection, but I'm not even allowing you to send any data", you have timing sidechannels to deal with. In any more reasonable case, an almost infinite number of things can be used to exfiltrate any data you want, even if you think you have not only full application-level inspection, but even application-level rewrite.

Pretty much the only thing you can do is somewhat filter out known-bad, not directly motivated outbound traffic, such as malware payloads with very clear signatures. This only works if it's "not directly motivated", because as soon as there's a person who wants to do it, they can skirt around it again.
fwiw, you technically don't need a privileged container to use tun, you just need suitable permissions on the kernel tun interfaces.
Disable the feature permanently or click the Recall icon on the system tray and quickly pause it while you read the encrypted email.
Many people don't like it when their shifts change dramatically. Sure, you can cover the night when half the staff takes off to see Taylor Swift, but calling all those people in means they in turn need their next shift covered, and so forth, and you end up with an entirely different schedule of people who have never worked together, etc. This is all fixable adding more constraints, but even just writing it all down and prioritizing them isn't trivial. They're not Legos.
I'm confused by this thirst for payback. If the trump trial was unconstitutional or a witch hunt or something, then isn't the payback similarly unconstitutional or a witch hunt?
When I use regular Safari on my MacBook Pro with an M2 chip, I get many "problem loading the page" messages. Completely repeatable on ebay. But on the "Technology Preview" I never see the message. I don't usually use early release software, but in this case the Safari Technology Preview has become my main browser.
Using the product of someone's labor to build for profit systems that are trying to put them out of work remains fucked up. And no, a simple copyright filter isn't the problem. The problem is that the work was used without permission.
And incredibly, it’s not some buggy mess. They’re real, they work, and they provide utility.

They’re not perfect, but it’s not some horrible battleground of robotic bumper cars and dead bicyclists.
Like the other comment - very curious about this. Could you explain what you are doing in more detail for folks not in this space?
Second that. I used to follow advice on reddit a lot in the past. Needless to say, it made me fearful of doing anything.
> I mean, they just put astronauts into orbit a minute ago. What’d you do today?

Well, I'm currently unemployed, and my new job doesn't start for a few more weeks.

So my accomplishments for today include:

* I hung out with my kid before he went out to the school bus

* I made the guacamole for tonight's dinner, because it benefits from sitting in the fridge for a few hours.

* I partially caught up on today's new Crunchyroll episodes. But Konosuba season 3 just isn't amusing me the way the first two seasons did.

* Played "Endless Space 2" and "Age of Darkness: Final Stand" for a while, because I'm short on sleep today and my brain wasn't good for much else.

So, I didn't put anyone in orbit today, but I think I'm doing pretty okay, thank you :)
Exactly my thought, at a minimum, it should match the speed of the original.
Oooh!! I've played a bunch of glicol.org - but had no idea about the js bindings!

Might I recommend you put a link to `glicol.js.org` from your main site. I might have given this a go instead of tone.js on a recent project.
As a Tesla owner, It's great to know other companies are working on FSD that doesn't try to kill you every 30 minutes or so. I was in a construction zone a few days ago and my Tesla didn't "see" a chainlink fence and accelerated right for it. I keep both hands on the wheel with FSD activated so it's quick and easy to override but it can catch you by surprise sometimes.
They condition this with "in US" because Baidu in China is larger?
(I'm the person who made it) Yeah that's fair, but at least for me I wanted to focus on the interesting part of "making a foosball robot" which is the "foosball" part, not the "fiddle with a home built vision system that doesn't actually work" part. I realize this is a bit ironic given my channel name though haha (From Scratch).
I'm confused on why they would need a TUN device for a client or server application, so why they would need this solution in the first place(even with their explanation).

As I understand the only reason you'd use a TUN interface is if you want to send/receive raw IP packets. Their marketing doesn't make it very clear what their product does, but I can't see a reason it would need to send/receive raw IP packets rather than TCP/UDP packets over a specific port...
Going to the CEO makes no sense unless you're interviewing for a CTO position.

In my experience, the ones best able to navigate that conversation are individuals with ADHD who now medicate and can observe the difference.

Scott describes the phenomenon roughly as one’s “motivation” existing and fluctuating on a spectrum, with the absolute minimum being full sedentary psychosis and the maximum basically being mania. Some people spend their whole lives towards the edge of that spectrum and upon medication (normally a type of stimulant) bump themselves along into the “normal” range. I’ve witnessed the change for a handful of people close to me and it really is remarkable.
When they're talking about classified defense networks, the actual restrictions they mean is least privilege and separation of duties. Devs are not admins. They don't get root privilege on their machines. They can't create virtual network interfaces and they also can't change kernel settings. But if you put a full TCP/IP stack in userspace, well, they can run that and do whatever they want with it.

To answer the upstream question about why arbitary outbound connections are allowed, they're not. This is connecting to a cloud development environment, and I would have to assume this service can be self-hosted, because on a classified network, the "cloud" isn't the cloud as Hacker News readers know it. Amazon et all run private data centers on US military installations that only the military and the IC can access and they're airgapped from the Internet. If you're on a workstation that can access this environment, that's all it can access. The only place you can exfiltrate data to is other military-controlled servers.
I was thinking about spending an hour or two hooking up a chatbot api and maybe even sending it live position/score data so it could customize it's trash talk, but in the end I just wanted to get the video out so didn't. Would have been funny though!
My Kensington VeriMark just works on Windows. Doesn’t work at all on Linux.
10 years ago HN was full of threads about self-driving cars. Waymo, Cruise, Tesla, Uber... 1000+ comments shouting about the end of trucking and mass layoffs. We must have UBI now! because of the power of this technology and its rapid growth that the next 5-10 years surely hold in store.

Where exactly are we now? The greater-Phoenix metro?
> keep Musk out of things

Never heard that from people at Tesla or SpaceX.
The question the paper claims to address isn't whether current LLMs are AGI, the question is whether LLMs can reason. And solving a problem that seems to require reasoning some of the time is still evidence of reasoning - especially if the question is what we can expect this technology to do in the future.
I think this is death by 1,000 cuts for Windows. While privacy might not be a major issue for many users, when you couple that with mandatory sign-in to Microsoft accounts to use your own computer, a constant stream of commercials you are forced to view on your own computer and the never-ending up-selling of unwanted, intrusive Microsoft bloatware like Co-Pilot and One Drive, more and more people are going to be inspired (or compelled) to look for an alternative.

I've been a Windows user since Windows was originally released (and was an MS-DOS user before that), but Windows 11 is the straw that broke the camels back for me. I've dabbled with Linux before, but the lack of gaming support and the hassles to configure it properly to get all my hardware to work made it to inconvenient to switch, but I am 100% going to switch when support for Windows 10 expires. As I am the one who offers tech support to numerous relatives who are less tech savvy, I will also migrate them to the most user-friendly Linux build I can find. Almost all of them, especially the older ones, use their computers almost exclusively for web-browsing and streaming videos, and this will be a virtually seamless process for them. Most of my Gen-X friends are of the same mindset (except for the ones who have been captured by the Mac ecosystem).

Certainly Windows is not going to go away no matter how terrible and odious their OS becomes, but I think many people have underestimated just how far they can push the envelope without seeing a significant migration away from MS.
How many companies that hire a lot of juniors (ie corporates) actually use Vercel? Haven't seen one so far.

> I don't know if it is a big problem but people around the world, mainly in Muslim majority countries, hate US because of its unconditional support of Israel.

They also hate the US because of the governments we do and have supported against popular will (and/or opposed despite popular will) for non-Israel reasons (oil being a big one) in the Islamic world.

Oh, and for directly killing a bunch of them, and torturing others, fairly recently in a series of wars -- including a very large one that was very clearly a war of aggression followed by a poorly managed occupation -- ourselves, not principally motivated by Israeli interests.

Like, if Israel vanished tomorrow, a very large number of the people that hate the US "because of its unconditional support of Israel" would hate the US just as much, even though they would have one fewer thing to cite as to why.

And, foreign issues aside, Israeli influence contributes a lot less to American internal problems than other foreign influence operations do.
It really puts the AI threads in perspective. The same comments appear in those threads today.

>AGI would have to suffer to become general enough to warrant the use of the word general.

Jo Cameron doesn't have general intelligence? This seems absurd. Intelligence is orthogonal to phenomenology and affective states. People aren't worried about AGI because it might have a Cartesian theater, the worry is that it might be more competent than humans and put humans out of a job. The semantics of whether it "truly" has intelligence is irrelevant.

>Suffering is part of our intelligence and we’d be nowhere without it.

It might be part of our intelligence, but why would it need to be part of machine's intelligence? GPT4 is already beating humans at theory of mind tasks[1], and I doubt that it suffers. Our suffering is an evolutionary stroke of bad luck. It has nothing to do with intelligence itself, and it would have been better if we had evolved some other way that didn't need it.
