I don't know what Kitty is. I probably don't want Kitty. I'll probably go do something else now.

yeah this one is much less presentable than Anthropic's work. It sure looks bad on them to be compared so poorly like this.
As I recall, the spaceships in the -movies- gently lowered themselves onto the land, or even into a porthole, on a well-formed plume of flame. Without flaps! So watching these images of things flapping and flailing and sputtering causes mental discordance.

NVSS has reported monthly updates on this since the 60s, it's wrong to say it wasn't known statistically I think. Maternal mortality review committees have existed since the 1930s also which provide extra data. Maternal mortality is one of the most important vital metrics to track for any country so it indeed would be surprising not to have more data.
I guess there'd still be. Finding one that's also competent enough to be trusted to lead the mission will be quite hard tho.
Ah, the American dream/philosophy: "If you work hard, you'll be successful". If you believe this, then you have to believe the reverse: "If you're not successful, that's because you're a lazy fuck". Just look at OP preaching this.

Please try again with Vulkan 1.3 and reassess how "terrible" the API is.

And use some high level library like vk-bootstrap to do the boring init work.

Because once it's set up, Vulkan 1.3 is about as easy as OpenGL (if you stick with OpenGL-level stuff).

It is easier than WGPU because the RenderPass stuff required in Vulkan 1.0 (and hence WGPU) is gone, removing a lot of boilerplate code.

Pipeline barriers are the only "complex" thing remaining but even they are somewhat simplified with the right defaults (sharing mode) and simplifications (set stage masks to all commands, overhead is negligible on desktop devices).

Use push descriptors for "bindful" textures, set all your pipelines states dynamic (except blending), and timeline semaphores for sync.

For simple stuff (OpenGL level) it's a pleasure to work with, and you get rid of all the OpenGL quirks.

Complex stuff like bindless texturing and GPU driven rendering is still complex, but that's the same in all APIs.

It can still be a bit verbose and the init code is too much work (but you do it only once), but after it is set up it's quite okay.

And if you want OpenGL, use OpenGL. Zink (OpenGL on Vulkan) guarantees that it will be supported, even if GPU vendors stop keeping their GL drivers up to date (has not happened yet).
Man! this plus the teenage suicide/mental health rate stats also possibly being an illusion (Obamacare changed data rules the same time mobile social media was taking off, obfuscating everything) has really thrown me for a loop. Not sure what to believe!
This is a good point. If you do not count the half of births that aren’t covered by Medicaid, all of them are
It is very relevant. The US definition of maternal death is very expansive. The expanded definition counts any reason a woman who was recently pregnant and dies.

The prototypical example is murder by a spouse. While tragic and extremely important to collect for policy reasons, it is not what “maternal death rate” typically measures.

I totally agree. But it also seems like a lot of people don't. Frustratingly enough when discussions like that come up a lot of people respond with a "MacOS just works differently, you just need to get used to it" discussion killer.

Yeah, I know some design principles are different. That doesn't always mean they are better or couldn't be better.

In general I feel like UI/UX on MacOS for the most part has stagnated in the past decade or so. Where there has been evolution, it mostly has been things (poorly) ported over from iOS (system preferences for example).

This in contrast to other desktop platforms that have kept evolving and experimenting with other ways of working. Granted, not always improving things but often making things much better. Window management on windows 11 for example is just plain awesome imho. Certainly on wider screens or screens in portrait it is extremely powerful.

Everything I am working on MacOS I feel very limited in that area. Even with tools like Rectangle it still doesn't work as fluid as it does on windows.
>now we're going to have a million different wrapper libraries to do everything, or you're going to be stuck with the absurd Vulkan API.

The more things change...

Fact is that most people will never directly touch such things unless they are a) a graphics programmer at a handful of companies or b) someone like this author doing something more for education than to produce raw business value. our "high level libraries" are Unity and Unreal if you're makinig a game (and some smaller engines), and BGFX et al. if you're making your own small engine. The work is already done without Khronos lifting a finger for implementation.

the recipients of a) are the ones who asked for more control. They are paid pretty well so they have plenty of time to grok the specs compared to a small time creator, so rapid prototyping isn't prioritized.
Never? Google will probably reduce their SWE more and more assuming we get exponentially better at LLMs or something better comes along, but it won't ever be fully replaced.

I'm a dual Estonian-Canadian citizen and after getting my Estonian national ID card last year I just bought a card reader to log into the digital services.

I'm absolutely blown away by how clear and functional these services are and how seamless and user friendly the whole thing is.

Obesity in America is an undeclared national emergency.

I know they have this in Finland, but I suspect it's more as tradition than need. The other Nordic countries does not have anything like that. In Norway there's a diaper brand that gives out boxes to new mothers, but it's more like a fun thing than something that is needed.

What works is a proper health care system with a predefined care path for pregnancies including regular checkups, access to courses and educational material about pregnancy and child birth, low bar for paid sick leave for pregnant women and paid maternity leave mandated by law.

OK thats all fine, this kind of discrepancies/errors happen all the time in statistics. You for some reason completely avoid massive discrepancy between 0 and what US reports. The fact that its slowly falling from relative stratospheric heights gives no comfort to common US citizens, when clearly it can be done much, much better.

I think we all know most probably the main reason - US healthcare is a business with huge prices compared to anywhere else in the world including nations with higher salaries, not public service. So its all nice and top notch if you have millions in some form, not if you are remaining 95% of the country. General compassion to fellow citizens in need is not a strong point of US in general, is it.

People like me could move literally anywhere in the world if wanted. I moved to Switzerland from my crappy home country for example. But hell will freeze sooner than I would want to raise my kids or get old in US, no thank you for many reasons and this being one of biggest.
This says failure of Raptor during landing is excepted from investigation, doesn’t that imply that FAA will have to investigate the failure of Raptor during launch?
Here's two I can remember off the top of my head.

This one is just a magazine profile story with a musician. It was titled "First recording of tinnitus raises new questions", which instead of sharing the recording, was an interview with a musician and shared her album pieces. I see that it was recently renamed to " An Interview with Lola De La Mata about tinnitus", which is more accurate because I would not have opened it.
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40600748

Here's another one titled "Pleasure or Pain? He Maps the Neural Circuits That Decide." It's also a profile piece, and half the article is full page pictures of the scientist and his life story. It's just a magazine article on the man, and not really going into his work. It actually has "magazine" in the name so I should have expected that.
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40238788

And then of course there's the current article which is is a misleading headline that's actually an ad for their services. Hey, pretty cheap, but not what I'm looking for here.
If the US spent more on healthcare, it would save billions in the further decades because the illness' rate would plummet down.
It's tragic, that the whole "superhero" narrative around neurodiversity was probably meant to be hopeful, but yeah, it's almost the opposite nowadays. Plenty of people with autism e.g. don't have special skills, they just have it harder really.

Even despite that, I still find the idea hopeful and worth discussing. Whether something should be considered a strength or a weakness _does_ depend, at least in some cases and to some degree, on your perspective and actions.

Some superhero fiction even covers this aspect. A quite interesting example would be One Piece, where a number of people ate a special fruit that gave them superpowers, but they lose the ability to swim. Since the world is mostly ocean, that's a huge deal, and the main character is initially depressed about having made that trade, until he learns to appreciate his new powers.

So I guess this neurodiversity-is-a-super-power narrative can be both be bad (proper help and understanding is denied) and good (e.g. increased self confidence).

You have a credible source for that? I have never noticed a drone fly anywhere near me in my lifetime except one by a television news crew several years ago.

If anything, if I lived in a crime-ridden area, I would appreciate surveillance by the police.
Regardless of how you feel about diversity or who's fault all the differences in groups are, it's disingenuous to compare the least diverse country in the world to the most diverse like this.

Wealthy white people in America surely have great maternal mortality rates, too.
I once had a fancy bash prompt that displayed git status. Turns out that git status hits the network to check the state of the remote repo, and if you are having DNS issues, that's a 30 second timeout every time the prompt is displayed.

In other words, it may not be the OS at fault here. Make sure you've double-checked all your prompt customisations and autocompletes
> It is very hard doing a full time job and doing a side business, I’m wondering how some folk manage to make it work. I certainly struggle to

Manage expectations.

I earn a comfortable amount of money in $DAYJOB (openstack devops) and I've started building a consulting business on the side. That's amidst other side projects that won't ever earn money.

I make it work by not expecting my business to build quickly. I focus on making my dayjob work, because that's where the reliable money is coming from, and I make sure I have enough time to relax and appreciate life. I work on my business when I have time and energy left over.

One day I may get enough clients that I can start thinking about reversing the priorities, pushing back on the dayjob to make more time for the business. But if that day never comes, I'm still happy: I'm not going to be homeless any time soon, and regardless of what happens, I have a high probability of a good retirement in 15 or 20 years due to investments I've already made.

You must be young. I also used to stress about how I could never get enough done, and beat myself up for not being able to fill every waking moment with something productive. You'll eventually learn that this is the path to burnout. I wonder if it's necessary to burn out first before you learn the lesson ...
Frankly, its fine more often than we may care to admit.

As the parent comment suggested, UI elements are a great candidate for this. Often very similar (how many apps have a menu bar, side bar, etc) and full of boilerplate. And at the rate things change on the front-end, it's often a candidate for frequent re-writes, so code quality and health don't need to be as strict.

It'd be nice if every piece of software ever written was done so by wise experts with hand-crafted libraries, but sometimes it's just a job and just needs to be done.
I'm not sure this has as much to do with paper documentation as with the fact the UK has no unique identifier for it's citizens. In that situation, name changes should be a pain.

Just as much as it's a pain to deal with any other database without primary keys.

Perhaps, rather than saying that older operating systems felt faster, and then getting into the weeds debating that (or quoting cold, hard numbers) we should change our terminology: I’d say that older operating systems felt ‘snappier’, which I think is quite different from ‘faster’.

My opinion on the facts I saw don't agree with your interpretation. No one here on HN cares about it =) so I just drop it.

A related effect is there is a real tendency in online debates to use countries that speak exotic foreign languages as examples. So there is no way of working out what the data actually represents, what the known strengths and weaknesses are or what they are trying to measure. Or what the legal framework is.

To a great extent they already do. Native Mac/iOS apps very rarely exhibit these problems (and many companies producing native Mac apps even advertise this advantage).

I don't think there's much they can do about the electron apps - they held the line a long time on iOS before letting those run in the first place.

I have been thinking about this being poor thing. Isn't it like all of the losing weight advice. Earn more, spend less and save more simple to do it. It is all about money in and money out. If you have more money coming in and less going out you will be rich.

Trivial advice to follow and anyone should be able to do it right?
Totally in the opposite camp, in the sense I think it’s preferable to customize your experience using 3rd party apps and it should be encouraged model by vendor.
I'm the research lead of Anthropic's interpretability team. I've seen some comments like this one, which I worry downplay the importance of @leogao et al's paper due to the similarity of ours. I think these comments are really undervaluing Gao et al's work.

It's not just that this is contemporaneous work (a project like this takes many months at the very least), but also that it introduces a number of novel contributions like TopK activations and new evaluations. It seems very possible that some of these innovations will be very important for this line of work going forward.

More generally, I think it's really unfortunate when we don't value contemporaneous work or replications. Prior to this paper, one could have imagined it being the case that sparse autoencoders worked on Claude due some idiosyncracy, but wouldn't work on other frontier models for some reason. This paper can give us increased confidence that they work broadly, and that in itself is something to celebrate. It gives us a more stable foundation to build on.

I'm personally really grateful to all the authors of this paper for their work pushing sparse autoencoders and mechanistic interpretability forward.

Realistically, many engineers never got hired because of this already. Also they've had a few rounds of layoffs, so probably plenty are fired by now.

Google already was known for their use of automated code-gen long before they invented LLMs so I wouldn't be surprised if they're on the verge of major systems being gen'ed or templated with LLMs.
