I'm not sure. It's because the streets are made of multiple segments ("ways" in OSM terms), which are being counted separately. I think the query would need to join connected segments to get a true number of streets.

Obviously you know your situation best, but I started in a similar job where I was waiting for green lights to turn red, and when they did, I’d forward a ticket on to someone to fix it.

For many, it was a dead end job and they never did anything more.

For me, I found ways to make things better, make people more efficient, built tools to allow people to do more than their skill level previously allowed, etc. Now, at the same company, being promoted up within the same part of the organization, I’m a principal software engineer. It didn’t happen quickly, I’ve been there almost 20 years, but it happened. Working that seemingly mundane job early on gave me a lot of perspective about the business and about what it means to support a product in production. I’m glad I did it, as it helps me think about those things when I’m building new things today.

The Java course (https://java-programming.mooc.fi/) was being updated every year until a couple years ago when they switched to Python. I did it in 2020 and it was certainly a good introduction to programming. I don't know about the new Python edition.

Their web development course is also very good: https://fullstackopen.com/en/

Well, technically, you can construct the microservices preserving type safety. You can have an interface with two implementations

- on the service provider, the implementation provides the actual functionality,

- on the client, the implementation of the interface is just a stub connecting to the actual service provider.

Thus you can sort of provide separation of services as an implementation detail.

However in practice very few projects elect to do this.
*If* such a thing could be done under typical corporate incentives/behavior, then I suspect the “high impact” part would need to be scrapped. Because when something is important to a corporation, it turns its eyes that thing (so to speak), which disrupts the other properties.

Or, “high impact” could be spread over the long term. So, unknown-payoff R&D. It would need to be an “invest and ignore” strategy and require a lot of institutional trust.
This looks awesome! Congrats

> What do US military bases use?

They would use electricity from the grid, why bother generating power specifically for the base? Outsource the capital and maintenance costs to a utility.

Some land-grant universities generate their own power and some industrial sites have their own dedicated hydropower, but a military base would just use the grid.

For critical/backup power needs at the base itself, a combination of UPSes and diesel generators, just like any other commercial or industrial facility. Diesel gensets are an extremely mature, well understood technology that are very reliable and cheap to maintain.
If a bisection takes a day, it would probably take longer to automate than just find it manually. For performance bugs, you may need to look at non-standard metrics or profiling that would otherwise be a one-off and don’t necessarily make sense to automate.

As others in the comments have already mentioned, Studio Six makes very nice Audio Tools (at least on iOS/Mac, not sure if they are also on Android). Their SMAART module is the cheapest way to get access to SMAART tools - which can be a thing in and of themselves. I use them to asses what's going on with live sound I occasionally mix. What's really nice is they calibrate fairly accurately to Apple hardware out of the box. More than accurate enough for my purposes.
Animals don't intend nor even attempt to deceive, unlike humans. They have a goal in mind, and they just do whatever presumably achieves that goal sooner. They are honest even if they seem like they are lying.

Another way to look at it is a computer throwing out wrong information. The computer doesn't care about deception, it's just honestly doing what it was told with what it knows.

Sometimes I wonder if the norm is the world doesn't lie and humans are the major exception. Humans are fucking assholes.
At this point, you can practically predict what OpenAI will announce to the press next. It's the same Skinner/Chalmers routine over-and-over-and-over again.

"Does X look like Y" is always a continum. In test environments, players are judged human with these rates:

(I'm rather surprised by ELIZA beating 3.5, as were the researchers).

Turing's introduction of the test, was a 70% chance of spotting the AI after 5 minutes.

Show HN: Pypalettes –> explore and use 2500 color palettes
Finding a good color palette for a chart is a struggle.
Using the palette in a Matplotlib chart is not easy.

We just created a Python library called pypalettes that references 2500+ color palettes.
You can use any of them with 1 line of code.

We also built an app to efficiently explore all of them and find the perfect match!

There was something like an order of magnitude delcine in the number of teller positions when banks rolled out ATM's. They've been around for so long that most people don't remember when they were uncommon.

But ask yourself this, when did you last go into a bank. I've done a home loan application on a smart phone.

Anyway, stuff is changing, There's always going to be jobs about. People are flexible and can learn things, AI ain't all that.
Ive noticed that too. I think it will lead to an excess of boilerplate and less refactoring to remove boilerplate. I'd consider these things to be at best neutral and maybe net negative.
To be fair a lot of people are not privy to the “correct” way to open a business. You should not list your name on any public facing documents nor should you use your personal address anywhere. It helps to consult a lawyer when starting up.

I always tell people to expect a minimum of $1k/yr to maintain a business and that’s to pay for a registered agent, a virtual office, and a domain and website (I also recommend a CPA). A registered agent exists only to forward legal correspondence directly to the owner. A virtual office handles all of the mail (which includes the junk mail you mention but can be silently processed out using their virtual mailbox service). And a website to provide an easy means of communication (again with spam filters in place)

I never see junk mail and I have started 5 successful businesses over the past 20 years. Spam phone calls is a completely separate unsolved problem, however

It's not as great a gpt4O, but with gemini and 1M tokens (2M now also avaiable) you can dump in a small library of "writing javascript for X" books before asking it to produce code for X. It dramatically improves output.

Not in the UK - the UK is weird in that they have some of the worst gaslighting but also that's where Dr. Jessica Eccles is based and they have a decent Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) medical community https://ldnresearchtrust.org/. While that is starting from a treatment and working backwards doctors who know about LDN and how and why to use it are most likely to know the other things they need to know. I'll send you an email and can probably put you in touch with other UK people in a similar boat.

Exactly this. When I was 17 I worked at a JC Penny store as a stock boy. Every time I approached certain entrances (like the main one that opened into the shopping mall) and other areas of the store my ears were assaulted with a high pitch squeal. Never figured out what it was, nobody else seemed to hear it. I've always had tinnitus, and the frequency always seemed to be the same. In fact, I'm listening to it now.

Thats a fair point. Trust would definitely have to be a requirement for a functional zero-based budget.

Employees would need to know their jobs are secure and the company is just going through a regular process of deciding where to invest. As long as the perception, whether true or not, is that companies are always willing to fire employees to save a buck then no one really has incentives to honestly propose budgets and priorities.
Yes. There are costs to having monoliths. There are also costs to having microservices.

My hypothesis is that in most projects, the problems with monoliths are smaller, better understood and easier to address than the problems with microservices.

There are truly valid cases for microservices. The reality is, however, that most projects are not large enough to qualify to benefit from microservices. They are only large projects because they made a bunch of stupid performance and efficiency mistakes and now they need all this hardware to be able to provide services.

As to your statement that deploying monoliths takes time... that's not really that big of a problem. See, most projects can be engineered to build and deploy quickly. It takes truly large amount of code to make that real challenge.

And you still can use devops tools and best practices to manage monolithic applicaitons and deploy them quickly. The only thing that gets large is the compilation process itself and the size of the binary that is being transferred.

But in my experience it is not out of ordinary for a small microservice functionality that has just couple lines of code to produce image that take gigabytes in space and takes minutes to compile and deliver, so I think the argument is pretty moot.

A lot of investments seem obvious in retrospect, most end up middle-of-the-road, and quite a few end up being gambles that don't pay out. Certainly there are points where both AMD and NVIDIA offered good paydays--and also points where they looked like dogs.

Make enough well-informed and diversified bets over the past couple decades and you've probably done OK in tech investing (and employment) if not necessarily life-changing.

I've applied to jobs from HN that I had to ditch mid-interview. It's genuinely unbelievable how little some founders care about sourcing good talent, and when you have a poor interview routine it signals to experienced candidates that it's time to leave. An AI-powered cartoon interview is the fastest way to make any disciplined employee want to stop working for your business.
The two-fingers-tap for right click works great on the various Apple trackpads. Much better than the same gesture on my expensive Dell Precision.

Yeah, this is the question I always find myself asking after anything like this. Without establishing a definition of "intelligence", anything that follows is meaningless.

And "intelligence" can be defined. People just think of different things when you use the word unless you define it. Here is how I like to define intelligence: the intersection between knowledge and reason. An example of a system that is highly knowledgeable but lacks intelligence due to its inability to reason is Wikipedia. A system that is highly reasonable but lacks intelligence due to its lack of knowledge is a calculator.

It's obvious that language models encode more knowledge than humans do. Even a few GB model that I can download and run on my computer can spit out facts about random things. Way more than any human could. Sometimes they are wrong about facts, but so is any knowledge system, including humans.

An LLMs reasoning capability is a bit less clear cut. When you have any understanding of how LLMs work, it seems like they should have no ability to do novel reasoning. Yet when you try to push them, they are often surprisingly good. I think that people who say the best LLMs have worse than human reasoning capabilities probably overestimate the average adults reasoning capability. Plus it is not hard at all to hook up a language model as a component in a greater intelligence system, by adding other components that specialize in reason. For example an environment to run code in.
Unfortunately, UUID as PK is an extremely common pattern these days, because devs love to believe that they’ll need a distributed DB, and also that you can’t possibly use integers with such a setup. The former is rarely true, the latter is blatantly false.

>This is wildly inaccurate. A huge amount of economics is focussed on profit. For obvious reasons.

As an example there are countless studies looking at the relationship between the minimum wage and employment and off the top of my head I can think of maybe 2 off the top of my head that measure the relationship between the minimum wage and profit.

For obvious reasons. The same reasons.

Sure, but even though an LLM is only a function that "acts" (outputs a word) when called, it could (if it weren't just an LLM!) use that opportunity to act to pursue some curiosity-based line of discussion.

One limiting factor as far as curiosity goes isn't just that an LLM is a passive function, but also that it's just a statistical sequence-to-sequence machine (a transformer) - that's all that exists under the hood. It doesn't have any mechanism for innate traits to influence the generation process. All you could do would be to train that one mechanism it does have to mimic human responses judged to reflect curiosity about specific fine-tuning inputs.
Viam seems promising, especially for cloud connected stuff.
You're blaming Apple for Intel's incompetence at low-power CPUs?
Internal Server Error 34
The entire premise that you need an MMU is about invalid memory accesses. Safe rust does much the same job with much finer grain and at compile time not runtime where dealing with page faults can lead to some strange loops.

No need for IPC or syscall marshalling when you can simply do function calls without the hassles of MMU permissioning.

Like why is a microkernel needed today for this sort of thing, if its purely for security of memory then... well there's other ways of solving that problem completely outside of hardware memory protection schemes at this point in my mind.

We're so steadfastly stuck in this mindset of needing memory protection and pointer protection (CHERI) because of the insanity that C and its like bring to the table. Restricting the software to safe rust does much the same job. Memory is protected, lifetimes are protected, and better still data races are protected.

E.g. see rtic-rs and how tasks are written. Without unsafe, no memory is accessible outside what is given explicitly to the task. And checking for unsafe rust can be done in an automated fashion at compile time.

Or maybe I'm totally wrong which is quite possible!

I suspect a thread like this on HN will harbour lots of downvotes.

Two points of mention:

1) Whatever this is, it’s small potatoes. The politicians jump on the little things like JT spending an extra $10k here or there. Absolute peanuts, so they make mountains out of mole hills. I have no idea why. Maybe you do.

2) there absolutely is high level play of corruption and political games. To writ, the tidal wave of RE pumping was not accidental, and people claiming so are among themselves passing the profits playing dumb. The pandemic has revealed a tiny part of the corruption-through-nepotism. I say tiny, but the contracts were to the tune of billions.

Unfortunately there isn’t a silver lining here. Again, I suspect it’ll be another thread of people arguing past each other. If you want more of that, you’re more than welcome to visit r/canada or something.
I think the frustration comes around the constraints. It’s great for reminders and timers, and those meaningfully improve my life. It sometimes can successfully make a call. It interrupts me in the most obnoxious way at least once a week.

Buffett has said times and times again that he doesn't give two damns and never holds any such "regret moments".

He only swings at business opportunities he understands in his circle of competence. He understands logistics, banking, insurance and the strength of some brand moats, so that's where he puts his money in.

The only tech stock he and Munger said they missed was Google, because BH used Google's ads for years and years and could see how effective it was for them, and how much money it made Google.

So they admit there they could've swung, as it was in the circle of competence to analyse Google's business and numbers and yet they didn't.

But Nvidia? He couldn't care less. Or do you expect him to regret missing Cisco and Intel too because they became the highest market cap companies in the world in few years on top of internet hype.

Academic publishing is similar. The impact factor and 'prestige' of the journal matters to your University, your peers, your grants panel, and yourself. However this results in 2 scenarios, when you publish in a top tier journal, a) the journal charges you a small fee and also pay-walls your work so your reach is lessened, then actively polices you sharing YOUR work without permission b) the journal charges an exorbitant fee (Nature wants $11,000 USD) for open-access publishing that allows wider distribution (but still has stipulations in some cases).

HOWEVER, some editorial boards of big for-profit journals have flipped the table and started their own not-for-profit journals with blackjack and hookers. The big one in my field was NeuroImage board creating Imaging Neuroscience - with a public letter to the owners (Elsevier if I'm not mistaken) calling out the bullshit publishing fees.

> China started decoupling first by blocking out most foreign companies from their domestic market.

That's exactly the opposite of what China has been doing over the last 40 years. The history of China over the last few decades is one of massive economic opening to the outside world.

> Besides automobiles, most companies are still blocked from entering China’s domestic market.

You should just travel to China to see how wrong you are about this. Foreign companies are everywhere in China. Walk into any Chinese mall and then tell me, with a straight face, that foreign companies are banned.

> Companies still need domestic partners.
