His take seemed faulty immediately after the keynote, and it seems sillier the more that's reported about the no cash OpenAI deal.

OpenAI offered to Apple the same thing they offer to the public for free, chat with chatGPT 4o, in exchange for Apple mentioning them in a keynote and optionally linking to them, apparently in hopes of getting signups. They're reportedly just first of many LLM providers to handle what Apple calls "world knowledge" requests that "Apple Intelligence" doesn't want to handle, and handoff is disabled by default, requires additional user approval before each and every proxied handoff to OpenAI. Requests come from random Akamai/Cloudflare addresses (rather than user IPs), and provide no additional context info beyond the bare question itself, which openAI is contractually required not to use or store outside of the immediate reply. These are the sort of requests Siri presently answers unhelpfully with Google search results and a "here's what I found on the web." OpenAI swaps in for Google.

It's also interesting that Apple seems to be using a relatively minor deal, that's on par with the defunct ancient Twitter integration into the share sheet, to imply they're on top of all things AI and not playing catch up, but at the same time, keeping it arms length so they're insulated from chatGPT's (and eventually Gemini's) inevitable embarrassing hallucinations.
Ask HN: How can I sleep more and deeper?
I'm always kinda tired. I wake up at 4h30, or 5h30, instead of 7am... not sure why. Not sleepy but tired. Never "rested". Always anxious about work (its not that important). Wanting the first cup of coffee.

At what point would I try going to a psychiatrist to get some pills that make me sleep for 9 hours at a time to get "out of this loop"?

Btw I'm not very overweight (230lbs @ 6"2) and do some exercise daily.

Yeah, that reasoning would have crazy implications. No one's allowed to get surgery anymore because you might catch MRSA while you're recovering in the hospital afterwards... no medication because you might have a side effect or allergic reaction....
I was the Minecraft server admin of my high school, csgo was big in college, I know how it is. Not referring to public matches like CoD. Just cause we were unaliving mobs and building stuff together doesn't mean we were socializing.
exactly. The potential performance regression of guards is exactly why the elixir typechecker doesn't insert them. I guess I hadn't made that point clear in my comment. IIRC The elixir guides talks about excessive typechecking being a code smell.
I almost definitely can't, and would love to hear it, but I'm not giving one red cent to fucking crypto grifters.
Why would anyone willing trade 2 12 minute drives to and from somewhere, anytime you want, immediately air conditioned, in the privacy and comfort of your own vehicle, with 2 32 minute dirty bus commutes that you have to plan in advance, walk to in the heat, and ride with other people-some of which are homeless.

What a stupid idea.
> ... the problem with running debian is that fixes are often not backported, specifically for things end users will care about, like libre office

I don't disagree completely with your general sentiment, but the latest version of Libreoffice is available today in Bookworm backports.
ah, so the main cost seems to be the human-part that's hard to automatize, not really the structure/framing etc..?
> Teens have literally no use for phones except for communication/socialization.

What do you think they're supposed to be using them for if not that? Socialization is the point. I was every bit the teenage girl annoyingly on her phone constantly but I was constantly talking to my friends / boyfriend.

So much of being a teenager is being dragged places you don't want to go and being forced to be around adults you don't care about talking about insurance or escrow or whatever. But online was a place that was mine, where my friends were.
Counterintuitively, but very logically as the market just compensates when you think about it, the higher the taxes the higher the pay gap.

We can keep bikeshedding, sure.

I don’t think people are dumb, just that the vast majority of people dont have knowledge of statistics and AI.

“Random” isn’t good either. Obviously the text gpt and other LLMs generate isn’t random.

Statistical works too, sure.
The candidates are chosen by donors.
That's also kind of a bad example, because it's using a language with dogshit error handling. In a language like Rust, you'd just do e.g. `let sibling = new_node(...)?;`, and you wouldn't need the extra functions. I'd dislike having to go off and find both `needSiblingNode` and `pointToNewAddress` just to figure out what a few lines of code mean.
I posted because the entire thing is so fascinating from distribution, legal rights, to the unimaginable chain of custody/ownership (which included the Department of Justice who auctioned it to the current owner).

In addition to what you quoted it is said it was also inspired by musical patronage in the Renaissance. I’m sure there is some truth to all of the above but also just marketing.

It originally sold at auction for $2M, and I would imagine/hope they could have made multiples that through a standard release.
wccftech is an untrustworthy source.
It has allowed that for a long, long time.

My old Sirius portable receiver sounded like garbage despite the marketing material saying "Crystal Clear". My 2006 Infiniti Sirius receiver didn't sound any better despite being a massive space heater in the trunk. The later cars I've used it in sound good, at least good enough to sound as clear as FM radio or even HD radio. I think some of the channels are still in lower bitrates like the news channels for example, they've always sounded bad. There's something I've read about SiriusXM using terrestrial transmitters which may improve the signal whereas the satellite link may be of lower bandwidth.
Not exactly related to disabled people, but a though crossed my mind on how cluttered F1 pilot wheels are with buttons, I imagined some F1 Engineer already thinking on how feature dense these pads can get and how to integrate them into races.

Not related, I know.
Ah, so it might not really save that much time as people still have to setup forms and go/in/out.

Oil is what matters less here.
The point is that the ability of the US to refinance its debt and support the massive consumption levels of the American people through cheap imports and massive trade deficits rely on a healthy global demand for the USD.

The Us is now a massive producer of oil, but it is not a massive net exporter of it, because it consumes a lot. So, when the big net exporters of oil decide to accept other things in payment in lieu of the USD it inevitably has a depressing effect on the global demand for the dollar.
But this is missing the issue entirely. Your spammy posts would be removed because nobody here wants to see them if they even could after the deluge of downvotes. What is happening in Europe is that people are posting things that users do want to see, but the government doesn't want people to see it.
Yeah, I love Borges but this was kind of a stretch. There are better Borges stories that would fit the chaos theme better too. “The Lottery in Babylon” might work as it explores how much chance influences our lives.
I know I am not the first person to say this, but those are the types of things that make me leave a group chat.

Then again I don't even "good morning" my partner unless maybe if it's a big day for either one of us, so I may just be way way outside the intended target audience for this type of group chat.
Considerable portion of that was early ARPANET work often involving somewhat lacking access to hardware, so I'm it's formative ages internet had a lot of directly attaching teletypes to network ports.

Also one can't forget about TIPs, which provided "phone modem to telnet-like" bridge service in ARPANET.

Another part was how text was the one thing that people had standardise enough between different computers. FTP's ASCII and binary modes aren't about love conversion for Unix, but because "binary" meant totally different things on different hosts (could be 8bit octets, could be 28bit words, could be 36bit words, could be 60 bit, before internet fully settled down there were 40 bit hosts too).

Also people are scared of compilers.

All of that led to cultural bias towards textual protocols

> Of the deleted comments examined across platforms and countries, between 87.5% and 99.7%, depending on the sample, were legally permissible.

Even of the content that’s not “legally permissible,” it’s worth questioning what exactly is not permitted. It was mere months ago that the EU threatened YouTube for hosting “incitement to violence or propaganda for terrorist organizations”—a lot of which was actual real footage of massacres that is valuable and should not be suppressed in a free society, yet keeps getting taken down from platform after platform due to pressure from regulators. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37884292

This is a common practice in cultures that don’t believe in free speech according to the American standard. For example, videos of the Christchurch mosque shootings were banned by the New Zealand Chief Censor (yes, that’s a real title—https://www.classificationoffice.govt.nz/news/news-items/res...). Sharing the video can get you arrested. https://gizmodo.com/18-year-old-arrested-in-new-zealand-for-...

Surely it’s distasteful to keep these sordid videos available to and viewable by the general public, but when the government prohibits citizens from forming their opinions from stark video of real events, it drastically empowers inflammatory rhetoric on social media—more legally permissible according to their standards—to influence people’s opinions instead. That leaves society as a whole worse off.

Now with 5 leaks, at what point does it make sense to jettison the Starliner and get something else on the pad, something more reliable. Like SpaceX?
The Fight Against Ticketmaster
Currently GPT-4o is already free for average amounts of usage. I assume this mirrors the situation with GPT-3.5 being free in ChatGPT a few months before GPT-4 launched. So I assume GPT-5 is fairly close now, and it will very likely not be available for free for anyone, including Apple users.
> sanding the cooking surface smooth would produce similar results

Your instinct is a good one - I tried this with a 12" Lodge skillet, working my way up to 220 grit with an orbital sander, and it instantly became my favorite pan.
If we are going to count energy that is delivered to the payload in a non-heat form that eventually becomes heat then yes, 100% of an ICE's energy from gas goes into heat--but so does 100% of an EV's energy or a bicycle's energy.

The difference between an ICE and an EV with similar sizes and shapes as far as heat goes is that although all the energy from both eventually ends up as heat the EV produces less unnecessary heat. To move the payload a given distance the ICE will use about 4 times as much energy. Only 1/4 of the energy from the gasoline goes toward accomplishing the job of the vehicle. The other 3/4 is waste heat.
If the comments were removed due to being presumably being illegal (rather than due to company determining they simply don't want that kind of speech, e.g. spam) wouldn't it be prudent for the platforms to report all instances to the local police after removing the comment? If the police determines to not continue with the investigation then the speech must be legal and thus could be restored and they can adjust their moderation accordingly.
What an appalling, broken social life you want to condemn children to.

I grew up before smartphones and I spoke to people around my own age. I arranged my own travel without parents checking in on me. Bullying assholes didn't need groups to amplify their message which was a good thing.

How are things better now exactly?
> As capabilities are currently being developed in exponential time

What do you mean? It doesn't seem exponential to me, exponential would mean things happen faster and faster, but the capabilities seem to develop slower and slower.

Or do you mean a negative exponential?
How is that specific to React? And who would use webapp technology for a website?
I'm fine with it as long there's data to backup the claim.

What we shouldn't do is claim that a certain tea is able to cure something like "long covid" when 1) it ranges from being tired to brain damage and 2) is not backed up by anything. And I'd say the same if it was some random drug being recommended.
It's important to consider though that it isn't all about the USA's energy imports. The petrodollar is also about making sure the dollar remains the world's reserve currency.

The fact that China, Korea or India for example have to buy oil in USD rather than in Saudi Riyal or their local currencies, helps the USD.

I also want to point out "petrodollar" isn't a fringe topic. It wasn't when it was first coined, and even if it's spoken-of little nowadays, that's not a measure of its importance. Few people spoke about CDOs before the 2008 crisis. They were about to play a central role in what was to unfold, but people just weren't paying attention to them.

Again, I'm not saying the USD's dominance is about to end tomorrow. I'm just saying it's an error to dismiss this event as unimportant, in this case on the basis that the USA doesn't import as much energy, or that nobody is talking about the petrodollar. It might not be that important, or it might turn out to be. If we do see effects though, I'd expect them to be in the long-term anyway. Geopolitics are slow. The global economy doesn't change course in a day or a year.

In terms of total petroleum products (including crude, gasoline, and diesel) the US has become a net exporter in the last few years.

> In 2020, the United States became a net exporter of petroleum for the first time since at least 1949. In 2022, total petroleum exports were about 9.52 million barrels per day (b/d) and total petroleum imports were about 8.33 million b/d, making the United States an annual net total petroleum exporter for the third year in a row.

Yup, I agree. Kids need to be able to talk with friends. Especially over summer when they cant always see them in person at school.
I have zero issues with phones, its just the social media apps I am against.

My kids have a Facetime video chat they all jump on while they game so they can see each other and talk, pretty great actually.
That question sounds like it’s coming from ChatGPT. Next question it might ask is where Miss Connor is living …
So I was one of the first generation to have access to instant messaging when I was less than 11. (I'm pushing 40)

I am despite what the media says, a digital native.

that being said, I don't think kids should be on social media. By that I mean instagram/tiktok/snapchat

I have been talking to my kids (10/7) about "the internet". The normal stuff: no real names, no photos, no giving away details to anyone. They have a shared iPad, but it has time limits, and it stays in the living room.

and as an adult leader for a "uniformed organisation" for kids, one of the badges is about staying safe online. Some of the shit that I hear from them leaves me a bit worried. Roblox is a fucking nest of paedophiles. Instgram isn't a place for kids, and neither is youtube.

But, the biggest issue, apart from google and facebook not having any commercial incentive to stop kids from using their stuff: is parents not talking to their kids to find out whats happening.

Who are they talking to?

How long are they spending online?

What are they watching?

You as a parent have to be involved. You can't let your kid wander alone on the internet. You need to set barriers.

You don't need to be a helicopter, but you do need to take an interest.

You also need to have a strong fucking password to stop the kids getting round the parental controls.
Not really, at least for B2B stuff.

I have access to a bunch of big marketing lists and there are always at least some Phonewords in there. The only big lists without them are the ones collected by forms that only allowed digits in the phone field.

Also on a personal level I have a "joke" number of (404)myname that I put into contact forms that allow it. Developers I talk to seem to have an easy time remembering my # because of the joke.
This sounds in line with big law and big finance. Those are exactly the type of people who have flooded into tech over the last decade. It shouldn’t be surprising that compensation structures mirror those industries.
There is no hidden information and turns are sequentially. This means both players have full access to all information, and that implies there must be a single "best" move. If the board is at a certain state and one player is to play next, the strategy of the opponent is irrelevant for determining the optimal move.

Proof:

Suppose that it is possible that different strategies exist that outperform each other. Lets consider the case that there are three "optimal" strategies that counter each other, call them Rock Paper and Scissors. Since these are the three "optimal" strategies, both players know the exact move produced by these strategies. The first important part to note is that there is no cost to changing strategy during the game. If an opponent has one fixed strategy, say Rock, the "optimal" strategy is to change your strategy to Paper. Since you have full information on the state of the board, you do not have to guess the strategy of the opponent, because there is no hidden information. Now you could consider the opponent strategy to be hidden information, but this doesn't hold for the following reason: If knowing the opponent strategy would alter your choice of move (by for example changing to Rock that specifically counters his hidden Scissors), the opponent can freely change to Paper after you made your move, because he can see that you changed to Rock before making his next move. If it was impossible for the opponent to tell that you changed your strategy, that implies that each strategy produces the same board state, and that implies the strategies are identical.
let P = the vector p - S(-p)

let Q dot P = 0 which means Q is perpendicular to P

to choose between R = Q or -Q you want R dot (-p) > 0 because -p points from the line containing p and S(-p) toward the origin so you can just dot product again

Saturday might have voluntary work, then lunch in restaurant, take kid to some bigger park and drink mate outside and see the sunset. Sunday usually church then lunch at my mothers house. Missing some friends.

If I was single I'd probably go to the movies at least once a week.
It's fair to say that I introduced the idea of "race" into this conversation. That wasn't a fair assumption for me to make. The only thing it says about me, however, is that I've seen a lot of anti immigration arguments made that were actually just people being racist.

That said, and to be perfectly clear - I'm not trying to find a reason to argue with you. I'm trying to understand what it means to "spend $800k on US health care as a Canadian."

Normally I'd shrug and move on at this point, but frankly, it's seems a bit crazy to suggest that you, a Canadian, spent $800k on US health care because of immigration. You were the one who spent the money. Why not make it crystal clear how and why that happened?
For context, 3D printing rocket parts is incredibly common, even student teams often use printed nozzles and such. The linked article is about printing a whole engine as a single piece, which is a different beast.
> This left me wondering if there is enough demand for smaller social networks with very limited visibility that can foster rich and insightful discussions (although this sounds like forums from the nineties). And if it's possible to keep the sales people away, or at least invite-only.

You can't keep sales people a.k.a phonies away it will always happen. Every underground subculture gets appropriated as soon as even one of these people shows up.

For example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_punk_subculture

Imagine you run into Patti Smith and her friends in the 70s, if you're lame you won't be staying long. In fact you might get punched in the face. There is proper gatekeeping.

Once the scene grows even a little there's money to be made. A different sort shows up who understands the culture and likes the music OK but don't truly give a fuck it is about selling t-shirts and bootlegs for them. And/Or getting laid.

They'll start promoting it to grow it bigger and make more money. That's when the real sharks show up and the original members start leaving. Later still normies shop your style at the mall with no idea what any of it means or where it came from.

Sadly, can't punch people in the face over the internet. Even worse everything is all about forced inclusivity now.

This ain't a technological problem.
Yeah I only played games as well. They teach you how to solve problems. I am grateful for this.
I'm Mexican and have lived here all my 30 years of life on the Northeast side. You and your family will be safe. Cartels avoid messing with foreigners—too much heat. Look up Kiki Camarena. They (Cartels) are never as bad in the eyes of foreigners.

The low-status Mexicans working extraordinarily hard to make a living in the rural areas of Mexico have it bad, yes. They're usually exposed to minor crimes such as assaults.

But the biggest issue in Mexico is that you can't stand out. Middle, upper-middle, and high-class individuals (before having enough money to afford bodyguards) try to keep a low profile. There is a real risk that someone may want to kidnap you for as low as 25k USD. Even if you want to pay the ransom, something can go south and end badly. Crimes that are catastrophic if they happen to you.

You can't really have an apples-to-apples comparison of how safe something is because it is context-dependent. I may feel "safer" in South Chicago compared to an American, as I don't quite grasp how or why it is unsafe.

I am very curious of this line of thinking. Should we just destroy all our weapons and assume Russian supremacy so we can live?

What is the endgame here? It's not like we started the war? If anything we, the Europeans naively made ourselves Russia-dependent on energy assuming that having a win-win deal with Russia will eliminate any conflicts.

>Now all of a sudden people believe ukraine can destroy russia?

I don't think that anyone claims that this is the goal of Ukraine or the west. This war ends immediately as soon as Russian troops leave Ukraine. Why should it end with Russian troops taking all Ukraine?
