a) That is completely irrelevant. You're making assertions about those cooks skill level and it's just utterly false.

b) Most fine dining restaurants use EVERYTHING they get. The roots from the herbs that get trimmed, the bones and scrap from the meat, the stale bread-- all have a purpose. Do you expect them to dye some clothes with the onion skins or save their burnt flatbread? Learning how to do that is a huge part of what you learn in a classical cooking education. You want to tackle food waste, look at distributors, grocery stores, cafeterias, and caterers, in that order.

c) Those restaurants are selling a luxury product. In terms of economical efficiency, going to a diner doesn't hold a candle to eating rice and beans at home. Are you fundamentally against luxury products? Because your criticism applies to every handmade luxury product in existence. High-volume low-effort products will always be more economical. That doesn't mean they're more legitimate than better products. Not by a long shot.

You can easily turn off Ai under settings. I have deep slept most unused apps. And set thr processing speed to optimized. Battery is going pretty solid, lasts a full day at 85% charge.

Also try resetting app settings. if something is draining in the background, that could help.
Why does something need to be a "fundamental right" to be worth protecting? Huge swathes of the population have been using operating systems on personal computers mostly the same for thirty years. How does it benefit society for one or two companies to build a moat then go to the casino and bet the entire industry on black?

Microsoft isn't Uber. Their moat is decades of work on kernels, drivers and backwards compatibility that can't be replicated overnight by a competitor. If they self-immolate to chase some idiotic AI/cloud fad, that does a large amount of real economic damage.

I don't even know if I want any regulations in the tech industry, especially after all the e2e encryption bullshit everyone (especially my country's government) is trying to pull. But if I did, this would be right at the top of the list for risk/reward. If cloud sync and AI are so good then sell cloud sync and AI, don't risk established markets to try and flog it off on people that don't want it with dark patterns.
Is there a reason to prefer `while read; ...;done` over find's -exec or piping into xargs?
I work in SEO - this is a total and complete waste of time. Domain authority is one of thousands of ranking signals, and within that the nature of a backlink is one that Google scrutinises deeply.

Grabbing a bunch of free links from sites that hand them out like candy is going to barely move the needle in the best case scenario, and do nothing in the worst case.

And then we have the paid links. It's against Google's quality guidelines to sell links that pass pagerank. Any links that are created as part of any kind of compensation deal like a payment or trade should be nofollowed or better yet marked as sponsored.

Google then determines if any authority should flow between such sites, but in 99% of cases the answer is 'no'.

Definitely do it this way if you want to stick to the pre-filtered version (I recommend the cousin comment, filter inside the loop). GP's version is buggy in the same way as the post misunderstands, particularly with files that somehow got newlines in the filename (xargs is newline-delimited by default).

If for some reason you do need the "find | xargs" combo (maybe for concurrency), you can get it to work with "find -print0" and "xargs -0". Nulls can't be in filenames so a null-delimited list should work.

When you make something more available/cheaper, overall usage often goes up.

Overall energy use is an important metric regardless of energy per task.

Airplanes are WAY more efficient per passenger than they were in the past, but it's still valid to express concern over the energy usage and pollutants of air travel with so many more routes being flown.
Soon the EU will charge parents for giving their children undue advantages as well.

In all seriousness - giving yourself an advantage is obviously what all companies want to do.

Why doesn’t the EU just, for each company, say exactly what they want? I honestly don’t understand the EU - they don’t want any company to do anything to have an advantage compared to their competitors?

Seems like an exercise in mediocrity. I guess par for the course given all of the EUs top companies were all started last century. Clearly out of touch.

Edit: wow the top 15 EU companies by revenue are utilities or auto.

The claim about moving closer to brain-like efficiency conveniently omits how that model compares to modern LLMs. You can put together a toy LLM that is much smaller and more efficient than ChatGPT but isn’t as useful and call it “more efficient”, but that’s not useful in practice.
It's unfortunate, and I mean this genuinely here, in a sympathetic way, that you felt afoul of the common error that people who checked in with Linux 6 or more years ago make: assuming that Ubuntu is still the best and easiest to use distribution. Unfortunately, it really isn't anymore — the way they are pushing snaps (including forcing you to install snaps instead of regular packages even if you use the regular package manager) is really unfortunate because of how fucked snaps are to use, not to mention the fact that snaps are hardcoded to only be able to install from the proprietary closed source snap repository Canonical runs, and that store is full of crypto scams. Plus, in general, desktop PC Ubuntu has been getting buggier and more unreliable over time as Canonical switches their focus to the server. Honestly, if there was one misconception about Linux that I could erase with a snap of my fingers from all potential users minds, it would be that they should start with Ubuntu.

IMO Debian is a pretty good choice if you have hardware that's about 2 to 4 years old or more and don't really care about getting the latest driver updates or advances in the Linux ecosystem, so you should have a better experience there, but if it starts to frustrate you that it takes years for huge fixes and advancements to make their way to you, I really enjoy Fedora. :-)

Also, you mentioned two of the major alternative application packaging formats, snap and appimage, but have you heard of our Lord and savior Flatpak? :p It has all of the benefits of snaps (namely sandboxing, consistent environments and packaging dependencies along with applications, updates directly from upstream, distribution agnostic packaging, and automatic integration with your desktop environment) but none of the downsides (namely far better desktop environment integration thanks to portals and much much faster startup times and no perf impact during runtime unlike snaps). A lot of people talk down about them but I think that's mostly FUD.
Show HN: Web front end for Task Warrior
Hey Hacker News!

After looking for a good solution for task management, I ended up on Task Warrior, though it took me a while to get used to it, now It's my core task management tool (besides my pen and paper)

As someone with ADHD, the issue was, I need the tasks visible, and normally it isn't visible, so I used VIT, even though it checks a lot of boxes for me, it felt slow. So I decided to make my own (besides many of my other side projects, that are waiting to be done). But this time, I pushed myself to get a minimal viable product out.

My key targets were,

* display my task information, as many as possible, without being an eyesore

* keyboard shortcuts

* responsive

I think the current version, check these boxes, at least for me. There's a lot to done, but I think it's kinda usable.

It's still heavily a work in progress, so don't kill me! Contributions are welcome (sorry for the not so clean code)

As someone who sole earning comes from hourly projects, It's difficult for me to allocate enough time for large personal projects. So I may not be responsive initially, but will try my best to reply

With all the hype around using AI to improve developer efficiency, I haven't met anyone who is actually using AI to make a meaningful contribution to their developer productivity, quality of life, etc...

That said I'm sure there are people out there doing it. So I'm curious if there are members of this community that are using AI successfully in their org. What specifically are you using it for? What models/providers are you using?

Until everyone ends up getting a free Teams add-on, Zoom is driven out of business, and then Teams becomes a $19.99 a month per user service.

If a new competitor appears, the price drops again until they are driven away, then goes back up.

So initially it might be great for consumers because there is competition and there are choices. But it’s heading in the direction where consumers will be harmed.

> "without ever having a job"

It's not entirely different from all the successful artists who are living lavish lifestyles (for example many musicians are complete car nuts and own insane cars collection [1]) but sing songs criticizing "money" (even though they have plenty) or criticizing "wall street" (even though most of their savings, in addition to cars and real estate, are at their broker).

I have nothing against money or wealth.

But the irony of a musician or a band criticizing money while flying private is not lost on me.

[1] as an example of such musicians (but not that they necessarily did criticize money), Miles Davis used to run vs Herbie Hancock in the streets in a "Ferrari vs AC Cobra" style. And I love that.
The separate architecture put it over the edge for me, personally. I’m barely competent at C (especially back then) and may have been able to just manage had it been on native arch.

It did force me to get decent with bitshifts, which is always a useful skill. I found this [0] article about doing so with the 68000, and adapted it.

I face the same problem with about 70%-80% of my clients. And there are 2 reasons:
a) they really do not know how their business runs - maybe some parts but never the whole "machine"
b) they do not know how to properly express their thoughts - it is a combination of art and skill but it can definitely be learned to a certain degree either at school or later by self-education

all you can really do is not to use their email and chat services online i suppose. good luck doing anything about it if your workplace relies on Active Directory.

> The vast majority of hedge fund clients are high net worth individuals, with very few pension clients for the typical hedge fund.

That is very, very wrong. HNW have to small tickets to be interesting for most hedge funds, where the minimum ticket size is around $10M. The KYC is also much more complicated for invividuals, risk profiles are generally not aligned, and overall most individuals are not sophisticated enough to be a good fit as client. I say that after close to 20 years in the HF industry, and 2 partners positions...

I would estimate the ratio to be 95/5 for institutional/individual.

> Think about it for a second. There are a very few finite number of pension funds and a relatively huge number of high networth clients.

There is actually a a really large pool of pension funds, funds of funds, and overall institutional investors out there. Basically most schools have endowments funds, every groupment of companies will have a fund for their employees, there's all the insurance companies, the state / countries pension funds, all the various banks and wealth managers, etc.

> Hege fund clients are almost all high net worth individuals who are very capable of making their own financial decisions

Definitely not. Most HF have specific risk profiles and/or characteristics, that are not suited for individuals. Most HNW go to CTAs instead which are much easier to understand and advertise.
You had me till your thesis.

"Push an agenda"?

If they inserted a couple paragraphs saying "we estimate about 200M users a day, etc. etc.", would that add or detract from the article?

It's not relevant how they derived the number when you're reading, you only need an order of magnitude estimate, rest is distraction.
Not only do I agree with you, I actually think you have sugarcoated it.
You’re correct. I am not an expert on anti trust, but I do see that the EU has missed the boat on every new industry in the 21st century compared to the USA.

We will see in 100 years if regulation was the right move or not.

As for education - I doubt all public education in the EU is equivalent, or tutoring is banned, or additional resources, etc.
What do you mean by "making up the rules as they go"? Microsoft was found in breach of the Article 102 of the Treaty on the functioning of european union, which was last modified in 2007, and the article it infringed on abuse of dominant position was ratified in 2003. Furthermore, two other companies (one of which is american) complained to the european commission about Teams and only then an investigation was started
"
For example, a user might begin with a collection of thousands or even millions of books and PDFs, turn on some filters for specific features like “mention of geopolitical conflict” and “escalating rhetoric”, then quickly zoom in to the highlighted parts to find relevant passages and paragraphs. Compared to a conventional search that flattens all the detail into a single sorted list of a few dozen items, a heatmap lets the user see detail without getting lost in it.
"

This already exists in a few Ask your PDF tools, and I haven't found it useful.

The problem in text is not discoverability. Order just matters too much in text. Just like how plucking exact match search results is about as useful as semantic search for 99% of use cases, the context matters. You either have something you want or you don't. The issue with semantic matching and trying to display or use that information is that you end up with a lot of blur and would be better of feeding such information to a GPT model to summarize, or simply using a GPT model initially, to construct something more useful for you to work with. Or in other words - semantic comparisons and grouping of content creates too much bloat compared to the reasoning currently possible by GPT models, and there is no solution to this here.
As much as there is a deluge of brainrot, some fairly well-spoken experts do exist on the platform and have disseminated more up-to-date information about their specialty, so I'm inclined to agree.
firstly, very unlikely that zerodium are supplying bugs they use (could be internally developed, or developed by a more trusted domestic defence contractor).

What about if the targets are like Osama Bin Laden's (* INSERT MORE MODERN TERRORIST) family (I have no idea who they are targeting).

Are you meant to have some dude speak arabic and become close friends with the top terorist leaders? Like how do you propose that even work? Would HUMINT actually work in those cases?

I think it's a nice idea for everyone to work on fixing the vulnerabilities, I don't think that will scale with whatever organisations mandate to stop terrorism or whatever.

Sorry just an aside. This is the funniest way to figure out its a Louis Rossman Video without checking the link first.
In the second example, the constant is propagated across expression/statement boundaries. It is likely, that this happened on IR level, rather than on the AST level.

I'd imagine the generic case becomes a non-trivial problem if you don't want to produce fluke/useless diagnostic messages.

The compiler might already be several optimization passes in at this point, variables long since replaced by chained SSA registers, when it suddenly discovers that an IR instructions produces UD. This itself might end up being eliminated in a subsequent pass or entirely depend on a condition you can't statically determine. In the general case, by the point you definitely know, there might not be enough information left to reasonably map this back to a specific point in the input code, or produce useful output why the problem happens here.
Just wait. There are 1000x if not x1B ants in the world than bears, ants rule the world in this context. It's just a matter of time until any bear succumbs to ants' rules.

And for the record, Putin is no bear, he's a yet another street coward who can only bully the weaker ones. If ICC means shit and he's such a bear, why doesn't he travel to any country which adheres to ICC rulling? A coward murderer and he knows it, that's why.
I live a life of essentially aimless reflection, and while I can appreciate it, I can tell you that it can also be too much - as the sibling comment alludes, you must be getting something out of (work, kids, household, ...), because I can attest that while I agree with you that work isn't really optional in an industrial society if you want a few modern amenities, the other parts of that set are.
They do cover that in the article:

> Although they reduced the number of operations, the researchers were able to maintain the performance of the neural network by introducing time-based computation in the training of the model. This enables the network to have a “memory” of the important information it processes, enhancing performance. This technique paid off — the researchers compared their model to Meta’s state-of-the-art algorithm called Llama, and were able to achieve the same performance, even at a scale of billions of model parameters.
I have to disagree with anyone that thinks it is "barely less bad".

I mean we make countless bad decisions as humans, many of them rash last minute decisions in a time of desperation.

Given the ease of just making an account and talking to someone vs actually going through with something I feel like just being on a platform like this is villainizing what could have been a moment of weakness. But that doesn't mean that you would have gone through with it.

I would also put out there that there may be a decent subset of people that just the idea that someone might be into them without needing to actually do anything beyond that, is enough.

I fully acknowledge that there is a lot of nuance to this, but I would hope that as a society we could acknowledge a huge difference between a bit of fantasy/role playing and actually going through with something.
you just answered your own question, at least for gaming. the paid userbase for proton-based gaming needs to grow large enough to be taken seriously before most people can migrate.
