I'm looking for some feedback on a new tool I've been working on: Tabulator AI, an AI-powered CSV generator designed to streamline your content creation process. While developing Tablesmith, I noticed the manual setup of columns and prompts was both tedious and uninspiring. This led me to create a more user-friendly solution: Tabulator AI.

Tabulator AI generates creative and detailed tables from a single prompt, making it easier than ever to produce engaging content for your projects. For instance, I recently used ChatGPT to craft a steampunk story and then transformed parts of it into demo tables complete with text and images. You can check these demos out on the homepage.

All the demo tables on the homepage are pre-generated, but you can experience the tool firsthand with this real table: https://tabulator.ai/tables/01904824-38b1-7140-b52b-23237ebc.... Simply create an account to start generating your own tables, complete with images if you specify that in your prompt.
It's ultimately a lack of "class". The scenario you're describing requires that the wealthy maintain a set of social virtues that are more important than money. One of those virtues must then be that greed is seen as very low class. It's the stereotypical depiction of new vs old money. It does exist in the US, but it's mainly in certain industries and the uber wealthy are generally shunned / excluded because to be focused on the pursuit of money is taboo. It's literally the primary differentiator, "I'm so rich we don't care about money." Even though they are nowhere near as rich as billionaires. To be seen as concerned about making money shows a lack of class and even if you have billions of dollars from a social standpoint your no different than any random poor person working paycheck to paycheck.

So that investment class certainly is out there, but it's not really in places like California, New York, Florida etc. Those areas and the industries spawned in them are dominated by the profit obsessed social pariahs.

Of course money and investments are a major aspect but it's never about how much money you can make, all the pursuits are profitable, but it's about how much importance and control they will generate.

Most Tech, Crypto, AI, anything like that, if it gets shut down tomorrow, the impacts are minimal and easily mitigated. People involved lose money, but everyone else carries on, possibly somewhat inconvenienced. If a regional cold storage facility, railroad, pipeline, quarry, or container yard decides to shut down you have real impacts that start to get serious quickly.
Honest question, yq pretty much does this, are you solving for something yq doesn't?
Ted was a domestic terrorist mailing bombs across the country, how is it selfish to put that above "how much it hurt her husband"? What is a non-reckless way of pushing your husband to report an insane terrorist actively plotting to bomb more people?
Haha I stopped reading after "the FTC only works.."

The system is part of the problem not part of the solution.
I also use aichat. For some reason (well, I know the reason, it's shell quoting) I don't like passing prompts in via command line, so having a simple text-based TUI like a readline prompt is nice.
Being excluded from the store doesn't mean your code cannot run. It just means people have to want to jump over more hoops to run it. Ultimately, it might mean $99 for a developer account, Xcode, and signing your own binary. Contract law covers how you get the code to compile.

I only say this because there is no sense in pretending this is an absolutist position, that Apple has forbade their CPUs from executing instructions in sequence to the effect this or any other rejected app direct: what they stopped is making it transactionally easy, or chargeable under their model of revenue flow.

chatGPT is a bit like google or stackoverflow etc, but maybe more directed. Don't use it's code as it's nonsensical mostly, but it can definitely summarize well what directions to take.

Other then that, if it's math-heavy/complex, maybe start with parts. try to identify what you want to be libraries and core logic etc.

you could start by making a math library in C, maybe with some bindings to a higher lvl language you want to write the GUI code in. It will be quite a project in itself already, and once done, you have part of your goal completed.

Selecting, testing and experimenting with GUI code is also tricky. There's tons of different libraries out there. You can use existing, or even write openGL/Vulkan code and write your own. If cross-platformness is important, maybe look at things like .net maui etc. as it has that feature as a core feature.

Also, before writing anything, look into how to structure such large projects. Structuring your project will help in many ways, including deciding how to break up the project, where to start potentially etc. etc.

There's many ways that lead to rome, but most will be 'chunk it up untill the size of steps is so small you feel confident you can take a step, then take it'.

> China trying to extradite someone for criticizing them isn't the same as the US trying to extradite a Russian hacker who is behind a ransomware attack or a South American drug kingpin.

Why?

To them it's the same severity of "crime".

You don't get to define who takes what crimes seriously. If you open the door the US prosecution of overseas non-citizens for non-crimes they didn't commit on US soil, then you open the door for everyone else to apply the same logic to you.

Assange basically did nothing. He didn't break into any systems, he didn't access any IT systems, etc...

> trying to pretend like that is on the same level as criticizing the CCP or some warlord is absurd.

Tell that to these people, executed for criticizing a dead person: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlie_Hebdo

To you this might be an absurd reason to go execute someone, but to other people it was a "serious crime" requiring capital punishment.

I don't think the issue is whether Clinton made this comment or not. The legend simply points out what every one is thinking. That this threw the election for her, and that is likely her entire perspective on this. The Trump admin was likely motivated to prosecute, so as to appear they were not in collusion with the release of the emails, and the current administration directly backed HC. People like Kromberg do not come out of a vacuum.
The state of boredom is due to a lack of focus, goals, and having too many options.

Also, bored people are typically boring people.

Remove all social media, stop reading the news, get on top of your finances, keep a small but significantly valued group of friends, have a vision for your life, and have honbies and side projects, and failing all that - get off your ass and go for a walk. If you’re disabled that last part makes things tricky though unfortunately for some.

I’m never bored, there’s too many rabbit holes and too much work to do
Keep it as simple as possible.

Lambdas and all the serverless stuff is great until it isn't anymore, because you need another service for this and another service for that which gets a) complex quickly and b) expensive, too.

"AWS backend" can mean sooo many things - you will get better answers if you describe your architecture in a little more detail.
Visible polish is utterly irrelevant when the problem is with drivers -- the manufacturers have zero incentive to produce Linux drivers and the open source ones are of uneven quality simply because they don't have the information. This is not to shit on the developers, it's 100% the manufacturers fault but at the end of the day, it's my printer-scanner that doesn't work regardless who is to blame.
> There are lots of ICE vehicles that have enough power to overcome their brakes My diesel pickup could easily rip the brakes to shreds under acceleration.

I'll dispute that. Have you actually tried that? If so, your brakes are defective.

There's an easy intuitive way to visualize this. Remember that any change in speed or direction is acceleration. Braking is just acceleration with a negative sign.

The engine generates horsepower to accelerate the car from zero to some speed. While we don't usually speak of HP when talking about brakes, it is equivalent. We can also compute how many HP the brakes are producing when accelerating (with a negative sign) the car from that speed down to zero.

So: a car that has a more powerful engine than brakes would be able to accelerate from 0 to 60 (or pick some speed) faster than the time it takes to brake from 60 to zero.

Can you think of any car or truck that can accelerate faster than it can brake? Doubt it (unless the brakes are broken).

To your truck example, I have a one-ton turbo diesel truck. I hadn't tried this experiment so was curious after your comment and went for a drive. As I expected, if I hold down the brakes the truck won't budge even at full throttle. The brakes are massively more powerful than the engine.

They have to be, after all those brakes are designed to bring the full rated capacity of the truck and trailer (28,000lb) to a stop from highway speeds. The engine, while very powerful, has way less power (acceleration potential) than the brakes.
Achim, founder of AirGradient here.

These are all valid points that came up at the beginning of the year and we took this feedback very seriously.

I'm happy to let you know that we have implemented already point 1) and 2) in the latest firmware version.

You can now set the "learning gain offset" for TVOC and NOx from the default 24h to basically 1 year. As a result the monitor will behave much more like an absolute TVOC monitor as the baseline reset is much longer.

We have also implemented the automatic baseline calibration period, which you can now set to a much longer period than one week.

We are also looking into feeding the last vale back into the sensor to avoid the reboot issue but this is more tricky to implement.

By the way, if you compare the granularity that we offer now to fine tune the sensor modules, I'm not aware of any competitor offering the same feature set. But we won't stop here. We currently working on fine tuning compensation algorithms for PM.

Win 10 telemetry can be removed and there's no advertising.
The big question is how it performs with high-speed data. Google's Twinkie and this Twonkie clone use a design which messes with the data lines as little as possible so they'll probably still work with USB4 if you're lucky, but the linked ST device is routing those traces all over the board. No issue with USB2, might work with 10Gbps USB3, but anything more? I wouldn't want to bet on it.
At least you know with the typo that it wasn't generated by an LLM.
Because it's about as far away from the US mainland as you can get and relatively close to Australia where he's going. Also it's conveniently very far away from any journalists. At least, I can't imagine those shipping out in large numbers on short notice.

So, they get to rubber stamp this and get it over with without too much scrutiny in the media before the man starts giving non-stop interviews in Sydney or wherever he is going in Australia.

Hell even installing shelves in my closet had me doing trigonometry on a scrap of printer paper to figure out how close I could space together the shelves and still be able to get the boards through the door frame.

Calculation is one of the core skills of human cognition and is correspondingly foundational for just about all of human enterprise. Not doing it means limiting your ability to participate in said enterprise.
My point was once you start adapting to all the requirements you inevitably end up with a more complex system. Another thing that happens in a war is that the enemy will adapt to what you're doing.

The principles are fine (well, not sure camera is the right only sensor but aside). The actual engineering of a working system you can use in real life is complicated and that's what many are working on.

The current labour leader is the lamest duck in a group of wet blankets. His policies revolve around not being as corrupt as the Tories whilst doing virtually nothing else to better his constituents. His backbone has a restitution coefficient somewhere in the Oort cloud.

Heh, even as a 40 year old, I still don't know what "linear algebra" even is, much less what it's for or how to do it. I also don't know what a transistor is aside from "some component in electronics". Still, I manage to enjoy the softer side of HN, like the fluffy pop-sci/pop-tech stuff.

Even as a not-very-educated person, by the time I was a teenager, I learned a lot by reading Slashdot, PCGamer, Tom's Hardware, CNet, Popular Science, Popular Mechanics, Britannica, Encarta, Wikipedia, and the such. I was also involved in various BBSes, IRC, Usenet, MUDs, etc., and exposed to all the violence, sex, and general depravity that was the 90s-2000s internet. I learned a lot that way... for better or worse, lol. Definitely stumbled upon a few scarring videos on Napster, purposefully mislabeled as popular music videos...

I'd never want to shield a teenager from all that freeform learning. Or from the environments where they could anonymously participate as equals with other adults (or unknown persons). HN counts too... I have no idea whether you're a 30-year-old man, a 90-year-old grandma, or a 4-month-old AI puppy. Sometimes it's nice to not know and to just be able to focus on the topic at hand.

But then again, heh, I didn't exactly grow up to be the most stable or balanced adult... maybe there IS a reason to keep them protected... shrug.
Most of these jobs have to deal with unions. So almost anything advertised to the general public is going to be for training heavy entry level jobs. Very few will move up the rank and those that do will have to do so through the union.

> Rejecting it and remanding him to custody would cause a diplomatic incident.

Why would it be a diplomatic incident? When you are a fugitive from justice taking a plea deal is always a gamble because you have to show up in court. Should the judge reject your deal, you are handed over to US Marshals pending a new court date.

Edit: downvote all you want, it doesn't change facts. There is a separation of powers between the prosecutor who is negotiating the extradition/plea and the judge who independently evaluates the agreement.

It’s probably also in preparation for EU legislation on the area. Microsoft is a major player in the EU public sector and for good reason. They are one of the best IT-business partners you can have as an enterprise organisation on every aspect which isn’t necessarily technical, and their tech isn’t exactly bad either. What is the “realistic” alternative to most of their 365 platform? I say “realistic” because it’ll need to be used by people who can’t tell you if they are using iOS or Android when they need support.

I’m guessing that part of staying on top of EU enterprise in general is being EU compliant, it’s a lesson AWS quickly learned from Microsoft as their support area went from Google to Microsoft in like half a year as they realized it was the only way to get in on all those billions.
Wow that's the greatest news of this year! Congrats Julian!
The rationale is explained in this README [1], but it basically boils down to transitive dependencies and the amount of checks the compiler has to do. From linked README:

"If we `#include <string>` for the LLVM libcxx header containing the `std::string` class, then the compiler needs to consider 4,800 `#include` lines. Most of them are edges it'll discount since they've already been included but the sum total of files that get included is 694!"

It's about control and freedom isn't it?

If the economy is run by just a few oligarchs, mega corps. Then there really is no longer freedom to be mobile and the 'work somewhere else' arguments are gone, then the market breaks down and wages are no longer free floating based a supply/demand basis.

And typically, free markets tend towards monopolies, unless there is push back, some anti-competitive laws to break up big companies, or stop them from forming (like Ticketmaster). To keep injecting competition. Because big corps, really don't like competition, and lobby against it.

But in todays environment, anybody standing in the way of big corps getting bigger, are called communist. Any argument at all that capitalism should be regulated, and you are called communist. Really, any argument for employees having any rights, is communist. So yes, " Did the market cause such desperate circumstances in the first place?" , Yes, if un-regulated, it does lead to these circumstances.

Though, honestly, I'm not sure where you are coming from. You seem to bring in Entropy sarcastically, but also it sounds like maybe you are leaning into the E/ACC arguments. There is no good/bad, just survival of the fittest, and Pure Free Markets are a form of Entropy that we can't stop and should stop trying.

Maybe. I do tend to agree that efficient markets are most productive (efficient doesn't mean un-regulated chaos freedom). Efficient markets can have losers, and at that point it does seem that for overall productivity of a society, social programs actually help efficiencies (healthy and educated workers are more productive). But, of course, education and health care are communist, and we can't have that. I'm really not sure what the free market game plan is if everyone is sick and can't read. Where do the E/ACC people think they will get all of these dedicated educated people.
There is an ESP32-S3 version of this camera breakout board, which is presumably what OP might have used for prototyping.

So you would have to buy a ticket every time you go somewhere. That would work for tourists, sure, assuming there are vending machines that can print those QR codes. But it would not work for locals (imagine everyone buying tickets during a rush hour), and even for some tourists, it would be a nuisance. If you're visiting a city and you know you're going to take the subway N times, you would just buy N tickets, but with this system no such thing is possible.

And what about all those transfer discounts some cities have? Like if you're taking the subway and a bus within some timeframe, you still only pay once.

For an MVP I'd consider installing the database itself on the EC2 instance backed by EBS volume as opposed to going with RDS. Ive done it and I was surprised how well it performed for zero additional cost. Take care NOT to install anything on the SSD attached to the EC2 instance as it gets wiped on instance reboot (and thats not always up to you). Additionally, use IP whitelisting/security groups to restrict access to YOUR public IP for things like said database etc. Regarding public IP addresses, spring the fractional dollar and get yourself an elastic IP. I know the EC2 instance will have a public IP associated it but that can change where the elastic one is relatively permanent.
