I'm not asking for someone to overfit to being able to properly answer the question of "What day is it today?" I'm giving an example of a simple question that all LLMs need to be able to answer correctly.

But like, people are on here saying that this will make scientific improvements, and until it can get past the basic stuff, it's not in the ballpark of anything more complicated. Right now, we're basically at the stage of 10 million monkeys on 10 million typewriters for 10 million hours. Like, maybe we'll get Shakespeare out of it, but are we willing to sort through all of the crap it will generate along the way, when it can't actually create a useful answer to simple questions?

Ask HN: Should I remove work experience from resume?
I'm 40 years old and worked in programming for 20 years now. I don't want to follow the management track. Should I remove experience from my resume to avoid ageism in automated resume filters? So far I'm not getting a lot of responses to my applications (or almost instantaneous rejections).

It's hard for me to read the Culture novels and not hear Porno for Pyros' "Pets" on loop in my head.

It is amusing that this essay starts with "Government" and does not get down to the intelligences until halfway through -- in my mind, it's all just the intelligences watching the funny monkeys play at still having meaningful role in the Culture and the surprising things they do at the edges of its influence.

I had something like this with potatoes but with texture not taste. I was in a situation where I had to eat potatoes, I powered through ate them slowly and that aversion evaporated for me after that. I'd feel a gag reflex from mashed potatoes, baked wasnt easy either. I'm insulin dependent and in the 1980's I took my whole insulin dose first thing in the morning. This made skipping meals, let alone delaying them difficult. But maybe that from a gene that causes it by a reflex. My mom didn't like beans her entire life, same issue different starchy food, she was fine with potatoes.

A reminder that the federal government still showers the fossil fuel industry with money and favorable tax regulations in almost every form imaginable.

* Name-your-price expenses for drilling costs

* Superfund-cleanup-excise-tax exemptions for crude extracted from certain kinds of fields

* A tax rate of 21% thanks to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (it was 35%)

* Explicit subsidies

* Underpricing the environmental, health, and economic damage/expenses/losses caused by fossil fuel burning (versus renewable energy)

* Near-freezing of sales taxes on fossil fuels, resulting in them falling dramatically when adjusted for inflation despite growing evidence of how widespread their harm is, and obvious growing costs from their continued use

In 2021, the federal government gave the coal industry alone half a billion dollars in "R&D" funding.

Meanwhile there's a myth that we need all this for "energy independence." We've gone well beyond "energy independence" to "fourth largest exporter of oil" and "#1 in oil extraction in the world." We extract twice as much oil as the Saudis.

One of the reasons "green" tech was so expensive for so long: the massive handouts being given to the fossil fuel industry. The next time you're filling up your gas tank and grumbling about high gas prices, think about how they receive at least twenty billion dollars a year from the feds - not counting state and local stuff.

Only in the last 2-3 years has funding for renewable energy technology started to approach that being given the (heavily established, dominating) fossil fuel industry.

What's wild is that despite those huge handouts for fossil fuel industries, solar and wind dropped below fossil fuel costs (per GWhr) well before the funding increase, and have continued to drop.

Don't even get me started on the handouts the nuclear (fission) industry gets, including free training for thousands of nuclear plant techs thanks to the navy...while the cost of nuclear power has only gone up despite being only a decade or two shy of a century worth of development.

I recently got frustrated with OpenSCAD and decided to try CadQuery and Build123d. The modeling backend is a big step forward, but the GUI is not nearly as good as OpenSCAD. I managed to get it working via VSCode with a plugin, but I’m dreaming of embedding everything in a dedicated MacOS app so I can jump into CAD work without hacking through dev setup.

I’m curious what the endgame is for GPUs. It seems like over-time they’ve been going down the road of generally-programmable parallel processors.

Will there come a time where, like CPUs, we land on a more general programming model and we don’t need graphics apis to introduce new features? Instead, if there’s a new graphics technique we don’t have to wait for a new DirectX feature, we can just code it ourselves?
I hope you consider an open source model: code available freely on GitHub & app available for purchase on your website.

I was scared about doing it this way, but it worked out for me: https://videohubapp.com/ for pay-what-you-want-$5-minimum for my app, and https://github.com/whyboris/Video-Hub-App git-clone-and-build for the code. I currently sell about 60 copies per month (same average across the last 4 years too).
They are, but not so much in the case of Go - it is optimized for small containers with few CPU cores, that do not need to sustain (inevitable) high allocation throughput.

This is what happens when it's in different conditions, in a test that is still very friendly to Go using the stack which it's supposed to be very strong at: https://github.com/LesnyRumcajs/grpc_bench/discussions/441 Note the CPU % usage. The numbers only get more interesting once you start using 64 core hosts.

You could also look at write barrier/synchronization/allocation sensitive microbenchmark instead which paints way less positive picture: https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/... (special props to OpenJDK's write barrier elision, this is something .NET needs to do better at still)

New Orleanian here - the areas in the article are generally on top of swampland and structures sink/erode quite substantially. They’re also outside of the levee protection zone which are primarily earthen levees. When following the road all the way to the end[0] roughly halfway it’s a real trip when you pass the massive concrete structure with a flood gate and suddenly see water bordering each side of the road. It’s also quite dystopian the amount of giant oil facilities that you pass by.

There are non-earthen levees in the city as well. For instance in the 9th ward. These are the levees that failed during Katrina. It’s the Army Corps of Engineers that constructs these levees and have become more complex (better?) over time; imagine an upside-down “T” structure buried in the ground.

If I had to guess, I suppose the reason may be that it’s because they’re outside the protection zone, and so, when it floods (not if) their infrastructure would be surrounded regardless. Also, a concrete structure surrounding only their plant I assume is orders of magnitude cheaper than moving the amount of earth it would take to build 100+ miles of earthen levees.

It's socialist in the sense that the Minds could just fuck off and have their own corner of the galaxy, but instead devote processor cycles and physical presence to ensuring helpless little oxygen-breathers have everything they need
Economic systems of the 1800s doesn't really make sense in a space based, post scarcity society - economics is after all, the allocation of scarce resources. But I would argue that the ultimate aim of the socialism as envisioned by Marx wasn't government control over the means of production (the "dictatorship of the proletariat") but rather "full communism" where the eventual aim was to make resource allocation unnecessary, which in a way, does hint at a post scarcity society. So I can see the connection to the original Marx. Less so with the so-far practical implementations of socialism.

Economics: Chicago, Austria, and Me
People take genetic determinism way too seriously, and that original "Why Cilantro Tastes Like Soap" NYT article has been aggressively misused to justify a generation of picky eaters. It's tragic how many people miss out on an incredible food because they believe it is their genetic destiny to never like it.

That genetic predisposition only really matters for your first exposures to cilantro. I used to abhor the taste and found if completely vile, but after having more friends from cilantro heavy cultures I kept trying it, and trying it and trying it.

It went from horrid to okay, and the from okay to one of my favorite tastes. You don't need "general genetic pool changes" in order for cilantro to become more widely adopted, you just need enough people who like it to encourage those who initially don't to give it a few more tries.

If you're someone who genuinely likes exploring new foods and flavors and have let that silly article convince you that you are doomed to never enjoy cilantro, keep exploring, you'll find reward. If you're a picky-eater, that's fine, just tone down on the genetic determinism.

It's probably more of a node thing than a fab thing. You would have a much easier time getting the fab to do random stuff for you on a legacy node compared to a leading edge node.

Leading edge nodes are basically black magic and are right on the edge of working vs producing broken chips.

You as a customer would never want to be in a position where you are solely responsible for yields.

In my experience $20-$70 an hour is too much. We were offered $50/hour meeting space at a local incubator, but the numbers never added up.

It is hard enough to get people to show up if it is free, requiring people to pay to attend a casual meetup would not work in our situation. Who is going to foot the multi thousand dollar per year bill for meeting space?

This is why municipalities need to provide this space for free. It is a very hard burden to get a single person to foot the bill for meeting space, whereas the municipality can charge everyone $50/year on their property taxes and build meeting spaces which everyone gets to use. People love to moan about taxes but I think this is one of those problems solved better in the collective.

For $50 or so, you can get an Arduino kit with breadboard and some components including transducers, to get actual hand on experience that you just can't get from books.

The Arduino doesn't run Linux, you're much closer to the hardware, which is important to your goal.

Given my cultural history, I sure do wish I could.

Regardless, police have people holding them accountable some 20% of the time. No one's holding Apple accountable in the US, apparently.

Okay... I'm a regular Joe. That sucks but let's not pretend I'm leaking government secrets even if all that happens. I see bad malware on phone (with my data backed up), I reset my phone. It's software, not a serial killer.

You can argue identity theft and all that, but that's not a unique feature to IOS/Android/Windows/Linux. So I don't count that as a bonus/demerit to any given platform.

Given that there's no sales taxes at the federal level, and there's an excise tax specifically for fuels, it's a bit baffling to say that's "favorable tax regulations". It might not be indexed to inflation, but it's still less favorable tax treatment than for most other goods.
I'm sure most people's reaction to the discovery that cilantro taste is genetically determined simply think "Oh, so I'm not crazy for disliking it" and they move on in life rather than lean heavy into genetic determinism like you claim.

This kinda seems like you giving yourself too hardy of a pat on the back for grinding cilantro.

No, CLI apps also trigger access checks. Like I said, try it in your terminal using "ls". You'll find that trying to access a sandboxed container triggers a permission check.
Maybe in therory, yes. In practise the fab will never allow you to do anything at your own risk because it might contaminate or break their $170 million machine. If you offer a few billion extra to cover that risk, your cheaper off building your own fab instead.
Supposedly much traffic is also being warehoused, including encrypted data, so that when decryption becomes easier it can all be read.

Which means we might have to contend with a future where LLMs think about every email written, message sent, word spoken with an active mic nearby, etc. Unless civil protections are put in place to prevent this, each person is likely to have a profile built with an excruciating level of detail on their entire life.

But it's not just intelligence agencies. This article talks about open-source data - even corporations building advertising profiles have access to immense data freely available online or available to purchase.

There aren't many great production-ready open-source frameworks for code-editor components in Swift. I assessed quite a few but found that the feature completeness was far from what I needed. I tried to fork [CodeEditSourceEditor](https://github.com/CodeEditApp/CodeEditSourceEditor) and add the extra features I wanted, but I think it would have taken me 6-12 months to get it to an acceptable state, meanwhile not spending any time focusing on the rest of the product experience.

I decided to play around with Typescript and Electron over a weekend and ended up getting a really solid prototype so I made the heart wrenching decision to move over.

I'm messing around with writing my own text editor component in Swift now, but it's quite a big endeavour to get the standard expected for a production ready product.

I'm assuming a pure-swift CAD UI would be equally difficult. Would be really cool to see that tho.
