I’m also sort of curious as to how much of a market research they’ve done if they’re trying to compete with Azure and AWS.

Even before the recent LLM rush took off, AI was a thing. In the city of Copenhagen there was a project to digitalise a few million case files (which is 10-100 documents per case file), and how it was done was basically with an intermediary company who knew the training and a cooperation with Microsoft. Yes, I’m dumping down the complexity of it all, but once the training period of half a year was over, Azure made a lot (and I mean a lot) of infrastructure available for not a lot of money and the process completed in a week or so. Since it had to happen and because it was a PoC the same project was also done by real humans. This was the “actual” project and every time deadline and whatnot the AI project had came from how long it would take X humans to do it. I can’t recall how many X was, but it was enough to meet the legal deadline for when these case files had to be digitised and sorted correctly.

The human project was the result, and then the AI PoC was later used as a lesson on whether it could be done this way or not. It can, it was more accurate and not more expensive.

Anyway… I’m not sure who would’ve been capable of competing with Azure. (Outside the usual suspects). Maybe a company of Hetzner could? But you would need someone who can offer you a massive amount of computing on demand, and the only companies which are going to have that are big vendors.

Maybe it’s different with LLMs because the requirement is a continuous thing rather than something you need for a short period of time?
How’s the insect situation?
When Sublime Merge was initially released I liked it a lot. Mostly because of it's snappy speed (like Sublime Text). But since a year or so I'm using lazygit (https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit), which at least for me is the best git tool ever.
Or, many tech-savvy folks are living beyond email-era: as someone enthusiast about Ethereum and technology in general I never use emails or subscriptions and get my news simply by other means.
There are degrees of evil though. I'd prefer to be conscripted to an army that's fighting the Russians, than to become russian slave and die in a concentration camp somewhere in the Siberia over the next couple of years (a common scenario during the Stalin reign). The first kind of slavery is designed to give me with an ok life, provided my side wins. The other kind (the Stalin kind) is about exploiting me and tossing me onto the body pile, there's no good outcome there ever.

Also, the guerilla scenario is not that realistic. Russians are experts at fighting guerillas and insurections, they have accumulated centuries of experience in it. That's because they've been a multi-ethic empire consisting of a lot of conquered unhappy minorities for a long time now, so they had to learn how to keep them in check. They have world-class spy network and surveilance state, so that any dissidents will be quickly found (torture enough people and someone will give up the location of their guerilla relative etc.). Moreover, they begin the occupation of a given region with mass-murdering people who have leadership capabilities ( see e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katyn_massacre ), so that there's literally no one left who could organize the guerillas into anything meaningful.

For context - in the part of Poland occupied by Germans during WW2, there was a vast Polish underground state (there were 200k guerillas soldiers alone, but there were also underground schools, universities giving diplomas, underground theaters etc.). That was all operating under Gestapo's nose, and in spite of heavy military commitment to occupy Poland. Meanwhile, in the Soviet-occupied part of Poland, there was practically nothng. Russians were that much better than Germans at squashing dissidents.
It's fine to be in AI.

My takeaway from the article is instead of being a Gen AI startup be a Gen AI startup for a specific use case.
The parenthesis was an edit that I put after receiving downvotes.

I think the comparison is correct, in that who claims copyleft licenses are less free only considers their own freedom, not that of the society as a whole.

And it seemed a good example since most people will have heard of that, if not studied it in school at the very least.
Leap seconds are an extremely Earth-centric concept.
Saying that my statement is false doesn’t make it so either ;)

Negative leap seconds seem like they shouldn't be much of a problem. At least they don't involve repeating a second.

No queries came in during a whole second? Who cares?
It doesn't have to be credible. It just has to be noise.

The West can push back. Here's a 2023 list of separatist movements within Russia.[1] Most of these are small and weak, but with outside support, pieces of Russia might be destabilized.
St. Petersburg/Leningrad oblast has potential, because it's close to Europe.
With Finland and Estonia both in NATO, access to St. Peterburg is available. The Russian military is rather busy with Ukraine, and there might not be enough troops available to quickly suppress an internal revolt.

Yeah, that would definitely surprise me.
>Russia is fighting against the combined military intelligence apparatus of 40 countries

And is Russia's fault they are some assholes that only N Korea and Iran supports them, all their brothers slavic countries in Europe are supporting Ukraine, except the dictator in Belarus who is sitting and spectating.

Think about how much Netherlands is helping Ukraine, all because of MH17, some half competent non drunk Ruzzian diplomat would have done a better job in handeling this issue, probably they would have had to do something impossible for a Ruzzian , admit the truth that an incompetent drunk Ruzzian destroyed the airplane and send the guilty to be judged and punished.

So incompetent diplomacy, garbage external politics makes Ruzzia to have Zero supporters, this is an achivement and the credit goes to Putin and his gang.
Slightly different take than some of the siblings: you can still just build this stuff. If your goal is impact, maybe the best place to do it will be at a cloud vendor or other big corp. If your goal is actually just a big VC exit, then maybe not.

If your product is something that can be ripped off in 3 months, then it probably wasn’t going to have a long term impact anyway.
As someone who has semi-unwillingly worked in infrastructure and infrastructure consulting most of my career - we’ve never even really solved that problem, what on god’s green earth convinced you AI did?

I am genuinely curious.
They said other things besides just filtering, like writing responses.

You are not aware that chromium is open source?
When I was interviewing candidates in the 90's and 00's, I did the whiteboard thing, but not to implement strtoul (my Microsoft interview) or some algorithmic thing. I'd pick out a recent problem that was solved in our actual code base, clean out anything proprietary, and distill it down to something that could be designed and coded in about 40 minutes or so. That way, I could cover domain knowledge and coding knowledge in a microcosm of what the interviewee would actually be doing day-to-day.

If I were doing it all over again today, I'd skip the whiteboard and bring along a laptop loaded with our compilers and toolchain and any supporting libraries needed to solve the problem. I'd mirror it to the screen in the interview room so we could discuss the solution as we went.
Apologies, I see this is a common question that was already answered. Rust is a good bit ugly not taking lessons learned about legibility from Python. Take your time while sticking to standard tools. I’ll keep an eye on your choice of memory safe alternative to CPP. It is hard to choose a language you like, I don’t like any. Maybe Nim

How do you cover the server costs, without ads?
probably the median income of the area also goes into it, 1m with low median income might perform at about the same as 800,000 with high median income.

European cities - compared to U.S at least - also maybe have the factor of how long it has been a city to contribute to how much "a city" it seems.
> This is like the irrational hate some developers have for recruiters

It's not like that. As a business owner, be honest with us and yourself: just how much of sales and marketing you did was just bullshit? Exaggerated claims bordering on lies? Manipulative patterns? Inducing demand?

Approximately all marketing is that. It is that because it works, and those who refuse to do it get outcompeted by those who don't. Doesn't mean the world should be like that, or that I'd like to be subjected to it.

I also question the "we wouldn't live in the world we lived today" bit. In a competitive environment, marketing is a zero-sum game[0]: there's only so many people around, with so much money and time available; most of the marketing spend ends up being used to cancel out the efforts of the competition, and that race can consume all surplus of a company. Red Queen's race and all.

[0] Or negative-sum, if you account for externalities.
Confounding variables, perhaps? There’s also a correlation between those specific happy countries and their median wealth, which facilitates survival, peace and opportunity. Or is it that deeply religious countries are susceptible to poverty by nature of prioritizing ideas outside of material wealth? Or is the correlation actually that desperation leads to faith, a life preserver to grip during the seemingly endless hard times? Who is to say?
> Bazel does ignore those comments. Gazelle does not.

I really don't understand what you're saying.

gazelle does not seem to do anything related to the c dependencies there. The full diff gazelle generated is just changing "deps" in 'BUILD.bazel' files to include the library, and adding a "go_repository" to "deps.bzl". Not that it would matter anyway, gazelle is part of bazel.

There's no references to c dependencies anywhere in what gazelle produced. I could have hand-written those changes just as easily, without gazelle.

I'm only using gazelle here because that's the only go example that upstream has in the repo.

The "bazel build" part is very clearly the part that is looking for these C files, and doing so in a non-hermetic way.

It's possible to make it hermetic, sure, if you pay attention and vendor things or such, but it's obviously not required.

That's all I was saying, just like you can have python break hermeticity and depend on external C libraries, you can have go break hermeticity and depend on external c libraries. It's possible to use bazel such that it's hermetic, but it doesn't stop you from doing it wrong.

That's all this thread is about, is whether it's also possible to make these non-hermetic references in languages other than python.

Like, if you go back and read my commend and your comment a few up, you'll see that my original claim was just that you could impurely reference the host "libjack-dev", which I have very clearly shown you can, and your claim was that it's literally impossible to do that, which it very obviously is possible.
> Anti AI art people remind me of anti AI marketing people from hackernews.

... what an incredibly odd thing to say.

But really, I've noticed that thought-ending cliches like this one are popping up as defensive reactions around LLMs more and more. This particular thought-ender displays the most common theme - it dismisses all skepticism as being driven by some amorphous "anti-AI" demographic, presumably allowing the author to dismiss any concerns and thereby preventing any critical thought from occurring.

Kind of feels like "nocoiner" and "have fun being poor", v2 ...
Will Jakt be used as a C++ replacement long term? Going Rust for Ladybird is probably too far fetched given the sheer amount of C++ code. And also, Jakt seems to solve the memory safety problem while still giving C++ performance.
There is no published article corresponding to that press release.

There is only this published abstract:

Wireless mouse issue isn’t Mac-specific. Bluetooth wake-from-sleep is a thing on both Linux and windows depending on the device.

Fingerprint issue has been super annoying though. Only happens when waking, where it wakes and then turns it off immediately again.

My macs have thankfully never once randomly turned on or done an unexpected update; you normally tell it “update later tonight.”

I'm pretty sure Google published a list of such questions themselves at some point.

But as I remember it, they were always presented as "show you can think" not "know the answer".
The HP 5061 is not a handheld stopwatch, at best it's a counter top luggable.

You could try hosting on a cheap VPS and use PocketBase for your backend, or if thats too heavy handed, just use sqlite. If you're building something quick you don't wanna worry about handling a million requests per second.
But what does installing things via apt have to do with reproducibility? Does apt have some way to specify lock files or hashsums of the packages it is supposed to install? Or do you mean to pin version numbers of system packages and rely on that? Otherwise apt would be the point where the guarantees go out of the window already.

Regardless of cost, the meta verse is a dead end concept - at least until we get Ghost in the Shell-style computer-brain interfaces. Second Life probably was peak popularity for this kind of meta verse.
Ask HN: Why do various services send email with the From header saying "via"?
To be more concrete, my company uses services such as Zendesk, Zoom, Zapier, and PayPal. For example, from Zendesk, we receive email with a "From" address of 'Zendesk Status' via [the alias for info@myCompanyDomain]. The email is addressed to an email address belonging to my company. We already know that Zendesk is one of our service providers, so there is no need for them to say "via". Why don't they just use their own email address? Note that the "Reply To" email address is set to status@status.zendesk.com.

Ah, I see . But they had some voting when USSR exploded and they signed some treaties about respecting borders. They changed their minds it seems and laws would not stop a Ruzzian.

Ruzzians are stuck in the past, we no longer start wars to grab lands where some people that speak same language as us live. Not all people that spek Russian are Zeds and want to be part of Ruzzia.

The hypocricy is strong with Zeds since they are doing the opposite in Moldova, they promote a Zetarded idea that Moldova is a different language, that Moldovans are a different nation and that they need to keep their independence and borders (until Putin can invade).

As you can see Romania, Poland or Hungary are not even considering invading Ukraine to grab lands or people, we are living in a different age , we can help our nationals in Ukraine without killing.

But i bet you are aware that the Russian speaking Ukrainians are not the reason Putin grabbed Crimea or the other lands, it is all geo politics and inteligent Zeds admit it.

From the linked article from this blogpost:

> There's also the question of ethical considerations around using AI for mass personalized outreach. While my experiment yielded positive results, with recipients appreciating the personalized touch, there's a potential slippery slope.

Unbelievable... I'm not a philosopher, but in my understanding, being ethical doesn't mean walking the line just fine so as people don't call you out on your bullshit.

The ethics of an action is of consideration both BEFORE and after executing it, and on the merit of the action itself!
Sounds like https://xkcd.com/810/

> what’s the difference?

The key difference here is personalization.

Traditionally, if a message was personalized it fell under 'cold outreach' and users were more likely to interact and play along. Just like what happened with the author (the same applies for everyone).

It's like the difference between receiving a flyer vs being contacted by a sales representative. Even if it's they advertise the same product, the perception is different, the results are different.

If you're mean the difference from a pure technical spam detection perspective, I'm not familiar, but would love to read more about the subject and the state of the art techniques if anyone has some resources to recommend.
I love the idea of the comic villainy of someone who deliberately chooses to organize a team to find ways to circumvent Ozempic in order to keep their buyers unhealthy and addicted. Could such a schemer have an internal monologue, and what would it consist of? What do they see when they look into a mirror? Their experience of reality must be utterly fascinating and alien.

This is why we need nuclear. Humanity will always find a new expensive toy to play with, AI being the latest, and expecting large corporate entities to scale down their operations for the sake of future sales is like trying to bargain with a bear.
This makes no sense, the west has a system where people more favorable to Russia can be elected with some effort (trump, le pen, salvini, farage).

Discrediting Putin online will have zero effect on Russian politics.
And that I have full control of what I promote, where I promote it, how I promote it, and whether I promote it at all.

There's a huge difference between "here are all 20 banks that exists" and "here is an ad paid for by the bank".
The "helping sell hardware without Windows" part is actually more like "helps PC vendors exploit a legal loophole and Microsoft keep its market share". They could just as easily install Ubuntu/whatever on computers that don't ship with Windows, but that might make some people stick with it and immediately install Windows on it. But if they put a useless OS like FreeDOS on there, they can check the "has OS" box, as well as the "no bundled license" box, without any risk to Microsoft's market dominance.

Hell, I think HP actually did put Linux on some of their laptops, but just as a compatibility layer to run FreeDOS, since they couldn't get it to work directly. This was clearly done for Microsoft's benefit and nobody else's - don't let anyone convince you otherwise.

This is fair. However, I think the situation the OP is complaining about is not one application that does structured logging (where I agree with you that even if the data is "plain text" in some sense, it's not terribly productive to think of it as plain text), but instead about a system log that many unrelated applications write to. Each of those applications has their own way of structuring their logs: there is no standard. Hence you end up with something that is technically plain text, but also really nothing more because there is no consistent structure. So it's really just plain text.

Commonly it's because emails are not being sent from mycompanydomain's own SMTP server and via the service provider's own.

When setting up the service, account owners are required to setup DNS records that authorise the service providers SMTP server to send on behalf of mycompanydomain so that the emails don't get rejected or end up in the spam folder.
While US have had some influence on Russian domestic politics 25 years ago, it has none now.

The list is interesting as the base for the scission of Russia once the West wins the war, though.
While the official formula [1] is (4(n+1))^(2n)

if there are no errata leading to (FG)KASLR violations, then no problem disabling KPTI as a general security boundary. The thing I am saying is that vendors do not agree on processors providing ASLR timing attack protection as a defined security boundary in all situations.

you need to either implement processor-level ASLR protections (and probably these guarantees fade over time!) or kpti/flush your shit when you move between address spaces. Or there needs to be an understanding from the kernel team that they need to develop under the page allocation model that attackers can see your allocation patterns after initial breaches. like let's say they breach your PRNG key. Should there be additional compartmentalization after that? Multiple keys at multiple security boundaries / within the stack more generally to increase penetration time across security boundaries?

seemingly the expectation is one or the other though, because ASLR security is being treated as a security boundary.

I also very much feel that at this point KPTI is just a generalized good defense in depth. If that's the defense that's going to be deployed after your shit falls through... let's just flush it preemptively, right? That's not the current practice but should it be?
Only the Senate can remove the president. The House can only introduce articles of impeachment and vote on whether or not they go through.

This, I believe, was originally set forth because the Senate was modeled as an “upper house” not subject to the whims of popular agitation (6 year terms vs 2 year terms. Appointment/selection by States vs direct election by district constituencies). The House, having more direct connections to the people is given the power to investigate and impeach a president, hopefully as a reflection of the public. The Senate, being composed of elder statesmen and slightly removed from the direct consequences of local constituents, is to be a check on potential rash impeachments.

So I’d dare say the impeachments were worth the paper the constitution was written on. The House impeached. The Senate tried, and acquitted him.
