at the very least, they can induce manic episodes for some susceptible people. that alone proves these are real psychoactive drugs that have powerful effects on the brain.

there is still a question of whether they are really an overall good treatment for depression. i think the answer is "yes", but certainly people could disagree in good faith.

my problem is the most common anti-SSRI argument is that they are just placebos that do nothing at all, which is ridiculous.

> We would love to offer hourly on-demand rates for individual GPUs, but we can't do so at this time due to a limitation in the ROCm/AMD drivers. This limitation prevents PCIe pass-through to a virtual machine, making multi-tenancy impossible. AMD is aware of this issue and has committed to resolving it.

One idea to help you: Are you sure you need a virtual machine ? Couldn't you boot the machines under PXE to solve the imaging problem ?

Essentially you have TFTP server that gives a Linux image and boot on it directly
> I will never understand why people claim Apple is aggressively trying to monetize user data

Because they are a company, and companies loooove money. And data is worth a lot of money. The App store has ads at the top of every search. Apple's had a taste of that money and, is the cynics are too be believed, it's only a matter of time before the whole company succumbs. If you think Apple is somehow genetically incapable of bad ideas, remember client side CSAM scanning?
I'm tired of hearing "Tim Apple's Apple Can't Engineer".

VisionOS has some of the most incredible, coolest engineering I've seen in a long time, from top to bottom. Even if you're not interested in AR/VR, the writeups and sessions about the dual processor OS layout they've used, the scene and room graphing technology they've built, and the challenges of building ultra low latency pass through scene reconstruction and mapping are incredible.

Vision Pro might honestly be one of the technically coolest things built in the last 10 years, and I really hope they get the price down and fix some of the UX (weight, battery, etc), because it is something I use every day (and in fact, am writing this post on right now). It's for sure a Beta/DevKit/etc, and I wouldn't recommend the casual person to buy one, but again, on engineering chops alone, it is a masterpiece.

Why was multiuser so important? Apple’s most successful operating system in the Jobs 2.0 era isn’t multiuser either.

BeOS would have been a fine foundation for smartphones and tablets. But of course it’s an open question whether Apple could have got that far in the 2000s without the return of Jobs. I suspect the company would have been acquired or merged with some unsuitable suitor like Sun.
This is why it is critical for true open sources LLMs to continue to be available. Things like this make it clear that the closed models are being built to enforce corporate ideologies and not just 'safety' related issues. How long until these LLMs purposefully start sabotaging competitors? "I'm sorry, but I can't work on that task anymore." As a side note, I wonder if an LLM provider will ever be sued because they promised to deliver, and took payment, but then refused to provide the agreed upon service. You still get charged for tokens even when the model refuses to work. If this was any other service that would not be acceptable.
They're feeling double pressure in the low to mid market because French and Italian wineries have started selling cheaper and cheaper bottles of wine into the American market. Trader Joes has always had the three buck chuck (née two buck chuck) which I consider barely drinkable but now they've got an Italian Pinot Grigio for $3.50 [1] which has been surprisingly good and hasn't run out of stock despite being very popular. They've also got a good $5 French rose and my friends have been praising some of their cheap reds.

Imagine how cheap it must be to produce if an imported bottle costs $3.50.

The point of the proxy, is that it would talk to these fifteen different backends and convert them into a generic key-value API. And also, as with the AWS solution above, do TTL-based cache refresh of the secrets, cache-invalidation when it loses connection to the backend, etc.

Also, the "stub" client wouldn't really be a stub, as all the "ambient environment" secrets adapters would necessarily be local to the client rather than to the proxy. The client library would be a bit like using dnsmasq(1) as a local "stub" DNS resolver — where it reads your /etc/hosts and so forth, but for most things is deferring to a configured upstream DNS server.

This would be hilarious if LLMs weren't being touted as the next big thing in search.

This is as cleverly ham-fisted as my car's navigation system where the POI database was obviously manipulated by the manufacturer such that the "Auto" category of POIs only contained [ThatManufacturer] Dealerships.
I didn't say it was an Android killer. I just said that it wasn't vaporware hype - since it's shipped and lots of people have been using it. You made the rest of that up in your own head and then got mad about it.
Another annoying thing is when you give it random youtube videos to summarize, many very innocent ones on top of that, it does the censorship blip. Probably because the high school bio video had a bad word in its transcript somewhere talking about the genetic sex of a bird or whatever else.

They need to own their censorship vs. hide it like a coward here.
For everything that would be great, but I'm not the only person who has an Apple Airtag on their keys and wallet because of how fantastic that ability is.
I recently drove a rental that had lights and beeps, and steering wheel vibrations that alerted me to where it imagined the lanes to be.

Other than being frequently incorrect it was also incredibly distracting. I never want my daily driver to do that. I can't have a whole pachinko parlor of distractions going on inside the car when I'm trying to focus on driving.

Yes, but the annoying part to me is that the model doesn't enhance itself based on my history with it.
Oh totally forgot to mention: There‘s also an API to skip the manual steps needed on the website. So I plan on integrating it into database tools like DataGrip etc.
I can't replicate it. I asked Gemini Pro 1.5 and it answered just fine with detailed instructions for various download scenarios.
My first reaction is a simple: "Wtf, no."

Followed quickly by thinking that is exactly the kind of exploitative crap that nobody should put up with. Don't normalize that kind of environment by even considering it.
LaTeX is a nightmare to use, so you shouldn't inflict it on people. While I've used it and there's a lot to like, there's very little there that you'd want or need to make a resume. And without those things (most notably good formula support), it just doesn't add enough to justify the pain of having it in your life.

Or build it in and people who don't want to use it don't?

Your stance of FF should only have the features I personally want and the features others want should be in extensions is frankly laughable

It is. The color wheel says complementary colors pop, but it doesn't imply this is a good thing. It's up to the designer to create something interesting from the contrast, typically by not putting them directly together.

A sibling comment mentions the blue-orange movie poster trope, and this is an excellent example. Note how the posters use the two colors: large blocky areas separated by either a smooth gradient or a high-density area of interest.

Here's some other examples:

IPFS is slow and impractical. The design of the content addresssble system is cool, but having tried approximately annually to run it for production usage since it was released, I can say that it is still firmly in the “research project” category, a decade later.

25 years ago I could tell you what version of every CPAN library was in use at my company (because I installed them). What version of what libraries are the devs I support using now? I couldn't begin to tell you. This makes devs happy but I think has harmed the industry in aggregate.

They don't own the content according to the TOS, they get a license to use it (the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 license). They could still use it for AI training, but the model would have to be CC BY-SA 4.0 (not that AI companies care).

This is a great comment.

Our cluster is 128 GPUs into a single Dell switch... should help with the queuing. We also have a separate e-w 100G network.

This is why we went with Dell XE9680 chassis... people forget that PCI switches are quite important with this level of compute. Dell has done a good job here.
Even if it was, many of the products that came out were not defense products.

Nazi Germany spent defense money to build defense products. The war was going to end eventually.

Like spending too much money on remote work products during a pandemic that will eventually end. It’s going to blow up.

You don’t get to decide edgar the most important downstream effect is, not do you make it simple by adding quotes around “complex.” What you’ve referenced here is simply one of the many effects of increasing CO2 in the atmosphere.
I got them to add the Verified badge, but the rest is pretty much about as accurate as craigslist.
One of my big surprises when I started in the business world was how many decisions are driven solely by fads and mimickry. It all gets wrapped in a lot of jargon and fancy presentations to make it look like poeple are being thoughtful and sophisticated, but 95% of the time decision makers are just shooting from the hip and latching onto whatever random idea caught their eye somewhere else.

It's discouraging to think about how much time gets wasted on useless or even regressive work. Once I started seeing this everywhere my tolerance for pointless refactors and redesigns went to zero.

That's not to say that changes are always bad, but the burden of proof should be on the side arguing to toss something that works for $ShinyNewThing, but in the tech industry the bias is usually on the opposite side. Newness gets lauded for the sake of being new and objections get stifled by the trend followers saying that you are afraid of change or don't appreciate evolution. No, I've just seen the same hype cycle play out enough times that I'm sick of wasting my time on bullshit.
This sounds cool:

"Every active component in Rye is a function (if, loop, for, fn, return, extends, context). No keywords, no special forms."

It should make the language much simpler than other languages.
The challenge of programming is dealing with copmplexity in code, and if the language takes away much of that complexity it should be a good thing.
Microbeads with Adaptable Fluorescent Colors from Visible Light to Near-Infrared
I've been reading through the docs and skipping through the one recentish YouTube tutorial trying to make sense of what this actually is. While it seems like an impressive thing for what appears to be a one-man-project, the almost complete lack of documentation makes it feel like a bit of a hard no in the current state. There seems to be a history of it being heavily linked to Web3 things that also feels weird.

Some suggestions for this to be able to succeed:

- Documentation, documentation, documentation, the only place where I could that the three supported ways to write a serverless function are with Go, Rust and AssemblyScript is somewhere hidden in a tutorial. It all has to compile to WebAssembly so I guess that's the limiting factor.

- Examples?

- Using git as source of truth for the configuration/state of a system is cool. Please link to sample repos so I can see what a system with a website, some functions that touch DB and files, and the configuration etc looks like.

- How does the database part work? Client SDKs?

- There are lots of protocols with unclear names that are only briefly mentioned here but then seen in random places in configuration: https://tau.how/01-getting-started/01-local-cloud/#protocols

- The Concepts part of the documentation is buzzword soup, it's impossible to derive any meaning from it other than that the author dislikes Kubernetes and probably used some generative AI for the content.

- Roadmap, plans, versioning, plans on how Tau version upgrades should go, ...

The rainbow as perceived by most humans has six distinct color peaks / bands that are noticeably distinct from each other. Physically it is an even continuum of wavelengths, but look at it with your own eyes and you will see clear banding. This is due to way retina information is filtered to produce color signals before being fed into the brain.

Why seven colors? Because Isaac Newton felt it must be 7 due to it being a more mystical number, so he shoved indigo in there.
I love the verbiage. When I see a folder in the source named "dream", then files named "Universe" and "multiverse", it pulls me in :).

Would love it if you can share rates & how much time you spend on billable hours vs how much time you spend managing your practice & hustling. Also, if you're specialized in any niche areas?

I'm in early stages of exploring a similar thing. I'm willing to take a pay-cut for increased flexibility and time off. I've got a stupid-high big-tech comp package at this point, so I'm expecting pay cut to be significant. I'm just not sure how significant. I'm also unclear on how specialized/niche I would need to be, or if there's a market for "highly experienced generalists".

I'm sure it will be helpful for others, as the UI doesn't reflect that these containers do not come out of the overall allocation.

Well, CA wines are, on the whole, ridiculously overpriced.

A lot of people moved in on that, making it not entirely unlikely that supply now outstrips demand?

Same thing happened in various regions in France at various points in time. The viable plots will be reclaimed at some point, and make some fine wines in the future, except possibly not at the price point the original owners had in mind...
Consumer spending isn't down, just this class of wine sales, and like the GP suggested, it looks like it's just being displaced to other products because different beverages (and inebriants) are in fashion.
Interesting concept, looks really good!

Ask HN: What are your favorite index ETFs for Investing?
There are many people that recommend the straight forward full-index ETFs such as Vanguard's VOO for the S&P 500. I have also run across QQQ (Nasdaq / Tech heavy) and XLG (Curated set of S&P 500).

What index style ETFs have you uncovered in your research that you might recommend?

Has anyone had any success or warnings with some of the more exotic leveraged holding ETFs?
thank you. that, and another setting in an article linked from there fixed the impossibly thin scrollbars i had to endure in some web-apps.
What exactly seems great? I ask because from what you have provided here, they seem craptacular to me.

Do they give you 6 weeks of mandatory vacation? Do they pay you 40% more than an equivalent job at a 5 days per week company?
I have signed a number of work agreements when being hired by a number of US companies.

They all clearly state that I transfer all rights, including the copyright, to the company. But it only applies to the code I write using company's technical means, or otherwise as a part of doing my job.

(Hence I keep any private stuff on my own laptop, never on company's.)
I think you’re missing the point on orange. When I see aquamarine, I see blue and green at the same time. It feels like blue-green. Orange on the other hand looks and feels like a unique color, not red + green (although I know why that is). TFA is using physiology to explain why these color mixes are perceived differently.
I found it interesting that this was the focus when users of Vercel etc. have probably decided against k8s already. For me, a k8s comparison would make sense if this was a platform for running containers/VMs in a more traditional server model.
You're saying you'd rather society not invest in fundamental research into new mechanisms of curing disease with applications to prions (medically and economically devastating), genetic disease, and potentially neurodegeneration? Also even if you were correct about this area of research not being a big priority, failing to invest in small priorities is a pretty solid way to lose your technological edge and competitiveness as a nation so let's not kneecap ourselves for no reason.
> I actually have one!! No much difference spotted tho.

For me, it makes all the difference about the speed of offloading. Without it, I needed about 10 minutes of getting ready, just sitting there. With it, I'm ready as soon as I climb up the throne. Also, the whole procedure is much faster.

There is one thing I forgot to mention: right after the breakfast I usually drink a liter of water every day. Fifteen minutes later, and I have to go. I read somewhere that number one ingredient for bowel movement is water. I also never ever go to the loo if I don't feel like it.

Some life situations have this phenomenon where one minute you feel like you need to go, the other you don't. Do not trust that second feeling! As soon as you get to the loo and relax, the body will do it's thing. So, counting that one call as a real call is important, and not going after the "maybe not now" feeling.
Eh, these public LLMs are censored in all possible ways.

I asked Gemini to summarize the French parliamentary election system for me (basically pull some info off Wikipedia) and it said it can't comment on political matters.

I understand it refusing to comment on Trump vs Biden, but to refuse to summarize a law makes it ... not useful.
It does not prohibit delegation. For example, there's no article saying that the lawmakers don't have to write laws in their blood, either.
