Computer vision is having another ImageNet moment
Over a decade has passed since the ‘deep learning revolution’ turned the world of computer vision upside-down, and now we are about to witness another transformative shift that promises to make computer vision simpler and more accessible than ever before.
For regulated firms like the French one I’m at, checking personal email on work devices and the like is simply blocked.

If you want to check your private email, you can just use your personal device.
My response to that would be that you can enable logging locally, or in your staging environment, but not in production. If an error occurs, your telemetry tooling should gather a stack trace and all related metadata, so you should be able to reproduce or at least locate the error.

But all other logs produced at runtime are breadcrumbs that are only ever useful when an exception occurs, anyway. Thus, you don’t need them otherwise.

>It’s also why major states like Japan, China and Russia have for the most part failed to build a competitive airliner against the duopoly.

I don't think that has anything to do with it at all. Building a competitive large airliner requires a huge industrial base. And since it's so safety-critical, it takes a lot of time and expertise to build the reputation needed to unseat the incumbents. China has an aircraft manufacturer, but time will tell if it goes anywhere, since they don't exactly have a reputation for high quality. Russia has built many large aircraft in their Soviet days, but their industrial base has eroded so they probably just don't have the capacity to build competitively-priced aircraft in volume now, plus they're not well-liked by most countries that would want airliners anyway. Japan might be able to do it, but just isn't geared up for building lots of large aircraft so it would be a huge investment to build such an industry almost from scratch.

Fuel efficiency isn't a factor because building an airliner doesn't involve building engines for that airliner, and engines determine an aircraft's fuel economy for the most part. Boeing and Airbus don't make jet engines: those are all made by Rolls-Royce, Pratt & Whitney, and GE.

What we're discussing here is always an actual sum type though, it's just a question of whether you're interested in half-assing it, and Rust is not.

There are people who want C's "surprise it's actually just an integer" which lets them use C's enums as bit flags, and that I agree isn't just a sum type, but the fact that Rust will let you sum things which aren't units isn't that this is "really" a tagged union, that's a possible implementation detail but not the core idea.

This is not C++ std::variant which really is just a tagged union. Option<OwnedFd> isn't a tagged union, it's "just" much nicer sugar for C's signed integer type. Option<&str> isn't a tagged union it's sugar for a fat pointer which can be null. And so on.

I guess it depends on whether you consider 1950s America dystopian or not.

Following the articles methodology I asked GPT about Missisipi Burning:

> No, the film Mississippi Burning is not set in a dystopian society. Instead, it is a historical drama based on real events that took place in the United States during the 1960s. The movie, directed by Alan Parker and released in 1988, portrays the investigation into the real-life murders of three civil rights workers in Mississippi in 1964. The story is set in the context of the civil rights movement and highlights the rampant racism, segregation, and violence that were prevalent in the American South during that time.

> While the societal conditions depicted in the film—characterized by extreme racial injustice and brutal opposition to civil rights—are harrowing and oppressive, they reflect actual historical realities rather than a fictional dystopian world.

Not at my company. We’re more like a family than a traditional startup.
My app was featured many years ago, and yes it’s true that they request changes to support the latest SDK. They weren’t feature requests though, more like removal of deprecated API calls, following the UI guidelines, and accessibility was a big one. But no I wouldn’t call any of those “useless features”.

> Ask any artist to explain how color works, and they’ll launch into a treatise about how the Three Primary Colors—red, blue, and yellow—form a color wheel

I doubt that. More likely that they look at you akwardly or say a joke and try to carry on.

Some artist couldn’t care less about colours. A sculptor thinks much more about shapes, a 3d animator thinks much more about motion.

A writer or poet cares a lot more about what connotations different colour descriptors carry. “The sky above the port was the colour of television, tuned to a dead channel.” doesn’t quite hit the same as just calling it grey, for example.

Painters have a much more intimate connection with colour. But instead of thinking in primary colours they will be much more familiar with the mixing of the pigments they use. (Cadmium red, cobalt blue, burnt sienna, etc) A print artist or someone designing figurines or design objects would think in terms of pantone colours. Someone doing thread painting with embroidery floss will think about DMC colour codes.

And then of course there are colourist working on movie and TV productions who would know all the article describes and more. It is their job to know.

I don’t know why an otherwise quite okay article has to start with this image of the dum-dum arist “launching into a treatise” of kindergarden level colour understanding. It feels a bit degrading, as if the author has low opinion of artist. (And certainly not considering the full palette of the arts.)
That does not make any sense; as the network usually is a much bigger bottleneck than compute, even with disk reads. You’re paying quite a lot for “simplicity” if that were the case
I still don't understand how anything these students did was wrong, and how anything ICE did was not fraud.

My understanding from back when this first came out was:

1. ICE created a "university" and made it as real appearing as possible

2. ICE advertised their university to non-americans

3. ICE's university told the applicants how to apply for student visas

4. The students came to what they were - by design - led to believe was a real, accredited, and good university

5. ICE arrested the students for immigration fraud and stole their tuition money

I do not understand on how (5) did not violate 4th amendment on multiple grounds, and I'm not sure how this would not be simple entrapment even if there was some belief/knowledge the school was not 100% above board.

> The recent tech layoffs have shown that employees are disposable in the eyes of executives.

In reality they are. There may be only a handful of employees in the world who are truly irreplaceable. Without employee X the shelves will still get stacked, the reports written, the coffee made, the code written, the product sold.

Naturally this also applies to the executives too ...
They might be subsidising low-end models like that with the M-series, but as they were definitely overcharging for RAM way back when it was user-installable sticks… my gut feeling is RAM* is mostly a differential pricing strategy

* for laptops and desktops, storage pricing tiers also give me this feeling; however in the case of tablets and phones, the way they're used — for most people they are the primary computing device in their lives — less so.

This is not news.

If you are loyal to your employer and do not own a significant part of the organization, then you should take a good hard look at why you're loyal -- and whether or not your employer is loyal to you in return.

Hint: in most companies, they aren't. It's exceedingly rare.

Base your decisions accordingly.

I will note, however, that there is also more to the story than simply "being disposable." An argument can be made that laying off however many employees also helps to preserve the ongoing livelihood of the employees who remain.

The error is often not in the layoff. It's in over-hiring in the first place. And that changes the "how evil are these people?" equation rather drastically IMO.

Of course, this is just the random off-the-cuff thoughts of someone who is currently far too alcoholated, so YMMV, and--

Look! A boulder of salt!

And on that note, I'm going to bed. Tootles!

> You make a 2000 hr bulb and it's half as a dim as a 1000 hr bulb, and so you're going to need 2 bulbs instead.

Dubious. Most people would not rewire a room in their house to install a new ceiling light because a new bulb was half as bright as the old, because the new bulb would probably still be adequately bright and the new light level is something they could adjust to (much easier than rewiring their ceiling.)

In other words, there isn't a linear relationship between bulb brightness and the number of bulbs people use. The number of bulbs people use is relatively unresponsive to bulb brightness because bulbs need fixtures and changing fixtures is a pain in the ass.

You're putting words into my mouth I didn't say:

The "modern web stack" has an incredibly high ceiling wrt how complicated it can be.

It's floor isn't particularly complicated however, and definitely not higher then the equivalent software with the native APIs from the 90s.

You had buttons, inputs, text boxes. Pre-2k UI APIs were extremely limited. Did we even have hover in windows 95/98 or MacOS 9.0? The first time I've seen that was more towards 2010 then 2000 - windows XP/Vista and MacOSX, but it's been a long time since then

> No, it really is not. What you're describing is some simple form, as if 90s UIs were constrained to that.

Please provide an example then. I sure as hell can't think of one and googling didn't provide me with anything but that.
As an employer, you are disposable, too.

The difference is the amount of time each side has, to develop an understanding of what that means.

I recently wrote a little tokenizer in Go.

The data structure for a token that makes most intuitive sense to me is a tagged union.

So I defined an „const iota“-style enum. Stuck it into a struct that has the appropriate fields to cover all the cases and it was fine.

Having some syntax sugar for tagged unions would be nice. Having exhaustiveness checks if you switch over them, could be useful in some cases.

But that’s not where my mental energy went at all.

Reading the bytes (runes) efficiently and correctly into the data structure however is the part that needs focus. Once the data is in shape, I‘m not „worried“ at all anymore. Sure a bit of extra support is nice, but also kind of superficial.

Also going further, dispatching on them is again never the tricky part. It’s handling the cases correctly and efficiently that has my focus.

In Clojure, a common thing is to write multimethods that dispatch on (namespaced) keywords. Similar in spirit and structure, but each method might now reside in a different namespace or not even be written by you. But I have never worried about exhaustive matching or similar. What’s in the method bodies is the important part.
Huh, demo not bad actually, and fair one-time pricing for plus version.

“There’s been a systematic change where employees feel the employer is extremely lucky to have them,” Mr Gurner said. “We need to remind people they work for the employer, not the other way around.”

As much of a tool as this guy seems to be, it's hard to say he's wrong here. I've also been noticing a surge of tech people treating companies as some kind of social service / adult daycare where it's the company's responsibility to make sure the employee and their family are living a good life. It's really bizarre.

This is hypersonic. Way faster, way more heat just from moving through air. We will not see passenger aircraft going hypersonic for a long time. It will be hard enough to make a hypersonic aircraft that doesn’t melt itself during flight.

The main reason supersonic flight is dead is the sonic boom. Until that issue is resolved they are banned over land, unfortunately.

The part that I find most galling about managers with this attitude is that they still expect loyalty, unpaid overtime etc. from their employees.
Hi, I'm Filip. I've showed this app in HN two months ago and got some great feedback! I've decided to post one last time to show the improvements that I've done and also share with others that haven't seen this app last time. I am eager to get some feedback or answer any questions!
Even as a cofounder of a vc backed startup, both of us felt disposable and replaceable by the investors.
What annoys me, is when companies expect _you_ to be loyal, when they would get rid of you in a heartbeat.

For the vast majority of employment situations, it is simply a transaction. There needn't be any talk of "loyalty", which in my mind is usually just manipulation.
Quickwit is targetting logs:

- it does not do vector search. It can rank docs using BM25, but usually people just want to sort by timestamp.
- its does not use an SSD cache. Quickwit reads directly into the object storage.
- it is append-only (you can't modify documents)
- it scales really well and typically shines on the 1TB .. 100PB range
- it has a Elastic search compatible API.
That's true, but I'd assume the server would like to double-check that the hashes are valid (for robustness / consistency)... That's something my little experiment doesn't do, obviously.

You're asking one of the questions that was an early skepticism of quantum computing. Namely, until very recently there was a line of thought that while you could draw machines on paper which break certain computational limits by leveraging quantum mechanics (or other physics), just like with perpetual motion machines before them, all of these designs would be doomed to fail because they would violate a fundamental principle to how the universe works. In other, the line of thought was exactly like you said, that computational rules were similar to gravity or energy conservation and thus couldn't really be broken.

Presently this line of thought is dead because quantum computers have demonstrated doing something that can't be done classically. So we know there's no theoretical reason not to have a quantum computer. But the thought that the laws of the universe might be underpinned by computation is still very much alive. Its just all qubits at the bottom rather than classical bits.

There's a cliche in the field. "Information is physical". Roughly it means, information only exists encoded on some form of physical medium, and all physical systems are reducible to the information encoded as the state. Physical things are information, information is a physical thing. Information is physical.
