Honestly, I think it would be pretty good law to treat any private entity that amassed too much power or control under the same kinds of restrictions as the government. It's not like only the government is capable of trampling on people's liberty, and concentration of power can.

Ideally, competition law would keep all private entities small enough to never need apply government-like to any of them, but I'd rather have some defense-in-depth and not let the perfect be the enemy of the good.
Cuda is a programming language. You implement it like any other. The docs are a bit sparse but not awful. Targeting amdgpu is probably about as difficult as targeting x64, mostly changes the compiler runtime.

The online ptx implementation is notable for being even more annoying to deal with than the cuda, but it's just bytes in / different bytes out. No magic.

I have a nice setup with notebooks, on one page I put down the date and my meetings for the day, then i list the tasks i want to get done for the day. I start crossing things off once they are done per project. Went to standup? ok cool cross it off, new task comes in, add it to the list to priortize for the next day. I can go back and see what i've done on every single day and which days i've been in meetings most days. Having a nice pen/pencil really helps.
That’s wild. There’s no way I could ever do that with a condo or rental house in the U.S. I would never get to touch main power.

This meme has taken root substantially in the minds of The Rationalists also.

A fun meme to launch would be that the Scott Alexander's, Richard Dawkins, Jordan Peterson's etc of the world should have to take at least some responsibility for the risk their memetic viruses introduce into the system.

Continuing this reductio ad abusrdum, you might reach the fallactious conclusion, as some famous cranks in the past did, that intelligence is even found in plants, animals, women, and even the uncivilized savages of the new continent.

>This could mean, in the worse case scenario, that if they confiscate your legally purchased hemp, and test it, then they could charge you for illegal cannabis possession because it has more than the allowed thc, and therefore is not legal hemp.

My attitude towards it when I lived in a non-legal state was to treat the THC-A the same as illegal stuff when it came to storage and use because cops aren't going to listen to some nerdy rant about the difference. They wouldn't even likely test it. Just charge you like they otherwise would.

I lived in a decriminalized area, so it wasn't a big risk. But I'm not sure I would take that risk in some place where they still do nasty felony charges for THC possession.
Isn't that exactly what a "clean room" approach avoids?
There are stories from credible sources that AMD software engineers had to buy AMD GPUs with their own money to use in CI machines.
Huh? The headers are either in registers or in stack. The top of stack is always in L1. There is no way in which this is inferior to handing over a pointer to a string and a length separately, other than requiring two additional words of storage in registers/stack.
> I think this could be cultural differences, AMD's software department is underfunded and doing poorly for a long time now.

Rumor is that ML engineers (that AMD really needs) are expensive; and AMD doesn't want to give them more money than the rest of the SWEs they have (for pissing off the existing SWEs). So AMD is caught in a bind: can't pay to get top MLE talent and can't just sit by and watch NVDA eat its lunch.

My life experience is that people will usually interpret other people's actions from the perspective as if they did them and what their own motivation would be. So in the case of the taxi driver and little girl, the taxi driver is a jerk because he would only do it to brag and irritate others. He couldn't fathom that a child was just having fun.

So I think it's really an examination of our ownselves.

Ok, non-tracking ads. So, until tracking ads stop existing, these will continue to bring in significantly less money.

It is extremely valuable to know which users are interested in your product. Advertisers want this.

This product from Mozilla can be seen as a step in this direction, leveling the field at a “less tracking” level…

At the moment, non-tracking ads bring much less money in hence much more content must be paywalled, it’s mechanical. It’s not like everyone with a site is putting up advertisements for fun.

Assuming you mean debts/mortgages, those already get subtracted from the valuation of the estate [0] which means the farmers you're worried about are even further away from having to worry about the Estate Tax.

Again, I think that get some clear estimates and go through the math, you'll see that "think of the poor farmers" is a myth promoted by certain non-farmers, where both of us would call them rich.

As someone with mild knowledge of semiconductor fabrication and optics, I honestly think these technology are not that meaningful to justify their cost of development and implementation, compared to the winning solution of arbitrarily complex plastic lens assemblies.

Chromatic aberration can be good enough with doublet lens design and Petzval is largely solved by the final field flattener usually with multiple concave and convex sections, and you can still easily fit a large number of lenses in a small formfactor.

Additionally being able to adjust the power of a lens is not a huge gamechanger, as a lot of the complexity with modern optic design is to counter various defects and distortion like aforementioned Petzval.

Rather, the fundamental limit is the sensor size. It's just not practical to achieve much better image quality with a physically small system

There is no way to read the description of the translation of the surname without coming to the conclusion that this was name was chosen for mischief, outside of the bounds of reasonable human societal expectations.

I belive your statement, "... claiming it is a medicinal cure all for any and every condition, much as is common today with cannabis" is really off base. Nobody who is serious thinks medical marijuana can cure any specific disease.

In any medical state, there is a list of specific conditions for which you must have a medical diagnosis in order to get medical cannabis. No doctor will tell you it is a "cure" for anything and nobody is permitted to advertise this either.

People tell each other that everything from homeopathy, to crystals, to keto diets to meditation can cure specific diseases all of the time. I do not believe that you could lump probiotics, to make another example, in with the absurd patent medicines of the 1920s.

Additionally, there plenty of promising peer review regarding cannabis. We've had high potencey weed for decades.
For me, the benefit was a lot of convenience.

And, the component was just "a component" and not "the purpose" of what I was building, so went with ZMQ.

You really need to learn about the burden of proof, since you'd (hopefully) be able to figure out that in this case, the burden of proof is on you to prove what you're saying is accurate. HN isn't a place for hand waving arguments where your only supporting proof is "logic".
Want to add some cool AI chat features to your product?

We did, too – and getting it to work with code examples was easy – but reliably scaling it and doing it securely was a lot harder.

Even at moderate scale, keeping it reliable and available was a major headache. Provider outages caused our product to fail at the worst times (like product demos).

What does it take to get our AI features Production-Ready?
We realized we needed multiple LLM providers so that we could gracefully failover to another when not if they had an outage.

Different providers had different rate limits, so we added the ability to retry a request to different providers whenever we hit a rate limit.

An let’s not forget EU customers. Without data tenancy settings to route AI chat requests to LLM providers in the EU, they wouldn’t be able to use our software.

We added response caching, a developer control panel, customer token allowances, secure API key storage, load shedding, and PII data redaction, too.

And now we’ve packaged up everything we’ve learned for you to use in your applications.

Head on over to https://llmasaservice.io/ and check it out. We're looking for application developers to pilot it. Get in touch, and let's get your AI features into production!

High quality communication is not the goal of any current social media platform. Some platforms are ideologically opposed to it.

From another comment:

The official reason: that "is not what HN is for".

Such a thing could be built, but whether it could be monetized (it would be extremely unpopular), or whether there is any wealthy human in existence who would fund it for the good of humanity, seems highly unlikely.

I like the idea in concept, but feel you'd run into the same problem 'fair' reviewers run into: if you get too negative for a company's liking, or don't say the given talking points, they'll blacklist you. So other sites get the newest scoops, the convention invites, etc.

Why do you think almost every 'top' reviewer on YouTube is so positive on nearly everything? Because the ones who gave fair reviews quit getting early/free access.

I don't know if I would call it a mess up. AMD still has massive market in server chips, and their ARM stuff is on the horizon. We all assume that graphics cards are the way forward for ML, which may not be the case in the future.

Squarespace is targeted at technically illiterate small organizations. They make their workflows as simple as possible for that user base.

Your history is wrong. The French Revolution did not begin until May 1789. The US Constitution had been adopted in March 1789.

Even if there had been instantaneous communication (and we’re talking a 2+ month communication lag), the framers were not influenced by the French Revolution at all.

When looked at in terms of actual writings from the time, the protection of property owners — including enslavers who claimed humans as property — was a key part of how the US Constitution was ultimately accepted.
I naïvely would have expected that's entirely from chemical reactions like lightning strikes.
This is very true. Line merges do not always work well. There used to be a tool called SemanticMerge which was able to handle merging code cleanly even when the code had been refactored. It saved me quite a bit of work a handful of times (before it was taken away because the company needed a value add for their paid version control software).

Apple releases public betas for iOS 18, macOS, and more
Thanks, I hope it'll be useful in your experiments. As for looking more realistic, I think it does the job; when I checked with Wireshark checked how different applications (e.g., games, programs) were communicating with their servers, I saw that they were sending empty SYN packets (i.e., no options) in order to initiate the TCP handshake.

Although hping3 does not let you specify TCP options, it still lets you append them as raw data. Despite that, only one application that I tested actually sent TCP (+options) back to its server. However, this specific server still ACK'ed my packets and proceeded normally, even if I did not send these so-called options. In any case, it will be easy to just append the options as raw data at the end of the packet buffer, for targets that actually discriminate based on options.

None of the real-world applications that I tested used fragmentation, and they all tagged their packets with "DF" (do not fragment); due to that, I did not really look into how fragmentation would affect this.

The reason I specifically included CIDR support, something that both nping and hping3 lack in their source IP parameter, was that ISPs or mid-route routers could block "nonsense" traffic (e.g., a source IP outside of the ISP or even country's allocated range) coming from a client; this is called "egress filtering." However, in a DHCP-assigned scenario, you still have thousands of IP addresses in your subnet/range to spoof, which should not get caught by this filtering. Ultimately, because the source IP would be coming from an entire range of addresses, firewalls (and CDNs) will have a harder time detecting a pattern as to block it.

As for defending against TCP SYN flooding in general, you could use "SYN Cookies" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SYN_cookies) as to expand less resources in keeping connections open. Unfortunately, in a residential ISP scenario where you only have one "real" IP address, your spoofed source IP would be chosen from a range of otherwise-legitimate addresses; those addresses (upon unexpectedly receiving SYN-ACK from your targeted server) would usually respond back to the original server with a RST packet as to terminate the connection, making it so that your "half-open" connections (the goal of SYN flooding) do not get to last as long. Lastly, this tool only really lets you flood packets as quickly as possible; if you have (or rent) multiple datacenter-grade bandwidth, powerful x86_64 CPUs, and lots of "real" IP addresses at your disposal, there would be little that your target could actually do to prevent you from DDoS'ing them. At that point, in the worst-case scenario, they could go "scorched earth" and reject all traffic from entire countries' ranges (saving their CPU/memory usage), but your packets would still continue getting routed there, and you could still saturate their download line.

As for how this could be made faster (without just throwing more cores and computational power at it), the entire overhead is on the Linux Kernel's "sendto()" side; perhaps writing a kernel module to communicate directly with the underlying NIC is the way to go.
