Except it’s not a question of the doctor’s personal religious belief or preference, but rather a question of professional judgment.

It is technically possible for a physician to prescribe methamphetamine or fentanyl. Many adults in the United States want to consume methamphetamine or fentanyl. (Sometimes both at the same time!) But it is very hard to find a physician who will write those prescriptions purely on the basis of “the patient asked for it”. Like it or not, some degree of paternalism is an inherent part of the practice of medicine.
My biggest hurdle when trying C# (along with a very select few other languages) is that it’s very difficult to get working properly in my own environment.

I use an apple computer and prefer to write my code in a simple text editor. Getting C# (or god forbid C++) just running in such a way that I can just focus on the code and not the surrounding environment or build tools took me long enough the last time I tried, that I decided to just not use C#.

The Puzzle of How Large-Scale Order Emerges in Complex Systems
> I've had the best luck with providers that run a domain reselling on the side.

Yep. This is why I don't mind paying a slight premium to register everything through AWS's Route53.

AWS is making $90b/yr in revenue. Stuff's got to go pretty far off the rails for somebody there to sign off on "Yeah, you know what, I think we really need to start doing upsells and dark patterns in Route53 registrations!"

And if I need to contact support... their support department isn't budgeted based on running a domain registrar. It's budgeted based on supporting their cloud business. Every time I've contacted them about everything they've been quick, efficient, and competent.

So I pay them $14/yr instead of paying Spaceship or Porkbun $10/yr or Internet.bs $13/yr or... If I'm ever at the point where the $1-4/yr matters, I should probably just revisit all these domains I keep renewing.

> It’s when it fails at a simple task that we know what the limitations are — and trolls are the torch-bearers of this new englightenment.

I really don't agree. Watching AI fail spectacularly is a great bread and circus, but identifying something's deficiencies is not the same as fixing it. The thing these trolls get so damningly right is their denouncement of AI; we can't rely on shit text-generators that fly by the seat of their pants. The insinuated "but it's useful and does real work" shtick is over; I don't even see people talking about RAG value-add anymore.

The bubble popped, and now expectations are returning to normal. It's less of an enlightenment period and more of the "AI winter" that we've always known was going to occur once we exhausted the current scaling limits. The trolls are scratching beneath the surface and proving the prophecy right.

It uses, relies and depends on Chrome exposed primitive such IndexedDB. Hence the term chrome native.

Honestly, didn't give much thought to it. Just rolled with it :D
Yes, bugs in Linux are possible, so there might be some eBPF code that crashes the kernel. Just like bugs in Chrome are possible, so there might be some JavaScript that crashes the browser. Still, JavaScript is much safer than native code, because fixing the bugs in one implementation is a tractable problem, whereas fixing the bugs in all user code is not.
Ask HN: For human brains only?
How can one create content that only humans can process (read, save, edit, reply), avoiding AI scraping and analysis? In an age of advanced computer vision and audio processing, what methods could ensure information remains obscure to AI but readable by humans?
Given it's a paid service – probably not.

There are local code <-> LLM interfaces though (CLI tools, editor extensions), and if you can figure out a suitable prompt you can get pretty similar experience. (Of course, you'll also want to run an LLM locally as well)

The question I have is, why doesn't Windows have a way to allow booting still without the faulting kernel module?

I know there's safe mode, but that's the nuclear option, and safe mode isn't really "usable".

Couldn't a lot of this been avoided if Windows could just retry its boot after BSOD without the faulting module, and then they could push out a new module with a fix shortly after?
I determined that there is an error in Gutenberg's version of Samuel Butler's prose translation of the Iliad, where somewhere in the catalog of ships Homer's tessarakonta is translated as something other than forty. I think it was fifty.

I briefly looked into the process for correcting Project Gutenberg, but didn't do anything. And I have no idea whether the error was made by Butler (and would appear in print) or by whoever transcribed Butler's work for Project Gutenberg. I would argue that in either case Gutenberg should correct the text, but I can see where opinions might differ if the error is original to Butler.
Show HN: Interactive Visualization of GraphRAG
Hi HN,

I've built a demo to query quarterly earnings call transcripts from a select few S&P 100 companies using Microsoft's new GraphRAG framework.

One of the key advantages of GraphRAG over traditional vector retrieval methods is its transparency and explainability. Unlike vectors, which are often obscure and not human-readable, the graphs generated by GraphRAG are easily interpretable.

In this demo, the graphs are used off-the-shelf without any domain-specific fine-tuning.

Just a quick heads up. MAME supports Apollo workstations and servers since 0.240

A pellet gun is not taking down a delivery drone.

The topic isn't shooting a BB at a DJI Mini, it's shooting a bullet/slug from some sort of long gun at a delivery drone, one of these: https://corporate.walmart.com/news/2022/05/24/were-bringing-...

I agree that conflating airplanes and drones here is not ideal/correct, but as I said, both the bullet, and the drone, can easily kill someone if some reprobate decides to pop off at the drone.

I'd say a consecutive sentence for negligent discharge and reckless endangerment is about right, and bumped up to attempted manslaughter in places where it's crowded enough that this kind of behavior is straightforwardly as dangerous as, say, tossing a toaster oven off a tall building.

But sure, the penalty for shooting a Daisy Red Rider at one of the sub-250gm units should be indexed closer to property destruction/vandalism. If it's close enough to the ground to take a bead on it, it's not going to hit someone, and if it does, a laceration on the head is the worst outcome in the reasonable realm of possibility. Just don't be surprised if any legislation on this issue writes that particular scenario out of the picture.

AI Development Kits: Tenstorrent Update

Generative AI is basically like playing the game where each participant says one word of a sentence, one after the other.

https://youtu.be/kNJNV0GXO-s?si=3TKUpFoFHV7FNSHR

The AI has no idea where it is going before it starts outputting. If it ends up with a sentence that can’t be completed sensibly, it will output nonsense.

I think a better model needs to be able to plan out the idea to convey in advance and possibly backtrack.
I think that the AI companies will not reap all the benefit of AI like the car companies with exception of a few winners didn’t reap the rewards of vehicles.

The 4-minute-mile is an average of 15mph. I haven't measured how fast I can sprint, but at my age (40s), I doubt its higher than 15mph for any timespan longer than a few seconds. So milers effectively sprint for 4 minutes straight. Its mind boggling what the human body can do.
Consider how much more research and researchers we could have if we abolished the whole PhD thing.
Graphviz is hard. I only need a graph making tool three or four times a year and when I go back to mermaid, only 5 minutes of going through the documentation get's me up to speed. But graphviz is much more complex in a way I often don't need. It's also pretty verbose; You first need to define nodes then the connections while in mermaid both are done in a single line.

However mermaid's experience and output is definitely subpar. Under the saved graphs section you find randomly saved graphs and there is no way to organize multiple graphs in the web editor.

I've even thought of writing a simple script to translate mermaid charts into dot language.

The employment effects of a guaranteed income
Appreciate the feedback, mate
The culture at MS$ is to servitize enough of their products and then force customers to use them. That way, the products won't be so exposed to users and Microsoft will be able to limit their own liability without actually improving the back end product.

Servitization is a clever way to consolidate your perpetual licensed customers over to perpetual service contacts, while also further obfuscating and locking down the underlying operating environment.

This is in the best interest of Microsoft bottom line, at the expense of all private business, government, or anyone who values consumer experience really. It reduces the number of drive-by security incidents, but when WW3 happens and 75% of our economy is hosted in a whopping 12 datacenters across 3 companies I'm sure we'll be screwed. I mean just depth charging Google fiber today would probably take down 25% of the world economy.

> Overall, it's the general discussion about correctness VS "good enough". I consider that the extra complexity in a lib is warranted if it means less edge cases.

Yeah I just tend to have a very expansive view of this notion. I live by "all models are wrong, but some are useful." A Jiff timestamp is _wrong_. Dead wrong. And it's a total lie. Because it is _not_ a precise instant in time. It is actually a reference to a _range_ of time covered by 1,000 picoseconds. So when someone tells me, "but it's not correct,"[1] this doesn't actually have a compelling effect on me. Because from where I'm standing, everything is incorrect. Most of the time, it's not about a binary correct-or-incorrect, but a tolerance of thresholds. And that is a much more nuanced thing!

[1]: I try hard not to be a pedant. Context is everything and sometimes it's very clear what message is being communicated. But in this context, the actual ramifications of incorrectness really matters here, because it gets to the heart of whether they should be supported or not.
They can produce the same levels of continuous power, but their spin up (think throttle response) is drastically slower. FC Cars definitely need a battery or supercapacitor to handle instantaneous power needs.

For planes and ships, that responsiveness is not needed.

Both of you forget that for the longest time Intel consumer chips excluded virtualization and other features until Ryzen 1st generation had it available. Like AVX-512 for example. 1st generation was a huge win in functionality for consumers even if it didn't hit the same performance of Intel. AVX-512 wasn't support on first gen, but there were other features I forget now but it was also a reason I had stuck to AMD.
It's not that it isn't enforced, it's that the rule is very specifically that it must appear that one foot is always touching the ground when watched in real time with human eyes, the rule isn't that one foot must technically always be touching the ground.
Nuclear waste is tiny. It’s been stored onsite safely for half a century and never killed anyone. Why fix what ain’t broke.

Something can’t be used 60 years over usable life. Think about it.

What happened is that nuclear plants were given 40 year licenses in the US. After 40 years they applied for extensions. They were studied and it was found they had a lot more life in them. So extensions were granted. Why prematurely turn off a great carbon free generating asset that’s already been paid for. (That’d be peak German brain.)
I do not believe your question is being asked in good faith, but I'll bite anyway.

Sam Altman is good at people and therefore striking up deals and obtaining funding. Say what you will about him. He's as deeply flawed as the rest of us. The difference is that the press is interested in him.

One tangible accomplishment, which should have come up in the first 10 minutes of your research is that he obtained billions in OpenAI funding from Microsoft. In fact, Sam has a long history of this[1]. He's also instrumentally helped several very well known startups to success.

You seem to think of him as something like a charlatan, but soft skills are just as important as technical skills. Do I have some questions about his ethics? Sure. But as to the question itself, there is irrefutable proof.

Caffeine pills. Woah... so I guess I knew they existed but didn't actually know what their purpose was, but what you say about consistency is totally on the mark. I measure everything in my coffee process, and I'm lucky in Melbourne that so many cafes do too, but yes - I avoid most cafes that look like they have average and dark beans because of the wild inconsistencies and most certantly burned taste.

So do you take them to maintain alertness as anyone else would with coffee, to boost nootropics, or none of the above? Sorry for being nosey but this is interesting to me, because if I'm away from my machine and going to an unknown place then I take my portable handheld espresso machine and already ground beans, but a simple tablet sounds WAY more convenient!!

Just because you do not get any benefit from watching athletes excel does not mean it is devoid of substance. I find it inspiring to watch someone do something that they have spent years working to achieve. Seeing them do the “impossible” through hard work and dedication is a great moment.

> I am completely certain the median user is not in the weeds about what is and isn't valid unsafe code in pointless hypotheticals; the totally different set of idioms to get the same behavior for pinned references as for ordinary references is a much more pressing issue.

I agree that the latter is indeed a pressing issue. But my point is that the former isn't about unsafe code so much as safe code: safe users of a concrete pinned target type may observe any number of different API surfaces, some of which allow modifying or swapping out various parts of the pinned object.

For a practical example of this, when the target type uses one of the pin-projection crates, it has a choice in which fields to denote as structural or non-structural, which affects how much the user can modify each field down the line. Indeed, a type could usefully choose make all of its fields non-structural, if only its address is externally referenced.

The pinning invariants simply don't fully constrain what the user of the target type can and cannot do, except for those constraints needed for the target type's own soundness.
Most applications don't need more than them either. It's also easy enough to migrate off to self-hosted docker behind a load balancer if you need that as a stop-gap.
I think this is like asking "how do I encode binary that computers can't read?" or "how do I make tangible change that nobody can notice?"

You can't. By thinking, or writing, or speaking or gesturing we generate photographic, textual, audible information that can be parsed in multiple different ways. AI is simple and adaptable, however we fool it today becomes tomorrow's training benchmark.

Besides cipher encryption, I really don't think there are any ways to guarantee that AI cannot understand you. Most methods end up ensuring that humans can't understand you either.

Rick Beato's take: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DxrwjJHXPlQ
"There is evidence that the pattern of banned substance use in elite athletes is high, yet morbidity and mortality of elite athletes is not greater than the general population, and former elite athletes live longer and healthier lives than age-matched controls. There is evidence that misuse of PEDs, often obtained from the black market, without medical guidance or intervention contributes to morbidity and mortality in recreational athletes, but this pattern is not evident in elite athletes."

I don't buy that. Sure, that's true: there's billions of tons of uranium in the ocean and nothing bad happens—but it's *also* true that we added just a few thousand tons of mercury, and there's already fish that are hazardous to human health as a result. There's large chemical differences, in how different things are absorbed by microbes, and bioaccumulate in sea life; it's not an automatic given that everything's as comparatively safe as soluble uranium. (And don't forget: spent nuclear fuel isn't one element—it's about half of the entire periodic table. Many of those transuranics are barely researched, chemically).

This is a question that would need to be extensively researched, before committing to something that's irreversible on a geological timescale. Handwaving arguments aren't enough, for something this important, this consequential.

(There's actually rather a lot of spent nuclear reactors littering the ocean floor, so opportunities to research this question are available right now—if any scientists could be bothered).
