Because it doesn't solve a real problem. If you try to articulate why it is that a particular old person is president and then dig in a little bit, it quickly becomes apparent that the real problem is something else. For example, in this case, the problem isn't the Biden is old. The problem is probably somewhere in how the Democrat party of the US is picking candidates.

FDA did not approve it, that is the highest level and requires proof that it is more effective than placebo I believe. The FDA only looked for adverse events in the data and granted authorization to market it as they determined it is very low risk for adverse events. But people will be mislead by the FDA-authorized status as some kind of FDA blessing that it works: https://www.fda.gov/news-events/press-announcements/fda-perm...
If you do find a book which manages to totally captivate you, then you’d just rather read that instead of returning to normal life. Not sure if this really counts as helping ADHD
Age related declines are absolutely guaranteed and presidents serve for 4 years and senators for 6.

That doesn’t mean no 80 year old is more mentally proficient than the average 60 year old, but we want more than average here.

Completely serious - I bet Tetris could be approved by the FDA for ADHD treatment if The Tetris Company were willing to put in the effort for all the paperwork and fees.
Big reason for that is that the requirements also have age requirements, which ensures that nobody who is even 35 is electable today.

So the end result of those age requirements is that you prevent people from getting the necessary experience to become good leaders, resulting in way older politicians than most countries. Politicians being too young isn't an issue anywhere, politicians too old however...
That is a counterfactual that is pretty hard to prove. The US is a very large machine and I find it hard to believe that two wars were enabled by the presidents weak will alone.
I'm less concerned with people's perception and strictly concerned with value. If we were to define value as the number of things that can be automated or severely improved by the technology or its future versions, there is a misalignment between value and perceived value.

The value is lower than perceived because there is an assumption that what's preventing higher value delivery from the investment is for the models to get better at generating responses from prompts. But there are two issues with this position.

1. LLMs still require plenty of assistance where they are writing production ready code and making function-calls, especially if the original API wasn't designed with LLMs in mind. Unless there is a leap in architecture that's going to make all the tools we have, including non-API ones easily accessible by the models to interact with, the amount of glue code required to make it all work increases the potential for features that users can use, but not necessarily deliver higher value to developers in that a lay person still probably can't develop software with an LLM copilot in toe. So yes, no one is going to be impressed even if we see models improve further on benchmarking.

2. Long-Horizon goals. Long-term research or even project management requires interdisciplinary understanding of how all the goals around success relate to each other and most importantly how to assess if an outcome is leading to a goal accomplishment or not. There isn't an architectural foundation for the models to be grounded in a reality that presupposes these abilities.

What I fail to see, is how improving next token prediction will materially move the needle on these other aspects of intelligence that aren't necessarily related to generating an output or a series of outputs orchestrated over an evolving set of requirements.

Honestly lI think that the LLM portion of the human brain has likely be surpassed by existing models

The thinking at the time was: how can someone under the age of 35 ever have enough accomplishments to be elected president? They believed that would only happen if they were the child of a famous person or former president.

The Constitution was largely written as a departure from the monarchical British system. By not allowing presidential candidates younger than 35, this would prevent hereditary transmission of the presidency. Past 35, a candidate is more likely to stand on their own merits rather than their family or connections.

Thanks for your perspective. I've known and lived with several people who have ADHD, and you've expressed exactly the perspective I expected to hear from them.

"Games as treatment" are a new frontier of "selling bullshit". This happened before in education, and it's now making its way into health care.

The problem, here, is that the users aren't any part of how these games are designed. Everything about them is just directed at making presentations to investors and licensing bodies.

In the real games industry, user testing is the apex of success: you know your users will enjoy and benefit from your design choices because your users have already enjoyed and benefited from your design choices. When this relationship doesn't hold, the game gets changed. Play testing is king.

This kind of thing is cynical, thoughtless, and testless. It shouldn't exist, and it's nothing more than the effort of some founders to gather funding from clueless agencies.

A few others who'd voted for impeachment (House) or conviction (Senate).

Those are:

House (10): John Katko (R-NY), Jamie Herrera Beutler (R-WA), Adam Kinziger (R-IL), Dan Newhouse (R-WA), David Valadao (R-CA), Peter Meijer (R-MI), Tome Rice (R-SC), Fred Upton (R-MI), Anthony Gonzalez (R-OH), Liz Cheney (R-WY).

<https://www.npr.org/2021/01/14/956621191/these-are-the-10-re...>

Senate (7): Richard Burr (R-NC), Bill Cassidy (R-LA), Susan Collins (R-ME), Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), Mitt Romney (R-UT), Ben Sasse (R-NE), Pat Toomey (R-PA).

<https://www.npr.org/sections/trump-impeachment-trial-live-up...>

In terms of public awareness, I'd roughly rank Romney and Cheney the overall leaders (previous GOP Presidential candidate, and daughter of a previous GOP VP), then perhaps Collins, Murkowski, Burr, Sasse, and trailing those Kinziger, though that's my own seat-of-the pants / /dev/ass estimate.

As mixed-party tickets, any of those named, possibly excepting Sasse, might be draws, though Cheney or Romney would lead my own picks. Both reluctant but pragmatic.
> In principle, an AI learning from a scientific textbook is no different than a human student doing the same.

In principle human brains don't count as a copy of a copyrighted work, whereas the AI model that is capable of regurgitating the original-- I don't understand how that's not a copy[1] or derivative work which is a good indication the judges presented with these questions won't understand either.

So, no, a brain with knowledge is a brain, and an AI model with knowledge is a potentially infringing copy or derivative work.

I think it's more complex than that. While web browsers do use GPU rendering, they're not game engines. They don't draw every single object on the screen every frame, that could easily cause lag on a large complex page.

Chromium in particular tries to minimize the total number of layers. It renders each layer into a pixel map, then for each frame it composites all of the visible layers into the final image.

That works really well in practice because you often have lots of layers that move around but don't actually change their pixels. So those don't need to be rendered (rasterized) every frame, just composited.

If you have a bunch of box shadows without transparency, Chromium will rasterize the whole thing once as a single layer.

If you have a bunch of box shadows with transparency, Chromium might create a separate layer for each one. That's probably suboptimal in this particular case, but imagine if your partially transparent box shadows had to also slide around the page independently.
Well... why indeed? If you don't feel up to justifying it you should support removing arbitrary limits.
Roast my Product or provide honest criticism or Both
Hello folks,

I’m a 21-year-old coder who has built a product called Concurrence AI. Check out the website at www.concurrence.ai.

and please roast it or give some sort of constructive criticism.

A few lines pitch:

Basically, it's a bot that helps you moderate your groups on WhatsApp, Slack, and Telegram (with more platforms being developed) 24/7 using custom filters. It’s powered by AI, allowing you to set specific rules for your community. For instance, if you run a community for your business and don't want random ads from competitors or spam, it can handle that, regardless of the language removing the need of hired/volunteer moderators

P.S. - Do you think it has scope in the future?

It's a two-round voting system. It is, by definition, not FPTP.

There only functional difference between it and say, the original French two-round system that Maurice Duverger (of Duverger's law) contrasted with FPTP is that someone who wins an outright majority in the first election (an open "primary" in California) is not immediately elected.

The fact the second round is FPTP doesn't change the overall voting system. With only two candidates for a single seat, most voting systems degenerate to FPTP, but none of the issues related to FPTP are present either (there are no clones, no strategic voting, etc.)
equally seriously, if you ran proper scientific studies showing actual improvements with tetris because it's a very rules oriented game, vs something more abstract, like Stardew valley, isn't that actually a treatment?

Show HN: I made an SDK that lets you rate limit your APIs using a UI
I made an SDK that allows you define rules at which you can rate limit your API endpoints using any rule your want and you do so from your dashboard. You can rate limit by a field in the body of your API endpoint, an header, an argument and many more!

All you need to do is install the SDK in your code and it does the following

-> Auto syncs and lists all your API endpoints on your dashboard
-> You can click on any of the APIs and select the type of rate limiting rule you want to use
-> click save and your endpoint gets automatically ratelimited

> Plenty of countries[..] don't have these extremely long drawn-out campaigns. Also, in most countries candidates also don't spend a fucktillion dollars on campaigning – another thing that has gotten rather out of hand in the US.

Presumably you mean in Europe, but most countries around the world are parliamentary. They have no system of checks and balances due to legislative capture; the Executive really has no power and can be trivially forced to resign. There's no real point in running a huge campaign for a figurehead that doesn't have any real independence.

Plus, it would go without mentioning that the USA is the world's largest economy, so it's not surprising a lot of money would be diverted to elections with economic consequences.

There is an old German idiom for deceiving or defrauding somebody that roughly translates to "faking an X for a U". It's origin is people turning "v" into "x" on bar tabs or records. Given that this made it into an idiom and far outlived the use of roman numerals I assume this used to be a very relatable experience once upon a time.

I think the point is that at least people voted to make Biden their candidate.

Now those votes mean nothing and someone else will pick their candidate for them instead.

Games draw every single object on the screen every frame. They don't lag, quite the opposite in fact!
I mean to me it seems like that argument can be exactly applied to maximum age which makes it similar consideration.

If you're too old and your memory is faltering, you're "loosing experience". If your conginitive function is declining, your maturity is also essentially declining, all but in pedantic "maturity=age(ageism)" sense

Ich weiß von alters her, daß man entfernten Freunden gar nicht schreibt, wenn man darauf warten will, bis man ihnen etwas zu schreiben hat.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

i know for a long time that you don't ever write to distant friends if you want to wait until you have something worth writing about.

i found this in a collection of quotes. i don't know if it is verified as genuine, but that doesn't matter. the sentiment expressed makes sense either way.

i sent that quote to a friend that i haven't talked to in a while, followed by "how are you?" which then led to a nice conversation catching up.

the thing is that doing this is a lot easier than suddenly talking to someone because you actually want something from them.

compare for example the discussions here on HN on how we need to build a network to help us find jobs. the part that i am struggling with is that i don't usually keep in touch often enough with the people in my network so that asking anyone to help me find a job feels rather awkward. i'd rather just message people out of the blue for no reason at all instead of waiting until i seriously need their help.
On one hand this really sucks, particularly for newcomers starting from scratch, as now only the larger companies that already scraped the web can carry on in this vein, finding ways to improve the architecture to better utilize the data they already have. On the other hand, I see this being a forcing function to move away from generative AI sooner, which I've always considered to be a dead end for AGI, to future architectures that train on data similar to how humans learn, ie raw audio, video, etc streams from the environment.
I can memorize and recite a poem, but in the context of a scientific textbook, neither I nor an AI will remember the actual words used, just key facts like E = mc^2.

If you limit your critique to the AI's ability to recite a poem or lyrics verbatim, then you have a point. However, I used the example of a scientific textbook for that exact reason. To the extent that the AI only paraphrases or cites facts from, it's not a copy.

The derivative work issue is more interesting. The AI can generate a derivative work, but won't do so without a prompt asking for one. If you ask for an Oz-like bedtime story, you should get an Anxious Lynx and not a Cowardly Lion.

If you ask for a story with Oz characters, the result will be a derivative work, but it will include your prompt. The work was not in the AI, though the ability to make it was. In this sense, the AI is more like an instrument that can be used to violate copyright law, like an employee who has read Oz would be. It's hard to find a close inanimate analogue, but it's probably on the same shelf as search engines and typewriters.

The concepts in Seeing Like A State are very relevant to programmers and to anyone trying to “change the world” with technology. One of the main points is that for a state to manage many people it tends to use power (hard and soft) to homogenize the populace. My belief is that tech necessarily does the same thing. Everyone in your app has permissions defined by some enum, a limited number of actions available, content moderation machinery.

This has effects that are inescapable, especially in the fields of medicine, mental health, education, social engagement. Tech makes our levers to move the Earth more efficient, but at the cost of a lack of diversity of thought, lifestyle, and value.

Because it would simply perpetuate the current copyright system which primarily rewards the large distribution companies disproportionately to the creators, especially smaller ones, while doing little to alleviate the effects on the job market for said creatives, in fact enhancing this effect by effectively feeding even more of the value into existing license holders as opposed to those creating new works (now instead of new works with existing franchises primarily rewarding those who own the franchises, this would effectively apply to all new works, if generative AI were to become mandatory to compete).
