"I think this piece of art is overrated as it has comparatively little content for the amount of interest it generates" is very much not a non-opinion.

You're not offering any reason why I should form my opinion in any way other than the way I do, you're just trying to invalidate my opinion because you think how I formed it is wrong, again without offering any reason why that is so. Yes, perhaps if both your and my opinions were informed by the same facts we would agree. But so what? That doesn't invalidate my opinion, and I'm not going to shut up. I'm just going to keep calling out low-effort garbage when I see it. I don't care if it frustrates you. If that lowers your opinion of me I'm fine with that; I also don't have a high opinion of the people who think this sort of trash is deep.
Some feedback:

1. It will be a lot better if the Summary popup can be stretched to full-screen with font size controls.

2. There needs to be a feature to browse papers based on subjects and other applicable categories.

3. There need to be playback controls (pause, rewind, etc.) for audio narration of the summaries.

4. Themes customization and dark mode will also be great features to have.

Sometimes it does, yeah. It's not unheard of for companies to deliberately operate at a loss in order to drive out their competition, then raise prices again. This is known as "predatory pricing".
This is a fairly common scenario and one that we had in mind when building the NAT traversal implementation. The short answer is that you wouldn't need to sign out of Firezone when in the office -- the connection should hairpin off the nearest common router and go directly to the SMB share in this case.
I don't know, it doesn't sound wild at all to me. Human languages are very imprecise, vague and error-tolerant, which is the opposite of an output format like JSON. So the a model can't do these two things well at the same time is quite an intuitive conclusion.

The wild part is that a model trained with so much human language text can still outputs mostly compilable code.
>>The use of sexualised and racist tropes, and critiquing women’s physicality, are known strategies of gendered disinformation campaigns, which seek to undermine and degrade women on the basis of their identity.

Not kind, but whats the play? No off-color jokes allowed on the internet?

>> Some Reform-supporting accounts shared claims that the attempt was orchestrated by top Democrats such as Biden, or by the CIA in collusion with Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and Mike Pence.

Sounds crazy, but who is to arbitrate?

It SEEMS like, now that Progressivism is losing control of the microphone, it's suddenly a problem.

X is amazing for the speed at which information, true and false, can be communicated. Put the power to the people.
ZSA Loves: Plasticity
I have never heard anyone in real life call it X.

I do agree that the headline shouldn’t be editorialized, though. “X (formerly Twitter)” at most.
Is there an agent framework that lives up to the hype?

Where you specify a top-level objective, it plans out those objectives, it selects a completion metric so that it knows when to finish, and iterates/reiterates over the output until completion?
I have been enjoying Threads lately. It's not perfect, but it feels about as close as possible to a sweet spot where 1) it's mainstream enough to get a variety of people 2) the company behind it is actively investing in it and improving it.

(You don't need to respond to point out various flaws with Threads. Yes, we know)

Edit: sheez, no need to get all offended, Twitter fans. I just posted about my experience with a competing product that has been enjoyable for me.
Both names are linkbait. I think 'Twitter' is less misleading than 'X', so it wins the guideline on points.

Not saying it's a strong case, just that it tilts that way. Others would call it differently and that's always the case with a close call.

Just because you buy something doesn't mean you get to change popular usage by decree. There's a whiff of corporatism about that which sticks in my craw.

(I am not, god help us, making any implicit point about the muskwars.)
Im excited to see what happens with the humanoid.

Software has been holding back robotics for a while.

Tesla pouring money training humanoids with state of the art neural nets could lead to something disruptive.
would maintaining a map of products product_x[supermarket] with 2-3 values work? I don't suspect that supermarkets would be very keen to change the name (but they might play other dirty games)

Oh ok. I’ve been reading a lot of zscaler zpa docs at work and didn’t come away with that impression at all. (The Zscalar docs are awful though).
That's the safest, but it runs up against HN's 80 char limit on titles and also feels clumsy and formalistic.
Performance of a work was not considered publication for copyright purposes. A copyright notice on published sheet music is how you got protection.

Sound recordings were not eligible for copyright protection at all until 1972.
So if an application uses a 3rd party provider for authentication (Google, Github, etc) is this no longer considered "self-hosted", despite it running on user's hardware?

I'm curious to know where you draw your imaginary line.
Considering Elon's previous behavior at X...I hope his lawyers were smart enough to demand cash in advance.
An excuse, no, but maybe an explanation.
Food service needs a lot of people to work the 2 hour lunch shift from 11-1 and then go home. You get out of the house, get to talk to real people. Doctors have noticed that people who sit around doing nothing tend to die earlier than those who stay busy, and people who talk to others also do better, so that 2 hour shift could add years to your lifespan. That you get some extra spending cash is a nice bonus, but not why you do it. (at 16 you do it because they are about all that will hire you and you need then money)
Google is paying Apple $20 billion for $60 billion worth of traffic. Apple said it would cost $6 billion per year to build and run a search engine. I don't think it would take much of an ad platform to pull in enough money to make it work for Apple and their shareholders.

It all comes down to whether or not Apple sees search as a key part of their phones and so far they haven't. FWIW, I think they're right - it's not a key part the same way Maps is, for example.
I always wondered why all these sales emails use exactly the same language. Right now my inbox is filled with “quick questions”. now I have an answer: apparently people write whole books on individual word choices.

It seems the sales industry would benefit from considering the possibility of heterogeneous effects. I can see these techniques working for some, but they are off-putting for me and are a great way to get immediately blocked.
You are much more likely to die in a commute on your way to work than you are from some drug dealer.
Food, OTC and prescription medications, and urgent personal product are best not fulfilled by Amazon, a corporation that promotes fake ratings, fake products, no-name brands, and dangerous products.
They should be forced to keep it up until proven guilty in a court of law, no?

Yeah, I think people just don't fully realise how powerful hardware has become. You don't need complicated tools if you need to transfer even significantly large amounts of data, since you can have hundreds of gigabits of network capacity on a single server, so unless you're truly large you probably can get away with using vanilla rsync for file transfers for example :).
j-maffe, it looks to me like you are being disingenuous, because in reply to your earlier comment above, I had quoted the Wikipedia definition of monopoly. my entire subsequent argument was based on that, as you well know. if you want to try to redefine terms, or move goalposts, feel free to do so, but I will not participate in an argument based on such behaviour.

to repeat, quoting from the Wikipedia definition of monopoly:

>A monopoly (from Greek μόνος, mónos, 'single, alone' and πωλεῖν, pōleîn, 'to sell'), as described by Irving Fisher, is a market with the "absence of competition", creating a situation where a specific person or enterprise is the only supplier of a particular thing.

(italics mine)

can you really not see the difference between 90% search share held by Google, which means 10% share held by others, vs. absence of competition? it is blindingly obvious.

I am leaving this thread. I don't argue with people who either don't get it, or seem to be operating under false pretences.
You'd have to explain that to the shareholders who choose the board of directors...
> Computer programs that other computer programs use all require a detailed functional spec.

And yet most programs that are used by other programs do not provide a detailed functional spec! How curious.

Most computer programs do not a formal, detailed, functional spec. They simply are what they are. Furthermore, the type of specs we are talking about are incomplete and purposefully leave a lot of room open to implementers to make different choices. Their choices are unspecified but fully relied upon.

Hyrum's Law: With a sufficient number of users of an API, it does not matter what you promise in the contract: all observable behaviors of your system will be depended on by somebody.

std::deque has an underdefined spec such that the MSVC implementation meets the spec but is utterly worthless. And it can't be fixed because that would break the ABI.

In this thread I'm specifically talking about the C++ standard library specification and implementations. Whether other software benefits from a detailed spec or not is outside the scope of this conversation. I maintain that the C++ standards committee should provide a std::deque implementation and not a spec. Thus far no one has even attempted to argue why it's better as a spec. Womp womp.
But then, like with all of Elon's companies, the question is: who's the (serious) competition?

Rethorical question... There is none.
I liked this post a lot.

The introduction already pulls of some original and interesting questions + observations, even if the subject matter feels like an often-discussed meta-topic at first.

Great use of language (I wish I could write like this!) and the article has an ideal length.

The intro asks some open but pragmatic questions and includes a real-world anecdote.

Then the article expands on every point in insightful ways.

I feel some of this is often also discussed in terms of FE/BE divide (and within BE, I guess BE/infrastructure).
Congratulations on making a total stranger laugh their heart out!

By slapping an extension on X that filters out everything but my white list, it has become a pleasant place. No bots, no ads, no hottest takes from around the web. Just posts from people I want to follow, all high signal to noise. I doubt Elon would approve though.
wow! great news!
Unfortunate that by flooding twitter with divisive content, those responsible have caused people to trust it much less.
I am honestly not sure if Elon set the chain reaction here. Twitter was pretty bad from that perspective even before he took over. The change seems to be more related to the new and exciting ways in which humans choose to fool one another ( now its AI enabled bots ). Add to this US presidential campaign and all of a sudden some of the noise is not that surprising. Messy times ahead.
I don't think the fair source is trying to re-define open-source. These companies have acknowledge that people are passionate about keeping the term "open source" true to how the open source initiative defined it, and have chosen to create a new label in which these new licenses can be described by. Creating a distinction between companies who don't give public access to code at all, companies which share code but under licenses which protect their interests for a finite period of time, and "true" open source licenses.
Yeah, have to say it can be annoying when titles get editorialized, and even more annoying when the editorialized title is badly written!

Note to the submitter, HN FAQ says:

> Otherwise please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait; don't editorialize.
Obvious followup: can you share more about your whitelist and how it works?
I bet they spend 95% of their time in agile refinement meetings.
I think there's definitely a "tried and true" and "if it aint broke don't fix it" mentality. Combine that with the fear of trying something new in the face of the FAA and regulatory barrier, many will say it's better to just take the risk on older stuff than make something new and better
To this date, ChatGPT Code Interpreter is still the most impressive implementation of this pattern that I've seen.

Give it a task, it writes code, runs the code, gets errors, fixes bugs, tries again generally until it succeeds.

That's over a year old at this point, and it's not clear to me if it counts as an "agent" by many people's definitions (which are often frustratingly vague).
I would check out this company, Swarms (https://github.com/kyegomez/swarms) who's working with enterprises to integrate multi-agents. But definitely a great point to focus on, the research paper mentions that the scaling of performance reduces with complexity of the task, which is definitely true for SWE
Go ahead and complete the thought in the context of the comment I was replying to and review if your "dunk" is conflicting with the point I'm making...

Companies inconvenience and put their employees in danger (of varying levels) at the whims of management. They will sign a lease in a high-crime neighborhood to get a tax break, they will force you to come to the office because the CEO loves and misses the "energy" of having butts in seats and the employees will be forced to take on the non-zero probability of being involved in a traffic accident - its not nothing; auto insurance companies sent refunds during lockdowns because of this.
I set up a site around 20 years ago - now on https://whatisbifidusregularis.org/ - and got threatened with a lawsuit by Dannon / Danone. I had to give them the first domain because it was a trademark (but not before I'd set up a 301 redirect and let Google catch up with the change). That was in more innocent pre-DCMA times when corporations wouldn't really know how to contact an ISP and get something banned without getting lawyers involved. I enjoyed a realtively long email correspondence with what I hope was a very expensive lawyer from Danone.

Edit: I set up the site on bifidusdigestivum.com after getting too irritated by adverts where they talked about their amazing bacteria "Bifidus Digesivum", which was just so ridiculous I found out as much as I could about it and wrote about it in as SEO-friendly a way as possible so anyone searching for it found my site. It's had something like 1.5m views since then, and still gets 400-500 visits a month. Not huge in the grand scheme of things, but it still gives me a chuckle every now and then when I remember it.
A CEO that came from the fashion industry is the wrong pick for a technology company IMO.

Apple removed ports and physical buttons to favor design over functionality only to bring them back years later.
That's a confusing name choice, I expected this to be some kind of scheme implementation based on the existing language F#
By using JSON mode, GPT-4{o} has been able to do this reliably for months (100k+ calls).

We use GPT-4o to build dynamic UI+code[0], and almost all of our calls are using JSON mode. Previously it mostly worked, but we had to do some massaging on our end (backtick removal, etc.).

With that said, this will be great for GPT-4o-mini, as it often struggles/forgets to format things as we ask.

Note: we haven't had the same success rate with function calling compared to pure JSON mode, as the function calling seems to add a level of indirection that can reduce the quality of the LLMs output YMMV.

Anyhow, excited for this!

Amazon Fresh isn't (FBA) Amazon because they don't rely on outside sellers.

Furthermore, when I ordered sliced cheese in an AF order, it arrived completely moldy... like olive drab colored completely. Amazon Fresh clearly doesn't respect cold chain or consumer safety at all.
Show HN: Resolve AWS SecretManager secrets as env vars
Frustrated by the official way to resolve secretmanager secrets in Lambda functions using the official Lambda extension (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/systems-manager/latest/userguide...), I built a more user-friendly way, which requires no code changes to the Lambda function code.
I never poisoned data, but I have implemented systems where clients who made requests too quickly got served data from a snapshot that only updated every 15 minutes.
This is targeted for enterprise/cloud/hyperscale customers and density is often a big deal in those applications. I know that 61.44TB SSD have been selling very well exactly for this reason.
It's impossible to be ideologically pure with every single decision. We live in a messy world.

In this case, I think he could be forgiven for (a) wanting to use his existing skillset to get his site online quickly and reliably and/or (b) actually believing that Cloudflare—based on previous actions—would robustly defend his site.
JSON is a sub-set of what GBNF can do, so there are still advantages to that approach. But even GBNF doesn’t go far enough. Ever try to restrict a model to a single sentence?

root ::= \" \" item{{{min_count},{max_count}}}

item ::= [A-Z] [^\\r\\n\\x0b\\x0c\\x85\\u2028\\u2029.?!]+ [a-z] (\". \" | \"? \" | \"! \")

This kinda works if you don't mind no abbreviations, but you can't do something like this with JSON grammars afaik.
Cloudflare loses DMCA safe harbor protections if they do not follow the law and disable content after receiving a notification with all the required elements. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the DMCA doesn't say anything about verifying the merits of the takedown. (Setting aside the practicality of having an expert on copyright law review each notice even for customers who aren't paying anything)

In the case, if they had ignored the notification and CloudStrike sued anyway they could be stuck as a defendant on that lawsuit.
VNC doesn't even share your screen, it creates its own offscreen screen and doesn't even load your desktop, and uses some unusable minimalist window manager with a stupid X cursor. Yeah I could probably figure out how to get it to work but it's a chore. Terrible product design.

I've been wanting to create something WebRTC based, I'm not happy with either VNC or RDP.
Surely you understand that if you have two systems that depend on millions of variables, and you compare 1 single variable, you cant assign the outcomes being different to that one variable?

I mean, maybe you don't understand really basic critical thinking, maybe my bar is too high here?
It would be surprising if you had a prior Fall 24 batch....

All I can glean from this is that joining a YC Batch gives you access to a time machine.
That was the plan. Destroy the public square. Destroy people's ability to communicate without corporate mediation. A (imperfectly) neutral conversational space became Elon's personal amplification platform overnight. He 'deregulated' it for his own divisive political interests. A preview of the Trumpism he openly supports.

I feel we are absolute fools for letting this happen, but it aligns with the interests of the late American Empire oligarchy, so what can do.

Elon bought the information space so he could trash it.
> No off-color jokes allowed on the internet?

Yes.

It isn't exclusively a left/progressive thing but these people are basically plagued by a worldview that doesn't really allow opposing views to be organic, and similarly cannot handle any even slightly organised movement of move than 2 people not being setup by some shadowy organisation.

Every person who disagrees is evidence that the future may not belong to them, so this must be crushed (the equivalent aphorism for the right looks mostly into the past)
I'm pretty happy with Tailscale for private access.
One way to address this in Elasticsearch would be to put each customers documents in their own index. Other than that, as far as I can tell it's not smart enough to apply filters first.

Well, you have Cognition AI and Devin that became a recent unicorn startup (partnerships with Microsoft and stuff) but true, I can't think of an agent that actually lives up to the hype (heard Devin wasn't great).
> Not kind, but whats the play? No off-color jokes allowed on the internet?

People tend not to enjoy jokes that punch down. Nor do they like jokes that reinforce negative stereotypes, especially bigoted negative stereotypes.
Can’t you just using the “Following” list for that instead of the “For You” list?
Is this actually true? I was under the impression that the DMCA came first and then similar stuff was put into WIPO treatries but not necessarily ratified or fully implemented in the domestic copyright law of other countries.
You don't. The idea itself is deeply flawed. Just let people do the work.
This whole thing is risible. And made worse by this[0].

Is the JSON actually being fed into the LLM's context or is it still being converted into typescript?

The previous setup didn't allow for custom types, only objects/string/num/bool.

Are the enums put into context or purely used for constrained sampling?
