Countries can still just as well step in now, there is no window that has passed.

However, swift shutdowns not involving a court would be the wrong way to do it - as wrong as the DMCA is. All that is needed is appropriate consequences for bad behavior, including those shielding bad actors.

> My first thought was to use AWS, since that's what I'm most familiar with, but looking at the prices for a moderately-powerful EC2 instance (i.e. 4 cores and 8GB of RAM) it was going to cost much more than I was comfortable to spend for a side project.

Yep, AWS is hugely overrated and overpriced.
I agree 100%. Getting a Gibson was also a game changer for me. Today there is cheaper stuff that is also good quality (but you gotta dig), but back in the day you needed the kind of gear used by pro musicians to actually go the extra mile.

And it's a good observation about bespoke guitars: I feel like the problem is people trying to go beyond that, with the illusion that "even more expensive" will be even better. Then they start buying things that are hella expensive but don't give much more (due to diminishing returns, or sometimes they actually suck, like bad handmade instruments), or doing things like collecting 20, 30, 40 overdrive pedals just to find the "perfect one".
You should think of the package metadata as originating from the publisher, not from the registry. Aside from the name, version, and (generated) dist and maintainers fields, I don't think any of it is even supposed to be validated by the registry?

Agreed the website UX is confusing and could be better but in general package metadata is just whatever the publisher put there and it's up to you to verify if you care about veracity.
I found it really funny. It's obviously probably useless for actual medieval music[0] but I think it can find it's users in bardcore or dungeon synth circles.

You can definitely recreate this just by collecting appropriate VSTs and sample libraries, even probably by just loading some "medieval samples" to some groovebox.

But if I got this second hand on cheap price I would definitely make some fun with it even if it has somewhat cryptic labels.

But who would use those spam packages in their project? Don't don't do anything.
I see several comments calling this piece "fluffy" without much real insight - I have to respectfully disagree - I'm 48 and wrote my first code at 8, still write code for my self at 48, have managed teams, held all manner of roles and done some startups. This article is solid gold.

I'm surprised people think this article doesn't have much important to say. I suspect their code probably crashes a lot in production, and will still kill many startups or otherwise end up destroying significant amounts of shareholder value.

They think the article is banal and obvious.
They will not really take the key insights to heart and truly live it.

Crowdstrike is the perfect example of this!!!

And for every crowdstrike there are tons of startups that don't make the news but ends up burning their early adopter users through inability to deal with bugs properly, delay their own success unnecessarily or even turns what would have been massive business successes into technical morasses. Imagine failing to capture your businesses full potential because of a bad approach to software defects!
It's pretty unlikely that it's around the corner. Intel uses their own foundry and designs and AMD uses their own designs with TSMC as the foundry. If it's a foundry issue then Apple would be in hot water right now since they use the cutting edge. So I think AMD is in the clear.
It's baffling to be honest, since it feels like there's less feedback the further you get into the interview process, not more. About 40-50% of jobs I've failed to get to the first stage in have sent rejection emails in at least some form, yet somehow far less of those where I've reached the second, third or even fourth stage in have sent a rejection letter.

That doesn't make sense to me. You'd think candidates you don't even care to interview would be the ones you'd ignore/ghost, not the ones who are probably in the last 5 or so candidates for the role.

But hey, I guess that sort of strange behaviour isn't entirely new. I still remember getting ghosted by a company that gave me two phone interviews and two in person interviews in the office.
This is exactly how you get hosting providers threatening to nuke your server if you don't respond in an unreasonably short time even though there is nothing actually wrong with it. No thanks.
This is confusing to read

If I agree with your definition of hallucinations in the context of LLMs... Then isn't your second paragraph literally just a way to artificially increase the likelihood of them occurring?

You seem to differentiate between a hallucination caused by poisoning the dataset vs a hallucination caused by correct data, but can you honestly make such a distinction considering just how much data goes into these models?
A good read is "Billion Dollar Whale", which details the 1MDB scandal that actually funded the Wolf of Wall Street movie.

Jho Low scammed ~$5 Billion, and used some of the funds to befriend Leonardo DiCaprio (by throwing lavish parties), as well as fund the movie.
It’s worse than that. They updated the schema, and tested it with previous data that does not exercise the new parameter. Tests are passing. When they go and actually use the new parameter, it crashes.

The new schema was improperly tested (among a list of other failures).
The text was super distracting. They say "don't do anything else, focus on the picture" then bombard me with text messages.
"toxic information" translated to plain English: "information we don't like and want to see globally suppressed because it doesn't suit our devious interests"
Semi-related: I guess some companies have already started augmenting their search with the use of LLMs. If you've worked on a similar project, what is your (very) high-level architecture? Did you see a noticeable difference in relevance and query time?
Have you filed a complaint with the appropriate authorities? Citizens being blocked from government infrastructure shouldn't just be accepted as the way things are.

There was recently a post and discussion on this very topic here on HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40954679

Seems complicated, indeed.
It's a fucking nightmare where you're begging on your hands and knees for people to give you money. I was ok at it when I was a 360 recruiter (the sales half was opening up positions that I would then recruit for), but no matter I framed it, to me it always felt like begging.

The office culture is half/half trying to wokeify your sales by being "not that kind of sales guy" like the line you quoted, while still kinda worshiping people like Jordan Belfort and internalizing the highest levels of hustle culture.

I became an engineer and wrote that part of my life off. I still sometimes wake up an hour before my alarm with thoughts spinning through my head of how I could have sold better. Ugh.
It always circles back to "follow the money":

- the system could theoretically trace the inputs, but then IP lawyers would eat company alive; pretending the corpus isn't pirated, so it can be cheap.

- the system could verify and re-check, but that would require a massive compute increase; spouting bullshit, so it can be cheap

- indeed a lot of answers around here go with "let's waste money by throwing it at the system until a human likes the result" - not cheap, but profitable for the provider
It should be obvious to anyone that “confidential info” isn't supposed to be made universally accessible…
TLDR: some bugs can only happen in a real production environment, so expect them and be ready when deploying. Thinking your deploy will be ok because staging env passed all tests is delusional.

Light doesn’t normally cut through solids, doesn’t mean lasers aren’t a useful or unexpected technology.
Probably less carcinogenic.
I suspect that is yet another case of "TL;DR", people just grab on to something they heard about or read the first sentence of?

The AGPL information page clearly states:

"if you run a modified program on a server and let other users communicate with it there, your server must also allow them to download the source code corresponding to the modified version running there."

I'm not the sharpest tool, but I interpret that as all about the code. The license is not a tool I can use to prevent competition.
I think the comment they're responding to might clarify the point they're trying to make. Not capturing, storing, and retaining information tends to go directly against their stated mission.
People make some good tracks with the OP-1.

I think dipplo (a big edm artist) used the OP-1 in his live sets for a while.
That's just "rm -r node_modules && npm install".

Aside from needlessly taking a long time, it also means we're back to "if something goes wrong we're left with an inconsistent node_modules".
At first I thought this was an Aprils Fools' Day joke then I looked in the calendar and saw it was too late.

Is there any functional difference to the EP-133? Interestingly It seems that they have different operating systems.

also the fact that an airport is usually not where you live or work, and in the U.S. that means you're still adding to traffic pre/post flight with an additional need for a car on both ends of the trip.
The 10-segment digits are very cool.
Through OpenZiti into the mix too - https://openziti.io/. Its open source and was designed from the ground up with zero trust, SDN, and deny-by-default principles. It also includes SDKs to allow developers to embed ZTN as part of the SDLC. We also built zrok (https://zrok.io/) on top of it, as a demonstration of a 'ziti-native' app, and being a better Ngrok.
> you burn basically the same number of calories per day sitting on your butt as you do being quite physically active.

I think I’m missing your point. How do you explain weight loss from exercising?
Here [0] is the paper in question, it has a chart that shows the reflection rate of this one at around 0.3 - 2%; the paper itself has the following quote for the competitors:

> Far lower reflectance values have been achieved with materials containing aligned carbon nanotubes (CNT), for example a low-density CNT array (0.045%),[11] the coating Vantablack (0.035%)[7] and a CNT-metal foil (0.005%).[12] The current holder of the “record” for a low reflectivity material (<0.0002%) is an ion-track micro-textured polymer with anti-backscatter matrix.[13]

So they're arguing that it's on-par with Vantablack but not the newer materials.

We should mutualize scraping efforts, creating a sort of Wikipedia of scraped data. I bet a ton of people and cool applications would benefit from it.
It is not fixed as Intel hasn't published their microcode update, which is lowering the voltages, yet.
> I guess the confusion arises because C++ people tend to assume that anywhere Rust differs from the practice in the C++ community it's a mistake, even though that's often because C++ made the wrong choice?

Funny, I hear that a lot from the Rust folks.
They do if they are building it into their product/commercial offering. Less so if its a direct and internal usage.
I dunno, it looks like they're creating carbon nanostructures; while wood carbon / soot seems fairly benign, I still wouldn't want to breathe it.

This for example starts with "you expressed interest in xyz stock" or however, I can't exactly remember, but basically it's the followup call to their list of prequalified leads generated from the calls in this article.
Yeah I am confused. The hedge fund or market maker is literally all those people in one room.
Solr will work perfectly if you want to do a standard search (db, shop) or need a customized approach, like custom transformers, ranking, etc. However, if you aim for "something that just works good enough" and has much better scaling capability and tooling, you can't beat ES/OpenSearch here (Solr scaling is much more manual process than ES/OS). And if you want to stay away from ElasticSearch drama, stick to OpenSearch - they are shipping excellent stuff these days.
The irony of posting that on threads.
For Germany, below the prices it says "some links may be sponsored", but it does not mark which ones. Is that even legal? Also there seem to be very few shops, are maybe all the links sponsored? Also idealo.de finds lower prices.
If my understanding is correct, Nxylon is lighter than Vantablack (in terms of weight) but reflects slightly more light. This means that it is less effective than Vantablack at absorbing light.
Haha all we have to do is agree on the format, right?
By interface, I meant API. (The “I” in API)

I should’ve been more clear.
This misses the point. There is a scarce amount of Microsoft shares, but we don't talk about the scarcity of the shares driving the price, because that's not the reason that the stock has traded upwards. You can have scarcity on all kinds of resources - hell, this comment is scarce, it's one of a kind - but that doesn't mean it drives any kind of demand. All of this is econ 101.
The Apple UX isn't much better than the often criticized Linux UX. In fact, sometimes it is worse (maximizing windows comes to mind). An opinionated system can be ok if the designer's opinion happens to match yours. Otherwise it can cause frustration.

It seems new to me that the safety margins are so narrow that a microcode bug can result in voltages that physically damage the CPU. Assuming that's mostly driven by the current small feature sizes and high clock rates, that would mean everyone has this risk.

Show HN: TenDocs – AI Powered Document Template Generator
Indie Developer, First Time Showing HN

I've always been underwhelmed by the document templating functionality in Office. There's no "out-of-the-box" solution that gets you over that "blank page" hurdle when getting started on a new document (not since Clippy anyway).

Those first couple of words, and setting up a logical structure, can take as much time as the actual writing.

So, I built something.

It's a tool that creates Word templates based on brief descriptions of your requirements getting you quickly up and running.

How it works:
1. You describe the document you need in 240 characters or less (e.g., "Business Plan for a SaaS marketplace selling bulk cosmetics directly to consumers. The audience is prospective investors, so the financial case is crucial.").
2. This description is processed by the latest AI models to create a table of contents, example text, and instructions for each section.
3. Then it's compiled into a Word document with standard formatting, helping you get right past that "blank page" stage.

Be great to get some people trying it out.

This tool is part of a broader collection of AI-enabled document automation tools (Compare, Summarise, Convert and Template) that I'll be expanding over time.
I would add, doing Zero Trust Networking properly means deny by default (VPNs are open by default), service based access (not whole host or network), microsegmentation (not whole network), and least privilege. You should also use posture checks to ensure the end device is compliant and personally I prefer 'authenticate before connect' with outbound only connections from source and destination.

Note, I am biased though as I work on an open source zero trust networking project - https://openziti.io/.
You don’t really get at what you think the substance of this piece is. It’d be helpful if you pointed that out instead of just going on about how phenomenal it is.
Some stores don’t have an interactive website but instead send out magazines to your email with news for the week.

How would one scrape those? Anyone experienced?
Beautiful idea.

My take on it: I find it difficult to generalize the notion of layer removal when the bit depth of that layer goes to zero. It's wouldn't be straight forward although the authors provide equation 5. It feels like lot of information is missing in this work to even reproduce it. And authors do only 1 case study.

I believe some implementation is required to understand the authors completely. Example, optimizer modification for layer when it is removed in training.
Lets assume You got 4TB 6TB 5TB and 8TB drives ... just do a 4TB 1st primary partition on each of them and create a ZFS pool from that - I do not understand where the 'pain' is ...

You can then add 1TB 2nd partition on 6TB and 5TB and 8TB drives and add another ZFS VDEV to the same pool - or create another pool.

... and You can also add 3rd partition.

Also its really easy to get used drives in the same or similar size ... unless you live in some really 'hard to live' part of the world.
it was just as inadequate at the time as it is now

> Lee became Dr. Fermi’s sole doctoral student in theoretical physics, meeting with him every week. It was an extraordinary learning experience, partly because of Dr. Fermi’s teaching technique, which Dr. Lee explained in the 2007 interview with the Nobel Institute. “‘You see,’ he said, ‘there are things that I would like to know,’” Dr. Lee recalled Dr. Fermi saying. “‘Lee, why don’t you look up and give me a lecture next week.’” “I was very happy to teach Fermi,” Dr. Lee added. “Of course, this is an excellent way of building the student’s confidence. And then he would ask me questions and I would have to answer.”

Was fascinated by this. His advisor, Fermi, made Lee teach him stuff, not the other way around!
I refer to doing service based connections, abstracted away from whether its DNS, IP or something else. To do this you really need a private DNS function and to operate with attribute based access controls.

Yes, they've changed specifications before. Y2K being one example. Artificial seems strong though. I was trying to explain that a single airline can't fix this solely in-house. It would have to be an industry change across airlines, government agencies, third party vendors, etc. So it's not artificial, but it's not trivial either.
This is happening cross nationally - and very few nations gave out covid payments similar to the US.

Side node - this is just a strange lens, for most people in Ireland (where we did receive covid payments) they were making up for work which had evaporated. Why is it always assumed to be additional to income in the US?
Let me be the first one then - I am fully content on living in a 40-60m2 space with my partner and two cats. Considering we never lived in anything bigger this size is perfect for us, easy to clean and still enough space to live.
I don't think anything in the C parts of the C++ standard library throws its own exceptions. However, it's not completely unreasonable for a third party C library to use a C++ library underneath, and that might propagate any exceptions that the C++ side throws. This would be especially true if the C library were designed with some kind of plugin support, and someone supplied a C++ plugin.

No, it's more than that. Did you read the documentation page linked in the comment you replied to?

> But what about after the command has run?

If you munge around in node_modules after a successful `npm ci`, that's on you. If you run scripts that do, that's on you. If you depend on packages that run such scripts, that's on you.

> What, you mean I'm supposed to audit my dependencies myself? That's too much work!

Yes, as part of code review we expect our devs to manually inspect every change in the lockfile for anything that matters or might start to, which includes most things. No, you can't outsource that task to an AI, regardless of how well-performing it appears.

Hey Jeff! Yes, I remember your review on the Reform as well. It is not a direct replacement for something like the MacBook (I'm using a MBP as I type this reply because I have a meeting in an hour and need the camera etc for Zoom...) - either in direct usability of the keyboard or the performance etc. It's a lovely machine though and I'm finding uses for it in commuting and other places.
