Based on popular pre-trained models like GPT-4, Claude Sonnet, and Gemini 1.5, we've built several agents designed to mimic the behaviors and habits of the experts on our team.

Our idea is straightforward: after a decade of auditing code and writing exploits, we've accumulated a wealth of experience. So, why not teach these agents to replicate what we do during bug hunting and exploit writing? Of course, the LLMs themselves aren't sufficient on their own, so we've integrated various program analysis techniques to augment the models and help the agents understand more complex and esoteric code.
> A majority (53%) of Gen Zers surveyed considered influencing a respectable career choice, and a similar percentage would be willing to leave their current jobs if they could sustain their lifestyle as an influencer.

There's some wiggle-room on what "their lifestyle" means, but I doubt that the positive answer is biased toward e.g. HENRYs, and in fact it's likely biased in the other direction. If UBI can match whatever their current lifestyle is (or even exceed it, e.g. paying for a personal living space instead of roommates), then these people are essentially saying that they'd be happy not to work.
People who work in factories also suffer debilitating health issues.
Yep, seems to be a drawback of the punch needle embroidery technique, though, not just this specific automation of it. From a light skimming of a couple of articles even hand-done work in this style lacks a lock stitch and relies on the friction of the fabric and tightly packed loops.

Though that could make for an interesting ephemeral art piece, particularly paired with generated/algorithmic designs—a plotter that embroiders a piece and then unwinds it once finished, repeating in a loop and accumulating wear and knots and flaws.

In regard to local issues being way more impactful in one's life:

If one is from, or has close contacts in or from the regions affected by geopolitics -- then this is unfortunately very much not the case.

As disappointed as I am with local politicians -- they aren't bombing my friends into the ground, or forcing them to move halfway across the planet indefinitely. Or causing these to deal with significant emotional anguish, even if they aren't forced to move, or directly under threat.

While a solid contingent on HN regularly either apologies for / minimizes their actions, or just seems to shoot from its hip based on their hunch as to what is happening, without any indication of having done much research or questioning their sources. Or even just thinking logically about the various narratives they're reading. For most of them it seems to be more about ideological abstractions than anything real and concrete, in any case.

So that, plus the simple fact that this is a global community is why geopolitics floats to the top, as it were.

Whether talking about it online is productive or helpful in any way is another matter altogether. Turns out it's generally not easy to talk about these things in person, even with people one knows rather well (as most of the time they'd prefer to talk about pretty much anything but "the situation").

Being as the "shit" in question is all too real for them.

Yes, the government is powerful, but you ignored the 2nd part of my comment which addressed the concern you're repeating again.

For me a knowledge graph is a complex network.

When you try to grasp any complex topic your brain starts to build and connect a fuzzy network of topics and their respective positive or negative correlations and of course the weights between the connections.

Once you have unfuzzied the picture in your head you realize that the network is active and dynamic and that this network has different "modes" of operation and that some weights and correlations can change over time, while others are always static.

Mastering the dynamics of the knowledge graph is the final step in understanding it.
> As far as I understand the federal reserve is not technically part of the government but a private institution.

It's established by Federal law; its Chairman is appointed by the President. It walks like a duck and quacks like a duck; it's a duck.
It looks incredibly similar. It plays somewhat differently - the controls are quite sluggish for me, the jumping and climbing is a bit clumsier, and the grenades change the dynamic. But the influence is very clear!

In my high school (late 1980s, early 1990s) we had mostly Apple IIe systems for student use and a couple PCs in the school office. When I was copy editor for the school newspaper, articles were done in AppleWorks, printed on an ImageWriter in NLQ in columns and literally pasted up on a master for layout which we photocopied.
Can you cite a source on that? That doesn’t match my understanding of the events.
>Right now they're not, but if this compact were to be in force they would.

OK, looks like I was incorrect on that: according to the current plan, they indeed would be[1].

However, that choice is still up to the state. The state may send a pool of any people as electors and require them by law to vote a certain way - under the same principle that outlaws faithless electors in some states.

In the end, whatever choice the elected government of a state makes is the choice of the people. The constitution[2] specifically says that:

>Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors, equal to the whole Number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress: but no Senator or Representative, or Person holding an Office of Trust or Profit under the United States, shall be appointed an Elector.

The Constitution specifically leaves this choice to the Legislature, not to the people of the state.

The Supreme Court has reasoned that the word appoint in Article II, Section 1, Clause 2, confers on state legislatures the broadest power of determination[3], so your argument that NPV yields a government that isn't "representative" doesn't hold any water, and has specifically been refuted by the Supreme Court already.

In particular, the legislature specifically has the right to choose the electors.

Input of people other than the state legislature is not required by the Constitution.

> And for libraries like this, you'll unfortunately be limited to Typescript ninjas to maintain, but there's no alternative really.

The alternative (in this case , at least) is to generate a dumb fetch interface from the openapi spec. You have to generate the openapi spec types anyway, just take it a step further and generate a dumb fetch interface as well and then you don't need complex generics, you just call dumb typed functions in the generated fetch interface.
That's all I'm hoping for, an ML model that appears to be as good as any human in existence, for all human skills.

To be fair, this is what we do with humans as well, we test their skills. We (rarely!) take humans apart, inspect their brains, and declare that they have reasoning or understanding capabilities.
All of those are possible factors.

> I want my types to be verified before runtime, what should I do with type error at runtime?

It is weird to me you cannot think of uses for types and handling their errors at runtime. Look at projects like FastAPI (which uses pydantic) for an an example where having types at runtime has been handy.

Also, if types are enforced at runtime logging is better, debugging is better, and you have more options for data validation and doing dynamic or metaprogramming likely more easily because you can evaluate these things at runtime. By types being built in, the language gives you a richer set of tools to work with and more options when and how to enforce types.
Is there any didactic implementation of the Disruptor / multicast ring available somewhere? I've been curious in working through some practical example to understand the algorithm better.

> That's the way it's described, but banks in this respect are only acting as agents of the government. They can only "create" money under rules prescribed by the government, and the government, through the Fed, controls how much of it they can create.

And the airlines and aircraft makers can only fly under rules prescribes by the government, specifically the FAA. That does not mean that they are acting as agents of the government.

You can only drive a car under the rules prescribes by your local traffic laws. That does not mean you are acting as an agent of the government.

Yes, there are rules. But following rules passed by government ≠ being (an agent of) the government.

I believe Hume (and Kant) have some things to say about this.

The connection might need some fleshing out, but I believe, and I might be wrong here, it was decided a few centuries ago that probabilities alone cannot explain causality. It would be a hoot, wouldn’t it?

Perhaps AI just need some a priori synthetics to spruce it up.

Slows down your app too, sometimes. Depends how well you can work with and mutate a DOM, but if all things equal no VDOM is always faster cause no diffing.
It would depend on the details, but i suspect government jobs have a higher average salary, better benefits, and more security. So we’d probably expect it to cost more to create better jobs.

Do you remember where you saw it? a quick google didn’t get me anywhere.
I thought I read somewhere that the Chrome team tried typed JS, found out that there was a performance hit, and they ended the experiment? Is this a continuation of that or a new effort? Sounds interesting.
Personally I never heard about it. So it might not be that people didn't want it, but that it wasn't promoted much.

Also, it sounds like the only browser to ever support it was Firefox? That was probably much more of a limiting factor for adoption.

Fun fact, log4j use disrupter
Statements that end in "nothing more" are almost always incorrect. The only way one could make such a statement with total certitude would be to be omniscient, as the phrase implies an exhaustive understanding of all possible facts.
A lot of people can benefit from offsetting mutations with rAF and dbl rAF and batching reads/writes (FastDOM), before needing or considering a VDOM. VDOM came to prominence because of REACT and then started becoming used even when it wasn't needed. It does serve a purpose and scenario when needed, tho
Sorry but your agument is a perfect example of Asimov's "spherical earth fallacy" [1]:

> My answer to him was, "John, when people thought the earth was flat, they were wrong. When people thought the earth was spherical, they were wrong. But if you think that thinking the earth is spherical is just as wrong as thinking the earth is flat, then your view is wronger than both of them put together."

I.e. there's no medical protocol that tells doctor to prescribe unproven "accepted truth", at least not in important areas. It's way different to tell someone to ingest dangerous chemical compounds that were not even designed for medical purposes.

Arrow maybe, but the spaces around it are there for a reason - numbers aren't the only valid values: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/grid-column...

Because of how spaces are already used to separate values in CSS (not to mention our own regular intuition when dashes are involved), this:

grid-column: 4 somegridarea / 6;
grid-column: span 3 / 6;
grid-column: span somegridarea / span someothergridarea;

is much better than these:

grid-column: 4 somegridarea-6;
grid-column: span 3-6;
grid-column: span 3->6;
grid-column: span somegridarea-span someothergridarea;
grid-column: span somegridarea->span someothergridarea;

> and this is why ancient philosophers, many of whom didn't really explore nuance

Couldn't we say that most of Plato's is about progressively refining from a rough starting point for example? Or, consider even ITT how interpreting Aristotle properly requires understanding the nuances of his original vocabulary.

Regarding the knife example, while there's value in going deeper for those willing to study knife handling, it was probably not deemed relevant to the point being made: a tool is a good tool if it can perform a reasonably well-suited task, when used by someone reasonably skilled.

This is an abstract point of view, which can be appreciated by anyone working with tools, from cooks to programmers: in any domain, a good tool is one which fulfills the task for which it was originally conceived.
A more accurate title for the OP would be "I hope and wish PyTorch were dead, so Jax could become the standard."

Leaving aside the fact that PyTorch's ecosystem is 10x to 100x larger, depending on how one measures it, PyTorch's biggest advantage, in my experience, is that it can be picked up quickly by developers who are new to it. Jax, despite its superiority, or maybe because of it, can not be picked up quickly.

Equinox does a great job of making Jax accessible, but Jax's functional approach is in practice more difficult to learn than PyTorch's object-oriented one.

It's amusing that you think that the Fed is an instrument of the government, but other conspiracy theorists think it is an instrument of private banks:

> Griffin then turns his attention to the secret meeting that took place on Jekyll Island in 1910. He reveals how a small group of powerful bankers, including representatives from J.P. Morgan, Rockefeller, and other influential figures, devised a plan to create a central banking system that would serve their own interests. They realized that they needed to present the Federal Reserve as a government entity to gain public support, despite the fact that it was, in essence, a private institution.

Thanks for taking some interest in my project. It came from being frustrated with the state of SSGs over the past 10 years. I mostly just make static websites, and I wanted something that was simple and intuitive to me, and JSX seemed like a great fit. But I got very tired of the disproportionately scaled complexity of JSX frameworks like React. Long story short, I made an SSG that just renders JSX as strings. It was natural to extend that to the browser to just render JSX as DOM elements. And in a few cases (mostly layout) it lends well to shared components. Overall I'm happy with what I came up with, although some of it is admittedly a little hacky, and IDE support isn't as good as it could be.

[edit] Oh also, this solution works really well for SEO. That's another problem I didn't find solved well in other JSX frameworks.
I'll risk it: would using Rust help here?

I'll try the guess the answer:

It would make it harder to develop, would prevent most errors like this from ever reaching production, but also would lower the performance baseline because Rust wouldn't allow to write code with some clever tricks like self modifying code.
As a bit of a fan of Orkney (a family connection), I will point out that there are many attractions for archaeologists in Orkney. Some sites are dating before Stonehenge circle or at least similar timeframes, I wonder if the central Scottish stone at Stonehenge is an attempt to transfer the magic from Orkney (a biased view INAA)

We have the Standing Stones of Stenness (as mentioned), the Ring of Brodgar, the chambered cairn at Maeshowe, the Barnhouse Settlement and the Ring of Bookan. Also we have The Neolithic village at Skara Brae (The site was occupied from roughly 3180 BC to about 2500 BC and is Europe's most complete Neolithic village).

The archaeological dig at the Ness of Brodgar is closing soon after 20 years of work, to preserve the rest for future archaeologists. I think we have enough samples to keep the researchers happy for a long time.

If going then pack warm clothes as Orkney is very windy and frequently wet. To paraphrase Billy Connolly “Orkney is definitely windswept and interesting”
This. We need multiple sources because everything will have a certain amount of bias baked in even if they're trying to be scrupulously honest. There will always be a zone of uncertainty and within that news organizations will generally choose a point on the side of whatever they think their readership wants to see.

And beyond that there's the reality that even the reasonably honest ones care more about being able to report than about the accuracy of the report. The threat of denied access gets most everyone to lie.
Thanks!

We haven't tested it yet. Regarding CTFs, I have some experience. I'm a member of the Tea Deliverers CTF team, and I participated in the DARPA CGC CTF back in 2016 with team b1o0p.

There are a few issues that make it challenging to directly apply our AIxCC approaches to CTF challenges:

1. *Format Compatibility:* This year’s DEFCON CTF finals didn’t follow a uniform format. The challenges were complex and involved formats like a Lua VM running on a custom Verilog simulator. Our system, however, is designed for source code repositories like Git repos.

2. *Binary vs. Source Code:* CTFs are heavily binary-oriented, whereas AIxCC is focused on source code. In CTFs, reverse engineering binaries is often required, but our system isn’t equipped to handle that yet. We are, however, interested in supporting binary analysis in the future!
I ran into an gullible simpleton the other day, who happens to not watch any news. (subtext implication follows)
If only had he "watched the news", surely he would have been cured of his condition and clued in to the truth.

What would actually happen in practice is that he would be parroting back 'facts' by a news source that would not be to your liking at all.

Because the "problem" ultimately is not him reading or not reading the news... it's somewhere else entirely, isn't it?
