What it shows is that we're sold out of one part but not the next part up. We're not cutting all our prices in half. We'd just rather source more L40S's than A10's, for what I think are pretty obvious reasons.

This all happened because we were having internal meetings about trying to find A10s to rack, and Kurt stopped and said "wtf are we doing".

If it'll make you feel better, we'll continue to charge you the previous list price for L40S GPU hours.

CEOs are just picking lanes. Lanes defined by their crew. (The Captain doesn't determine the answer, they pick the answer from options provided by the crew).

And AI can factor in much more than any human.

So...feed the workers data into the AI CEO.

Definitely not FDIC insurance.

A "Capital One 360 Performance Savings" account gets 4.25% APY with full FDIC coverage.

A "Capital One 360 Savings" account gets like 0.2% APY with full FDIC coverage.

Clearly they don't actually need to eat 4% APY in order to get FDIC, or else the first type of saving account would be a bad one to offer.

Anyway, the FDIC is a promise from the government that they'll cover your cash, and so is a treasury. Treasuries and FDIC insurance both have roughly the same risk, which is that of the US government collapsing entirely.
Being informed doesn't help without the power to change things.
Wire can easily get held up for unknown amounts of time with no recourse. A brokerage attached to a real bank is the only liquid solution for large amounts. Everything else is on an ACH timeframe, which is usually next day with push, but that's often not good enough when you actually need large amounts of money.
If your Treasuries lose their value then the absence of FDIC backing is truly the least of your concerns.
I wonder if a go-fund-me campaign could raise the funds to buy it, and break each stone and brick away. These stones/cement/bricks to be then rendered into dust via a mining crusher and buried in the deep sea. The basement can be filled with earth. Old clay/stone/cement will have no toxic residue. All metals/nails smelted, wood burned.
This would leave a flat unbroken area, where grass could grow? No memorial or other marking to show what was once there. Had this been done in 1945, it would be a faded memory by now...
I have been very skeptical of AI, the smell of hype is strong in this one.

This said, I have started some experiments and like in all hyped technologies, there is some useful substance there as well.

My recommendation is to start with some very simple and real, repetitive need, and do it with the assistants API.

I started by turning a semi-structured word document of 150 entries into a structured database table. I would have probably done it more quickly by hand, but I would not have learned anything that way.

I think the sweet spot for generative AI right now is not in creative jobs (creating code, creating business communication , content creation etc.) but in mundane, repetivive things, where using generative AI seems like overkill at first.

And the Go, Java, Ruby, JavaScript, C#, Typescript, PHP, Kotlin, R compilers, and so on.

But even for hobby projects, it’s just a matter of personal preference. OCaml is great for implementing compilers. So are Go, C++, and Java.
A “real” bank is not necessary. The bank charter is for their benefit, not yours, and a brokerage offers everything one should need to satisfy their financial service needs (assuming no lending products besides margin).

It's rather uses unix time instead of randomness. This manner you see the same words repeatedly when you have a intermediate timer (press button every 5 minutes), it's maths.

But look instead of using space repetiton, you can just remove words you've learnt from the words list.

Although a simple EE, I learned Galois Theory in college (coincidentally also in Edinburgh, although <other-university>). In 4th/final/senior year there were various elective classes including Advanced Mathematics which I chose as a kind of masochistic challenge. The class was very small, and it turned out taught by a "real mathematician" who commuted from the Mathematics department every day. Even though I've had a great deal of mathematics education I think this was the only time the teacher was someone who did mathematics all-in (as in he created new mathematics, published papers etc.) as opposed to someone who had the job of teaching some field (sic) in mathematics.

He taught Galois Theory using its application to coding theory for worked examples. That class was something of a turning point in my life to be honest.
I'd never think of constructing a heptagon again, for example. Definitely avoided Duels, and Montparnasse. Ok joking aside, it caused the proverbial lightbulb to turn on in my brain, and helped tremendously in my career later when I ran into folks trying to seem smart because they understood ECC or ZKPs.
It was like the extreme opposite of those people who say "I never used a single thing I learned in college".
Sure, but in my mind, the onus is on the person claiming the single-digit number of interviews where someone was bold with Trump mattered, as opposed to 4 years of his policies causing people to dislike how he effected their life. I highly doubt "wait, but he just lied" is something someone realized years into him being a candidate with nearly 100% name recognition in the US. As you say, it ended up being about turnout, and I find it very unlikely that more people decided to vote because of a couple interviews with someone they likely already disagreed with.
In the most general context it means "with the characteristics of the living" (as seen through a middle ages lens).

In the context of "quicklime" the quick refers to the heat of the reaction when making lime for slaking on walls, etc.

"Quick" historicaly has been applied to plants and animals (alive), rivers and streams (moving), coals, fires, quicklime (burning, heat producing, glowing), to speeches and pamphlets (Lively, full of vigour or sharp argument), to tastes, to smells, and more.

The full blown Oxford English Dictionary entry for quick is a lengthy one, multiple cases and variations over a page and more.

I fully agree. For most of my career, I hated the idea of writing (unit) tests. They were almost always a waste of time.

At one point, I ended up on a team that had virtually no QA and only did automated end-to-end tests on a complex product. After working through a lot of tech debt on the testing (took a few months), it was solid and caught many defects introduced by junior/new developers (easily missed in code review).

I now have the fortune to be in a different group with a similar mindset. I’m motivated to write tests for my own code just to prove to myself that it works properly in odd error cases too. My team prefers testing instead of “run fast and break things.” (And with multiple decades of experience, I humbly can state I cause significantly fewer bugs than in the past.) This also makes me write code in an easily testable manner. Trying to test already written code is usually a lengthy and painful exercise in frustration.

It’s also too easy to write error handlers that are NEVER actually exercised once, even manually — and surprise, they may not even work! People who never write tests do this quite often.

90% of tips are probably undeclared income to the irs anyway. But if you make the dont ask don’t tell about tips official, can self employed people tip themselves instead of paying self employment / payroll taxes ? Will tips still have to be declared , just not taxed , so future changes can increase tip tax compliance ?
I've never been a CEO of a big company, but I've been the CEO of a company that did $5m a year in business. I've also worked for $6 an hour sweeping, busked on the subway, and been the lowest paid person at a few companies besides. The CEO role had by far the most stress, to the point it caused me debilitating health issues.

Many brokerages also offer access to a public market of bank CD offerings. So, you can go that route and get FDIC insurance if you want while avoiding the pitfalls of dealing directly with a single bank outlined in the article.

I prefer Treasuries in my taxable accounts as there is a break on State taxes for the interest generated. I hold CDs in my non-taxable retirement accounts as they tend to pay a few tenths of a percent higher.

Before Netflix, there was Blockbuster. If we’re old enough, we remember going there and wandering through the aisles, trying to find something we would commit to. It was just as hard as picking something to watch today. There’s something incredibly important about not having the option and just going with the flow, which I think a lot of people won’t admit they like but actually do. It’s something truly missing from today’s society.

Actually, now that I think about it, I believe this is why TikTok succeeds so well, along with all the doom scrolling—it’s exactly like this. You don’t know what you’re going to get next. Maybe you like it, maybe you don’t, and that’s okay. You’re just flipping through it.
> To me, the interests served are the conglomerate of political and corporate powers, which may be at odds with the average US citizen.

That's a fair criticism, and thank you for the insightful comment that I think gets at what I was talking about. I think at the heart of it is the question of whether what's good for American industry is good for the American people, and that question almost never has a good answer.

I have complicated feelings about this issue, because on the one hand, I have experience working with these media organizations and I can tell you they are extremely adverse to change and would prefer dumping money into legal battles than even consider innovating. They will always be dragged kicking and screaming into doing it. And the pressure that piracy put onto the industry did lead to some innovation that was for the better. No example is better than early Hulu, which was an industry collaboration, and at its heart was an admission of failure of legacy business practices to put television and later film on the internet for free (and then later, for a price).

On the other hand, entertainment is an extremely important American industry. It's one of our chief exports and a source of soft power. It gets people around the world to learn English without us shipping teachers to foreign countries, it teaches Americanisms to people who've never visited the country, and helps influence not only the perception of America but allows us to export American values to countries that don't have them (whether or not that's good or moral is up to you to decide). Those are all good things for the American people when we're exporting or importing anything else, and in the globalized economy that's the kind of soft power that has second order effects on every other industry.

When that industry is threatened and they can point to a specific foreign actor that is maliciously targeting them and making it harder for the industry to operate efficiently, then yea, it makes sense for the government to bring down the heaviest hammer they possibly can and flex their hegemony on allies to put an end to it. And in terms of pragmatism, it's easier to shut off the threat at the source than to deal with the effects domestically while suffering those internationally.

This is an antiquated example, but it's why the government invaded Tripoli in the early 19th century. America was dependent on exports of their goods to Europe, and Barbary pirates threatened that. So instead of just accepting what happens overseas, they joined with Sweden and sent naval squadrons and marines to force the state of Tripolitania to enforce peace (through war). You could say that was some conglomerate of political and corporate powers with exporters, but at the end of the day it was crucial for the fledgling state to make others understand they shouldn't mess with American ships at sea. And it's something we do to this day, by putting naval forces on major shipping routes and effectively destroying piracy as an institution. And we, the American people, get lower prices and higher profits as a result.
I played with it a year ago and it really hasn't improved much since then. I even had it produce a few things similar to your battle ship demo.

And next year I don't see it improving much either if the best idea anybody has it just to give it more data, which seems to be the mantra in ML circles. There's not an infinite supply of data to give it.

“ Anecdotally, my psoriasis disappeared after I switched to a strict vegetarian diet. I can't prove it, though, so I don't go on Reddit making unscientific claims I can't back up with evidence.”

There will always be exceptions like your case. However it is clearly the case that there aren’t hundreds of different types of gut fungi which grow out of control over a dysbiosis occurs in the guts microbiome. There is generally one type and it is called Candida. The problem is called a Candida overgrowth. Candida generally eats carbohydrates and sugar. A carnivore diet will generally starve it and cause a die off. The Candida generally released toxins that cause auto immune disorders.

Now I’m speaking in the cases of most not all people who experience auto immune disorders and where those disorders are caused by the guts microbiome.

There are also the cases where the gut has been damaged by gluten and other plant materials and is leaking food into the blood.

As far as I’m aware no animal flesh of any type does such damage to the gut. No fungi eats animal flesh.

You seem to think gut dysbiosis is one bacteria dominating others. No. It is a fungus in most cases. A single called yeast that rapidly duplicates called Candida and eats plants.

Why should you care about compound AI?
Amazon and Apple did not decide such a thing. Apple and the publishers had worked out an agreement to raise the price of ebooks to be closer to that of new releases to counter the monopolistic cheap-to-the-point-of-failing-authors approach from Amazon.

The US Government got involved in that agreement and declared it illegal because it hurt Amazon's bottom line…and the publishing industry is in a much worse situation with Amazon controlling even more of the income than ever, while now diverting revenue to shitty LLM-publishers and away from humans who try to write things that people want to read.

Basically, that decision by the government was wrong, and we’re all suffering for it. Upcoming decisions and the DMA are different, but they are making many of the same mistakes as the US Government did with the publishing agreement, in that these intervention will:

- reduce overall security on devices that must be more secure than personal computers because they often act as payment devices, personal IDs, and other matters (this is not guaranteed, but many of the moves being advocated are going to lead to bad actors getting to pretend that they are equivalent to the operating system, or provide access to Secure Enclave data in ways that encourage large criminal and nation state attacks on the ecosystem)

- reduce overall payment security and convenience for real people (you think that cancelling a NYT subscription is hard, let Tim Sweeney design a payment flow and it will take a personal visit to Epic to cancel a subscription, and even then it will take more time than it should)

Everyone focuses on the 30%. It should be lower; there should be wider access and less gatekeeping‡. But if you want it to be zero, start taking on the PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch monopolies, too as they charge as much and sometimes more.

‡ I think that Apple (and probably Google) need to get over their American prudishness. This would require having better categorization and parental controls that could be enabled by device owners and even providing applications ways of applying parental controls (let Tumblr bring its adult-oriented content back, but enable the Tumblr app to apply parental controls via an API). There are other changes that I would like to see, but absolutely none of them involve letting Tim Sweeney / Epic get involved in taking payment details, because I trust him far less than I trust Tim Cook / Apple (or even Google).

According to Wikipedia, DisplayPort 2.0+ can coexist with USB data on the same cable, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DisplayPort

[2.0] .. using only two lanes on the USB-C connector via DP Alt Mode to allow for simultaneous SuperSpeed USB data and video

[2.1] .. tightened its alignment with the USB Type-C specification as well as the USB4 PHY specification to facilitate a common PHY servicing both DisplayPort and USB4. In addition, DisplayPort 2.1 has added a new DisplayPort bandwidth management feature to enable DisplayPort tunnelling to coexist with other I/O data traffic more efficiently over the USB4 link.

Of course, all solutions comes with their own set of issues but preferring SSN over public/private keys for authentication is wild.

I'm not sure why but it seems like most of the high quality AI content is on twitter. On average seems to be around ~4 months ahead of HN on AI dev approaches.

I would suggest following / reading people who talk about using Claude 3.5 sonnet.

Lots of people developing whole apps using 3.5 sonnet and sometimes cursor or another editor integration. The models are getting quite good now at writing code once you learn how to use them right and don't use the incorrect LLMs (a problem I often see in places other than twitter unfortunately.) They seem to get better almost weekly now too. Just yesterday Anthropic released an update where you can now store your entire codebase to call as part of the prompt at 90% token discount. Should make an already very good model much better.

Gumroad's CEO has also made some good YouTube content describing a lot of these techniques, but they're livestreams so there is a lot of dead air.
