> But I don't understand why people seem so resistant to the idea that some sun is probably beneficial.

The sun ages your skin. It makes you look older. I've known people in their 40's who have avoided sun who look like they're in their late 20's. Their skin is supple, has few wrinkles, and generally looks healthy. My friend is my age, his wife is 10 years older than he. She legitimately looks a good 10 years younger than him thanks to intentionally avoiding the sun throughout her life.

I, in contrast, look my age (40's as well), because I've spent a reasonable amount of my life outside. Chores, being raised with an attitude of "don't come back inside until dinnertime", and swimming competitively in the summer. My skin doesn't heal as well, it's less supple (sub-skin features show through more harshly than they used to), and I have a fair share of wrinkles around my eyes and corners of my mouth (charitably referred to as laugh lines).

And then there's the extreme sunbathers and outdoor laborers who look like they're in their 70's at 40; who have already had potential cancerous spots on their skin removed.

It's simply one of those things where even moderate exposure can do demonstrable damage to your skin. And if not treated quickly, the cancer sun exposure causes can straight up kill you.

Finding out that it may also have positive benefits feels weird. It feels like learning that regular exposure to acid has long term health benefits.
This stuff is why CVE numbers are meaningless. "Someone can see the temperature of your server if they can get into your home network" is barely a bug, let alone a security bug.

This is just generating CVE numbers for the sake of it.

I think you're right on with the micro-transactions, Roblox is particularly bad for it. One of the games on there my boy likes is Rainbow Friends, its some sort of tame horror survival genre which he loves exploring around and playing as the different characters. If I could just buy that game as a 'full unlock' or something I probably would, instead it's $$$ "micro" transactions for every little thing and it really isn't a habit I want to get the kids into.

Zed is trying to position itself as a next gen hackers editor. Text editing with lessons learned from the multitude of experiments in the space. A flagship feature that is online only and requires me to trust a third party is a deal breaker to many. For instance, my employer would not be pleased if I suddenly started sharing code with another.

Take the AI out of the conversation: if you told your employer you shared the codebase, that’s an insta-fire kind of move.
Hmm. I was excited about Zed, but it now seems painfully clear they’re headed in a completely different direction than I’m interested in. Back to neovim, I guess…
The Bay Area start up money bought nice marketing that makes it look popular, but it's not really.
Seems like a fair assertion to me, accepting the fact that we have no way (yet?) of proving it one way or the other. Just from observing any animal I think the default assumption is that we're the only ones who ruminate about our own selves the way we do.
Higher ultraviolet light exposure from:

"The UK Biobank has data from which behavioural and geographic UV exposures can be estimated. Firstly, participants were asked ‘how many times a year would you use a solarium or sunlamp?’ We recoded the responses to create a solarium use variable (solarium user or solarium non-user, defined as one or more times per year versus never or less than one time per year)."

and

"Secondly, we estimated an annual average residential shortwave radiation (SWR; kJ/m2) over the follow-up period variable for each participant. Downward SWR is the total incoming solar energy over the Earth's surface in the shortwave spectrum and comprises both UVA and UVB radiation, (Yu et al., 2021) the components solar radiation that have effects on human health. The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) calculates half-monthly average of daily downward SWR (250 nm–2500nm) measurements using daily data from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) instrument on NASA's Aqua and Terra satellites, considering cloud and aerosol thickness (Murakami, 2010). These measurements are available at a 0.05°x.0.05° spatial resolution."

So, "Did you use a sunroom at least once?" and "How much solar radiation does where you live according to our model?"
Are you talking specifically about the general UX? On initial glance it does look a little like there is a bit more of a learning curve to navigate.
How sweet, that are the same arguments they used against the gdpr
It's different though. Did we have the ubiquitous implementation of nuclear power in only its nascent early days so widespread? To assume it will peter out the same way assumes the metaphor is 1:1, when I brought it up to imply simply that since a lot of developments are happening in secret now and companies are delaying releases for safety reasons, to the public is appears as if things are slowing. Even so, AI models are still far better and cheaper now than they were simply a year ago. We have simply gotten used to breakthroughs.
Running the numbers, paying $28/month to rent the phone doesn't seem that different than what most people who buy "free phones" with a two year contract.

But at the end of those two years, people in the latter stop paying the "rental fee" and have a phone that's worth a few hundred, which they can sell or trade in for another phone on a two year contract.
What's happening here is you can make the slack AI hallucinate a message that never existed by telling it to combine your private messages with another message in a public channel in arbitrary ways.

Slack claims it isn't a problem because the user doing the "ai assisted" search has permission to both the private and public data. However that data never existed in the format the AI responds with.

An attacker can make it return the data in such a way that just clicking on the search result makes private data public.

This is basic html injection using AI as the vector. I'm sure slack is aware how serious this is, but they don't have a quick fix so they are pretending it is intended behavior.

It’s funny, I’ve been photographing since my early youth (dodged a bullet and never went for the career path though), and I feel the complete opposite.

In my opinion, the picture shows what I want it to show. You can never capture reality anyway: a photograph is never a single point in time, but rather a time frame during which the sensor is exposed to light, a short video, all frames overlaid in a single still shot, if you will. This can be so short that the image appears to be what your eyes see, but it is by definition always an approximation. What’s more, an approximation with parameters under the control of the photographer.

Thus I, as the artist, get to decide what I want the image to be. If that means false color, a slow shutter speed with motion blur, or long exposure to light up a scene in the dark—or yes, AI edits—that’s my artistic freedom.
> measured serum vitamin D levels, a biomarker for UV exposure,

That's entirely the opposite of adjusting the results for vitamin D levels. It's biasing the results by vitamin D levels.
I'd love to see mirroring to GH/GL/SH of papers' archived code and data. It would be great to have that stuff indexed. But they'll rarely have more than a few stars.

youre not getting more than a consistent 5 up on starlink unless you call for a quote
For smaller countries, asymmetric warfare is clearly of advantage. Smart (sea) mines, artificial barriers and obstacles (steel chains, spikes!), autonomous weapon systems (drones), swarm weapons, EMC dischargers, mobile/portable weapon systems are things that can be mass-produced relatively cheaply, but could pose a significant defense against the advance of bigger adversaries.

No one can win a war with air force alone, so there is always the need for troops on the ground. But the transportation of troops can be easily disrupted. Humans soldiers are precious asset but fragile. Killing or injure them on the sea, in the air and on the open land is much easier than taking and holding a city.
This is an interesting finding. But, a reminder that this is epidemiological data. It is nearly impossible to "adjust" for all confounding variables in epidemiological studies. For example, you may expect a health user-bias among people who use solariums, sunlamps, or have high vitamin-D levels, and health at baseline might be effected by random fluctuations not accounting for all variance. I would look for evidence of randomized trials before taking this as the truth.

Can you make star count and participant count part of the search? `stars:>99` could be a search term to limit the search to repositories with at least 100 stars.
I just want a fast programmable text editor with a native GUI and good defaults.

But that seems really tough to find, for some reason.

Zed is so close, but I’d much rather see a focus on the “programmable” part and let the AI and collaboration features emerge later out of rich extensibility (i.e. as plugins, perhaps even paid plugins) than have them built-in behind a sign-in and unknown future pricing model.

There are a lot of tools that promise to help you understand existing code. However, it's a really hard problem and to me none of them is production ready.

Personally, I think the problem is that if the AI got it wrong, it would waste you a lot of time trying to figure out whether it's wrong or not. It's similar to outdated comments.
Yup - all the basic HTML injection and xss attacks apply. All the OWASP webdev 101 security issues that have been mostly solved by web frameworks are back in force with AI.
I'm not sure this is entirely true, but I guess we could test it by generating a large enough dataset around a specific concept, and see if we can add that concept to a model. Or change one that exists to something else entirely.

For example, create an "idea", generate thousands of Q&A pairs about that idea from different angles, and generate conversations about that idea, then train the model on it. This is essentially the Phi process, but with a single concept instead of "everything."

My guess is that fine-tuning cannot add the concept to the model without suffering from catastrophic loss everywhere else. However if we added that same data to the pre-training dataset and retrain the model, the model would express the idea correctly.
> it explains the concepts so well.

Indeed. Watching the video I found the practical and visual illustration of math concepts when implemented in mechanical gears to feel intuitive in a way I never felt from chalkboard math instruction. As a person who's always struggled with traditional algebra and up math education, seeing it presented in this physical way really felt fundamentally more accessible to me. Like I strangely felt far more 'connected' to concepts in a way I never have before. Has anyone ever tried to teach algebra and higher level math concepts this way?

I suspect if back in high school and college, math classes had geared machines I could touch and turn a crank on to see the "math work", maybe my life would have been different. I basically dropped out of college due to falling behind in high school on algebra fundamentals and never being able to catch up in college. When I found I loved computers in the college's BASIC 101 class, yet found any access to computers beyond that class requiring a transfer to the math dept (this being the early 80s), and not being able to pass the prereq classes for that transfer, I dropped out. Strangely, I immediately bought an 8-bit computer with 4K of RAM and became an entirely self-taught programmer (which ended up working out very well for me in the end), but what might have been...
To me the Astral folks have a lot of credibility because both their ruff linter and formatter have been fantastic. Elevates this kind of announcement from yet another Python packaging thingy to something worth paying attention to.

I like the idea of that single-file Python script with inline dependency info construct, but it's probably going to be a bummer in terms of editor experience. I doubt the typical LSP servers will be aware of dependencies specified in that way and so won't offer autocompletion etc for those libraries.
Vim also has support for Lua scripts.
Sounds like XSS for LLM chatbots: It's one of those things that maybe doesn't seem impressive (at least technically) but they are pretty effective in the real world
> How’s the performance on doing the same analysis on a dataset with 1 billion rows for instance?

This really depends on whether your tool can handle the scale. We only use a sample of the outputs when constructing the context for your instruction so it should be independent of the scale of the data. We mostly use metadata such as table names, fields, schemas etc to construct the context.

> Also does this work with self hosted Metabase or Metabase Cloud? Or both?

Yep, it should work on both :) We have users across both
I recently switched from neovim to zed, and I overall like Zed. I miss telescope, and think some vim navigation was better, but I suspect that it has to do with how much effort I put into configuring one over the other, so time will tell.

My biggest gripe was how bad the AI was. I really want a heavy and well-crafter AI in my editor, like Cursor, but I don't want a fork of the (hugely bloated and slow) vscode, and I trust the Zed engineering team much more to nail this.

I am very excited about this announcement. I hope they shift focus from the real-time features (make no sense to me) to AI.
AI autocomplete is just a toy, it has been there since the begining of AI code and I find it pretty useless. I prefer making a proper prompt to get better answers. Also most of the time engineers (use AI to) modify existing codebases rather than making new code.
Genuinely fascinating! I'd show you the instances on Reddit of similar comments where people admitted it after I pointed it out, but unfortunately I don't really want to link my accounts.

You're also free to confirm in my HN history that in hundreds of comments (and tens of thousands read), this is the single one time I've pointed it out. I did do a cross-check of their profile to confirm it, just in case it was a false positive - don't want to accuse anyone if I'm not 100% sure, because it's indeed technically possible that someone simply has the exact same writing style as the default ChatGPT assistant.

Here's the entire comment, dissected to make the structure and patterns clearer.

> As a __, __.

> However, it's crucial that ___.

> While __, ___ is risky.

> ___ highlight the importance of __ in __.

> We need to ___ to __.

Any single one of these sentences on their own wouldn't be enough. It's the combination, the dosage that I mentioned.

If you're interested in hard data that explores this phenomenon (although outdated/an older version of GPT), here's an article [1]. In a year or so, if you do the same analysis on "However, it's crucial that", you'll discover the same trend as the article showed for "a complex and multifaceted concept". Maybe the author would be open to sharing the code, or rerunning the experiment.

> It's quite literally why branding is so important.

Most of the goods you purchase are from brands not owned by the retail website. Pick a hobby and consider the prominent brands, then consider the prominent websites people in that hobby often patronize - they are very often not the same.

> and are acting like this is a world ending event for a small-medium sized ecommerce site to be down for a while

Because it kind of is. The smaller you are, the more significant of an impact an outage has. Nobody is going to think "this website I've never heard of totally isn't working right now, so I'll just wait around until they fix it". No, instead, they will go on to their next google search result - or Amazon. This hurts even worse if they clicked one of your ads while your website is down... costing you actual money and not just the sale opportunity. A customer that might have had an expected lifetime of 1-3+ orders now becomes 0.

Websites don't have "business hours", and routine maintenance is not acceptable for customers that shop when it's convenient for themselves. Remember, ecommerce exists as a better way to do over-the-phone and catalog/mail ordering. One of those benefits is you can order whenever you want - so it is in fact important for the website to be online at close to 100% as possible.

This is the whole conceit behind Neil deGrasse Tyson's book "Accessory to War":

"Accessory to War: The Unspoken Alliance Between Astrophysics and the Military is the fifteenth book by American astrophysicist and science communicator Neil deGrasse Tyson which he co-wrote with researcher and writer Avis Lang. It was released on September 11, 2018 by W. W. Norton & Company. The book chronicles war and the use of space as a weapon going as far back as before the Ancient Greeks, and includes examples such as Christopher Columbus' use of his knowledge of a lunar eclipse and the use of satellite intelligence by the United States during the Gulf War. While speaking on the book, Tyson told National Geographic that he regards the collaboration between science and the military as a 'two-way street.'"

FWIW Tyson is quite critical of the application of astrophysics research to military ends.

> It's very difficult to explain to someone who definitely doesn't want to hear that it's actually been broken for a long time, they just didn't care enough to notice or to invest in doing it right the first time.

I once read a book on primatology (can't remember the title, wish I could) that observed that over 8 million people live together in NYC. For the most part peacefully. But if you put 8 million chimpanzees together in the same space they would rip each other apart. It would be a bloodbath.

Which is to say that one of the unique things about humans is our ability to get along with each other. To form ever-larger stable communities. So I question your declaration that the "true nature of humanity" is to be in competition with one another. I'd say we're the dominant species on the planet precisely because we have an ability to put aside competition and cooperate with each other. Not always, of course, but the majority of the time.

Glad this was pointed out - this article is specifically about regions in “low” UV latitudes, with the actual subject being from the UK.

Accounting for UV intensity of your home country is crucial. Don’t just go out and frolic without precautions just because a study from the UK found sun exposure was good. Their sun isn’t built the same.

Mid day UV index in SF is 9 as I type. Compare what the paper says about the UK UV index:

“ The UV index [in the uk], which measures the erythemal intensity of sunlight, rarely exceeds 6 (where 3–5 is classified as moderate and 6–7 high)”

Make good decisions people! I got some sun when the UV was 2 early in the early morning. Now it’s 9 at midday. All sun is not equal.
