cool concept though.
Yeah jitter is generally used to mitigate “thundering herd” type problems because it reduces the peak load by spreading it out over time.
Impact of AI on Web Development: Key Apps and Trends
Artificial intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing multiple industries, and web development is no exception. As AI technology evolves, it continues to influence the way developers create, manage, and optimize web applications. Let’s explore some key AI applications and trends in web development and how they are shaping the future of this field.

And OpenAI also has Structured Outputs[1] that has the same effect as Guidance. I use it to safely deserialize remote function calls based on a jsonschema[2]. It works very well.

Any chance this supports smithy?
The fork is what put me off so I use Codeium that seems to do an excellent job. It has saved me a lot of time especially in "convert from React to HTML" or "Use this field list to define a table" type tasks. The more autocompletey end of things rather than intelligent.

The practical issue of a fork for me is .NET won't debug on a fork, but that is probably a niche issue overall.

Edit: Codeium
closest thing to a supported scraper list

Most countries investing in nuclear do so in part to fund a domestic nuclear industry so that they can at least partly privatize the cost of a nuclear arms program. Nuclear is too expensive to be competitive without governmental support.
You call it hyperbole then literally in the next paragraph say that SDEs are expected to spend 2-4 hours coding.
I agree. @Dang, can we update "highly anticipated device" to "foldable macbook" in the title?
What would happen if we had, not a general AI yet, but easy access to the knowledge required to perform any job?

I like this prediction by Alvin Toffler:

> People of post-industrial society change their profession and their workplace often. People have to change professions because professions quickly become outdated. People of post-industrial society thus have many careers in a lifetime. The knowledge of an engineer becomes outdated in ten years. People look more and more for temporary jobs.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Future_Shock

Instead of "losing" jobs (ok, some tasks of those will be replaced), there will be re-mixed jobs: dev-designers? doctor-programmers? more and more specialized branches of every permutation.

The only way to "lose" jobs, instead of transformed, would be by full AI replacement, which didn't happen in this AI summer.
I was under the impression Japanese curry as we know it today was born in the US, as a way of using bruised/soft vegetables or something.

There are far superior forms of "katsu" out there, the greatest being the chicken Katsudon or chicken Katsu egg don.

I'll fight anyone that disagrees.
It was an event for me as Microsoft decided to brick .NET debugging in forks.
Yup, you'll see 100% utilization on a kernel over a time period if it's considered active, which includes just having a single thread executing [1]. SM occupancy is great but can be a little difficult to interpret since you're not simply trying to maximize it, unlike SM efficiency.

This hit me 2 days ago as I was shuffling dual boot systems around trying to recover some old data for a client. Kind of hilarious timing tbh, right after I was done laughing arrogantly about CrowdStrike
It is usually possible to decrease your attack surface.
I haven't tried Zettlr, so I can't compare, and I'm not here to criticize, but what I miss in many tools in this Market is the ability to install and create extensions. That's why I'm a huge fan of Obsidian [0].

I publish my notes [1] using Obsidian Publish [2], and find the experience really good. I'm able to customize almost every aspect I need to.

There's also Quartz [3] that is a good compatible alternative to Obsidian Publish.

You can at least make it very expensive.
CRUD backends and their types can be easily boiled down into various statements about permissions. I don't think CRUD needs to be hand-written anymore. I think that will go first.

That said, I think the data engineering aspects will be around for a while. For example integrating outside data, analytical processing.

One domain that won't be heavily affected for a while is gaming. Gaming will only hire more and more AI developers to make the content more interesting/interactive.

Thank you for the feedback, this makes sense!

I updated the example to include the imports:

```

import { init, tx, id } from "@instantdb/react";

const db = init({
appId: process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_ID,
});

function Chat() {

// 1. Read
const { isLoading, error, data } = db.useQuery({
messages: {},
});

// 2. Write
const addMessage = (message) => {
db.transact(tx.messages[id()].update(message));
};

// 3. Render!
return <UI data={data} onAdd={addMessage} />;

}

```

What do you think?
I'll try being more direct.

I have a tightly-defined universe of discourse here, and you are operating almost completely outside it. Why is your engagement with my comment relevant beyond the connection to DRAKON?

So far, I've seen you write about cultists and Buran and, now, how sequence diagrams and state diagrams are superior. That final bit could admittedly make for interesting conversation, but I've heretofore not seen significant substantiation from you or, hell, any interrogation from you why I even use DRAKON.

Dare I say it, but I feel like I've been the target of your trauma response here, and I don't exactly appreciate it.
oh this looks great, thank you for bringing this up! I'll have to give it a try, but seems like the FSDP limitation on torch.compile might carry over?
Ah I see. The idea behind the model name is to kind of abstract away so the user needs to think less (why was it Llama last week and now it is Mixtral).

I have updated the UI to make it more obvious what the model is.

I am happy for people to know how the sausage is made and go direct to that provider if they don't see value in the UI. I might write an architecture post one day too.
The benchmarks are mostly Python. Python is mostly used by AI engineers. So most likely the AI engineers' job, lol.

Another angle is that it's based on training data. Something like Android and web changes drastically every damn year. We've seen people applying for jobs and using LLMs; the key indicator is that they're using architecture from 2018 or so.

It hasn't been well trained on game dev, either. Most of these are not benchmarked, so they tend to fly below the radar.
How about this quote instead, then?

>"Big data" is a way that a lot of people are trying to make money today, and it's a favorite of marketing people because it's in the wind. ... But in fact, the interesting future is not about data at all, but about meaning, and Stephen[ Wolfram]'s demos showed you a thought which most people in the computing world haven't had, which is "What if my programming language actually knew something". And, in fact, what if my user interface actually knew something? Not like Siri, which "knows" things, but what if it actually knew about me, and what if it actually knew about the contexts in which I'm trying to do things? That's an example of a leap. That set of ideas is actually old, and it was funded back when a lot of leap ideas were funded, and when the funding went away many of those ideas that weren't realized by about 1980 just haven't been worked on since, and that's something that'd be interesting to talk about.

"The Future Doesn't Have To Be Incremental": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gTAghAJcO1o

Not that I necessarily agree with the article's concludions, but if the thesis is supposed to be that Kay disagrees with how we use big data today as a jumping-off point for reexamination, then this and the reference to Likleider's communicating with aliens problem work just fine for me.
> 'Katsu' is short for Katsudon

Don't you mean short for katsuretsu (カツレツ), katakana for cutlet as adopted from the French?

> If you haven't had a Japanese curry in Japan, and you didn't make it from scratch, whatever you get will be a poor imitation. Real Japanese curry tastes both fresh, simple, vegetal and clean, and artificial, at the same time.

Meh. There are tons of diasporas across the world that would beg to differ; at the end of the day, it's inexpensive comfort food to this demographic.

Personally, I'm more picky with the panko and quality of pork. It's easy to mask imperfection with curry, and almost as easy to make something distinctly tasty on the cheap.
Thank you for reposting it, it's really neat!

A child learns to talk in about 150M tokens, GPT-4 needs 15T tokens. Humanity needed the total speech of 110B people to evolve to current level, which comes about 51,395,437,500,000,000,000 tokens, about 3.4 million times more than GPT-4's training run, and 342M times more than a child needs to learn.

That is to show the relative cost between imitation and discovery. Evolution is on the order of 0.3 trillion times slower than catching up by imitation.
But if the growth rate of usage in a certain sector seems to outpace everything else, that can give us clues about how those trends may have to change in the future.
Do you ever wonder where that electricity comes from? It might be worth checking out if you’re not convinced that finding ways to stay efficient in the face of enormous technological growth is worthwhile.
Whenever anyone points out that what LLMs are doing is definitely not how a brain works the AI people respond with "maybe it's going to be better!"
WiFi uses a different protocol than classic Ethernet, with "Collision Avoidance" instead of "Collision Detection". The reason is that one WiFi station cannot know what sources of radio interference exist at the other stations of a network, because it may hear only a part of them at its location.

So all remnants of the original Ethernet could be removed from wired Ethernet, which does not need layer 2 protocols, while keeping adequate layer 2 protocols for wireless communications. Besides WiFi, there are also long-range point-to-point wireless links, where directive antennas are used at both ends. For these, there is no difference from wired links, so they do not need layer 2 protocols.
You didn't waste your time.
The energy market doesn't price in externalities and is deeply broken. It is subsidized heavily by the public and by future generations.
For sure, probably test it over the weekend. I've dealt with k8s virtualization before and as a result, my current system uses contextual auto configuration for all it's services which makes it very easy to lift it from one kubernetes context to another, or even a docker only environment as it's often the case with CI.

However my primary challenge is chronic cluster under utilization after having rewriten the bulk of the system in Rust. Therefore virtualizating the cluster makes the most sense. I think Google Cloud conducted a study that found that the bulk, like 75%, of their K8s customer over provision by a wide margin. So there is definitely a market for cluster virtualization and even more so for multi tenancy.

Seems a loooong stretch to say the least.
Why wouldn’t an insurance company want to keep 20% of premiums covering ransom payments ?

They stand to loose future premiums if paying ransoms is NOT broadly seen as a viable option.

Sure, in the short term, they hate customers that make a lot of claims. But those claims, in aggregate, are the fuel for their 20% skimming…

If nobody paid ransom, why would they want insurance coverage? And if no insurance covered it, they wouldn’t be able to skim off the corresponding premiums…

LLMs are reversing language from text. Language is as much an extension of the brain as the retina is. The words are arbitrary but the deeper levels are closer to rubbing your neurons on a listener’s ear drum. Why would a brute force simulation be anywhere as efficient as the original hardware?
It looks like a Reveal.js presentation. I wouldn't say I saw “slides”, but rather a single slide, which is a poor indication that it's a slideshow (which needs to be navigated with the arrow keys or with the arrow buttons in the bottom right). A website that doesn't show more information on scrolling down is incredibly poorly designed.

Do you also believe that gerber should remove pictures of cute babies from their baby food bottles?
I find it interesting to estimate on tokens so we can meaningfully compare people with LLMs.
Here to put in my love for Linux plug. Manjaro XFCE for older machines is nice. Manjaro KDE if you have a decent machine with lots of RAM. Rolling updates, so as things are new, you have them. Install from community repos (AUR) and installs straight from Github for latest.

MX Linux is debian (remember debian is 5 versions behind but stable, and audited repos). Lightweight, makes a decent little hacker station.

Ubuntu sells security now. But, it's ubuntu, it's heavily supported.

User friendly go with Manjaro, Fedora, things will work out of the box, but for the love of linux, try all of the distros. Find the ones you love.

It's the year of desktop Linux! Be one with the Tux!
TL;DR

> With the introduction of version 24.3 in November, we are retiring our Core offering and introducing a new Enterprise licensing structure for self-hosted users, also applied to new patch releases of versions 23.1 and later. This new structure will provide all users with the robust database capabilities found previously only in the self-hosted Enterprise license. CockroachDB will remain entirely source code available. Note that there will be no change for customers of our cloud platform.

Holy moly are Teenage Engineering assholes from a consumer rights standpoint and probably violating US consumer laws in multiple ways. I can't think of the last time I saw a company so consumer-hostile.

These clowns are charging more than one of the most cutting edge laptops on the market. Don't tell me "it's the software that you're paying for" because Ableton Live is $600. You can literally buy Ableton Live and a Macbook Air for what that thing costs. I'd certainly expect consumer policies less slimy than a used car dealer for that kind of hipster markup.

The internals say "If you can read this, your warranty is gone", a lawyer (or judge) would laugh at them for. And the way they put it feels almost abusive. I mean... they actually paid extra money to print that on the cable. https://shred.zone/cilla/page/503/cap3.jpg

Then read through the terms and conditions on the site. It's...a trip. There's a forced arbitration clause which you have to email them to opt out of. Forced/mandatory arbitration has been ruled explicitly illegal under Magnuson Moss by the courts.

From the "what is not covered":

> (f) repair or attempted repair by anyone other than or approved by teenage engineering;

BZZZT, another Magnuson Moss Act violation. Thanks for playing!

> if you believe your product is defective and covered by the product warranty, you must notify us promptly by submitting a message at support.teenage.engineering/hc/en-us/requests/new, as soon as possible after you have discovered the defect, but in no case later than two months after discovering the defect.

You have two months to report a defect? What the fuck for? There's no legitimate reason for this beyond having yet another excuse to deny a warranty claim.

They have "waiver of implied warranties" which is likely not legal in many jurisdictions and at the very least yet another asshole move. If you're a manufacturer and you feel the need to waive implied warranties, my question is: "Have you instead tried making a product that isn't shit?"

One path to look at for your goal is to build for a strategic acquisition. Find a dominant application platform like that isn’t already saturated. Like CAD, or another high value software vertical (but not iOS or Salesforce). Build something their customers want but that the platform has never delivered (customer research required, but you’ve narrowed the list so that be more approachable). Go to the platform’s user conference (they’ll have one) and sell some. Most importantly, try to connect with the highest racking folks you can in the product team and make sure they know what you’ve built. If your user base grows a couple years in a row, they’ll write the check.
I'm already seeing it. Our BE team is now expected to churn out FE applications.

BE will generate FE templates and to wire it up to the API they built

And those processes largely reflected the whims of those states voters.

But it is a junior dev and changing the UX won't fix that. That's why the proactive, non-blocking, easy-to-dismiss design is so effective. The cost of failure is extremely low. The moment you switch to a UX where you have to push a button and wait, the acceptable failure rate goes way down.

I find that difficult to reconcile with chess grandmaster calorie consumption.

> Polard, this company that tracks heart rates, monitored chess players during a tournament and found out that this 21-year-old Russian grandmaster, Mikhail Antipov, had burned 560 calories in two hours, which we found out was roughly what Roger Federer would burn in one hour of singles tennis.
If your adversary is a nation state, you've already lost.

Which gives me another opportunity to quote from my favourite Usenix paper:

"In the real world, threat models are much simpler (see Figure 1). Basically, you’re either dealing with Mossad or not-Mossad. If your adversary is not-Mossad, then you’ll probably be fine if you pick a good password and don’t respond to emails from ChEaPestPAiNPi11s@ virus-basket.biz.ru. If your adversary is the Mossad, YOU’RE GONNA DIE AND THERE’S NOTHING THAT YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT. The Mossad is not intimidated by the fact that you employ https://. If the Mossad wants your data, they’re going to use a drone to replace your cellphone with a piece of uranium that’s shaped like a cellphone, and when you die of tumors filled with tumors, they’re going to hold a press conference and say “It wasn’t us” as they wear t-shirts that say “IT WAS DEFINITELY US,” and then they’re going to buy all of your stuff at your estate sale so that they can directly look at the photos of your vacation instead of reading your insipid emails about them. "

Figure 1:

Threat: Ex-girlfriend/boyfriend breaking into your email account and publicly releasing your correspondence with the My Little Pony fan club

Solution: Strong passwords

Threat: Organized criminals breaking into your email account and sending spam using your identity

Solution: Strong passwords + common sense (don’t click on unsolicited herbal Viagra ads that result in keyloggers and sorrow)

Threat: The Mossad doing Mossad things with your email account

Solution:
• Magical amulets?
• Fake your own death, move into a submarine?
• YOU’RE STILL GONNA BE MOSSAD’ED UPON

It's illegal in the US under the Magnuson Moss act (not the text, but if they deny a warranty claim.)

If you think that's bad, read the terms and conditions and warranty. I ranted about it in another comment so I won't repeat it here, but they seem to be going very much out of their way to be as big a bunch of dicks as they can be.
