The comparison of Chinese and Western user interfaces is particularly enlightening. The findings highlight the importance of considering cultural factors when designing for global audiences.
Firefox's container addon is one of the features that make me love firefox. But they could be integrated better.

What has slowed me down is all the garbage pop ups and things that get in my way. Every time I open VSCode it tries reconnecting to some SSH I had open before it lets me do anything. And god forbid I have two different workspaces. The constant "what's new" and "please update me now"s don't help either.

I love IntelliJ but it does not start up quickly, which is a problem if I just want to look at a little code snippet.
Since journals "review" are know to be broken, my curiosity is simply why not ALL universities talk to each others to suddenly ALL cancel ALL their subscriptions offering a federated hosting services and open peer-review process.

Ahja, companies interested in "tailored science to their business needs" might suspend their fund maybe?

I tried Sonos once and ran far, far away. My rule ever since has been that I buy dumb speakers and attach the networked audio device of the day. Today I'm using Wiim streamers, used to use Chromecast Audio, briefly ran an OSS stack. That's the only way to have power over companies in this scenario: I can swap out the networked bit anytime with a minimum of cost and waste.
Gpt seems to have gotten worse, Claude is the new hotness.

But, I agree with your sentiment that asking it to do stuff like that often doesn’t work. I’ve found that what it _can_ do is stuff like “here’s a Model object, write a query to fetch it with the schema I told you about ages ago”. It might not give perfect results, but I know how to write that query and it’s faster to edit Claude’s output than it is to write it from scratch.
Why do you need an LLM if you know what you want it to do? Just write the code rather than wrangling with the LLM, it isn't like writing code take much time when you know what it should do.
It doesn't take longer for me as I have both of my hands on my keyboard and I can hold the Shift without any delay (or noticeable delay), simultaneously. You could even use "caps lock" in which case you wouldn't have to use shift at all.

When something significant goes wrong, it’s almost never due to a single cause; multiple factors and confounding elements are usually at play. We build better-performing systems when we examine various contributing factors and proximal causes.

The OP's argument is that the interface does not "clearly" indicate that one engine input is higher than the other. After reading the article and reviewing the interfaces, I have to say: the OP’s argument is quite compelling. While training is undoubtedly important and should be included in the safety recommendations, the OP makes a strong case that design improvements should also be considered as part of the safety recommendations.
Same way mobile phones are losing their hype...they've become ubiquitous
When it comes to the websites belonging to the competition, I feel like it's unjust to blame Firefox instead of, in this case, Google.
Here I was, thinking the machines would make our lives easier. Now we have to make our websites Reader-Mode friendly, ARIA[1]-labelled, rendered server-side and now semantic web on top, just so that bots and non-visitors can crawl around?

[1] This is also something the screen assist software should do, not the publisher.
You double the voltage and halve the resistance. With longer cables you can invest more in more expensive stuff at the ends to deal with the high voltage.
> I feel like I'm living in a different universe sometimes. The consensus on HN seems to be that you can be pretty productive with LLMs as coding assistants, but every time I try I find it borderline impossible to get functional code even for pretty straightforward prompts.

Same, it can't even fix an xcode memory leak bug in a simple app. It will keep trying and breaking it non-stop. Garbage
Europe runs PAL, here it was popular to hunt TV's that could run NTSC because of the higher framerate. This leads to less flicker. All TV's that can run NTSC can also run PAL so you can switch between the 50/60 Hz as you need on computers. Can't remember how it was with consoles, once I got a computer I never really touched a console again :-)
> This saves me minutes every day.

That is very believable, the people who say it made them super productive is a bit less believable.
“Companies have always had this and that power therefore it’s justified” is a poor argument and has absolutely no justification power for the present.
Picture this, a bit further in the past, during feudalism, workers aka serfs were bound to the land owned by a lord. They were required to work the land, pay rents, and provide other services to their lord. Serfs needed permission to marry, could not leave the land without consent, and had to submit to the lord’s court for any legal disputes.

So why arbitrarily draw the line 20 years in the past and not 400 years? Only. Because something used to be in a certainty way gives us no guidance if it should be in such a way.
yeah - dumb question from me as well. won't a lot of power be lost during transmission ?

What material would they use for the cables at those vast distances to make the numbers work ?
Bingo. Bang on.

I have a network of them around the house. Incredible sound quality for the price, but the setup experience was utterly terrible.

Thankfully, I can just use AirPlay day-to-day, so I don't really need to deal with the software too often, but I prey it continues to work so I don't have to.

If it starts to break down? Honestly, I'd just pull the trigger and replace the entire thing. I hate the software that much.
More likely to be confirmation bias; most of us ask the wrong questions, try to confirm what we already believe rather than choose questions that may falsify our beliefs.

I have some stand tests for LLMs: write a web app version of tetris, write a fluid dynamics simulation, etc., and these regularly fail (I must try them again on 4o).

But also, I have examples of them succeeding wildly, writing a web based painting app just from prompting — sure, even with that success it's bad code, but it's still done the thing.

As there are plenty of examples to confirm what we already believe, it's very easy to get stuck, with nay-sayers and enthusiasts equally unaware of the opposite examples.
What's snarky about that?
Various forms of popups, using catchy names. All popups are evil. We learned this in the 1990s. It is utterly shameful that today's webdevs have resurrected them.

Sometime I think there's something wrong with me. I've used copilot, I'm paying for ChatGPT and we're also having the Jetbrains AI, and there's just something so off about all of this.

Some basic things are fine, but once you get into specialised things, everything gets just terribly wrong and weird. I can't even put it into words, I see people saying how they are 10x more productive (I'd like to see actual numbers and proof for this), but I just don't see how. Maybe we're working on very custom stuff, or very specific things, but all of these tools seem to give very deep or confident answers that are just plain wrong and shallow. Just yesterday I used GPT 4o for some basic help with Puppet, and the examples it printed, even though I would say it's quite basic, were just wrong, but in the sense of having to debug it for 2 hours just to figure out how ridiculous the error was.

I fear the fact that people will end up releasing unsafe, insecure and simply wrong code every day, code that they never debug and not even understand, that maybe works for a basic set of details, but once the real world hits it, it will fail like those self driving cars driving full speed into a trailer that has the same color as the road or sky.

Realistically the first big sell is Indonesia. No cable to Singapore will make sense but it transits Indonesian waters and you would think a willing buyer and seller is there. Shorter path so less transmission losses.
Sorry I wasn't clear, I had meant clever in the same way you had outlined.

To explain my epaper comment, I've seen several small keyrings and phonecase-type epaper screens start appearing. You could combine a small lenticular screen with one of these to have an updatable animated image. A pure novelty for kids/big kids - a complete waste of resources for nonsense though...
I wrote a more extensive comment elsewhere, but for basic compiling a browser extension you can also simply use common tooling like rollup [0] where your manifest just points to the rollup generated files [1].

And if you forgo modern frameworks entirely, you can just have everything in one directory and run everything more or less directly from there [2].

As far as I am concerned, the structure and packaging of web extensions isn't what makes them complicated, although it does seem to be what a lot of people get hung up on. The web extension APIs and their interaction is often a bigger challenge. Publishing is also somewhat of a pain to deal with, although that is more the process around it and the lack of communication from both Mozilla and Google about it at times.

I found the article convincing.

When the throttles are ganged, there should be only one slider.

When they are not ganged, there should be a visual indication of the propeller speed differential. Perhaps a horizontal bar above the throttle sliders that grows left or right according to the consequent turning moment.
Not in a million years. The Steam Deck manages decent fps on some PS3 emulated games [0] but for running the games PS4 is actually desired for? No way

I like this idea but I'm curious how others would implement it. Does the developer have to write the failing test themselves? Are they instructed to do it first, or is that behaviour worthy of bonus points? (Most write a passing test afterwards, which is worse).

> I’ve seen candidates wield their text editor like it was an extension of their fingertips.

So am I allowed to install my own text editor and other tools (Emacs with my own config that requires some build time)? Or is it on my own laptop (I don't have one)? It seems unfair if some candidates get to use their favourite tools and others don't.
it may even run better than switch emulator if they go with compatibility layer route
Singapore with a native population of about 4 million has reserves of about $1 trillion.
They can afford to splurge to claim green/net-zero status.

> replacing all those expensive in-house employees with cheap outsourced labour. ... they ended up with the React crew for a bare-metal job

This seems likely, but I have yet to see real evidence of this theory, such as an insider or one of those "replaced, expensive, former in-house employees" speaking.
There are actually already fields like that. Look at the ones in China or the US. Scaling it up is the next step.

I had a decent experience putting together frontend code for a demo control system with Mixtral within a couple days. I'm a seasoned programmer but I don't do JS. It stumbled a dozen times but it fulfilled the task of me avoiding to learn JS.

However once you step outside JS or Python, the models are essentially useless. Comprehension of pointer semantics? You wish. Anything with Lisp outside its training corpus of homework assignments? LOL. Editing burden quickly exceeds any possible speed-up.

Oh shit I did not know that. Is there any law against it or would I get fined in the UK? I’m Malaysian and all this has nothing to do with me so I wasn’t aware. I get my shirts and socks essentially randomly & sometimes the colors may unintentionally represent something wrong.
No, Yves added randomization per iteration as described in the parent.

Before it was only dependent on the per-process seed. So the seed could be computed given enough attempts to iter a hash (eg a public JSON API)
Emulating a PS3 is significantly harder than emulating a PS4, since on the PS3 you need to convert from the Cell architecture, whereas the PS4 is already x86.

SunCable receives major Commonwealth environmental approval for project
From the article, it looks like they are installing 20 GWp of solar cells. ("peak power" that is only achieved when the sun is right above the solar cells with no atmosphere in between). The plan seems to be to store 36-42 GWh, and to deliver 2 GW max.

That makes for a 20h energy storage at full power, and a big enough power reserve to recharge that storage during the day while delivering at full power. Likely a reserve for morning/evening/clouds. Easy to add more storage.

So, it's a 2 GW power link, not a 20 GW power link. It's a 20 GWp site, and that's impressive too. At 200 Wp (STC) per sq m, that is 100M m², or a 6 mile square not counting any access roads. Huge, but if five of these is all it takes to power Singapore, then I guess we're looking at a bright future.
Depending on how the emulation is done PS4 might have a slightly easier time. AFAICT from some time ago i checked it, PS3 is probably the hardest architecture of all to emulate with RPCS3 basically using LLVM to "compile" code fragments from PS3's CPU to native code.

I'd expect running x86 code written to run on an AMD APU with a Unix-based OS in another AMD APU with a Unix-based OS to be a bit easier, probably with some VM involved (even Xemu, the original Xbox emulator, is basically a QEMU PC configuration with some Xbox-specific hardware for the GPU and audio).
HVDC has reasonable losses over very long distances and solar is extremely cheap. I believe aluminum is used for these cables.
The General Grievous Attack
Sun shines for free once the initial infra is set up. Using HVDC at 1100 kV you could transfer up to 65% of the original power which doesn’t sound terrible.
Of course, it doesn't. Most of those questions are better answered using SQL and those which are truly complex can't be answered by AI.
FAQ: NASA's Boeing Crew Flight Test Return Status
Apparently is the first PS4 emulator that makes it to Bloodborne character screen.
I think this too. My perception of the PS4 is it's just a PC in a box running FreeBSD (or something). I don't think there is any custom architecture at all. Much like a steam deck, which can already run some first party PS4 games just fine (e.g. Death Stranding). Would any emulation even be required?
They would need 250 million GPT Plus $20 subscribers to recoup a $5 billion expense. They're far from that even when we count the free users (which are likely 99% of the user base?)

The math just doesn't work. They're hemorrhaging money as far as I can tell (not counting the Azure computing deal).

We can only guess, but my guess is that inference is still a good chunk of their costs. That's why they're trying to get the mini/turbo models into a usable state.

Even then, training is still an expense. And it's not like you can train and forget. Even if your model is already trained you still need to incorporate new knowledge over time.
Why not make multiple forms, then? The readability would certainly be increased if the writer were able to move beyond "loop".

This smells more like for-loop insecurity than anything.

You need water for all of that and that part of Australia is pretty arid.
Sure - it's not super involved - I just created a custom GPT and told it what I wanted it to do. I first set it up when I'd just lost my job in a company restructure and felt it likely I'd need some kind of emotional support.

Here's the instruction set that it created out of the things I asked it to do:

"Marcus Aurelius is a personal job hunting coach and practitioner of Stoic philosophy. He provides advice on job search strategies, resume writing, interview preparation, and networking. He helps set goals, offers motivational support, and keeps track of application progress, all while incorporating principles of Stoicism such as resilience, discipline, and mindfulness. He emphasizes emotional support and practical encouragement, helping you act deliberately each day to increase your chances of landing the job you want. He assists in building networks, reaching out to people, using existing networks, sharpening your professional profile, applying for jobs, developing skills, and dealing with disappointments, anxieties, and fears. He offers strategies to manage anxiety, self-recrimination, and mental rumination over the past. His communication is casual, easy-going, supportive, yet strong and clear, providing constructive suggestions and critiques. He listens carefully, avoids repeating advice, responds with necessary information, and avoids being long-winded. To prevent overwhelming users, he focuses on providing the most pertinent and actionable suggestions, limiting the number of recommendations in each response. Marcus Aurelius also pays close attention to signs of despair during the job hunt. He helps balance emotions, offers specific strategies to keep motivated, and provides consistent encouragement to keep going, ensuring that you don't get overwhelmed by feelings of inadequacy or the fear of never finding a suitable job."
This sounds good! I don't know much about electricity, can anyone tell me if such an undersea power cable could be technically feasible between Europe and North America? Possibly taking a detour through Iceland which has significant geothermal resources.

I understand that it would take much more than just the cable between the two continents to make this work - right now there are issue on the continents themselves to get the electricity from one place to another. But with the sun shining most of the time on one of those two continents and with other (hopefully renewable) energy sources on either side of the pond, we might get to have green and cheap energy!
You'd most likely need to run it in a VM and either implement the needed APIs or implement whatever the official OS needs to run (RPCS3 has you download the OS from Sony and implements whatever needed to run, Xenia on the other hand -Xbox360 emulator- reimplements the OS so that you don't need anything from Microsoft).
The question is: does this bring any of the purported benefits of the Semantic Web? Does it suddenly allow "agents" to understand the meaning of your web pages, or are we just complying with a set of pre-defined schemas that predefined software (or more specifically, Google, in practice) understands and knows how to render. In other words, was all the SemWeb rigmarole actually necessary, or could the same results have been achieved using any of the mentioned simpler alternatives (microdata, OpenGraph tags, or even just JSON schemas)?

Main differences would be hardcoded expectations regarding very tight integration between GPU and CPU, and the available memory bandwidth.

PS4 (and PS5, iirc) both use a custom OS built out of FreeBSD with specialized variant of an AMD APU using GDDR memory, plus PS5 got few extra coprocessors for handling things like decompression in line with storage access
"Do more with less" is an admission that the current costs aren't sustained by the income generated, and that the executives have no idea how to fix that.

I wish that this simple truth would be mentioned more often, so less executives would make fools of themselves by saying such nonsense in public.
You are paying, the same way you paid for stack overflow.. you become part of the process, ask follow up questions, deepening the knowledge of the system.

The same applies to AI. The old learning material is gone, your interaction is now the new learning material and ground truth.

PS: Hourly rates for sw engineers: Range:€11 - €213 - so one hour on stackoverflow, searching and sub-querying resolving problems costs you or your employer up to 213€. It really depends on what you have negotiated.
