Definitely on a twisty and/or hilly road you don’t want to pass if you can see above or around. But there are lots of places in the country where you pass if you can see the oncoming cars are far enough away. And you are usually passing a truck or RV going 40 so it’s not that hard.

However, I’m so glad I live in an urban area now where such driving skills aren’t really needed much anymore. I’d defer to people living in rural areas that do this many times a day.

It's nice that you can shake off any water from them and they are instantly dry and also that you can thoroughly clean them.
What you mean by "project" is a service. A service includes the Python interpreter. Choosing and provisioning the interpreter seems out of scope for pip or any other Python-specific tooling IMO. What if your service needs another interpreter like Ruby, or a database, message broker etc? Your Python tool won't help with that. This is what docker, and higher-level orchestrators like docker compose and kubernetes, and pyinstaller are for.

That is a very simplistic perspective of 'capitalism', it is a bit more nuance than that. It typically requires intervention to prevent it from destroying the economy because of insider trading, liquidity, and monopolist practices. The only criticism you say about it mirror aspect of our-selves that we don't like to admit. It isn't perfect but people are not perfect how-ever based on how fast we're pull people out poverty, you have to admit its pretty good!
I don't know about copilot but I've seen typos from ChatGPT (although it was english, not code)
The first time I asked ChatGPT to write a function, have it run it and repeat until the function meets given test cases, in one shot, was pretty cool.
Well, GitHub, Google, and many others, allow you to bypass 2FA by using an alternate method. For example, GitHub will send a prompt to their app on your phone, if you’re trying to log in to the website. I believe Google can send a similar prompt to YT or GMail apps, although I don’t use Google anymore.

I understand you’re frustrated, and clearly, Uber not allowing you to create another account is the crux of the issue here. That and the fact you didn’t save your backup codes.

For what it’s worth, I use 2 yubikeys that are either used for webauthn or TOTP. In addition, I write down every single backup code (yes, manually) in a notebook. This is in addition to my passwords being in a password manager.

If I lose my primary yubikey, I still have a backup one. I just need to go recover it (which, granted, requires me to go back to $HOME_COUNTRY first). If I lose both yubikeys, I can still recover accounts with the backup codes. If I lose all three, then yes, I am fully aware I won’t recover the accounts. That’s exactly as I designed it.

The correct advice to retain from this event is: test your backups. Your backups are worthless if you never check their contents. You are absolutely right: if you lose the backup codes and then lose the 2FA access, you’re screwed. The only way around this is to verify whether you have the backup codes on a regular basis.

You cannot switch to linux if your work is done in proprietary software, ie Adobe.
From ecosystem point of view I think all language specific package managers are crap. Instead of fragmenting the wider ecosystem on language boundaries, we should be looking more for language independent solutions. Nix is cool, as are buck2/bazel.
>I look forward to your explanation of how the temperature of Bob's Raspberry Pi poses a threat to his employer.

Hmm, anything like this can be used as part of side channel if an attacker is able to influence the temperature of Bob's RPi.
Show me that copilot never makes a mistake or introduces variables that never have been initialized...
And this is why people continue to do it. And at that, with such a discrepancy, why not? Proof of concept, you know if it adds value and makes money, enough money to pay $20k.
> The conventional wisdom is that it is difficult to achieve real gains from SIMD.

This has been my experience often times I misunderstood how much can be gained by using SIMD, and preparing the data to be "eaten" by SIMD instructions is not trivial. I have many times attempted to use just to profile and see it didn't improve things at all and made the code really hard to understand.

Kudos for Erin here this is really hard work and it's great it paid off well and gave good results here!
using matrix.to means:

* the webserver hosting matrix.to can see your browser’s IP and user agent as it connects to it. (this could be improved by connecting to matrix.to via an overlay network of some kind, or simply using matrix URIs instead)

* it cannot see the room/user being linked to, as this is deliberately hidden in a url fragment from the server

* it cannot see details about the room/user being linked to (eg the icon or room name); it optionally lets the client chose to grab this from a given homeserver, but the service itself never sees this data.

In other words, it was written with privacy in mind.
No serious Java code uses booleans to indicate failure or success. It's on the same level as not using a language's standard variable naming scheme. It's not wrong, but something experienced Java developers working on good code will immediately notice.

In good Java code you would return either void to indicate side effects or the newly saved user. Exception handling should be done outside the function, because depending on the context you might retry etc.

The main idea is to check if people who say they are very experienced understand conventions and have experience with common Java libraries.
I hate this type of communication too, including templates and chatbots.

It was just an example, though.
author (from 2020) here:

This is exactly true: the watch offers a kind of "security by obscurity" most better known watches lack.

It is a "if you known you know" thing. At the same time it is a very hard sell (for any potential thief looking for quick money) as the watch is unique in its configuration and mostly "meaningless" for other people (rather than me).
You are getting downvoted but you are right, a typo in a variable that already exists in a file like this is not the failure mode for LLMs. The failure mode is logic bugs, making up methods / functions.
> Language models aren’t AI no matter how hard you squint.

While you are free to make up any definition you want on the spot, so are others. Yes, language models are just plain old boring machine learning like any other, but machine learning is a subset of what most people consider to be the area of AI.

> When we get actual AI (not counting on anytime soon) it will be more than the annoyed developer that loses their job

Again, while you can define things however you please, so can everyone else. This is what most people would consider AGI, not AI.
Just because it’s unlikely doesn’t mean we should go straight for conspiracies.

> Advertising is annoying, but tracking is evil and I hope initiatives like this can pave the way to having ads while not compromising user privacy.

This is wishful thinking. As long as ads exists they are going to grab as much information about you as possible. All this does is give them additional information to add to whatever they are already doing.
It also had the world’s tallest aluminium mast, which snapped, upsetting the balance. Windows broke so flooding commenced.
That’s too bad
I am so sorry for what happened to your brother and your family.

The hospital is directly responsible for your cousin's death.

The fact that they assured the mother that they'll keep him, specifically told her to come the next day, and then forcibly discharged him at 2am without either calling his mother or even providing mother's contact to him should be grounds for criminal prosecution.

This is beyond negligence. They lied to the mother and knowingly forced him out when they were responsible for his well-being.

It would've cost them $0.00 to dial his mom's number. The fact that he asked for his mom's phone and they refused means they did it on purpose. This sounds very much like and indication of malicious intent to me.

I hope your family sues the bejeesus out of the hospital, and that someone will get a felony charge over this.

This hospital mot merely betrayed the trust of your family. It is literally a public health hazard. It should not continue existing.
I’m glad you found it useful! It was a really fun project to build and I was always surprised at how many users it attracted.

Thanks for your replying, it's great to know that you're very open to see what Firefox forks are doing.

And I guess threads like this is a great place to gather user opinions.

I think in this thread, people did talk about Split View a lot (link: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41306665), can you talk to the team about this feature ? Considering it's getting a lot of comment, people seem to want it a lot.

That’s awesome, it’s always exciting to hear how others used the app and the kind of monitors they were able to build for their communities.
Oh for crying out loud, I obviously mean these specific mistakes. If you have worked in any capacity with LLMs like this you would have seen them variables or suddenly switch up the convention of how they're written.

Certainly if you are in a conversation mode after a few back and forths this happens from time to time.

I am just not going to spend my time digging to previous prompts of code I might not want to share just to satisfy a random internet person .
Yeah, and those mirrors are hosted by countries/providers that don't enforce the law, like Belize. Best we can do is get them delisted from Google.
No, algebraic integers are a different set than algebraic numbers. (A subset.)

Algebraic integers are much cooler, since there is a number theory on them: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_integer . (And also because the most basic facts about it, like that it forms a ring, are not trivial to prove, that's a good sign for a concept to be cool and useful.)

These two number sets are more or less in a relationship like regular integers (with a number theory), and rational numbers. In fact A = O/Z where A denotes the set of algebraic numbers, O denotes the set of algebraic integers, and Z denotes the set of integers.

I just checked this config value on my Firefox Nightly and it's already preset to false. Interesting.
A significant part of my time is spent jumping through hoops created by big suppliers, such as Apple, Microsoft and Google. It drives me crazy. Support can be annoying, but at least I feel I am helping people.

BTW I couldn't get a renewal on a US government database because my business address was different in 2 other databases by exactly 1 comma character. This was blocking a big order. It took over a month, several phone calls and chats, lot of emails and an 'expedited' payment to the UK government to get this sorted. Fun times.
> not sure how they should be funded to avoid these things

From donations and government grants. You know, like proper non-profits that aren't trying to LARP as a SV unicorn.
The models I've used don't make typos on variable names that already exist in the context. Typos are not the failure mode, this is literally the easiest text prediction task they can do.

Damn...
I used kagi for a while, but it honestly just didn't return great results. Maybe I'll try it out again and see if it's gotten any better...
Agreed though I see the current situation as just yet another result of the inherent flaws in human reasoning where some significant percentage of the population can't reason sufficiently well to make reasonably optimal choices (e.g., conservative science denialism).

This is why we, as a population, won't agree to curb CO2 sufficiently to address climate change but instead will simply adjust and, maybe eventually, accept geoengineering based approaches. That said, the next 10 years will be telling in how conservatives react to much higher home owner's insurance premiums...

We hired a new guy at work. In one of his first tasks he had chosen to write some bash, and it was pure nonsense. I mean it contained things like:

if [ -z "${Var}+x" ]

Where I can see what the author was trying to do, but the code is just wrong.

I dont mind people not knowing stuff, especially when it's essentially Bash trivia. But what broke my heart was when I pointed out the problem, linked to the documentation, but recieved the response "I dont know what it means, I just used copilot" followed by him just removing the code.

What a waste of a learning opportunity.
If no hard versions are given, but only e.g. <= 2.1, pip will download EVERY SINGLE VERSION until 2.1 to look for metadata. That easily can take hours if it happens multiple times.
The Department of War was not renamed the “Department of Defense”. Up to and during the Second World War, the Department of War and Department of the Navy were both cabinet level departments, with the DoW having control of the Army and the DoN having control of the Navy. The National Security Act of 1947 reorganized the US military by splitting the Department of War into the Department of the Army and the Department of the Air Force and making those two departments, as well as the Department of the Navy, subordinate to an overall Department of Defense. (This was also when the Air Force became a separate branch from the Army.)
Last night I watched The 'Venture Bros.: Radiant Is the Blood of the Baboon Heart'. If it wasn't for the dialogue below I would have been very confused by the use of 'complications' in TFA!

Ben: Hey kid, I wanna give you something. Your grand-pap gave me this before your dad was born.

Hank: Is it more dumb news? You gonna tell me who my mom isn't?

Ben: Nah. Just a watch. GMT Master. Venture Blue Dial. Tells the time in two time zones.

Hank: It's heavy.

Ben: That fourth hand there, the little date window, those are called complications. Complications make a watch special. More complications the more valuable. Read the engraving Jonas put on there.

Hank: [reads] "Elige Tua."

Ben: Eh. Close enough. It's latin for "Choose your family." Blood doesn't make a family. Love does. Your grandpap knew that. Choose your family, and remember, the complications make it special.
I said that linux mostly works out of the box, but your "edge cases" where in this case:

All lenovo yoga x1 models from the 8. gen onwards with windows preinstalled e.g. over 2 years

All lenovo carbon x1 models from the 10. gen onwards with windows preinstalled e.g. over 3 years

I'm pretty sure it also affects all newer hp and dell models since at least ~2023

It's great that your choice of laptops are never the ones that are broken, but then again, I never said linux never works.

Even if you set aside the webcam problem, the lenovo laptops who where always called out for their good linux support had problems:

The 2016 yoga x1 model couldn't get to sleep (s3i problem which many laptops had) and if it good back from sleep it need a special command to reconnect trackpad and trackpoint.

There where some special patches to make it work and after about a year it worked, still not a possibility for non technical people

The 2016 thinkpad x1 carbon gen. 6 model sometimes needs a special command to reconnect the trackpad and trackpoint, think that got fixed after ~3 years.

Neither of theses devices have a working fingerprint sensor, I can't even think of one that works with linux

Neither of these devices had a supported mobile (lte) modem, as the built in modem wasn't supported and you can't change it because the bios has only whitelisted the preinstalled model.

The new s3i sleep modus also made it impossible for linux laptops to sleep for about a year until it was fixed.

Did all of this get better over time?

Yes

Will every big new hardware thing still mean that some linux things are broken for some time?

Yes

Again, linux works for most of the hardware most of the time, but this will bite you when you expect certain things or devices to work.
Imho you can outright ban quantamagazine articles while you're at it. It's hilarious that there is an intersection of tabloid press and theoretical physics, but it's also a massive waste of everyone's time.
Pretty interesting to see how this stuff is holding up. The market is evolving rapidly currently with absolutely massive amounts of wind, solar, and battery being deployed everywhere.

What's odd in Texas is that they are resisting the notion of connecting to the rest of the US grid. This would allow them to import power cheaply when they need to and export power when they have too much of it. My guess is that they actually curtail a lot of energy at this point because there's simply too much of it most of the time.

A quick glance at the main page of gridstatus.io shows that right now California and Texas are burning a lot of gas while there is negative pricing due to wind delivering over capacity in the states in between. They are literally paying people to consume more power there while they are paying for huge amounts of gas to be burnt in California and Texas. It's night time there of course so, solar is out.

What's preventing states from doing the obvious thing here? The mid west could be exporting power at a profit right now and instead it has negative power. And California could not be burning many tons of gas right now because there's a surplus of power right next to it.
Original author here (from 2020):

Thanks! A watch (like any apparel) indeed functions as a communication piece (other than its function of time keeping).

Over the years of wearing it I have had only some folks inquiring about what it exactly is I am wearing. People ask out of honest curiosity, not because they suspect some value (because of a shiny logo or precious metal).

For what it is worth, in addition to the having the actual watch it is also nice to know the people who created it. It is a very small brand, you really have a chance of getting to know the "artists behind the creation". I like that as it adds to the (personal satisfaction) of the story of my watch.
I don't wholly disagree, but it's always a tad ironic to read "money is ruining the free/open internet" discussion on a free forum powered by VC money.
For what it's worth, I didn't mean "actually" in an either-or sense, but more in an unexpected-correlation sense. I tend to avoid ontological discussions on this topic.

English is not my native language, I sometimes miss the subtleties.
Yeah, something like that.
