> modern fridges <snip> run all the time(ish).

Genuinely curious - when did this become a thing? I have a couple of relatively recent fridges (less than 10 yrs old, and same model still sold today) that constantly cycle on/off, and spend more time off than they do on.

I'd imagine a variable speed system (like are available in inverter-based heat pumps today) could be designed to run nearly constantly, but the variability of things like room temp, fridge loading (empty fridges are less efficient than full ones), open/closing doors, and the addition of warm/hot things in the fridge would make it so there's always a need for cycling at some level...
Does anyone know where we can find a copy of the official order? So far, I only found the previous one (https://noticias.stf.jus.br/postsnoticias/stf-intima-elon-mu... has a link to it).

(The twitter link isn't working for me, it only shows an error message followed by a reload link, so I don't know whether it has a link to a copy of the official order.)
I wanted to recommend Minisforum, as I have a um560, that is powered through usb-c. But that is not available anymore... So those kind of machines exist...

> That's one hell of a specific accusation - that they looked at her age alone and determined solely based on that to show her that specific video?

I suppose I did not phrase that very carefully. What I meant is that they chose to surface the video because a specific young girl visited the site -- one who had a specific history of watched videos.

> In any case, a tragedy happened. But putting the blame on TikTok seems more like an attack on TikTok and not an attempt to reign in the industry at large.

It's always going to start with one case. This could be protectionism but it very well could instead be the start of reining in the industry.
This has been controversial in Brazil - not 100% clear cut. While suspending some of accounts making threats should be supported, de Moraes has been also going after what seem to be legit political activity

https://www-gazetadopovo-com-br.translate.goog/vida-e-cidada...

Furthermore, instead of banning the accounts upfront, for disputed casese, it would seem to be a fair to have court process for the people involved and let them defend their behaviour.

> Last week, the Supreme Court justices ruled on six appeals filed by Twitter, Telegram, TikTok, Google (owner of YouTube) and Meta (the group that controls Facebook and Instagram) against Moraes' decision in a virtual session. They all unanimously considered that blocking all channels, profiles and accounts of a person or party is an act of prior censorship, something expressly prohibited by the Constitution and also clearly rejected by the Internet Civil Rights Framework, in respect of freedom of expression.

No, those haven't been invented yet.

What we actually have are LLMs are still chock-full of biases and errors and hallucinations. Hell, we still haven't figured out how to stop them from being racist in nasty ways.

What the AI here will actually do is try to "faithfully" make something that contains correlations it's seen before, even when the result is not what happened.

For monetization we'd like to keep the editor free for people to use and may monetize through add-on services like hosting. The way I like to think about it is that we may monetize on convenience points but keep things open-source so if you wanted to do things custom, then you can if you'd like.

On the video – thanks for the note there! We can certainly show it to do something more detailed as well than just a background color change. The good thing is that any designs done with Onlook still go through the usual code review process for any project, so hopefully people won't accept non-compliant design changes. In the event that they do, it'll be easier to fix things with Onlook.

On the lines of keeping things compliant with design systems, I'm excited about our ability to surface design tokens from a codebase, so users can always be sure they are selecting the right colors in the right scopes. That's something we still have yet to tackle, but have an open issue for:

I think you're misunderstanding what "removing pandas" means.

You can still compute on DataFrames, it'll just be with something other than Pandas itself, probably DuckDB, Polars, or DataFusion.

So, the bridge was there, is there, and isn't going anywhere.

What changed ?
Nah. HN is not the same as these others.

TikTok. Facebook. Twitter. YouTube.

All of these have their algorithms specifically curated to try to keep you angry. YouTube outright ignores your blocks every couple months, and no matter how many people dropping n-bombs you report and block, it never endingly pushes more and more.

These company know that their algorithms are harmful and they push them anyway. They absolutely should have liability for what their algorithm pushes.
OP here, happy to answer any questions on it!
That's what jury instructions are for. The judge can instruct the jury to ignore pretty much any facts and consider any subset of what really happened that they want. So they'd just instruct "did they access the system? Were they authorized? If the answer to the first question is yes, and to the second is no, the verdict is guilty, ignore all the rest". The jury won't be from the HN crowd, it would be random people who don't know anything about CFAA or computer systems, it will be the easiest thing in the world to convict. Those guys got so lucky DHS exhibited unusually sensible behavior, they could have ruined their lives.
> If Ibis moves away from pandas, then it just means that I am less likely to try Ibis because there is no bridge.

the bridge is that Ibis accepts pandas as input and has a `to_pandas()` method as output

Ibis also still depends on pandas (and thus numpy) internally. also, Ibis was created by the creator of pandas, and the lead developer (and other contributors) have also worked on pandas. the Ibis team understands pandas and the broader Python data ecosystem very well

> It's just tabular data. So what if I have to wait a few more milliseconds to get my result.

usually as scale grows, milliseconds -> seconds -> minutes -> hours -> days. at some point along the way having a dataframe library that can scale up without rewriting your code might be useful. but if you're dealing with small tabular data and pandas meets your needs, it's a great library to use and stick with!
TikTok, Inc., via its algorithm, recommended and promoted videos posted by third parties to ten-year-old Nylah Anderson on her uniquely curated “For You Page.” One video depicted the “Blackout Challenge,” which encourages viewers to record themselves engaging in acts of self-asphyxiation. After watching the video, Nylah attempted the conduct depicted in the challenge and unintentionally hanged herself. -- https://cases.justia.com/federal/appellate-courts/ca3/22-3061/22-3061-2024-08-27.pdf?ts=1724792413

An algorithm accidentally enticed a child to hang herself. I've got code running on dozens of websites that recommends articles to read based on user demographics. There's nothing in that code that would or could prevent an article about self-asphyxiation being recommended to a child. It just depends on the clients that use the software not posting that kind of content, people with similar demographics to the child not reading it, and a child who gets the recommendation not reading it and acting it out. If those assumptions fail should I or my employer be liable?
On the topic of structured logs, can anyone point me towards where I might learn more about what people have learned over time?

Congratulations on the launch - this looks great and I've been waiting for years for something like this! As a researcher who mostly uses Python, and explores/navigates a large number of repos for a short time, often written by other researchers not necessarily trained in software best practices, I was always frustrated (and surprised) that there was no VS Code extension or tool that gave me a quick overview/visualization to get a high level gist of different modules and code/data flow!

I tried this with a bunch of small open-source repos and it works great! I imagine using LLM might be a hard no for some people/enterprises - any plans to use stand-alone licenses with small local models? It seems like for what LLM is doing here (if I understand it right, help label the modules in natural language and perhaps help organize them into this hierarchy/modules) you don't necessarily need a SoTA model, right?

Also, this could be coming from LLMs, but I see that the visualizations are more biased towards terminology used in web-dev? (for example, one of my robot related repo was organized into front-end, back-end, etc. with I guess is kinda right but not exactly lol). It would be nice to see an interactive visualization where I can iterate on the initial viz with information I know, e.g., I drag and drop a module or rename it and then you probably do another pass with this feedback and LLMs and update my overall visualization with more domain specific labels and partitions?

Edit: Exploring CodeViz on a few more repos, and it seems like you have a set of hardcoded labels for the highest hierarchy in the architecture diagram? (so far, I've only seen Users, Databases, Backend, Frontend, and Shared Components). I am guessing this is something passed on in the prompts? It'll be nice to allow user to define their own set of labels/partitions at one or more levels and then try to create an architecture visualization that fits into these labels/constraints (although I am guessing at some point you have to be wary of hallucinations?)
Most used PCs for sale started off as business machines. They usually buy from the big brands that can provide enterprise warranty support and volume discounts. AMD released Ryzen in 2017. Add up the time for AMD to convince Dell/HP/Lenovo to design, qualify, and release an AMD model. Add the time for significant uptake into the market. Finally add three years for the AMD PCs to get retired from office use.
You make the length of the business end of the needle protruding from the tip of the iron as short as possible, wrap copper braid around tip+neddle, put on a very small hose clamp on top, then turn on the iron and give the copper braid as much solder as it can absorb.

Then you start soldering, after a few successful ops you figure this is going to be a walk in the park - and are promptly attitude readjusted by a blob of solder dripping off the iron and onto your PCB.

Did succeed in the end, though.
Yes, the cost of GENERATING electricity will undoubtedly be cheaper at the industrial scale level than on your rooftop.

But that generated electricity is likely to be a region very far from your (or someone else's) consumption - needing a lot of money to lay transmission and distribution lines to the end consumer.

Co-locating with consumption makes the difference in total costs far closer.

Very location dependent, but please don't dismiss offhand without considering the very real transmission costs.
Step one: the police report is hearsay that does not fall under the official records exception by design.

Step two: should the state insist on offering this hearsay for some purpose other that the truth, notice:

“And at the end, they sign off on the report, confirming that they ‘are willing to testify to its accuracy and completeness,’”

Find an inaccuracy in the record. There will doubtless be one. If there isn’t, why would we dispute the record?

Step three: use the inconsistency to impeach the officer. Now the whole police report is unreliable and we are back to testimony and BWC footage.

It’s not like they’re deleting the BWC data after they make the LLM summary… right?

> the vast majority of solar generation is consumed on site

I don't believe this is true for a vast swath of residential solar. In spite of HN's love of remote work, a lot of homes are mostly or completely empty during the day, with energy use ramping up in the evenings as people return home.

This results in homes 'selling' electricity to the grid during the day, and buying it back in the evening and overnight.

The thermal 'inertia' of concentrated solar power may be cost competitive with PV solar and batteries.

You can use the mass of the concentrator target as a thermal battery effectively, as the conversation of sunlight to electrical energy is not instantaneous like solar PV.

I'm asking for an "Open Source AI" and Meta and everyone supporting them is convinced its impossible in our lifetimes :( We are living in the Dark Ages where Information = $$$.

Fun app, I'm having a good time!

The OCR has a lot of false positives, though. "Truck" definitely was not what I was looking for, but it makes up a significant amount of the search. "culo" fuzzy/exact results were also surprisingly disappointing :) .

If there's a way to change the text-matching accuracy and add this filter to the front-end, I'd be lost here forever. Switching locations would also be a fun way to scale this up. Throw an Adsense add on there and you're looking at a decent passive income!
> FlyCASS seems to be run by one person

A key difference, to me at least, is that it's not a made up word (well, no more than any other established word). Ambiguity over its pronunciation comes from lack of familiarity with the source language. That's fine, we all need to learn, but to insist the native speaker is pronouncing it wrong seems a bit odd to me.

> and the staggering complexity of what's possible to put inside square brackets and how to decipher its meaning

I might not be aware of everything that's possible -- the usage I have of it doesn't give me an impression of staggering complexity. In fact I've found the functionality quite basic, and have been using pd.MultiIndex.from_* quite extensively for anything slightly more advanced than selecting a bunch of values at some level of the index.
That's what I expected too, and this immediately reminded me of Wikileak's "all pages from 9/11" site.

It is possible to make a mechanical angle bisector. Think of a compass for drawing circles but with a 3rd arm bisecting the angle. If you attach the bisector normal to a mirror, you can point one leg at the sun and the other at a target. An array of these would require linkages to aim all inputs parallel toward the sun and all outputs fixed toward the target - the outputs don't have to be parallel just have each pointing at the target. 2-axis actuation to move all mirrors as needed. Not sure if this has ever been tried, it's just an idea I had some time ago.
could not have said it more succinctly, imo.

i'm inclined to believe Orwell would have disagreed with OP, and would be asking himself -- why is there such a distinct push by those who benefit from the reframing, to reframe what Open Source means (compared to its already established meaning).
There is research coming out that vertical solar panels are more efficient. I think part of it comes from lower temps allowing for more efficient operating. No tracking or pointing required. Less cleaning as its not a flat surface for dust or fall impacts.

The RPi zero 2 is nowhere near powerful enough to be used for multiple purposes as any of the above machines.

It could probably run a single-task relatively well, like PiHole or something, but otherwise it's in a completely different performance category. Like an order of magnitude.

So 6W idle for J5005 would put it on the same level of efficiency.
