> The overarching objective is to create a sophisticated simulation platform that mirrors the intricate composition of human milk, allowing for the formulation of personalized nutrition plans for infants, particularly those born prematurely.

I don't see any buzzwords there; simulation is an indispensable tool modern for biochemistry.

If you stopped reading at the (admittedly daft) acronym, it's worth keeping in mind that, outside computer circles, 'digital twin' now refers to any kind of simulation or tracking of a physical resource. This is not some nebulous proposal for a blockchain NFT of human milk, it's genuine scientific research.
Absent that, it looks like someone just forgot to fill in a template; it's a _terrible_ name, perhaps the worst bit of naming from an ergonomics point of view since Google decided to create an un-google-able programming language.

Good, free TURN servers probably don't exist because the protocol is basically open proxy as a service --- who wants to run that without limits?

But something like this is a selective forwarder, so as long as you can find someplace to host it that can get an ip:port to listen on, all your users/compatriots should be able to connect to it, and you're ready to go.

Show HN: OpenAI React Native Client
I recently published a new package on npm that brings the OpenAI APIs to React Native Expo without polyfills.

Today the library supports chat streaming, normal chat completions and file upload with more endpoints coming soon. The goal of the library is to follow the OpenAI Node SDK wherever possible while taking advantage of React Native SSE and Expo FileSystem with streaming and file upload support where the OpenAI Node SDK does not work. Lmk what you think or what you would like to see!
Unsure on funding, but this is a proof of concept. It'll show that the modeling, design practices, manufacturing, etc are working. The "meta" of the plane. For example, while as you point out the air frame of the final production model isn't being tested, they are testing the ability to model the stresses and strains an airframe would undergo throughout the speed envelope. And that's huge

> They are not one market, in any sense.

I agree, but there is a venn diagram here. Many use cases are covered by both products. As time goes on, the venn diagram gets closer to a circle. An iPhone of 2008 was a niche device, but nowadays you can complete 99% of tasks completely on an iPhone (yes I made up 99%, just pretend it's some number higher than it once was).

I think, for most adults, their primary personal computer is a smartphone. Many, not sure of the numbers here, don't own a laptop or desktop at all. They may have one for work, though.
It's from news sources. They will bring him down when the time is right. He is clearly a foreign agent. It is surprising that nothing happened to him even though he is an obvious foreign agent.
Then it should be easy to find an alternative source, right?

I don't question the particular facts of this situation, but Voice of America is literally a propaganda outlet. It is not meant to be objective journalism, and was used during the Cold War to counter Soviet propaganda. It should not be cited as a reliable source.

The same reason why many people choose WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord over things like Signal or Matrix. They are just easier to use. It is about priorities. Maybe some day we solve the usability problems.
The successful companies that came out of the dot com bubble era actually proved their business viability before getting major investment, though.

Amazon is one of the most famous successes of the era. Bezos quit his job, launched the business out of his garage, with seed money being $10K of his own savings, and was doing $20K/week in sales just 30 days later. And I believe their only VC round before going public was an $8 investment from Kleiner Perkins. But they were a company who proved their viability early on, had a real product with rapid revenue growth before getting any VC $$.

I’d say this SSI round is more similar to Webvan, who went public with a valuation of $4.8 billion, and at that time had done a grand total of $395K in sales, with losses over $50 million.

I’m sure there are good investments out there for AI companies that are doing R&D and advancing the state of the art. However, a $1 billion investment at a $5 billion valuation, for a company with zero product or revenue, just an idea, that’s nuts IMO, and extremely similar to the type of insanity we saw during the dot com bubble. Even more so given that SSI seemingly don’t even want to be a business - direct quote from Ilya:

> This company is special in that its first product will be the safe superintelligence, and it will not do anything else up until then … It will be fully insulated from the outside pressures of having to deal with a large and complicated product and having to be stuck in a competitive rat race.

This doesn’t sound to me like someone who wants to build a business, it sounds like someone who wants to hack on AI with no oversight or proof of financial viability. Kinda wild to give him $1 billion to do that IMO.
If we were sure we could build superhuman intelligence, the valuation would've been a lot higher!

GP talked about the choices of device manufacturers. If device manufacturers consider the sales potential for a new laptop model, are they going to ignore the competition by tablets? How about convertibles or tablets with a keyboard?

Consumers consider them somewhat interchangeable ("I bought a Surface to replace my old laptop"), so they IMO can't be excluded. And if you don't exclude them, then the share of windows laptops is now so low that adding linux support is a noticeable increase in the sales potential of that hardware.

Device manufacturers are quite cynical IMO. Would you personally take on extra testing burden to increase the sales potential for a new model by 0.25%? 0.5%? 1%? 2%? 4%? 8%? I postulate that the device manufacturers wouldn't bother for the numbers at the low end, but if they don't do it now, then they have a better reason than "windows doesn't require it" (quoting from GP).

That’s what I’m saying, yes.

I guess another way of putting this is, is the one year of Math 55, some of whose 12 students per year do an internship at the NSA, really that vital to the mission? Venture capitalists go out of their way, bending over backwards for the same people too. And the Math 55 kids get pushed out, people don’t like working for Math 55 kids all the same.

The multi-billion dollar NSA budget is juicy, but without a better mission - without elevating the mission above, “Copy the data from a tech company to whom people willing hand over all their information” - the kids who might make good leaders will remain uninterested in the NSA. They could be persuaded by a podcast, but not one that pulls the same levers as Two Sigma and Stripe do, convincing people that they’re secret geniuses, talking about a storied but kind of meaningless past full of conveniently ignored failures, as opposed to making their purpose worthy.
There are multiple geometries though, they don't have to describe the real world. In mathematics you are free to base your geometry on whatever axioms you want, whether they are realistic or not. I'd say the question of which geometry applies in the real world is more a question for physicists (or cosmologists, today).

Isn't that basically his point, though?

I read this as a reflection on the fact that our current economic system incentivizes and promotes companies that refuse to make/sell low-margin goods.

It rewards companies that instead make high-margin goods, even when those high-margin goods are genuinely worse for consumers in general.

I read this as another poke at capitalism and how it utterly falls down in making efficient markets when there is information asymmetry. And it shows that information asymmetry is easy to artificially introduce, and it's beneficial to sellers (perhaps even required by sellers) to do so.

---

Basically - successful safety razor companies exist, but you literally cannot buy their products in person. Stores don't want to sell them, and you won't see commercials for them either (low margin goods usually don't have the budget to spam you with marketing).

So the consumer is mislead into purchasing a much more expensive option by default, outside of extensive personal research into what should be an easy choice.

If you think Razors are the only place this is happening... I promise it's not.

The issue isn't that you can't create a company that sells safety razors. It's that market incentives drive those companies out of sight of consumers by default. The end result is bad for the average consumer.

That’s not a cynical take, it’s the obvious take.
> Just because the police can get the evidence one way doesn't mean that they're required to.

I'm not American, but I would hope that when they have a choice between taking somebody's usb stick away or taking somebody's car + usb stick away, they should be required to do the former. Especially when that somebody is an innocent bystander.

> If I correctly understand how the Tesla Sentry Mode works then it's not literally always recording everything

I can clarify this part. The sentry mode records a short clip when the car is parked AND it has over 20% battery AND it detects some movement around car. The dashcam is recording when driving, but only the last hour or so is kept around.

Of course both sentry and dashcam can be turned off or the usb stick might not be inserted or there can be a technical issue, but in general drivers usually keep them on in public.

So based on what you are saying the police have to convince the judge that it's likely that something interesting happened very close to the parked car (triggering sentry mode recording).
Even with Ilya demonstrating his capabilities in those areas you mentioned, it seems like investors are simply betting on his track record, hoping he’ll replicate the success of OpenAI. This doesn’t appear to be an investment in solving a specific problem with a clear product-market fit, which is why the reception feels dismissive.

That may be true for Debian itself (although I know a lot of people who have been running it for years as their daily system and still are to this day, including myself for 15+ years and counting), but Debian is also the base for many other distributions, including Ubuntu and its derivatives (like Mint), which are mostly used on desktops rather than servers.
Reddit isn't the one doing it, although they're complicit and they know it's happening and they're potentially getting paid for it.

People are farming karma to sell accounts. Marketing and PR firms dominate reddit. Think of the site at it's peak, I'd say about 6 or 7 years ago was the end of it's plateau, how valuable would it have been to control the fan community for your book, show, movie franchise, sports team. What about if you're a product maker in a category, say you're REI and you want a presence on buy it for life. Political campaigns, everything, reddit was just such a huge target, easily manipulated and full of people who think they're talking to other humans. It was bound to happen.

Of course just like SEO, it went too far and now it's uncanny, the site is in heavy decline due to this and you can go on most communities, they get one or two new posts a day and they're almost always botted to the top and PR/marketing.
Furthermore, we might not be able to observe it but we can observe simulations of it.

If it was not possible to simulate, I think we'd be less invested in the math and physics of it.
I think we can also say that the former USSR has also failed to achieve capitalism despite having 30 years to do it. So maybe there's some other factors at play.
> Bigger object should reflect more light, making detection more likely.

That assumes that the detection is photon constrained and not "nobody is looking in most directions" constrained.

It doesn't matter even if the asteroid is carrying a lit magnesium torch if nobody is looking for it systematically.

I'm not saying that it is the case. In fact I'm asking: are we photon constrained or are we constrained by the rate we are scanning the sky?

Market enviornments change though. There's probably a lot more people with disposable income in the higher end and plane travel has exploded since then.

Wouldn't it make more sense to compute a single number of operations that is sufficient to obtain any possible order, for any number of cards in your library smaller than 60? In this way one would have to memorize just a single number and not the whole table.

Rust has already demonstrated its usefulness out of tree, with stuff like binder in Android and the GPU driver for the M1 with Asahi Linux.

With those successes, upstream is interested in seeing what Rust in-tree would look like. Hence the in-tree experimentation going on now.
> Lack of Resources: Debian as a community-driven project lacks the resources to develop and maintain comprehensive security policies comparable to those provided by Red Hat.

And Linux in general has less resources to develop and maintain comprehensive security policies comparable to those provided by Microsoft.

Yet here we are, with Microsoft products so "secure" that they're insecure unless you have a PHd in b****, being so convoluted and over-built that people have to migrate away from it just to recover the actual security they used to enjoy back when they were able to wrap their head around the whole stack.

If devs want things to be more secure, stop developing more acronyms and just educate the userbase on the acronyms they already have.

I’m not sure how it could be otherwise. On some level mathematics is a description of reality that we can use to compute things in reality.

For example, pi is the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter. It’s just what a circle is in two dimensions. The value of pi isn’t any more mysterious or connected to physics than the existence of this thing called a circle. If you have some other Euclidean shapes you’ll have other ratios and values that have other relationships to other things in physical reality.

And if reality was different, hence the physical laws were different then the math would be different.. and the beings in that world might wonder why their math and physics were so interconnected.
