> if Trump gets re-elected [...] the left will suddenly find the wisdom of executive limits on power if he gets in office.

Whuh? I don't even—would the quarters in your pocket happen to depict George Washington with a pointed goatee?

On mine he's clean-shaven, from a timeline where "the left" has been the side consistently arguing for some very important limits on executive power, regardless of whether "their" candidate entered the office later, such as:

* Remember all those years of "Unitary Executive Theory" under the Bush administration, and how it was opposed and kept getting opposed?

* Everything about the Constitution-free-zone at Guantanamo, both its formation and failed executive attempts to dissolve it?

* The thing about the Emoluments clause, and whether Presidents can solicit and accept bribes?

* The thing about whether Presidents can self-pardon?

* The Supreme Court case about whether Presidents have blanket immunity in office which would allow them to order the assassination of their rivals?

Those should ring a tintinnabulation of bells, even before other less-legalistic notes, such as consistent belief that "President For Life" and praising foreign dictators for having dictatorial power are taboo.
I work with both and far and away prefer Vue.
But there is actually a reason to use this standard. See, if your goal is to alter the perception of AI models, like convincing them certain genocides did not exist or that certain people are(n't) criminals, you want AI to index your website as efficiently as possible.

Together with websites that make money off trying to report the truth shielding their content from plagiarism scrapers, this means that setting up a wide range of (AI generated) websites all configured to be ingested easily will allow you to alter public perception much easier.

This spec is very useful in a fairy tale world where everyone wants to help tech giants build better AI models, but also when the goal is to twist the truth rather than improve reliability.

Oh, and I guess projects like Wikipedia are interested in easy information distribution like this. But you can just download a copy of the entire database instead.

Good question, I actually haven't tried it with the image capture approach. I'll give that a shot and see how it performs. I'm planning to try many different AI extractors, and see which performs best.

So far, I've done some un-scientific testing to compare text vs. HTML. Text is a lot more effective on a per-token basis, and therefore lower cost. However, some data is only available in HTML.
Sure, but you cant take a SINGLE YEAR and extrapolate that for the future.

If you look at the previous year Germany had 20% more growth than the UK - which they tout as having more than 2.5x the AI startups.

If you look at growth since pre-covid times the German economy has grown at the same rate as the UK - even accounting for the Russian energy crisis, on which Germany was HIGHLY dependent. Germany has been mostly stable throughout, while the UK was hit hard through COVID and has simply recovered.

The whole article is just a load of hot air.
There are many ways to do anything. Some build "in public", e.g. on Twitter/X and blog about every step. Some release early with previews/beta and keep going. There's no hard or fast rules.

I definitely think you can release something and also talk to customers. I mean why not? Try again later. Keep improving as you do this.

I doubt something like SSO is going to be a blocker at this stage. Perhaps something else.

Can't say more without seeing the product though...
Ah I missed “socioeconomic” quintiles, thanks for politely clarifying.

The way I see this is - intelligence is genetically determined, but success is determined by behavior, not intelligence. Intelligence just enables more adaptive behavior selection, all else being equal. Environmental factors can inject behavior patterns that override whatever analytic potential a person has. Which I think basically lines up with what you are saying.
Its very convenient for big pharma to lump all addictions to a chemical imbalance in the brain.

We have been here before with the first wonder drug "Prozac" back in the late 80's. A cure all for everything.

yet there was no research to support those chemical imbalance claims.

I worked as a methadone dispenser for 15 years and this is not my experience of addiction.

There is no chemical or hormonal imbalance when you become addicted to drugs that relieve you from the psychotic hallucinations you experience daily or the young woman who did not know her boyfriend was a heroin addict and started chasing the dragon with him or even the young stressed out mother who's husband has abandined her who has been told by endless TV advertising that a glass of red wine a day is good for you or the young man who has sufferred sexual and psychological abuse as a child who drinks to forget.

Wegovy a cure for everything from the flu to cancer.

Good thing I use my YubiKeys with RSA keys, protected with a PIN, following the most excellent guide by DrDuh.

Most sites let you print recovery keys.

Print those keys out, and bury them in the backyard (or something like that).

Or always add two keys.
I've read up, and you have a good point.
The .value thing is dreadful. Is it really necessary? I still prefer options API.
One thing to note about FetchFox: it runs as a Chrome extension. This means it has a different interaction with anti-scraping measures than cloud based tools.

For one thing, many (most? all?) large sites ban Amazon IP's from accessing their websites. This is not a problem for FetchFox.

Also, with FetchFox, you can scrape a logged in session without exposing any sensitive information. Your login tokens/passwords are never exposed to any 3rd party proxy like they would be with cloud scraping. And if you use your own OpenAI API key, the extension developer (me) never sees any of the activity in your scraping. OpenAI does see it, however.

> And is there any reliable scraping services that can actually do scraping of those large companies' sites at a reasonable cost?

FetchFox :).

But besides that, the gold standard for scraping is proxied mobile IP requests. There are services that let you make requests which appear to come from a mobile IP address. These are very hard for big sites to block, because mobile providers aggregate many customer requests together.

The downside is mainly cost. Also, the providers in this space can be semi-sketchy, depending on how they get the proxy bandwidth. Some employ spyware, or embed proxies into mobile games without user knowledge/consent. Beware what you're getting into.
That's also a problem. Two wrongs don't make a right though.

I sometimes do small-time recruitment for my clients. Each spam resume I receive takes five to ten minutes of my time. Occasionally, a good resume might get missed. The more spam, the less attention I can pay per-resume, the more likely a good candidate will get overlooked.

No one wins.
oh, i mean that instead of

grep -P '^func [^)]+\) methodName\('

you could say

grep 'func [^)]*) methodName('

which is a bit less typing

however, i have to admit that i sort of ensnared myself in my own noose here by being too clever! i forgot that grep's regexp dialect only supports + if you \ it, and it took me six tries to figure out why i wasn't getting any grep hits. there's a lot to be said for the predictability and consistency of pcre!
Thanks for the feedback! Totally makes sense to push more random popular topics to AI when you don't have a prompt
They don't interview 950 people to fill one position.
React is more mature, as it has a much larger ecosystem, community, employment opportunities, corporate support.... Vue is simple and delightful when used in small projects. In other words, they are not comparable.
Loved the idea. I think ability to solve problem on edmigo itself would be great.

Great point, thank you! I have a limit for GPT, so will adjust it based on the default usage. Also have a vast DB for questions, but don't wanna trick users giving them questions like from AI, but that were generated 'in advance' and now in DB.
Seems like Germany is having this problem for the past 20 years... but here we are. Maybe accept the fact that they are a manufacturing powerhouse and will remain so in the foreseeable future?

As an open question when are CD’s the best way to store data? X-ray scans with high resolution and high bit depth take up a lot of space though they are accessed infrequently and always in the full. For a 12x18 600 dpi scan with 64 bit depth is 0.6 GB. If these are tomograms and you need a stack of 1200-2000 then we are talking about a lot of data to store for several years to be accessed twice. A CD is not a bad choice for durable storage.
Cars are the key industry in Germany and similar to the US albeit in a less extreme manner moving towards premium combustion cars has Germany caught in a local optimum which is now shrinking due to external change.

Investing in AI is not going to fix that manufacturing restructuring problem in Germany. Nor will asking an AI to write superficial feel good articles for British readers where manufacturing problems are endemic, the Brexit transition and solving the over dependence on Londons financial ‚industry‘ is far from a solved issue.

Having discovered this 15 minutes ago I can't really speak in absolutes, but firing up OBS and using their test server, I think this would allow you to do exactly what you want. It's trivial to get OBS set up to stream to this, and while I haven't tried it, the docs say that it supports multiple streams to the same stream key. I guess it would just show each stream side by side in the client?

I think you could run your own server, run an instance of the front end and distribute the instructions to setup OBS to your family.
Having done the MIT and Harvard CS courses on EDX.org I have to say that any course that doesn’t put you on a GitHub code space with auto-mated tests is a bad course.

I did them because I’m an external examiner for CS students and when I stated I wanted to brush up on all the stuff you learn during your first years, but I was blown away with how good they were. It has been a long time since so maybe they’ve changed.

I’d worry about AI tutors considering how often they get things blatantly wrong. In our internal statistics and analytics on AI assisted programming it’s a very bad option for “junior” programmers. Basically it reduces productivity by quite a lot, it also produces a lot more pull request rejections due to really bad code. On the flip-side, things like co-pilot makes experts in their field of programming sooooo much more efficient. What is really worrying though, is when LLMs get explanations completely wrong. Which means they are teaching the actually engineering wrong, and it can be years before it gets “fixed” if it ever does. I’ve worked in plenty of places where people would never be challenged on wrong knowledge. Often because their co-workers simply didn’t know any better either.
Jitsi is actually one of the better options. My only beef is that it got bloated with features I don't need.
Data Structures and Algorithms.

Very common acronym here in India. All CS "students" just want to "crack" "DSA".

I hate this terminology and more so the underlying idea and motivation behind doing all this.

That CS is a rote mechanical thing to do for the end goal of getting a job.
This is at best another forensic tool (unlocking the TPM of a locked laptop/phone for prosecution) and at worst a red herring for security flag.

- Clone a passport -> why cloning if you can issue new ones - getting risked being detected while using a clone (2 entries in 2 different countries, and you also need to look like the person) not to mention you have to destroy the passport

- SIM Cards -> Swapping is faster, or if you're the the gov, just an intercept warrant will do the trick

- Laptops -> see above

- EMV Chips -> If you have those skills and money, I don't think you'll lose time on cloning credit/debit cards

The author wants the best possible performance as long as its result is reproducible. I think this is evident from the fact that the non-SIMD code uses 4-wide vectors, so the author is definitely willing to trade accuracy if higher performance with a reproducible result is possible.

> Re 4-8x -- the large option in xsum was benchmarked at less than 2x the cost of a direct sum. Not so bad?

I don't know where you did take that number, because xsum-paper.pdf clearly indicates larger performance difference. I'm specifically looking at the ratio between the minimum of any superaccumulator results and the minimum of any simple sum results, and among results I think relevant today (x86-64, no earlier than 2012), AMD Opteron 6348 is the only case where the actual difference is only about 1.5x and everything else hovers much higher.
Agreed — installing modern Windows from physical DVD-R media is painful enough.

I've found iLO 4 virtual media support most useful for booting DOS-hosted firmware updates supplied as El Torito ISO images that aren't natively bootable from USB flash in a world where you can no longer find CD-R blanks at every corner drug store, and where newer machines commonly lack the legacy BIOS support required to boot the image at all.

It's also a fine way to boot minimal BSD or Linux rescue/netinstall images that don't involve live-booting a full desktop environment, or for installing smallish OSes like ESXi in cases where trading increased wallclock time for slightly reduced effort is justifiable.

I've built with React a few years ago but React is still at the top by a large margin. Second is Angular because a lot of enterprise apps are built with either React and Angular. Vue's is definitely 3rd and a big jump in popularity had to do with Chinese dev's using it simply because Evan You is Chinese.

Vue uses the actual DOM instead of the virtual DOM but try and build something tiny with both and see which programming model you like and choose that UI library.
Agree housing is expense no matter where you look US, Europe, Australia and so many more.
You do mention “a bit” annd I’d argue the material, design and housing cost itself to build is by now a far smaller portion for most urban/suburban places where the majority of people are.
IMO land and regulations/policies is really where majority of prices have driven up for housing price.

Some companies behave poorly, and we have every right to call them out.

When individual behave poorly, we should also call them out.

> In this environment, trust in companies is gone.

There are also companies who do good and have very decent recruitment processes.

> This guy should offer AI-job-applying as a service; I'd pay for it.

If people start spamming their resumes more and more, more companies will use automation more and more. Guess who wins this arms race.

I occasionally do small-time ultra-specialized technical recruiting for my clients. I routinely see the same unqualified people blasting their resumes after getting a reject. I can literally tell who they are from the thumbnail previous of their resume.

I don't have much automation. People blasting resumes for jobs they have no chance of landing causes real qualified people to get less attention. Imagine now you are qualified for a particular job, but some exhausted recruiter skips over your resume because they had to wade through so much chaff. You can read about one such experience in a sister comment to your post.
Where are you getting that Germany has the third highest GDP per capita in the world? IMF https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_GDP_(nomi... puts it at 18th in nominal GDP per capita and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_GDP_(PPP)... puts it at 21st in purchasing-power-adjusted GDP per capita. And in Europe, Luxemburg, Austria, The Netherlands and Ireland have higher GDP per capita according to those lists, as do Sweden, Norway, Switzerland and Denmark if you consider them part of Europe.
Ask HN: I Need JustBeepIt but for Mobile. Any Suggestions?
Since my workflow was entirely web-based until now, JustBeepIt (https://justbeepit.com) was a perfect task management platform for me and my clients to create and manage tasks.

If you know of any alternatives, please share them here. Thanks!
I thought that way too. Until I found myself and see others just trying to "fill the gap in the air" with meaningful basic topics, that only makes the conversation weirder...basic topics are great for first 20min, then you just spend your energy for nothing. And for many people it's hard to find right question to boost the meaningful conversation. Having this questions in mind - is a great skill, that hard to get especially if you're not that social person, but want friends. Icebreaking question are not a 'silver bullet', but a mean to reflect on topic that energies you to talk and help you find your 'soul'.

> require a lot more support.

Supporting a narrow particular set of vendors (Azure OIDC and Okta, OIDC/SAML2) is dirt cheap. LDAP is another story and a real enterprise from support standpoint. Every time it's a support case with a high chance to allocate an engineer to solve the issue. I bet most of listed services don't support LDAP.

BTW. I have no issues with the pricing policy. You ask price others are ready to pay.

Also it could be an opportunity to eval other products with SSO from the box.
