Ask HN: Where do you subscribe to published journal topics?
Hey all trying to track all published journals. Is there something like a place or rss for all published journals? thank you!
How/where do you do that?
If you enjoy your work, 62.5 hours per week doesn’t seem excessive, especially if you spread some of that time over the weekends. At that point, you could compare it to how long artists and scientists typically work.

Eight hours of sleep is generally sufficient for most people. Personally, I consider physical activity at the CEO level to be part of their work time.
Behind the Durov arrest, a small Paris cybercrime unit with big ambitions
OTOH (writing from 20-year working experience with two thirds of it in early stage startups) more often than not founders are not actually competent technically or otherwise.
And “letting people do their job” at best means a permission to speak up and endlessly argue with conflicting opinions from colleagues, but not a permission to execute if that means commanding others to do something, because the delegation of power to do that is not being given due to the aforementioned lack of expertise and inability to judge if an idea is good or bad.
I think in industry terms you're describing a dump. Landfills have liner systems on the sides and bottom, sumps to collect and dispose of trash juice, gas collectors, they're compacted, netted, covered daily to prevent trash from blowing away, then capped and sealed with clay when full, and (in the US) required to be monitored for 30 years for environmental problems and to ensure the decomposition is going as expected.

The microplastics in your air and water probably aren't coming from landfills, in fact the solution to that is very likely to be more landfills. Those plastics come from coastal countries lacking good waste management who dump plastic into rivers and oceans, and the solution is painfully boring— municipal waste management.
It depends on where you are, some carriers are choosing to maintain GSM while shutting down UMTS, mainly because 2G serves a good fallback voice, SMS and IoT communication system, however insecure(!) it is. Both 3GPP and GSMA didn't really develop a successor to GSM (a basic, reliable, low-powered communication standard) so this is indeed a weird state of affairs, but GSM carrier equipment is still being manufactured for this exact reason.
Just a reminder that all famine is political. The world, as a whole, produces more than it consumes. Famine is a political willingness to let certain people starve and die. It could be one internal group in a country willing to starve another. It could be entities external to the country willing to let it starve.

Functionally, famine is little different to death squads.

Further to this, we have a sanitized term in the modern era for intentionally starving people to death. It's called "economic sanctions" [1].

I think more common is narcissism of the children--who often reject socially reasonable expectations imposed on them by parents.

American divorce culture is also deeply dysfunctional. It's not just "religious fundamentalists" who think that. Many of us asian americans look at it and silently judge you.
Was this written by AI? It's hardly comprehensible while trying to discuss some the most well read litterature ever written.
> But the truly interesting aspect lies in how the device employs informational algorithms to make its movements more human-like. When you select its AI mode, a new interface appears with a velocimeter. When their penis has been inserted, the user hits start and a series of waves appears on-screen. “The AI is able to recognize the movement and intensity of stimulation in real time, to adapt and synchronize its motor and power according to the user’s preferences,” explains Di Ippolito. While the user moves the toy to the rhythm of a standard handjob, its artificial intelligence is able to adjust its speed and vibration to achieve maximum pleasure. For a product that is marketed as easy-to-use, Di Ippolito says that, “with Sensonic technology, you can feel sonic pulses throughout masturbation.”

> And what happens to the data the toy collects? “When it is not connected to wi-fi, the AI mode encrypts data in real time to adapt to the user’s movement and intensity. You can personalize the patterns and save them, all without any need of a wi-fi connection,” says Di Ippolito. In doing so, sex toys like this one can, “provide specific stimulation, intensify pleasure, lead to exploration of the body and sexual fantasies, and can improve a couple’s communication and intimacy,” she says.

That always sounds nice until you see how it plays out in universities and other charities. The directed donations don't get sent to where they are most needed; they end up funding large vanity projects.
> CTRL+F for jet comes up empty.

The relevant word in the text is "aircraft":

"You will be eligible to use the Company aircraft for (i) business-related travel in accordance with the Company’s travel policy, (ii) travel between your city of residence and the Company’s headquarters in Seattle, Washington and (iii) your personal travel in accordance with the Company’s policies, up to a maximum amount of $250,000 per year, which amount will be based on the aggregate incremental cost to the Company."

A commuter jet and a quarter of a million dollars of personal travel!

Indeed, so capitalism in its purest, unbridled form has the same flaw: it becomes all consuming. Hence the need for regulation, another form of bureaucracy.
I really miss, and worry that I will never be able to replace my Fujitsu Stylistic ST-4110 which had a transflective display (which allowed using it in full-bright, direct sunlight, even at the beach) and a stylus --- closest I came was a Samsung Galaxy Book 12 (which I wasn't able to replace).

The problem is, trying to out-bright the sun on a battery-powered device is exactly as stupid as it sounds, and solutions such as transflective displays don't showroom well (someone should build a showroom w/ a light booth which simulates a bright sunny day and invite folks to try to use devices in it w/o shading them).

At this point in time, I'm seriously considering switching to a Raspberry Pi 5 as a daily driver (paired w/ a Wacom One 13 gen2 display w/ touch) --- if that display could be supplemented by (or swapped out for) an e-ink or similar daylight viewable pen-enabled display, it would probably push me over the edge (and yes, I've considered just pointing my Kindle Scribe's web browser at a page on the rPi --- if someone has a tool which would allow this to capture stylus input, please let me know).
It uses the word "aircraft", not "jet". There is a whole section about it:

> You will be eligible to use the Company aircraft for (i) business-related travel in accordance with the Company’s travel policy, (ii) travel between your city of residence and the Company’s headquarters in Seattle, Washington and (iii) your personal travel in accordance with the Company’s policies, up to a maximum amount of $250,000 per year, which amount will be based on the aggregate incremental cost to the Company.
FWIW some time ago I coded a more basic CLI tool in a similar vain

Maintaining a good structure is a cost on its own. A good analogy is how most many engineers think "if I spend two days writing documentation then I'll save one hour figuring out things later, resulting in net gain of negative fifteen work hours, great job".
Trying to outbright the sun on a battery powered device just results in displays w/ burnt-in screen elements and a dead battery.
I have to disagree, k8s is extensively documented and the reference docs and APIs are easily accessible.
K8s at its core is a customizable, extensible, dynamic API server, with a focus on containerization.
It's built with scale and customization in mind, you're not supposed to use it only for running a few containers. I've worked for people that use it to manage VMs with custom controllers. You can change pretty much anything and fit it to your needs. All this with defined, somewhat opinionated sane defaults and conventions
That actually looks like it's relevant, and might be a good thing for people to check into.

I don't think I see it as arrogant although it's definitely an opinionated title.
Thank you! Yes, most of it was done solo w/feedback from others. I've been making videos for over 10 years and developing for the past 5, so that might explain a bit.
Boeing. SpaceX had nothing to do with StarLiner
It's actually not. I had no running water yesterday. Also two days ago as well. I'm sorry my comment made you angry. I hope you're doing well...

{fmt} has an optional implementation of the old Dragon4 algorithm that is smaller in terms of code size but not as fast.
I'm from Europe and my language doesn't have an equivalent to "coding" but i'm still using the English word "coder" and "coding" for decades - in my case i learned it from the demoscene where it was always used for programmers since the 80s. FWIW the Demoscene is (or was at least) largely a European thing (groups outside of Europe did exist but the majority of both groups and demoparties were -and i think still are- in Europe) so perhaps there is some truth about the "coding" word being a European thing (e.g. it sounded ok in some languages and spread from there).

Also in my ears coder always sounded cooler than programmer and it wasn't until a few years ago i first heard that to some people it has negative connotations. Too late to change though, it still sounds cooler to me :-P.

doing 2nd year LA right now (as a mature age) have done calc before but this is probably the hardest maths ive been exposed to so far. so many new and abstract concepts to get my head around and try to visualise. and sometimes you just cant visualise it, its abstract. you just have to trust the development of an idea and go "yeah, it generalises i guess"

like i always thought of inner products as just dot products but its a whole theory on its own, and cayley hamilton theorm, just been exposed to that but no idea how its useful yet
You caught me.
Real question… how do you “ground” electrical in a space craft? There’s no earth. Large capacitors or something? Or do you just have to live with a floating ground (literally)?
Vizdom: Diagrams as Code
Half a billion is 500 million.
Long time ago, I worked on a project for a Korean cellphone vendor. Our task was to customize, fix bugs and implement a few features whenever a new model was going to be released in LATAM.

A colleague of mine bought (on a store) one of the models that was going to be released in another country. He customized it with a Disney Princesses theme and glued a few stickers. He gave it as a birthday present to his daughter. A unique model nobody else had.

The rich pay the fines too, it’s just that it’s not a meaningful deterrence. The poorest simply drive without plates or licenses so they are immune
straight to the point without any fuss. well done
Maybe I misinterpreted Pauls blog post, but what i got was: Mangers != Leaders, Leaders != Managers. Management and Leadership need to be well understood in any organization. Good Mangers can be good leaders. The CEO is often the manager of the leadership. This is effectively what they teach in the Harvard MBA.
Cool idea, though it seems like it still requires some polish.
There are small issues, for example: the design of HN links on Discord does not seem to be correct.
I have a color Boox tablet, and I am very very disappointed about the colors. Very hard to distinguish many colors and shades. Black and white though is really good.
And it would further be a different result if the question was:

"Is it ok for foreign companies offering services to Brazilian citizens to ignore Brazilian law? Even if that company is Twitter and it means you lose access to Twitter?"

The average person does not really care about what's right or wrong or fair - just what's in their interest.

The average person cannot or does not think - "But what if a bunch of other companies were doing this thing? What if we had to treat them all fairly?"

That's why it's good when you have a legal system that at least attempts to be fair - instead of just populist and doing whatever people want.
They model the rhetoric, semantics, and ideas of some of the most unhinged and immature denizens of the internet.

The stolen data used in the training sets are filled with online communities you would shudder to be forced to experience, and books you’d refuse to read.

It’s why they’ll suddenly suggest you put glue in pizza sauce, or why they read in a soulless overly verbose “m’lady” tone.

More data made them less useful but better at fooling people with a superficial interest in them, and that demographic is so large it affords these companies leverage in funding rounds.

Markets truly are irrational.
This presupposes that several thousand years from now

1. We've forgotten about fossil fuels

2. Fossil fuels are a desirable source of energy in the future

3. Plastics buried in landfills will decompose into oil

4. There won't be more plentiful sources of oil, such as wells that weren't depleted in the present, or unrefined biomass that decomposed into more useable crude oil
> Is it not entirely logical that a cohort that actually pays attention to where 20%, 30%, 40% of their money is going ends up wealthier than one that doesn't?

Many if not most rich never got rich, they happened to be born rich. In the situation I'm talking about, the said family has been wealthy for two centuries. And my in-laws are significantly less well-off than the generation before. Their ancestors may have been gifted in some way that got them rich in the first place, but there have definitely be some regression to average since then and their management of their wealth has been much less efficient than the one of my parents for instance (who aren't wealthy today, but are still clearly better than their own parents).

In fact I suspect that these people are obsessed about taxes because they know their fortune is ever going downhill because they lack the thing that made their ancestors successful so they spend their efforts trying to salvage their wealth instead of making one of their own.
mesmerizing. But I remember seeing this long time ago. Is this a new version?
Also the first real programming language I learned, on an early version of DOS (3.?). I wrote a utility to encode data which was burnt to Eeproms for VHF radio's (fixed base units) I don't remember the details but it was cool to write a tool to solve a problem. Fun times.
Same here - I still have my Turbo Pascal 5.0 install disks!
0.3mp is good enough for kitsch. It’s appropriate, and given the audience, this ensures a low level of information leakage in the form of naively snapped photos. Low-res is an arguable win for this feature set, speaking as a Parent.
I realize that many commenters have been egregiously breaking HN's guidelines in this thread, but calling for expulsion of populations is unacceptable. We ban accounts that post such things. No more of this, please.

Highly recommend Percival Everrett's novel "James" which was just published. It is a retelling of Huck Finn from the point of view of Jim.
The problem with this line of thinking is that 1) it's all relative anyway, and 2) The notion of "ground" is completely different depending on which perspective you have.

To a statistician or a practitioner approaching machine learning from a mathematical perspective, the computational details are a distraction.

Yes, these models would not be possible without automatic differentiation and massively parallel computing. But there is a lot of rich detail to consider in building up the model from first mathematical principles, motivating design choices with prior art from natural language processing, various topics related to how input data is represented and loss is evaluated, data processing considerations, putting things into context of machine, learning more broadly, etc. You could fill half a book chapter with that kind of content (and people do), without ever talking about computational details beyond a passing mention.

In my personal opinion, fussing over manual memory management is far afield from anything useful unless you want to actually work on hardware or core library implementations like Pytorch. Nobody else in industry is doing that.
Using log4c
It does end rather abruptly
The latter, much the same as the "ground" in an automobile or airplane (or even just any old battery-operated device).

"Ground" is an arbitrarily-chosen voltage convention. In space the floating ground won't cause a fault because there's never an electrical circuit with both the floating ground and the 'real' ground.

EDIT: turns out the ISS is a bit more complicated than that, and it also has a "grounding strap" that connects to the local plasma. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41417136
What was the substance of the criticism?

There is a meeting or mismeeting between book and reader in math. Sometimes you are on the wrong footing to absorb a book. You bounce. Maybe you come back later and absorb the book.

As far as the title, just catching marketing I think. Might not appeal to all for sure.
I'm guessing this was posted because it's the relatively new 4th edition. Tensors now included!
There’s been many news stories, business articles, and studies suggesting that. I don’t know how popular they are in management literature. I just know many stayed promoting this with high resistance from big business, management people, etc.

At the least, they said you need to hear directly from the people on the ground to know what they’re experiencing. The people on top could talk to them about what they learned.

Additionally, companies like IBM and FedEx used to give rewards to employees for ideas to improve the company. It was often a percentage of what those ideas made or saved up to a certain cap. A bunch of people would usually collect the max reward whenever this way implemented.

Those are a few examples that I saw show up in many places.
Because that's where many good paying jobs are. If I buy a home in a lower cost of living area, and my employer decides to do away with remote work, I may not be able to find another job that can pay the mortgage even though it is in a cheaper area.
Inequitably serving the maker, advertisers, service providers and back door entities makes it damnable. Garbage is being sincerely kind.
Same as an aircraft or car. The chassis is the ground. (Edit: as in, the "ground" is the chassis)
"For example." It's a favorite phrase of the various Polish devs I've known, for some reason.

I like it! It looks fun and a little mischievous. I hope someday we start using fx in the same places we use ie or eg.

You can go all the way and make a Hugo website out of those Markdown docs pretty easily too. If anyone wants help doing this, feel free to drop me a line!
LLMs could technically consume any type of sensory data, although maybe it is not right to call them specifically language models then. But they can be multi modal and could be fed with similar data as people consume.

In addition I don't think it makes sense to compare this to building bridges or pharma.

I don't think ChatGPT is more likely to harm a person with misinformation than just plain Google or YouTube would.

In fact already existing search and recommendation algorithms I believe are more likely to lead you down the misinfo rabbit hole.

At least ChatGPT to an extent is biased to try and stay objective as opposed to any rabbit holes leading people to fringe content.
> Colonialism developed as a concept describing European colonial empires of the modern era, which spread globally from the 15th century to the mid-20th century.

The concept was developed from European colonial empires, but it describes more than just them.

The way Muslims invaded Portugal and Spain, established their strongholds, exploited native population and maintained their rule for several centuries until kicked out fits the same mold, as do countless other examples, from Northern Crusades a thousand years ago to Soviet Union's domination of Central and Eastern Europe just a few decades ago.

If you think that European nations do not have a long history of being invaded by foreigners, seeing their land taken away and given to settlers while being made inferior and exploited, then you are very wrong and I encourage you to pick up a history book on any smaller European nation.
What do you mean by free speech is regressing in anglophone countries? That seems like a weird opinion to have? Do you have a particular example?
