It's a learning curve. Start with the bits of regular maintenance you need to do, and go on YouTube to learn how to do it. Besides Sheldon Brown's webpage, Park Tools make great maintenance tutorials.

Start with tuning brakes, to changing chains, and tuning derailleurs, changing cables, taking bits off for cleaning.

It will feel cumbersome, and a few times you will get yourself into a mess and end up taking a more-broken bike to the shop. But you'll get there eventually.

> Glad to see these guys out the job and production moving to the Carolinas

Here's an idea: let them compete. Seattle versus North Charleston. I quite literally don't know if I agree with your or not, but that's the point--none of you, I or a dickwad in Chicago or D.C. should be making that call unilaterally. The market should. Split them up and return us to the competition that built America's golden age of aviation.
Apologizing to the hordes is just letting blood in the water. It inflames their hunger. There's no point. Just press forward and apply force in the market. They will obey. Each of them is just trying to use you as a springboard. No need to exaggerate their importance.

The "oh my god oh my god I'm being harmed help you're hurting me" crap is a game they're playing to parlay into their own career of outrage. A few hits and they're made. "How dare you!" and so on.

Apologizing won't make them back off and it won't bring any friends. In So You've Been Publicly Shamed by Jon Ronson, none of the publicly shamed people who apologized found peace. It's because there's none there. The one who was unaffected just acted blissfully unaffected and he was.

People are ultimately unhappy for a different reason. If you check their history they'll post about loneliness, SSRIs, therapists, and how the world is shit. 80% of Americans are happy. You're going to listen to the few who couldn't find their way there?

No. Never apologize.
I normally love the retool articles but I didn’t understand this one as much. Can someone explain it to me in a simpler way as I really want to understand it
It's funny because I'm very happy with the productivity boost from LLMs, but I use them in a way that is pretty much diametrically opposite to yours.

I can't think of many situations where I would use them for a problem that I tried to solve and failed - not only because they would probably fail, but in many cases it would even be difficult to know that it failed.

I use it for things that are not hard, can be solved by someone without a specialized degree that took the effort to learn some knowledge or skill, but would take too much work to do. And there are a lot of those, even in my highly specialized job.
Does that work on a Steam Deck or on the “Big Screen” interface? I’d like to have that in Bazzite.
> A 25% raise today is not the same thing as a 25% raise over the course of 4 years.

And is also different than 25% over 4 years while also removing a 4% per year annual bonus.
Union labor is only going to be better if the work is compensated enough that people stay around. Unions are not magic.
Boeing has not been doing that.

They underestimate the value of retaining people who have actually seen a few full plane lines start.
They are in a situation now where there are not enough senior personal to properly guide new hires as they rotate through every 1-2 years.
You want good people, you have to pay for them.
Why you can't swim after the rain? Does the water get dirty, or else?
Unions aren't a monopoly they're a democracy. After a democratic vote, the minority has to accept what the majority wants. Yes, sometimes voters make poor choices. New workers know about the union before they join. You don't move to a new state and refuse to pay taxes because you didn't vote for them. Once you're there you get to vote in the next election. America is a democracy and you don't have to revert to feudalism when you step onto the factory floor.
That's not true at all. That's just some propaganda college kids and the like keep repeating. Most other western countries are capitalist, have much stronger regulation than the US and are all the better for it.
This thing with duty feeling is hard. They all feel they did their best. Exactly as my precursor who spend 17 years in the role and did way below bare minimum. No single comment in the code. Last project does not work at all, but was approved as finished. Laziness and ignorance are everywhere. As long as managers accept it there is no way to stop that. Maybe I should stop drawing flowcharts in ascii art manner. Nobody will say “thank you” for that anyway. Nobody will give me a raise for that. It might help the next guy in my chair, but should I care about him?
Among the communists, I think both types could be found, it is just that the more idealistic, moderate and anti-authoritarian people always lose out in those revolutions. An organized, amoral and unscrupulous minority has a big advantage over them. Classical liberalism suffers from the same issues, and systems designed by classical liberals also often get subverted by minority interests.
> Capitalism needs regulation to avoid self destruction.

This is equally true for any alternative system to capitalism.
> Any respectable employer/employee relationship transacts on results rather than time anyway.

No. This may be common in freelance contracts, but is almost never the case in employment contracts, which specify a time-based compensation (usually either per hour or per month).
many many teams are actively building SOTA systems to do this in ways previously unimagined. you can enqueue tasks and do whatever you want. I gotta say as a current gen LLM programmer person, I can completely appreciate how bad they are now - I recently tweeted about how I "swore off" AI tools but like... there are many ways to bootstrap very powerful software or ML systems around or inside these existing models that can blow away existing commercial implementations in surprising ways
What I'm not able to comprehend is why people are not seeing the answer as brilliant!

Any ordinary mortal (like me) would have jumped to the conclusion that answer is "Father" and would have walked away patting on my back, without realising that I was biased by statistics.

Whereas o1, at the very outset smelled out that it is a riddle - why would anyone out of blue ask such question. So, it started its chain of thought with "Interpreting the riddle" (smart!).

In my book that is the difference between me and people who are very smart and are generally able to navigate the world better (cracking interviews or navigating internal politics in a corporate).

That's arguably all entertainment. Fiction writing, art, music, movies, sports, vloggers, influencers, OnlyFans creators, etc. There's a couple brands so established that literally anything they do prints money, then there's a winner-takes-all dynamics that keeps making few randos briefly successful every season, and then there's everyone else who never makes enough to break even.
Sounds like Windows computers: if you check the prices of a laptop that has a Linux or no-OS option, it'll be more expensive than the same laptop pre-loaded with Windows, because the factory Windows install is loaded with pre-installed 3rd-party crapware. The crapware companies pay MS to include their crapware (which is usually just teaser software to get users to buy the real thing) in the base OS image, and MS pays the PC makers (or gives them a big discount) to include Windows by default. And of course, Windows itself now has built-in ads and spyware too, so MS gets money from users using it.
It is also a great way to ruin a company. Especially if you are pandering to the wider market.
If the supply of labor is so high then Boeing can hire scabs. I don’t follow how on the one hand the workers add so little value and are so replaceable that they deserve no raise and then on the other hand their strike could kill the company.

I also don’t follow how paying union dues is a problem if they’re going to get you a 25 - 40% raise whereas you’re unlikely to get anything on your own. I get not everyone likes unions, but you’re making a pretty compelling case for them IMHO.
Ok, but then there is also the increasing number of women who don't want a boyfriend either because they want a same sex relationship or because they can't find a man on their educational level, since women graduate at a higher rate. The reason is mostly irrelevant, what matters is that supply and demand are imbalanced and one side has to deal with not getting what they want in one way or another.
K8s is painful to manage. It's a lot less painful than getting paged in the middle of the night because your server is down - And much much less than realizing that you've been down for an entire day and didn't notice. (K8s isn't even a complete solution to these problems! Just one part of a complete ~balanced breakfast~ production stack)

You don't need k8s for all of that, but there's not a simpler solution than k8s that handles as much.

Life is full of pain. Deal with it.
Fascists are 100 percent part of this Gnostic and Hermetic tradition though.
Am I right that this CoT is not actual reasoning in the same way that a human would reason, but rather just a series of queries to the model that still return results based on probabilities of tokens?
Then ask it to expand. Be specific.
Interesting, because a normal HP-12C it's very easy to change between decimal comma and decimal point. With the calculator off you just hold down "." and turn it on and it will toggle between decimal point and decimal comma for display. I just tried it on one of mine and (while not Brazilian) it does work as it should.

Ask HN: Good up-to-date resource for finding best current LLM for a given task?
Is there a good reference for which models should be preferred for which tasks? As I understand it, there's a decent amount of overlap in the capability of the top models right now (Claude 3, Claude 3.5, GPT4o, OpenAI o1, Gemini 1.5 Pro, Llama 3.1, etc.) but each have their own strengths and weaknesses as well as differences in the API pricing, context windows, usage privacy policies, etc. It'd be nice to know how each stack up against each other for specific use cases. Eg. writing -> use Claude 3, coding -> use Claude 3.5, STEM / logic questions -> OpenAI o1, huge context -> Gemini 1.5 Pro, self-hosting / running locally -> Llama 3.1

I do see a lot of articles on Google from people just personally testing and comparing models based on their own criteria. I haven't found anything yet though that seems to be both thorough and well maintained (given how often new models are released or updated).
Sewage and rainwater in the canals.
It depends. I personally love cloud based solutions because they save me lots of time. But I'm highly selective in what I use and there are some solutions that are clearly counter productive because they are too complicated.

I run a small, bootstrapped startup. We don't have enough money to pay ourselves and I make a living doing consulting on the side. Being budget and time constrained like that I have to be highly selective in what I use.

So, I love things like Google cloud. Our GCP bills are very modest. A few hundred euros per month. I would move to a cheaper provider except I can't really justify the time investment. And I do like Google's UI and tools relative to AWS, which I've used in the past.

I have no use for Kubernetes. Running an empty cluster would be more expensive than our current monthly GCP bills. And since I avoided falling into the micro-services pitfall, I have no need for it either. But I do love Docker. That makes deploying software stupidly easy. Our website is a Google storage bucket that is served via our load balancer and the Google CDN. The same load balancer routes rest calls to two vms that run our monolith. Which talk to a managed DB and managed Elasticsearch and a managed Redis. The DB and Elasticsearch are expensive. But having those managed saves a lot of time and hassle. That just about sums up everything we have. Nice and simple. And not that expensive.

I could move the whole thing to something like Hetzner and cut our bills by 50% or so. Worth doing maybe but not super urgent for me. Losing those managed services would make my life harder. I might have to go back to AWS at some point because some of our customers seem to prefer that. So, there is that as well.

And for good reason, as we later found out in the 20th century.

You'll have to break up the FAA first. The certification costs are ungodly, rigid, and the certification process created fascistic interweaving of industry with government.

To break the monopoly, counterintuitively, we have to deregulate Boeing.
Flash memory was invented by Toshiba in 1980, and marketed starting in 1987.

I was having more of a think about this, one of the issues with LCG's is that they're linear, which means that even relatively basic cryptographic analysis can defeat them. The issue here particularly is that, say you have a cryptoscheme where you encode ascii characters. 95% of your plaintext data has one of the two following formats in binary:

011xxxxx
010xxxxx

And of that, about 70% is:

0110xxxx
0100xxxx

This means with a deterministic seed, you're giving away 3 known bits of state away with every with every encrypted letter, and a good chance at a 4th

That analysis does not require a particularly deep understanding of the cryptosystem to be able to perform, known plaintext is going to be one of the first things that anyone tries. Its less complicated than many crypto schemes that were broken

Disclaimer: I have no idea how this system encodes things as the technology predates my knowledge, and it might not be so straightforward as this
Maybe so, but I would say cars are different than aerospace.

It’s clear that Boeing was able to squeeze costs centers at the expense of quality and business investment all while keeping the coin under shell in the form of regular old stock buybacks.

But if/when Boeing goes under who is going to vet all this NDI sitting in their portfolios? They’re just gonna spin it off to another buyer—consisting of who exactly? McDonnel Douglas? Elon Musk? Tencent?

Seems like a nightmare for someone, not sure for whom.
I just wish we’d stop using words like intelligence or reasoning when talking about LLMs, since they do neither. Reasoning requires you to be able to reconsider every step of the way and continuously take in information, an LLM is dead set in its tracks, it might branch or loop around a bit, but it’s still the same track.
As for intelligence, well, there’s clearly none, even if at first the magic trick might fool you.
I'd be happy to talk about it more, but I'll be out of the office all next week on a short break.

For affordable, semi-professional grade equipment, it is hard to beat Quick. I have Quick 202d + Quick 861dw. The tips on 202d are integrated with thermocouples and heating is indirect but inductive, which strikes a nice balance between the price of the tips (3x more affordable than cartridge tips) and performance (heats just like cartridge tips). The handle is light and has short grip-to-tip distance. I still use the original tips I bought a few years ago, so they last. I always soldered lead free and I’m shocked people on the internet find lead free hard. Some even said I must be nuts to solder lead free at 600-650F.

Probably through "line must always go up" mentality.

Creative business, especially games, should really not be publicly traded or thought of as having major returns on investments.

It might work on start, but sooner or later the "current hit game" will fade out of popularity and then people will get fired and crunch will become the norm etc... in order to satisfy the "line must go up" mentality, but since game dev is a hit driven business that clashes with the "Line must go up" concept at its core since, being a hit driven business, means that it's totaly unpredictable.
I think it's inevitable that group chats will involve LLM agents in the future.
This union last initiated a strike in 2008 just as the financial crisis hit. They were in a weak position and didn’t get a good deal.

In 2009 Boeing decided to build the 787 in a non-union factory in SC instead of in Washington.

A few years later (can’t recall exactly - it was around 10 years ago), Boeing cut the pensions for new workers. The union was not in a strike position at the time.

In the last 5 years the company has pushed forward with the 737 Max program with all of its problems that you’ve likely heard of.

There was a leadership crisis and a new CEO is starting. They’ve made a big show about recommitting to Washington.

The contract that was voted on this week included a headline raise of 25% over 4 years, but buried in the details was the elimination of a 4% annual bonus.

Sounds like there is a generation’s worth of grievance to sort out, and this being a fraught moment for the company, the union has decided to press their advantage. More power to them. This could have been avoided if the company leadership had a long-term approach to management and employee relations.
> 20-30 Lambda functions for different services

My team of 6 engineers have a social app at around 1,000 DAU. The previous stack has several machines serving APIs and several machines handling different background tasks. Our tech lead is forcing everyone to move to separate Lambdas using CDK to handle each each of these tasks. The debugging, deployment, and architecting shared stacks for Lambdas is taking a toll on me -- all in the name of separation of concerns. How (or should) I push back on this?
Ziglang.org, Migrating from AWS to Self-Hosting
I feel I am the first type of audience, and have no problem understanding both versions(having programmed in multiple functional languages).

But when I see the bottom version I instantly understand what it does, its like I dont need my concious brain involved at all. I can just glance at the "shape" of the code, with my eyes just focusing at a few significant locations (the function call and the +), and I know what it does.

Maybe its because I grew up speaking imperatively. Maybe its that with the imperative version there is extra information in the "shape" of the code which my brain can use. But beeing more concise dont seem to help the second version, I dont read a constant number of characters per second.

> My experience is that a decent number of people still use RSA keys most of the time, but I don't feel like I have nearly enough of a sample size to conclude anything significant from that.

I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of people still use RSA for SSH keys for one or more of the following reasons:

1. A lot of tutorials about generating SSH Keys were written before ed25519, so if they follow an old tutorial they'll probably be generating an RSA key.

2. Older versions of OpenSSH, that you'd find on CentOS 7 and below, would default to RSA if you didn't specify a key type when running ssh-keygen.

3. There are some systems out there that don't support ed25519, though they are becoming rarer. If you have to deal with those systems then you're forced to use RSA (at least for that system).

4. Some of us have been using SSH keys from way before OpenSSH add support for ed25519 keys in 2014, so any long lived SSH keys won't be ed25519 keys (wow, ed25519 has now been about in OpenSSH for over 10 years).
