Are you really trying to learn something here? Because it seems you can't accept that you are thinking it wrongly and it has no back in CS (or outside). Google doesn't just want to tell you about structured and unstructured data, what you are looking for doesn't exist. Parallelism (in CS or outside of it) doesn't mean things start and end at the same time just that they happen in PARALLEL. That's really not such a difficult concept to grasp but you need to have some humility to just say: oops, I might have a wrong understanding and might need to fix it. This is healthy and make people smarter.
Why does it need to answer more than that?

You underestimate the opportunity that exists for automation out there.

In my own case I've used it to make simple custom browser extensions transcribing PDFs, I don't have the time and wouldn't of made the effort to make the extension myself, the task would of continued to be done manually. It took two hours to make and it works, that's all I need in this case.

Perfection is the enemy of good.
Yes, there is a difference, but one thing you should do when you see this difference and think it is critical consider whether you are parsing words way too strongly in a colloquial discussion on hacker news.

I'm trying to participate in a discussion. Not write comms that go to hundreds of millions of people. That is why the rules of hn are very clear on assuming the best, not the worst.
If it's lossless then there's zero loss and can be returned to 100% original file. However if algorithm decides what's important than it's by definition not lossless. Wouldn't be surprised to get something like that from Apple, they love to twist words into something they're not for marketing reasons. Like when they say that non-pro Iphone 15 has 2x telephoto while it does not have telephoto lens at all, it's just a digital zoom which all other phones have.
>I do not care if you take out redundant bits, you are still taking them out.

Why does it matter? Why does that make Apple deceptive? Lossless compression is as good as no compression, the only difference is the decompression time.

You could store the uncompressed RAW file on a filesystem with built in (lossless) compression, or you could store the losslessly compressed RAW file on a filesystem with no compression. Once you have opened the image in your editor or photo viewer, the bits in that application's memory that you are editing or viewing are identical.

Moreover RAW does not mean 'uncompressed'. It doesn't even mean losslessly compressed. Often RAWs use lossy compression. Both Canon and Nikon RAWs can.

What mitigations did you disable, specific ones you know wouldn't be a risk to what the machines were doing (mostly network, mostly kernel space)..?

Like, by disabling the mitigations does that leave the servers slightly more open to someone nefarious finding a way to use some kind of timing attack to get some knowledge of your wireguard keys?

(Genuine question as someone with very little knowledge on both wireguard and *bleed CPU flaws)

What does lean into mean here? A lot of software from 20 years ago compiles (if needed) and runs fine on the latest versions.
some data structures, math, and some concurrency are just fine in shell scripts. bash has arrays so you can do pretty elaborate data structures. where it falls down is being bug-prone. but some code is useful even if it's buggy
That's what the AGPL is designed to cover, and I think it's a major reason why a lot of software nowadays runs in the cloud. This is already a common way to circumvent the GPL.

Obfuscation only gets you so far. But faithfully recovering the original source code is not really the point. Even heavily obfuscated code is useful and can be worked with since in the end the program is still doing what it's supposed to do.
Those are different drives though, they're MegaScale DC 4000 while OP is using 4 TB Deskstars. Not sure if they're basically the same (probably). I've also had a bunch of these 4TB Megascale drives and absolutely no problems whatsoever in about 10 years as well. Run very cool as well (I think they're 5400 rpm not 7200 rpm).

The main issue with drives like these is that 4 TB is just so little storage compared to 16-20 TB class drives, it kinda gets hard to justify the backplane slot.
Have you ever zipped a file? Lossless does not mean data is lost. Lossless means data is not lost.

Context: Naughty Dog used a custom Lisp-alike (GOAL) to build the Jak & Daxter series on PS2. They left enough debugging information in that it was possible to reverse engineer. The OpenGOAL project has done so, and these games can now be run on all platforms that their GOAL compiler gets ported to (x86 for now AFAIK). Would be cool to port this to the Switch.
Wrong. Check out ZIP files. Raw files inside, compressed.
On the other hand demand for premium seats would be down, lowering their price and making a nicer ride more accessible. Overall this would net to lower prices for the same distribution of amenities on a given plane ride. Supply and demand theory would seem to suggest that equal supply with lower demand leads to lower prices overall. Supply could of course adjust as more people move to supersonic, but that means more people are now getting a better product than before. And if supply of regular jets remains (they're pretty expensive to just have sit there and not try to use for income), lower-end fares and seat availability invite people at the lower end of the resource spectrum to now buy more plane tickets.

You mean, the complexity of shell coding? Any operation that in a regular language is like foo.method(arg) in shell expands into something like ${foo#/&$arg#%} or `tool1 \`tool2 "${foo}"\` bar | xargs -0 baz`.

If someone (like you) had convinced the US that the Pax Inglesa was good enough, no Pax Americana would exist. What is to say is that let's say, the Pax Chinesa, could be better and more prosperous than the Pax Americana so we should not be afraid of ditching the US in favor of alternatives.
Ask HN: How Do You Sleep?
Has anyone here solved their “waking up at 3:30am almost every morning for no reason and then falling back asleep in an hour” problem? Thank you in advance.
Yes, but also No.

So there's this thing called "Threat model" and it includes some assumptions about some moving parts of the infra, and it very often includes assertion that a particular environment (like IDS log, signing infra surrounding HSM etc.) is "secure" (they mean outside of the scope of that particular threat model). So it often gets papered over, and it takes some reflex to say "hey, how we will secure that other part". There needs to be some conciousnes about it, because it's not part of this model under discussuon, so not part of the agenda of this meeting...

And it gets lost.

That's how shit happens in compliance-oriented security.
No.

Because the output of that review process is better training data.

You'd need to produce data that is more expensive to review and improve than random crap from users who are often entirely clueless, and/or that produces worse output of the training process to make using the real prompts as part of that process problematic.

Trying to compete with real users on producing junk input would prove a real challenge in itself - you have no idea the kind of utter incomprehensible drivel real users ask LLMs.

But part of this process also already includes writing a significant number of prompts from scratch, testing them, and then improving the response, to create training data.

From what I've seen, I doubt there is much of a cost saving in using real user prompts there - the benefit you get from real user prompts is a more representative sample, but if that sample starts producing shit you'll just not use it or not use it as much, or only use e.g. prompts from subsets of users you have reason to believe are more likely to be representative of real use.

Put another way: You can hire people to write prompts to replace that side of it far cheaper than you can hire people who can properly review the output of many of the more complex prompts, and the time taken to review the responses is far higher than the time to address issues with the prompts. One provider often tell people to spend up to ~1h to review responses that involve simple coding tasks, for example, but the prompt might be "implement BTree."
Another possible simplest explanation. The "we cannot train any policy compliance ... onto the chain of thought" is true and they are worried about politically incorrect stuff coming out and another publicity mess like Google's black nazis.

> I don't see it doing that anymore. And so goes the inspiration too.

I believe our collective technological progress still has a lot of low-hanging fruits to be picked that radically improve people's lives. I just think that the feedback loop for those in the technology field is not as immediate as it was a few years ago.

It was not so long ago that a determined kid with a cursory knowledge of HTML was able to single-handedly deliver the web presence of a whole company.

Things have progressed a bit since then and the barrier is now set much higher, but the potential to serve user and customer needs on mere cents per user per month is still there.

Every time you help a person achieve their goals (buy something, access a service, deal with a complaint, fill out a bureaucratic requirement, etc) with a mere click of a button, you are making the world a better place.

For example, life changed radically for the whole world once people were able to call a cab or order food with a press of a button in their smartphone. We even have services helping to reduce waste by connecting shops with soon-to-be-expired goods with potential customers who love a good deal. That is a small gesture that serves everyone.

The potential is still there. Just don't expect to get a medal for it.

Well. Point taken. You have an important core of truth to your argument about polarization.

But...

Strongly disagree.

I think that is a very unfair reading of what I wrote. I feel that you might have a bias which shows but that would be the same class of ad hominem as you have just displayed. That is why I choose to react even though it might be wise to let slepping dogs lie. We should minimize polarization but not to a degree where we cannot have civilized disagreement. You are then doing exactly what you preach not to do. Is that then FUD with FUD on top? Two wrongs make a right?

I was reacting on the implicit approval in mentioning that it had been upstreamed in the kernel. The reason for the first link. Regrets where clearly expressed.

Another HN trope is rehashing the same discussions over and over again. That was the reason for the second link. I would like to avoid yet another discussion on a topic which was put into light less than 14 days ago. Putting that more bluntly would have been impolite and polarizing. Yet here I am.

The sad part is that my point got through to you loud and clear. Sad because rather than simply dismissing as polarizing that would have been a great opener for a discussion. Especially in the context of ZFS and durability.

You wrote:

> Linus "regretted" it in the sense "it was a bit too early because bcachefs is moving at such a fast speed", and not in the sense "we got a second btrfs that eats your data for lunch".

If you allow me a little lighthearted response. The first thing which comes to mind was the "They're the same picture" meme[1] from The Office. Some like to move quickly and break things. That is a reasonable point of view. But context matters. For long term data storage I am much more conservative. So while you might disagree; to me it is the exact same picture.

Hence I very much object to what I feel is an ad hominem attack because your own worldview was not reflected suitably in my response. It is fair critique that you feel it is FUD. I do however find it warranted for a filesystem which is marked experimental. It might be the bees knees but in my mind it is not ready for mainstream use. Yet.

That is an important perspective for the OP to have. If the OP just want to play around all is good. If the OP does not mind moving quickly and break things, fine. But for production use? Not there yet. Not in my world.

Telling people to ignore my comment because you know people cannot be bothered to actually read the links? And then lecturing me that people might take the wrong spin on it? Please!

Arch (a Linux distribution) has excellent documentation that can be reused in other distros. Not the "how to install part" but rather the "how to configure" one.

I usually prefer to read their docs rather than the ones in man pages which are "flat" (all the initiation had the same importance)
Thanks for this, super useful. I'll update the post accordingly.
I know it's unrelated because this has an actual explanation, but I had an ex that stopped watches simply by wearing them for a while.

The model didn't matter, give them a few weeks, and they would stop. Put them aside for a while, they started back.

Never could figure out why, no particular behavior emerged, she changed jobs and houses and I couldn't see a pattern.

Sure, storage. Networking though? SIEMs receive and send data unencrypted? They should not. By sending the data in plain text you open up an attack surface to anyone sniffing the network.
hm you would need to use tools like google trends and some keyword research to find something people are already looking for naturally but isnt really there. That may work.
I don't have a mac, let alone a silicon one, so I can't test on it (I also have no patience for Apple's BS). However, it should work. At least SBCL itself runs, and Trial is mostly portable code, so it should, too, modulo some regressions.
Sorry for being so direct, but I don’t really understand why papers of such low quality are produced. Is this some school research? There’s so much water and zero interesting stuff. Hypermedia is an old idea and there’s so much more to it than just HTML elements with interaction outcomes defined by server. Hypermedia APIs, RMM, access control etc etc.
maybe it's mined, as in data-mining.
Most likely, I'm just passing on what's noted in the post. There's likely a lot more nuance to the actual decision-making :)
No no, that's not right. They're not asking for specific solutions. Any transformation of one grid to another will do.
The online documentation for Lotus (later IBM, later HCL) Notes/Domino is excellent. It's not purely a "site" because the documentation is a Notes database itself, but it is also available on the public Internet [1], so I think it counts.

> So modify the ZFS source

Way to miss the point
It's not a matter of making points, it's at least a semester's worth of courses on causal analysis, animal intelligence, the scientific method, explanation.

Causality isnt ordering. Take two contrary causal mechanisms (eg., filling a bathtube with a hose, and emptying it with a bucket). The level of the bath is arbitrarily orderable with respect to either of these mechanisms.

cf. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collider_(statistics)

Go on youtube and find people growing a nervous system in a lab, and you'll notice its an extremely plastic, constantly physically adapting, and so on system. You'll note the very biochemcial "signalling" you're talking about itself is involved in the change to the physical structure of the system.

This physical structure does not encode all prior activations of the system, nor even a compression of them.

To see this consider Plato's cave. Outside the cave passes by a variety of objects which cast a shadow on the wall. The objects themselves are not compressions of these shadows. Inside the cave, you can make one of these yourself: take clay from the floor and fashion a pot. This pot, like the one outside, are not compressions of their shadows.

All statistical algorithms which average over historical cases are compressions of shadows, and replay these shadows on command, ie., they learn the distribution of shadows and sample from this distribution demand.

Animals, and indeed all science, is not concerned with shadows. We don't model patterns in the night sky -- this is astrology -- we model gravity: we build pots.

The physical structure of our bodies encodes their physical structure and that of reality itself. They do so by sensor-motor modulation of organic processes of physical adaption. If you like: our bodies are like clay and this is fashioned by reality into the right structure.

In any case, we haven't the time or space to convince you of this formally. Suffice it to say that it is a very widespread consensus that modelling conditional probabilities with generative models fails to model causality. You can read Judea Pearl on this if you want to understand more.

Perhaps more simply: a video game model of a pot can generate an infinite number of shadows in an infinite number of conditions. And no statistical algorithm with finite space and finite time requirements will ever model this video game. The video game model does not store a compression of past frames -- since it has a real physical model, it can create new frames from this model.

Ok, so why is are GPL licenses so popular compared to BSD and MIT licenses? Why did the GNU foundation even bother writing a license at all?

Those other licenses do not require republishing, so it seems that authors of OSS value the additional republication requirements provided by the GPL license. Even in under the current copyright regime, one can (perhaps other-than-legally) decompile binary to recover source-like code, and then launder and reinject the learned improvements back into the open source project.

And the GPL license does not universally grant patent rights back to the source project.
