Half of any enterprise software's customers say they're looking to move but most won't actually do it.
Pretty much. A great chef can only make so many meals in a day. That limits how much money you can make. So if you want to be more than a middle class income (even that is hard to reach) you have to do something else - become a brand that people will pay for, or start a business.
New AI can ID brain patterns related to specific behavior
>Broadcom can excel at apparent ineptitude so well

"Apparent" is the key word here. They don't care about all customers. They want to keep maybe 10% of the biggest enterprise customers, get rid of everyone else, raise prices 400%, and keep half of the profits while reducing costs to almost zero. Sure the product will die, but the acquisition will pay for itself multiple times over.
I never claimed I could.
many times I’ve wanted to listen to a summarisation of a chapter from a textbook I’m reading. this can be useful in at least 3 ways:

1) it prepares me for the real studying. by being exposed to the gist of the material before actual studying, im very confident that the subsequent real study session would be more effective

2) i can brush up easily on key concepts, if im unable to sit properly, eg while commuting. but even if i were, a math textbook can be too dense for this purpose, and i often just want to refresh my memory on key concepts. and often im tired of _reading_ symbols or words, that’s when id prefer to actually _listen_, in a way, using a muscle that’s not tired

3) if im struggling with something, i can play this 5min chapter explanation multiple times a day throughout the week, while doing stuff, and engaging with it in a casual way. i think this would “soften” the struggle tremendously, and increase the chances of grasping the thing next time i tackle it

also id like a “temperature” knob, that i could tweak for how much in detail i want it to go

He said if you were going to fool the guest, you had to make up for that lost energy by doing something else (or presumably lower the price)

The guest is paying for an overall experience. There are plenty of experiences where a guest is happy to pay to be lied to, like a magic show or a strip club or the Olive Garden. As long as the totality of the experience is providing enough value.

Now if you specifically chose the restaurant because of their honesty (for whatever that means), then it’s a different story
To add additional context to my other reply, I do not find this question rude, but I do get frustrated with people who seem to think our food problem is easy to solve.

My wife and I have agonized for most of our daughter's life about feeding her. She has autism and ADHD, and will often forget to eat if we do not work hard to get her to eat. If she eats a food whose textures, smell, or taste trigger her, she will vomit immediately. She hates to vomit, and will refuse to eat ANYTHING after this happens (even her comfort foods). She doesn't want to be around food at all at that point.

She is very small for her age and underweight (we have routine consultations with her endocrinologist on her growth, and have had countless conversations on whether we should start growth hormones with her. There are so many things to consider around that decision, it has been quite a challenge).

We have a dietician that we consult with regularly, both about her eating and her growth. She, along with both our endocrinologist and pediatrician, feel that getting her calories is the most important thing, and that we can sacrifice quality for quantity, because even when she has freedom to eat whatever junk she wants, she has trouble eating enough. Both the dietician and her therapist think it is very important we never turn food into a battle, since she already has so many issues around eating that we don't want to make it worse.

I appreciate your question being in good faith, but I do get frustrated when people make comments about my daughter's diet, as if we haven't agonized over this for the 8 years of her life. This is something we deal with every day, and I find it both frustrating and amusing when people think they can solve the problem in a single internet comment.

Poor example, they already are. You require a special license. This is a tax, and a rather severe one. Never mind that those drivers are also directly responsible if their vehicle malfunctions. That's how some big rig drivers are able to get 150 years in jail because their brakes went out.

You're assuming that the only reason to pay for Pave is to get a negotiation advantage. My point is that there are other reasons, for example, to make sure that you're not below market.

I agree, my point is we need to be using the correct threat model when thinking about those risks. You might feel comfortable storing your unreplaceable valuables in a house that is reasonably secure against burglars, even if it's not perfectly secure. But you'd feel otherwise about an oceanfront property regularly facing 30 foot storm surges. I'm saying the latter is the correct frame of mind to be in when thinking about whether to put data onto an Internet-connected computer.

I think it's more like:

- african americans are statistically more likely to originate from lower on socio economic ladder than, say, asian americans

Thus when you get a bunch of job applicants, you might get an asian american with a Yale degree (James) and an african american with a community college degree (John). Affirmative action or other DEI pressures might force you to hire both James and John, but James will probably be able to outperform John due to higher initial degree of education. Furthermore, James may have had parents who networked and ensured he got good internships and experience growing up while John didn't have that opportunity.

So it's not that the company is offering John a "dog job", it's just, James's capacity to perform in current role and take on new responsibilities is at a higher initial state than John's, so it's not unthinkable he would climb corporate ladder faster than John given those initial advantages. Pay gap is a natural consequence that follows.

- Largely written in a safe language, like Rust (political turmoil willing).

- It would be UNIX-like in some fashion.

- Be immutable or partially-immutable (like macOS).

- Support containerization.

- Be capabilities-based and support Mandatory Access Control.

Pretty amazing job of cherry picking and exaggerating stats to justify what looks to be a rather unimpressive operation.
Good question. As far as I'm aware, outside of a few special circumstances (like birth records), the vast majority of legal record preservation requirements are seven years with some being as long as ten years. Of course, with the service life of some military ships and aircraft now being stretched >30-40 years, I can imagine it might be useful to have records of component failures and replacements, especially for statistical modeling.

In the case of a ship (or sub), I'd assume that they'd rotate optical media archives off the vessel every year or two and transfer them to some central database. After all, a vessel can be lost and the data is also useful in the aggregate.
FWIW, I believe RealPage works to lower rent. Every landlord wants to say, “We charge below the 50% mark”, thereby steadily lowering it over time.
18 months ago when I moved cross country to the Atlanta area I was delighted and excited to find out that my house was 10 min from a real butcher! OMG, what I always wanted. Then I talked to the counter man (no butcher on site), bought the meats, and then asked some questions about the curing process, and discovered that the reason the meats tasted like Boar's Head is that butcher shop chain (3 stores) explicitly taste competed against Boar's Head. To the point of being "nitrate-free", oops celery is in the label.

No point paying the premium (I would have paid double for authentic charcuterie), and then I tried to buy a goose during the Holidays and nope, can't do that.

> You can have the benefit by making it a flag while also maintaining minimal surprise.

You're ignoring the benefits of good defaults. So no, I strongly disagree. Your approach does not give the same benefit.

> At the cost of increased surprise and decreased utility.

I specifically and explicitly acknowledged it as a cost.

> But I don't think you need to double down on saying this was the right way to do things.

I 100% believe it was the right way to go. As in, it is my opinion that it is a better user experience overall. More explicitly, if I could go back in time, I would make exactly the same design choice even knowing what I know now.

> You built a tool for things you needed

I didn't build it just for me. ripgrep started out as a tool to benchmark the regex crate. But when I noticed it was as fast as GNU grep in common cases, I decided to turn it into a tool for others to use. At this point, I specifically chose the design I did not just because of its impact on me, but the impact that older tools with a similar design (ack and ag) had on untold legions of programmers. I thought it was the better UX then and I think it is the better UX now.

> But it's also not surprising what are advantages to you are disadvantages to others.

I don't understand why you're so focused on "surprise." I'm not surprised at all by anything you said. And this insistence on ignoring my acknowledgment of my design having a cost is pretty frustrating.
What us UI hackers would find helpful as an adjunct to this is a few polynomial coefficient terms fitted to each of the x->R,G,B color scheme mappings.

Then we could generate our own scale with whatever number of steps an app requires. Or compute on the fly for a continuous scheme.
$myDayJob certainly is. I don’t really know if we’re a whale or not. We sure aren’t a minnow, though.
I believe the argument here is that the way to do that isn't by establishing a private business that flaunts and undermines those government regulations, but by changing the policies through government process.

Obviously that's easier said than done, and SV has a track record of "ask forgiveness not permission" as a successful tactic for effecting policy change. But many times it results in indefinite undermining of government which leads to selective enforcement and cartels, which is worthy of criticism (of both government and VC-powered undermining of government).
The problem is that plans only last until you get punched in the face. They are your idea. Not your customers.

Why not per credit sales in addition to the bundles?

Or only sell in bundles of 100 (or some other number)?
So it is my contention that LLMs exhibit behavior far beyond what we could reasonable predict from a next-token-prediction task on its training set. Therefore I don't really like the framing of "this is present in the training data" as a response to LLM capability except in a very narrow sense.

One issue is that we anthropomorphise -- we see training data that, to a human, looks similar to the task at hand, and therefore we say that this task is represented in the training data, despite the fact that in the next-token-prediction sense that reflection does not exist (unless your model for next-token-prediction is as complex as the LLM itself).

My question to you -- what would falsify your belief that the LLMs just reflect tasks from the training set? Or at least, what would reduce your confidence in this? The letter sequence stuff for me seems like pretty clear evidence against.

They use GPUs under the hood for inference/fine-tuning and charge by token. Fireworks will even let you deploy a Lora serverless at the same pricing as base model.

But not aware of any “lambda”-like serverless for any old CUDA workload. Given loading times, it wouldn’t really make sense. Something like CloudRun or KNative for GPUs would be cool.
> first gained popularity in how to install Homebrew in macOS

That doesn't really make the argument that it's a macOS user who wrote it though does it? It just makes the argument that it was potentially inspired by Homebrew, which has existed on Linux for half a decade.

I didn't really read the rest of your spiel in detail. I asked why you have an opinion about a person I didn't ask for a breakdown of package management and software installation best practices for the last few decades.
It's a matter of opinion, but no, I disagree. People are building new software all the time. It all has bugs. It will always have bugs. The only way to build secure software is to increase its cost by a factor of 100 or more (think medical and aviation software). No one is going to accept that.

Computer security is impossible at the prices we can afford. That doesn't mean we can't use computers, but it does mean we need to assess the threats appropriately. I don't think most people do.

Ryan - You aren't wrong, but I'd note that in my local grocery stores, it's generic brands and your Smithfield / Oscar Mayer / Hormel in the cold case. You find Boar's Head at the in-store deli, sliced to order, and priced higher. So the illusion of premium here extends beyond marketing dress.

Curing it seeks to prevent the product from degrading on its own terms. It doesn't really help protect against contamination that happens after the curing. So, while the cured meat itself isn't a great environment for bacteria/other pathogens to grow, if it gets other organic material on it, or if something else happens to compromise the curing, it can still be a vector.

You are - obviously he's not saying "everyone" will get hit by a car. This is obvious, because that's clearly untrue. In fact, out of 8 billion people on Earth I don't think a single one would argue that "everyone" will get hit by a car.

What's more likely here, you misunderstood? Or you found someone 1 in 8 billion, someone truly one of a kind?

Right, so you misunderstood. Worse, you know you misunderstood but you proceeded anyway. That's dishonest - if you can't make your argument without lying and smearing your opponent, your argument doesn't deserve to be spoken.
Simple answer - oled/(something)led are much better at daylight, because lcd have semi-transparent layer of electrodes over display, where lost about 20% of light.

If somebody invent cheap lcd without electrodes on cover glass (may be all electrodes on back side), things could change, but for now people buy lcd because of cheapness.
I believe one side talks out both sides of their mouth, by saying employees need to be passionate but also CEOs and other execs have to highly paid in order to motivate them. I don't think that's a strawman.
>This strongly implies that racism is no longer a meaningfully impactful problem. That would not be true.

That was the point I weas trying to prove from the start. The moment you point the fingers at the causes of our massive problem (ruling elite, economy policies, etc) and away from racism, people will immediately accuse you of discrediting racism as a problem. I never said racism it's not a problem, I said as a society we have much bigger problems that impacts everyone, not just this or that group.

Like I said above, the elite take 9 out of the 10 piece of the wealth pie, give half a piece to one class, half of piece to the other, and say "hey look, the other guy's class is why you only have half a piece, go fight him over it to claim back what's yours", and you keep focusing on that other half piece instead of the other 9 pieces.

If you can't afford a house anymore, and inflation ate away your savings, and your wage has stagnated, it's not because one skin color made a targeted attack on precisely other skin color. Like I said, it's haves vs have nots now, not one race vs another.

>Planned and coordinated division is most visibly on display when a marginalized group is suddenly, widely demonized.

Who is currently being demonized, where are they being demonized, and who is the one demonizing them?

Can you point that out where you see it? And please let it not be Twitter or other social media garbage.

Not all startups, thankfully! Perhaps startups founded by younger and less experienced people are more likely to work that way? The last three startups I've worked for were all founded by experienced people who had sane ideas about management, embracing the marathon-not-a-sprint attitude, and it's been great. I just hit the two-year mark at my current startup job, and it feels like a totally sustainable pace. I hope it continues for years.

Pave is a company that has been snapping up other existing companies that performed this kind of aggregation of compensation data. Basically companies look at this benchmarking data to figure out what they should pay for different jobs and levels. Just some extent companies genuinely need this kind of data to figure out what to do. But I also think it breaks supply and demand. Companies are not discovering price of labor but just using each other’s signals to decide what to pay collectively
