I worked at a US startup from my world country and that company dealt exclusively with PII (i.e. IDs, face etc) of people, including from the armed forces, of NA and some European countries.

I had access to any data I wanted to see, download on my work laptop (we all worked remotely). I didn't have to ask anyone, I didn't have to justify it, and AFAIK it was not audited. Logged? I don't know, maybe it was. I had sent mail once regarding to a director and SVP and never received even an ack. Oh by the way, everybody had access, not just me. For that no other access type was required either. Company email was sufficient. And IIRC even the stage env. had product data and stage was truly fair game.

No, I did not misuse and used it handful of times for debugging purposes. I doubt anybody did.
That's a fancy way of saying YouTube is about to get much worse.
I know HN is not a place for political commentary, but why Israel would do it now when everyone tries to make them de-escalate?
SOME of them are. A tiny fraction. At 4-5nm.

That's a hard nope, for me.

I have an OG mac.com email, and some woman used it to sign a donation to ASPCA, a number of years ago.

They then sold it to some liberal group, who then sold it to some ultra-liberal group.

I get dozens of extreme-left emails, every day. It's crazy.

I'm not extreme anything, and want to puke, just reading the subject lines (for the record, the extreme-right is an even more effective emetic).

I would be interested (but not really that interested) in finding out who these folks would sell my email to.
This may be a surprise to you, but if they can't pay the larger fine... it just goes unpaid. Funny that. Nor does escalation likely work... if you go seize all the office chairs and other assets, then they can no longer conduct the business which would eventually make it possible for them to pay the fine.

Attempting to be more harsh often results in less harsh results.

There are definitely plenty of people who would say that using a hosting provider doesn't count, even if you're deploying the software yourself.

The one generally accepted exception to this is network protection. You don't want to expose your home ip address to the outside world if you can help it, so a lot of people use tailscale, cloud flare tunnels, or a vps as a proxy.
The problem is that for the vast majority of use, LLM output is not revised or edited, and very many times I'm convinced the output wasn't even fully read.
My understanding is that they were extremely well concealed, and would have been difficult to detect with simple internal visual inspection.
In its current state it’s mostly just something fun to toy around with if you’re interested in game engine development; once it’s more mature I’ll probably ship a game on it. I have POC multi-player setup where you can telnet to a box and join a 3D world with other users.
One strong point of Grammarly comes from its friendly display of diffs (which is somewhat similar to what Cursor does).
This project simply uses some predefined prompts to generate text and then replaces it. There are countless plugins that can achieve this, such as the OpenAI translator.

If this tool really wants to compete with Grammarly.
That was a rational capitalist argument. If a company has an opportunity to make money, they will. Any better than 'good enough' isn't rational and the people running that company should be fired. In the long term the entire industry will slowly adopt this and the standard of care may rise slightly as these gains are used for competitive advantage instead of pure profit but that will take a while at best and relies on a true free market, which healthcare definitely isn't.
We switched to glass and never looked back. We had the space to store them without issues.

Previously we had started hand-washing the plastic Tupperware/Ziplock containers because of warping in the dishwasher. They also stained and discoloured and no matter how much cleaning hand or machine wouldn't go back to looking clean.

We still hand-wash the plastic lids but the glass goes into the dishwasher. Now we have no more warped lids or containers. The containers are microwave safe. We also don't have breakage issues we haven't broken one in 5+ years.

To each their own I guess. My glass/steel dishes are vastly outlasting any plastic ones I've ever owned and are more enjoyable to use.
I'm not very familiar with gstreamer-rs so this comment might not be super useful, but NComm doesn't currently have any streaming capabilities. If everything is Rust though, the local publishers and subscribers use `Arc` shared pointers to send data between Nodes so sending large amounts of data between Nodes has very little overhead.
> Google has been playing the SEO cat and mouse game forever, so can startups with a fraction of the experience be expected to do any better at filtering the noise out of fresh web scrapes?

Google has been _monetizing_ the SEO game forever. They chose not to act against many notorious actors because the metric they optimize for is ad revenue and and those sites were loaded with ads. As long as advertisers didn’t stop buying, they didn’t feel much pressure to make big changes.

A smaller company without that inherent conflict of interest in its business model can do better because they work on a fundamentally different problem.
> Imagine this was Hezbollah detonating hundreds or thousands of devices in Israel?

If these were devices used predominantly by IDF, I wouldn't consider it an act of terror either. However, Hezbolla prefers to indiscriminately target civilians.

That's not always true. Layoffs can spur growth if you are dropping dead weight, for example by eliminating under performing business units, consolidating redundant functionality, or simply correcting previous bad decisions that led to over-hiring.
None of the comments at the time of writing this comment actually answer your question in regards to cobb tuning devices I’ll try.

It depends.

It’s not that these devices really significantly increase power, it’s that all the mods that do make power are near useless without a tune, and this device allows that tune.

Recent engines may suffer in performance due to the ever stricter emissions standards. Earlier engines from like 10 years ago probably benefited from emissions standards because things like direct injection, higher compression ratio and so on all both increase performance and reduce emissions(this is oversimplified)
So in a very recent car a device like this might actually be able to be used to give a “better” tune to the car that sacrifices emissions for performance. It’s like the government and the manufacturer of the car make choices on the trade off between engine performance and good emissions, this device allows you to make a difference choice.

However, that’s not really how I’ve seen these used because that would be a very expensive way to gain a small amount of power. The thing is that with any car from like the last 20 years or more, if you do modifications like high flow exhaust, bigger cams, adding a turbo where there was none or adding a bigger turbo, and so on, will all, almost certainly, decrease the performance of your car if those mods start to add so much air flow that the default tune can’t keep up. It should also be mentioned that running an engine like that will ruin it quickly. If then, you use a device like this to tune the car to suit the mods, you can double or more the performance of the engine.

I’m glossing over a lot of details here, like for instance ecus are sometimes closed loop systems that can to some extent adjust the fuel flow with increased air flow, but it’s likely that the engine will give you an error code and display the check engine symbol. It should also be noted that some ecus will go into open loop when you floor the car, which is when you want the most power. This can be really bad if you have mods that increase the airflow and volumetric efficiency of the engine. Point is, your mods are useless without a tune.
... that beeps and boops nonstop. Yes, but on top of that the error rate in measurements is staggering. It's difficult even to get reliable vital signs. Also, much of the stuff we're measuring is of unclear purpose. We don't have a solid understanding of what the measurements actually mean for the patient.
I mean just from a pure opsec perspective, you'd think they'd have popped them open to look right?
> It seems clear enough to me that Israel’s goal is to prevent Hezbollah from continuing to launch rockets at Israeli towns in the north. Killing is a means to that end. One may disagree with that choice of means, but I don’t see how you can claim that “Israel’s goals entirely revolve around killing people.”

Well, let me start with the necessary disclaimer: First, I'm not an expert on geopolitics or Israel or the ME. That's probably obvious. It could be that my coarse understanding is just completely wrong, but I think it's a broadly correct picture which is lacking lots of detail.

I also don't know much about the conflict with Hezbollah specifically, but what I see from Israel tells me that the prevention of rocket smay not be their top goal. I also believe that even if it is, killing is a means that I disagree with!

The rhetoric I hear about Hamas (not Hezbollah, so it may be different there, but I suspect it's not substantially so) from the Netanyahu administration is about murder. Protecting Israelis is a means to an end; the end goal is to kill every single member of Hamas (and, reading between the lines, the expulsion of all Palestinians). It's widely reported that many Israelis openly feel Netanyahu is not making meaningful efforts to recover hostages, and I've also understood that significant lapses in Israeli security were what made the Oct 7 attack last year possible. Meanwhile, some of the things Netanyahu says about Hamas and Palestine sounds genocidal, frankly.

Again, could be wrong about all that. Every word on the subject is biased in one way or another. Additionally, I know very little of the situation with Hezbollah, so I'm extrapolating: The prioritization of murder over safety that I see in the war with Hamas demonstrates to me that Israel is not making choices in the utmost interest of safety, generally, if the murder of its enemies is on the table.

Of course, I'll also reiterate that even if all of the above is wrong, their means are unacceptable to me: I don't believe one of the most powerful nations on the planet needs to murder its impoverished neighbors to keep itself safe. It's much easier than diplomatic and nonlethal approaches, yes; but I don't think it's necessary.
In the US not every vote has the same weight, so they can't be a democracy to begin with.

After a few months of picking out a new budget TV, I bought a 55" TCL 4K QLED TV with a miniLED backlight (basically equivalent to Samsung's "Neo QLED") for $700. One of the highest quality TVs I've ever seen - couldn't notice a difference between this TV and an OLED one. The blacks are perfectly black, looking at it from a 2m distance - even if I looked closer, I think I wouldn't notice that nearby LEDs are lighted up too. For $700 I didn't expect much, but it comes even with Dolby Vision (which Samsung infamously doesn't support!) and it has a 144 Hz panel. I don't know the exact price range for the TVs mentioned in the article, but if I can get this high quality in a $700 TV - I couldn't care less about some quantum dots.
Killing is not the point. It’s to feed raw terror to terrorists, giving them a nice taste of their own medicine.
...and supported by the other oligarchs
Yeah, but how much did that actually change? I mean, the media sensationalized every little thing that happened, to make people feel as if the world was ending (or being saved, depending on the news outlet). However, Corporations still ran the country through their bought-and-paid-for U.S. and state representatives, just as in administrations before and after.

My HN comment, linked to as [0], was on a submission about the history of NovaMin - iirc it was originally used for soldiers in Vietnam, then came to be used for repair of teeth.

You can do your own experiment: $10 for a tube, plus $6 shipping. If you have sensitive teeth it’s worth a trial.
I just got a banner from that EU website. Clearly they think it necessary, and they're not a business.
There really isn’t any de-escalation. Hezbollah continues to bomb Northern Israel and the IDF continues to strike back. There are still hundreds of thousands of displaced Israelis who can’t go back to their homes.

I assume FrustratedMonky's comment was satirical, given that it appears to have been written like an LLM and starts with a "but, but, but" which is how you might represent someone you disagree with presenting their argument.
It is pretty transparent election cycle fear/hype rustling. Also, these folks think 78-year-old Donald Trump is the guy who is going to calm things down globally!? Lastly, we are currently in a period where there are no active US military troops involved in combat operations since, what, the 1990s?
And we saw the Powers That Be(tm) ("elites") pull every single card in their playbook with wanton abandon to take him out, this still remains the case.

One of the things I thank Trump for is making me realize democracy is really just another way for the Powers That Be(tm) to attain and maintain power, just a lot more subtlely compared to other methods. Trump for whatever reason momentarily managed to break that cycle, and he's paying for it.

I consider this both a blessing and a curse. It's a blessing in that I don't have to spend any of my precious time giving a fuck about my vote anymore, but it's a curse in that I also realize humanity hasn't changed much since our ape days.
They said nothing about it being “only” on the left.

I somewhat expect authoritarianism on the right and therefore would hold the left (to which I belong) at a higher standard.
> This is not an empty phrase: we have observed performance losses of 10-15% in extremely CPU-limited cases just by calling XInputGetState for all controllers every frame while none are connected!

Is this why a game renders only a few frames per second and slows down in time when my wireless Xbox controller disconnects due to low battery? I always assumed it was some mechanism to make the gameplay “fair” if your controller had an intermittent disconnect.
Well, first, there's no de-escalation happening with Hezbollah. Israel, Hezbollah, and Iran are more or less openly at war. We don't talk about it much because the attack failed, but Iran launched a mass drone assault against Israel a few months back. Israel recently exploded Ismael Haniyeh, the political leader of Hamas, in Tehran. Hezbollah rocket attacks on Northern Israel, which killed half a youth soccer team, have more or less evacuated that whole region. Hezbollah is not Hamas: they are a military peer (a weaker one, but still) to Israel.

Second, the reporting I've seen (incl. "confirmation" from US intelligence sources) is that this was a use-it-or-lose-it situation: that Hezbollah operatives were on the verge of discovering it.

Model Merging: A Survey
Glasslock brand makes really good stacking glass containers that are oven safe. I find it’s much easier to clean oil out of them compared to plastic containers, it takes like 2 tours of duty storing mapo tofu to stain plastic pale orange forever, but the glass never stains. We have like 8x identical ones so they store super easy, and we keep the lids vertically in a plate holder. A++ would recommend to anyone who is bothered by a jumble of plastic containers and mismatched lids. 3.5 cups is good for most leftovers jobs (sometimes a little big, rarely 2x is too small) and is just right for a 2-person mini casserole job like making Mac n cheese.

Alternatively, when storing food, portion it into glass containers that can quickly be microwaved. That's our approach, makes lunches both when working at home and in office easy and we're more likely to actually eat/finish the leftovers before they go bad.

> Not building a whole browser from scratch, an impossible task, but building just enough of a layout engine+run time to host web apps.

Isn't that exactly what a webview IS...? It's been like that since the .CHM days (used for Windows help files, which were just web pages inside a lightweight web view).

What you're describing IS the layout engine, which Blink, Webkit, Gecko (and a bunch of deprecated older ones) already are. That is already the hardest part of a browser, which is why there are so many reskins of those three renderers.

If you want to build "just enough of a layout engine" from scratch, you pretty much ARE writing the hardest part of a browser.

HTML/JS/CSS have three decades of backward compatibility baggage using different nonstandard syntaxes and vaguely defined rules that makes any one of them very difficult to parse and optimize, much less the three together. It takes huge companies many years to come up with a new layout engine. Even Microsoft tried (many times) and gave up on that and went to Blink.

For me, the difference is that work is something you have to do no matter what. Play is something you can do purely for enjoyment and don't have to keep doing when it's not fun.

I don't think that you can work and play at the same time. They're two entirely different things. You can, of course, have a lot of fun doing work -- but it's still work, not play.

Even granting that we can disregard a really huge factor here, which I'm not sure we really can, one can not know beforehand how the clustering of the vocabulary is going to go pre-training, and its speculated that both at the center and at the edges of clusters we get random particularities.

Not that oligarchy is good, but is democracy really good? Is it even really different? It is basically letting easily manipulated and uneducated people decide things. And they are manipulated by news media, which in turn is manipulated by the same powerful people this study claims are controlling policy. Today we have social media as well but most people think it’s bad - so how can they feel good about choices influenced by social media? Curious what hacker news users think, because I feel like my whole life democracy has only been talked about positively.
