I just took the time to read through all source code and docs. Nice ideas. I like to experiment with LLMs running on my local computer so I will probably convert this example to use the light weight Python library Rank-BM25 instead of Elastic Search, and a long context model running on Ollama. I wouldn’t have prompt caching though.

This example is well written and documented, easy to understand. Well done.
Let me know which right-wing state allows for private entities to forge their own laws. The closest example I can think of is Disney but even that is a huge stretch to call "making their own laws".

I’m not British, I’m just not ignorant of Indian history. At partition the entire British population of India was about 100,000 including the army, civil service, civilians and family of same.

Even if you round up to 1,000 the number of ICS officers and dectuple to 10,000 you get a trivial number of returnees to the UK. The British Army in India returning would have had nugatory impact considering the British had just fought WW2.

Leaving India was bad for the British upper classes because there were fewer jobs as officers that would keep a man in the store to which he had become accustomed on salary in the army. The ICS was less important than that in terms of numbers and its peak social impact was as an inspiration for the British civil service. The ICS is the only organisation in British India that might plausibly have had a large impact on the culture of the British civil service and it was too small to have had an impact by numbers alone as you originally posited.

Transcript for Yann LeCun: AGI and the Future of AI – Lex Fridman Podcast
I've never used Pivotal Tracker, but at my dayjob we're moving from Jira to Azure DevOps (ADO) - due to supposedly high Jira license costs...Now, historically i have been quite critical of Jira - because its always felt so complicated for me. But, now having lived in ADO for about 6 months, i hate it! I hate ADO with a passion! At first, i thought that its simplicity was great...and then started running into loads of walls - even for simple things. I never thought i'd live to see the day when i wish to go back to Jira. Then again, as others here have noted, maybe the complexity of Jira is not necessarily native, and simply a fact that jira *allows* for way too much complexity, but that, it can be made more sane/sensible (such as by shutting off a bunch of customization, etc.). And, who knows, maybe the crappy over-simpleness of ADO that i'm painfully living through might also be a thing that was poorly customized at my dayjob...But regardless, i guess right now I *prefer* the pain of Jira vs the pain of ADO. Clearly, there must be other products that sit in the happy Goldi locks middle (not as complex as Jira, but not as simplistic as ADO) that help teams actually get work done, and that are not so costly, etc.!
All of them. This is the purpose of this thread.

I use their moderators to see exactly what their rules are. Long-posts, depicting the situation as-is, no derogatory terms, and all get removed within 1h after posting.
Same here, I get frequent spam on one specific (very popular) issue, and they always take care of it within an hour or two. I hide the spam myself to protect the users on the web (I can't do anything about the phishing emails though that gets sent [by default I think ?]), and their moderation wipe the spam account and sends a quick email to confirm.

Usually it's a new user who clones a few repositories to pass whatever mitigation they have.

Always get a "lots of reports, this may take a while" email first though. I don't think I ever not got that one.

I think there's something to be said about sending - by default - user generated content by email automatically if you've replied once to a thread. Lots of bad defaults here imho.
Ask HN: Trying to find a UI framework comparison site posted here
I've tried my best searching in algolia to find it, but to no luck.

It was a site posted here that let you compare various common actions and methods across the different JS UI frameworks (Vue3, Vue2, React, Svelte).

I believe it was posted sometime within the past 3-4 months, but I also use the past feature a lot so I can't guarantee it.

I thought it was really cool, but I didn't bookmark it, and I've recently found myself needing it.

Any help is appreciated, thank you!

To describe a situation as-is. Not taking sides.

Because the population is getting stupider by the day (their doing) and it's being programmed. I don't like a re-programmed populations.
> It is a common misunderstanding (I hear “we could have just made IPv4 bigger” a lot) but apart from the routing issues above (needing to replace every router before it could work at all), the endpoints are also a problem.

Don't forget all the DNS software: "A" records are hard-coded to 32-bits, so if you wanted >32 you needed a record type (what we now call "AAAA", RFC 3596).

Then all the DNS programming APIs had to be updated and all the C header files with new structs.

Originally it was about scalability - signed/encrypted cookies are stateless, and hence (in theory) allow easy horizontal elastic scaling: just share the key with the new nodes. But I suspect that in a lot of cases now it is because it is easier initially to throw a key into an environment variable than standup a database, sort out caching, etc. It’s only later that you start thinking about revocation and idle timeouts and key rotation and all the other stuff that it becomes clear that it's not that simple to do well.
If you're talking about label bias then you don't need to solve label bias to 'solve' hallucinations when the model has already learnt internally when it's bullshitting or going off the rails.
Well NIST says don't use C++ either: https://www.nist.gov/itl/ssd/software-quality-group/safer-la...

So what, you want everything written in RUST on a linux kernel with hard real-time patches? It uses machine vision anyway, which has no hard guarantees at all. The software it uses to detect lanes or cars is probabilistic by it's very nature.

Python does pretty good at soft real time if you manage your own event loop and disable the garbage collector, and you're a lot less likely to get "crash the entire stack" style memory allocation bugs. Sure, GO or RUST would be better, I think CPP could be worse if handled inexpertly.
In the UK the NHS recommends “pacing” for ME/CFS, which is a very slow, gradual increase in activity without triggering over-exertion - same as what you found effective. I believe there are some materials and support groups available to people who qualify for them, it’s definitely one of the recognised treatments. [1]

Changing a lifestyle in support of recovery is of course much harder than taking medication. Can people’s jobs adapt? Can the benefits / social security systems? Do people have support networks which they can rely on? So I agree that maintaining health is super complex, and there are additional social/economic challenges here.

> “Surprisingly, those Trump voters with higher political knowledge actually strengthened their belief in election misinformation when exposed to disputed tags, compared to a control condition without tags,” Blanchard said.

This isn’t surprising. Trump supporters with high political knowledge are more aware of how the sausage is made, and are more skeptical of the media and fact checkers than those who have paid less attention.
My definition is the ability to show a situation for what it is.
Now tell me, is this correct, according to its definition?
JERRY: We didn't bet on if you wanted to. We bet on if it would be done.

KRAMER: And it could be done.

JERRY: Well, of course it could be done! Anything could be done! But it only is
done if it's done. Show me the levels! The bet is the levels.

Again, the point isn't that there is a possible tradeoff to be made, nor that the configuration option isn't available, nor even that some people tweak that setting for this very reason. It was stated that better RT performance will automatically improve audio quality because the audio system may automatically switch resampling methods on xrun, and that is specifically what I'm doubting.

The bet isn't that it could be done. Anything could be done! Show me that it is being done!
I think the OP may be referring to this slide that Yann LeCun has presented on several occasions:

https://youtu.be/MiqLoAZFRSE?si=tIQ_ya2tiMCymiAh&t=901

To quote from the slide:

* Probability e that any produced token takes us outside the set of correct answers
* Probability that answer of length n is correct
* P(correct) = (1-e)^n
* This diverges exponentially
* It's not fixable (without a major redesign)

> Legitimate interest is one of the lawful reasons for processing personal data.

Only if it is genuinely legitimate interest, in which case as you say they shouldn't even need to ask.

The reason they make them annoying to disable is the hope that people will stop bothering. In fact, they are usually hidden inside nested concertina UI elements so people don't even see the option to object. Dark pattern through and through.

The reason they ask even when only collecting/tracking strictly necessary data, is to try turn the public against the regulations by adding an unnecessary irritation. They want us to blame the legislators for causing us an inconvenience, when in fact the companies are doing so very deliberately because they are annoyed at the inconvenience they are caused by having to be transparent about the stalking that they do (or try to do).

Sort of. And other similar regulations. Though it isn't actually GDPR-compliant by my reading, not by a long shot, the way most implement it.

Ranking of popular image generation AI models (incl. Flux) from 2M votes
Efficiently evaluating the performance of text-to-image models is difficult as it inherently requires subjective judgment and human preference, making it hard to compare different models and ultimately quantify progress. We developed a system to efficiently source annotations at scale and based on this present a framework for rigorous evaluation of image generation models.
With this, we present the ranking of four popular image generation models, MidJourney, DALLE-3, Stable Diffusions, and the latest star, Flux.1. The ranking is based on more than 2 million annotations across 4512 images and three criterias; style, coherence, and text-to-image alignment. Through integration with mobile apps, we reach a diverse set of annotators and we show that the regional distribution closely resembles the distribution of the world population ensuring lower risk of biases.

If you want to get a quick feel of our system, check out our free Compare Tool (https://www.rapidata.ai/compare) which resembles a single one of the 27k comparisons created for the ranking.

the manufacturers should not be doing anything other than whatever their customers are willing to pay for.

The article is full of these false dichotomies, and relies on the bias of its audience to replace reason with hope. Most of its assumptions would be reasonable to make if we had the carbon dioxide levels of the 1980s, but that's four decades ago. The hope for technological progress without sacrifice is understandable, but wishful thinking nonetheless.

I mean it has variable names, configurations, documentation, a file extension and lots of code and a history behind it, so the strange thing to me is trying to suggest a replacement phrase as if you don't know what it is, acting like it's some high-brow language used in a blog to look smart, complaining about how this makes it less accessible (paraphrasing a little), then rolling back saying you dabbled in Nix and acting like you know what it is.

But then, you do you.

Amazing!

> worst-case latency timings a real-time Linux provides are quite useful to, say, the systems that monitor car brakes

I really hope my car brakes don't run Linux ;D …

(they should be running something that has a formal proof of correctness, which is outside the scope of realistically possible for Linux or any other "full-scale" OS)

(pretty sure the article author came up with that example and no Linux kernel developer is aiming for car brakes either. Same for large CNC machines - they can kill and have killed people.)

I first noticed this on a flight to Paris. I was building a Flutter app using Firestore, and tho I had not paid for the onboard wifi (I was doing local development) I was connected and all of my Firestore calls were succeeding.

I thought this was novel, and assumed it was just something to do with websockets, so I switched to another, non-firebase-but-yes-websockets project and noticed it didn't work.

At the time, I debated moving calls to Firebase just so that I could work for free while I was on flights, but realized the ROI wasn't remotely there. Glad to finally have someone else acknowledge it happening, and give some insight as to why.
> Respectfully: if it was obvious, I wouldn't have come to the conclusion I did and written up what I wrote.

Sorry about that, I think I assumed some familiarity with moving data around/migrations, and moving 10% of a customers data around from a legacy service to new service wouldn't make much sense in that context.

> I bet it would be notably larger than you imagine it would be

I think being able to capture 10% of existing users is already a very large guess, realistically it would be closer to 1%.

But, without any numbers from Pivotal and actually trying to launch a cloned service, all we can do is guess :)
Because on the face of things, the Lebanese buyers were assumed to be Hezbollah. They sold pagers and handhelds without bombs, but when sold to Lebanese?

Vector math library codegen in Debug (Blender)
ts-blank-space is a fast type-stripping compiler
Very impressive work, but most of the work has been necessary because Intel 4004 was not really the first microprocessor, this was just BS propaganda used by Intel to push back by one year the date of the launch of the first microprocessor, to 1971.

The first true (civilian) microprocessor was Intel 8008, in 1972.

Intel 8008 was a monolithic implementation, i.e. in a single PMOS integrated circuit, of the processor of Datapoint 2200, therefore it deserves the name "microprocessor".

The processor of Datapoint 2200 had an ugly architecture, but there is no doubt that it was a general-purpose CPU and traces of its ISA remain present in the latest Intel and AMD CPUs.

On the other hand, the set of chips that included Intel 4004 was not intended for the implementation of a general-purpose computer, but it was intended just for the implementation of a classic desktop calculator, not even a programmable desktop calculator.

This is the reason for the many quirks of Intel 4004, e.g. the lack of instructions for the logic operations, and many others that have increased the amount of work required for implementing a MIPS emulator suitable for running Linux.

Even if Intel 4004 was intended for a restricted application, after Intel has offered to sell it to anyone, there have been many who have succeeded to use it in various creative ways for implementing microcontrollers for the automation of diverse industrial processes, saving some money or some space over a TTL implementation.

In the early days of the electronics industry it was very normal to find ways to use integrated circuits for purposes very different from those for which the circuits had been designed. Such applications do not make Intel 4004 a true microcontroller or microprocessor. Very soon many other companies, and later also Intel, have begun to produce true microcontrollers, designed for this purpose, either 4-bit or 8-bit MCUs, then Intel 4004 has no longer been used for new designs.

I don't know, most PayPal customers wouldn't know either. And the point is that these emails are designed to look legit and also scare you into taking action without thinking about it too hard. And this particular email bypasses a lot of the rules in general consciousness about phishing like "check for spelling mistakes, check the sender email, does it look official, does it mention you by name", all of those boxes are ticked. This is only possible because PayPal clearly aren't actively fighting against these kinds of attacks.

Respectfully, i am not sure that i agree with that. I think if it were allowed to slip into, say, public domain, then, yes, i agree.

HOWEVER, on a slight tanget from that point...If this company and its software have ever received any sort of taxpayer funds, then my opinion is that from the beginning, such software should have been open sourced. Publicly-paid software should be publicly available. Of course, said business has every right to earn profits from providing the service such as hosting said software for convenience for customers. But, every citizen who paid taxes has a right to see (and access!) all the code...well, that's my belief anyway. ;-)
