LinkedIn have an automated rater for applications. Any that their tool consider to not be a fit is automatically tagged "Not a fit" and color coded accordingly, making it very obvious. It's probably based on the location of the applicant Vs the location the job specifies and the skills on their LinkedIn profile.

My own experience when posting jobs was that 70%+ of applicants were rated "Not a fit" and that it was an accurate rating.

This means that when the ad poster goes in to look at the applicants they can discount a huge proportion from the start as the list is already triaged.

100s does not really mean 100s.

Absolutely. We need more such speech.

1) Offline connectivity — pretty cool to be able to debug technical problems while flying (or otherwise off grid) with a local LLM, and current 8B models are usually good enough for the first line of questions that you otherwise would have googled.

2) Privacy

3) Removing safety filters — there are some great “abliterated” models out there that have had their refusal behavior removed. Running these locally and never having your request refused due to corporate risk aversion is a very different experience to calling a safety-neutered API.

Depending on your use case some, all, or none of these will be relevant, but they are undeniable benefits that are very much within reach using a laptop and the current crop of models.
Here's another, more severe case, "Saudi Crown Prince Confirms Death Sentence for Tweets". And remember, one of the biggest X investors is a prominent Saudi.

https://www.hrw.org/news/2023/09/22/saudi-crown-prince-confi...

Musk's "commitment" to free speech is a joke.

Edit: This is a bit different of case - it's not X doing content moderation at behest of a government. One could claim Musk doesn't have control over what other countries do. But, he's constantly criticizing and calling-out politicians around the world. But, not a peep about Saudi Arabia. (as far as I know).

It's not "critical". If Whatsapp vanished tomorrow it would get replaced by the next one so fast it would make your head spin. Not saying I can guess which one it would be, but one would win and people would carrying on with their lives just fine.
AI genuinely replaces software engineers. If that's true, there's no reason to believe it wouldn't soon disrupt other engineering domains as well.

If that’s true, then…

How? Most engineering is physical and blueprint work which cannot be converted into embeddings and filled in the middle. Or if you’re assuming that something LLM/VLM/SD-like will appear for this domain, that’s a pretty wild guess. I even doubt that transformers are more suitable for that than now-classic boring ML. If you hope that the language will somehow “emerge itself” into building, schematics, industrial, etc behaviors, that’s also quite a guess.

Make sure you’re not coping, because transformers generalize over (fuzzy) painting and text, the only data we have in abundance. These are common attributes of programmers, writers and graphics artists and barely anyone else, and the latter two are already screwed. We don’t have readily accessible logs for abstract thoughts, professional conversations at work or inner monologues. Maybe in ten years China will realize it and start to collect it at scale.
A new proxy is a proxy filled with issues. It's nice that it's go, but in production I'd go with nginx or something else and replay traffic to kamal. There are enough weird behaviors out there (and bad actors) that I'd be worried about exploits etc.

Looks like they tried but India and Turkey passed laws. In Brazil they believe the judge's actions were not lawful.

It makes sense to me. I've relocated a few raccoons that ended up in cages meant for something much smaller. They get extremely irate and understandably so. I was lucky in that they were not rabid but I took a big chance moving them. One bent the cage open as I was carrying him. If he was rabid he would have attacked me. I get a lot of raccoons here as I am in a choke-point that joins wilderness to rural residential. If they can be easily run off I leave them alone. If they are aggressive I have to put them down as they are likely infected and will infect any humans or animals that accidentally corner them. They are significantly stronger than they appear and would eviscerate a child or someones pets if they are aggressive.
What I meant is that in general private companies have no requirements of making profit and I even have shown the SCOTUS stating so.
I strongly disagree. You should always keep the code as simple as possible and only add abstractions once you really need them.

Too many times I've found huge applications that it turns out be most scaffolding and fancy abstractions without any business logic.

My biggest achievement is to delete code.

1. I've successfully removed 97% of all code while adding new features.
2. I replaced 500 lines with 17 lines (suddently you could fit it on a screen and understand what it did)

I mentioned before that I don't agree with how Brazil is going about this situation if you believe Musk's telling of the events but it is also impossible to believe that Musk is some free speech warrior given how readily he complies with the demands of countries like Turkey and India so I'm still trying to understand what exactly is the straw that broke the camel's back for Musk. Was it that he just didn't like his representation being allegedly threatened with jail?
As someone with friends and coworkers who spent their last minutes last year on WhatsApp trying to communicate with family, this is a very bad idea.
I wonder how many will remain on Bluesky. I've heard of a few key differences between Bluesky and Twitter that could be a deal breaker for many.

1. No trending topics, although there is a recommendation algorithm, so trending topics should be possible in the future.

2. No private profiles. This seems important to many, but it's probably not doable in federated social media. Other privacy problems include your followers, whom you follow, your likes, etc., being public information.

3. No way to make someone that follows you unfollow you. I don't get it either, but it seems in other platforms blocking makes them unfollow you whereas in Bluesky it just stops your posts from appearing. To be honest I'm not really sure how this even works since there are no private posts and you could just access it without being logged in, but I guess the average user is just going to use the main instance anyway.

4. No way to bookmark posts yet. This should be easy to implement.

While using the web version, I found several usability problems, like being unable to right click hashtags and posts to open them in a new tab. Clicking on a post lets you reply without seeing existing replies, which seems like a bad idea, too. There are advanced search operators, but no interface to access them.

If you search for "how to do" anything in Bluesky you get the API documentation for the AT Protocol. The only user facing documentation at the moment seems to be a FAQ page.

Despite its influx of Brazilian users, parts of the interface are still missing translations, e.g. the "Discover" and "Following" tabs in the homepage weren't translated to Portuguese even though the sidebar was.

Personally, I think just the fact that Bluesky has a recommendation feed already makes it better than Mastodon for most people, but it's still in development. I haven't used the app, so maybe things are better there.
Name names.

Never forget.
If the Brazilian court had ordered a ban of far-left users, the reporting on this would have been very different.
"Rapid iteration on user control surfaces is good; rapid iteration on public APIs is bad."

I think rapid UI iteration is bad once a product has reached a certain maturity. I absolutely hate it when a tool I use often, suddenly changes its interface without any discernible benefit. I am fine with yearly changes but the constant churn is really annoying. MS Teams is a big offender here. They constantly change stuff but nothing gets better, just different. And a lot of UX guys seem to feel it's best to take away features that only a few percent of users are using.

Compared to the progress we made in 1990s and 2000s, it feels like most companies are just moving buttons around and making UI elements more difficult to distinguish but otherwise they are out of ideas for actually useful stuff.
I was wondering that also. Didn't they learn anything from elastic doing the same and backtracking?
I am not sure how passwords are relevant to the pointless chaining of two distinct commands, rather than invoking a straightforward "sudo -s".

People writing "sudo su" are simply imitating a common StackExchange idiom without knowing why.

"su" requires passwords unless invoked by root. "sudo" may be configured to permit/deny specific commands. So if you write that, then you're saying 'become root via the sudoers(5) config and then fork, exec, become root again via the setuid binary "su", in order to run an interactive shell.'

It's a poor habit to be promoting, because it assumes things about the configuration and suggests that "su" is equal to other particular "sudo" maintenance commands, when the point is simply to drop into a root shell, which is a facility provided directly by "sudo", if you'd only read the manual page and learn its options.

Nothing will stop you from invoking "sudo -s" without a password, without another fork/exec, without another suid utility carrying a significantly different authentication model.
Society can choose to pass on bowing to the God of insurance in this case :)
Is code more like poetry or more like a recipe? If the former, then yes we should be allowed the time and space to craft the highest syntactic art imaginable. But if it's the latter, it should just be quick, correct, readable, and extensible.

If it's art - how dare you ruin my masterpiece?

If it's business - we had a solution deployed for the customer in less than an hour.

If syntax (poetry) is your #1 take your time. If money is your #1 you wouldn't call it "crappy code" at all. Even code that is not as performant as it could be is only "crappy" if it's affecting the bottom line (which it often does). But so-called bad code that is yielding higher profits, hard to call crappy.

Efficiency isn't even on the list of goals for many of them, I think. If your business is essentially to sell electrical power on a cost plus basis, why would you want your customers to use less?

I got to take a tour of a major DC in 2003. Heavy, impressive security, multiple buildings, and rack after rack after rack with a CRT sitting on top, showing a burned in desktop or the 3d pipes screensaver.

My host informed me that something like 30% of their systems were >5 years old, having been the DC of the company that had been took over by the company that he was now working for. As far as anyone knew, there was no business use for them, but no one had the brave to start pulling plugs.

My favorite part of that story is: after we went through the security and saw all the access controls; we went round to the back door, unguarded, propped open all the time for airflow. I parked my pickup and we hauled out several carts of hardware my host was donating, filling the truck. Never saw security in that part of the visit.

You sound like the worst of twitter, here.
Current employees speaking out is something I’ve never seen before.
Well if they did not give away it for free in first place AWS could not have taken it. They are only themselves to blame for giving away free samples and then crying when in entirely morally justifiable way someone decides to sell their free product as service. Should have done that themselves.

And second thing is, often the pricing of these monetization turns is just exploitative.

> but it is also impossible to believe that Musk is some free speech warrior given how readily he complies with the demands of countries like Turkey and India

He didn't give up readily, those countries passed laws and even then Twitter sued the Indian government.

"India calls X a 'habitual non-compliant platform'"
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-66805347

People only think he gave up readily in India because of the all the echo chamber comments repeating misinformation to make Musk look bad.

> I'm still trying to understand what exactly is the straw that broke the camel's back for Musk. Was it that he just didn't like his representation being allegedly threatened with jail

He felt that the judge's secret orders weren't lawful in Brazil, unlike in other countries.
One is a hosting company using software under the terms that it was licensed. The other is the author(s) of software getting a following with very permissive licensing and then changing the deal after the software has been adopted.

The blowback is because of the deal being changed.
Okay, so, GPUs will go away to be replaced by AI, which... runs on GPUs? Even if the target application changes from games to AI, we still need widely parallel processors (aka GPUs) and serial processors (aka CPUs) if we want to keep growing performance.
I think Musk is just selective in the causes he finds himself wanting to be a free speech warrior for.

Free speech for me and mine, all others pay cash

You can not have a job (economic consequences aside). You can’t not be in school.

Have you tried thinking of his actions through a more than black and white perspective, from a military strategic perspective? E.g. Is it better for all Brazilians if there's a platform they are all already organized/organizing on to still have access to it, or none of them have access to it?
But at some point when your needs are stable you can recreate everything and save money.

Temporal also provides mechanisms to persist some state and query it. Is it possible to do with Inngest?
yes but still, a local model, a lightning in a bottle that is between GPT3.5 and GPT4 (closer to 4), yours forever, for about that price is pretty good deal today. probably won't be a good deal in a couple years but for the value, it is not that unsettling. When ChatGPT first launched 2 years ago we all wondered what it would take to have something close to that locally with no strings attached, and turns out it is "a couple years and about $10k" (all due to open weights provided by some companies, training such a model still costs millions) which is neat. It will never be more expensive.

That’s right I was referencing the meme. However the scale argument seems to apply to faang and those inspired or derived by them. “We do things at scale” can become an excuse to ignore individual voices, whether it’s users, customers, or external criticism.

Show HN: Grap – A self-hostable temporary email service
It's a simple, self-hostable system for managing temporary email addresses, designed specifically for developers and automation workflows.

I built this primarily for my own use to be able to run full integration tests for projects that rely on email confirmation etc., but I'd love to get feedback from the HN community. What features would make this more useful for your workflows?

Key features:

- REST API for generating addresses and retrieving emails

- Web interface for manual management

- Lightweight SMTP server

- Docker-ready for easy deployment

The entire backend is written in TypeScript and uses Fastify, Knex, and Objection.js. The frontend is intentionally minimal, using Liquid templates and vanilla JavaScript to keep things fast and simple.

The project is MIT licensed, so feel free to fork and modify as needed. There's also a live demo at https://grap.email if you want to try it out before deploying your own instance.

Musk claimed on the All In podcast, that he was merely trying to abide by the law, and that the situation that arose was that the government was requesting action that went against the laws of the same country. I don't know how true that is, but it sounds plausible. He also made it clear that the policy was not "free speech by US standards" but rather allowing speech up till what is permitted by every respective country. That sounded way more reasonable to me than what I have heard before on the issue.

Taking your beliefs as stated here at face value, I don't see how that would be relevant either way: you clearly live in a world where evil deeds are physically possible, where your god (for whatever reason, free will or otherwise) does not intervene to prevent it. Pollution just seems like another one of those things — a death by a thousand cuts, where (if you will excuse the mixed metaphor) you can't tell which straw broke the camel's back.

>While that's true for their ChatGPT SaaS, the API they provide doesn't impose as many restrictions.

There are same issues with GPT API,

1. non reproducible is there in the API

2. even after we ensure we do a moderation check on the input prompt, soemtimes GPT will produce "unsafe" output and accuse itself of "unsafe" stuff and we get an error but we pay for GPT "un-safeness" IMO if the GPT is producing unsafe stuff then I should not pay for it's problems.

3. dalle gives no seed so no reproducible, and no option to opt out on their GPT modifying the prompt , so images are sometimes absurdly enhanced with extreme amount of details or extreme diversity, so you need to fight against their GPT enhancing.

What extra option we have with the APIs that is useful ?
> I'm still trying to understand what exactly is the straw that broke the camel's back for Musk

Moraes finding Starlink and Twitter under common control, which they technically are, may have been it. The unspoken threat being sanctions on Tesla, Musk’s dominant source of liquidity and a levered position, both for sales and raw materials exports.

More than its direct effects, the contagion risks of that strategy could constrain Musk if e.g. the EU played hardball.
