This was the company that made all sorts of noise about how they couldn't release GPT-2 to the public because it was too dangerous[1]. While there are many very useful applications being developed, OpenAI's main deliverable appears to be hype that I suspect when it's all said and done they will fail to deliver on. I think the main thing they are doing quite successfully is cashing in on the hype before people figure it out.

"Still not sure with so many of the (esp right leaning) in the US claiming to be christian, can also accept this as a punishment."

You shall not kill!

What I don't understand. It is my impression that most of the US states that still have the death penalty, strongly oppose abortion. I find this a contradiction. And also these are the states that oppose abortion, at the same time are strictly against any kind of welfare "not our problem!".
Ask HN: Hyperlocal printing service? Hear me out
I dont own a printer and dont want to buy one so I usually go to fedex office on the occasions that I need to print. This got me thinking about whether my neighbors had printers, which led me to hyperlocal printing marketplace. Instead of driving 15 minutes to a print shop and waiting in line, what if I could just order from someone on my street or a local business that wants the occasional work? Some printers could even be mobile. Basically, DoorDash for print services. You can pick it up or have it delivered.

Would this interest any one?
Reminds me a lot of the aphorism "Poor people worry about income. Middle class people, about assets. Rich people, about control." If you have board control over an organization that's desired by a lot of people, you have an awful lot of leverage to mint assets where none existed before.
The language-hack of the "the" operator in Common Lisp, whereby `(the fixnum (+ 5 7))` signals that the result of (+ 5 7) should be an integer is so ... lispy.
This would be during formal testing, which is similar to what you might know as “acceptance testing”. The spacecraft doesn’t “enter safe mode” during development.

If you’re paying two billion $ for something you become very very interested in test design and test results.

Also, safe mode isn’t really the same as a BSOD. It’s a mode where the spacecraft decides something is wrong and disables a lot of functionality and focuses on pointing the solar panels at the sun and the antennas at the ground. It does not cease functioning - if that happens, you’ve probably lost your spacecraft. It is therefore VITALLY IMPORTANT that safe mode works, and a smart program manager tests the hell out of it.
I could not care less about the the privacy of the weirdos who will try to wear these in public. I care deeply about the further normalization of surveillance capitalism.

I try hard to be kind, but I will have very little patience for any individual who wears always-on cameras that infringe on my privacy. I don't use social media for a reason. Meta just wants to sell surveillance devices so they can collect more data, and will try to convince us it is for our benefit.
Besides a convoluted credit service, I don't know how you would convince people to knock on a stranger's door to deliver $0.03 worth of paper and ink.
What are people using to check token length of code bases? I'd like to point certain app folders to a local LLM, but no idea how that stuff is calculated? Seems like some strategic prompting (eg: this is a rails app, here is the folder structure with file names, and btw here are the actual files to parse) would be more efficient than just giving it the full app folder? No point giving it stuff from /lib and /vendor for the most part I reckon.
Uhm, I do a lot of git rebase -i HEAD~2 where I just squash the commit on the latest or sometimes I need to reorder and move the fix commits in specific commits in Pars that multiple commits, which I then need to push force. Is this for a similar use-case? I am not familiar with fixup or how it works.
I definitely think that's worth worrying about. Eye tracking too; it's shocking how much can be learned about a person from it.

Show HN: FastIndex, an open-source search engine indexation tool
There's a lot of paid search engine indexation tools out there and I wanted to create my own.

Been working as an engineer for over a decade now and my open-source contribution has always been something I wanted to do.

Thus I decided to create FastIndex, an open-source search engine indexation alternative to paid solutions such as TagParrot, URLMonitor, Omega Indexer and many more.

HN Rankings for OpenAI's Restructuring
I left pretty soon after a Google engineer decided the internal chat bot was sentient but before ChatGPT 3.5 came out. So I missed the entire period where Google was trying to catch up.

But it seemed to me before I left that they were struggling to productize the bot and keep it from saying things that damage the brand. That's definitely something OpenAI figured out first.

I got the feeling that maybe Microsoft's Tay experience cast a large shadow on Google's willingness to take its chat bot public.
As an ad professional - this is a thoughtful article.

I think paid social ads will be less affected by AI than search ads. After all, AI is unlikely to replace human social interactions. That's a good thing. Paid social ads have a much higher incrementality compared to search.

Search ads in comparison are often just the "Google tax".

In my personal life, I've replaced 80% of my previous searches with quick ChatGPT 4 prompts. It gives better answers, faster.
Belittling competitors is not a good competitive strategy, the community is smart and won't be fooled by it (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32626873). If you want to promote something under my post, that's fine, people will make their choices. But if you're going to unjustly discredit JSON For You by ignoring the facts, I find that unwelcome and offensive. I suggest we compete by improving our products, rather than by smearing each other or engaging in price wars :)

I agree is Tailwind is easiest to use with global styles, and make the components use Light DOM in that case. I'd use Shadow DOM only when I need components to be fully isolated (includng styling and node visibility).
I love leading commas and am leading the charge for change.

I apologize in advance and hope you are able to come to grips with how easy it is to read and understand at some point in the near future.
Wonder if this could be done with light as well? For example, an LED flashing at 60Hz, but duty cycle of 30%; vs an LED at 60Hz, but duty cycle of 70%.
I am on that path as well, considering how filthy rich they are, the greed is not just unreasonable it's a complete fuck you to the customer.

If it was just on the phone I wouldn't care as much (can get away with buying less often or second hand) but the reproduction of the models on the Macs is just inacceptable since everything is soldered.
I wouldn't mind paying a bit of premium on RAM/storage but it is just a big "fuck you", because we can, at the moment.

Considering how fast they are obsoleting older hardware (just because they can) it doesn't even make sense to pretend that you will recoup the cost over time (won't last twice as long as less expensive PC).

And macOS is aging poorly, feeling the effects of neglect and doubling down on fully closed strategy.

Apple doesn't have to care because they have new customers that don't care about any of that; it's mostly people that buy entry level hardware though, which is kind of hilarious when you think about their luxury strategy (mass market "luxury" is so dumb).

Now, to be honest I have still some hopes left for the upcoming M4 devices (sales have slowed to a stop, so they have the signal) but still I'm doubt the pricing will make sense.

It's just sad because Apple has more money than it knows what to do with productively, it's just a terribly managed company nowadays contrary to what the idiots who believe stock price is everything (imaginary value) like to think.

They were doing all that in the 1970s. There was a sense of panic about electronic eavesdropping around the Watergate period, where it wasn't just Nixon, but really every private eye knew some kid who knew how to make bugs with a few transistors. It got talked about in a lot of books from this time period such as

https://www.amazon.com/Great-Wall-Street-Scandal/dp/00701702...

which was a scandal with many dimensions including the author of that book getting busted for insider trading, there was an incident where the management of that company set up bugs in a room where auditors were working so they had some idea of what the auditors were looking at so they possibly trick them.

That web site has some articles where they talk about fabrication techniques the CIA was using for bugs and it seemed they weren't using ICs but rather trying to miniaturize discrete component designs as much they could just as IBM was doing for the digital electronics for the System 360.

I'd assume if you were doing it now you'd use some kind of pure digital scheme with an ADC, encryption and spread-spectrum modulation of some kind. I still have a sweet spot for things like sample-and-hold, PLLs, and such though.
That and a ton of their patents were invalidated in the process. It’s been more damaging to them in the long run.

This is super cool tech! I'm surprised how many people here knocking the glasses for being "too thick" when it's clearly this is a huge improvement on previous attempts at AR like the hololens. And to be honest it looks fairly comparable to some of the "hipster" glasses people willing choose to wear today...

I'd be interesting in knowing what the battery life of this thing is... I get that the compute is being done on the puck, but there seems to be almost no room for battery in those lenses... And even the puck looks small to be honest... Surely no more than a couple of hours of power, likely quite a bit less.

I also wonder what the latency is like between the puck and glasses... Latency is such an important aspect of creating a convincing AR experience and judging by the video the Verge posted it looks like latency is pretty bad. I thought the reason compute for AR/VR is typically done on device is because it's the quickest and most reliable way to do it.
It’s sad that the US government unnecessarily deprived a human being of their right to life.

I hope one day the people involved are prosecuted for this premeditated murder.

You can already print to a local FedEx Office and pick it up: https://www.office.fedex.com/default/print-and-go

I don't think there's enough demand for one-off home prints like this to make it worthwhile for anyone involved. A printer is like $50, or nearly free at the thrift store. Businesses have their own. People borrow friends'. The labor in getting someone to drive that stuff around is going to be way more than printing costs.

Do you have a source for this? I thought "staff with the prosecutors’ office had mishandled the weapon after the killing – touching it without gloves before the trial," which "made it impossible to determine if Williams’s fingerprints could have been on the knife earlier" [1].

Well I would never use a script like this at a real job outside of local testing.

What you'd want on stage is probably using opentelemetry, which I believe has auto-instrumentation for all network calls. Then you have the data forever and it's in a public, shared platform that is permissioned and everybody knows, and will still exist in 10 years.

I haven't used Ollama, but from what I've seen, it seems to operate at a different level of abstraction compared to `llm`. I use `llm` to access both remote and local models through its plugin ecosystem[1]. One of the plugins allows you to use Ollama-served local models. This means you can use the same CLI interface with Ollama[2], as well as with OpenAI, Gemini, Anthropic, llamafile, llamacpp, mlc, and others. I select different models for different purposes. Recently, I've switched my default from OpenAI to Anthropic quite seamlessly.

I attempted to respond with extending the knife-analogy, but it stops being useful for LLMs pretty quick since (A) the danger is pretty obvious to users and (B) the damage is immediate and detectable.

Instead it's more like lead poisoning. Nobody's saying that you need a permit to purchase and own lead, nor that you must surrender the family pewter or old fishing-sinkers. However we should be doing something when it's being marketed as a Miracle Ingredient via colorful paints and cosmetics and dusts and gases of cheap gasoline.
There may be a story, and I'm sure she worded the message carefully, but I don't see any reason to doubt she worded it herself. "Create the time and space to do my own exploration" is beautiful compared to the usual. To me means she is confident enough in her ability to do good in the world that the corporate identity she's now tethered to is insignificant by comparison.

It seems like you're feigning naiveté, here.

Misdirected attacks happen all the time in warfare, and tragically there's nothing in the slightest bit surprising about it. The circumstances around the Majdal Shams attack are still unclear, but it's highly unlikely that Hezbollah would deliberately target a soccer field in the middle of a Druze community in Israel-occupied territory. Most likely it was affected by EW or simply went off course.

So yes, "accidentally blew up a soccer field".
If it only lets you select one, that's strictly less powerful. What if I want some parts of it into one commit and another parts into another? The `hg absorb` works for this case.

Am I out of date? Does someone know something I don't?
Good idea. I've received a lot of feedback from the community with people hoping for some AI integration features. I am seriously considering this. Also, in terms of product positioning, if I do offer cloud storage, I don't intend to view JSON For You simply as a place to store files, but rather as a remote configuration management solution. Thank you once again, you're truly a deep thinker.
If anyone else is looking for the bigger models on ollama and wondering where they are, the Ollama blog post answered that for me. The are "coming soon" so they just aren't ready quite yet[1]. I was a little worried when I couldn't find them but sounds like we just need to be patient.

Because any subsequent clauses usually start with AND, so if you're just checking data or validating it outside of production, it makes sense since you can comment to see lines you aren't checking out.

It also depends on how you write SQL, but not by much.

It's been a few years and I can't recall. Probably renting solar panels? That was a popular one for a while. Not that it matters, he could have been offering me free money. What matters is he didn't respect my right to say no. That's an extreme accusation to lob just to prevent the conversation from ending.

To qualify my previous comment, it's not that saying no is seen as rude, it's that salesmen are beyond rude if you try to say no. I have to hide in my home, pretend I'm renting/house sitting, etc because it's less hassle than opening the door and saying no.

0.75kWh per charge even at Electrify America prices ($0.64/kWh) is not enough for a single transaction. Maybe they will force you to preload the account and then deduct from your balance.

I've been writing high-scale production code in one language or another for 20 years. But I when I found Rust in 2016 I knew that this was the one. I was going to double-down on this. I got Klabnik and Carol's book literally the same day. Still have my dead-tree copy.

Lots of TypeScript features generate code: namespace, async/await, yield, decorators, object spread, varargs, etc.*

`const enums` (beyond enums) are especially odd. They rely on type information to emit code.

* Subsequent to their release in TypeScript, EcmaScript versions now support some of these.
> A future light cone is a spherical (Lorentz transformations count? idk kinda breaks the analogy) volume of space*

No, it isn't. It's a 4-dimensional region of spacetime bounded by a null cone.

> Care to explain how?

What you think you know about all this is so far off base that I'm not sure where to start. Pretty much everything you've said has been wrong.

> Once you cross the event horizon, your time will end in that same point, regardless of your movement in space.

Wrong. The singularity is not a point. It's a spacelike line. Different people that fall through the event horizon separately will not meet each other at the singularity. In fact they will not even be able to see each other reach the singularity.

> This projection would be an ever-narrowing cone.

Wrong.

> I am wondering where my mental model is imprecise

It's not just "imprecise", it's wrong, pretty much everywhere. I would strongly suggest taking the time to look at some spacetime diagrams--the best ones would be a diagram in Kruskal coordinates or a Penrose diagram.

fixup works with rebase if you add the -a flag for autosquash. try it and you’ll see the commits already reordered for you in the interactive menu.

also you can write HEAD~2 as @^^ if you want to save a couple keystrokes!
As much as I hate writing "getter" functions for referencing global variables, I would when I knew I didn't have the right address yet. Write them first to error out loudly, then when you have the actual addresses replace the error out code.

No, a prosecutor at no point argued that this guy was not guilty. Nobody argued that, except dishonest activists who lied to you. All prosecutor offered was commuting the death penalty to life without parole.

In addition, I don’t see how a random prosecutor’s opinion is relevant. If this was the original prosecutor who prosecuted the case, then it would have some evidentiary value. In this case, this is just some guy with zero connection to the original case. Why should we care what he believes, over opinion of hundreds of prosecutors in this country who are happy that the justice has finally been served?

It's funny that you are making this argument due to this execution (which I'm against) while arguing for voting for a party that currently is in power and actively supports, almost unconditionally so, a state that is committing a genocide that killed tens of thousands in Gaza. The most ironic part is your last argument: "None of this affects me so I don't bother voting", which is funnily enough better than voting for a party that actually enables genocide because said genocide does not affect you. The other funny thing is that I know that the usual counter to that from the Democrats is to claim that "both sides are bad, Trump would've done the same!". Which is again, extremely ironic.

(And I'm not here to argue if it's a genocide or not. Let's say it's not. It's still an administration that de facto unconditionally supports and arms a war that has killed 50 000 civilians).
