What if SWEs get 50% more efficient and they fire half?

You know what happened last time we got 50% more efficient? It was when github and npm arrived. LLM are saving time and making us more efficient, but that's peanuts compared to the ability to just “download a lib that does X” instead of coding this shit on your own. And you know what happened after that? SWE position skyrocketed.

The context is that Google has a new "Site reputation abuse" policy that some argue isn't applied fairly between small sites and massive media sites. The policy states:

"Site reputation abuse is when third-party pages are published with little or no first-party oversight or involvement, where the purpose is to manipulate search rankings by taking advantage of the first-party site's ranking signals. Such third-party pages include sponsored, advertising, partner, or other third-party pages that are typically independent of a host site's main purpose or produced without close oversight or involvement of the host site."

That's why it's all hush-hush within the industry.

Absolutely.

My point is that I don't think AI can meaningfully output code that would be useful beyond that, because that code is not available in its training data.

Whenever I see people going on about how AI made then super productive, the only thing I ask myself is "My brother in Christ, what the fuck are you even coding?"
I am (very) biased but Couchbase has a pretty solid Mobile offering for native apps. I have worked on the Sync Gateway component responsible for replication for the last six years.

Sync Gateway still maintains a CouchDB-compatible REST API, and PouchDB _mostly_ works thanks to that, but there are some corner cases and features that PouchDB does not support so YMMV with it. Our native app libraries have used a more performant websocket-based replication protocol for many, many years now, and I'd really love to have the time investigating a PouchDB adapter using this WS protocol instead.
Yeah, the aires are great. I only used the Tesla superchargers in the aires as they were cheaper than the others, and my car would automatically find them. I had no problems at all.
The EU uses “anticompetitive” concern as marketing for protectionism.

If not, then Spotify would be a deemed a gatekeeper under the DMA. Instead Spotify met with the commission more than 65 times during the development of the DMA. Plus has the lowest pay out rates to artists of the leading music services, the fewest and slowest developing feature profile, the largest targeted consumer ad tracking network, and have progressively raised prices in recent months.

So no, the EU isn’t whatever you think it is.
I would change the emission so as to deter speculation and instead make it fair across generations: fix the block reward. I would make it as simple as possible so as to better stand the test of time.

It sounds like the trouble is that people are putting a lot of effort into trying to come up with a detailed lie that will flatter the professor's expectations, when (as I read the OP) the professor has no expectations and actually wants the simple truth. So everybody loses.

Maybe teachers need to start putting a "there are no wrong answers" disclaimer on these things.

> Finding it on Google is an indictment of the quality. Back in the day, something like Wikipedia was what people dreamed the Internet would be.

Well there is good news: Wikipedia is still around and it's as good as ever.

I share your sentiments about Google results. I've thought before about setting myself up a little terminal which denies access to everything on the web besides Wikipedia and .edu. That's where most of the good stuff online is. (ok, maybe Atlas Obscura and Sheldon Brown's bicycle page are allowed too)

> What do you call the state that "indie" open source maintainers are in right now? Lack of business mindset? Skill issue?

If I had to call it something, I guess it would be something along the lines of "Not realizing the control they have over their projects".

If you're writing FOSS not to earn money or build a business, and AWS employees approaches you asking for features, you as a maintainer has the power and control to say "Nope", and no one would bat an eye, because that's the contract they implicitly signed by using your software in the first place.

> Which of the following is more FOSS

Neither, as neither are actually related to FOSS at all.

The first is a process you can apply in order to remain sane if there is pressure to implement features you don't care about and don't want to implement.

The second is something you can do on top of FOSS if you want, or not. Choosing one over the other isn't more/less FOSS.

> Why do you refuse to promote the second one?

I don't refuse that, I promote plenty of communities around FOSS projects, and probably wouldn't had a career in software at all if it wasn't for FOSS, and most of my time daily is spent doing FOSS.

> How does it go against FOSS?

It doesn't go against, but people need to appreciate there is a difference between "Building a community" and "Publishing FOSS". One does not mean the other is required, either way.

Show HN: AI Generated Podcast
OP here. I am explicitly NOT blindly trusting the output of the AI. I am treating it as a suspicious set of code written by an inexperienced developer. Doing full code review on it.
The title of the post is debatable, as code is only written for humans. Computers don't need "code", and especially not high level code. They're happy with machine instructions. We write code because machine instructions are much too hard for us to write, and even harder to read.

We should not think of code as a way to interact with computers. Code is a way for us humans to formalize our thoughts so that they become so unambiguous that (even) a machine can follow them.
Making these warning into errors applies to the code you're writing. That's great: you're code won't dereference nulls for the most part. However, your code nearly always relies on dependencies. Those dependencies can still dereference nulls, and you can still encounter exceptions.

Can't proof-of-work be used as a leader election algorithm? If the proof is hard enough to generate then one node should be able to generate one and broadcast it before the other nodes can, then that node becomes the leader.

Raft protocol is that partial/asymmetric network partitions
can cause a loss of liveness [27, 32]. For instance, if a leader
can no longer make progress because it cannot receive messages from the other nodes, it continues to send AE
heartbeats to followers, preventing them from timing out
and from electing a new leader who can make progress.

(Howard, Abram et al)

Me: note this can also occur if there isn't a complete outage, if the latency back to the shit leader is different from the latency out of the shit leader.

> nobody ships consensus implementations exactly in line with the original paper. There are dozens or hundreds of papers on variations

As the paper above explains once you add extensions you might have broken the correctness proofs in raft. More to the original point, you're now in a state where it's no longer "simple"... I would go so far as to say if you have to consider the extensions, which are distributed over several papers and sometimes not even papers at all, you're in "deceptively simple" land.

As a pedagogical tool, raft is valuable because it can be a launching ground for conversations like these... But maybe we shouldn't use it in prod when there are better, straightforward options? I get the feeling that being hard sold as simple nerdsniped devs into writing it and someone r/very smart put it into prod and with social proof more people did and now here we are
Certainly it's true that kids can get a lot of joy out of something that to an adult seems really small or boring. But the flip side is kids can get totally emotionally distraught or enraged over tiny things.

Are these two sides of the same coin, and come from having just a smaller world, where small things can feel very big to a developing brain? Or as an adult with a fully-formed brain and access to the larger world, can we separate them and find that kind of unrestrained joy in the small stuff without also being swept away by small disappointments?

To try to explain were I come from in this discussion:

I live in one of the Nordic countries in the suburbs.

From what I know two of my immediate neighbors have firearms. I suspect there are a lot more nearby because gun ownership is very common and most people don't talk about it - I only know they have guns because they sometimes go hunting.)

Growing up I knew about three houses with complete, working assault rifles and emergency depots of ammo. (This was completely normal until a spectacular robbery were the robbers used stolen assault rifles early in the 2000s.)

Switzerland and Austria I understand is the same.

All three known as very peaceful countries.

From what I read most of the absolute worst crimes against humanity has happened by the government against the citizens, not by citizens against citizens.

I am aware of the risks of pervasive weapons ownership but I think of it as an insurance policy against much much worse problems.

So I feel quite confident that there is a huge difference between having access to violence and using violence.
So wordpress.org is owned entirely by Matt Mullenweg? The vast majority and default location of the whole plugin and theme distribution infrastructure is owned by one person? Perhaps you could point me to some page on wordpress.org that clarifies the ownership situation.

The Planetary Boundaries framework is so bad, I don’t understand why it’s so popular. Most of the "boundaries" are directly correlated. Most of them are fairly arbitrary.

It’s such an awful tool to discuss the actual very serious issue it underlines. I wish it would just disappear.

Just to be clear, there is nothing magical about most of these boundaries. The situation is not in any way suddenly worse today than yesterday. Some of the axis actually showcases issue which would be a problem at any level. Others are debatable. Thresholds are overall a bad way to think about dynamic systems.
If the person blowing them up takes out the entire city block that happens to include my family, then the person blowing them up is also my enemy. Your family dies as collateral damage and your reaction is "enh, they did what was necessary"? What if your wedding is blown up by drone strike because of some analyst's mistake, or choice to err on the side of "probably terrorist"?

Guessing that is "disposable" income. Sad when you think of people doing the same thing for whom their income is not disposable.
Someone in the research offices at IBM had a bumper sticker that said “the lottery, a tax on people that don’t understand math”

Also the local conscience store I frequented at one job in newton, the owner put up a sign saying “people here have won $500,000 in the lottery last year”. I noted that seemed like a lot, she looked at me and said, I know what they spend, it’s not a lot, then proceeded to go on a little talk about gambling being bad. When another customer came in that ended. I bought my snack and moved on.

That said, I’ll loose 100$ every couple years gambling in person. I do enjoy it as entertainment. I can’t see how it’s enjoyable online though..

When you win something, it’s a little thrill. I can see how it can overwhelm you.

Also people only tell stories of “winning”. It rare to hear the loosing stories.

The attack on the Pentagon was illegal because it happened without an act of war and was unprovoked. This is an organization that fires 25 missiles on civilians every day. It's enabled by all of its people, also the desk clerks who enable this. If you're working for a terrorist organization that fires on civilians and killed hundreds of Americans then you should expect some payback.
Really stretching the definition of "competitor" here.
> The moment you start dictating that the state owns your body and what you can do with it,

No one said that, and it's a very extreme interpretation of the comment you're replying to

> you have started down the path of authoritarianism

That's an example of the fallacy of infinite progression - that a societal trend will continue forever once started

In a complex system like a society, it's perfectly possible for a trend for e.g. regulation of the personal sphere to give rise to countervailing forces that end up in a steady state

There are plenty of societies e.g. the Nordic states, that have much higher regulation than the USA, yet have remained stable for decades and show no sign of descending into authoritarianism
> - The reuters article says "Issue was disclosed voluntarily to the regulator." but the actual source [1] announces a breach of GDPR Article 33(1), for failing to notify.

GDPR mandates the regulator be informed within 72 hours of the breach being discovered.

The official link you provided confirms that Meta informed the regulator voluntarily, in March of 2019. That page also includes a link to Facebook's press release, which says they discovered the issue in January. That's a time lag of around two months, which is around two months longer than the law permits. So yes, failure to follow the law mandating notification.

All things considered this is a small fine. Three orders of magnitude smaller than their usual GDPR fines.
