Mostly consult as a data engineer not ML ops but I’m interested in some aspects of this. We have 10 years of parquet files from 300+ different kafka topic and we’re currently migrating to apache iceberg. We’ll back fill on a need only basis and it would be nice to track that with git. Would this be a good fit for that?

Another potential aspect would be tracking schema evolution in a nicer way than we currently do.

thx in advance, huge fan of anything-as-code and think it’s a great fit for data (20+ years in this area).

The conception here is that one's layered abstractions is basically an informal mathematics... which is formally structured... which is a formal grammar. It's your internal language, using internal symbols instead of English names.

Remember in CS theory, a language is just a set of strings. If you think in pictures that is STILL a language if your pictures are structured.

So I'm really handwaving the above just to suggest that it all depends on the assumptions that each expert is making in elucidating this debate which has a long history.
> but as soon as you need to join non-linearly

At least in our use case, even with some very gnarly 20+ line Cypher queries, it never got to the point where it felt like SQL and certainly, those same queries would be even gnarlier as nested sub-selects, CTEs, or recursive selects, IMO.

Perhaps a characteristic of our model (a taxonomy of Region, Country, Sponsor, Program, Trial, Site, Staff for global clinical trials and documents required by Region/Country/Program/Trial).

That’s not even a “well, technically…”. My chemistry education stopped at high school 40 years ago, and even I remember the difference. It’s like confusing a bicycle with a car.

For me, writing temporary output to a gitignored tmp directory has been trivial. And I do exploratory coding in a separate branch. Just because it’s part of the repo doesn’t mean it needs to get pushed.
I support archival of films, books, and music, but those items need to be write-only until copyright expires. The purpose of the Internet Archive is to achieve a wide-reaching, comprehensive archival, not provide easy and free read access to commercial works.

Website caches can be handled differently, but bulk collection of commercial works can't have this same public access treatment. It's crazy to think this wouldn't be a huge liability.

Battling for copyright changes is valiant, but orthogonal. And the IA by trying to do both puts its main charter--archival--at risk.

The IA should let some other entity fight for copyright changes.

I say this as an IA proponent and donor.
> That is still incorrect. Once the handshake completes the browser absolutely doesn’t care about HTTP with regard to message processing over WebSockets.

I never made any claim to the contrary.

> Therefore just achieve the handshake by any means and WebSockets will work correctly in the browser.

At which point you're parsing a decent chunk of HTTP.

> I can say that, because I have my own working code that proves it

Writing code doesn't prove anything; code can have bugs. According to the standard portion I quoted, your code is wrong. A conforming request isn't required to match.

> I have written perf tools to analyze it with numbers. One of my biggest learnings about software is to always conduct your own performance measurements because developers tend to be universally wrong about performance assumptions and when they are wrong they are frequently wrong by multiple orders of magnitude.

Performance has absolutely nothing to do with this.

Even if such an implementation appears to work today in browsers, this makes situations with a still-conforming UA damn near impossible to debug, and there's no guarantees made on header ordering, casing, etc. that would mean it would continue to work. Worse, non-conformant implementations like this are the sort of thing that result in ossification.

> Surely the logical pronunciation is the way you'd pronounce it in library, so a long 'ai' rather than any kind of 'i'?

Yep, that's what I meant to say with:

> … never noticed until I heard someone else say it with a long 'i' that that was obviously the logical pronunciation.

But maybe the sentence structure was too tortured for it to be clear what I was saying.

> Though I personally always use the short 'i'. I was going to justify that by saying it's the same as /usr/bin, but that's also short for binaries, so should also be an 'ai'.

Oh, shoot, even after I noticed the logical pronunciation of "lib" (long 'i') it never occurred to me that the same applied to "bin". I guess I just can't say any paths out loud any more.
Two beams of light of equal intensity and different frequency contain equal energy not differing amounts of energy.

The actual difference in frequency is the composition of that energy.

If of course you compare a dimmer beam of light with a brighter one the dimmer one will have less energy.

So no less energy is due to lower intensity light, not due to different frequency. You can pretty trivially have 5 flashlights each with a different color of light and all with the same energy.

Two people each have a chestnut on a string. You smack them against each other repeatedly and whoever's breaks loses.
Humans have a massive capacity to vary energy use. Highly trained endurance athletes like professional road cyclists and triathletes can average 3x or more the typical daily energy expenditure of a non-athlete on a long term basis. The idea that psychological stress can overwhelm the body's ability to produce energy does not seem credible to me.
There never will be an adequate industry-wide certification. There is no universal “good enough” or “when to stop” for security. What constitutes “good enough” is entirely dependent on what you are protecting and who you are protecting it from, which changes from system to system and changes from day to day.

The budget that it takes to protect against a script kiddy is a tiny fraction of the budget it takes to protect from a professional hacker group, which is a fraction of what it takes to protect from nation state-funded trolls. You can correctly decide that your security is “good enough” one day, but all it takes is a single random news story or internet comment to put a target on your back from someone more powerful, and suddenly that “good enough” isn’t good enough anymore.

The Internet Archive might have been making the correct decision all this time to invest in things that further its mission rather than burning extra money on security, and it seems their security for a long time was “good enough”… until it wasn’t.

> Understanding the context of the time Verne lived in is necessary to get where his stories come from.

Certainly but that’s kind of implied by merely talking about Verne. Anyway, the article leans more heavily towards the overall Verne outlook towards colonialism than his simple choice of character thankfully.

I don’t think the analysis is particularly compelling or interesting - it’s the usual continental philosophy inspired rehash you expect for any modern literature paper, a discipline which has apparently become entirely incapable of producing any novel idea - but well I guess it’s nice it exists even if reading it feels like looking at a paint by number piece of art.

So they had "better understanding" of the problem as the other user put it, but their software was still flawed and needed fixing. That's my point. This happened two weeks ago btw: https://www.msn.com/en-in/autos/news/waymo-self-driving-car-...

I don't mean Waymo is bad or unsafe, it's pretty cool. My point is about true automation needing data and intelligence. A lot more data than we currently have, because the problem is in the "edge" cases, the kind of situation the software has never encountered. Waymo is in the lead for now but they have fewer cars on the road, which means less data.

Do AI detectors work? Students face false cheating accusations
Thank you,I stand corrected, should have said "industrialised whaling".
Better is good. You can keep your standards up after things get better.
No. We poured similarly large amounts of resources into hundreds of companies in the dotcom boom, crypto, and so on.

This is a phase, just like many others, and will pass.

AI and LLMs will stick around and be important. The hype? That will die in favor of something else.
The neat thing about Neo4j is that the [r] isn't a join, it is an actual relationship stored on disk.
Thanks but this code doesn't work and I am unable to create an account.
There is only so much that an approach like O1 can do, but anyways in terms of AI boom/bust the relevant question is whether this is a viable product. All sorts of consumer products could be improved by making them a lot more expensive, but there are cost/benefit limits to everything.

GPT-5 and Claude-4 will be interesting, assuming these are both pure transformer models (not COT), as they will be a measure how much benefit remains to be had from training set scaling. I'd expect gains will be more against narrow benchmarks, than in the overall feel of intelligence (LLM arena score?) one gets from the model.
For me, it's the other way around. I don't feel like there's anything special about "what it's like" to experience a certain mental state that cannot be explained physically/algorithmically. It feels like the concept of qualia is a last-ditch attempt by humans to make themselves feel special.

How do users use the API?
Fascinating! This is why I stick with nice, clean structural linguistics, this applied stuff gets sticky. I just confirmed on Youtube that the (some?) British people do indeed pronounce "Aesthetic" as "ah-stet-ic" not "ee-stet-ic", and upon diving a bit, it seems that the rule is "don't ask for a rule, you fool! It's 'e' now except for when it isn't." Thanks for the interesting tidbit!

The letter æ was used in Old English to represent the vowel that's pronounced in Modern English ash, fan, happy, and last: /æ/. Mostly we now spell that vowel with the letter a, because of the Great Vowel Shift.
When æ appears in writing Modern English, it's meant to be a typographic variant of ae, and is pronounced the same as that sequence of vowel letters would be. So Encyclopaedia or Encyclopædia, no difference.

That’s not true. That’s just what you see.

One thing thats a little weird with the constant tesla framing of fsd being better than the average driver, is this assumption that a tesla owner might be an average driver. The “average” driver includes people who total their cars, who kill pedestrians, who drive drunk, who go 40 over. Meanwhile I’ve never been in an accident. For me and probably for many other drivers, their own individual average performance is much better than the average of all drivers. And given that its a possibility that relying on fsd is much worse for you than not in terms of rate of risk.
And yet you'll blame Android when some app steals a lot of data just like it always happens on this site.
So perhaps the free market doesn’t really exist. Only various sized barriers to entry
Any idea how many accidents and how many fatalities? And how that compares to human drivers?

That debt represents a trade Japanese people made: they get to take away 100B of US production to enjoy their old age. In trade they gave the US government something. Oil. Toyotas. Whatever.
The US government helpfully made that trade, promising US babies would, once grown up, deliver on that 100B of, say, labour.
The real problem is that neither the US government nor (now grown up) US babies intend to hold up their end of the bargain.
And vice-versa.
Hard agree. It's an archaic word, it seems a shame not to revel in that fact whenever you use it! I've been using "automata" a lot recently, and that's another one that is just more fun the unusual way. Also it helps that it's clear either way -- no one will be confused upon hearing "daymon" even if they're not used to it, unlike "etsee", "user-slash-libe", "user-slash-bine". Or, god forbid, "oo-zir slash"...

OG study that found a roughly same number of heartbeats was only concerned with averages - https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/9316546/ . Interestingly humans are outliers with 2-3x the expected number of heartbeats. The way the data was presented always gave me a strong "everything looks linear when plotted on a log scale with big marker" vibe... however it could be totally possible that there is some correlation there.

Maybe evolutionary, there is optimal amount of time for organisms to survive relative to their size. Organism size, in turn, correlates with heart size and heart size correlates with how fast it beats. Probably totally missing the mark, but if it was true, it would be interesting to look into why there are outliers.

Anywho, I find it humorous to think about a battery theory car analogy - "every car has a preset number of miles and maintenance would decrease usable lifespan of the car because you need to drive to the mechanic".

I find this response (and the class of responses like it) really frustrating, because it uses a (likely feigned) misunderstanding of the scope of the question to attempt to sidestep the real question. My question for the CTO would be, roughly:

You've now answered "Do your lawyers think you can get away with this?". But the questions you're not answering directly, which I think underlie the 'concerns' you're appreciating our sharing, are things like...

- Does the Bitwarden team see no ethical problems with making proprietary a project which many supported and contributed to explicitly because it was open source?

- Given that password management is explicitly a high-trust enterprise, how does your organization intend to navigate the rupture of trust, and subsequent forks and waves of departure, caused by an open-to-proprietary rugpull?

- Is there something that the community could do together which would help your company navigate through the dire situation you must be in to be considering something like this, without resorting to proprietarization?

I know it's his job as CTO right now to be feigning concern, particularly in forums where you can't close the conversation, but the current approach is basically confirming the worst fears ("They believe they can legally do it, and see no problem with their actions"), and that seems like exactly the wrong vibe for a company whose bottom line depends on users trusting the code and the people updating it.
It’s impolite but the hobby is dominated by older men who sit on their ratios talking about their radios. Why would young people choose that as an interest when there are so many new STEM type things to do (programming, 3D printing, etc)
SSO has various levels. You can do a "Login/Signup with Google" using any of the popular frameworks in a day or so. On the other hand, if you need to do full Enterprise level SSO (SAML, Audits, SCIM etc etc), you have more work to do.

Look at it this way. If your product solves a real problem for your potential customer, they wouldn't care about how to signup for it. Not until they tell you that SSO is a must. Until then, don't sweat it and keep going.

Currently, sure. I was more thinking about it as a possible Git successor.
> I have little interest in the ycombinator legacy of hustle culture, growth hacking, get-millions-for-glorified-todo-app, etc. As far as I can tell it is effectively the underlying reason for why crypto and AI get hyped up to the point where we can't have reasonable discussions about them in forums.

Ohh, well... I'm guilty of drinking that kool-aid, unfortunately and was a boot-strapping fintech founder with the battle scars to show--those scars appear in this discussion thus far by the way.

But I get it, I'm trying to be amicable about this as much as I can, especially fbecause I know no one can deny us anymore in the BTC side at this point, and in the AI side... well, money-hype boom and AI-doomer pr0n cycles aside we are actually building amazing amounts of compute that hopefully can yield amazing results, something like Starship recovery system levels of advancement in many other Industries/Sectors one day, probably very far off in the future but that's the start, right?

Every forest starts with a sappling kind of a thing, and these two technologies emerged from a time when I was in my formidable development period so I saw them as something more than just the marketing side--AI is marketing, ML is really just stats with code to back it up after all. Bitcoin is just a FOSS network using token based cryptographic key encryption.

What does it mean to increase the speed of causality? This seems like asserting that we can add as many tick marks to the axis as we like, since the only universal unit of measurement is a velocity's percentage of C.

If we imagine something going faster than the speed of causality, we're simply misconcieving the properties of space.

This isn't a mutex, but the distributed equivalent of one. The storage service is the one who invalidates the lock on their side. The client won't detect its own issues without additional guarantees not given (supposedly) by Redlock.
