It's funny to read this. The reality is the opposite - Palantir pushes the custoner all day to go with actual operational usecases (i.e. CRUD, not R) and oftentimes some highlevel exec says no, I just want my reports.

Most companies like the mentioned Airbus though do nowadays get convinced to do more impactful things, and they do reap the rewards.

It doesn't help that the product has evolved ridiculously over the years. Just in these comments there's people who e.g. worked there in 2016. Productwise they might have well have been at an entirely different company, unless they were on the gov side of things.
Color was present in cave paintings.
This was certainly the case in most of Britain. Scotland has a separate education system from England and has today and historically offered different high school level qualifications ("Highers" etc).
My understanding is that e-ink with higher than 300 dpi is very difficult to produce which means it is rather expensive and doesn't look that much better to most people. Additionally, people think of an e-reader as a sub-$200 device so the market for a premium high DPI e-reader is just rather small. People are already complaining about the price of the Kindle Colorsoft, think what they would say if amazon put out a Kindle high DPI and it was in the $400-$500 range.
Not kill 1200 people, including 815 civilians, and take an addition 251 hostage.

But I think it's really important to be clear about who "we" is here. Last I checked, a majority of Gazans are not old enough ever to have voted in an election (the last one was held almost 20 years ago). If you mean "Hamas", and you stipulate that Hamas is in any way operating in the best interests of living Gazans in the present, it's easy to give a clear answer to that question. If you mean Gazan civilians, the true victims of Hamas, it's much more complicated.
For one, Mistral's models seem less censored and less rambly than the Llama models.
I think OP must have grown up in a pretty affluent neighbourhood. (How many schools have programmes with epidemiological institutes?) If I had done TY in the school I went to with the others in my cohort that did, my experience would have likely been much closer to theirs than to OP's: rarely attending school, drinking, smoking weed, and in some cases not returning back to school at all to finish the leaving cert.

I was much happier getting out of school as soon as I possibly could like yourself.
I suspect that that stuff is far more contextually important than it might seem at first, despite it being noted as designated only for the most important rituals.

It's ever so hard to try and get inside the minds of people from long ago. I think it is fair to assume that we think in a compatible way with these people and if we can glean enough clues we can reasonably draw conclusions.

It might be informative to look for clues as to what the people who had to deploy this stuff actually thought about it. The amazing carvings, catacombs and so on tell a lot about the Maya people and it seems that they are well interpreted but I don't think that this red poison is particularly well interpreted. I think there is a lot more to be learned.

The archaeology there is absolutely mind blowing. Thank you to everyone involved. Your work is phenomenal.
What sources do suggest as superior?
Well it would be one thing if the editor of the journal asked for the grad student to be the reviewer but they asked the PI. Seems a little disingenuous for the PI to pass off that effort as their own. Plus it no doubt takes time away from the grad students other responsibilities.
Chinese apps don't need encryption but pretends to, the government had direct access to all clear-text data. If you can't comply your business would be fucked one way or another.

Security researchers need to stop beating the dead horse. The encryption mechanism is mostly used for compliance or certification. In fact many corp-intranet middleboxes can decrypt wechat communications, it's not a bug, it's a feature.

IRL people just treat wechat as somekind of Discord with payment options. If you say something slightly wrong your account would instantly get into trouble. Just assume your wechat chat records are public one way or another.
...and the ones for later versions are easily found on GitHub too --- GitHub, which is now owned by Microsoft.

On the one hand, great, but on the other, that's how much (little) they care about Windows as a source of revenue.
Whenever I was in meetings at MS with people who were passing on information directly from the man, they would always refer to him as Bill. I never heard his last name mentioned once. "Bill told us he spent $400m on this. Bill wants his money back."

If you are also called Bill at Microsoft, this might have been confusing.
Exactly, it is a central bank.
How do you legitimately buy books on it?
Hi everyone,

I built customFilter, a browser-based image editor, to explore how various filter kernels convolve with images to produce different results. One key feature is the stack system, where you can load and access multiple images via variables (i1, i2, i3… iN). From there, you can apply custom blend operations like:

i1 < 0.5 ? i2 : i3

meaning if a pixel in image1 is below 0.5 (pixel value is normalized), it uses the pixel from image2, otherwise image3. It’s fully open-source, and I’d love to hear your thoughts.
> In the case of Gaza, Israel and Hamas were in a truce, until Hamas unilaterally broke that truce on October 7, 2023.

This is one of the things that keep getting repeated which I've found no source for. "There was a ceasefire on October 6"

I'm aware of a 1-month ceasefire in 2014, which I believe was respected by both parties.

There was a 6-month ceasefire in 2008 which was broken by Israel shortly before its completion: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2008_Israel%E2%80%93Hamas_ceas...

Show me a source for a ceasefire/truce that was in effect on October 6 2023?
If amazon wasn’t tracking every single swipe you did across their devices it’d be a no brainer.

Noted. I was thinking of those filtering tags in the top bar as well.
Nations do not declare wars anymore, because wars are illegal since WW2. Quoting Wikipedia:

> Since 1945, developments in international law such as the United Nations Charter, which prohibits both the threat and the use of force in international conflicts, have made declarations of war largely obsolete in international relations

So since then, wars are now called "counter-terrorist operations", "peace enforcement operations", "special military operations" — you name it.

Nobody "declares war" anymore. See, for a defensive war (when a nation is being attacked) there is no legal need to declare it in the first place — and this is why Ukraine does not "declare war on Russia", and this is why Israel does not declare war against Hezbollah (and Hezbollah is not even a state to begin with) — it is a defensive war from the legal standpoint.

You declare an offensive war. And this is illegal. Once you do it, there will be legal repercussions, like troubles with purchasing weapons from other countries (as they often have laws prohibiting from selling weapons to countries at war). So why would anybody do it? It would be silly.
That’s not an apology if that’s what you intended. Bricks are also inordinately more expensive. But you generally see adobe in dry climates. Again, engineering tradeoffs.
Noted will add a simple rss feed asap.
Right, but assuming constant acceleration, there's an enormous difference between accelerating all the way to the target and only accelerating halfway to the target, and then decelerating the rest of the way.
Maybe the N secretly stands for NFT.. Like the tesla self driving hardware only smaller and made of silicon.
Given how quickly they came and went on these buildings, it makes you wonder if they even ever were maintained beyond the initial install by the builder.
I've pushed buttons like that and the one Google offers, to find the parties still gleefully spam. Widgets can ~lie~ mislead, you know
That's a weak rebuttal. It's not disputed except by the lunatic fringe - starship has carried a payload (although not quite to orbit, very close to).

Whatever that means is what it means, the ship was out of control and I don't know whether or not the mission requiring that payload was successful, but the fact is that it did carry the payload.
Oh, writing my own Pinboard archive exporter is somewhere on my too-long to-do list. I should find out what would be good for importing into Archivebox. (WARC?)
Not op but seems a similar article was posted on the same topic.

Takeaway seems to be closed source hardware just might be bad when you don't know what it actually does.
> BTW, to give this a software dimension: I was recently on a flight with an airline I hadn't used before, and I really liked a UI in their in-flight infotainment that showed the entire flight as a timeline with all meaningful events penciled in (when the meals are, etc.) and a recommendation during which blocks to sleep. That was really nice and thoughtful.

Do you recall which airline this was? Given similar pricing, this seems like a useful differentiator that would sway my decision of which airline to pick.
This is where we need something like GDPR, which makes it so that they can't auto subscribe you to a new list whenever they feel like resubscribing you.
I hope someone backed all of these up, they sound like a goldmine
We have just the product for you! We’ve recently improved guardrail accuracy by 25% for a $5B client and would be happy to show you how we do it.

You're right - prompt eng. alone doesn't work. It's brittle and fails on most evals.

> Then you can use a language and runtime like C# or Java. Or you can use patterns like Go promotes.

But in that case you're stuck paying the overhead 100% of the time, even though 90% of the lifetimes are simple. (Perhaps a little less so with escape analysis etc., but doing it at compile time in a way that's understandable in the source feels a lot more reliable)
All I get is `Connection lost. Please refresh the page. Your progress has been saved.`
And... there it is, 11 paragraphs in: "The first Xe-100 SMR is being developed at a Dow manufacturing site on the Texas Gulf Coast, with financial support from the US government." (Emphasis mine.)

From Admiral Rickover's 'Paper Reactor' memo (1953)[1]:
"An academic reactor or reactor plant almost always has the following basic characteristics:

1. It is simple. 2. It is small. 3. It is cheap. 4. It is light. 5. It can be built very quickly. 6. It is very flexible in purpose (“omnibus reactor”) 7. Very little development is required. It will use mostly “off-the-shelf” components. 8. The reactor is in the study phase. It is not being built now." (Emphasis mine, again.)

I've seen so many of these come (and go), I think they actually use Rickover's paper as a blueprint for their marketing pitch. Xe's site on the Xe-100[2], "A simple design & modularized components" where, "Our elegant and simple design maximizes the use of off-the-shelf components manufactured and shipped to site using existing road & rail." <shakes head>

I think safe and affordable nuclear power could do a great deal of good. But I've seen "small modular reactor real soon" (including pebble-beds) for thirty years, so I'm reflexively skeptical. I checked to see if I could find any evidence this one is beyond the paper reactor stage, but my search-fu was insufficient to find it, presuming it exists.

Apple originally added their NPUs before the current LLM wave to support things like indexing your photo library so that objects and people are searchable. These features are still very popular. I don't think these NPUs are fast enough for GenAI anyway.
What in the world does that sentence even mean in this context?
Yeah, there's plenty of material which I've only been able to easily find on archive.org which does not look good for Israel. The dominant powers seem to be more effective at keeping their propaganda hosted than the resistance, so a takedown of the IA seems very much in line to me with Israeli capabilities and motives.
That's the story of the entire big tech sector and they can't deny it.

If tech leaders actually believed that they were adding value and receiving fair proceeds, they wouldn't spend so much energy trying to control the media. They wouldn't be increasingly distrusted. Society wouldn't be so divided. They wouldn't need a monetary system based on unlimited money creation.

It's interesting that morality is often mentioned when discussing such companies. It must be a significant challenge for them to find people who are both intelligent enough and immoral (or amoral) enough to do the kind of work which still yields profits in a system such as ours. They now have to signal their moral status far and wide to every corner of the globe attract the 'right' candidates.
Basically because everyone here is an immigrant of some sort just maybe not first generation. Also because the vast majority of people who show up at the Mexican border are fleeing horrific violence and when you are fleeing horrific violence it is difficult to always do things by the book. And also it is a reaction to just how poorly these people that otherwise would be classified as refugees get treated. Under Trump in particular family separation became the norm and courts who oversaw immigration cases had kids as young as 4 brought before a judge without family or legal representation.
You may have misread "first and worst". Democrats eventually follow suit, but the cherry picked example of CA doesn't account for the partisan overrepresention of Republicans in gerrymandrered congressional districts. It's not even close on a national level.

For Super PACs: again this is from Citizens United which was pushed by Republicans and confirmed by an activist Republican Supreme Court. They own that 100 percent now and forevermore.

Sorry, again I know people want to be "ackshually bothsides" but it doesn't apply here.
There is so much market disruption potential for e-readers.

Every one has a pretty big tradeoff if you are looking to use the e-reader as a general study tool (i.e. using it with Anki for language learning)

- boox devices run Android 11, illegally violate the GPL, and have poor customer service

- meebook devices are too underpowered and also run Android 11

- Kindles are too restrictive and anti-consumer; also does not have an Android option

- Kobo is probably the best, but still no Android option

- PineNote or Linux options are too expensive and unstable
Interesting; those techs do not seem to be on djb's radar in his undated, and rather outdated, diatribe.

https://cr.yp.to/djbdns/ipv6mess.html

So if NAT64+DNS64 moderate this, it seems like there's no meaningful barrier to IPv6-only clients. But, NAT64 translators seem as user-hostile as CGNAT. If this is "transition only", at what point can those translators be removed? Is there an exit plan that would present a smooth and clean, IPv6-only experience, once full transition is accomplished? Or will these be an enduring crutch for decades to come?
Lol, the whole point of Edge models is to be able to run them locally.
With the solution presented it is all automatic on git push; I don't have to run the script manually. So, I think perhaps you've misunderstood some of the post.

You suggest doing an automatic upload (which could only be done from specific machines) and I'm doing an automatic download (to the target server, so changes can be pushed from any machine!)
I switched from a Kindle to a Kobo (monochrome), and simply having the book cover as the lock screen makes me like it so much more. I always paid to not have ads on the Kindle, but it would show a bunch of generic images. The book cover is the obvious choice. Kobo gets it.

The reading experience is a little more bare bones, but good enough, and still offers things a physical book does not.
> end-to-end encryption would be the best practice

If you think about it, no it's not in this case.

The "end" you are refering to here, are mostly Chinese android phones.

The system just hook into your apk, read your (encrypted) sqlite3 local data, or screen-read your UI for content.

Even the Wechat realized how badly the landscape was, so they even rolled rolled out inhouse "input method" for "privacy conerns"
It's a website where most articles don't have translations. This article seems like an exception, and I can't think of a simpler way to do this either.

If you had separate paths for each language, most links would have an unnecessary /en/.
very biased and unrealiable sources though...
Not able to compute that won't stop them reselling or holding it.
At some point it will leak, and available for sell to PI or someone will more personal interest on you
That’s exactly what the poster is arguing- they are being sarcastic.
Never known this exists. How’s the experience from HN users here? I may get the Aair as it is on-sale now.
Cheats nowadays can and do

a) run on 2nd pc passively capturing the screen and commands to a fake mouse device plugged into both machines,

b) "humanise" the aim with ai models trained on professional players

c) add random variances within the limits of human reaction times

So it doesn't solve things, really it'd still be playing catchup.
Not sure why not mention the airline in the post directly. Is this some kind of avoiding advertising for the brand? Really curious. Can't be click bait or SEO on hn.
Capacity and usage are two different things. China are using their new coal stations as redundancy (and because of a weird disconnect between national and local governance which means each local government is incentivized to make this redundancy)
Anecdotally but from the list you just provided, ghost seemed the least cluttered and seems like an old basic webpage with modern looks. Not hating on any other solution though, whatever works for you is great....and maby I need a larger sample size to judge fairly.
Or people today ever discovering it.
I don't see how passkeys do anything to prevent phishing.
just keep repeating "earth is not flat and there's no way that could be"

those people get no voice around these parts.

also, nevermind the existence of higher order constructs like manifolds. that cannot be what "earth is flat" idiots could be referring to.

> you do a chargeback, the merchant gets … a chargeback fee … But the merchants respond by banning customers who do this

If I've had to do a chargeback, I'm highly unlikely to want to spend further money with that company in future, so they can "ban" me all they like.
What's the difference between someone who can review a command and someone who can't? How do you know you have reached that point?
Well, the workaround to unsubscribe is just spam. It’s hard to argue that I get effectively fewer emails as a result of those regulations, even though I like them. I just get effectively infinite emails. There’s no effective difference between 10,000 spam emails a day and 11,000. The fact that Banana Republic actually stops sending me email when I tell them to is nice (for me and them really) but not practically meaningful.

To the extent that I see anything other than spam email it’s just because of spam filters not anything regulatory. If you don’t believe me just run an email server with no spam filter.

This regulation might actually be better though because it applies to only services users have given a credit card to. Those services are thus 100% dependent on access to the federal banking system, which can easily be revoked.
Please realize, in China, you can't trust your "end" either. It's always infested with spyware with local root access.
Completely agreed. I've always loved bookshops.

I have noticed as I age that there doesn't seem to be many books for my demographic any more though - probably a problem with me rather than the industry.

Or maybe middle aged men just read sports autobiographies now. <shrugs>
I remember in the summer of 89 having to wait several hours in Uzhhorod for exactly this reason. I don't remember if they kicked us of the train or if we wanted to use the opportunity to do some sightseeing, but there were no sights to see in Uzhhorod in 1989. The most notable thing we found was a local "wall of shame": a display case with pictures of local miscreants, together with the listings of their crimes. Being at the height of Gorbachev's prohibition, the most common crime was "drinking alcoholic beverages in public". I think that if I had to live in Uzhhorod in late 1980's, I would probably end up drinking alcoholic beverages in public as well.

who are the unbiased and reliable sources
Internet points are a bit crap but HN generally discusses things properly and off topic and downright weird stuff generally gets downvoted to doom.
Thank you.

How do you choose which articles go where?

At least one is outdated - the launch of Europa Clipper.

For me, clustering articles by topic would make it much more efficient, so I could browse by topic. Easier said than done, of course, unless you are manually curating it.
Thats interesting. Will use this definition in the about page in the future :)
Has o1 been jailbroken? My understanding is o1 is unique in that one model creates the initial output (chain of thought) then another model prepares the first response for viewing. Seems like that would be a fairly good way to prevent jailbreaks, but I haven't investigated myself.
> We've tried to avoid that by making both the input matrices more square, so that tiling and reuse should be possible.

While it might be possible it would not surprise me if a number of possible optimizations had not made it into Onnx. It appears that Qualcomm does not give direct access to the NPU and users are expected to use frameworks to convert models over to it, and in my experience conversion tools generally suck and leave a lot of optimizations on the table. It could be less of NPUs suck and more of the conversions tools suck. I'll wait until I get direct access - I don't trust conversion tools.

My view of NPUs is that they're great for tiny ML models and very fast function approximations which is my intended use case. While LLMs are the new hotness there are huge number of specialized tasks that small models are really useful for.
One could also lens neutrinos using the Sun's core. Because neutrinos are not absorbed by the Sun, there is a critical offset from the core where they are maximally focused. This would form a caustic, and would cause increased magnification of the neutrino signal at that focal distance.
I used the z-score. How can you claim that the digits of pi are random, yet a random forest classifier predicted better than the distribution probability. Your claim implicitly means "there is no structure." The hard thing to understand is that the classifier didn't see the test set, so what structure did it learn? At the very least this is an interesting question
Right, but it's somewhat IAs fault, since they didn't secure their shot properly

Maybe they needed this wakeup call before someone could, say, remove all of their data
