Exactly. This trope gets repeated all the time about "listen to your inner voice" or "gut feelings" and we hardly ever talk about the alternatives. My gut tells me all kinds of things, sometimes contradictory things depending on the time of day. And its all but impossible to discern the difference between what my "gut" is telling me vs what the little voice in my head is telling me, which may very well be at odds. Plus all this is corrupted by "dopamine chasing" behaviors, or the equivalent. Add on top of that people for whom their gut instincts may have led them into pain in the past. It's not simple at all.
That sounds cool and I like the idea, but definitely won't pay 5x. Maybe charge $30/month plus bring your own key. Let me know when you lower the price :)
I also have a feeling that the pH of rehydration drinks should be low (acidic). To an extent, my body knows pretty well what's good for it. The salt+water tastes terrible, add a little acid and it's delicious. Maybe it takes a little load off of the digestive system by providing the acid that would otherwise need to be generated.
Thanks, I’ll try customer support and see how it goes.
QNX and BeOS were the only operating systems I tried in the early '00s that could make old single-core mid-90s Pentiums feel excellent and snappy to use. Far, far better than any Windows version, or Linux.

I assume it's mostly scheduler stuff and much better multimedia stacks, in both cases. I always hoped the operating systems of the future would feel more like that. Closest we've got is probably iOS and it cheats by killing processes all the time. The future is lame.
I don't blame Satya, I blame the foaming at the mouth AI-frenzied investor class. If these folks thought a second about this tech and tried to use it in a number of domains, they would not be clamoring to AI all the things.
It's not surprising given the inroads companies like scale.ai have been making into the D.o.D. Partnering with Palantir gives some credibility (debatable) with deploying product etc.

Having worked on one of these projects two years ago, back then the waiving of hands for dealing with hallucinations and risks was a bit offputting and at times scary. Hopefully as we deploy these tech stacks we take serious time to do it slow and steady and working out the edge cases and failures.
This is a brilliant initiative. I think that less is more. Recently I was trying to inspect Twitter/X to obtain a video. You would not believe how many nested 'div' elements it was buried under.

I also had to do a X icon to replace the Twitter bird. So I went to get the official one and make it into my lean SVG. Again, you would not believe how much bloat was in what should have been a very simple file.

This is no rant about Twitter, the web in general is 99% bloat. I don't believe Google have 'stewarded' the web well enough to keep it lean.

If we go with the icon example, an icon has to be simple or else it is not an icon. Yet we have huge icon sets as fonts with excessive bloat. This is why I end up having to hand-carve SVG assets on the regular.

This aspect of simplicity applies to web pages too. Style sheets should not be thousands of lines. Content does not need to be nested in a billion divs, particularly since no div elements are needed now we have content sectioning elements and CSS grid layout.

The leanness of a website should be important as an expression of brand values for companies. For example, if your business is making cars, your website should be the fastest loading one to reflect your 0-60 times.

Hopefully we will get metrics for efficiency as one of things like accessibility that people strive for in varying degrees, with this efficiency being good for SEO. As it is, Google prefer data to be poorly structured as wading through rubbish is what their business depends on. If all content was well organised without the bloat then others would be able to do search to compete with Google. Hence we have a sea of divs on every web page, even though MDN docs says the div element is the element of last resort.

How does it seem like the opposite? It's POSIX.
It's a step in the right direction.

Unfortunately, this not that common and typically only occurs in very simple cases. In my experience, an LLM will typically just plow ahead in most cases and let the user figure it out --- or not.
I've said it before and I'll say it again... any company that actually cared about AI "safety" or "alignment", or had any belief that we are on the threshold of AGI, should steadfastly refuse to let it be used in any sort of military or intelligence context.

That's literally how you get Skynet, and that's what everyone claims to be worried about, right? Or are they just full of shit

Edge just means running on servers near you (eg. the closest AWS AZ) rather than the other side of the world. It’s still servers in data centres.
Check out Bambu Lab printers if you want something more modern. They have several models available for less than $1000 and give good results with little messing around.

I say this as someone who doesn’t want 3d-printing as a hobby. It’s just a tool I want to occasionally use in order to get something else done and the less time I have to spend tramming and calibrating, the better.
I like this, hope it results in some actionable recommendations I can use to avoid "yet another JS library that achieves the thing that we can already do with modern HTML+CSS" (if only my colleagues were willing to learn anything besides React that is...)
I'm skimming the linked Web Sustainability Guidelines. It's pretty much the normal stuff HN-types have been banging on about in every thread on webdev for the last decade or two. I don't really see how this will change anything.

It depends on what your toilet supply lines are like and if you use a cold water only or a cold/hot water bidet, but a cold water only one (not nearly as uncomfortable as imagined before trying it) is very easy to install as long as your supply line has a shutoff valve and is relatively flexible.

It takes 15-20 minutes and it basically consists of unscrewing a few things and screwing them back together again.
Strongly disagree about Spotify. Quality aside, many albums simply aren't there! I have my own routine of discovering new pearls (YouTube used to help me with that years ago, nowadays it just suggests what I already viewed or some random stuff) and I set aside some time for that. After that, I choose the albums I really like, in the best quality.

The problem that Spotify actually tries to solve is that no matter how much we love that particular piece or album, we will get bored with it at some point, even if you dose your pleasure. So in theory Spotify could ease the process of finding interesting music. But in practice, I wound nothing can bet the tedious process of manual research and selection.
Don't know about Britain but the US also allows passport renewals by mail, so they can't check the photo against your face but they presumably can check it against your previous passport photo.

They are planning to locally change the electrical conductivity of brain tissue by focused ultrasound, modulate that with at few hundred kHz and do a lock-in (EEG) measurement to deduce electrical activity at that spot on the scale of 1mm. Pretty wild if that actually works.

We don't even have to do "more" satellites, though that's also good.

Putting the same satellites into orbit for $1 million instead of $100 million means we saved $99 million. Which can then be put to other uses.

Lower taxes, spending on other programs, repaying the national debt, your pick.
> Every demographic crisis involving low birthrates is an immigration melting pot waiting for the population to get desperate enough to change policies.

Unless people accept the reality that perpetual growth is impossible, and that the economy will shrink as the population does. The UK austerity years provides a decent example of such a "managed decline", albeit with more immigrants, but that's not assured when the next conservative government comes to power.

I bought the cheapest printer available, the Kobra Go I believe, and with very little tweaking I had it running well enough that I don’t care to tweak more. I owned a delta printer ten years ago which I spent $1200 plus another $600 in custom parts and it ran about the same as my current one (though it was bigger) and my current one cost $150 plus shipping. I don’t suggest the cheapest one if you have the money but I only use mine once a month or less so it was the perfect price vs. functionality. I did build the old one from a kit and modified nearly every mechanism though, so I’m relatively confident with these machines. I do suggest the more expensive, better quality printers if you don’t want to tweak stuff much.
It sounds like it's arguably still a form of RAG, just where the retrieval is very different. I'm not saying that to knock your approach, just saying that it sounds like it's still the case where you're retrieving some context and then using that context to augment further generation. (I get that's definitely not what people think of when you say RAG though.)
My read of

> Edges exit nodes in their specified cardinal direction. In the zoomed-in images, edges belonging to the true graph are black and false edges added by the reconstruction algorithm are red.

is that the model output edges,
valid ones were then colored black and bad ones colored red. But it's a bit unclear so you could be right.
Ah well I'm sorry, I must misremember

It depends how you define "affordable". Daedalus (the late David E.H. Jones) writing in New Scientist in 1974 sketched an idea for a laser-based system and almost immediately received a notice of complaint from an existing patent holder (plus ca change ...) although unlike patent trolls this patent holder had actual objects made by the process.

The system here was based around a minicomputer (or at least a successor patent of 1978 so described it) so we're talking tens of thousands of dollars for the compute involved in that scheme - but that first 1971 patent must have expired in the 90s by which time inexpensive compute was trivially available to match early 70s minicomputer capabilities.

And that is equivalent to invading Iraq?

No, it's equivalent to being just another windbag politician who, depending on which way the wind blows, and what he thinks his audience wants to hear, will happily support all the big, bad evil things that you pretend he is opposed to.

Great questions:

1. We currently don't support multi-dimensional arrays, but we plan to add support for such complex data structures.

2. Would you be able to share what type of user-defined functions are these, do they do modify the data or read it?
Not in the US. The pipe just goes straight into the toilet. When googling around seeing articles about installing Tushy when you have rigid pipes they are still much more flexible than mine, with separate parts you can disconnect and replace.

It's true Pidgin 2's XMPP support sucks, there's no denying that. That said we can't easily fix that with the current API which is why Pidgin3/Purple3 is the only path forward.

That said, I'm pushing to have an experimental release of Pidgin 3 out by the end of the year. However it's only going to have IRC support right now because well there's only so many hours in the day especially when Open Source is your passion project and not your day job.

I agree with this, especially when you consider that it is us, the taxpayer that is largely subsidizing musk to build out this toll booth.

It is not crazy to believe that in the medium term that SpaceX will be one of the only viable ways for America to access space. In that position SpaceX will have a lot of leverage and ability to extract concessions from anyone wanting to go to space.

Why my tax dollars should go to help the worlds richest man build a toll booth between earth and space is beyond me.
> Chinese social media is pretty vibrant with the exception that you can’t agitate for the fall of the government.

Just because one criticizes or expresses anger at the central government does not mean that they want to induce mobs that will topple it like in Ukraine. I sincerely doubt China's future history books will talk about the Pooh Bear mobs that brought down Xi's government. More likely to complain about housing or jobs.
It is really interesting that many people in this world seem to refuse to allow AI to insult (or offend) any person but would be okay if AI took part of killing them (if they were in the wrong place at the wrong time of course). I don't share this opinion and would be interested to hear about what is the thought process of people that come to support that. Other than financial aspect (people who actually benefit financially), Is it something like our enemies will use it so we should too ? Does this mean not using that against your enemies that does not use it or what ?
Wow. 80186. That's something you don't see every day.
>Considering how fanatical Apple users can be about literally anything Apple throws at them they were not excited about AI

No True Scotsman all over here. Where people embrace and adopt AI, it isn't real. But a million incredibly dumb sociology surveys of nebulous, imaginary things are super convincing.

>Many of them are certainly in a bit of trouble

Literally none of them are "in trouble". I mean, Google has kind of underperformed and is behind the ball, but absolutely none of them have retreated at all.

Seriously, this whole discussion is hilarious. Every single major company is dumping enormous efforts into AI, redoubling and redoubling again their commitment based upon market analysis and what they've seen. If you counter this by pointing at some asinine college survey of fantasy products with absurd titles, you might be deluding yourself.

>my use of the phrase "paid internship" was not accidental.

Is "intern" a different meaning where you're from? For me, it implies an opportunity to learn under a company, where learning is a primary objective over proper payment.

Who are these teachers you're learning under? Where and how are you finding a teacher in music that you aren't paying for but is paying you to learn?

>Low worked their asses off with endless touring for the better part of a decade to make their name and kept it up until Al and Mimi had their daughter, but Al kept playing constantly

If you haven't noticed, the world's gotten (ironically) much less connected over the last 20 years. I can barely get my friends out for lunch. People who already know and assumedly like me. It's simply gotten a lot hard to do that 80's style of living in a van, paying $1-2 a day for food, and playing your passions until you can move to a semi-normal standard of living.

It's not impossible, and I appreciate the pun. But that lifestyle wouldn't really be possible in urban America. Not even a matter of "I don't want to live in a van". Those cities just got a lot more hostile towards loitering and theft is on the rise. A van is just putting a target on your face for someone, legally or for illegal preying. Even just being on the streets because of no homes can get you arrested with where current legislature it going in my area.

its just gotten rough. If you don't have parents supporting you, it is literally a dangerous lifestyle.
The US identified much of the same issues, and even wrote similar laws to curb them although they became stalled in bureaucracy.

It's a bold statement to call something a Prolog successor! Are you aiming for a general purpose logic programming language like Prolog, or targeting the use case of querying knowledge bases?

One of the draws to Prolog is its immensely simple syntax:
A.R:B = true in your case would be represented as simply r(A, B).

It looks like you've elevated some set theory properties to syntax, and have added some neat sugar over chained relations. Have you found areas where this really shines as compared to writing more standard Prolog/Datalog queries? I'm afraid I couldn't see many examples on first look at your Github.
To add on, I know a lot of people see the terminal as cruft/legacy from the mainframe days. But it is a funny thing to look at tons of people's IDE setup and see that the one _consistent_ thing between them all is that they have a terminal nearby. It makes sense, too, since programs run in the terminal and you can only abstract so much to developers. And like James said, this sets us up nicely to build for a future of coding agents running around. Feels like a unique insight, but I dunno. I guess time will tell.
Does TPC-H SF1 really take _one and a half hours_ for you on regular Postgres? Last time I tried (in the form of DBT-3), it was 22 queries and most of them ran in a couple seconds.
Superintelligence is not the same branch of the tech tree as drones or surveillance.
Under 1000:

- Robot vacuum (with mapping+LIDAR): Major game changer. I should have bought this years ago! The tech is now good enough that it basically never gets stuck unless you leave cables lying on the floor. It costs about as much as it would to hire a cleaning crew for a day. And this will do clean your house every single day!

- Bidet Seat (Heated)

- Chest freezer: Unlike the anti-car people on Reddit, I don't consider grocery shopping to be something I want to do every day. I can now get by with 1-2 trips for a whole month for two people. It also helps reduce food wastage once you figure out how to freeze your commonly used perishables that take too long to use up (e.g. heavy cream "ice cubes", frozen bread loaves etc.)

- Noise cancelling headphones (Sony XMs): I use them everyday and love the distraction free environment it creates (combine with MyNoise.net at work).

Under 100:

- Immersion blender: surprisingly versatile. The "barrier to entry" is smaller especially since it is super easy to clean compared to a blender (chuck it in the dish-washer).

- Electric toothbrush (granted it could be slightly over 100 for the one I got)
Now it can carry a weight similar to WCAG levels, which means that product managers and customers might pay more attention to these requirements, especially if they like ticking boxes.

"Our new update means we reach WGAC 2 Level AA to > 90% and WSG to 60%, next release we aim to reach WSG to >70%" might be something we hear next year.
An offtopic question: how do you manage to write all the years consistently with 0 at the start (I know why, but how), when everyone around you uses a different standard.

If I decided, IDK, to write "cnow" instead of "know", or "J" instead of "I", I wouldn't be able to do so consistently. Not in a world that massively uses the other word.

Or it would take me twice as much time to double-check everything that I have typed.
That sounds like a delightful project! This contemporary book from Usborne demonstrates the point that basic stepper controls from an 8-bit computer were well within hobbyist reach:
