The conclusion I took away from this piece is just how heartless it is to depend on a promotion committee. I know Google put them in place because they wanted an Engineering-driven culture where people could do great Engineering work and still be recognized, even if their manager didn't. But it sure doesn't sound like these promotion committees are recognizing great Engineering work, especially when that work falls under difficult-to-quantify cultural improvements.

Life is better when you find counterparts (customers, leaders, etc.) who appreciate what you bring to the table and can demonstrate that appreciation via promotion decisions. Faceless committees relying on packets fundamentally, by design, cannot develop the relationship that allows for genuine appreciation to form. If you're in a company whose leadership doesn't appreciate you, then why are you forcing yourself to stay? Go find somewhere that does appreciate you. If Google doesn't learn that it's simply not possible to avoid the loss of good talent to bad management or process, then that's their loss. Take advantage of the good-enough performance reviews and take your time planning your exit. Life is too short to work in an organization that actively dissuades forming genuine, supportive, professional working relationships with colleagues.
What would preclude one from forking the kernel source, maintaining the man-pages separately, and expecting it to reach a similar adoption as the mainline?

Common sense.

Doesn't seem fractal: the dots on the door become big as the camera approaches it rather than revealing underlying fine-grained structure.
Here's what I got in different models:

GPT-4o: "Aldric" (male)

o1-preview: "Elara" (female)

4o-mini: "Lila" (female)

GPT-4 (legacy): "Elinor" (female)

Four different models, four different names. But one of them was Elara -- and, interestingly, it was in the latest model.

No, you are missing the point. The point is the scaling is all wrong. The IQ distribution, normally distributed by design, is what people think of when talking about intelligence. But it does not give proper intuition as there is no evidence that _intelligence itself_ is normally distributed.

More concretely, someone with 140 IQ is not 40% more intelligent than someone with 100 IQ. It would be more correct to say that 140 IQ person is orders of magnitude more intelligent than the average person.

Perhaps a better analogy is the decibel scale. 100 dB vs 110 dB is only a difference of 10% on the scale, but in actually represents an order of magnitude change. A similar effect goes on with intelligence and how we measure it.

Pure bullshit unless you're going to dig up Lincoln being assassinated.

At least you could stop lying and stop victim blame and for once take some responsibility and accountability, instead you just cope by both siding it.
Has any legal precedence been established that training breaks copyright? Are you implying that reprinting a novel word-for-word, except for changing one character's name, wouldn't be copyright infringement?
If you want to be respected (but not 'integrate') as a foreigner by traditional society in Japan it's good to work at a prestigious place where there are few Japanese people such as an embassy. Failing that a gaishikei company that sounds foreign to people who don't know better but isn't (likely >90% Japanese). Or just be rich (this may also involve being very picky or completely averse to working with the native population).

I'm not sure if it's policy, law or I just looked suspicious.

I'm a full stack web developer with 10 years of experience. Have been freelancing for 4 years, before that I was at german fintech unicorn N26. Looking for a part time project for next year. I love to build MVPs, can also put together a team of designer/developers if necessary. Also happy to integrate into an existing dev team.

* If GenAI is good at poetic forms, could it be asked to generate sentences with a particular mono- vs multi-syllable word pattern? Or would this search better be done in Prolog/with a TTS db?
Yes, that is the problem with modern things. Claming to be new and modern but things that used to be instant is getting slower and slower. There was a time when things were still getting faster and faster. I had the privilege to try a normal fixt-line phone a month ago. I had totally forgotten how fast they call and connect after using a modern smartphone for years.

I remember the time when I started with phones. A connection took 10-20 seconds before you heard the tone after dialing the number. And then the AXE (or whatever they vere called) switchboards came. The connection time dropped to just a second or less. Now the connection time depends a lot on how fast your smartphone is. Mine takes several seconds even though it's just a couple of years old.

Thanks.
Arguing about where you draw the line doesn't advance anything, it just muddies the water. We have robust definition of what is and isn't alive built by consensus. Mitochondria fall into the 'not alive' category by our definition. Presenting decades old scientific views as evidence that this categorisation is wrong doesn't add anything. This article has had far more exposure than some really groundbreaking science and it adds nothing.
I saw this recently and thought "great!" and tried it out, thinking I would love it. But somehow I actually prefer the way git already does it, even if it seems inferior to me. Maybe I'd just have to get used to it?
Well, that's definitely a valid point of view.

But in my opinion if you want to earn money, then you should look for some sort of employment, and not be a volunteer in a project that's very famous about being built by volunteers, and demand to be paid (or else). If you don't want to be an unpaid volunteer anymore (which is a very fair thing to do), there are much more graceful ways to achieve that.
To be honest, for some children, even books are better teachers than classrooms with other teenagers constantly disrupting the class with teachers not being able to teach nor being able to punish the disruptive children due to modern regulatory burden, which removes total accountability from children.

Our classrooms have already been ruined, not just in america but worldwide.
AI will be great for the decent, obedient, smart kids as a tool to extend themselves learning wise, those kids can read books at home, learn, ask questions to AI that immediately generates visuals to explain concepts use agentic model to detect the core of the child’s doubt about a topic in background thinking and iteratively resolve all the issues.

But the saddest part of all this to me, is it’ll never be able to help the disruptive kids with often broken households with no one to look after them, no one to lead them to the right path, the more at-home solutions will get better, the creamy top layer of children will distance themselves from broken community classroom education, and it’ll further divide us all as a society.

To think of that inevitable future, it breaks my heart. AIs can be far better evaluators than classrooms, with connected cameras, recognition systems, anti-cheat solutions to then automatically review a child’s progress, capability, depth of knowledge about systems, and can do it in a more standardized way to benchmark all of america’s children reliably than teachers and state level evaluation exams we have now.

CommonCore was meant to solve this, its been a disaster, i think the future of AI is more prominent in Evaluation than it is in Learning, learning wise i think it is doomed anyways, simply because 70% of kids are addicted to doomscrolling social media, have been habituated to bad disruptive behaviours, and are left unsupervised as “iPad children” by modern day unserious parents.
I dont see AI solving any of that anytime soon, only pragmatic human solutions could possibly solve that, with communities taking a stand to reverse these declining trends.
The People Who Quit Dating
I've found models to be incredibly fixed and repetitive for creative writing. I have this project based around a cyberpunk city, and have been experimenting with LLMs for content generation.

The same names and themes continually crop up, despite promoting variations.
How do I enable this by default (in .gitconfig)?
It really depends. Many apps currently cannot be distributed through the stores or the maintainers have to endure a lot of bullying to stay in the stores. (Think NewPipe et al)

In these cases, the middlemen like Google are the hostile party. Essentially the threat actor. It is natural: big tech is big tech, because they are very good at limiting user choice.

For these applications, Obtainium is brilliant.

It also shows that the store model that everyone is working to enshrine in digital policy is not the necessity that Big Tech would have everyone believe.

LWN is not a documentation project. It's a news outlet.

Always; yet at the same time, because of those shadows, almost all specific claims of some specific face being spotted in those shadows isn't correct.

Thiel personally, and the name "Palantir", gives off Bond Villain vibes (yes I know it's LOTR). How much of that is the actual threat, vs. an unmarked shipping crate owned on paper by "Dave's Shrimp Inc."?

I don't think it matters if the judge agrees with me.

Cases will be brought before judges based on money. Big pirates that are somehow making money doing it will be brought in front of a judge and some love will impact them.

Anybody hypothetically pirating one steam game to play for themselves because they felt alienated by Steam isn't going to be dragged in a judge.
Reminds me of Aaron Swartz' html2text that I think serves the same purpose: http://www.aaronsw.com/2002/html2text/

I'm not making fun of you, it's just that we do know what point mutations are and understand things well enough that there won't be unwanted side effects to fixing them when they are causing significant problems.

Not being able to cleanly fix just the mutation is a separate issue from that understanding.
You can start a windows process in a paused state, then inject some code in it, pause or destroy the main thread, create your own thread, then unpause the process. The result would look a lot like this.

What you gain from it is another question. The injected code could do its malware thing first, then start the real program?

As the rootkit is on the internet, presumably you could read it. But I'm not going to touch it with a 10 meter pole.

No, I won't. Your request is unreasonable. You posted a claim that is not true. This bug has nothing to do with the Mach layer of XNU, and the blog post has enough detail to explain why. When I call you out on that, you don't get to retreat to an absurd position and ask me to substantiate it: there's probably six degrees of separation between what I ate for breakfast and these bugs shipping. This is something that is basically impossible to falsify, but also deeply uninteresting. So I am not going to entertain it for you.

does that qualify as 'looking for some sort of employment' ?

The safety-argument functions as an apologetic narrative to justify the gatekeeping.

Strangely, almost everything the Play Store pushes at me (Temu, TikTok, millions of communication apps with dubious reputation) is crap.

I would never install an app without checking the permissions it asks for, researching the owner of the app as well as the the tracking it includes - yet the store never makes those things transparent, quite the opposite.

Google even takes money to show you bad apps through PlayStore app ads designed to look like an organic app listing. This is apparently a mechanism to profit directly from deceiving users. (Right now, for example, it shows a gambling app, some "beautifying" shovelware, and "Tango live streaming," which the author probably believes by heart is not made for porn.)

So either Google is trying to protect its users and just isn't very good at it, or it's a fake argument to hide corporate power.

But it's impossible to know for sure, isn't it?
Anarchy.

There are many flavours of it, a former partner believes in a communist flavour that abolishes money, I used to know someone else who wanted anarcho-capitalism.

I'm not convinced any are stable, I think organised groups weild power much more effectively and in so doing sieze power from any attempt at anarchy — which is a shame because more personal freedom is also appealing.
Any kind of "pinpointing" you can do is probably going to end up equivalent to the project-to-a-sphere method, except less clear or pretty.

An approach I've used is to use https://github.com/newren/git-filter-repo (amazing, versatile tool) to put the tree into a subdirectory, and namespace its tags, and then merge that into another tree with --allow-unrelated-histories. I built a tool for an employer that automated this process for the purpose of consolidating an excessive number of repositories.
I'm convinced the path to ubiquity (such as embedded in smartphones) is quantization.

I had to int4 a llama model to get it to properly run on my 3060.

I'm curious, how much resolution / significant digits do we actually need for most genAI work? If you can draw a circle with 3.14, maybe it's good enough for fast and ubiquitous usage.

Also not American.

Some hire the illegal immigrants, and many benefit from the lower prices this brings.

The game theoretic payoff varies a lot depending on which specific interest and timescale you have, including from the countries the migrants come from who probably don't want their moderately capable citizens — above average but not by enough to do it legally — leaving, and wose: getting badly paid jobs so they can't send much cash back home.
> just as with any app not found in Play Store

I would recommend caution with apps from the store too. Not only are many predatory practices not disallowed, outright malware can and does slip through review. The advice is the same as ever when it comes to computers: don't run programs you don't trust, and set your bar of trust high.

If it's excess methane, you won't sense it. This is why municipal gas has a smell agent added. The same cannot be done for space fuel.
If it's hydrazine, it is about as smelly as gasoline but ammonia, I think, but the toxic dose is below the smell threshold.

So no, you do not get to generalize here.

As long as I don't see you joining the usual "duh this is a government backdoor" crowd next time any bug comes up, sure.

This blog post describes a class of vulnerabilities. That's why there are ten of them. A well-resourced adversary with the capability to influence software development would want their backdoor to be small and difficult to discover. In many cases they would like guarantees that they are the only entity to be able to abuse such a vulnerability. While one can argue that these bugs were difficult to find–they were only fixed now–they really aren't very good backdoor bugs. Why leave dozens of holes all over the place when you only need a few? It's much more likely that this is just a failure case that someone failed to consider.

I remember Borland’s resource editor. I themed my VGA.DRV file quite extensively.

Later on, Windows NT gained resource forks. An early security flaw of IIS was that you could ask it to serve the DATA fork of any source file and see things like hard-coded credentials (because IIS would not execute the file, just serve its contents).

> In fact macOS apps are just a directory containing both the main binary and resources.

This is a much saner design decision, but it wouldn’t be possible before the file system got folders.

Forks caused all sorts of issues when you needed to transmit a file from one computer to another without using a floppy disk.
Hitting the sandbox extension limit is not necessarily a leak. There are a number of apps that deal with thousands of files at once and they will very quickly hit the limits. It's a perennial problem with anyone who makes professional, but sandboxed, software for macOS.

Show HN: A Chrome extension to Test and Preview 1000 fonts on any webpage
Despite having a good color palette and design, something seemed off for a project I was making for my client.

I then started playing around with different google fonts one by one, which was time consuming, but changing typography did make a huge difference.

So, to save time I made this chrome extension to help you test and preview 1000+ Google fonts and generate the CSS code for it.

You can also upload and test local fonts on website with it. Right now, the extension works on any chromium based browser, will soon develop for Firefox as well.
