I think you also need a caveat that failures must be recorded, and a specific treatment can only be used so many times without success. That will avoid providrrs who are self-deluded about the efficacy of their favourite drug/therapy.
No. This is often stated, but I believe provable systems make far more sense than provable people. Exclusionary qualifications and gatekeeping are an anachronism that needs to die. It's a positive thing that computing has lead the way in this area. Other facets of engineering need to do the same.
Legal question: is there an argument to be made that the arbitrator did not behave as a neutral third party (assuming that's the definition of arbitrator in your jurisdiction), and thus the contract has been breached and you're open to sue? I know that sounds Quixotic.
Nice to see you on HN :-) Too bad we couldn’t reach a deal on your Keto site, but hopefully the new owner takes care of it well. Can’t wait to see what you will do next! Cheers!
Russia is not imperialistic, Russia was fine with Ukraine as a sovereign state. More of it, due to current geopolitical shift, Russia is even more interested in Ukraine being a sovereign state, a buffer between Russia and NATO.

The problem is that USA twice messed with Ukraine sovereignty, first in 2004, and then in 2014 turned this country to a proxy, puppet state, bulwark against Russia. And that's why this war started, because Russia can not allow Ukraine to be turned into a hostile state, ideologically driven by hatred towards Russia and Russians and manipulated by NATO, with bases on its territory.

Russia is fine with Ukrainians, if you're unaware, Russia accepted the largest number of Ukrainian refugees of all countries. Most of these people got Russian citizenship. It's actually Ukraine, that turned Zelensky into a king with absolute power, dismantled all the opposition party, oppressed Russian language, culture, religion, wiping history, and basically brainwashing population with targeted hatred. The reality is: Ukrainian dystopian regime is hanging on Western support. Without money and weapons they can't even feed their people anymore, but already turning women to cannon fodder, and no doubt, that in a few month they'll force their kids to go to tranches also. Because Ukrainian leaders don't care about Ukraine or Ukrainians, all they care is their pockets, that are filled by the war, and their goal is to prolong this war for as much as possible.

sqlite on nfs from several processes on the same host should work. I think... Perhaps... maybe... (but why then are you using nfs?) It is just where it is unable to use the shared memory lock system that it starts corrupting. At least I hope, I don't use much sqlite myself, but I like having a nfs home directory and a lot of applications use sqlite.

I once worked at a place where they were using a database(unidata) that would error out if it detected it was being run on nfs. so they got around this problem by... running it on... smb. Sigh... I was like, you guys know why it does not want to run on nfs right.... smb will have the same problems, the database is just not explicitly looking for smb. if you ever write from both systems it will blow up the database and you have a very good chance to get incorrect data on reads. but the database team liked it and just dealt with the fires as they started. so it stuck.
I’m not going to substantially engage with you. Period.

You're right, and it's not just memory safety in the use-after-free sense. I just had to audit some out-of-bounds read CVEs, like https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2024-46723. Rust really makes you work hard to read past the end of an array.

I love a ban on social media for kids (although 16 is a bit high, I had my own apartment at 16), but it's unenforceable without draconian measures typical of Australia:

> Albanese and the communications minister, Michelle Rowland, did not rule out the potential for social media users to have their faces subject to biometric scanning, for online platforms to verify users’ ages using a government database, or for all social media users – regardless of age – being subject to age checks, only saying it would be up to tech companies to set their own processes.
It can't be that hard, once you develop a profile for a user, you just need to classify the incoming videos and cross reference their profile against the classifications.
> A company the size of TicketMaster who has undoubtedly already had lawyers from or familiar with multiple regions review and modify their contracts can damn well be considered "knowingly" doing this.

Known or should have known is usually how this is phrased.
Yes - white women were within a couple of points of white men voting for Trump, as being a larger chunk of voters made up for a slightly lower percentage share.

The big story is the starkly disparate turnout rates: Trump successfully got most of his 2020 voters to internalize his legal problems as their own, and most of them came back in 2024. There’s a lot of media coverage about the point shift but when you look at the actual turnout it’s striking how much closer the absolute number of votes he got in 2024 is to 2020 versus the sag on the other side.

Arbitration makes sense when you think about how costly the court system is. The problem is that the defendant gets to choose the arbiter, so its not a fair system. If the arbiter was neutral I think arbitration would generally be better than the traditional court system in many cases as its easier to use without legal representation.
The “might work” is doing a lot of heavy lifting in this sentence. How strong must the evidence be for the hypothesis of efficacy to be considered reasonable?
Side effects...ha. I was prescribed Lamictal for bipolar. In about 10% of patients, it causes your skin to blister, peel, and--if you don't stop taking it soon enouogh--it causes your skin to slough off your entire body. A very nasty, painful way to go.

Sure enough, I got a rash on both my lower legs....fortunately I stopped in time.

Why would they ever prescribe such a drug? Would it have anything to do with the fact that it can be patented, and companies hire cheerleaders in the off-season to chat-up doctors?

Lithium is cheap and effective. Yes, you have to periodically take a blood test to see if your kidneys are not being hurt. Yes, you have to get the dose right.

No, it doesn't cure your disease--bipolar is absolutely incurable. It helps you "manage" your disease, which means that instead of ruining your life, it will "Merely" be an incredible inconvenience.

But it saves lives. Even in areas where there is naturally more lithium in the drinking water, there are fewer suicides.

As far as I can tell most or all of these parts are parts that are commonly stocked at the major electronics distributors such as Digikey and that anyone can buy with little or no checking other than that the shipping address is in one of the 180 or so countries they ship to.

> What do we mean by success?

They should write an OS that is "so good" that people start talking about it as much as the options we have now, then people actually start using it on their servers (replacing GNU/Linux), then on their desktops. So good that companies like Google and Apple would consider making their next OSs or userland utilities in Rust.

It already happened for some programs like Alacritty, ripgrep but failed to do so in some other domains like user-space window managers.

The common argument against it is complexity and learning curve (compared to C).

Perhaps I'm not the one who should voice his opinion on this but anyway, I don't like _two_ languages in Linux kernel especially one that increases compile time and imposes heavy storage requirement on the development machine. If they want to add it, they should consider migrating everything to it IMO.
I find mine close to useless. The pen is sometimes really inconsistent, to the point where the ink gets applied 1mm from the pen tip. Also, no canvas for pdf annotation, no split screen, no search in pdfs and notes, only tags, etc. It's strictly worse than paper for me.
The current supreme court loves arbitration so I highly doubt that would work.

Actually, thinking about this further, even free of charge could be problematic. I can 100% see a "cancer research and spiritual healing" clinic popping up that uses the promise is a cure as a way to get someone in the door so they can later be sold on energy healing to increase effectivity of the sugar pill they give away.

Near me, the only trucks with this signage are hauling gravel. They frequently do a piss-poor job of covering the load and fling gravel that was left outside the bed during loading. I’ve had a fresh windshield chipped in under a month from these a-holes.
Apple does allow links to external payment options in some cases (see App Store Review Guideline 3.1.1), and sometimes rejects apps for links that it itself says should be legal, and is even legally required to allow in some jurisdictions. Which is not surprising, app reviewers spend only a few minutes looking at each app, and don't always understand the current rules.
At the risk of being obtuse, depends on what your definition of “promotion” is…

I’d classify the dimensions as:

- Compensation - obvious one. May vary by org

- Authority - are you officially allowed to give orders? Hire and fire?

- Respect and influence- in your org, do people specifically want EMs to be active in areas ICs are not, like strategy, etc. varies widely.

- Alignment with personal Career goals - some people hate management-type duties - so for them, this EM title change would be “not a promotion” to them

I’d say EM is a promotion in some of those ways and it varies a lot by org for sure.
Lots of discontented liberals who didn’t want to vote for more of the same, and the same politically motivated leftists who went to the polls for Biden in 2020 abandoned Harris after she moved to the right.

According to a Silicon Valley funded pro-Harris SuperPAC, her strongest messaging was on economic populism. Kind of strange she didn’t follow through with it…
Correct. That is your option when presented with unacceptable terms. Don't accept them. Counter with your own terms (not likely to work for run-of-the-mill online services though).

Additionally you may lobby your lawmakers to make this sort of thing illegal or at least more limited. But these arbitration clauses appeared because our civil law system was out of control with lawsuits. There needs to be reasonable limits on both sides.
Thanks for the reply.

I would like to explore this more if you are willing.

Do you consider yourself a “developer”? What is your title at said company?

Do you write code for yourself or for this business?

Who determined and what criteria define who “cannot be a client facing consultant”?

What is an “in house builder”?

What were these “fulltime devs” that you said “you don’t need anymore” doing before these llms?

Do your customers know you swapped from human workers to llms? Are they comfortable with this transition?

How did this change result in “much higher profit margins”?

When you say “with less people” did you just give multiple peoples’ workloads to a single dev or did the devs you retained ask for more work?

What do you use an llm for in the ERP space?

Why would clients use you if they could just use the llm?
It's definitely a different feel, but not bad. It feels like using a particularly smooth ballpoint on some nice heavyweight stationery. I don't find it particularly noticeable or distracting, but I also don't do much handwriting anymore. It has a pleasant amount of drag and has a very slight squishy feel, like if you're writing on a stack of two or three sheets.

My problem is that I apparently apply quite a lot of pressure when writing and the nib in the stylus wears out after a few dozen hours. Some people talk about using titanium nibs, but I'd rather burn through nibs than tear up the irreplaceable screen.

The handfeel is fantastic. It really is a wonderfully designed object.

However, the writing experience is not great. The digitizer is quite simply bad. RM knows about it and seemingly don't care. The digitizer develops random calibration problems and it becomes impossible to accurately put your pen on any specific spot. You absolutely cannot ever continue a stroke after you've lifted the pen. There is no way to recalibrate. The working theory is stray magnetization inside the digitizer, some people claim that dragging a magnet over the screen helps. It also has some nasty quantization issues. Pen strokes are not vectorised and come out inexplicably jagged and aliased.

If you are the type of person who can write quickly with very few mistakes, and without constantly looking at the page, you'd probably get good use out of the RM2. For me, I am abysmal at writing like this and the RM just gets in my way.

I do use my RM a fair bit, but for my use case, it's far less convenient than a paper notebook. I'm mostly taking research notes and diagramming things. I don't markup PDFs or take longhand meeting notes or anything.

Also, having been involved in the RM modding community, I feel pretty gross about ReMarkable the company. The originally billed this as an open, hackable linux device you can run custom software on. They almost immediately backtracked on this and removed the SDK from their website. Someone in the community has to go and individually email RM developers for a new copy of the SDK after each update. Plus the files that store your notes are in a proprietary format. The only way to get them out is to convert to a PDF on the tablet.

Generally I recommend you pass on the RM unless you know what you're in for. It's a beautiful device with horrible software and support.
While reading this, I was interested in the "double-blind tokenised approach" of age confirmation that guarantees privacy.
I think it is described here:
https://avpassociation.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/Specif...
It seems quite a good idea to me. It would be great if that was implemented, instead of 'dumb' requirement for everyone to upload ID to check for age.
In the sense that in Java (almost) everything is an object, a jOOQ query must of course return an object (such as a Record2<String, String>), but unlike Hibernate or AR, jOOQ doesn't enforce a 1:1 mapping between domain objects and tables, especially if you turn off POJO generation - at my last company, we had some custom mapping from a table to several subclasses of a sealed class depending on certain fields in the table - and you can even split a single class into two tables etc.

The Salad Theory
People did care back then. This paper had jumpstarted the whole model compression field (which used to be a hot area of research in early 90s): https://arxiv.org/abs/1511.00363

Before that, in 2012, Alexnet had to be partially split into two submodels, running on two GPUs (using a form of interlayer grouped convolutions) because it could not fit in 3GB of a single 580 card.

Ternary networks appeared in 2016. Unless you mean you actually tried to train in ternary precision - clearly not possible with any gradient based optimization methods.

I've open sourced a JavaScript to WASM compiler. It's an experimental tool, but given the semantics I already implemented, I'm fairly certain I am able to eventually cover 100% of JavaScript spec. Any ideas, questions or critique welcomed! If you are interested in WASM, especially with new proposals like WASM GC or exception handling, it might be a good source of seeing these features in action - the project has a few thousand lines of hand written WAT so far.

>And there were those that believed the Common Task was to resurrect the dead in computer simulations, reconstructed from the histories; others who believed spacetime was a crystal in four dimensions and, with the right instruments, the past could be accessed as readily as we look through a telescope; others whose cosmology was an engineered samsara, where, at the end of time, the end becomes the beginning, and the eternal return becomes our farcical resurrection. Others pushed the responsibility for the Common Task onto the gods: in their unknowable lives, they said, the gods were plotting the construction of heaven and the redemption of all men.

>He wrote of famines and things that were to her as distant in her past as the Mongol invasions had been to him.

>The book opened with the essays of Fedorov, trailed by commentaries written centuries later, called the Letters. In the second part the book moved abruptly, far into the future, to the accounts of the life of Herati of Merv. And by this time two of the promises of Fedorov had been fullfilled: immortality and the settlement of space by the immortals.

>The ancients subdued disease and age, they and their children settled the cosmos, they remade their bodies and their souls by hand. But even the gods could not turn back time, or rescue a mind from ashes. And the irreversibility of death was the central anxiety of civilization, and the central sorrow. In Ctesiphon, where quadrillions lived, death was almost unheard of. The surgeons had conquered suicidality. But the numbers of the dead increase only monotonically.
Sure, someone that is an entry level programmer will not have deep technical knowledge, that's not what I was trying to say though. My point is that levels only make sense in organizations that are big enough that tech leadership can't directly assess and compare ICs work because there's too much going on for any one technical expert to assess. Smaller organizations sometimes cargo cult leveling systems because it helps their ICs resumes and give a sense of progression even though the organizational problems that are the raison d'etre for staff+ levels don't exist at that scale.

To say it a different way: consider hobbyist developers who have spent a lot of time developing technical skills. These folks will tend to be very good at creating greenfield apps, and depending what they do, they may also have technical chops that are applicable to large companies as well. So they may be able to be hired as L4 or L5 (Google leveling) just based on technical chops. L6+ will be tough though, unless they have very deep specialist knowledge, because the most common L6+ work is about using technical knowledge to achieve outcomes that depend on navigating multiple teams and stakeholders in a way that the solo dev never has to deal with.
arXiv replaces any URL in the text of the abstract with a link with text "this http url"; it seems the authors did not know this and just embedded a bare URL in their abstract.

Nikolai Fyodorov was first Russian Cosmist, and his real last name was Gagarin
Here it actually depends on which pseudo-private-public insurer you have. Most have age limits for coverage, the most common one being 25 or 26. The lowest seems to be 19 (what a joke, it's in the catalog for <=18), many don't cover it at all. Total cost (no discounts, since not covered) seems to be about 700-800 €.

> its easier to use without legal representation

Not really. Any corporation will be represented in an arbitration by lawyers. The arbiter will likely be a lawyer. You will be bamboozled by their arguments and the best you can hope for is to make a reasonably clear statement of your claim and hope that the arbiter doesn't agree with some technical argument the other side has.

And (I don't know if it always works this way) you will take turns speaking with the arbiter, you will not directly hear or be able to question/challenge what the the other party is saying.

The "defense" would argue that the arbitrator was mutually selected when the contract was signed, because the "plantiff" agreed to the contract terms.

The fact that the contract was non-negotiable should have made it a "contract of adhesion" where the plaintiff is recognized to have little choice in the details and the courts should provide scrutiny to ensure that they were equitable. But the supreme court has decided that "contracts of adhesion" don't really exist because you always had the choice to not have a cell phone or internet service or a job.
